31 min
•Nov 17, 20255 months agoSummary
Steve Eckert, a fitness instructor and father of Operation Black Sight, redefines wealth as strong family relationships, physical discipline, and presence rather than financial success. He discusses how consistent daily training, intentional family time, and modeling leadership creates generational impact and breaks cycles of neglect.
Insights
- Wealth redefinition: True wealth is measured by family relationships, physical health, and presence—not net worth or material possessions like private jets
- Parental modeling as primary influence: Children adopt values through observation of parental discipline and consistency, not through lectures or financial provision alone
- Family-integrated business model: Involving spouse and children in business operations creates shared ownership, resilience, and prepares youth for adult adversity
- Manufactured adversity as privilege: Exposing affluent children to hardship through charity work and challenging physical feats prevents entitlement and builds appreciation
- Structured family systems drive outcomes: Weekly date nights, one-on-one meetings with each child, and Sunday family meetings create measurable relational and behavioral improvements
Trends
Rejection of hustle culture in favor of intentional presence: High-performing entrepreneurs prioritizing family time over business expansionRise of family-integrated entrepreneurship: Spouses and children as active business stakeholders rather than dependentsPhysical competency as social responsibility: Self-defense, firearms training, and fitness becoming viewed as civic duty for community safetyGender role recalibration: Women seeking tactical training due to male disengagement; women forced into masculine roles in single-parent householdsDivorce impact on parenting standards: 89% of millionaires from non-divorced families driving renewed focus on marital stability as wealth metricExperiential events over digital content: Sacred, in-person training events (Operation Black Sight) valued more than viral social media contentAttention as currency: Time and presence reframed as more valuable than financial resources in family wealth buildingIntegrity-based leadership: Consistency between private and public behavior becoming defining trait of respected fathers and leadersHomeschooling integration with business education: Children learning P&L management, sales, and refund psychology through family operationsAdversity inoculation through structured challenges: 24-hour fundraiser workouts and manufactured hardship as intentional parenting strategy

Full Transcript
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to a special edition of the Money Moneys Podcast where we cover three core topics. Had to make money, had to invest money, had to give it away to charity. But today, we're going to dive into the topics about your body, mind and soul. Why do you invest into yourself? This guest today, Steve Eckert, has been with us here at Operation Black Sight for the last half a decade since we first started. You can check it out at OperationBlackSight.com. Steve was there day one. He's actually the only instructor that's been at every single event, every single day from four, five in the morning, leading the optional workouts that he's going to explain what that means when I say optional. So at the very end of the night, where we're here, it's 10 o'clock at night, after we just have gone through the first couple of days of training. And we're here. So he's been with us morning and noon at night because he passion and believes in helping people change their minds, their bodies and their actions. By doing that, I believe in what's called the butterfly effect. If we make better humans, we make them more skilled, more competent, more trained, they will help their families, their communities, their staff, their family, their friends, etc. And the more people that are trained, I believe, that less crime will happen because people will hopefully be more scared to commit crimes as we've seen in certain countries or states where they know if they're going to find out. And we've seen it in Dallas, Texas, where there's not that much crime when people know there's open carry. And anyways, we're going to get into all these topics. So this podcast will be much different. I want to dive into this because I want to cover this topic so important. I'm actually doing this like a rush episode. This is coming out literally this Monday. We're filming this right now, this weekend. And for me, I've just been obsessed with this because I've been seeing so many situations happen across our society. We see it on the news. We see situations on subways. We see tragic situations where people are getting hurt or worse or getting killed that could be prevented if people were competent and not just playing out their cell phones and recording these terrible, terrible situations that are occurring in our society. And so without further ado, Steve Eckert, if you can give us the quick two minute bio, so you can get straight to the money. One thing this has to do, this is about money, about taking care of yourself and that's really what I do is what I consider myself as just a husband and a father. If I do those things right, all the things fall into place. That's the ultimate currency right there. Take care of myself, take care of my family. That is wealth. I'm probably the least rich person that's been on this podcast, but I guarantee I'm the wealthiest that's ever been on this podcast for those reasons because that's what I consider my profession is a husband and a father first. And I know if I do that, get my house in order, all the other pieces are going to fall into place in business and money in the community, in being a leader, in impacting the community to the better ways that you're saying so that things start shifting for the positive in the country. So your wife and kids and yourself have been working out how many days in a row? We've we've loved my son key track. It's now over four or five years, like not a single day off talking about four or five years years. Yeah, it might even be longer than that by this point. We've lost track. It's, we don't take a day off. We just, it's a daily win. It's a guaranteed win every day. And if that's the thing that we're addicted to, there's far worse things we can be addicted to. You're