57. Your Focus is Everything

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:06,160 So the big question is this, how do young men like us, who didn't listen to society, 2 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:12,960 who are on our own, how do we grow and improve ourselves so that we can live a better tomorrow? 3 00:00:14,960 --> 00:00:18,960 That is the question and this show will give you the answers. 4 00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:25,360 My name is James Radzinski and welcome to the Ascend Momentum Show. 5 00:00:25,360 --> 00:00:39,200 Welcome back everyone. All right, we got a few things. First, a couple weeks ago, 6 00:00:39,920 --> 00:00:49,600 I discovered this thing called the gateway process and I experienced, I practiced my first 7 00:00:49,600 --> 00:00:57,680 meditation using the gateway process last night and my second one this morning. So I bought the 8 00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:09,120 Wave 1 packet which is three discs and six recordings and so far I did the first two 9 00:01:09,120 --> 00:01:14,240 recordings. So I've only completed the first two discs or the first disc actually. 10 00:01:14,240 --> 00:01:21,680 And the first recording on that disc I did and I was able to do it all. 11 00:01:23,040 --> 00:01:30,240 And it was about getting into focus three which is just like unified brain and mind. 12 00:01:31,280 --> 00:01:39,440 And I feel as though I was able to get into that. And then the second recording I did this morning 13 00:01:39,440 --> 00:01:48,000 but unfortunately I was not able to get into focus 10 but it is okay because that was only my first 14 00:01:49,360 --> 00:01:57,360 it was my first attempt at it basically. And I've heard that it takes, you probably won't get a first 15 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:04,880 try and I'm definitely looking forward to it because I'm learning a lot about it and there's 16 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:12,400 this one of the exercises that we do before we even start trying to get into focus 10 is called 17 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:20,160 your energy conversion box. I'm pretty sure it's called and it's basically a box that is like in 18 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:29,600 your brain. So you imagine a box for me like it can be any form it could be like a box it could be 19 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:39,120 a chest it could be anything. And for me what I'm most comfortable with since I used to play a lot 20 00:02:39,120 --> 00:02:50,320 of Minecraft I am using a chest as my box. And so basically what you do is you visualize the box 21 00:02:50,320 --> 00:03:01,760 and then you like place all of your worries anxieties fears all of your material like material 22 00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:08,640 things inside of the box. And also what you can do is you can place your expectations in the box 23 00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:15,360 and what I do is I place my impatience in the box. And what that allows me to do is it basically 24 00:03:15,360 --> 00:03:24,800 is a mindset shift every single time I catch myself like becoming impatient I remind myself 25 00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:31,360 that I put impatience in the box. And it's like it's so much better I found than not putting it 26 00:03:31,360 --> 00:03:37,360 in the box because I'm able to catch myself like every single time right away when I'm impatient. 27 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:45,440 It's this weird like Q that happens in my mind. So that's a very valuable exercise that I have 28 00:03:46,960 --> 00:03:52,080 discovered in the gateway process. And honestly I might start doing it throughout the day. 29 00:03:53,520 --> 00:04:00,720 And then another thing is I'm pretty sure it's called resonant tuning where it's basically 30 00:04:00,720 --> 00:04:09,200 you breathe in with your eyes open and you imagine all of the energy flowing up your body 31 00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:17,680 and then into your brain and you hold your breath and like swish it around your brain 32 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:26,320 and then you close your eyes open your mouth and do like the I forgot what it was called but 33 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:31,680 you know how in meditation some like this classical meditation is like oh 34 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:42,080 oh like that thing. I know like I've heard that word before I forgot what it was called though 35 00:04:42,080 --> 00:04:51,040 I'm just blanking on the name of what it's called but it's that and you basically once you exhale 36 00:04:51,040 --> 00:05:01,440 you like go oh like and on the recording they actually play like that those noises and so you 37 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:11,600 can like align you can like synchronize your tone and become into the like unify the tones. 