Video summary

Tony Gash is currently undertaking a forty-hour water fast, aiming to extend it to seventy-two hours while walking to meet his daily step goals, consuming only lemon water without sugar or carbohydrates. He explains that this practice heals the body by targeting visceral fat and eliminating diseased cells through autophagy, though he stresses that physical healing must be accompanied by mental preparation and careful attention to electrolyte balance before reintroducing food. Motivated by a family history of Type 2 diabetes and early deaths linked to sugar consumption, Gash advises listeners to consult health professionals and listen to their bodies rather than blindly following religious fasting examples without medical clearance or divine guidance. He also highlights the importance of individual dietary needs within marriages and warns against the dangers of yo-yo dieting, encouraging viewers to budget and save during prosperous times for future hardships, much like the biblical story of Joseph. Beyond physical health, Gash addresses financial stewardship, arguing that even if banks are hacked or fail, governments will offset losses by printing money and raising costs such as gas prices and taxes, revealing the monetary system as a monopoly of recycled paper. He prioritizes spiritual wealth over earthly assets to avoid theft and aligns with biblical teachings to store treasures in heaven, while admitting his own struggles with managing money due to lifestyle choices like attending sports events. Drawing from Proverbs, he advises against co-signing loans, fleeing temptation, and avoiding violent environments, noting that the Bible remains relevant to modern issues like gang violence. He reinterprets biblical commands on tithing, asserting that honoring God through "first fruits" involves practical support for family and charity rather than mandatory church donations or transactional strategies for blessings. Gash distinguishes between different callings in ministry, citing examples of artists who struggle with sin but still serve valuable roles, while admitting his primary challenge is financial stewardship which can hinder spiritual growth if misused. To help viewers navigate economic hardship, he promotes a "Recession Ready Course" designed to assist with income generation and financial management, urging single individuals with high incomes to support homeless families through fundraising while learning to say "no" to prevent depletion. He encourages implementing course lessons rather than just purchasing them, using social media strategically for growth, and overcoming fear and insecurity to achieve life goals. Ultimately, he invites viewers to share their testimonies within a year, emphasizing that money is merely a tool requiring careful management rather than an object of worship, and that true success comes from applying these principles in daily life.

Hey, hey, Tony Gash here. I see I got 15 minutes of walking till I hit 1 hour. Then I'mma turn around, try to make it back to the car in 1 hour. Might be taking a little longer, but want to pop on here. Y'all got to forgive me cuz I'm out here at the water, but also right by the road. And remember, join us in the purpose pushes community. Not sure if this here headphone gonna work the whole time cuz it gets disconnected. It got a shortage in it. So y'all got to forgive me, but I figure if I take it out, you definitely ain't going to be able to hear me. So please forgive me on that right there. Hopefully if it come out, it'll stop the time. But finished our call today. walk and talk. I can't walk while I'm talking on the call, so I'm sitting still. But then after that, I do my walk like I'm doing now when I'm able to. Make sure you get 30 minutes of walking in every day. It's one thing we pushing and promoting in the Purpose Pushers community. Join us. It's only $47 a month.

Walk in your purpose. figure out how to build business around it, figure out how to do it fulltime, and that's our that's our goal in it. So, wanted to share that with you. Now, just popping on out here on here to holl at you while I'm walking cuz it definitely is a tough walk. And I'm on a I'm fasting. So, I forgot what time it was. Going on 11:00. So, right now I'm on a water fast. So, I've had no sugar, no food. And last night put a few rings of salt in my hand and had that lemon perfect no sugar and had one of those last night just to kind of help me on this liquid fast, mainly water fast. But um doing this just to reset the body, give a body a opportunity to get some healing. I'm starting to feel a little burning in my stomach right now cuz I'm on this walk. And so, you know, to get 10,000 steps in at one time, that is quite a lot cuz it's two hours of walking with no food in me. So probably haven't ate in 24 36 probably going on about to be 38 39 could be 40 hours already cuz I I didn't track I forgot to see when the last thing I ate on Sunday. So definitely at about 40 hours, I'll for sure get through 48. The goal is 72. And yesterday felt good. Felt totally fine because Sunday had a fueling day and I didn't fuel on light food. I had pizza. So, I had a meatlovers pizza from Pizza Hut and had some Cinnab buns. Had a couple of those, no alcohol on Sunday. But, but I think I had a Coke. Yeah, boy. I would live it, boy. You hear me? So, when you live like that, sometimes you got to flip it and you got to fast. And so for me, what I'm going to try to do is a minimum of 36 hours of fasting to start every week. I'mma do personally for like the first for like the next four weeks. I would love to start the week with a 72-hour fast, water fast, and then go into just, you know, clean eating after that. Clean eating, no sugar, no alcohol. Sometimes if I'm out socially or whatever, I may have to, you know, have me a little drink. You don't have to, but you know, when when you drink alcohol and you out and everybody having them a little drink, I just look at it like being at a wedding or something. But then after that, you got to cleanse their body. But see, one thing that the alcohol does is it stop the fat burning, they say. Now, I don't know how true that is, but I mean, I know I won't be losing no weight, so it might have some truth to it. So, it stopped the fat burning, they say. And so, I'm going to cut that out. Cut that alcohol out. And recommend that to anybody trying to lose weight. But even more so than the alcohol, think the sugar. The sugar and the carbs. Those right there is real real killers too. And that's you got to think like you'll see some people they drink alcohol, they live till 90, live to 100. And then you see people who have too much sugar, they'll die at 60, 55, 60, 65. like for the longest my family on my dad's side, nobody made it past 65. Just had a uncle make it to I think 71, which is still very young, but he made it to 71, but it was an unhealthy 71. He he probably was blind for the most part, like legally blind for the last 5 10 years of his life. I can't remember if he lost a leg too, but it just come from not having and that's why I started black &.com, but probably just going to merge it with the purpose pushers because the purpose pushers get the same cause and a lot more value. But that why I started it because both of my parents have type 2 diabetes. And on my dad's side, none of his siblings, he's one of 12, none of his siblings live past 65. And so I'm like, man, this sugar is a killer. And they all had type two diabetes. And I remember both of his sisters, he got two sisters and nine brothers. Both sisters had their legs amputated and went blind and both died around 60 if I'm not mistaken. And it's just a sad life to live. It's hard to live that life. And I don't want to live that life. That ain't what I'm trying to go through. I don't want to go through that. And so that's why I'm out here walking. That's why I started the purpose pushers to have a group of like-minded driven individuals pushing towards something greater than us. And it's going life, you know, it's going to require a shift. It's going to require more. It's going to require a different level of