what do you mean we’re not going to prom
00:01
it is the most
00:03
important night of high school i know
00:04
but i have snakes i don’t
00:06
care what is wrong with you russell
00:08
everyone is going
00:10
have you ever tried to do it all but
00:12
then have it backfire in your face
00:14
in high school wrestling was my passion
00:15
but i also want to do the things that
00:16
normal high schoolers were doing
00:25
hey russell a bunch of us are going to
00:27
the mall you want to come
00:29
sorry guys i have practice
00:40
[Music]
00:43
you okay can we go out tonight
00:46
i got that big wrestling tournament
00:48
coming up um maybe next weekend
00:52
[Music]
00:54
why don’t we stay inside and we can
00:56
watch my wrestling tape
00:58
and i’ll explain my moves to you and
01:01
trying to juggle wrestling with the
01:02
girlfriend
01:03
and his arms didn’t go so well
01:06
we all feel this pressure to be well
01:08
balanced to put equal focus on
01:10
everything
01:10
but sometimes when you’re working
01:12
towards a goal you have to be radically
01:14
imbalanced
01:15
i probably shouldn’t have been dating
01:16
while i was so focused on wrestling but
01:18
i also don’t regret being unbalanced
01:19
that focus allowed me to get a college
01:21
scholarship and all the wonderful
01:23
experiences that i had there
01:25
when i started college i moved into uh
01:27
the dorms with a whole bunch of other
01:29
wrestlers so we had an apartment with
01:30
five other wrestlers besides myself when
01:32
we get done wrestling we were always
01:33
trying to figure out who the cute girls
01:34
we could hang out with there was an
01:35
apartment with some really cute girls in
01:36
it i think because i wasn’t trying to
01:37
find a relationship i was more natural
01:39
and clint and i really got along and it
01:40
was until one day her roommate kind of
01:42
pulled me aside and said you know that
01:43
she likes you right
01:46
seriously yeah she’s not into joey at
01:49
all
01:49
listen to you at the time i was like oh
01:53
my gosh that’s crazy
01:54
but i think someone’s older than me how
01:55
do i impress someone that’s older than
01:56
me and so
01:57
i hadn’t had a ton of experience asking
01:59
older women on dates and so i did what i
02:02
[Music]
02:06
knew
02:08
[Music]
02:21
[Applause]
02:23
dude are you sure this is how you want
02:25
to ask her out oh yeah
02:27
this is how i asked out every girl in
02:28
high school i got toilet paper and
02:30
toilet paper to room and we shredded up
02:31
newspaper and put it all over the room
02:32
and just made a huge mess
02:33
oh don’t forget the candy sign it’s kind
02:36
of embarrassing looking back on it now
02:37
but i made a candy bar poster which
02:39
basically is a big poster where you glue
02:41
candy bars
02:42
in for different phrases so i said dear
02:44
sweetheart and put sweethearts in there
02:45
and then we think about going on a date
02:47
and have some dates there with the
02:49
junior mint like me and i hope you don’t
02:51
stick her
02:52
it’s so embarrassing to be documented a
02:54
day or two later i get i got a knock on
02:56
the door
02:57
and i opened the door and there was a
02:58
poster there and i opened the poster
02:59
there was poster britney spears with
03:01
colette’s face cut out
03:02
and had her face on brittany where
03:03
britney spears face was and basically
03:05
said yes i’d love to go out
03:06
on this date and so that’s how we got
03:08
our very first date
03:11
hi uh i was in the neighborhood
03:16
and
03:19
but when i’d met colette i knew that i
03:21
met the girl that i wanted to marry
03:22
so while wrestling was still my passion
03:24
i made sure that all my free time
03:26
was spent trying to win her over
03:32
by shifting that radical balance away
03:34
from wrestling for a time
03:35
it allowed our love to blossom in a way
03:37
that it couldn’t have otherwise
03:38
radical imbalance was going after one
03:40
thing with all of your heart
03:41
it worked out for me and colette after
03:44
clinton i got married you know things
03:46
shifted a little bit but obviously
03:47
wrestling was still a huge passion for
03:48
me
03:48
it was paying for school and so because
03:50
of that we knew it was still something
03:51
that was a big priority
03:52
around this time i was trying to cut
03:54
weight for a tournament so winning
03:55
wouldn’t be the only thing that i stayed
03:57
hungry for
03:58
are you sure you don’t want me no
04:01
no i’m good radical imbalance isn’t
04:04
possible without making sacrifices
04:06
but you have to decide what can i
04:08
cultivate now so it can continue to
04:09
bloom
04:10
when i move on to other things when we
04:12
started click funnels that was another
04:13
major
04:14
time of radical imbalance
04:19
i saw the light on i figured you had to
04:21
still be up
04:25
and brought you some cocoa honey
04:28
i’m sorry for these long nights and
04:31
around this time
04:32
i was pulling late nights to catch up on
04:33
coffee for the funnel i know
04:36
just come to bed when you can okay
04:40
i was going to bed around 4 00 a.m every
04:42
morning to keep click funnels up and
04:43
running and my partner todd
04:45
would take over when i got to bed so we
04:46
were working around the clock to keep
04:48
clickfunnels successful
04:49
i was missing out on some major family
04:50
moments but the work i was doing was for
04:52
my family
04:54
when my twins started wrestling i had to
04:56
shift my time at work so i could coach
04:57
them at practice
04:58
so that also meant that i had to find
05:00
those work hours somewhere early in the
05:02
morning or late at night but with the
05:03
extra time that i put in at nights i can
05:05
manage to take the extra time for my
05:06
kids
05:08
here we go ted fellas it’s a nice job i
05:11
got to lock up
05:12
can we get a picture though yeah no
05:13
problem all right
05:17
if you want to create something great
05:19
you have to be imbalanced for a while
05:20
then when you’ve achieved your goals you
05:22
can come back and enjoy the fruit
05:24
so leave behind the guilt that you feel
05:26
remember the imbalance is just for a
05:27
little while allow yourself to go there
05:29
and create the success that you deserve
05:44
[Music]
06:05
i’ve been through changes
06:08
all of my life started
06:11
from zero with nothing behind
06:16
feels so right
06:21
this feels so right