like, oh, you're overtraining and yet they're sitting on the couch and their kids are freaking fat and eating them. Exactly. So if that's the worst thing I'm doing all day is working out, like I'll take that any day of the week, but it's also showing my kids, I've had injuries and torn muscles through all this. It's been through Corona and ups and downs. We do it every day no matter what. It's not even a decision to make. It's a, but it's a guaranteed win, but it's also showing them how to be disciplined, how to be consistent. They love it. We do it together as a family. There's no better way to connect to me. That is wealthy. That's why that's why the, what the wealth I'm talking about. We trained together seven days a week. We dinner together seven days a week. We come to events like this all the time all across the country. Like that's to me, that's the new wealth. That's the new flex as a damn near 50 year old man to still have abs and being shaped and lead my family and hang out with my family, not neglect my family to go and be successful. So a lot of four-toned old boys like your son are scrolling through TikTok, they're avoiding school, they're avoiding situations, and they're just kind of figuring out life and their own fashion, their own way. How do you inspire him to want to be here at these events and want to be working on and want to be around his dad so often? He sees us doing it. He says, well, having fun, we're doing all kinds of cool shit. We're fighting, punching people in the face, shooting guns, getting tied up, escaping like this is cool shit. This is like a playground for a young man, but when they want to go and do it in real life, also he sees parents that are doing it. Two parents that are doing it. You know, I saw a study that 89% of millionaires come from families where their parents didn't get divorced. It's wild when you think about that. So they see that and they're just following the success. Success leads clues. Be like his father because I'm there hanging out. We're having fun. We're doing everything together. When I was a kid, I looked at my father and I've got all my discipline and success and everything I've ever learned from my father because I looked at him and said I want to be nothing like that man. So I decided to break the cycle and do things complete opposite. The blueprint he showed me, do everything in the opposite. My son sees that. My family sees that. He wants it be like me. It'd be the type of man that my daughter would one day want to marry. If I allow her to get married because who knows, there's not much of a selection out there, but that's like a big fear of mine. She's used to being around her brother who's a capable young man and all the people I bring around here. She's all these men in black sight. There's not that much out there. There's going to be much out there. That's what she's going to be expecting. She's going to have pretty high standards when it comes to it. So we need to shift the way things go in this country so that there are more young men coming out there. So she has someone worthy of even marrying when she gets older. So where did this come from for you? What point you decide I'm going to become this discipline B? Like when did that happen? Ultimately my life's little stages. I mean, I could say it's from a horrible childhood. It's seeing my father and I literally never had a single conversation with my father. I lived with him in the house until I was 19 years old. I left for the Marine Corps. Never had a single conversation. He never told me about girls or had a change of car tire. Nothing. Like literally not a conversation. Never threw a football to me and not a single time. So I knew something wasn't, that's not the way it's supposed to be. It didn't feel right as a young boy. Like where is my positive male role model? So I could say it's that. That's when I was in jail and said I needed to turn things around. I could say it when I went to the Marine Corps and I saw, started seeing what positive male leadership and discipline was like. I could say it was when I became an entrepreneur. That's probably when it came close when an entrepreneur you start like, oh shit, this is what resilience is. This is how a man deals with pressure. But probably not until my first son was born. And now that you're like, I always think good, more good men have to have kids. I think that's our purpose is to have children. So I was running a business in New York. I was working seven days a week doing everything clean the toilets, training all the clients, doing all the sales, the marketing, the follow up. And I came home on a Sunday, like 10 p.m. and I didn't see my son. He was only a few months old and he happened to be awake. And my wife was like, oh, he's awake. You never get to see him. He's awake because you're working all the time. And she handed to me, she took a picture and she put the picture on the fridge and she saw that as like this cool thing. But for me, that was like that snap, that aha moment saying, you know what? Even though I'm trying to build this empire, all my kid knows is there's neglect. A father that's not home. Just like my father wasn't there. He's just going to see that. He doesn't give a shit if I'm going to make millions of dollars if I'm not there to lead him and spend time with him. So that moment when she took that picture, I was like, oh shit, I got to start shifting things and do things a little different. Not just, yeah, I want to be obsessed and make a shit ton of money, but I'm not going to do it at the expense of neglect in my son and my family. And I was like to wear the trajectory change on the discipline side. So you've had tens and tens of millions of views. If not hundreds of millions of views on social over the years because some of your videos go very, very viral creating this content about your real life and a lot of situations and even when your kids are going to training here at Operation Blackside, you have a lot of options. You could be working on a lot of different things in the personal training space. Why this? Why Operation Blackside? Because of the things we just talked about. It's so meaningful. Letting my kids experience this and see their parents go through this and be around just amazing people all the time. Like, we come into the ranch. Someone said it yesterday and one of the speakers. It's like a sacred