In order to be successful, you must know how to sell yourself and your product by being quotable and outrageous

I always knew how to sell. That's why one of the chapters in my book... is Sell, sell, sell. Because it's all about how do you sell something... you had to be kind of like really way out there of the things that you say, so that it's quotable, and people would say, oh my God, I got to write a story on this guy.

This is Arnold's personal business strategy which proved highly successful for him.

Joe Flacco is officially elite

Joe Flacco is elite. He is fucking elite. And the Cleveland Browns clincher playoff spot. Yes. And watching this game, the, the thought occurred to me, what if we had a Browns line, super Bowl?

While Flacco played exceptionally well to lead the Browns to the playoffs, 'elite' remains a subjective and often meme-based descriptor for him.

I have more confidence in the 2023 Browns with Joe Flacco than I would if Deshaun Watson were still healthy

I feel so much more confident about the Cleveland Browns in 2023 than if Deshaun Watson had played the whole season. I can't believe I'm saying that sentence, but I fully believe it. Like I think Joe [Flacco], with how he's playing right now, is the perfect guy for this.

This is subjective, but Flacco did lead the Browns to a playoff berth before losing in the Wild Card round.

If Joe Flacco wins the Super Bowl with the Browns, he must be a Hall of Famer

What if Joe Flacco wins? If Joe Flacco wins the super Bowl with the Browns, he has to be a Hall of Famer, right? Has to a hundred percent.

Flacco did not win the Super Bowl with the Browns in 2023; they lost in the Wild Card round.

Having a clear vision is the most important tool for success in life

I put this number one in my book, be useful because I think that vision is the most important thing. If you don't have a very clear vision of what you want to accomplish in life, and if you don't have a very clear vision where you want to go, you don't have anything, you're just kind of like drifting around.

This is a philosophical opinion from a highly successful individual.

Admitting your mistakes is the only way to learn and improve

You learn, you know, sometimes even more from the failures than we do from the successes. And so we have to be very honest, when you fail, you have to be very, very honest... You've gotta go and just look in the mirror and say, you fucked up and here's what you did wrong. And then analyze it, and they take the blame for it.

Subjective life advice.

The world is heading toward the AI future depicted in the Terminator movies

As we went on with time, decade after decade, all of a sudden I realized, oh my God, we are actually going in that direction. And what Jim Cameron wrote about is going to happen, you know, that the machines are now so sophisticated, so far ahead of human way of thinking that they are so far ahead.

While AI is advancing rapidly, whether it follows the exact 'Skynet' path remains to be seen.