38 00:05:11,600 --> 00:05:17,280 I don't even know there's like this you know how when two people are singing the same tone 39 00:05:17,280 --> 00:05:24,640 they're oh in harmony you can harmonize with it. So that's pretty much that and 40 00:05:27,440 --> 00:05:36,240 that exercise like even just practicing that I just discovered this or last night that you're 41 00:05:36,240 --> 00:05:43,600 actually supposed to use that. I'm pretty sure it's like the where you go oh you're supposed to 42 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:51,120 actually use that during that exercise and also you breathe in and then breathe out with that like 43 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:59,280 oh I'm sorry I don't remember what it's called. I wish I could like not say oh every time but 44 00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:07,280 you basically breathe in and then out and then you breathe normal and then like a couple 45 00:06:07,280 --> 00:06:13,840 seconds later maybe like 10 seconds later you're supposed to do it again and so that's like before 46 00:06:13,840 --> 00:06:20,640 I was breathing in out in out like I was constantly flowing my energy in and out which may or may 47 00:06:20,640 --> 00:06:29,360 not be good I don't know but I found that over the past like week or so when I first discovered this 48 00:06:29,360 --> 00:06:37,040 like breathing or not breathing but first discovered this like deep meditation I've been 49 00:06:37,040 --> 00:06:44,480 practicing that resonant tuning where you like flow the energy and feel all the energy go throughout 50 00:06:44,480 --> 00:06:50,720 your body and so I've gotten a decent amount of practice with that and last night was the first 51 00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:56,880 time I actually did it with the hemi sync which is basically just the noise that they play to 52 00:06:56,880 --> 00:07:06,400 unify your your left side and the right side of the mind and I am able to actually like feel my 53 00:07:06,400 --> 00:07:13,840 energy throughout the day now like I have to like look for it like I don't just feel it naturally I 54 00:07:13,840 --> 00:07:22,720 still have to like like focus on my hands so I'm able to like right now I can feel my hands 55 00:07:22,720 --> 00:07:30,560 and I can feel the energy flowing through my hands and I actually have started doing that like 56 00:07:30,560 --> 00:07:38,480 throughout the day where whenever I'm like walking the halls or doing something I always just focus 57 00:07:38,480 --> 00:07:45,840 my attention on my energy in my hands and I kind of just like feel the energy in my hands flowing 58 00:07:45,840 --> 00:07:53,600 through it and that's like a cool thing to do to just keep you mindful keep you grounded plus 59 00:07:53,600 --> 00:07:59,600 you can remind you like you can remember the energy and give your energy your attention to 60 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:08,000 increase your energy as well but there's also another thing that I learned so I'm not sure if I 61 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:17,760 actually learned this I'm okay I'm pretty sure I originally discovered this in Transurfing the 62 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:27,520 book Reality Transurfing and it's basically for context there is a exercise that you can do 63 00:08:28,480 --> 00:08:34,640 that I learned in Transurfing where you basically activate your fountains that's what it's called 64 00:08:34,640 --> 00:08:45,040 like that's what I like to call it and all you do is imagine like two lines like two tunnels 65 00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:56,880 of energy flowing up and down your spine and then up into the sky and down into the floor 66 00:08:56,880 --> 00:09:04,160 and then you imagine them making a fountain shape so you know like a fountain that you would see 67 00:09:04,160 --> 00:09:10,560 where the water shoots up into the sky and it disperses in all directions that is basically 68 00:09:10,560 --> 00:09:17,120 energy so you imagine your energy flowing up your body all the way up into the sky and then 69 00:09:17,120 --> 00:09:23,440 it like disperses into a fountain and then you imagine your the other stream go down your body 70 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:28,960 down into the ground and then disperses in an opposite fountain and then they both like both 71 00:09:28,960 --> 00:09:35,520 the fountains connect in the center like center area of your body and so you're basically surrounded 72 00:09:35,520 --> 00:09:49,040 by a sphere of energy and that uh that exercise I do fairly often and there's also this other thing 73 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:55,440 that I'm pretty sure Vadim Zan talked about it later on in his book where it's basically if you want 74 00:09:55,440 --> 00:10:03,920 to like this I don't know if he was doing it for an experiment or did it just to test it out but 75 00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:09,520 it's basically you activate your fountain and then you imagine that sphere of energy and 76 00:10:09,520 --> 00:10:19,360 energy and larging so much to where it like engulfs all of your surroundings and like the people 77 00:10:19,360 --> 00:10:25,040 around you so if you're near people like let's say you're talking in a group and you're just like 78 00:10:25,040 --> 00:10:30,880 all in a circle fairly close together and then you turn on you activate your fountains and then 79 