Preview of the final episode.
What Makes Your Work Worthwhile?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO316
What makes your work worthwhile? Is it only worldwide influencers who make 9-figures that should feel good about themselves & their lives? Or can you feel great about life if you're a blue collar worker, a teacher, or someone who doesn't even earn $45,000 in income? Whether it's people who think "happiness is the new rich" or people who equate being famous with being impactful, there's a lot of confusion out there about how to evaluate the worth of a job & the value of a human life.
What Does It Really Mean To Be Woke?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO315
Are you "woke?" That's a phrase that's thrown around a lot these days. Sometimes it's used in politics to talk about people who say they really care about racism & injustice & sometimes it's used for dudes who think they've uncovered a worldwide conspiracy that nobody else knows about! But what does it really mean to be "woke," to have your eyes opened to what life is all about & what it takes to be happy & successful?
Overcoming The Fears That Keep Us Ordinary, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO314
I recently had a friend admit to me that he didn't feel "worthy of success." The reality is...a lot of people feel like that. They feel like a fraud. They feel like they are running behind. They feel like there is some "secret formula" that's complicated & too sophisticated for them to understand. Listen...all of us feel lost & like we don't know what we're doing. In this episode, I talk about how to overcome that & we share OG stories about the early days of MFCEO. (Oh...& we announce contest w
The Key To Ultimate Happiness, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO313
What is the key to ultimate happiness? Ask most people in the culture today & they'll say "the freedom to do whatever you want" & to indulge yourself any way you want...to live a life of leisure, comfort, ease, whatever. The reality is, that is absolutely, 100 percent dead wrong. In fact, the answer is pretty much the exact opposite of that. In this episode, I talk about the key to ultimate happiness & why it's ---not coincidentally--the key principle of my program, 75Hard.

Go Hard In The Mother F*cking Paint, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO305
The longer I live, the more I believe that people's success is determined by the questions they ask themselves. There's a bunch of people out there who really aren't succeeding & really aren't getting the results they say they want, because they don't have the right answer to the question, "will I put in the work when no one's looking?" And there are other people who are paralyzed with fear & regret because they constantly ask "what if?" Listen, regardless of the question, the answer is always G
The Truth About Loyalty, Entitlement, and Other Sh*t That Is Ruining Your Life, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO304
It's amazing to me how most people have an excuse for why they aren't winning. They have every tool...resource...opportunity. But there's a factor in the way they think & how they operate that is going to ruin them. Our culture is cursed & the mindset of the majority is hellbent on mediocrity. As sick & tired as I am about all this, I can't stop caring, & I won't stop working to make sure that the people who really, truly want to succeed know the hard truth about what it's going to take to do th

THE 24-HOUR RULE OF BRAGGING: Why It's Essential To Your Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO301
If you could take a time machine back to your biggest win in life…would you? If you’re thinking “Of course!

This rule protects you from mediocrity and helps you move on from massive mistakes.
Why "Winning" Isn't Enough, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO300
Just "winning" isn't enough. "Winning" doesn't earn you glory or the right to brag. You have to DOMINATE. That's the mentality you have to have to truly be successful on an elite level...& this isn't an ego thing, either. It's not about just trying to prove you are way better than somebody else. It's not about feeling good because you decimated your competition. It actually has to do with YOU...your potential..& whether or not you die feeling proud of how you lived.
How To Be Who You Really Claim To Be, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO299

Do You Feel Alone?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO297
Do you feel alone? I’ve met thousands of people who tell me they feel isolated & detached from average society because they personally have extremely high standards, a killer competitive attitude, & an extreme commitment to making the most of their lives...& it feels like nobody else does.

Why Your Wins Are Actually Destroying Your Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO295
Every now and then, average people do win. But they don't keep winning...they don't make a lifestyle out of winning...because they make a huge mistake. In their moments of victory, they do something that causes them to lose focus & actually ends up being counter-productive to their long-term success. True winners don't do this. That's why all they do is win. What is it? Take a listen & find out.
The False Choice At the Heart of Failed Lives, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO294
As a guy who started with $0 in the bank 20+ years ago & now personally earns well into 8 figures a year, I've been around the broke & the ballers, losers & winners...& I can tell you this: those who never experience all the valuable things in life...the stuff money can buy & the stuff it can't...definitely suffer from an either/or mentality.

There are days that nothing in you wants to do anything productive. You have these huge goals, but you feel like being a lazy f*ck. You’d rather lay on the couch & eat donuts instead of run 20 miles.

REDEFINE IMPOSSIBLE ft. James Lawrence, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO289
What do you think is impossible? Pretty much everybody told my guest & friend James Lawrence that doing 50 Iron Mans in 50 days in 50 different states was impossible. But he did it. Not because he is a gifted athlete or had access to special resources, but because he learned how to create a mental toughness that is 1000 times stronger than iron. This episode will show you that you really can crush the absurdly huge goals that everybody else thinks you can't.
Caring Is Not a F*cking Buzzword, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO288
“You have to care about your customers.” If you’re in business, you hear it & say it all the time. But the reality is, deep down most people thinks it’s just a buzzword...a catchphrase entrepreneurs use to feel good about themselves. But I can tell you from building my business into 9-figures, it’s not a cheesy cliché...& you need to understand why it’s an essential key to dominating sales.

SUNDAY SERMON: Cash Flow, Character, and Creating Amazing Connections, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO284
There's an enormous amount of greed & insanity in the whole entrepreneur & success space. Do you really want to be a part of it? Do you really want to promote it in any way? I don't. That's why I've stepped away from speaking at most of the conferences & want nothing to do with the shady parts of that culture. What all of us should want...is to make money the right way (which is the most effective way) & to learn how to listen to people in a way that makes a huge impact on their lives.

How to Live So That No One Has Power Over You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO281
When someone does something really stupid or scandalous and gets caught...how do you respond?

How you choose to respond to people who do shady things - including shady things to you - will determine whether you live your life enslaved to hate & bitterness...or whether you live your life with freedom and power.
Struggle Is Your Privilege, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO280
What's your attitude when you go through tough times? Do you think, "this isn't fair" or "I wish this wasn't happening to me"? To the average person, struggle is something to be avoided. But elite achievers find benefits in being knocked around by life. In fact...far from being averse or ashamed of struggle, they embrace it. They take pride in it. They think of it as a privilege. And that's why they always power through. How can you develop this mindset? That's what I talk about in this episode.

SUNDAY SERMON: How to Disagree Without Despising Each Other, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO274
Why is that people nowadays think that if we disagree, we have to hate each other?

There's a way to disagree - even strongly - with one another without despising each other. That's what we talk about in today's Sunday Serm
You Always Have a Choice, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO273
Why is it that some people experience terrible, evil things in their lives & they become monsters themselves...while other people go through just the same kind of suffering & sh*t & they are transformed into amazing, good people? I get it. It is hard.to take the negatives of life & convert them into positives. It's hard to be wronged & still do the right thing.

The Only Way Elite Achievers Want To Be Coached, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO270
How do you respond to people who are leading or coaching you? The reality is, your response to guidance & instruction is what is going to determine whether you're an average person or an elite achiever.

Two Things You Can Do Right Now To Be Happier and More Successful, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO267
One of the biggest things I've struggled with over the course of my life is having that little voice inside me that says that everyone else is smarter, more talented, or just plain better at [fill in the blank].

The 3 Steps to Talking Yourself Into Total Domination, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO266
Every day there are people who don’t achieve the goals that they could achieve if they just acted. In almost every case, the reason they didn’t act was because they talk themselves out of it.