grind, a different level of intensity, different level of commitment. And that's what we working on. You got to be willing to do it. Got to be willing to put in the work. You got to love yourself. You got to learn how to love you. You got to learn how to do what you called to do. You got to learn how to go to that next level. And so that's what we pushing for, getting to that next level. and doing what we got to do. Next month, thinking about doing a weight loss challenge in the Purpose Pushes community. do us a healthy weight loss challenge and you know doctor recommended type diets, whatever your doctor say you allowed to do and see who can get some pounds off and have us a cash reward and go from there. And so we yeah we going to make that right there happen. So, we're doing the purpose pushes. Join us. We also going to have us a some more cash rewards and give backs. Um, each month we going to be splitting up. Right now, it'll be $500 to $600 amongst those on the leaderboard. The leaderboard is for like your how many posts you do, how many posts you like, comment on, things like that. You get points for your interactions. So, we're going to be the leaderboard will be splitting that up. So, I'm going to make that announcement. Going to be splitting that up, blessing people. And so, we making it happen. And I'm just praying to the Lord for more. ideas, more creativity to support those in the Purpose Pushers community, and gonna keep on grinding. But hey, it's time. It's time time to get right. So, I'm going to try to do this fast. Now one thing about fasting that you have to realize is it really it heals your body but what you really need the healing in is you need the healing in your mind because you could heal your body but if you don't heal your mind or you going to suffer and what I mean by that is you will fast. Let me see what the time is. I got to turn around. 4 minutes. Turn around. You'll fast. And then when you come off that fast and you reintroduce food, for one, if you reintroduce too heavy of food, it'll have you on that toilet cuz that body go to acting up. Now, for two, you'll start to overeat. So you could fast 24 24 hours don't fast don't really do you a whole lot of good. You really got to it does something but you really got to try to get to 36 if your health will allow it. Talk to your doctor though cuz everybody can't do it especially women. Fasting is very tricky for women. So that's mainly for men but women can do it too. And people always point to the Bible like, "Oh, Tony, the women in the Bible fasted, whatever." But they were under the anointing of God. They was under a divine covering. You can't just go into that type of fast coming off your dildo, coming off all your sugar, all your red wine, all your fried greasy food, all your snacks of deb cakes and red velvet. You not those women. That's that's why they in the Holy Bible. The story not in the Bible. So you can't just see something in the Bible and be like, "Oh, I'm just going to do that cuz that's in the Bible." That God was with them in a different kind of way. So you got to be smart. You got to talk to your health professional and you got to know what you doing. John the Baptist and Jesus fasted 40 days, 40 nights. I want to do that. But I but they was out by theirel. John the Bapt was eating uh locust and wild honey. So they was out by theirel. I'm dealing with y'all. I got to film a video today. I probably got about 10 sessions on the book that I got to try to figure out and move around and try to move people around cuz open my coaching calendar which you better take advantage of it right now. the coaching discount on my mentor.life, but I opened my coaching calendar and I already had people on my other calendar. So, now I'm double booked on a lot of hours. So, y'all look out for a text from me if I have to text you and move you around. But when I open that discount, well, I get booked up, which it just let me know that's where people pockets at right now. I talked to somebody yesterday who make $200,000 and I got other clients that make $400,000, 500,000 and they don't book a session until it's hundred and something dollars and cuz they say they prove it and they got a budget and even though they make that much money, they save all their money and paying student loans or whatever it may be. So it's like imagine that if people who make hundreds of thousands wait on a sale, imagine the people who only making 40,000, 50,000, 60,000. So that's why I have to do that every now and then, just to remain humble, remain accessible. Yes, I say I'm going to retire after every time, but the Lord called me back cuz that's what I'm called to. So if you could touch the hem of Jesus garment, then who am I to not be accessible? And so that's how I look at it and what I think about every time I say I'm returning. It's what the Lord called me to man. I don't walked an hour. Now I got to walk back an hour. Boy, this hour going to hurt me. Lord Jesus. I really hope y'all can still hear me. But this a very old cord I got. So it got a shortage in it. But guess what? It's going up regardless cuz you know what? Somebody it might be playing and just like speaking in tongues. You can't hear me, but it's still God know what I'm saying and it's still hitting your spirit and you might be sleeping. So I'm sure going f to upload the whole video even the sound go out. So listen the sound go out. Don't even bother telling me when the sound go out cuz I know it's probably going to go out. If I do any little jerk of this cord that sound going out on you tell you that now. So listen to me. Something you got to do. Something you got to do. Something you got to get done. And you got to start loving yourself because you got you. Your life is up to you. Your life is going to be what you make it. You can't change nothing if you unwilling to change. If you unwilling to work, you got to be willing to put the work in. Point blank period. It's not going to be easy. It's not going to be fun, but that's the point. It's not meant to be easy. It's not meant to be fun. It's meant to be hard. It's meant to challenge you. It's meant to test you. It's meant to push you. Let me tell you something real quick about this walking though. And we going to get back on that fasting. But let me tell you something about this walking is people say, "Oh, w,000 steps behind my knee, behind my left knee. feel like I don't pulled a tendon. And I'm relatively healthy and I'm not I'm obese on the scale based on the BMI because of my height and my body weight, but it's because muscle weighs more than fat and I'm more muscle than fat. So, I'm probably 85 80 to 85% muscle. And so that right there it weighs more. So I'm so I'm heavier than I look because of you see that old thigh. You see that muscle right there on that thigh? See that old calf. So got a little bit more on me than I look like. Got them running back thighs. Now I was skinny when I was running back in college. But nine, if I had the body in college that I got nine, if I would have had the speed with this hill body, woo woo, I'd have been an NFL running back. Yes, Lord. I would have been an NFL running back. But I was 160 lbs. Now I'm like 200. I get up to 215. Might be around 200 right now, especially with this fasting. But I'mma tell you, so yes, walking does hurt. But with this fasting, the key is that visceral fat. The visceral fat is that fat around your organs. And you don't start to move that visceral fat until you hit 36 hours of fasting. Now, see, here's the thing that a lot of people don't realize is like, okay, when you fasting, yes, you going without food. But if you need electrolytes, then you get you some electrolyte. Get you some electrolytes. You know, if you need you a little bit of MCT oil, get a little working on that stomach. Now, it ain't going to fully MCT oils when you coming off the fast, but you got to listen to your body. So, when you first start fasting, you may only be able to do 4 hours, then you might do 8 hours, then 12 hours. Your meals supposed to be 3 to 4 hours apart anyways, and you're supposed to stop eating 3 to four hours