MrBeast and a guest discuss how people call ambitious grinders crazy until they win, then call the same behavior genius. The guest did relentless phone outreach for recruiting while others criticized him. Success flipped how people saw what he'd always been doing.
You're crazy until you're successful, then you're a genius. I think for a lot of people, when you know you're grinding, people think you're too obsessed, you're a weirdo, stop only making videos, like get a life, be realistic. And people will convince you you're out of your mind for wanting to do this. But then once you're successful, they're like, yo, your drive, your tenacity was great. But it's like, yeah, well, where was that back then? You know, I didn't get that when I was a small channel. And so I think you're crazy until you're successful, then you're a genius.
I don't know if anybody calls me a genius, but I remember early on, and I was on the phone phone a lot, especially recruiting. I'd be at events and family things and games and all kinds of stuff, school event, everything. I was on the phone all the time, and everyone used to give me shit. I would just ignore it because I would step out of all kinds of events to go take calls and train agents and recruit all kinds of stuff. It is funny now, it's a very different perspective. The same people give me today because they've got to watch how it's changed over the years. So super, super glad I was around really good people that helped me see the vision that I was doing the right thing.