In this episode, I tell you what they do to dominate.
WHAT IF: The Least Asked Question of the Most Successful People, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO265
"What if?" is a question I hear people asking all the time...people who are in the middle of their entrepreneurial journey...or people who are in the midst of trying to accomplish a big goal.

SUNDAY SERMON: Beer, Bulldogs, Burt Reynolds, & Becoming a Better, More Balanced Person, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO263
Beer. Burt Reynolds. Knowing when to serve others & when to stand up for yourself. What my old bulldog Oscar taught me about life. How Vaughn the Impaler's yellow lab saved his little girl.

The #1 Most Effective Motivator That People Never Use, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO262
The so-called "gurus" tell you to set attainable goals, but I don't agree with that. I think you should set huge, unrealistic goals. Because if you fall short of those goals, it's massively disappointing. Those unrealized expectations hurt & that's a good thing, because pain teaches. In fact, pain does more than teach. If we use it, it can drive us to success like nothing else can.
SUNDAY SERMON: How to Profit From Your Past, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO261
It seems like everyday I get somebody emailing me or messaging me complaining or beating themselves up about something they said or did in the past. Part of me gets that, but most of me doesn't. Complaining about the past is illogical. Beating yourself up about your past is pointless. Instead, you should be using your past to benefit your present & your future. How do the happiest, most satisfied people do that? That’s what we talk about in today’s Sunday Sermon.
The #1 Thing You're Doing That Is Sabotaging Your Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO260
If it's true that everyone has the potential to be successful, why aren't the majority of people successful? It's not a matter of education or intelligence or natural giftedness. It's a matter of the will. Successful people are willing to do something that most people are not. They are willing to look bad...really bad...on their way to getting good at something & becoming someone who is truly great. Unsuccessful people aren't like this. The minute they look or feel stupid...they quit.
ASK THE MFCEO: Another Q&A Episode, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO259
People always have lots of questions for me, about business, self-development, or whatever. So we decided to do another Q&A episode.

This is super practical stuff, so listen & learn.
SUNDAY SERMON: Desire, Dissatisfaction, and Wrestling with Restlessness, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO258
I’m finding it common to run into people who think they have found their purpose in life, but are still struggling with dissatisfaction on a daily basis.

Vaughn, Tyler & myself talk about reasons for restlessness & dissatisfaction & what to do about it. If this is something you struggle with, just know this: YOU'RE NORMA
CLIMB THE PYRAMID: The Plan for Powering Through to the Top, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO257
What's the #1 key to success? People want to act like it's mysterious. Gurus who don't know sh!t want to complicate it & make the answer sexier than it really is. The fact is, the secret is simple: DON'T QUIT. The people who succeed in life...the people who advance up the pyramid of success..are people of endurance. They are patient, power through pain after pain, & adjust & adapt & improve themselves...until they reach the top.
SUNDAY SERMON: The Common Decency That Makes You An Uncommon Dominator, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO256
Whatever ever happened to common decency? There are things that everybody used to know & do...how to treat one another, how to talk to one another, how to be a good person..that hardly anyone knows & does anymore. That's the bad news. The good news is that if YOU know & do these things, you'll be rare. You'll stand out. Having good manners & being a decent person will help you dominate.
The Upside of Rock Bottom, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO255
Have you ever hit rock bottom? Are you hitting rock bottom now? I get it. I've been there...in business & in life. Sometimes it's been my fault. Sometimes it hasn't. Well, listen...I can't explain this, but I've experienced it & I can tell you it's true: there's something really good about hitting rock bottom. In this episode, I give you three reasons why & urge you to wake up, rise up again, & dominate.
PASSION AND PURPOSE: What The "Gurus" Won't Tell You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO254
There's a ton of misinformation & flat-out lies out there about how to live with purpose & passion. The average "guru" on the internet misleads people into thinking they're weird because they struggle with doubt, uncertainty & dissatisfaction. In this episode, I share the real truth about purpose & passion, walking you through questions to ask yourself, expectations to adjust, & practical habits to develop that will help you operate more confidently & intentionally in every area of your life.
SUNDAY SERMON: What's Wrong With the World Today?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO253
What's wrong with the world today? Like you, I get on the internet & social media & think, "WTF?" Like...it literally seems like society has become an insane asylum & the lunatics are running the place. Everybody is angry & resentful at everybody else. Well I heard a great story that provides a two word answer for what's wrong with the world. If we take that answer seriously, we'll all go a long way in fixing society...and our own lives.
If You're Not Doing What You Can, You'll Never Do What You Want, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO252
Everybody has dreams for their future. But not everybody understands that what you hope to do on a much higher level later, you can begin to do right now. The guy who wants to someday speak to millions can give a talk to his 7 employees today. The girl who wants to perform on stage in Nashville someday can sing at a local country bar this weekend. Bottom line: when it comes to your dreams, if you're not doing what you can do now, you'll never do what you want to do later.
SUNDAY SERMON: How to Become Someone People Would Die For, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO251
How do you become someone people would die for? In the age of social media, we talk about having "friends." But that term has become cheap. We think that if someone follows our page or likes our post, we're "friends." Not hardly. Real friends are a positive force in your life, energizing, truthful, supportive, and fiercely loyal. We all need real friendships because we can't do life by ourselves or succeed on our own. But if good friendships are what we want, a good friend is what we need to bec
Two Things You Can Do Right Now To Be Happy, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO250
Most people talk about happiness as if it's this mystical, mysterious force that you have no control over. That is 1000 percent false. Like so many other things in this world, happiness is something you have to earn. It is the result of actions you take. In this episode, I drop two practical things you need to DO...two practical things everybody CAN do...to earn the right to be happy.

In this episode, he shares his story & we riff about everything from establishing credibility & authority in your industry to the leadership skills it takes to manage people who are exceptionall
Don't Discount Yourself, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO248
"Know your worth." That's a phrase I can't stand, because most of the time, people talk about how "worthy" they are when they haven't done anything to justify that claim. But at the other end of the spectrum are people who have a lot to offer, but they don't realize it & take advantage of it. You need to resist the temptation to "discount" yourself in business & life & "price" yourself more fairly & generously. Because if you do bring something worthwhile to the world, you deserve to benefit fro
How Perfectionism Sabotages Your Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCE0247
I've quoted Lombardi on the podcast before: "chase perfection." Problem is, most people emphasize the second word when the focus is really on the first. Perfection is an impossibility. We're supposed to chase it, not expect it. That's sounds counter-intuitive to a commitment to excellence, but it's not. In fact...perfectionism actually undermines excellence. In this episode, I tell you how & describe a better way of thinking & operating: one that embraces the chaotic process that produces succ
Everybody Wants To Go To Heaven, But Nobody Wants to Die, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO246
Most people who want to be millionaires don't see the connection between today & someday. Young kids don't think that killing it at their job at Burger King has anything to do with making millions in the future. Adults don't think how they cut their grass or wipe their @ss has anything to do with achieving their "dream life." The people who *actually* become wealthy are different. They recognize the link between now & later & they make every effort & sacrifice RIGHT NOW. They die to live the go
The Secrets of Successful Social Media Advertising, ft. Billy Gene Is Marketing, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO245
There are a lot of eyeballs on the internet, 24/7, so if you're an entrepreneur & you're not capturing their attention, you're leaving income on the table.