before bed. So start with your 4 hour fast. If you ain't if you eating every 2 hours, then do your 4 hour. Then get to your 6 or 8 hour. Then get to a 12 hour. But see, the thing is when you know you going to fast, you need to prefeed the day before. Make sure you eat the day before and you didn't ate all your meals. So now your body got something to burn. And then after your body burn through that food that it can use, whatever it can't use, it's going to come out of you and waste, number one, number two, hopefully not number three, or number four, but it's going to come on at you. And then once your body burn through that food and you get into that autophagy, now your body going to start burning that fat. And when it start burning your fat and it start burning that visceral fat, it start to move it. It start to eat on it. It'll start to chew on that visceral fat. You got a lot of fat around your organs. And a lot of people be like, "Oh, I can't go x amount of time without eating." It's not unless you got a health issue. Now, it's different if you anemic or you got a health issue. We ain't talking about those extenduating circumstances. So, y'all understand we already accounting for y'all ailments. We talking about just generally healthy people. A lot of times what that headache is is your sugar withdrawal or if you're not having caffeine. That's why I think a lot of people who fast, they still have that black coffee because see I don't need the coffee but a lot of people is addicted to that coffee. So they still have that black coffee and it and it's going on that stomach. It's burning that stomach up. It's tearing that stomach up now. It it it's definitely creating some stuff. But I seen what made me go ahead and fast this week. I saw a guy who which I had been wanting to fast anyways. But I saw a guy he had an ailment immune immune disease and he was immobile. He couldn't walk. And he said, "Man, I'm going to the doctors. They don't know what's going on. They can't help me." I ain't got nothing to lose. I'mma just fast. He said he did a 10 day fast. He said by day four something he said went away. And then by day seven he was walking. He was he was able to walk. Then by day 10 he was like completely healed. So that fasting that's really the purpose of it. that fasting is said to prevent cancer, reverse type 2 diabetes, you know, things of that nature because what it starts to do is eat that visceral fat and it also starts to eat up the bad cells. It take your bad diseased cells. So, like let's say a cancer cell that's a precancer, let's say it ain't turned into cancer, but it got the potential to fasting attacks those cells and it'll take that cell and burn it and use it for energy. So, it'll eat it up to give your body more time to live. So your body go through so many stages before you starve to death, before you die. You notice that's why you see them little kids, they have a little pot belly, you know, because of the reaction or whatever. But they probably get to the point to where they start eating bugs, ants, that might be what's swelling that stomach up. But you see how they don't eat for a while and they live because of how the body work. So you just don't fall over and die. Now I'mma tell y'all what really hurt. What really hurt is a dry fast. If a dry fast is easy for you, you're a monster. You're a beast. If a dry fast, a 72-hour dry fast, if that's easy for you, oh my goodness, you built different. You're a green beret. You need if you ain't turned 42 yet, you need to enlist in the service. You get you some money. You get you some benefits. You need to be a Navy Seal reserve. If a 72-hour drive fast is easy. And hey, I ain't 42 yet. I might list. I might enlist. Y'all get me some benefits. Might enlist. Be me on reserve. So y'all Hey y'all, if y'all see me in there, I might go on in there, get me some reserve, and it'll be my luck. I've been lost my darn life. He been sent me over there to the war like, man, come on now. I tried to come in here and get the easy life now. I want to get some of that VA loan now. Get give him some of them benefit. Come on now. Get in there and pull a hamstring, get that check every month now. But this I think they say you can enlist till 42. I'm sure might hop on in get in there. Some of them benefits. If y'all let me know if there's anything I could do without having to go to basic training, just enlist and just start working on the computer doing something. But got a lot of clients in the service and they live normal lives. I'm like, what you doing in Ohio, North Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia? I thought you supposed to be in Iraq. You in that service. Thought you supposed to be in Afghanistan. you over here in the States going to the office and coming home at 5:00 5:30 need that job there. So yeah, listen to me. It go to eating that visceral fat and eating them bad cells. And I'm going tell you, I stopped fasting because like regularly because I came home and my wife, she is anemic, so she can't fast. So when I fast, we be on two different like schedules and meal plans because she can't fast with me. If she was of normal health, then we would be able to fast together and push each other, hold each other accountable, but she can't fast like that. So she could have a coffee or shake and last, you know, some hours, but her blood sugar go to crashing, her body go to crashing, and so I can always tell when she hungry or she done went too long without eating. She'll get real quiet, real quiet and moody. And so, but soon as she eat, well, she be talking up. So, one of those things. You got to know your body. You got to know your health. Now, me. I'm built different for some reason. Like, my body could go a long time without food. Like, even right now, it's been 40 hours and I ain't even hungry yet. You know, I could feel my stomach burning a little bit because of this workout. But when I get in the car, I'm going have a regular water and I'm going to have a lemon water, lemon perfect. So, I ain't fully all out full-fledged cuz that lemon perfect got a little bit of vitamins in it. But for me, it's no sugar. It has no sugar. It has no carbs. It only got two grams of carbs. So, my body not even going to recognize that cuz that's only 1% of your daily value of carbs. So, so 1% is 1 g is 1% of 100. So 2 g is 1% of 200. So basically they saying the daily value is 200 gram of carbs, which is a lot because on keto you can't have more than 10% of that. You can't have more than 20 grams when you're on keto diet. But all this stuff is hard. All this stuff is complex. Everybody thinks they know something. And that's why we can't really share what somebody else should be doing. We can only share what we do and advise other people to listen to their body, talk to their health professionals, and do what's best for you. because you'll do somebody else dying and end up dead. So, you got to be careful. I saw a young lady in the purpose pushers community. She posted that she was going through a lot in her body and she had went vegan and the vegan was like messing her up and her body was basically, you know, falling apart like kind of dying or something. she was saying to that effect and she said I posted somebody in my story which I didn't recall that but she said I posted somebody in my story that had to do with health and she said she started following the lady and she said she followed the lady for a year before she made any changes and then she made changes and she went to the carnivore diet I think she said and I tried that too I just get bored of eating just all meat And so she tried the carnivore diet and it healed her body. And so the thing is too with health a lot of times any change you make initially benefits you because your body is doing something different. So when I went vegan for two weeks I lost 10 lbs. I was excited about that. Another time in life I went keto for two weeks. I lost 10 lbs. I was excited about that. To go from 200 to 190 to where I could start to kind of see my abs a little bit at 190, I was excited. But then when I went back to my regular diet, not only