It's that time. Yep. The title is not clickbait. It's time for the ninja to lose weight. I'm stuck in an airport in Montana, and I was going to make this video tomorrow, and I thought, why not do it here? It's always awkward when you're talking about this subject in front of people just walking by. But I wanted to tell you this because I thought about it, and a lot of people probably already know when I started the channel three and a half years ago, said I wanted to actually, my goal was to motivate people, to wake people up, to get people excited about life, teach them all kinds of things that maybe they didn't know before. And the conduit in which I was going to do that was through teaching people how to make money, how to grow wealth. Right? But I've always wanted to be a motivational speaker. I always told everybody. Ten years ago, I started saying, I'm going to be the next tony Robbins. So when I started the channel, it was blowing up. But so was I, quite frankly, it was Covid. I just blame other things. But the point being is that I've gotten too out of control with my eating habits. Drinking beer. I love beer. And it's time to take it to the next level. And I'm about to start making some really big changes in my life. Because, to be honest with you, I think that time is so darn short. Life is so short. And to make it to that next level for myself, to help motivate others, is I've got to also help motivate myself. And one thing that I'm really bad at is my weight. So I thought about it, and my life has always been go big or go home. So why not just make it totally public and show everybody what I'm going to do over the next three to four months? Just kicking this off. Then I have hundreds of thousands of people either keeping me accountable or making fun of me. But it's okay. I've got a tough skin. I'm a firefighter. And I got to say, tomorrow morning, I'm going to actually come out on a live stream and weigh myself live. So you get to see it. I'm going to start bringing out weekly videos telling you what I'm going to do, what my goal is. There's going to be a consequence if I don't hit my goal. And I'm going to do it live. Because, quite frankly, I think in this day and age, we need people that are real, not people that are fake. No editing no fancy trick photography, nothing like that. We need real people standing up and saying, hey, I'm going to go out there and put my neck on the line in hopes to help motivate someone or help someone else at the same time knowing that I need help. So tomorrow morning I'm going to go live, stand on a scale and tell you how much my goal is to lose weight in seven days. And yes, I'm going to have two cheat days, christmas day and New Year's Eve. And then after that I go cold turkey for months. There's going to be a lot of changes and I'm going to be very open with you about them because I think that people need motivation. And I will tell you this, I did this before New Year's because I want it to be sort of symbolic because we always, or at least I have do these New year's resolutions and then they sort of fizzle out and I always want to go one step further that go big or go home kind of mentality. So I'm going to start before New Year's day and take it to that next level. And you know how much pressure this is. This isn't like I'm asking a couple of people to keep me accountable. I'm going to be in front of a million people doing this. So while I'm stuck in an airport in Montana, I'm telling you that it starts at midnight tonight. That means I have like 8 hours left trying to look for some cheesecake. What was that? Someone's banging on the wall. No one can ever say that I go small, that's for sure. Anyone that knows me knows that I sort of do this kind of stuff and I've had a hard time sticking with a good eating regimen. I've been on the road so much. I have been so busy. Not only full time job as a firefighter, but also on the road doing ninja stuff. Right? Hold on. It's just water. I'm going to make a lot of big changes and I'm excited to share them with you soon. Some of them scare me, but I'm going for it. Some of them don't scare me, but it's the ones that you don't know if the goals that you can hit that are always scary to go for. And so I can't become that next motivational speaker if I haven't had those battle scars or tried the things that other people have tried and failed to be able to talk about. So this is a super short live stream. It's time to watch the ninja watch. Keep me accountable. I'm going to do a weekly video starting tomorrow, weighing myself, giving a goal, and then there'll be a consequence if I don't hit that goal. But I'm going to do it live. And if any of you guys want to join me, gentlemen or ladies, feel free. That'd be pretty darn cool if we can get a million people running around saying we're all going to lose weight and get in the best shape of our life in 2024, because we're going to need that extra energy to deal with all the crap that's about to come in 2024 more, especially as these elections get closer. Hope you had a great day. Have a great day. I'm going to go get stuck a little bit more in the airport. The economic ninja is out. Bye. .
