it's like I needed permission from other people and that was the biggest mistake I almost made so I want to tell you this you don't need permission from anyone that you're going to make it that you're going to crush it that you're going to kill it and that you're going to become who you need to become you need to give yourself permission right now on this [Music] video hey guys what's going on Andy Elliott in this video I'm going to talk about the seven toxic habits that'll make you weak and poor these are going to
be things right now and I wrote down a couple things I put better life who in here wants to have a better life okay I know you do number two make more income who wants to make more income come on man let's make some more income how many of you guys want to make more impact and more influence on this world which means AKA you want to be a leader okay so the title of this video is seven toxic habits that will make you weak and poor now as I go through these seven I want
to tell you what I want for you right now there's a massive shortage of leadership in this world not only in the community not only in family but also in companies okay my life truly is a Ministry you say what does that mean well in church they go and they change people's lives and obviously am a Christian I love God with all my heart when I started my business my business was to change the way that I did things in life so I could help more people get their best lives so I live by a
certain standard I live by a certain way with my family my wife my kids my team and then obviously there are no limit so these seven things if you'll pay attention I will make you the greatest leader on planet Earth all right guys so number one is going to be stop trying to impress people this is the number one thing that I see that crushes other people instead of you doing something for you and what you know you need to do you're trying to impress other people so you're doing things for other people you don't
want to do that in the beginning you got to take care of yourself I need you to write this down what are my priorities what are the most important things in my life these are things that ruin your life trying to live for other people I promise you this right now if you think back over your life the times in your life that you knew you needed to do something and you wrote down what I'm going to do but then someone else influenced you to do what it is that they think you should do and
you went and did that nothing ever freaking worked I decided at 39 years old I'm 44 right now 39 years old I said dude I know what I need to freaking do like I've been alive for 39 years and I wrote it down and when I finally started to do what it was that I needed to do and I stopped impressing all these other people and the crazy thing is is that when I did what I needed to do the people that I was trying to impress they got mad at me I got successful and
those people aren't even with me no more come on man I'm guaranteeing you right now stop trying to impress other people do what it is that you know you need to do it'll make you fulfilled it'll make you proud of yourself when you look in the mirror because you know you're on the right Journey you're on the right path okay so don't try to impress other people this is the common number one problem that I see that people make all right number two this is a big one right now so write this down stop ask
asking for permission okay what does that mean write this down AKA validation so what I learned is in the beginning when I started my new business and I'm just going to use this as an example 39 years old I decided to stop being a W2 employee I started my own business I started the Elliot group and I remember that some people would be like oh dude you're going to make it you're going to kill it you're going to do so good and other people like oh my God man sales training self-development it's a saturated Market
you don't want to do that you're not going to make it you know I would say what you're doing now what you got now was a good thing it's like I needed permission from other people and that was the biggest mistake I almost made I looked in the mirror one day and I remember looking at myself and I go do I need validation from anyone else that I'm capable of pulling this off and doing this no it feels good I like it who who doesn't like someone to believe in them but you know what I
realized I didn't need validation from anybody I realized that along the way if I was going to do anything hard they were going to be people that believe in me today and probably in 6 months from now they're not going to believe in me no more and if those people believe in me today and that's the only reason why I feel good enough to go do what I'm going to go do today because they believe in me well in six months when they stop believing in me then I'm not going to believe in me no
more because I found validation in their belief and not my own so I want to tell you this you don't need permission from anyone that you're going to make it that you're going to crush it that you're going to kill it and that you're going to become who you need to become you need to give yourself permission right now on this video forgive yourself for your past forgive yourself and give yourself permission to go live a big badass life and become who you want to become right freaking now everything is from today forward write that
down from this day forward you're giving yourself permission you don't need validation from anyone else this will make you one of the most dangerous human beings on planet Earth you don't need validation from anyone I believe in you take that validation okay now go believe in yourself and let's kill it let's get to number three all right so number three is going to be stop watching the screen so much write that down stop watching the screen so much what does that mean I don't even have a phone on me but it's it's it's a phone
it's it's not even just a TV it's it's the it's the phone so people go to bed on a screen they wake up on a screen they're at work on a screen they're driving down the road in the car they're on a screen they're out at dinner with their family and they're supposed to be spending time with their wife their kids and their friends they're on a screen they're always on a screen guys screens are toxic so you got to make make sure right now if you're watching this one of the biggest death Falls of
all these of all seven of these of all seven I think the greatest one of all of them is the screen that screen instead of you living life and going out and doing what it is you need to do and getting your endorphins firing by kicking ass in life people get their endorphins fired by this screen this screen is the death of most entrepreneurs it makes you weak it will make you poor and I promise promise you if you can beat it and you can get off of it you will crush it and have a
great life so is it necessary to run your business and use your phone sometimes absolutely is it okay for you to watch 20 minutes of social media a day to get content in that makes you greater yeah is it okay for you to watch on your screen a little bit of time to train yes but get off your screen cut your screen time in half and I guarantee you're going to make more money and literally all this negative stuff is going to disappear out of your head let's get on to number four all right number
four is going to be stop being broke you say well duh no let me explain what I mean most most people they they need to make more money but at the end of the day it's not that you need to make more money you also need to stop spending Stupid Money okay so I want you to understand something in the beginning when I started getting into the self-development journey I was going through my bank account and I was literally looking for all the things that I was spending money on that was useless because I wanted
to spend that money on self-development now right and when I took a highlighter and I went through each thing I it was like 7-Eleven 78 bucks dumbass why did I spend $78 in a 7-Eleven I would go through I spent 300 bucks here in the mall didn't even need that had four pair of shoes I bought a fifth one you may say well I want to buy nice stuff hey if you want to go to another level if you want to stop being poor you got to understand once you own money money doesn't own you