did I get back to 200, but I crossed 200 and went to 210, which I had never been. And the reason why the body does that is because it doesn't know when you going to starve yourself again. So the body looking at like, man, hey man, you cut me out a lot of stuff now. Your butt been giving me carbohydrates and sugar and all of this. I done got used to functioning with that stuff. Now your butt want to go clean and you want to eat all this, man. I'm losing weight. So soon as you reintroduce that carbs or well not even carbs cuz vegan eats carbs but you know you reintroduce sugar or you reintroduce meat your body f to say hey yes sir we f to tear this up we f to get all this in our system all this going to get and we f to hold it on your behind cuz your butt lazy. I know you don't want to work out. So everything you put in here, I'm gonna hold on to it because I know you fa to come up with another diet soon and try to kill me. And so that's how your body go to react. So it can't just be something temporary. and A lot of times too, you know, y'all can't see my body cuz you see my face and my face will be puffy. Just depending on the angle I slept at, how soon it was I just ate. My body don't really change, but my face will change. If I done had too much sugar or too much salt, if I haven't been in my sauna, if I had alcohol, that'll show in my face. So it'll look like I'm overweight, but my body don't be done changed at all. It just you looking at me from the chest up and then when I go to fasting, then y'all be commenting about my cheekbone showing and this and that. But the thing about it is is it's all about too who you around. So, I'm around good food all the time and I'm traveling. You want to try the good stuff. So, when I'm traveling, man, shoot. I love me some soul food. So, I get into the little soul food restaurant. I love to go to a blackown establishment. And what they going to be serving? Soul food. So, I'm eating fried catfish or fried flounder, fried grouper, fried chicken. Then I got to hit that bread pudding if they got it. Whatever bread pudding they got, I got to hit that. Got to have that mac and cheese or collard greens. Good for you. Unless it's too much salt. Got to have them yams, them candied yam. You see what I'm saying? So I take and put all their weight right right back on. But I'm home for a little bit right now. So, got me a little bit of time to reset. And here's the thing, you have to do it for you. You can't worry about Don't get too caught up on revenge body. Don't get too caught up on thirst trapping fitness brand. Don't get too caught up on that. Get caught up on your health and wellness. Do it for your health and wellness. Do it because you want to do it. Do it because you need to do it. Do it because it's going to benefit you. And I'm going to tell you like especially for married couples, one of the things is what we struggle with in marriages and I've been coaching marriages for a long time is like especially when you different. So if you work out a certain way and your spouse work out another way, you got to be okay with working out alone. If you fast and you diet a certain way, you got to be okay with fasting and dieting alone. And that's one thing my wife has been good at. And I noticed that about my dad wife too. Like my wife, she go to her Pilates. I don't do Pilates. She'll eat her little weird food. I don't eat that little weird food like she eat cottage cheese. She love the red pickled onion. She love avocado, like mushrooms, mama cockake or whatever all that stuff. Everything bagel seasoning like she'll do that like avocado toast. Avocado got cottage cheese in it. Got that everything bagel seasoning. She'll have some diced tomatoes or onions. All kind of little stuff. Sliced up cucumbers. Like she love a variety of flavors. Me, eggs, and bacon. Some eggs, some bacon or some sausage. I'm good. I don't be going all that other stuff. I'm a warrior. We protein. we meat. And so you got to be okay with that. Like right now I'm fasting. That's the bane of my wife existence. She can't stand to think about fasting. But I got to do it for me. And that's what you have to do. Like you got to realize that just because you won as a couple, you still individuals. You're not ancestral. You don't come from the same mom and dad. Hope you don't or the same bloodline. So you got different blood types. You got different things that's advantageous. You got different things that's poison. And you got to learn that for you and your body. And you got to do what your body can do. So with me fasting, guess what? My wife, it's my wife birthday week. Saturday. Send her a blessing on cash out. Sheree a Gaskins. Got a a in the middle for her middle name. But so it's her birthday. So I'm fasting. Yesterday I ain't do no like workout. I did sauna and red light, infrared light therapy in the sauna and did the red light probably two or three times and then did the sauna and I had no food. Had a black coffee, a cold brew, black coffee, no unsweetened and then some water. Probably like half a gallon of water. I ain't drink too much water cuz I ain't had no food. So I would have washed out all my electrolytes. You got to know know your body. Can't drink a gallon of water when you fasting cuz you'll rinse out all your electrolyte. And so I drunk about a half maybe a little more than a half and three4s maybe. And so felt good. Couldn't sleep because body kicked in some energy. So it was time to sleep. Body kicked in the energy. I was up about 2:00. The body was ready to hunt. So, finally went on to sleep. Body got tired. Went on to sleep. I was going to have me a sleep tea last night and forgot. So, body got tired, went on to sleep. Had to wake up to do the call this morning. Woke up at actually woke up 3 hours late at 5:30. Sent out the email about the coaching sessions, discounted coaching sessions. So, that'll go out every day this week. probably go out one more day tomorrow because it's the price gradually going up each day. So, it'll go up again tomorrow. So, if you see this video on Tuesday, September 22nd, make sure you get on over there and you get that uh get your session. But remember, when you booking discounted sessions, it still goes into priority. So if I have a speaking engagement or something come up, I got to move you around or something come up with the family. So don't y'all get too set on your date and time, don't be looking too forward to it. Be flexible cuz my schedule is really crazy. So understand that coming in. A lot of people don't understand that. Think I just be sitting around by the phone all day. But I'm at the highest level of what I do. And a lot of people don't realize how much come with it. And so schedule is extremely crazy. So just be prepared for that. And so got up 5:30, sent that email, then went back to sleep, woke up 7:30 for the call. At 8, I got to sit and talk. So I get on the call and I just flow with the spirit, you know. I have me some notes, but I'll be flowing with the spirit and I have me some notes for the homework or a challenge that I give on the call Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Join the purpose pushers. You want to be on our 8:00 a.m. Eastern call, Eastern Standard Time, Florida, 8:00 a.m., 7:00 a.m. in Texas and Chicago, and that'll be 5:00 a.m. in California. So you can set your alarm 455, dial in, lay there, and listen while you still sleeping till it's time to get up. I'll probably put you back to sleep while I'm preaching at you for 30 minutes. And did that right there. Was going to go back to sleep, but I was woke. I was woke by that time. So I say, man, let me get on up, do a little bit of work, handle a couple little emails, answer a little questions on the purpose pushers, get that right there set up a little bit. Then I came on out here. I look, I see my wife was at the gym, our gym, 40 minutes away. So I ain't feel like driving 40 minutes. So I came to the to the bridge to the causeway. And now I'm walking this and got me a ways to go too. Oh my goodness. Got another probably 45 minute walk if I ain't mistaken. Oh no, 30 about 30 another 30 minutes