From my own personal experience: 1. Make yourself irreplaceable. Figure out how to do something not many people can do and do it really well. 2. Write a book one word at a time. First you have a word, then a sentence, then a paragraph, a chapter, and before you know it you have a novel. Great stuff Mike. I love your channel.

Sounds to me Michael, like a good Consigliere is a “no man” rather than a “yes man”. Which is exactly something my Grandad talked about a lot, that a good businessman needs to have a few no-men. Guys who aren’t afraid to tell you your idea isn’t great.

Most favourite video yet....thanks Michael for these amazing business lessons ... We want more videos like this.👍👍especially the story about spots was amazing.

A great life's lesson: "What the hell's he doing in his bathrobe at eleven o'clock?"

Mr. Franzeze, your content really is some of the best content on youtube. Your perspective on life is very rare considering where from where you came from. Nothing but respect sir and thank you for sharing your life lessons/experiences with us 👍

I get more information about life and other things that actually matter in real world than most of my teachers Hats off Mr.Michael Keep up the good work ♥️

Love this Michael sending love from cape town south Africa God bless!!

What is really remarkable is that I hear this kind of advice all the time, but hearing it here, with the stories, the wording (don't get killed in your pajamas, love that), it sticks so well. I'm seriously never going to wake up late ever again after learning this. Heck, I'm going to hang this advice up on my wall (you could consider making framed posters with this stuff!)

Mr. Mike, this video changed my whole perspective. I've had a bad run of luck lately, but you talking about how you have to have a plan changed a lot. I have a plan, and now I'm well on my way to seeing it through. Thank you.

I dont read comic books at all, but all his short histories they are pictured in my mind as comic drawing... This is Amazing!

My dad passed away earlier this year and it hit me really hard because I can talk to my dad for life advice or anything else. I thank God I have Michael Franzese to get advice; like a spiritual or virtual father if I may say.

I'd love to see and hear more of these type of episodes, I just opened a landscaping business in florida 2019 the market has so much potential, and I'm literally taking notes from this mans ideas. thanks mike

Always lifts my day up when Michael’s new videos come out

You remember the line from "Moneyball?": "Scott, you're not a catcher anymore!" Well, "Michael, you're not a mobster anymore!" Thanks for your content.

“Piss Poor Planning leads to Piss Poor Performance.” That’s what I was taught in the Marine Corps.☝️🥴

I always try to make an effort to watch all uploads from Michael every chance I get. You never know when we may not get another video from this wise gentleman.

Love the consistency of uploads! Sending a lot of positive vibes

That book was incredible i read it in one day n I keep going back to it for valuable information

Thank you Micheal. Love the stories but I would like to hear more business tips from you

Beautiful advice. I've followed these rules throughout my endeavors and these seemingly simple tactics kept me safe, one step ahead of society, and most importantly kept that fire burning. That desire to conquer your life can either grow or burn out. Keeping the fire burning is the #1 rule that trump's all else 🔥

I love you Mike. In one of Your vids, you taught me something that has been Soooo Darn Helpfull I cant Thank you enough. "Please, Thankyou, I'm sorry, or Excuse me." So simple BUT Made Such a Difference and still Continues to do so. Again Thank you Michael

This Podcast is really interesting, and watching it makes time at work fly bye. I'm a BBQ cook, in one day I carry, season, & cook 2 Cows, 1 pig, and like 5 chickens. Because I'm listening to this bad ass podcast... I avoid, drama, avoid boredom, and avoid getting blasted In my pajamas. Thank You.

I've always said criminal activity can be better than any business school

This was an excellent video Michael 👍 . Very educational and entertaining at the same time. “ I’ll cut to the chase.” I can see why you have loyal fans from all walks of life!

brother your a natural businessman ,its in your blood ,also your personality draws people to you , very classy and respectful

Neat biz advice. I'd like to hear more & get the book sometime.

"...and nobody missed a payment." Oh, Mike😂 You jokester.

Thank you for sharing advice from your personal experience. Very practical! Enjoy the stories connected to the teachings, and the humor as well.

This is why I Love Mike ... Right to the point!! How many times have we watched videos .. Giving life lessons (good, bad, otherwise) and your twenty minutes into it, wondering what the hell your even talking about because they’ve rambled so far off point. Not on this channel!! Mike sets it up..maybe spends a minute letting you know what’s in the works .. And then gets right to business. Thank you, Mike for all the great work. You’re one of the most fascinating people I’ve ever come across.

Who could’ve thought I’d be getting business advice from a former mobster turned Man of God? Life is full of surprises. You may have been a Caporegime of the Colombo family, but you’re OUR Consigliere now Mr Franzese!

“When you go through deep waters, I will be with you. When you go through rivers of difficulty, you will not drown. When you walk through the fire of oppression, you will not be burned up; the flames will not consume you.” ‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭43:2‬ ‭NLT‬‬ Great advice Michael. Have a blessed day everyone.🙏🙏🙏

Michael you are truly an inspiration. The way you have changed your life around without testifying against anyone is amazing. Btw did you ever think of having a sitdown with Sammy Gravano?

I love this man! His life advise is priceless. Don’t get killed in your pajamas I promise I will never forget that

Much love Mr franzese I hope your doing well

Thank Micheal for sharing. God bless you.

"Don't get killed in your pajamas." I'll remember this one. I'm naturally an early bird, but at times I can get lazy. Your book sounds great.

Michael in most mob movies or TV shows and some of the books I've read they always have food. When is the Michael Franzese cooking show or cook book being released?

Just ordered the book. I appreciate your advice Michael.

All 5 of these things go so well together, if you got a crew who goes by the same rules, you are delegating to people who will have a plan when they run into a problem and won't call you not knowing what to do, but will call you with the issue and their plan to take care of it, and you just gotta sign off or not. Brilliant. This video gives me the taste to get back in business. On a different note, it's funny how when you have a plan and it works, the money lending goes right along with it, whether you want it or not, you'll be asked. You know you are doing it right when the opportunities you pursue open more and more opportunities. I know a lot of people watch Michael's videos for the romance of the mob life, but what he says will generate success in any context. Thank you for the words of wisdom Mr. Franzese, and God bless!

I never miss your vids, Michael!! God bless, take care!! 🇨🇦🇺🇸

Forget about it... great advice on Business and life!!!

Michael franzese is a wise man ! He reminds of my father and my OG comrades that spit real knowledge and game ! Good video Michael

Thank you Michael Franzese. I'm grateful for your videos.

There is one massive exceptions to "no successful late risers" - programmers. Best coding is always done at night. It's the same as you talk about - nice and peaceful and nobody bothers you. But whereas for you emails take up a few hours a day at most, to them, undisturbed work on a problem without any social contact is their whole job.

You don't gain knowledge like you've acquired in a business administration class.

Thanks, this really helped me stay focused on my challenge. I’ll definitely be getting the book.

You give so much good advice Michael can't stop tuning in.
