REAL AF with Andy Frisella

In the last couple weeks, a video by Simon Sinek discussing Millenials in the workplace has gone viral. In this episode, Andy Frisella interacts with Sinek's key points; sharing his thoughts on the strengths and weaknesses of the Millenial generation, as well as his insights for any employers or entrepreneurs who work with Millenials. Regardless of your age or generation, the basic principles of success and happiness remain the same: work hard, invest in deep relationships, and commit to the long haul.

It's already five days into the new year and some people who made grandiose resolutions have already compromised them. According to the MFCEO, that is exactly why they don't have the life they want - and that is entirely their fault. What is it going to take for people to understand that wanting success and being a real practitioner of success are two different things. Even if you've already screwed up your plan, stop being in love with the idea of success and start actually working toward it. Now.

"Never give up." In business and in life, we hear this a lot. But what does it take to persevere? What expectations for pursuing goals and dreams set people up for disappointment and failure. Here's the reality: anything worth doing in life is going to be very, very hard. You have to understand the mindset and the method for pressing on or you're not going to make it. In part 4 of the 4-part series Recalibrate, Andy Frisella unpacks his thoughts on the all-important quality of perseverance.

Thinking over the last year, Andy Frisella says he is incredibly grateful for the success of The MFCEO Project, as well as the successes of his other businesses. In this episode, two days before Christmas, Andy urges everyone to cultivate a positive attitude, focus on the things you are thankful for, and bring others with you on the road to success and happiness.

A few people in life are gifted with a natural talent for self-motivation. But most men and women on Earth struggle to motivate themselves. In this episode of The MFCEO Project - the third of the Recalibrate series - Andy Frisella unpacks his thoughts on overcoming the things that undermine our will to act - from self-doubt and discouragement to difficulty and defeat.

"Steve" is "the average mother f*cker." He buys all the success books. He goes to all the seminars. But nothing ever changes for him. Why? According to Andy Frisella, he doesn't have "The Intangibles." These are: heart, desire, drive, passion, intensity, a will to win. Do you have these? If you don't, nothing will ever change for you, either. If you do, you'll be part of the 1 percent that truly achieve success and greatness. Ultimately, your actions will answer that question.

What is greatness? How is a successful person different from someone who is great? Why doesn't the average person pursue greatness? What does it take to be considered great? How do you cultivate greatness in your life? In part 2 of the Recalibrate series, Andy Frisella gets more philosophical and unpacks his thoughts on a topic that is profoundly important to anyone who wants to live the best possible life.

Why do you take the time to whine and b*tch about your life? Why do you complain in person or on social media? Here's the reality: nobody cares. So why don't you take the energy that you spend (actually, waste) in complaining and channel it into something productive, like developing skills and getting sh*t done!

The MFCEO Project is all about action and execution. But that doesn't mean action without thinking or execution without reflection. In this episode of the podcast, Andy Frisella gets all philosophical and further unpacks his definition and understanding of success. This is part 1 of a 4-part series called "Recalibrate," a series meant to refresh your understanding of the core principles of success and get you reoriented and ready for the new year.

Look back at your life over the last several months. What did you accomplish? Did you stick to the resolutions you made back in January? Did you actually do the things that you planned to do or did you just talk about it? If you're looking for a reason to put off changing your situation and pursuing your best possible life, you'll always find one. Don't wait until New Year's to make a resolution. Make the resolution now--and act now.