of walking. So came on out here. This will be 10,000 steps now. About when I get done, Lord willing, I'll check my my iPhone and see. But got that right there. And when I finish this, I'm going go back home. I'm going to get me some lemon water. That lemon perfect, that's my that's my food right now. So, but my body can stay in autophagy because it ain't enough. It ain't no sugar. It ain't no carbs. So, my body will stay in that autophagy and keep on burning. And so I go home, shower, get to the office, then I'll film me. I get to the office, I'll film a YouTube video, which may not have to do cuz I'm filming this. So this will be my YouTube video. I get to the office, I'll upload this and then get me a few customer service emails done, personal emails done. And then from there, I could turn and I could turn and voila, taking hop on my calls. Got to text some clients, try to move some things around, move some calls around, and I'll be back to back all day from probably 2:30 to 10:30. I'll see who in California, move them to later in the day, East Coast, have them up earlier in the day and just do that. Get through all of that right there. Then I'm done. Ready to go. See this little guy walking. Oh, he with his woman. Get out the way. He was pointing back to somebody trying to tell them he go. We got him. But we just want to point somewhere. Black folks, God bless their heart cuz it's not cold out here and they got on jeans and full outfits. I guess they were driving by. Figure they'll stop and get them little walk in. Hope they recognize who I was. And y'all, I'm going to tell you something. One of the things I have to talk to the Lord about it, but right now the Lord has intertwined my purpose as my career. So what I do in purpose, that's also how I feed my family. So, YouTube pays me. Life coaching sessions paid me. Speaking engagements paid me. Author Consulting. Uh-oh. Author Consulting. I'm getting ready to cross the street to make sure I ain't see no bike. And here was a bike right behind me. and he driving up the middle in my turn radius versus way over to the side. So, had I not turned around to look back, I would have got ran over. And I just had a vision earlier about somebody running a bike, split up between the back of my legs and knocking me to the ground, skinning me up, and me having to flip them over this wall into this ocean for running into me. I just had that vision walking this way. And so this is how I feed my family, living my purpose. And that's what you doing when you working for God. When you working for God and God is the light, God is the source. God is who you pointing people towards and then you work around that. the ancillary things that you create streams of income and business and God gives you wisdom to get wealth and but not to be greedy. So the recession ready course right now is $25 which is still a steal because the information has earned me over 10 million. So, I hate to use the word dummy, but if you don't spend that $25 and go through that course, that's pretty much what you is. And y'all forgive me for that. But I just trying to tell you that's just how I'm instructed to give. 10 million plus worth of a blueprint for $25. So, get on over there to toninsacademy.com. get that. But do not just buy it to make yourself feel good. Do not just buy it to pat yourself on the back. Please go through every video and implement what you learn and let it change your life. It changed mine. If God is for you, it will change yours, too. Please, I'm begging you. Please. It could get you off that dead end job. See, I'm out of poverty, but I put myself in poverty because I give away so much money. I support so much of my family that you you work a regular job and you more liquid than me because I max out my gift. Whatever God bless me with, I don't hoard the money. I put it to use. I bless somebody. I buy some everybody a car. Everybody a house or apartment, which is basically a house. I put a roof over everybody head. Put a car in everybody household. Put people through school. Help school tuition. All of that. like I give, give, give, give, give. So although I make good money, I spend good money. So I got to trust God day by day just like you. I'm not just sitting over here swimming in cash, you know, because if I hoard it, that means it's idol. That means I'm worshiping it. So, I utilize it every single day so that I have to wake up and trust God again the next day. But I'm going to tell you something. It's not easy working in your purpose. It's not easy. And a lot of times God won't put you in a place to where you in a lap of luxury cuz then you'll drift away from them. So God will keep you to where all your needs is met. You don't lose nothing if you're obedient. But for most seasons, you're not just f to be in the lap of luxury. You gonna have those abundant seasons, but really what those abundant seasons is for what happened with Joseph. So think about it. If you had, we all had a lot of money in the pandemic. We was getting checks. We was getting stimulus. We was getting all kind of stuff. You was getting extra business. If you sell a product, you was getting more you was getting more sales because people had more expendable cash. Imagine if you put up all that expendable cash. How much smoother your life would be right now if you could divvy that out week by week as supplemental income. We didn't do that. If I would have did that, I could have stashed probably over I could have stashed over a million dollars from the pandemic. And depending on where your income and how you earn money, maybe maybe it's 5,000, maybe it's 10,000, maybe it's 50,000. If you got a business selling products, how much more sales did you do in the pandemic years than you doing now? And so that's what that's what we don't realize a lot of times with God is that a lot of time with God you can take and he blesses you with a feast and abundance not for you to ball out of control and to start worshiping material things. He blessing you because a famine is coming. So you got to remember with Joseph when God blessed with extra he told Joseph put up 20%. He told Joseph put up 20%. everything. So, I'm thinking about that right now and I'm like, man, what if I put up 20%. That year, that would have been this right here. The next year, that would have been this right here. Just 20%. Like, think about that. That's what God called us to do. And we fail at it. So we got to ask God is Lord please let me go through what I got to go through. Let me lose what I got to lose so that I can get the lesson because life is cyclical. It happened in cycles. So it's coming back around. What left is coming back. Resist the devil. He'll flee. But he don't flee forever. He coming back. He coming to test you again. So, and he tests you in different ways. So, it's like when Satan tests Jesus, he tested him oneonone monoemono in person. But the next but next when he tested him, you know, he tested him with the Pharisees. He tested him with Pontius Pilate. He tested him with all the people that was questioning him, saying, "Are you trying to say you the son of God? Are you trying to say you the Messiah? You sure you don't want to come off that stance cuz we could kill you?" And he would not deny God. He would not deny his father. He said, "Yes, I am who I said I am." Like, if you don't know it, you can't see it. That's cuz you're not my father child. And the only thing you could do to me is what my father has allowed, what my father has ordained. So in this season, I'm like, Lord, you do it. Like whatever I can't do, that's you telling me it's not meant to be done. But I know my first priority is my family. It's my wife and my two kids. You got to ask yourself, what are my first priorities? What's my priorities? So, I give my mama money every Monday, but guess what? If I ain't got it, I don't give it to her. You know why? Because I got to take care of my family first. I can't steal from my wife and kids to give to my mom who is an adult, who is healthy, can walk, can go get a job, who I bought a car, who she let my sister drive a car, who I bought a car as well, but