event. It's like a sacred place. It's a different feel, a different vibe, a different aura. Like, you show up here. Is that like that gravitas feeling when you come to Operation Blackside and my kids can feel that? They know this is how man operates. This is how successful people operate. These are the things that think about to become not just a provider but a protector but a disciplined, purpose driven human being that just makes everyone around them better. That's what a leader is. That's what a father is. Working on yourself every day to get better but making all the people around you better and they see that and I know that they're going to, they're going to far surpass anything I did when they're older. A hundred times more they're going to accomplish than I ever did. That right there doing events like this, it's just amazing. You can't beat it. So today I noticed that there's exactly 50% members here for Operation Blackside that are women and men. Why do you think it's important for women to go through training like this to learn how to shoot, how to fight, how to escape? I think it's a few parts of that and on the surface we think it is because they see crazy things happen. The girl in the subway that you're training her on. That's just so they see things like that. I need to be more, learn how to be more situationally aware and when I'm going through a parking lot by myself like one of the women said she works in Vegas and walks through a parking lot. It's just dark and rows of cars. How does she navigate that? It's so much stress and anxiety and they see these things happen on the news. I think that's the surface level that kind of real tangible thing that goes deeper than that. I think it's because men in general have gotten weaker and softer and the women have to become the men of either of the family or maybe they're a single parent because the divorces are so high like I said earlier and they have to take the role of a man. They might not even want to. They should learn these skills too but they should be learning alongside their man as a unit. You rarely see them. They come with their husbands one did and he stayed in the hotel. I'm just some that's not going to pull me punches and tell it like it is. She showed up with her husband. He should be going through this with her. If she stayed in the hotel and the warm covers while she was out here in the rain crawling in the mud. That right there is the answer right there. They're forced to step up into this role and even in a marriage. You want something to marry but then of course with divorce rates and single mothers they have to. Who's going to do it? They need to. They're forced to be in that masculine role unfortunately and they can't really be there true womanly feminine self all the time so they're forced to do it. But on top of that they should do it but I think with as a family unit like we do we try to show them this is possible for a family. It's possible to do shit like this together. It's possible to not get divorced. It's possibly happy and have fun and live a life you don't need to vacation from together as a unit with your kids, with your spouse, with your family all together. Now you have it. Now we have a fucking army. We're four of us thinking like this in the family not just one person. It's a super power coming to something like Operation Blacksite. So there's people out there that are listening over the years that are wealthy and they built up wealth, they've invested, they've built their businesses, maybe they've sold a business and they've got this career, they've got this capital but when they go home their kids don't respect them or their wife doesn't respect them. What can they do difference to try to earn that respect? Yeah, the respect is huge and it needs to be re-earned every day and the Marine Corps we see if they're earned the right to be a Marine every day. You have to earn the right to be a husband every day. You have to earn the right to be a father every day just because you have kids doesn't make you a father just because you don't have kids doesn't mean you can't help father and lead other kids. I think Grant Cardone said at one time and of course he's massively successful. Everyone wants to be rich like him and have the private jets but he said at one time that he only needs one day a week with his daughter and then I heard someone recently say it like some one of the big gurus online and a lot of followers very successful said he needs only 20 minutes with his kids and after that they're told to kick rocks and that's all he needs a day. If I only spent 20 minutes with my kids a day it makes me sick to my stomach to think I've only spent 20 minutes and if they wanted to only spend 20 minutes a day with me that tells me I'm doing something wrong. I'm not leading them and not connecting with them the way they should. Are you kidding? They want to hang out all day. I judge my success yet not on the bank account only. That helps of course but that's I judge my steps on the footsteps of my kids when I come home and in the door or even when in my office my daughter knows and they do not disturb her on the sign and on the room in my office she hears when my door opens up and I hear those footsteps running like a machine gun. That's how I judge my success. How fast are my kids footsteps running towards me when I come home from an event if they're not with me. I come out of my office. I come back from work. It's really that intentional attention that they're giving. Attention is the new currency. Our time and attention is more powerful than any money. I know so many successful rich if you want to rich people that are very poor when it comes to the wealth of their family. They're out of shape. They're unhealthy. They look at them and be like yeah the money is cool but I want to be nothing like that fucking person because they're out of shape. They're fat. They're not spending any time with me. I don't like I don't necessarily want to be like them. The money doesn't mean shit. I have a saying. FYPJ. Fuck your private jet. Like that's the way I if I if in order for me to get a private jet do I believe I can work hard enough with my work ethic and discipline to get a private jet. Abs of freaking loop the I can. But if it means having to only spend 20 minutes a day with my kids. Fuck you. You can keep your private jet. I don't want it. I