Speaker 1:

Oh, my goodness, that is such a dope intro. Anyway, welcome Bizzac to the Come On, you know pod. I'm gonna try to change my voice up, do that maskin' thing. Like an actor. Like I dig deep, I do different things. No, I'm not an actor, I'm just a regular person talking on the microphone, but anyway.

Speaker 1:

So today's show is about persistence. I have a million subscribers and subscriber number 200,047 and 341 ask me to do a show about persistence and maintain a persistence and how to keep going when nothing is going right, nothing is going your way. So I will do that because I listened to my subscribers. Dude, I have like negative 10 subscribers, like I owe stuff to people, but I'm gonna do it, I'm gonna do what I'm doing, but yeah, so anyway, like that actually is a very serious topic and I commend people that want to dig deep in that topic being persistent, because persistence is also a means to an end.

Speaker 1:

So this is my view whatever you're going through, if it's new, old, hard, easy, persistence is is a means to an end, it is all bet persistence in the right direction, because you can be digging and digging down. You know what I mean Digging straight down. But we don't want to do that. So my advice because I am a genius within a genius, within a genius, within a comedian, within a jokester is you have that end state, you have that vision, you have. You have that vision as a goal, you have that end state as a goal and persistence is just a mean. So it's like hey, I know I need to keep running five miles a day, because if I do that, you know five times five, you know I run five times. I run five miles a day and I run, you know, five days a week. If I do that it'll add up. But I know my end state, like envision your end state and embrace your end state.

Speaker 1:

So if your end state involves people, that's another story, because you cannot predict people. You can understand people, you can know that if you do something, people will react a certain way, but you can't predict it. You can't say, hey, if I, if I do this five times a day, that person will will end up doing this Like. Life doesn't work that way. Life works like this you get what you get, you adjust to what you adjust to. If you run five times a day or five miles a day for five days a week and you know, like what you're burning or what you're gaining, you can potentially predict your results. But you cannot predict results with people, because people, everyone adjusts to each other. If that, if that makes sense, so you have to. If you're in a mindset where like, hey, nothing's going right, you can't control it, if it's everything that you can't control, don't worry about it going right, worry about you, Worry about which direction are you going in. It's like, hey, if this didn't work, shift to this. If this didn't work, shift to that. If that didn't work, shift back to this.

Speaker 1:

What is your end state? I want to do this. I want to lose weight. I want to get better. I want to be smarter, I want to be you know. I want to shoot better. I want to understand people's emotions better. You can do it.

Speaker 1:

Why is this a motivation? I'm not a motivational. I'm the opposite. I'm an anti-motivational. I'm a protagonist. Straight up, pull the rug under your feet, talk. That's the thought. It's not a motivated, that's an anti-motivational, anti, anti, whatever you want, I'm anti it.

Speaker 1:

But I do respect persistence, I really do. But it is a means to an end and you know my perspective is you have to have the ends in means. That's town, right. You have to have the end in mind, if that makes sense. Like, if nothing is going right, you are expecting it to go right. In your perspective, things are going to go how they go.

Speaker 1:

Do what you need to do for you in a way to receive or get what you got. Like what? This is like a second series show in a row and I'm over it. Well, I'm not over it, but I'm dropping that knowledge, that knowledge, if you will. But I think the essence of the subject is how to keep it moving.

Speaker 1:

When things aren't positive, make them positive, because there's positive in everything, because if there's negative, there's positive. It's like philosophical, like what are you saying? If I get punched in the face? What's the positive in that? Well, the positive is you experience a punch in the face. Not many people have experienced that. I have. It's not fun, but you know what it feels like, so you know what you could take. You know what you could handle. So you know how to adjust. So you know what you need to do. Like, find out what you need to do, put that train on the train tracks, chew, chew, chew, chew it up and keep it moving, keep moving. I'm about look, I'm about to get straight up. I'm about to toss this mic. Toss it, this mic. Then I got to get a new mic. I got to wait for Amazon to be annoying all that, but anyway it persist.

Speaker 1:

So, to anyone and all of y'all that are going through things, it seems like it's a black cloud over your head. I've been there, I'm human. It happens you got to push through, push through, Push through, because all you got is you people. We can't rely on plants, can't rely on animals. Just go through it, go through it. And if you haven't experienced something as tough as whatever you're going through and I'm speaking in generalities right now, but yeah, I mean, it's relatable I'm talking about social life, I'm talking about personal life, I'm talking about professional life, I'm talking about the matrix, I'm talking about all of the above. You can push through, because all you have is yourself, people, your loved ones, and pull them in. Pull them in Solicit wisdom, knowledge, all that stuff, and that's all right.

Speaker 1:

A book, a book, will be like pssh get out of here, I know it. That's the name of my book. Get out of here, I know it'll be Oprah's top two. I love it. I love it. Get out of here. I knew it. But anyway, persistence it's not about persistence, it's about you. It's about you being persistent with your end state in mind and following the right path. Because, like I said earlier I think I said earlier you can dig. If you keep digging, you could dig, but if you're digging down, then you're digging down. You got to know which way you're digging. Dig up that may not work that well because I don't know, you got gravity, you got other stuff, but just know which direction you're going in, pick a direction, stick with it. And so I got it. That was straight.