she sold a car that I bought her, bought her another car. Now she driving the car I gave my mama. So that mean my mama can't go get no job. That's a personal choice. So she got to live with that. And the reason why I share my personal business with y'all so that y'all understand everybody going through the same things. A lot of people be like, "Oh, I couldn't be telling my business." That's why God didn't choose you. That's why God doesn't use you. That's why you on them people dead in job. Because God say, "I can't trust you to be transparent and to share the lessons that will help other people learn and grow and be better stewards of what I'm giving them or what I'm about to give them." So for me, this a season right here of learning because I feel in my heart I'm going to be a billionaire one day. And a billionaire doesn't mean I'm going to have a billion dollars. It just made me I will be worth a billion on paper. So like Tyler Perry and Jay-Z, they don't have a billion dollars in the bank. It just if they liquidated all of their companies and all of their assets, they could probably get a billion dollars. So I'm going to be that one day between my tech portfolio with the Destiny app, my mentor.life, life, Tony Gash's Academy, all of that. And so God is showing me as a millionaire, as somebody who has earned millions and who can earn a million in a year, God is showing me what it takes now. Because what the Lord is saying, if you can't manage what I'm giving you right now, you won't be able to manage what I can give you in the future. So that's why I try to tell y'all, and that's honestly why I made the purpose pushers, cuz y'all know my personality. The purpose pushers would be a free community where it would be $5 like the bless tribe. I made that $1.99. YouTube laughed at me. They was like, "Bro, this need to be at least $4.99." I made it $1.99. So, I try to help people who don't have much. But I made the Purpose Pushers community $47 because I'm learning something. For one, I'm learning that I have to stretch my mind. I'm learning I have to charge my value. I'm learning that because it's people who charge 49 a month and they haven't had 10% of the impact on the world that I've had and they charge 49 to $250 a month and they haven't had 10% of the impact. They haven't touched 10% of the lives and it's just because they know their value. So the Lord is showing me I got to charge my value, but also he's showing me I got to teach my people how to be better stewards of their finances. Because if you can't learn how to budget as an adult to afford $47 a month, that's going to bless you to the tunes of millions of dollars worth of knowledge and information, then you can't handle any type of blessing that God can even think to give you. Because if you can't afford to better yourself, if you can't afford to invest in yourself, then all you're going to do when God gives you more is just squander it. So for the few people that can join the purpose pushers, that's one of the things that they're going to learn in the community is they're going to learn how to budget their money. They're going to learn how to store up in the good seasons for the bad seasons. And that's what I'm learning right now. So, what I'm doing is actively I already have investments and stuff like that that I set up that's like auto withdraw, but then sometimes I have pause it in certain seasons. Sometimes I got to go withdraw from certain investments in other people company to invest in my company or my family. But what the Lord told me to do this week is start back actively building cash savings. Now they saying that they're going to hack the banks and all of that and all of that is possible, but if that happens, they're going to have to offset it. So if they do that, they're going to have to take and like kill the gas prices. They're going to have to cut off the toll roads. They're going to have to decrease the prices and everything. They're going to have to end property taxes. They're going to have to defer tax bills. Like if the banks actually get hacked, they're going to have to supplement us. and and then we're gonna find out the real truth that all they doing is printing money. So all they gonna do is just print more money and then be like, "Okay, yeah, so this is all fake. This is all just money that you printed up at the treasury and got us thinking that this is real. We just recycling paper and it's all monopoly." And so you that you'll see that when that happens. But I ain't worried about it because my treasure is in heaven. So for me, I'm not going to panic and go take all my money out the bank and put it in a safe cuz then guess what? A thief going to hear about that. Uh soon going somebody going to be at my house fixing. He going to see I got these safes. He going to tell one of his robbers and they going to see when we out of town and they going to try to break in and rob us. And so now that's why the Bible say don't store up your treasure on earth where it can rust and tarnish and moth. Store your treasures up in heaven. So money is just a tool. Money that's just a tool. And you got to realize and understand that and you use it like that and you treat it as such. That's all money is. But what you have to do is you got to steward it. And that's where I've been terrible at because I I I live, man. I believe in living. You see me? I I went to FIFA. I went to the FIFA game instead of paying bills. I went to FIFA in I went to FIFA in Toronto. I went to FIFA in LA. I went to FIFA in Houston. And I went to FIFA in Miami. You put all that together, that's probably Oh, and I went to the NBA finals. You put all that together, that's at least $30,000 that I could have paid bills with. But I live cuz you also get one life to live. But here's the thing, you got freedom of choice, but you don't have freedom of consequence. So if I spend 30,000 like that and then my finances get tight because my coaching courses, YouTube cut the money and now I can't pay my bills. I got to lose what I have to lose. If I got to turn turn in a car, I got to turn it in. If I got to sell a car that's paid off, I got to sell it. if I got to sell other little gifts and gadgets. I got a drone that ain't even open. I got the metal the metal glasses I ain't open. Like if I hit real hard times, I got stuff I could sell. All the designer items I done bought over the years, I could sell all of it. You see what I'm saying? But that's what you have to go through if you make certain choices. And that's why God in the story of the talents where the man who buried his talent, it was taken from him and given to the man who invested his. So you got to save and you got to invest. And what I'm learning in the book of Proverbs right now, because I'm reading the Bible in six months, what I'm learning in the book of Proverbs right now is not to cosign. The Bible said it more than once. I ain't even through the whole book, but I done heard it in two different chapters saying if you cosign for a friend, you need to go take your name off that cosign. You need to go uncossign. That what the Bible tell us. In Proverbs, it tell us to study the aunt cuz she worked without being told to work. She store up for winter. And I'm like, man, that's some good stuff. You know, it tell us not to be quick to be assurance for a friend, which is the co-signing. Tell us to flee from strange women. women who trying to entice us and lure us and have us come over to her house and tell us her husband out of town and try to talk to us and and it also tell you to stay out of gangs. It it tell you stay away from people who want to shed blood. People who want to just go out at night and shed blood. I'm like why is this why is Proverbs talking to the ys? I'm like that's crazy. like the Bible was written for the Yians. I'm like, who just want to go shed blood, Lord? I'm like, what was they getting into in the Bible? Like, my goodness. Like, why did Solomon write that? Like, people just out there thugging like that, Solomon. He say stay away from the people who they just want to go out at night on the town and shed blood and kill people. I'm