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:40,640 imagine your your sphere of energy expanding to engulf the entire group inside of it and then 80 00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:49,120 I'm pretty sure he that was it but maybe he said to pop it but I definitely I don't know where I 81 00:10:49,120 --> 00:10:56,240 learned it it was either from Vadim Zan on reality Transurfing or from the Hemi-Sync on the gateway 82 00:10:56,240 --> 00:11:04,320 process but there's this exercise that I did today in the at school where I would basically 83 00:11:05,440 --> 00:11:13,040 we're all sitting in the auditorium and so I would just imagine my fountains I'd activate my 84 00:11:13,040 --> 00:11:19,760 fountains and then imagine my sphere of energy and larging so much and then I would pop it and 85 00:11:19,760 --> 00:11:26,080 then all of that energy would just flow on everyone else and I did that a few times and then 86 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:32,160 the last time I did it I imagined it getting so big that it like took up the entire auditorium 87 00:11:33,120 --> 00:11:40,640 and now I'm at the moment I didn't really know if it did anything because what Vadim Zan said is 88 00:11:41,200 --> 00:11:46,080 people kind of subconsciously treat you better and they'll like sense your power 89 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:55,360 and so I didn't really notice anything and then I left because it was a half day today for everyone 90 00:11:55,360 --> 00:12:00,560 because we had like an in-school field trip where all of the seniors were in the auditorium 91 00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:08,080 and so we everyone was leaving and I was walking out to my bike and I was at my bike 92 00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:18,000 and on my way out like this a bunch of people were saying hi to me like a lot of the people 93 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:23,920 usually say hi to me but this time just felt different and I had forgotten about the fact 94 00:12:23,920 --> 00:12:31,760 that I had my like I was just enveloping engulfing everyone in energy so I'd forgotten about that 95 00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:39,360 I was just like oh people are just extra friendly today and then once I got to my bike like this one 96 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:46,320 guy which who I'm I usually say hi to that was no surprise that he said hi to me but he was walking 97 00:12:46,320 --> 00:12:53,280 next to someone he was walking with someone who I didn't really know and we never really said hi 98 00:12:53,280 --> 00:13:01,840 to each other but I knew his name and he knew my name and a lot of times I would see the two 99 00:13:01,840 --> 00:13:07,920 walking together and I'd only say hi to the one that actually said hi to me today and then the other 100 00:13:07,920 --> 00:13:13,760 would never say hi to me and I'd never say hi to him but today was different both of them said hi 101 00:13:13,760 --> 00:13:22,400 like first the first person said hi and then the second person said hi and and then I said hi back 102 00:13:22,400 --> 00:13:32,160 and like I was like oh wow and then this one girl like walking behind them a little ways behind them 103 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:38,400 said hi to me and smiled and I was like wow like people are way more friendly than usual 104 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:44,320 and then when I got on my bike and started leaving like two more people were saying hi 105 00:13:44,320 --> 00:13:53,040 and when I was like so I was like wow that's awesome and I actually got on my bike and I had a flat 106 00:13:53,040 --> 00:14:00,880 tire like my bike popped or the tire popped so I had to walk it all the way home which was like a 107 00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:07,200 two mile walk which I was like I'm following the principle of coordinating intentions so I like 108 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:15,360 didn't get mad at it I was actually like oh nice now I get to walk like I I had a genuine grateful 109 00:14:15,360 --> 00:14:21,520 attitude of the fact that my bike tire popped because that's the coordinating intention principle 110 00:14:21,520 --> 00:14:27,360 basically every time you come across an event when any time an event happens you're at a crossroads 111 00:14:27,360 --> 00:14:32,880 you can either take a negative path or a positive path and the way you choose is your relationship 112 00:14:32,880 --> 00:14:39,280 to that event so when my bike tire popped I could either take a negative path or a positive path 113 00:14:39,280 --> 00:14:47,520 and the way I chose was by interpreting it as a positive of the fact that I got to walk home 114 00:14:48,160 --> 00:14:56,320 and so I was walking home and literally every single person that I walked by like said hi to me and 115 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:04,880 like was very excited like happy to see me so this stuff actually works like usually people 116 00:15:04,880 --> 00:15:14,000 say hi to me but not at this rate like a lot of times people just walk past and so that was awesome 117 00:15:16,000 --> 00:15:21,120 and that is definitely something that I'm gonna continue