FORGIVENESS: A Surprising Key to Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO243
Fifteen years ago today, I was lying face-down on a street in Springfield, Missouri, in a pool of my own blood. Just a few seconds before that, I felt the excruciating pain of getting stabbed multiple times. Bottom line: a dude tried his best to kill me. So...what would you do if that happened to you? There's not a person alive who hasn't been hurt by someone. How you handle your emotions & respond to that hurt will determine the quality of your life & relationships & the things you're able to a
F*ck Your Affirmations, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO242
What’s the #1 lie of our society & what would your life look like if you completely rejected it? So many people out there right now are talking about how everybody needs to “love themselves” & keep telling themselves that…“You’re beautiful & worthy & good enough." But here's the problem: for those statements to be true, there has to be a change in mindset & a commitment to act & live in a certain way. Bottom line: you aren't entitled to feel good about yourself. You have to earn it.
The #1 Daily Habit of Those Who Dominate, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO240
So you say you're ready to fulfill your own true potential & achieve success & become a millionaire. That’s sounds so bad*ss, doesn't it? So sexy. So cool. Why wouldn’t everyone want to go all in on something like that? Because...the ACTUAL pursuit of success begins & ends with a principle that is totally unsexy & totally uncool, but utterly indispensable. What is it? Listen & find out.
The Small Town Secrets That Drive Big-Time Success , with Andy Frisella - MFCEO239
Everyone associates the internet & social media with the future of business, but the reality is that these things have actually turned back the clock on all of us.

In this episode, I tell you exactly how to do that.
How to Get Everyone Talking about You and Your Brand, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO238
How do you get everyone to talk about you & your brand? A lot of people out there are trying hard to convince me to post about their product or snap a photo of me wearing their swag. They are handing out thousands of t-shirts to influencers & others to get a mention on social media. The truth is there's a way to get people to automatically, naturally, enthusiastically promote your brand, your product, your service...YOU. How do you do that? Listen to this episode to find out.

How to Befriend Winners and People of Influence, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO236
"You are who you hang out with." We've heard that time & again, but until you take seriously the essential connection between your social life & your success, you're not going fulfill your potential. Bottom line: who you choose as your close friends matters. What peer group you're a part of affects your mind, your character, the amount of money in your bank account...everything. You need to level up your inner circle & cut out negative influences (even family) & in this episode, I tell you how.
How to Feel Better About Your Life Immediately, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO235

How to Deal with the Highs and Lows, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO234
Any person's life, no matter if they are "successful" or not, is going to have ups and downs. If you're an entrepreneur, you can almost guarantee that you're going to go through a regular cycle of feeling good, like you're making progress, but then feeling like sh*t, like you & all your plans are falling apart & doomsday is coming. You need to know this is natural & normal...and the key is to learn a method of powering through these times & executing when your feelings are battling against you.
Dominating > Winning, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO233
Why do you so often fall short of getting what you want, even when you go out and work hard? How is it possible that men like Nick Saban & Bill Belichick don't just win games & championships, but have established themselves as titans & gods even among the extremely successful? The answer is simple. It all comes down to standards & expectations.
Play For Blood, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO232
"Just quit the job you hate & do what you love." We hear that all the time, don't we? But that's terrible advice. Because in order to get the opportunity to do something you love, you're going to have to do something you hate...for a long time. In this episode, I talk about the process that everyone who starts from zero & builds 7,8, & 9-figure enterprises KNOWS you have to go through. And I talk about the motive & mindset that drives the person who, when everyone else has quit, is the last one
Is It Better To Be Famous or Impactful?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO231
There's a question that I think – if you answer it rightly – will get you straight on what you’re doing with your business, your brand….even your whole life.

The 4 Steps to a Perfect Day Every Day, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO230
How do you make every day great? Or even perfect? There are four steps. They involve productivity, learning, gratitude, & enjoying things that money can't buy.

Stop Counting Other People's Money, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO229
Too many people are overly invested in the lives of others. They wonder how much money other people make. They compare their lives and success to what they see posted on Facebook and Instagram. Not only is this unfair to you, it will also destroy your ability to make something valuable out of your own life.
The Greatest Thing To Come Out of France Besides French Fries, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO228
I’m not the most multi-cultural person on the planet, but I did recently learn something about French culture that might actually be better than French fries. It's a concept the French came up with way back in the 1800s...a way of thinking about life & the responsibility we have to LIVE IT. It's the mindset of any person who rises from the ashes, who goes "from rags to riches", and it's why kids born into poor, f*cked up families can still become the most powerful & influential people on the pla
Harnessing Humanity: The Key to Building a BILLION Dollar Brand, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO227
What's the key to building a billion dollar brand? What's going to give you that edge over your competition? The so-called "gurus" will tell you it's the latest hi-tech silver bullet...that new platform or software that will make everything easy & efficient & will streamline & automate some aspect of your business so that customers will just come rolling in. But that's the true. The key is not easy or efficient, but it costs a lot less money & will make you FAR more. What it is? Listen & find ou
Power is YOUR Obligation, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO226

The Top 5 Ways to Overcome Social Anxiety in Sales, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO225

3 Things You Need To Get Your Customers To Trust You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO224

CEO: The Disposition is More Important Than the Position, with Andy Frisella - 223
Whenever I tell people that they need to carry themselves with confidence and act like the MFCEO of their own lives, I always get someone who says something like this: “That’s easy for you to say, Andy. Because you really are a CEO. It’s easy to walk around with some swag in life when you actually hold a position with some status.” They don’t get it. The disposition comes before the position. In this episode, I explain what that means and why it's critical to your success.
ARETE: The Heart of 100-0, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO222

Listen like your life depended on it...because it does.
Make Decisions & Keep Moving Forward, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO220

How to Work with Your Weaknesses, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO219
All the so-called "experts" tell us to ignore our weaknesses and focus on our strengths. There's truth in that, but not across the board. The reality is, we need to determine whether our weaknesses are just inconvenient annoyances, or whether they are something that will destroy our business or life, if we don't do something about it. There's a process to dealing with our weaknesses, and there's a way that a good leader helps others deal with theirs. That's what this episode is about.
Tell The F*cking Truth, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO218
What's keeping you from being successful is your inability and lack of capacity to tell the truth. Throughout your day, you have the opportunity to say the things that people need to hear, but you don't do it. You don't want to hurt people's feelings. You don't want them to be mad at you. Whatever the reason, you buffer what you say or don't say it at all. But until you learn to speak the truth clearly and directly, you're never going to be the type of person who becomes wealthy or successful.

How to Create The Life You Want, ft. Charlie Jabaley, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO216

