How do you control momentum? How do you effectively convert movement into success? Whether it is learning how to focus on the benefits instead of the work or celebrating the small steps as victories, Andy Frisella shares his insight for how to get your life and/or business moving in the right direction. 

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 skills, empathy, and building relationships are essential for success in all areas of life. Andy Frisella and Sal Frisella discuss the importance of sales skills, sharing personal experiences and anecdotes. They emphasize the value of empathy in sales interactions and the significance of building relationships. The speakers also highlight the importance of focusing on the benefits of a product instead of just its features. Additionally, they discuss supporting a young woman battling cancer through a short story and express gratitude for support and future podcast ideas.

"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.

There's so much craziness in the world. People are stressed out about everything from ISIS and environmental disasters to gun violence and racism. The truly great, successful people know how to be surrounded by this craziness and keep their cool.  They know how to live in the middle of this chaos and still get sh*t done. The MFCEO knows this is a tough task, but he believes it can be done. In this episode, he shares his thoughts on how to do it.

"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. Everybody has disadvantages.  Everybody faces adversity. Success is hard for everybody. So stop making excuses and get sh*t done now.

What tools does The MFCEO use to pursue success?  In this episode, Andy Frisella gets down to the nuts and bolts, outlining his daily practices for maintaining vision, setting goals, dealing with criticism, turning adversity into an asset, and more!

All successful people have at least one thing in common: They know how to make an impact on other people. Whether they are talking to the President of the United States or the bellhop at a low budget hotel, they know how to be friendly, engaging, and how to provide an amazing experience, life-changing experience.  In short: They know how to be memorable.

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. Ungrateful people who compare their situation to others and complain are destined to accomplish nothing. No matter who you are and what your background is, you can choose to make the best of the life you have been given.

This is part 2 of a 2-part series. The MFCEO hears this all the time: “Andy, I’m passionate and hard-working. But I just don’t know what to do with my life.” While he’s addressed this issue in Snapchat and Periscope in short segments, he’s never unpacked his thoughts in a systematic, comprehensive way.