doing the energy exercises because 118 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:26,880 on a subconscious level they're basically feeding off of the energy that you're overflowing and 119 00:15:26,880 --> 00:15:37,280 they're like thanking you for it because they like no one gives out free energy unless you're like 120 00:15:37,280 --> 00:15:43,680 overflowing with it and so that's basically what and it's better like I'm getting more benefit off 121 00:15:43,680 --> 00:15:53,280 of them consuming that extra energy from me than keeping it myself because that's basically what 122 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:58,160 Vadim's on said and I agree because basically they're gonna treat me better so I'm actually gonna be 123 00:15:58,160 --> 00:16:04,720 on a better lifelines and also like that energy would have just gone to waste it would just dispersed 124 00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:11,680 or return back to the cosmos I don't know what energy does when it's like flowed through 125 00:16:11,680 --> 00:16:20,800 but that's pretty much like that story about the energy and another thing I wanted to touch on is 126 00:16:20,800 --> 00:16:29,920 the importance of being of presence like your presence and your focus levels so for context I 127 00:16:29,920 --> 00:16:38,080 had been meditating for maybe one or two years I don't know how long like maybe I started in like 128 00:16:38,080 --> 00:16:44,320 sophomore or junior year I don't know I'm in the beginning of senior year right now but 129 00:16:46,240 --> 00:16:56,320 I had been meditating at the gym after that I would like a year ago I would meditate after the gym 130 00:16:57,520 --> 00:17:03,840 at the gym and so I kind of tied my meditation to the gym and didn't meditate elsewhere 131 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:11,360 and so as a result I was pretty fairly consistent I'm meditating but there was many days where I missed 132 00:17:12,080 --> 00:17:19,600 and also the meditation was not deep it was like just like a three minute meditation and since I 133 00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:25,280 was in the middle of the gym there was a lot of distractions so it probably wasn't the greatest 134 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:34,640 kind of environment to meditate in but at least I did it and then I kind of stopped meditating until 135 00:17:34,640 --> 00:17:41,360 I saw a hamsa video when back when I was watching YouTube and in that video he talked about the 136 00:17:41,360 --> 00:17:49,200 importance of his focus like it was like an hour and a half long video and he was recording it 137 00:17:49,200 --> 00:17:57,280 unedited and he was in the zone like right off the bat the entire video and he never lost his 138 00:17:57,280 --> 00:18:03,440 focus once even though there was distractions like there was someone knocking on the door 139 00:18:04,640 --> 00:18:11,680 at his house and he definitely knew and he was still in the zone he did not lose focus 140 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:18,960 and so I realized like wow that is focus is so important and meditation is so important 141 00:18:18,960 --> 00:18:25,200 because that's how you get focus and he would like meditation allows you to get into the zone 142 00:18:25,200 --> 00:18:30,480 way easy way easier and more common and for longer and so he was basically teaching the 143 00:18:30,480 --> 00:18:40,480 importance of meditating and he said that meditating like don't meditate or I mean do meditate but 144 00:18:40,480 --> 00:18:45,280 he basically said the only way you're going to become consistent at meditating is to add it to 145 00:18:45,280 --> 00:18:52,000 your morning routine and that was my issue I wasn't consistent at meditating because I connected it 146 00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:59,040 to the gym but if I just connected if I add it to my morning routine then I'm basically going to 147 00:18:59,040 --> 00:19:05,200 do it every single day with no fail and that's what I've done actually I've been meditating 148 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:16,160 consistently every single day for the past like two months maybe two or three months and that is like 149 00:19:17,200 --> 00:19:26,560 in like a couple weeks in I was thinking okay when am I going to get the focus level that he has 150 00:19:26,560 --> 00:19:32,160 but I remember him saying that he's been meditating every single day for like I don't know what number 151 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:38,320 he said but for simplistic sake let's just say he's been meditating every single day for a year 152 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:46,000 and so I had been meditating for a few weeks at that point and I was like when am I going to get 153 00:19:46,000 --> 00:19:50,960 his focus level and then I kind of just forgot about it and then just locked in and just meditated 154 00:19:50,960 --> 00:20:01,600 every day and I didn't realize like the benefits that I got like I didn't actually see it until 155 00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:11,040 today now for context again today I we were all the seniors were in the auditorium and so I was 156 00:20:11,040 --> 00:20:19,040 sitting with