don't need it. I don't want my kids than anyone I know and still are able to come to events like this run my business from home. I personally homeschool my kids. So it's the attention they're giving their kids with intention. The presence presence is a currency with your kids. I'm investing in my kids. This is the money Mondays. I'm investing in my kids by coming to things like Operation Black site and letting them see it and feel it and experience it. Like that's an investment right there. The people don't invest in their kids enough. They invest in the yeah the the investments that you talk we need to invest in the money and make a shit town of money also. They invest in their employees and their team and their sales work team and all this other stuff and marketing but they're not investing in their kids. They need to take that flip that script and bring orders to the chaos in the house to get their house in order and I guarantee everything else just as elevated and becomes better for that. Like their mind needs to be totally reframed about like my number one business. So I said when I said what do I do is I'm a husband and a father that is it. That's my number one job. There's no more meaningful and now you know it too. I love it that you're experiencing it. There's no more meaningful, impactful career you could have as a man. Like that is our purpose on this planet as a man is to have kids and leave them well and leave this spinning rock better than we found it. So I think they're just not giving them attention. Their priorities are just out of whack. They think providing is enough when it's really the attention and intention they need with the time they're spending with them. Yesterday I flew 16 hours from Dubai and I had Ariana on my chest and her sleeping and I just put my phone on her butt and I was typing typing typing typing typing typing for must have been four five six seven hours of the 16 hour flight. She just thought that my chest now is my favorite moment of the whole. Just gonna say it doesn't get any better than that. Nothing. Doesn't get any better than that. Like I don't need to be in a baby to a wedding in Dubai but I need to bring a baby. I need to bring a baby. I don't need to but I need to. Yeah. That is amazing. I want her around all the time. I'm obsessed with it. Okay. So women's out there and she's married to a successful man. But he's lazy. It doesn't work out. It definitely doesn't know how to fight. He's never shot a gun in his life. What can she do to get her man to go out there whether it's go to something like Operation Black Sight or at least go to the gym or go to martial arts studio or gun range in their local town? Yeah. Crazy that we have to say it from that. Usually it's like the man has to try to bring the woman along for riding the roles or reversing which is crazy but she needs to be straight forward direct and honest with him about the losing respect that she's having. Like imagine a woman tells a man that she's losing respect for him. Like if that's not enough to make you get your shit together and stop being fat and go and take care of her. Go read a freaking book come to do something like Operation Black Sight. Like she needs to be straight forward with him and let him know. What she expects as a man what she should rightfully so expect from a man that's the leader of the home and of the house. It's just a communication and they don't do it because there it's causes too much friction and too afraid to rock the boat but why would you like if you are not happy with something do something about it communicate it bring something up and if he doesn't do something about it then that kind of gives you your answer right there. So tomorrow morning it's 4.15 am the alarm clock goes off it's raining outside and you're under the warm blankets. What motivates you to not push that snooze button to take those blankets off and to go outside and work out in the rain. Those footsteps that I said I know and it's right there alongside my kids they're right there and guess what if I didn't get up you know who's going to say what are you doing in my kids first one my son will be there if I ever tried to it would never let it happen and be sure mainly for that reason I know those little eyeballs are on me George Patton said you're always on parade when he's talking about like in the military how you conduct yourself there's always eyeballs watching you shit when you're a father you're on parade 24 seven whether your kids are with you or not even if they're not with me I'm going to get up and do the same thing I'm going to I'm going to train my ass off even more because I know sometimes alright no one's going to know I can get away with it that's what leadership really is that's what integrity really is who are you when you're by yourself how do you deal with shit when you're by yourself when it's easy when the eyeballs are on you and your kids are making you go and do it that's easy what about when you're by yourself it's that same mentality thinking alright I'm not a big woo woo tree hugging freaking person but I believe if I'm not doing the things I'm telling my kids to do when just because I can get away with it and no one's going to know about it and they won't know if I don't train my ass off today I'm a believer that the universe will send that little butterfly effect out there and completely change the trajectory of our relationship and the trajectory of life offers some stupid little thing like that like I have to I must because those freaking kids are my legacy and if I don't be if I'm not a man of my word I deserve all the worst that's going to come to me alright so on the podcast we don't want to talk about you know how to make money how to invest money how to give away the charity on the charity side why do things important for the family household to see you the man do some type of philanthropy doesn't have to be financially but go out there and whether it's helping the homeless helping out a children shelter and abuse shelter a senior citizen home etc what is it about doing some type of philanthropy that is important for the household yeah they it's it's manufactured adversity pretty much they I do everything I can like I said to break the cycle to give them an awesome life but if all they have is an awesome life and they don't know about adversity they don't know about like