like, that's what the thugs doing. That what they doing in Chicago and Memphis, LA, St. I'm like, man, that's crazy that the Bible talking to the thugs. So, imagine these boys go to prison and they started reading Proverbs. Proverbs slapping them right in their mouth cuz they was out there shedding all kind of blood. So, y'all, I still got me a good little way of another 10, 15 minutes till my car. So, that's what I'm reading. in the book of Proverb and I'm seeing all these lessons of wisdom and that's where we got all this wisdom at. It's right there in the Bible. So the season that I'm going into, I'm no longer living for my flesh. I'm no longer living for my desires. I'm no longer living for what I want. I'm living for what God want. The Lord showing me that like it also tell you that like if you trust in the Lord, you delight yourself in the Lord, like you work hard, you will be rich. I say those who delight themselves in the Lord will be rich. So, I don't know what rich means in the Bible terms, like if it's talking about in every aspect of life or is talking about rich in joy, rich in health, rich in peace, rich in happiness, rich in money, or if it just is all-encompassing because God is all-encompassing. So, I'm taking it as if it's all-encompassing that you'll be rich. So, it lets you know you'll be rich, but it's scriptures that offset the riches by telling you that you can't worship money and God by telling you that you shouldn't chase fast money, quick money. by telling you that you should have no other idols before God, telling you you shouldn't lie, cheat, steal, kill, commit adultery, commit fornication. So, it offsets the things that we would do with money. is telling us that we shouldn't get into lasciviousness, lascivious acts, which I think is like, you know what, Jeffrey Epstein and P Diddy get into telling us that we shouldn't be drunkers. Don't be a wine bibler. When you got a lot of money, drugs and alcohol become a lot easier, become a lot cheaper. It's like all that sidewalk and he can ride right beside me within arms distance. I could have punched him in the ribs. I felt the air on my leg. I don't like that kind of stuff there. And so it it it tell you how you can have abundance. You can have the desires of your heart. You have not because you ask not. According to your faith be it unto you. But it also tell you to store up for hard times. It also tell you to bless God. Honor God with your best, with your first fruits. And you have to seek discernment on what that mean. The church going to say it mean give them the money. But God may say that means paying your mom who is elderly, paying for her health care, paying for her mortgage, her rent, paying for her transportation. That's the hands and feet of God. Like you don't have to give your money to the church because the church wasn't even started until the book of Acts. So that's what Acts chapter 2 was. That's why the people did the conference. Acts 242 conference. So when the 10% was given in the Old Testament, they didn't even have no church. Jesus hadn't even came yet. in Proverbs where it say honor God with your first fruit, they were literally honoring God. Like they would take they first fruit and they would sacrifice it. Like they would pray, they would put it on the altar and they would sacrifice that. And so that's what a lot of people don't realize, like it wasn't even about taking no money to a church. And so people become so sacriiggious with tithing to where they'll make the church they go and they'll make a tithe their idol and they'll think that that tithe to the church is buying them salvation and buying them favor from God. And they treat it like playing the lotto or like a generous ATM. like, hey, if I give God this, I could fool God. I could trick God. And if I give him 10, he going to give me back a hundred. Even knowing that I'm not giving this honestly, cheerfully, willfully. I'm giving this as a snare. I'm giving this as a trip and a track to try to fool God to tell try to make God think I'm a cheerful giver so he'll bless me. God know all that that went through your head. God know that that pastor finessed you and told you that you going to be blessed according to what you put in his tithe and offering bucket and that you gave to get. You did not give to give. You did not give thinking about the children's church. You did not give thinking about the lights in the water in the church. You gave thinking about you getting double and triple and quadruple on your return because that's what that pastor got up there and lied about. And that's not how that work. God honors your heart. God honors your gift. God honors a cheerful giver. You could take your 10% and go down to the homeless shelter and say, "How many people y'all got here?" And they say, "We got 50 people." You take your 10%, go down to Five Below and buy 50 bed spreads for $10 a piece. Spend $500 and take that 50 bed spreads back to that homeless shelter. And God will see that more honorable than you being bamboozled and finessed by the crooked pack of the pastors in Atlanta or whatever city you in who just trying to get another Rolls-Royce. Point blank period. And a lot of y'all religiosity people who not even blessed by God want to argue about it. Hey, you have to be that. Hey, you has to be that. That's cuz you trapped by that. That's cuz you don't understand what the church is. You think the church is four walls. You think the church is a man standing up in a pull pit that you done fell in love with cuz you see him like your daddy. You see him as your God. So you think everything he say is gospel and you ain't even going to God for yourself. You ain't even reading the Bible for yourself. God is a spirit. Yes, he divinely inspired the Holy Bible, but everybody can't read. So how do God talk to people who can't read? How do God talk to people who can't hear? It's a spirit. God is a spirit. That's why the Bible say serve God in spirit and in truth. It don't say serve God in word and in letter. It say serve God in spirit and in truth. So that's why you have to have a word from God and a revelation from God on what you supposed to do. And that's why I stopped judging people ministry because I realized God called people for different things. So God got somebody on this marathon who they they a bunny rabbit for the first few miles. Then he got somebody who got the win and the energy to get to mile five and they get people from mile five to mile 10. Then he got somebody who's still going to have the win at mile 10 to get them from 10 to 15. Then he got somebody that's going to get him from 15 to 20. Then he got somebody who is the strongest, who he's called the longest, who he's equipped with the most to where they run to 20 miles. And at 20 miles, they still have the wind and the strength to bring people in and to encourage people them last six miles from mile 20 through the finish line at mile 26. And they even got the strength to carry somebody on their bike from mile 25 to 26. They could lift them up and hold them on their shoulder, hold them and and jog with them for that last mile. See, God equipped different people for different missions. So when I look at a brother like D1 the rapper, they say they said he said he struggled with fornication. But I realized that don't mean that God don't love him. That don't mean that God ain't called him. Even with the brother Anthony O'Neal, they say he struggled with fornication, but he helping people get biblically aligned with their finances. So yes, I'mma get on I'mma get on them about fornicating, but I'm also going to applaud them for the work that they are doing and trying to do because they may help somebody get from where they at to where they need to be. And then that person may have strength where they don't have strength. Somebody might leave this street. Somebody might stop listening to toxic rap music and they don't struggle with fornication. So they end up doing better than D1 because he helped get them that head start. Same thing with Anthony O'Neal. He might help somebody come out of debt when money had become their god. Money had