How to "Find" Yourself, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO215
The average person approaches the whole concept of “finding yourself” in a passive way. Truly successful people know that “figuring out” who you are meant to be isn’t an issue of figuring out anything at all. It’s a decision. You decide who you are and order your life to reflect that decision. You create the character. You put on the clothes. You go through the motions. You visualize it until you realize it.
Coaching Up the Winners: An MFCEO Q&A, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO214
I’ve told you guys that my early years of business were rough. I made every mistake possible.I felt like an idiot working hard and getting no results. I hated it. So at some point I made a decision that when I “made it,” I was going to help people through those rough early years of entrepreneurship. In today's episode, I sit down with 7 entrepreneurs - the winners of our MFCEO testimonial contest - to answer their questions and provide some direction. They asked great question you're asking too.
THE GRIM REAPER OF DREAMS: Selective Urgency, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO213
So many people wait and wait and wait…to make a change…to get their sh*t together…to take advantage of an opportunity. They don't act with urgency until it's too late...and they suffer the consequences. But successful people are different. They live every day with urgency...even when they are way ahead! In this episode, I talk about how people suffer from "selective urgency," how to identify it, how to avoid it, and what to do in place of it...so that you can cultivate the habits high earners po
What Do You Expect To Happen?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO211
I can tell you from personal experience most people get exactly what they expect. Not what they want. Not what they say they want. They don't get what they deserve.THEY GET WHAT THEY EXPECT. What is that supposed to mean? In this episode, I explain this concept, why it’s important and how to apply it.
Why Millennials Are Failing, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO209
What's wrong with Millennials? I have built a strong, multi-million dollar brand, working almost exclusively with Millennials. Millennials are doing some badass sh*t. That said, they do have one downfall. They have an issue with patience. In this episode, I talk about how they - and you - can overcome that issue by developing "aggressive patience," while is a key to dominating everything in life.
Only Three Types of People: Which One Are You?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO208
There are 3 types of people: Number 1, Number 2, and Number 3. Most people are Number 3. They aren’t extraordinary in any way, but can perform basic tasks. Number 2 is good, but not great. Number 1? Those are the type who demonstrate initiative, creativity, and execution. They are rare and valuable. They get paid extremely well because they deserve it. They have the life they want because they earned it. In this episode, I talk about how to manage all three types and how to become a Number 1.
It's Time to Draw a Line in the Sand, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO207
Can you draw a line in the sand? Can you decide that f*cking enough is enough and that the change you need to make is far more important than the sacrifice it will take to make it? The problem is, too many people can’t do that. Too many people think they can make endless compromises with themselves, and that they have plenty of time to get around to the life they want. F*ck that! They don’t. Successful people know that. And they resolve to cut the bullsh!t and get serious: Immediately.
Multi-Millionaire Habits: Do You Have Them? ft. Dean Graziosi, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO206
Years before all entrepreneurs were using electronic media to promote their businesses…years before the bar was lowered WAY down and anybody could pitch themselves as a expert, coach, or guru…there was an elite group of trailblazers who built real businesses, impacted millions of lives, and created massive amounts of wealth. They became legends of success. Dean Graziosi is one of them. In this episode, he and I cover everything you need to know about how successful people think and act.
One Word You're Not Saying That's Keeping You Unhappy, Underperforming, and Missing Opportunities, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO205
So many of you struggle with saying a word that so many of the people around you need to hear. If you learned to say this word, you would release so much of the frustration that you've internalized. If you learned to say it, people would respect you. You'd gain credibility. You'd gain confidence. Everything from your leadership to your productivity would improve. So what's the word?
What Is Really Holding You Back?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO204
One thing I’ve learned is that people are almost always wrong about why they aren’t succeeding in business (and life). They think they’re not a “born leader.” They think they aren’t selling because their product or service isn’t priced low enough. They’re worried that if they really put themselves into their brand, it won’t fly with people. The truth is, problems can be traced to flaws in how you operate as a person. In this episode, I talk about what those are and how you can get
One Year From Today: Where Will You Be?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO203
I can’t tell you how often I hear people say, “I really mean it this time! This year is going to be different.” But then there's always a reason why it isn't. Listen: Are you in love with the idea of success? Or do you love actual success? The reality is, success takes sacrifice, time, and the willingness to make tough decisions. But it can be done. It’s hard, but not impossible. In this episode I challenge you to have a drastically different year in a very specific way.
How to 100% Guarantee Success in Anything, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO202
Can you 100% guarantee success in anything? Yes. And it doesn’t mean that you have to work so many hours that you never sleep. What it does mean is that you identify the critical tasks that have to be completed TODAY. There’s no better day than the first day of the new year to review the system – the tool – that has helped me complete critical tasks and become rich and successful. If you faithfully and consistently use the tool, you can become rich and successful, too.
Why 2018 Won't Be Your Year, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO201
At the end of every year, people find excuses for why they didn't do what they PROMISED themselves they were going to do. But then they say sh*t like, "2016 was practice. 2017 was a warm-up. Now 2018 is game time!" Seriously? What a joke. They aren't going to make a change. They aren't really going to accomplish anything. And neither are you...but it's probably not because you're lazy. It's something else. In this episode, I tell you what it is--and how, if you really want to crush the new yea

You can develop the same drive for success as The Greatest of All Time…elite athletes like Kobe Bryant, Dwyane Wade, and even Michael Jordan. There is zero reason you can’t be a Hall of Fame level performer in everything you do in life. That’s what my friend Tim Grover says, and he should know. He is the one of the most revered mental toughness and performance coaches in history. Those guys I just mentioned? They chose to work with him. In this episode, Tim and I talk about how YOU can be like
Why Your Goals Should Embarrass You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO198
You know how many people who fully committed themselves to becoming a billionaire AT LEAST ended up becoming a millionaire or multi-millionaire? Every one of them. But most people don't get it. Most people still set "small realistic goals." You can't be like that if you want the kind of life that people would kill for. You have to redefine what's "realistic" and learn to visualize what's possible, which is every f*cking thing you can dream up. So set massive f*cking goals!
Creativity, Conflict, and the Art of Making Millions ft. Randall Pich, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO197
What’s your excuse for not making millions? My friend Randall Pich was raised by his mom in extreme poverty, in one of the most dangerous parts of the country. Now he’s the very wealthy founder of multiple brands, most notably Live Fit Apparel, a top social media influencer, and a model for how to build an enthusiastic following around an in-demand brand. In this episode, we talk about the connections between creativity and business, and how these things apply to the art of making money.
Money, God, and Maxing Out ft. Ed Mylett, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO196
How does the story unfold for someone who is pursuing their million dollar dreams? What are the stages of success and the critical moments along the way?

