Welcome to the rewire podcast.

I'm your host, Ryan Stumann,

and I'm here to rewire your mind for success.

You were put on this planet for success.

You were created to succeed,

but the force of average is after you every single day,

my brothers and sisters,

and this podcast is the one thing that's designed

to help you fight the force of average and excel in

every area of your life. We're glad that you're here. Half ass is not going to cut it right now.

You see, I'm from the great state of Texas. And in Texas, we have a saying it's half ass.

You don't do, I don't know what you would do with your whole ass. I'm just saying we say half ass down here. So we say that was a half ass job. Oh, he did a half ass job of finishing up that cleanup over there. Oh, that's a half ass job of cleaning up your room. Oh, that's a half ass job of coding that shit and doing the follow-up sequence. That's just the saying that we

got here in Texas. And most people, they'll spend their whole life half-assing things, just enough

to get by, just enough to get recognition, just enough to get paid on the job, just enough to

where they get the permission to go do whatever that next thing is, just enough to where they get the permission to go do whatever that

next thing is, just enough to satisfy people as opposed to going over above and beyond.

And I remember when I was young, my pops.

And if I did some half-ass shit, he would just stay on me, a foot in my ass.

If I did something half-ass, the other half was going to get a foot in it, you know? And that was just, that was the life that I grew up living. And I watched all my friends, they would get away with doing everything half ass. And when I was a young man, I'm like, man, it's some bullshit. All my friends, they're not having to deal with the same level of adversities that i'm having to deal with they're getting away with doing half-ass shit i

don't ever get away with doing half-ass anything but then i grew up and all my friends got half-ass

jobs and half-ass houses and half-ass suburbs and i start thinking man you know i'm over here putting

all in.