a few of my friends and none of my friends meditate that's the context and they're 157 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:25,520 out like they all go on their phones well none of my school friends meditate basically and they're 158 00:20:25,520 --> 00:20:32,080 all on their phones a lot but that's context so one would assume that their mind is like scattered 159 00:20:32,080 --> 00:20:39,760 but this was not on the top of my head and I was like I was sitting in the auditorium and my focus 160 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:46,960 was immense like I was just extremely locked I was locked into the speaker and I was focused and then 161 00:20:47,680 --> 00:20:54,240 halfway through I noticed that my friend was like restless the entire time like he was like moving 162 00:20:54,240 --> 00:21:02,560 around a lot and it made me think like wow I'm like my mind is I've actually made a lot of progress 163 00:21:02,560 --> 00:21:09,840 because I would have been restless a couple months ago and I would have not been able to keep my 164 00:21:09,840 --> 00:21:18,240 focus for this long a couple months ago but now I can actually I'm actually like extremely focused 165 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:26,720 now and I'm not where I want to be yet but I'm definitely making progress and today was a very 166 00:21:26,720 --> 00:21:33,680 good like refresher and maybe you guys will be able to see like in my episodes like towards the 167 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:42,000 beginning of the like the first few episodes I'm sure I was not very focused and I actually remember 168 00:21:42,000 --> 00:21:52,400 one of the episodes a couple weeks ago I actually I think it was my worst episode yet and I had so 169 00:21:52,400 --> 00:22:04,720 low energy and I was basically like yawning the whole time and I didn't know what to say 170 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:10,880 and I'm pretty sure if you looked back on that episode now I don't remember exactly what episode 171 00:22:10,880 --> 00:22:16,720 it was but if you were to look back on that episode you'd be able to tell like the difference of my 172 00:22:16,720 --> 00:22:23,440 focus levels and one of the things that I was doing during that episode I was literally surfing the 173 00:22:23,440 --> 00:22:30,960 web I was like looking things up I think that episode I was looking up like places to stay in 174 00:22:30,960 --> 00:22:39,200 Hawaii like that is like that is so bad for your focus and after that episode I realized like that 175 00:22:39,200 --> 00:22:44,080 is one of the biggest reasons why I was that was such a bad episode because I was literally like 176 00:22:44,080 --> 00:22:49,120 looking things up and I'm pretty sure I did it again in the following few episodes and so one 177 00:22:49,120 --> 00:22:57,520 day I like decided not to look anything up not to use my computer at all and now I basically just 178 00:22:57,520 --> 00:23:03,680 stare at a fan or stare at something because my computer is on the whole time like back in my 179 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:10,080 early episodes I was using a voice recorder which is not connected to the computer it was just like 180 00:23:10,080 --> 00:23:18,080 a mobile like voice recorder and so I just recorded on that and I turned off my monitor 181 00:23:18,080 --> 00:23:24,400 of my computer so I wouldn't get distracted but now my computer is on because I'm record I have a 182 00:23:24,400 --> 00:23:31,840 microphone that's connected to my PC so I'm actually like recording through my computer so it's on 183 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:39,920 with the recording software pulled up and so it's like it is stuff to look at like every once in a 184 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:46,960 while I peek at like how much time has been left like how much time has been spent and how much time 185 00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:54,880 is left and I'm sure that definitely like reduces my focus and reduces my flow and I'm actually 186 00:23:54,880 --> 00:23:59,600 starting to become I actually just now became conscious of that while I'm saying that that I'm 187 00:23:59,600 --> 00:24:06,800 I'm pretty sure checking the time reduces like lowers my flow but now like basically what I like to 188 00:24:06,800 --> 00:24:13,040 do is I just stare at something like or I just look in like a general direction and not look at 189 00:24:13,040 --> 00:24:19,520 anything particular like right now I'm I always record in my basement and so right now I'm basically 190 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:26,160 just looking in the direction of like the stairs and my dad's desk and like this fan but I'm not 191 00:24:26,160 --> 00:24:31,920 really noting anything particular I'm just looking in that direction and just focusing entirely on 192 00:24:32,800 --> 00:24:39,120 like speaking and what I'm saying and that is basically what I saw Hamza doing a couple months 193 00:24:39,120 --> 00:24:46,240 ago when I saw that video before I had even gotten into consistent meditation and he was 194 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:51,760 basically he was just talking like he was in the zone and nothing broke his own he