Ed Mylett, one of the wealthiest, most successful guys I've ever had on the show, shares his life story and lessons on money, God, and "maxing out." Ed is the head of World Financial Group, a multi-million dollar financial organization.
Feeling Like a Fraud? Here's How to Stop, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO195
When you begin developing into the person that you know you really are - and are meant to be - people close to you don't always take it well. They push back. They mock you. They laugh at you. When that happens, most people (you?) feel like a fraud and don't know how to power through the resistance they experience. I know. I've been there. But I figured out how to outlast that backlash, and in this episode, I tell you how you can, too.
Chess Not Checkers: How to Live With Intent to Build Your Ultimate Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO194
A lot of people spend exorbitant amounts of time wondering what other people have that they don't. Especially when we are in the beginning of our success journey. I know. I used to do the same thing! In this episode, I nail down the specific action that successful people (in any area of life) do that unsuccessful people don't. I guarantee it will surprise you to find out what it is!
Comfort Isn't Comfort, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO193
Many people in the world are in a situation that they find very, very comfortable. Maybe they are making enough money, good enough shape, decent personal relationships. Their lives aren't terrible, but they are also not great. So they get into this mentality of not really being motivated to change the status quo. The irony is that this comfort zone is actually uncomfortable. In this episode, I tell you what that means, and why you definitely want to push yourself beyond your comfort level.
F*ck Your Moral Victory, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO192
Yes, you learn from losses. But you shouldn't celebrate losses as if they are moral victories. That's not the mindset that is going to propel you to the highest levels of success. True winners hate losing of any kind. You can't just console yourself with the "I did my best" mantra. That is a cop out. It's about going for the W: Every. Single. Time.
Droppin' Bombs and Talking Training ft. Brad Lea, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO191
Brad Lea is the founder of LightspeedVT, an interactive learning software, and a veteran marketer and training expert. In what may be our funniest episode in months, we sat down and talked about the building blocks of training your team (and yourself): great content, repetition, role playing and real life application, and accountability. This conversation is full of insight (and laughs).
Impact Over Income ft. Navy SEAL J.P. Dinnell, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO190
J.P. Dinnell is a Navy SEAL, business consultant, and Jocko Willink's partner at Echelon Front. In one of the best podcasts we've ever done, he and I talk about his SEAL training, his experience fighting in the battle of Ramadi, and lessons he's learned in war that very much apply to achieving success in business and real life. This is a special podcast. If you don't come away amazed by the insight and motivated by the stories, there's something wrong with you.
How to Increase Your Value Every Day, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO189
The most important thing you can do to achieve success is commit yourself to self-development. How many books have you read? What have you taught yourself lately? It is nobody's responsibility but yours to put good sh*t in your brain. There is no excuse you can make to not take your own improvement seriously. In this episode, I tell you what has worked for me and what can work for you.
Legacy: Our Obligation, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO188
Buckle up: this is a pretty wide-ranging conversation about everything that is going on with me right now, the vision I have for transforming the lives of the younger generation, and the plans we have for providing tools for REAL entrepreneurs who want to build a business and make millions of dollars. (I also throw in my thoughts on something essential to entrepreneurial success: the importance of recognizing the lifetime value of a customer.)
Conflict Creates You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO187
How you view conflict in your life has so much to do with what energy you're putting out, what progress you're making, and how far along you're going to get. What makes movies and books so exciting is the conflict! Yet people have such a terrible view of it. But if you want to be successful, you have to change your perspective about it. In fact, you have to come to believe that conflict is actually what creates the greatness in you.
4 Principles That Drive Social Media Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO186
Whether you're trying to build your personal brand or build your business, social media is huge. But it's amazing how many people spin their wheels on platforms like Instagram don't get any return on their investment of time and energy. That's understandable. What worked just last year won't work now. But I've spent a ton of time figuring out the principles that drive social media success both now and in the immediate future.
100-0: The 2-Minute Drill, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO185
I am so proud and grateful for the community that has built up around The MFCEO Project podcast. The people who listen to this podcast understand that life is about dominating everything you do, about kicking @ss, stepping on throats, and running up the score. So we decided to do something to step up our level of engagement with you and show our gratitude to you for being part of a movement that is changing the world. We call it the 2-Minute drill. Listen to find out what it's all about.
How to Know When You've "Made" It, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO184
On your journey toward success in business in life, you're going to go through stages. Sometimes you feel as if you've earned your swag, sometimes you will feel as if you don't know what the f*ck you're doing. Regardless of how successful people feel, they do one thing that the rest of the world doesn't. In this episode, I tell you what that is, and how you can/should do it too.
Material Goals: Inspirational or Selfish?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO183
When I first bought and drove luxury sports cars like my Lambo, I didn't tell anyone about it. I felt guilty and embarrassed because so many people think being motivated by material things is immoral. I have come to believe they are wrong. While life is more than material things, it is legit to use them as motivation. In fact, they are a great motivation. In this episode, I tell you why.
Trust Your Instruments, with Andy Frisella - Thursday Thunder
When people experience hard times or something they didn't plan on, the tendency is to freak out, start second-guessing themselves, and back track on their plans. In this episode, I tell a story about flying home from Vegas when something we heard scared the sh*t out of us. The lesson for us then, and the lesson for all of life, is this: Relax. And trust your instruments.
The Recipe for Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO182
People always email or DM me and say stuff like "Oh, Andy, I'm going to be the best entrepreneur that you've ever seen. I know you'll be proud." But then they add, "Uh, but I don't know where to start." Well, in this episode, I tell you where the start. I give you the basic sh*t you need to do to get rolling in business and making money."
Talent Vs. Choice, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO181
Does loads of talent determine your success? No. So stop looking at other people and say, "Man, if I had his talent, I'd be able to achieve my goals." That's total bullsh*t. Here's the reality: It's not lack of talent or ability or circumstances that keep you from success. It's the failure to make the right choices. You have to know what to do and to choose to do it.
Lewis Howes' Mask of Masculinity, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO180
My buddy Lewis Howes wrote a book called The Mask of Masculinity. He joined me in the studio and we talked about how getting honest and transparent and dealing with your sh*t will help you succeed. We also talked about how being vulnerable doesn't make you a p*ssy, but actually helps you be even more driven and competitive. This is one of my favorite episodes ever. Listen and learn.
100-0: It's A Lifestyle, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO179
When we're little, most of us are encouraged to be great. But when we get older, for some reason, the script changes. We're told to be practical, realistic. The people who used to support us now discourage us--so we can be average, like them. You need to learn how to react to people like that. You need to learn to get p*ssed at their negativity and drive it into productive action. Learn to do whatever it takes to "live a life that says 'I told you so' without having to say a word."
How to Beat Burnout, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO178
How do you beat burnout? Here's the reality: It's something that has happened (or will happen) to anybody who is trying to build/run a business and/or do something great and sustain it over the long haul. Have you lost hope in the process? Have you lost your vision for what you're trying to accomplish? There are a number of reasons why people burn out. I talk about these and other main causes for burnout and share what my experience has taught me about overcoming it and pressing on.
Serious Millionaires Know When To Laugh, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO177
I've told a lot of you guys that when my best friend and I started our business, we were so broke we had to live in the back of our store and sleep on an old mattress from Goodwill. In this episode, I go into detail about actually sleeping on that mattress, how embarrassing it was, but what it taught me:
The Key Flaw That Keeps Millennials (And You) From Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO176
Are Millennials entitled? Do they lack work ethic? There's some legitimacy to those charges. But on the other hand, there are plenty of young people (men and women under 30) who have the drive and ability to do great things. In this episode, I talk about the key flaw in many Millennials. It might be what's keeping you from success, too.
Avoid These Mistakes When You Start to Succeed, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO175
In business and life, it's great when you really get rolling. But when a little success makes you bigger and busier, you might make certain critical mistakes that will derail you before you really get started. In this episode, I tell you what those mistakes are and how to avoid them.
Know Your Limits, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO174
You know how you take your life to the next level? You actually figure out what your limits are. You identify your limits physically, mentally, in your relationship, and in your career. Then you make a specific, intentional effort to go beyond those limits. You have to know where the point of failure is for you so you can overcome it on your way to success.
How To End Relationships That Impede Your Progress, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO173
What do you do when you want to be successful, but you've got a relationship in your life that is counterproductive to all your personal and professional goals and dreams? The answer isn't easy, but it is simple: You cut them off. Yes, this kind of thing can be really messy. But you have to do it. In this podcast, I tell you why and how I've done it. If you want to fulfill your potential, you'll need to do it, too.
The Secret All Great Companies Know That You Don't, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO172
So many entrepreneurs now think they are going to start a business, make a half-ass product, charge a lot of money for it, and become wealthy. But here's the reality: that's not going to happen. Great entrepreneurs know the best, most effective marketing strategy you can possibly have. It's the most critical factor in a company's success. Do you know what it is?
Struggling To Make An Impact?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO171
People contact me and explain that they are making decent money, but don't feel like they are really making a difference in the world. So they tell me they are thinking of trying to start some sort of charitable organization or join a movement dedicated to some worthy cause. I tell them that is wrong thinking. They--and you--need to realize that you can make a difference right now. In this episode, I tell you how.
How To Think About Money (To Make A Lot Of Money), with Andy Frisella - MFCEO170
Is chasing money a bad thing? I don't think so. Money is not everything in life, but it's a great, great thing. And in this episode of the podcast, I re-emphasize how important it is to change your beliefs about money. Why? Because you have to think right about money to make a sh*t ton of it.
How to Become Self-Aware And Unlock Your True Potential, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO169
How have I worked through the process of building something successful? How have I developed the mindset that has helped me earn millions of dollars? I've tried different kinds of life hacks and mental tools over the years. One thing that I really believe in is holding yourself accountable. How do you do that? In this podcast, I share two practical tools - a set of questions and a mental dialogue - that have helped me immensely. Listen to find out what they are.
How Millionaires Create Mental Toughness Through Adversity in Business, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO168
When you experience an extreme situation that presents an obstacle that is hard to overcome, something amazing can happen: it can end up becoming one of the best things that ever happens to you. The process of recovery, the journey of overcoming, can produce qualities in your character and assets you can add to the arsenal you use to achieve the highest levels of success. Bottom line: obstacles are opportunities for greatness. You have to choose to believe that.
Mark Bell On Struggle, Sling Shots, and Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO167

