Instead, you need to create mini goals to help excite you along the way. The way you can be more goal-orientated and build a habit of being more effective.

Celebrating your small wins will help you stay motivated through your journey.

Plus, celebrating is always super fun.

Maybe you break your goal down to 10 small-sized goals with tasks that get you on track to achieve them.

For each of the 10 goals you can add a small celebration.

Maybe a glass of champagne for one or a dessert with a sparkler on top for another.

Don’t forget to check out some of our motivational quotes about success in a later section.

This goes back to the positive environment point: You need to be around others who are just as ambitious as you. American entrepreneur John Rohn once said, “You’re the average of the five people you spend the most time with it.” And whether or not that’s true is debatable, the reality is being around the right kind of people can only help you grow.

If you’re surrounded by those who love your ambition, you’ll be more ambitious and achieve more.

If you’re surrounded by loved ones who tell you your goals are stupid and tell you to change them, you need to avoid them.

Be around those who help you feel comfortable being the ambitious, go-getter you are, so you can become the successful person you’re meant to be.

Their fanbase call themselves "Daddy Gang" and refers to the girls as "The Founding Fathers."

In their first episode they talk about things like cuckolding, threesomes, advising men not to unexpectedly send pictures of their genitals when in the beginning stages of speaking to a woman.

The idea for the show came when they were visiting a bar at the South by Southwest art and music show in Texas, with a group of friends talking about sex. Many people in the bar joined in, one remarked how they'd make a good show.

Prior to working for Barstool Sports, Alexandra was an anchor for Dirty Water media beginning in 2016.^[16]

In late April 2020, rumors began circulating that Franklyn and Cooper had a falling out. The pair were supposed to continue filming podcasts as per their contract, but haven't uploaded since early April 2020, violating their contract with Barstool Sports. ^[22]

The split was allegedly due to the girls contemplating other deals, potentially worth millions, and wanting to end their contract with Barstool Sports, who owns the tradeMark to their brand. An insider told the New York Post:

Barstool Sports founder David Portnoy addressed this in an episode of Call Her Daddy titled "Daddy Speaks". ^[24]

According to Portnoy, when he initially signed Cooper and Franklyn with Barstool Sports in 2018, there were disagreements about the intellectual property.

He stated the women wanted to maintain the intellectual property for Call Her Daddy, however, Barstool Sports owned the trademark. It was a three-year contract in which the two women would make around $70,000 a year plus bonuses, Portnoy said.

A few months after the podcast started on, Cooper asked Portnoy for a raise, citing the success of the podcast. She received a raise, and although Franklyn was given a raise as well, Cooper was making more money than her. Portnoy cited the reason being that Cooper does more of the work for Call Her Daddy, including editing.

They bumped heads over the intellectual property and started negotiations with Barstool, with the hosts seeking to take back the intellectual property of the show and gain other benefits including a million dollar guarantee for each. According to Portnoy, Barstool Sports wasn’t offered anything in return, so he called off negotiations.

He stated “That is when they started the trail, and the trail is exactly what everybody thought it was.

They were shopping Call Her Daddy around, looking to go somewhere else, break their contract with us."

He described Barstool's stance as: "If you guys take Call Her Daddy and go somewhere else, we’re going to sue the f**k out of you. Like you’re under a three-year contract.”

He tried to negotiate with the two hosts but they wouldn’t, and they allegedly didn’t talk to him for months.

He said the two stopped coming into the office, and they finally stopped doing the podcast.

He said, “I cut them a deal that was so outrageously good in their favor, that I thought we’d get something done.”

He said the 50/50 deal included $500,000 guarantee for each host, extra merchandise revenue and a contract shortened by six months. According to Portnoy, they had around 18 months left on their three-year contract with Barstool Sports. He said he would also give them the intellectual property for Call Her Daddy.

He also spoke of Franklyn and Peter Nelson's relationship on the podcast, saying that Nelson was one of the main reasons the situation escalated. Portnoy said, “I was starting to hear whispers, and she (Cooper) confirmed it, and this is a big part of the story, her new boyfriend… Peter Nelson, HBO executive, probably greenlit a hitpiece on me not too long ago, [came] into the mix not too long ago. He was the one who brought in all these lawyers.”

He continued, “He was openly shopping Call Her Daddy. He was acting almost as a manager, and he got a deal with Wondery. They were going to call the podcast 'The Fathers'.”

He finally spoke with Cooper alone, who told him that they were never going to get a deal done because Franklyn was refusing. Cooper said to Portnoy that she wanted sign the new contract with Barstool Sports.”

According to Portnoy, Cooper is currently renegotiating contract, which will give her 75% of the intellectual property as well as other benefits.

He said, “Once we got ready to do a deal with [Cooper], I believe the Wondery deal clearly fell through because there was no longer Call Her Daddy, I think [Franklyn] wanted to come back maybe. But it was too late. The fifty-fifty deal, [Cooper] didn't want to do it anymore.”

“We offered them mid-to-high six-figure salaries and a way for them to get the intellectual property,” Portnoy said. “We offered them substantial raises just to get them to honor their existing contract.”

Franklyn posted a series of videos to her Instagram stories on May 19, 2020, addressing the matter. She accused Cooper of 'stabbing her in the back' while they were renegotiating their contract with Barstool Sports. Franklyn also claimed they looked for outside deals to benefit their fans. “I found out that Alex had gone behind my back and done something. And I found out it wasn’t the first time. And that’s why we’re here. I trusted Alex. I feel betrayed," Franklyn said in the video.

Franklyn said the pair regrets how they went about their business dealings, but she claims they were eager to return to Barstool. That’s why they took a meeting with Portnoy, who then extended the sweetheart deal. “This is where the story gets extremely f–ked up,” she claimed, alleging that Cooper went behind her back but not offering any details.

Franklyn remained silent on accusations that Nelson was behind the drama and didn’t mention his name. ^[34][35]

Cooper posted a video to YouTube on May 22, 2020, titled "The Truth about Call Her Daddy" to announce that she signed a solo deal with Barstool Sports to resume filming Call Her Daddy and to tell her side of the split. Cooper said Franklyn allowed her boyfriend and his “posse” of agents and lawyers to interfere in their business and come between them. She said Peter Nelson kept saying that they made “way below” the industry standard. Cooper also alleges that Nelson then took the lead, drafting a list of demands the women sought from Barstool, which included a guarantee of $1 million each, a bigger piece of their merchandise revenue and giving them the intellectual property rights. [35]

Cooper believes Franklyn wanted to sabotage everything and “force [her] into starting a new show.” She suddenly had more representatives, signed with William Morris Endeavor, and had an attorney who kept moving the goal posts farther away from Portnoy’s original offer.

“Alex, I hate this deal.

What it comes down to is: You don’t want to leave, and I don’t want to stay,” Cooper recalled Franklyn saying. “ Franklyn said, ‘The IP is the most important thing, but it’s not as important to me as it is to you, Alex. I get you think the IP is the end-all-be-all — but I feel differently about that’. . . We agreed that we valued the brand in a very different way.” Franklyn said in a two hour phone call on May 6th, 2020.

Cooper admitted to landing a raise independently of Franklyn in the first year because she simply did more work, including editing the podcast and handling the marketing and social media: “I chose not to share this raise with Sofia, and I chose to do that because Sofia made me feel uncomfortable that I did more work.”

She also announced that moving forward, she will be doing the podcast on her own as part of her new contract with Barstool Sports.On Instagram, Portnoy confirmed Cooper’s news, saying: “It’s all now back to Alex Cooper and Peter Nelson go f - - k yourself, you f - - k.” ^[36][37][38]
