  1. “If you're a creator, you can submit brand deals to you and there's a whole form where you can just type in the ask, check it out. If you're an influencer, it's a great tool to negotiate with brands. Socialbluebook.com is really cool.”

  2. “I'm Shei Carl on all the social medias. You can follow me on Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, Shay Carl. I just wanted to talk about a website called Social Blue Book that I'm really excited about right now. That's like the thing I'm really excited about blowing up right now. It's a place that influencers can go to find their value. If you find yourself with 5,000 Twitter followers and there's a brand that wants to pay you to promote their product and you have no idea what to charge them, you can go to socialbluebook.com and you can log in through your Twitter, Facebook, YouTube, and they'll give you real values of what your tweets are worth if you made a video for somebody promoting a product. It'll give you your value based on statistics like watch time, thumbs up, comments, interaction. And it also has a great tool where you can submit or brands.”

  3. “Working. And all of a sudden, I looked up at the clock and it's 5 45. I'm like, I just stayed 45 minutes past. So quit procrastinating, dive into the hard stuff and allow yourself to make a mistake. Like you're going to mess up and just never quit. Keep going.”

  4. “Get used to work and fall in love with it. Find those things that you hate and find those things that you dread and embrace them. And once you do that, there's no fear left because you've kind of allowed yourself to go into the dark. And it reminds me of one quick story. I remember when I was working at the granite shop, dude, 430 was the worst time of day because those last 30 minutes would just drag on and I would stare at the clock like 30 more minutes, 29 more minutes, 28 more minutes. You've done it in school or you've watched the little hen move slowly. And one day I was like, why am I just dreading this last 30 minutes every day? It sucks to hate. Like we talked about hate this 30 minutes of my life. And so I remember one day where I was like, I'm just going to clean this shop. I'm going to turn on some music in this last 30 minutes. I'm just going to clean this shop. And I hated clean this shop because it was a mess. And all the other guys would just throw silicone tubes on the ground. It would piss me off. So I just started going to work. I just started.”

  5. “I mean, I just, it's this same conversation that we've been having is take a look at your life and know and have hope that you can make it whatever you want it to be and then just go about, you know, the task of doing it. And it's through hard work, through reading, through experience. The real success is in the doing of the thing. So you can say and listen to a bunch of stuff, but to make action, to do stuff, to get up early, to make your bed, doing the hard things is what will bring you success.”

  6. “Make excuses for yourself, right? Where, like, well, or maybe you're not even conscious of some of the things that you're doing or saying, or if you're rude to somebody, maybe you don't even realize that you're doing that. But if you're able to step out of your body in a sense and look at yourself from a third person point of view, which is I've been able to do much more because I've edited myself for so long, I'm able to see the things that I'm saying and then tell myself, you shouldn't say that because of this and this and this. It's hard to explain, but like almost try to picture, you know, as you sit there, close your eyes and imagine that you are standing behind yourself and that you're looking at the back of your head. And that is a practice that you can do to kind of help pull yourself out and become an observer of your life. And that's when I think there's power to be like, well, I shouldn't have done that. This is good. I should do that. And then, you know, you can.”

  8. “And it's short. It's like 100 pages. And there is so much truth in the fact that everything that you do physically starts as a thought in your mind. So if you don't want to become whatever, don't think about those things. And if you find that you're thinking about a certain thing, that's going to manifest itself physically eventually. Your thoughts are a very, and sometimes people get crazy thoughts, right? Like sometimes you might think you're crazy because of all the stuff that comes in your mind, but you have to be conscious. And it takes self-discipline.”

  9. “Stephen Covey says, you know, begin with the end in mind. And so I think having this eternal perspective where you're thinking about the timeline of your life, where you came from, where you're going, who you want to become, you can kind of like delve into certain moments in that timeline. specifically the past because you can see where you've come from but just thinking futuristically in the sense where okay what am i going to you know what are probably my suggestions to myself in five years from now and then start living those things i think you're going to exponentially you know grow faster than you would have it's all about measuring right it's all about a measured life about being conscious of your decisions about looking at your attitudes about what you think talking about books i mentioned earlier as a man thinketh is to me one of the most powerful books that you can read”

  10. “That's what I mean. What you just explained is exactly what I was going to suggest think about how old you are right now and think about being a 10 year older version of yourself and then think what would I probably tell myself as an older version of myself. And that is the wisdom that I think you found in that exercise. You know”

  11. “I was listening to the last podcast with Micro and hindsight, I say, is not 2020, it's 4K. Hindsight is 4K for the internet kids out there. 25, where was I when I was 25? We had just had our first kid. I think Colette was pregnant. That's right when I dropped out of college. Maybe I would have said drop out of college sooner. But I don't think I would change anything. I think I agree with Mike Row in the sense that I would tell myself, don't worry, it's going to be okay. Things are going to work out. And I love that question because it's like, it's easy to think, well, what would I tell my 25-year-old self? So then I think, well, if I'm 45 and I'm asked that question, what would I tell my 36-year-old self? This is.”