no more once you can make these decisions once you can control your addictions your habits and your discipline and your focus boom you go to the next level so if you want to stop being broke which is what I'm telling you to stop being broke you got to make sure that there's making money and then there's spending money and if you want to stop being being broke I want you to go through go through your bank statement I want you to highlight everything that you can that you feel like hey I didn't have to spend
that money and stop spending it you got it and then guess what happens that money will accumulate in your account you can actually res selfinvest that into yourself or spend that into something that actually matters that's an asset or save for cash you got me okay so how can you uh stop being weak how can you stop being poor stop being broke how do you do it just make sure that making more money obviously is common sense but also stop spending money on stupid [ __ ] okay you guys got me all right let's get
on to the next one okay guys number five you know that I'm going to be a big advocate of this one and you may not want to hear this but it's the truth stop eating like crap are you guys a Ferrari are you a Bugatti are you a freaking Lamborghini what are you I mean are you a badass lifted Ford diesel let me ask you a question if you go put cheap gas in a Ford diesel what happens in a big big badass diesel what happens they don't run because diesels don't run off gas what
happens if you go buy a supercharged engine and you go freaking put 84 in it dude it ain't going to run right okay it may run and some of you guys right now you may say Andy listen I don't like it when you talk about Fitness and all this stuff let me explain how this works you got one body okay God gave you one Temple he gave you one life it's your job to take care of your body you only get one once this one's done it's done the way that you operate the way that
you run whether it's high it's low it's fast it's quick it's strong it's weak whatever it is it's all up to you based on the food that you put in your body guys one of the biggest strongest anti-aging things that you can have in your body that'll make you healthy as muscle so yes exercising and working out is obviously super important but the food that you put in your body there's your skin there's your muscle and then there's a thing in between called your fat and then there's your brain okay so you want to limit
that down okay CU you can move quicker have more agility have more energy be healthier be able to do the work that you need to do and live the lifestyle that you want and look in the mirror and be proud of yourself but then there's 's also this thing called your brain and your brain it needs good food it needs good nutrients to operate right so stop eating like crap you guys got me eat good foods you guys know about decision- making 101 cheeseburger grilled chicken okay steak okay you feel me steak steak fajitas no
you trash the freaking tortilla you just eat the steak like there's just little decisions like this how you do the little things is how the big things work out okay if you say Andy I want to be a multi-millionaire of course you do can you eat clean can you eat clean can we start here okay because that actually that that front loaded decision is actually going to play off on the backside too 5 10 15 20 30 years down the road okay so my goal is with you guys is to build you to be Legends
the greatest leaders ever you're going to have walking Billboards eat clean people respect you more you love who you are when you look in the mirror you'll be proud of yourself your brain will function better okay eat clean food you got to eat clean quit eating crap all right guys number six stop letting the world control your thoughts look I want you to write this down stop letting the world control my thoughts and then I want you write down underneath that the greatest responsibility that I have in my life is to control my thoughts that's
your greatest responsibility is to control your thoughts I'm going to give you this so you understand this this is your this is your brain this is your mind this is your mind your mind isn't this big your mind is this big your mind has 70 to 80,000 thoughts that go through today your brain your mind constantly deletes information all day long you need to understand this most people repeat Groundhog Day every single day it's a same things every day 80% of their thoughts are all negative I want you to dump out your brain I want
you to wash your brain I want you to get all these thoughts out of it and then I want you to fill it back up with good stuff positive things all that nasty cortisol stress worries anxiety dump it all out build back up with man ain't I lucky to be alive you know what there's a lot of people right now that don't have this opportunity in life you know today's their last day but this ain't my last day I'm young I'm healthy I got a lot of life left I got a good wife I got
great kids I got this awesome opportunity I can't believe I'm alive in this era you got all these thoughts right now you got these things that operate in your head that determine how your life go if if you're thinking something you're experiencing that in your life right now if it's negative you're experiencing negative if it's positive POS you're experiencing positiveness okay your mind the greatest responsibility in your life is to control your thoughts everything is happening just as it should all for good and everything is going in the direction you want to go in in
and and life is hard just be be totally aware life is hard you're going to have a lot of things that happen that weren't expected there's going to be some things that are going to happen that are just they're just they're just w't going to want to tear you apart you know what I want you to know I want you to know man this is going to give me an opportunity to to grow this is going to give me an opportunity to show myself and my family how stronger I am to show everybody an example
of what a great leader looks like this is going to give me an opportunity to trial and tribulation hardship which if I ever want a big life if I want to build a big business if I want to make a lot of money there's going to be a lot of problems so I got to make sure that I can handle these problems with peace guys the more successful you get the harder life gets and if you learn to handle this hardship with good thoughts with a good way of thinking and with a strong mind it
never gets hard I I never have worries guys I honestly am excited to solve problems entrepreneurship is problem solving so every day I have hundreds of problems that come up every one of them I'm like man I get a chance to solve this I never look at it for bad I just want to tell you if it was up to the world to control your thoughts and to tell you how to think they would absolutely have you be the most negative person on planet Earth so you have to take control of your thoughts thoughts you
have to decide to see how you're going to see life to see how this world sees you and see how you see this world your perspective I think is one of the greatest things that you can have and that you will ever have to determine if your life is good or bad or if you become successful or if you don't or if you become successful whether you keep it and you don't lose it all does that make sense so don't let this world control your mind on this video right now dump out all those thoughts
okay recreate alter your identity fill up your mind with whatever you want and by the way here's a hack if you want to fill up your mind with good thoughts plug into good information plug into leadership plug into positive stuff plug into things that make you greater does that make sense don't plug into crap and just by by plugging into it also like plugging into this right now also make sure you're plugged into good people okay you can't plug into good stuff then go be around and lose your friends that are negative that complain that