F*ck Your Competitors and Focus on You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO166
How do you stand your ground against the goliath of your industry? This question and others about competitors were posed by Andy Frisella's listeners and social media followers. The MFCEO's short answer: F*uck your competitors! Why are you worried so much about them? Focus on you."
Why Long and Hard Is the Best Road To Rich and Powerful, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO165
Even if there was a quick and easy path to get rich and powerful, the MFCEO says you shouldn't take it. Why? Among other reasons: when you get money easily, you lose it easily. It takes time and experience to become the kind of person who can really handle large sums of money. And you cheat yourself out of the things you gain when you take the long and hard road: a great story and the right to respect.
Are You An Imitator or Impostor?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO164
If you are waiting to see what other successful people do just so you can do the same thing, you are doing yourself a disservice. It's one thing to notice what someone else does well. It's legitimate to cherry pick a good idea or best practice and apply it to your life and business. But here's the bottom line: whatever you draw from someone else should be adapted and be developed for you. You don't want to be a carbon copy of someone else. It's less than you deserve and bad business.
Nobody Is Out To Get You, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO163
One idea that doesn't belong in an authentic entrepreneur's mind is the idea that somebody is out to get you. That someone is trying to put obstacles in your way and keep you down. That's false. The reality is, it's up to you. You have to grow your skills. You have to create the opportunities. You need to put in the work. The only person you should be worried about is yourself.
How To Manage Money To Get and Stay Rich, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO162
How do the rich manage their money? Do they keep a budget like average people? Do they avoid impulsive purchases? How do they use credit cards? Do they care about their credit score? In this episode of The MFCEO Project, Andy Frisella covers the basic principles and best practices for anyone who wants to get and stay rich.
What Got You Here Will Not Get You There, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO161
There's a common mistake that stalls a lot of people's progress. They may be on their way to achieving their goals, making more money, but then all of a sudden, they hit a brick wall. Why? It's because people assume that the same plan and practices that earned them some success at the early stages of their life can be applied to every other stage. It can't. If you want to continue fulfilling your own true potential, you have to learn to change.
Easy Never Pays Well, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO160
In today's day of entrepreneurship, we have young people (and old people, too!) who are constantly looking for the grand slam or overnight success. They want to try to mimic the stories they read about that say how someone took a rocket ship to mind-boggling wealth. Here's the reality: in spite of the rare stories that are posted all over the internet, there's no easy way to earn big money. You have to provide value. You have to execute in an exceptional way. You have to do the things that are d
Leadership: Above and Beyond, All the Time, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO159
The most valuable thing you are going to learn in business isn't how to sell. It is how to manage a team, from the guy sweeping the floor to your highest-level VP. Mastering the art of leadership is hard, but worth it. So how do you learn how to lead? The first step is to make a habit of taking initiative. When you see something that needs to be done and you do it well, you're on your way to becoming an incredible leader--the kind that knows how to build wealth and build an empire.

The Skill of Leadership, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO157
What skill can determine whether you are going to be an average person who earns $40,000-$80,000 a year or an exceptional person who earns 6 to 7 figures a year? It's the skill of leadership. If you learn and master the effective management of people, your potential for success and greatness will be unlimited. How much time are you investing in the development of this skill? It is an investment that pays off.
No Matter What, Make It Happen (For the 4th of July), with Andy Frisella - MFCEO156
Happy 4th of July! The men who founded America believed in something bigger than themselves. They believed in something that could make their lives better, as well as the lives of their families. But they also knew that they were up against impossible odds and that the cost of failure was high. Are you motivated to pursue amazing, seemingly impossible goals? Not just goals that benefit you, but others too? Have you considered the high cost of achievement? America was built by people who, in the
On the Brink, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO155
Think about all the things that people have said to you that bother you. Go back to when you were a little kid. What did they say? Maybe it was that you were: fat. Stupid. A loser. A weirdo. Even though you were little when it happened, the hard truth is that you grow up and remember that sh*t. Here's the deal: People have a tendency to think their struggles or issues are worse than everybody else's. But the reality is that everybody deals with something. What it comes down to is this: When you
Cash In Your Chip, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO154
This one goes out to the guys (and gals) who are working hard and have a chip on their shoulder because everybody they know - even their friends and family -are telling them to "grow up" because they are crazy to "pursue an unrealistic dream." Guess what? Someday, when you are successful, they will tell you "you are a genius" and "I always believed in you." And it will be bull sh*t. But it doesn't matter. Those stupid things that people say are blessings. They will create the chip on your shoul
The Bogeymen That Don't Exist, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO153
What if? What if? What if? Entrepreneurs are always sending Andy Frisella emails and direct messages freaking out about this or that. Most of the time, they are afraid of things that aren't really threats to their success. In this episode, Andy walks listens through the lineup of "bogeymen that don't exist." Instead of being afraid of these things, The MFCEO says, fear mediocrity. And fear never doing anything at all.
You Need To Be Direct, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO152
Good communication skills are critical to success. Unfortunately, society has become so soft and overly sensitive that people feel they need to be passive and tentative in the way they speak to others. They tone down the truth to avoid offending someone. They are vague in order to avoid hurting someone's feelings. Guess what? This doesn't work. In order to succeed personally and professionally, you need to speak clearly. You need to speak truthfully. You need to be direct.
Why Excellence Is Everything, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO151
The importance of excellence has always been one of Andy Frisella's foundational values and one of the basic assumptions of The MFCEO Project. But in 150 episodes, Andy has never explicitly explained why excellence is so important - why it's everything. From how it undergirds the confidence necessary for success to how it protects us from the danger of laziness, The MFCEO unpacks and breaks down his thoughts on excellence - and shows exactly why it's essential to personal and professional succes
Drop the Anchor, Get a Propeller (Relationships for Entrepreneurs), with Andy Frisella - MFCEO150
What do you do when the person you love does not support you and your goals? Or, what do you when they support your overall goals, but they often nag you about your lack of progress? Do you suck it up and take it? Do you just tell them to go to hell? In this episode of Thursday Thunder, Andy Frisella unpacks his thoughts and answers this frequently asked question. The bottom line: a relationship is two people believing in the same things and being committed to the same goals. Is that what you ha
The Reality of Money, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO149
Money, money, money! In today's episode, Andy Frisella shares his take on all things money: Is money the greatest thing in the world or the root of all evil? What's the difference between making money and earning it? How do the most successful people think about money and handle it? This is a favorite topic of The MFCEO's - one that he has talked about before, but is so important that it bears repeating.
Learn How to Think, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO148
We live in a society that has produced very soft, very delicate little snowflakes. An entitlement complex is running through the current generation. They think they should be handed the good things that come from a life of hard work--without actually working for them! But one of the worst qualities of so many people today is that they want to know what to think. They haven't learned how to think. That is an indispensable requirement for becoming successful.
It Matters What People Think, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO147
It's popular today to go around saying, "I'm gonna be me. And I give zero f*cks what anyone thinks about it." While we should not be enslaved to other people's opinions, Andy Frisella says that what other people think about you matters. People are going to judge what kind of person you are by how you treat people and what you put out on social media. If you don't take that seriously, you're in trouble. Opportunity comes from other people--and how other people perceive you is huge. If you struggl
The Support Expectation, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO146
Too many people complain that their friends and family aren't supporting their business. Here's the reality: you're going to need way more than the support of your friends and family to be successful. Plus, your friends and family aren't obligated to support you. When it comes to the real world of business, they owe you nothing. It's your job to provide a quality product or service that everyone would want to support. And it's your job to sell them on that quality product or service. But above a
How to Make The Clock Your B*tch (Time Mastery), with Andy Frisella - MFCEO145
How do you suck the marrow from every 24-hour period you live and work on this Earth? Is there a difference between working hard throughout the day and making the day work hard for you? In this episode of The MFCEO Project, Andy Frisella shares his tips and tricks for moving beyond time management to time mastery. Other people may have more brains, talent, or money. But everyone has the same amount of time in their day. To be successful, we have to learn how to make that time count.
Stop the Show, Start the Work, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO144
A chronic problem with the world of entrepreneurialism right now is the ubiquitous presence of "hustlers" who are showing the world their "baller" lifestyle. The problem is, they are just showing it. They aren't really living it; because they haven't done the hard work necessary to experience it. The reality is, people like the show and the style, but they've never developed the substance required for success. The MFCEO says: you can't fake it. You won't become an authentic success without takin
How to Manage Cash Flow, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO143
One of the common killers of inexperienced entrepreneurs is not knowing how to manage your cash flow. In this episode, Andy Frisella talks through the typical mistakes that he himself has made and the lessons he's learned from doing business for almost two decades. From not paying your invoices before they are due to finding innovative ways to generate cash, The MFCEO's advice will help any entrepreneur and any business avoid a cash flow crisis.
Power Through Frustration, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO142
When you begin a new project or venture, you are extremely excited. But as the days pass, it becomes harder and harder to sustain enthusiasm. Things become monotonous. You become frustrated. You wonder: what is wrong with me? Answer: nothing. That's normal. But the reality is, when the excitement wears off, most people quit. That's too bad, the MFCEO says, because if you push through the excruciatingly hard times, it gets easier. It's gets more satisfying. It's gets awesome.
Battleground Mentality, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO141
There are two groups of people on the Earth: Whiners and Winners. Whiners believe that life is a playground. They are surprised when they experience conflict. They are surprised when they get hurt. Winners are different. They succeed in life because they possess a battleground mentality. In this episode, Andy Frisella explains exactly what that means.
Discipline Is The Difference, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO140
What really matters when it comes down to being successful? It's not motivation. It's discipline. Anybody can give 100 percent at the gym when they feel like it. Anybody can do the work they need to do when they feel like it. But it is the people who are completely unmotivated and even repulsed by the thought of hitting the gym or doing the work - and do it anyway! - that are the ones who truly dominate in everything they do.
How to Integrate Subject Matter Expertise and Sales, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO139
When it comes to sales, you can't settle for mastering product knowledge.That's too myopic. You have to broaden your approach to include a comprehensive knowledge and expertise, not just of a particular product, but of the whole industry or field of which your product is one part. As Andy Frisella says, you have to be "the guy." You yourself have to be a holistic resource for your customer. Those who do that will reap benefits for your brand and bottom line.
Your Sacrifice Is Normal, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO138
You think you're making a sacrifice in the pursuit of your dream? You think you are giving up so much as you work to build your business? Andy Frisella says that you need to radically readjust your thinking on the matter. Pain and struggle and sacrifice are a normal part of achievement. You aren't doing anything that anyone who has ever achieved greatness hasn't done. You need to understand that. You need to quit your bitching and get work done.
Paint a Picture, Cast a Vision, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO137