homelessness and things like that we teach them about all that they're not going to appreciate it they're not going to they're going to be entitled little brats like the majority of people out there so I push them and press them and expose them to things like this like we're actually doing a 24 hour workout a week from the week from today next Saturday 24 hours we're lifting weights for 24 hours straight no breaks 24 yeah it's the third time we're doing it explain this you do a set chest press just like you would at the gym you're not going to put it down you go do your set of squats with the weights you put it down and we keep track of our weight we do it for 24 hours no sleep you done three times this is the third time and we're doing it for a fundraiser a young guy that we know just died in his family now he needs we're doing a fundraiser to raise money for the family and this is how we do it and show them like we you must suffer and appreciate they and not just be entitled for and we've done them before for big brothers big sisters for American Heart Association for autism 24 hour workouts all the time different variations of them we have one coming up a week week from today it's to show them like you have to you can't you have to realize what adversity is after teaching my very so called manufactured adversity otherwise they'll grow up and when life kicks them in the freaking teeth they're not going to know how to deal with it they're going to be you suggest oh daddy just would take care of daddy will hands me oh hell no you're gonna you're gonna earn that shit all right we are in the wealthiest society in history gold is up big coin is up stock markets real estate stuff trillions and trillions and trillions of dollars have been pumped into our society because math and time compounds a father and wife have raised their two kids and they're wealthy and now they're 18 years old how can they instill some toughness into that child before they turn 18 so they don't go out and face reality out there in society and they were just soft the whole time because they lived in a mansion and had you know fancy caviar all the time yeah like I said they're gonna earn everything my kids when they want something yeah birthdays in that they'll get little things here but they want something in between they're gonna earn it they're gonna work for it they help they help me where they're homeschooled so they do their regular things to learn that we consider their homeschooling but they help us with businesses they run payments they run yeah P&L reports they do all kinds of shit like that they create sales pages and social media content and reply to messages and things like that they're constantly in the business so they have to see what it's like how what is the struggle like they see when you get refunds and what it fucking stings and they're like oh shit they need to know where that feels like and they feel it because now they know they're not gonna get rewarded if you all right well why they get a refund what do we do to make that refund come in or whatever what do we need to do to make more money well we didn't create good enough content we didn't send out good enough emails we didn't have good enough follow up and they see what I'm doing and and so they're they're coming right along for the ride again we're manufacturing diversity they're working in the business I think it's a super power and my wife we all work together the whole family technically works in the business we all come here together if you couldn't have a business entrepreneurship with your spouse and then also get your kids involved like I think that is a superpower I really didn't have nothing to ever worry about we have a bad month a bad year a bad decade but knowing that your family has your back and they're all in it together they feel it it's something it's something that they have some pride in and they take ownership in and when they become adults they're early it's just another day at the office dealing with the adversity I got talked about today that the different seasons of life and holding the line through the success and the failures they're seeing it they've seen me do go through tons of failures regularly like and they see how oh this is how a man deals with setbacks and adversity he doesn't come under pressure he has to start acting like an ass he doesn't they don't get divorced they come together and figure it the fuck out so that they can now go back into that harvest season and go back to dominating and they know it's going to come around again and again there's going to be the ups and downs we cut the peaks and valleys they're right alongside with us when they become adults again they're going to achieve a thousand times more than I ever could so you also trained with Squire program with Badras Kulean explain Squire program and the whole concept behind it yeah it's a father's son experience we just administer it it's just to help get the help the fathers to connect more with their sons so that we can my really really the real reason why I am so invested in Squire program it is that my daughter hopefully one day will have someone worthy to marry because again like we said before there's not going to be much of a selection and I didn't have that connection with my father as a kid at all zero so to go in there and instill some of this stuff in and kind of wake some of these fathers up sometimes they think it's they think they're bringing their sons there for their son yeah he's whatever trouble we don't really connect much and he's that ever not disciplined and they come in fat out of shape you see the way they interact with them the little side hug their kind of the body language that's not there and it's really just as much for the fathers as is the sons we want I want to I want to more fathers who experience the father and and child connection especially the father's son bond and connection that me and my son have because there's no again no greater profession in the world as a man and a lot of men miss out on their absent in the home even when they're home they're not there they're stressed about work they're stressed about money and it's running running and ruining their their their life and their and their marriage and their family so you have one the best mindset I've ever seen in my life minor view and interact with so many thousands of people over