  12. “I mean, family is on the decline. I think the foundation to our society is the family. Like we all, whether you like it or not, all come from a family. We are all from a mother and a father, whether you know who that person is or not. But I do. I mean, I'm softening saying this now because I don't want to like offend my kids or make people think I don't love my kids. But yeah, like my relationship with my wife is way more important because guess what? The kids are going to leave. They're going to turn 18 and leave the house. And then it's just going to be me and my wife. So if we've let them come between us and all of a sudden the kids are out of the house and it's like, oh, we don't have a very good relationship because, you know, the kids have like drove this wedge between us all these years. It's going to be a crappy situation. So me and my wife's relationship is most important. And I think our kids know that.”

  13. “My wife and I's relationship isn't more important than my kids and I relationship, but they need to know how strong that is. They need to see that mom and dad are solid. And so a lot of times me and Colette consciously make decisions to not let our kids come between us. So we never do the like, go ask your mom, go ask your dad. It's like me and her need to come up with a decision and we are a united front that then goes and informs the kids on if they can do such a”

  14. “And teaching them that death isn't something to be feared, but life should be lived to the fullest because you're going to die. And I just love conversations like that because to me, that's what has real meaning. Because to me, the things that matter the most last the longest. And to me, families are forever. I believe that my wife and I will be joined in holy matrimony for all time and eternity. In traditional wedding ceremonies you'll hear until death do you part. And I'm like bullshit. No, why would you part at death? So that's kind of where I come at it, you know, and that's what I teach my kids. I teach them that I married this beautiful daughter of God who I cherish and who is their mother and I even so far my relationship to my wife is so important to me that and I don't want my kids to know that she's a”

  15. “You're going to die someday, or maybe I just have it say you're going to die. And that seems gruesome, but having a healthy understanding, and my grandpa taught me this, my grandpa would always talk about when he died. In fact, he bought his coffin five years before he actually died. And so when people would come over, he would take them down into the garage and show them his coffin. And I remember like getting in it, you know, so like I've been in my grandpa's coffin.”

  16. “And we say these words and we take turns. And I'll say, Gavin, we say the prayer this morning, Avio, we say the prayer this morning. And that's one thing that my wife and I have tried to focus on before we send our kids out the door every morning is we want to have a family prayer. We'll kneel down. And sometimes it's seven in the morning and I'm still asleep and they'll come in to say the morning prayer and I'm still laying in bed and they'll all just like kneel at the foot of the bed and I'll get up and like roll over like, okay, I'm ready to pray. I'm ready. And we'll say our little morning prayer. And I think it just gives us a good tone. It helps my kids have an eternal perspective, which I think all people should have. We should always be conscious of we came from somewhere. Now we're here on this earth. And then we're going to go somewhere, which is, I guess your next rapid fire question, if I could put anything on a billboard, what would it be?”

  17. “Definitely. And it's only evolved, you know, since like my three oldest are all in school now, but I used to sleep in till 10 or 11. But it's rare if I'm in bed after 8 a.m. now, because either Zeke is with his giant great Dane snout right in my face with his stinky breath, or the kids are running in, you know? And two out of seven days of the week we have a kid that ends up sleeping with us because they had a nightmare or something. And I'll just wake up and there's a kid in our bed because they came in during the middle of the night. But we pray every morning before the kids go off to school. We kneel down as a family and we say a prayer. And whether you think that's crazy or not, I mean, think about just the aspect of having kids, because in the prayer we say what we're grateful for. We're thankful for our health. We're grateful for our house. We're grateful for each other. Help us to be kind, help us to be loved.”

  18. “Yeah, I don't see. In fact, if you go on YouTube right now, you can see a guy who was built a platform out of these quadcopters and he can stand on it with a hand control and fly standing on top of like six quadcopters that he built out of this platform. So it's going to get real jetson-like here pretty soon. It's coming in the next five years.”

  20. “Here's what I would say unless you can run 23 miles an hour, be very careful. Because if you're going to hit a rock or something, and if you're going 22 miles an hour, you're going to eat your face. The reason I bring up the boosted board is because I'm just so excited about the power of batteries. Batteries are getting so much stronger. You see with all those hoverboards that all the YouTubers are writing, now these electric skateboards that can take you up a hill, that's magic to me. Like me and my brother growing up, it's like if we could have something like that, we'd have gotten in so much trouble.”

