| 0:00.0 | What is up guys you're listening to the MF CEO project I'm Andy I'm your host and I am the mother fucking CEO |
| 0:20.4 | I like to add a little different rhythm every time maybe not a whole different intro but maybe just like a little bit different |
| 0:26.6 | You're like a spoken word poet. Yeah man it's almost like it's almost like I'm trying to create a new artistic way to say it without changing it too much |
| 0:36.8 | Yeah I like it. Yeah so what's up dude? |
| 0:39.5 | Big episode. Yeah big episode post book release post book release by the way |
| 0:46.5 | Thank you guys so much for everybody who bought a copy or two or ten of the book obviously you know |
| 0:53.4 | the main mission of the book is to get it out there and start making change and if you watch the Facebook live video last week you understand that |
| 1:00.4 | But it would be nice to make certain lists like New York Times best seller Amazon best seller etc etc |
| 1:08.4 | Because it's going to help push the other content that we're going to have come out and that all falls on you guys and guys I can tell you right now we're overwhelmed with the generosity and the support behind what we've had |
| 1:21.4 | You guys are so good to us in terms of being a part of this movement and man it's it's it's it's almost surreal like how how awesome and powerful it's gotten you know |
| 1:35.4 | Yeah when we first started this thing it wasn't like there was no expectations you know what I mean we started the podcast because we were doing a book interview for an actual |
| 1:47.4 | Adult based book that we're going to release here in the next few months right I guess I just spoiled that but anyway that is how the idea for the MSEO project started and you know our goal and a lot of people who watch me on Instagram because I post the motivational |
| 2:05.4 | Staticism and motivational you know videos and etc they think that the MFCO project is all about motivation and I would argue that motivation is secondary you know motivation might come from the way I speak or the energy I put out or the |
| 2:21.4 | enthusiasm that you guys here come through but the idea of motivating someone honestly is not the point of what we're trying to do what we're trying to do is to be a vessel for change we're trying to erase the last 20 to 30 years of |
| 2:39.4 | trial and error parenting trial and error schooling and get back to the fundamental values that this country and greatness success personal fulfillment were founded on you know what it's not about you know yelling at you to do the fucking work all the time it's about thinking a certain way and looking at yourself |
| 3:01.4 | admitting to yourself you think this way and then learning how to think a different way and that's that's the goal you know and that is why we came out with the books that we did first you know we could have came out with our other books that we've written you know that are more focused around business and practical aspects and you know yes motivation and we could have done that and you know got on all the talk shows and done the whole |

| 3:55.7 | It starts before we have our parents telling us |
| 4:00.1 | that we can't do things or our teachers telling us |