In this episode, The MFCEO drops some truth bombs about the responsibility that every entrepreneur has to "paint the picture" that will cast a compelling vision that will motivate your team and create a winning culture.
Create Value, Create Opportunity, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO136

In this episode, Andy talks to the Maki Brothers and breaks down his thoughts on building something of value, taking initiative, and doing the work necessary to open up amazing opportunities for yourself.
How to Create Killer Content, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO135
How did Andy Frisella build a huge social media following and motivate millions of listeners to download The MFCEO Project every month? How did he become a highly sought after speaker and consultant?

In this episode he shares his guiding principles and practical tips for putting together the kind of
The Inefficient Is Essential, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO134
What's next for Andy Frisella? In this episode, The MFCEO shares his plans for further developing the podcast and the mission of The MFCEO Project.

Through Hell, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO133

In this episode, Andy Frisella serves as a guide through the underworld and provides his thoughts on confronting and overcoming the trials and tribulations that are faced by men and women who are serious about running their own business.
The Idea of Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO132
In spite of what The MFCEO has said countless times, people are always clamoring for the "next level content" and "the secret" to success. Andy Frisella says, "no." There's no "next level content" that only the elite know. There's no "secret" available to a chosen few. It's really basic: "make a list, do the list. win now." The problem is that people don't really want to do what is necessary to be successful. They are more in love with the idea of success.

"What if I get successful and lose all my friends?" That's a question that The MFCEO gets all the time. "Listen," says Andy Frisella. "As you move up the ladder of accomplishment, your peer group will change." Why? Because you will change. You will become a better, more badass person; and better, more badass people will be attracted to you and your life. It doesn't mean certain members of your old peer group are bad people. It just means that you've become very different people with different ho
Opportunity Through Motion, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO128
Entrepreneurs are always asking how to get opportunities, how to network, and how to get opportunities.

You create them!
Haters Vs. Criticism, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO127
It's great if you are out there trying to build a business and life of value. But too many people out there are complaining that they have "haters." According to The MFCEO Andy Frisella, very few people have accomplished anything significant enough to have haters. The haters are imaginary; they exist in the minds of people who want to create excuses for their lack of progress. In reality, you might be on the receiving end of legitimate criticism. If that's the case, don't call it "hate." Accept

The Power of Personal Branding, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO123

Toot Toot, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO122
This is a 2-for-1 Thursday Thunder! First: are you an entrepreneur who likes to take "the shotgun approach?" Do you come out with a product, release it to the public, it goes "okay" but not good, so you just move on to another product--or even another company? According to Andy Frisella, most people don't understand that success takes time and tenacity. They don't have the aggressive patience necessary to succeed. Without it, they will bounce from one thing to the next and never enjoy the amazin
Retention Before Acquisition, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO121
When you're in business, most of your revenue is generated by repeat customers. So it is not only important to gain customers, it is vitally important to keep them.

Bottom line: if you want to move up in the world of business, you've got to learn how to follow-up and follow-thr
Your Best, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO120
"I'm doing my best." That's what people say all the time. But Andy Frisella asks, "what is your best?" According to The MFCEO, "your best" is always developing, always evolving.

Five Days In, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO118
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.

Even if you've already screwed up your plan, stop being in love with the idea of success and start actually working toward it. N
Recalibrate, Part 4: Perseverance, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO117

The Intangibles, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO114
"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.