become their idol. And so that's where I struggle at with money. I don't struggle with fornication. I struggle with money. So if I'm a bad steward of my money and I don't steward my money the way God tell me to or if I make money or things or material things of God or idol then I'm living in sin just like the man who living in sin and fornication and yes fornication can cost him more like STDs spiritually transmitted diseases sexually transmitted diseases babies out of wedlock abortions and things of the nature But me worshiping money or me miss spending my money. I don't worship money, but me miss spending my money, not being a steward, it renders me incapable of doing what God told me to do with the money he blessed me with. It hinders my growth. It hinders my ministry. And so what I'm doing now is group economics cuz I give well more than 10%. I give typically 20 to 30% of my income away. And so the group economics had a brother and brother I seen your email who wrote in he homeless right now and he spent all day in the in the cafe. I don't know where he's sleeping at, but he homeless right now. He lost his job. So, I'm putting the link in the description. And then I coached the lady who she gets a little bit of money, but it's not enough for rent. And so, she lost her rent. I mean, she lost her job and she's sleeping in her car right now. And that's what she told me. I have to take people at their word, but she paid for a session. and she in her car. She say she got a laptop and she got a phone, but she lost her place. Couldn't afford the rent. And so y'all, I finally made it back. 2 minutes late. Look, 2 minutes over. This bird got into this bag. He's been trying to get into this bag forever. And it's a bag of fruit. Might have got some pineapples out here. And so she lost that. So I told her and she in the bless tribe so she really supports me. So I told I'm put the link in the description and just pay attention for when I launch the fundraiser and everybody is struggling right now. So I'm not asking y'all to sacrifice. This is for y'all who single. You make high five figures or you make six figures. you don't have kids. I'm asking y'all to support us in this mission so that we could bless those and and be a resource. We may only be able to give a 100red to 500 per person that reach out, but for those of y'all facing eviction and stuff like that, we working on it. It it'll take a couple of weeks though cuz you can't just raise. When you raise, you also gota uh when you raise, you also have to um wait on it to process and it could take 5 to 7 days to process. So y'all forgive us for that. And so y'all y'all look, so I have my little fridge in here. See them two little lights right there? Y'all forgive all that dust. But got my lemon perfect and my water. And when I tell you that lemon perfect good. So y'all let me put a little electrolytes in me. I don't even know if that's electrolytes, but I'll be right back. I ain't going to drink it all too fast. Woo. Needed that. 12:05. I got the coach at 2:30. I got 2 and 1/2 hours. Just got to get home, shower, get dressed, get on up to the office. Listen, I'm trying my best. I'm trying my absolute best to help y'all in these times. I'm trying my best, but I cannot help you if you don't help yourself. I cannot help you if you don't do the work. So, please, by all means, please get in the recession ready course and finish the course. Take the course. It's $25. It was $5. If you missed it, if you procrastinated, it's $25. take the course and go through the videos and implement what I'm teaching in the videos. Please implement it. Please, please, please, please need you to do that. You have got to do that because social media is free. If you get on it and you use it, you're going to see a difference. You're going to be blessed. You're going to receive what God has for you. So, I'm begging you, please, please, please. I'mma do what they just did. Man, that's so cool. They came down in their truck and they went for a bike ride and now they back sitting on the truck eating good old sandwich. Bring my wife out here sometime and we'll do a walk instead of a bike ride and then come back and sit down and just just eat. Have us a little lunch, have us a little snack, little walking picnic. So understand what I'm trying to tell you. No trespassing sunset sunrise. So I guess can't be out here at night. But hey, bike in my car, headed to the house, y'all. I just be doing a little walk and talk and little motivation. Just little real life stuff to help me understand. And like and what I was telling you even like with my family, I want to wrap it up. what I was talking about, how I helped my mom, but she helped other family members. And so then she helped them and then she'll be tight. But then when she helped them and she get tight, I get tight. So when I get tight and I can't help her, now we both learn. We both learn when we helped when God said we shouldn't have helped. When God said, "This right here is for you and your household. I ain't give you enough for another household." But you gave out of ego. You gave out of obligation. You gave because you felt you had to give. You gave from the wrong heart. You gave for the wrong reason. You gave for the wrong thing. So now you got to suffer. so that the next time this come around, you know how to say no. You know when to say no. And so by me going through that, I learned the hard way how to say no to friends and family members. I learned how to say no. And it's painful. People don't like it. People don't understand it. They don't want to hear it. But it is what it is. You know, it comes with the territory. So when I learned that, I'm like, "Okay, it is what it is." Like I got to learn how to say no because so God can say yes because too God going to bless you and he going to give to you. But the thing about it is he tells us in his word. That's why in that word when you get in that word you see he tells us in his word that you can't sow on stony ground. Like he tells us don't cast pearls to swine. So if God blessing you and you giving money to a drug addict, even if the drug is just weed, even if the drug is just gambling, the drug is, you know, it's porn, only fan subscriptions, even if it's that like I'm in stressful times. I want me only fan subscription, but I can't do it because if I do it, then guess what? I can't I I lose my witness. I can't say I don't watch porn. And I be I love saying that. I be quick to say that. I don't want no war. I ain't never been to only.com. I'd be quick to say that. So guess what? Just how I'm built and who I am. I would not be able to come on here and say I've never been to onfan.com if I've actually been there or if I'm on there with a subscription. I wouldn't be able to say it. Like you'll see me like choke. Like I'll like stutter and I wouldn't be able to say it. And so I got to keep that side of me pure so that I could keep that in my story. I could keep that in my message. Keep that in my ministry. Keep that in what I'm doing, what I'm talking about. You feel me? And so that's where I I sit and I work on that right there. It's like, sir, I got over I got over and you going to get behind me. It's like, yeah, going somewhere with your butt. Take your butt where you got to go now. Riding on my tail. And so that what I had to realize. So you got to do what it take and you got to learn how to say no. You got to learn how to steward your money. And that's the season that we all in right now. Season we all in right now. It's certain subscriptions I need for business. I need for growth. So I can't have stars subscription right now. I can't have this subscription, that subscription right now because I got to subscribe to things that's going to help me grow. Got to be a part of things that's going to help me extend and grow. So that's what I got to focus on. That's what I got to work on. And that's what I want you to realize. Process, get to that place. Get to that point where you understand it.

If it can take you off your job, it can change everything that you're doing right now. And it's going to be painful to get there.