It comes auto default to the slow setting. Right. Because I was trying to turn it up to the fast setting. I'm like, how do I get into the instructions?”

  23. “Dude, I'll tell you a movie that's coming out that I saw at the Sundance Film Festival. I don't know when it's coming out, but it's called Captain Fantastic with Vigo Mortensen. And it's a story about a father who is kind of sick of society and he takes his, well, the mom and the wife of the family has passed away. And I won't tell you how. And so he takes his kids into the forest and they like live off the land and he teaches his kids everything he knows. He has all these books. And part of the movie is like, you know, he doesn't want to go back into society. Anyways, I saw it at Sundance. I bawled my eyes out, looked for it in theaters. I don't know when it's even coming out.”

  24. “Yeah, a transcendent man was very interesting to me. I'm a huge Morgan Spurlock fan. He just helped me make a documentary that we're working on. Well, it just premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. It's called Vlogumentary. It's a documentary of this YouTube world and how creators like me have made a living making videos on the internet. So I'm a big Morgan Spurlock fan. Forks over knives, if you want to get into health, is a great documentary. I'm sure everybody's been on Netflix. What's the other one that's like that? Forks over knives.”

  26. “To me, when I have a crisis of faith where I'm like, what if God doesn't exist? Like, what if this is all made up? What if we die and we're just worm food? Like, that stresses me out to think about that because I feel I've worked so hard on my relationships with my wife, with my kids, building this family for it to end in dust isn't okay with me, right? Even to the point where this is where I've said to people, if you don't believe in God, you should believe in the technology that's going to make us immortal because that Facebook page that I was just explaining, it lends to immortality for humans like in the next 10 to 20 years where we can print off organs, we can 3D print livers, we can embed chips into our body now. Like we're getting into all that kind of stuff. So to me, that doesn't.”

  27. “There is a chapter I believe it's Alma. I'm a bad Mormon. I should know this. Alma 2. I'm looking up on my phone right now. There's a prophet by the name of Alma, which I think is, the reason I'm going to suggest this is because it's actually a science experiment that you can do on spirituality. Where in this, it's like a parable, well, it's a story in Alma 2 where he talks about Least, if you don't believe in God, the first place to start is have a hope that there's a God. I just think like, well, what if you could make up whatever you wanted and it was true, which obviously is not what I'm suggesting, but”

  28. “Freed me up to have the courage to try something new. So I always recommend Dave Ramsey and his books. If I think about it, the book that I've given out the most is The Book of Mormon because I was a missionary for two years and that's all I did is pass that book out. And I think it has value, whether you believe it, it's scripture, like the Latter-day Saints believe, or if it's just a made-up book that was written by Joseph Smith, there's stories in there that really will help you learn how to have faith in yourself, have faith in something greater than you, have hope in the future of an eternal life.”

Just about getting out of debt, cutting up your credit cards, that concept freed me up early on in my marriage and in my career to do things like move to Los Angeles and start this crazy company called Maker Studios because I didn't have debt, because I didn't have all these bills, I didn't have a car payment, I didn't have a, well, I did. I did have car payments and student loans and all of that stuff because I read one of the very first books I ever read was Robert Kiyosaki's Rich Dad Poor Dad. And that was all about OPM. Use other people's money. Leverage other people's time. And you talk a lot about that in the four-hour work week. But to me, it was so stressful to have debt. And it was like, not if you could afford that, but could we fit that monthly payment into our budget? You know, we bought furniture 90 days same as cash. All that rat race stuff, by getting out of all of that, it...”

  36. “Well, because a lot of times you need to be reminded of that stuff. Like, you'll go and you'll listen to those books, you'll be like, oh, yeah, why am I not doing that? I know that. When I do those things, I feel happier. There's just little things that we, like we talked about earlier where humans are prone to follow the path of least resistance. And if we're not conscious about our decisions and we're not every day making specific choices to become better, we'll slowly start to slide down. We will get worse. So you have to be conscious every day of what am I going to do with my life? How do I want my life to be? What kind of person do I want to be? And just having those conversations with you. But I love audiobooks. Anytime I can multitask, mow on the lawn, I listen to your podcast all the time. I have an audible subscription. I listen to Audible. Any audiobooks I can find.”

Think about the things that you liked when your parents did. Think about the things that you didn't like, what your parents did, and change those things. And I think that's a generational thing. Each generation does better or tries to do better than before. You know, I hear stories from my grandma about how poor they were, you know, and how they had to really make sacrifices to make ends meet. And it's just like each generation tries to do better. And I would say those are some good tips. Just try to remember what it was like when you were a kid. Try to implement those things”