Make the resolution now--and act now.
Approach And Engage, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO109
Doing business today, people might think that online technology makes in-person contact less important. Only morons believe that. That’s like saying that since we have the internet, we no longer need to know the alphabet. Wrong. The alphabet is fundamental; and so is one-on-one interaction. In spite of websites and social media accounts, businesses still have to make real phone calls, sometimes even go door-to-door, and have real conversations with real people. In business and in all of life,
Actions Follow Focus, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO108

No Such Thing As Magic, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO105
Like naïve little kids at Christmas, the average person thinks success is magical. They think that achieving your goals, fulfilling your dreams, and living a life of health, wealth, and happiness happens when somewhere, in Never Never Land, the stars align, the Success Fairy waves her Magical One Hundred Percent Guaranteed Success Wand, and everything in your life miraculously turns to glitter and gold. But people who are destined to succeed know better. They know they are destined to succeed b
Know When To Hold Them, Know When To Fold Them, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO104

The Advantage of Being Broke, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO103
People say this all the time: "I have this incredible idea. I've developed this awesome product or service concept. But I just don't have any money." So they justify failure because they had no funds. But according to Andy Frisella, lack of resources is a huge advantage. It forces you to get innovative and to work even harder.
Control Your Focus, Control Your Outcome, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO102
The minds of successful people are always active. They have an opportunity mindset and want to make the most of everything that happens in their lives. That's the good news. But according to The MFCEO, the one downside of that mentality is that they think they can focus on everything; they think they can divide their attention and energy into every possible project. Spoiler alert: They can't. In this episode, Andy Frisella provides some practical tips for to how to focus on one thing; and how th
Luck Versus Faith, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO101
Too many people attribute other people's success to luck. They don't really believe that hard work and persistence are the reasons that people do great things in life. They don't have faith in the process of execution. The first view of life allows you to sit on your ass and make excuses. The other view demands that you act and trust the process. The view that you hold determines the person that you are and the success you will enjoy in life.
The MFCEO Movement, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO100

Dr. Seuss Was Right, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO99
When you look at people's social media posts as well as their interactions in the real world, you'll notice something: They always try to emulate someone else. This happens all the time. The average person ends up becoming watered-down, carbon copies of other people. Successful people are different. They embrace their authentic self and are comfortable being who they are.
Pissed Off Customers: Annoyance or Opportunity?, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO98
You've heard the old phrase, "there's a thin line between love and hate?" Well, successful people know the opposite is true. Intense, negative energy can be converted into positive passion. So if your business experiences a disgruntled customer, don't chock it up to "well, you win some, you lose some." You have been presented an amazing opportunity. Angry customers can become amazing advocates. You just need to adjust your mindset and adopt the right method.
Losers Leave It To Chance, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO97
If you want to succeed in life, you can't leave anything up to chance. You cannot go 40, 50, or 60 percent of the way toward excellence, but then leave a bunch of factors and variables free to handle themselves. Of course, some things are meant to be. You can't control everything, all the time. But the people who truly kill it in life are those who take control of every possible factor.
Balance Is Not Balance, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO96
There's two ways to look at balance. There's the way average people understand it: it's a daily, possibly weekly, task. It's calibrating the different events and activities and obligations of our lives so that they all get equal time. But successful people look at balance far differently. Essentially, it's intense, single-minded investment up front with dividends later. If you want to be financially successful, you have to look at it the same way.
Choice + Action = Outcome, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO95

Active vs. Passive Living, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO94

Leadership Rules, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO93
Companies rise and fall…on leadership. Governments rise and fall…on leadership. Any movement that’s trying to do something good rises and falls…on leadership. Here’s the reality: the strength of a nation…of a culture…of the whole human race rises and falls on the strength of it’s leaders. Whether you’re the CEO of a multi-million dollar business or you’re just a dude with a 9-5 job who wants to fucking kill it at that 9-5 job, you have to learn to lead. There's no other way to be successful.
Thank Your Fear, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO92
Life is short. We're going to die.

Here's the reality: You're going to make mistakes and screw up either way. If you take the time to think about what you are really afraid of, you can use fear as an advantage.
Resourceful or Die, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO91
Resourcefulness is the ability to creatively cope with difficulties and challenges, in business or in life. Whether it is knowing how to learn from their experiences or adjusting their game plan to make the most of their assets, men and women who develop and exercise their resourcefulness are bound to succeed. But the foundation of all resourcefulness is the mindset that says, "Failure is not an option."
All In, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO90
Entrepreneurship is not for everyone. It is the hot thing right now, but it is being sold by shady people peddling the dream of making a million dollars in less than a year. If you are wondering whether or not you should start a business, embark on an entrepreneurial endeavor, or pursue any other big goal in life, here's what you need to realize: It's going to take time. It's going to take everything you have. You aren't going to be able to do it unless you are all in.
Zero Options Mentality, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO89
Do you ever run into people who say, "I don't have the resources to succeed" or "our company doesn't really have any assets, so that's why we're failing"? According to Andy Frisella, lack of traditional resources is one of the greatest assets you can have. This positive way of thinking, this no-resources-is-a-good-thing mindset is what The MFCEO calls "Zero Options Mentality." It's essential for success.
The Food Chain of Success, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO88
"Everything you do is competition," says The MFCEO. You can't hide from it. You can't pretend that life on Earth doesn't run by the rules of "compete or die." You will either be a do-nothing or a champion. The good news is that it is not a zero sum game. Anyone who adopts a killer competitive attitude and commits to hard work can win at life.
How To Create Value in Yourself, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO87
Just as businesses thrive on products that solve problems and bring value to customers, successful people are men and women who have learned how to provide value through who they are and what they do--no matter what it is.

Whether it is forming the habit of hard work or always seeing the bigger picture, there are practical steps anyone can take to become a truly valuable person.
You Are In Control, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO86
The difference between people who fail and people who succeed is that the latter are brutally honest with themselves. They don't make excuses for themselves. They don't blame any external factors or circumstances. They execute. They push through. And above all else, the believe they are in control of their lives. And they use that control to accomplish incredible feats that others only dream about.
Controlling Momentum, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO85

Quit Quitting, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO84
The cheesy self-help gurus and self-proclaimed masters of success always repeat the same phrase, "Don't quit. Don't ever quit." Even though it's gotten to be a cliche and is often expressed in a sunshine-and-unicorns way, it is true. Success is hard. The world doesn't owe you anything. You are going to have to fight like hell for every inch of progress. Above all, you have to learn how to finish. You must quit quitting.
Sales As A Way of Life, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO83
Sales skills aren't just helpful for business. They are applicable--and essential--for success in all of life. Joined by his brother, 1st Phorm President of Operations Sal Frisella, The MFCEO returns to a favorite subject. Ultimately, it's not about selling products and services. It's about selling yourself--and helping people.
Quit Fearing the Work, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO82
"Why are you afraid of the work?" That's the question the MFCEO poses to people who aren't realizing their potential and pursuing the kind of life they really want. At first glance, Andy Frisella says, people might seem lazy. Sometimes they are. But often, people aren't lazy. They are afraid. The prospect of working hard terrifies them because they don't understand the benefits. They don't believe that their hard work will ultimately payoff.

Your Situation Is Not Unique, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO80
"Hey, Andy! Can you give me some special advice for accomplishing my goals and dreams? My situation is unique." No. Stop right there. According to The MFCEO, nobody's situation is unique.

In short: They know how to be memorable.
The One Word That Can Destroy Your Life, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO77
What's the one word that gets mentioned again and again in our popular culture? What's the one word that people use again and again, to the detriment of their own lives? According to The MFCEO, that word is "fair." The entitlement mentality that says "I deserve better " is destructive.

So many people say, "This is my greatest hope and dream...but if it doesn't work out, there's always Plan B." Andy Frisella says, "No!" There-Is-Always-Plan-B kind of thinking is the mindset of failure. You need to be 100 percent committed. All or nothing.
Showing Up Is Not Enough, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO72

You Will Do Something Badly Before You're a Badass, with Andy Frisella - MFCEO70
