Summary

Successful people don't become successful by accident, they get there by setting a specific standard for themselves and refusing to accept anything less!

In this episode, we talk about the importance of having defined standards tailored to your vices, needs, and potential. Other topics include our thoughts on challenges like Andy Frisella's 75 Hard and Trevor's opinion on the show "Undercover Billionaire."

Cowley. As always, Kilo G. What's up? What's up? Guys, today the topic is living your life

0:16.2

by a certain set of standards, right? Regulating your life by living your life through standards, right?

0:23.7

The majority of people don't have any standards. They don't set expectations for themselves.

0:29.1

1:18.7

I would hit that standard. And because I'm going in with the intention to do something. And every