was in the zone 195 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:58,800 for like an hour and a half and he had actually said that that was like the sixth video he recorded 196 00:24:58,800 --> 00:25:06,480 or something like that like he had recorded like four videos already all like hour long videos 197 00:25:07,280 --> 00:25:13,440 and so the fact that he was able to stay in the zone for like four hours straight 198 00:25:14,880 --> 00:25:21,200 looking back on it that's really inspiring because I'm probably not even at one hour straight yet 199 00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:29,200 like I'm I'm not able to like fully stay in the zone and fully like only talk like there's a lot of 200 00:25:29,200 --> 00:25:34,160 times like throughout my episodes I'm always like saying let me get some water real quick because 201 00:25:34,720 --> 00:25:39,520 one my throat is like dry like right now my throat is starting to get dry so I'm probably 202 00:25:39,520 --> 00:25:47,760 going to get some water anyways but two a lot of the times I use that as a like a crutch kind of 203 00:25:47,760 --> 00:25:54,160 for a few to buy a few seconds to think about something like think of something to say and 204 00:25:54,160 --> 00:26:01,840 usually that is just enough to come up with something to start talking and that's basically 205 00:26:01,840 --> 00:26:07,760 like where I'm at so I think that I've been in the zone for like the past 20 minutes maybe but I'm 206 00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:16,640 I'm starting to lose focus and so meditation is extremely beneficial for that and now that I've 207 00:26:16,640 --> 00:26:24,960 done the hemisync like like okay the gateway process the gateway experience those waves like 208 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:33,840 they're they made those tapes because they made them specifically to allow you to get into deeper 209 00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:38,800 meditation that you wouldn't have been able to get otherwise so quickly like you would have been 210 00:26:38,800 --> 00:26:44,240 able to get in that meditation but it would have taken years of practice and these tapes basically 211 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:52,800 play noises in your brain like they're there it's hemisync so they basically play like two different 212 00:26:52,800 --> 00:27:00,160 sounds one sound in the right side and then one sound in the left ear and they combine it so like 213 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:07,280 they're playing these sounds at the same time and it produces like a third noise basically because 214 00:27:07,280 --> 00:27:12,720 it's like I don't even know how it works but it's basically you're hearing a noise in your left ear 215 00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:18,320 and then a different noise in your right ear and then that as a result produces like a third noise 216 00:27:19,760 --> 00:27:25,600 I don't even know how it works but basically it unifies your brain like there was a picture 217 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:39,120 on the the guidebook that they like added that that they had in the in the wave one packet with 218 00:27:39,120 --> 00:27:45,520 the three CDs in it and there's a picture on the guidebook where it was basically like a brain scan 219 00:27:45,520 --> 00:27:52,240 and there was one brain scan with no hemisync and a brain scan with hemisync and basically 220 00:27:52,240 --> 00:27:59,440 the no hemisync was kind of just like the normal brain it was like it showed like they had colors 221 00:27:59,440 --> 00:28:06,480 to represent like your wavelengths and so it was kind of like scattered the brain was kind of like 222 00:28:06,480 --> 00:28:13,120 unorganized but then with hemisync the brain was like organized and it was like uniform and it was 223 00:28:13,120 --> 00:28:21,600 united it was all like the left side and the right side were united and I could definitely tell something 224 00:28:21,600 --> 00:28:27,600 was up last night and this morning like the first time I got into hemisync I don't know if it was 225 00:28:27,600 --> 00:28:34,560 placebo or like just that pure excitement but I definitely felt something like my focus was 226 00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:44,560 definitely enhanced with this hemisync and so I've only done two sessions of it and I've heard 227 00:28:44,560 --> 00:28:52,080 like great things from people practicing it consistently over time because right now since I 228 00:28:52,720 --> 00:28:59,120 have never done hemisync before and I've never really meditated consistently for too long my 229 00:28:59,120 --> 00:29:09,760 brain is not united like my left side and the right side of my mind are not united but hemisync 230 00:29:09,760 --> 00:29:15,920 will work towards uniting it like the more I practice this with this hemisync technology 231 00:29:16,720 --> 00:29:22,160 it will like unify my left and right side of my brain and I'll just become more of an optimal 232 00:29:22,160 --> 00:29:27,600 human being and there's this metaphor that I was using over the past two episodes where 233 00:29:27,600 --> 00:29:38,400 basically if you tried to bike so imagine a bicycle has two wheels imagine if one wheel 234 00:29:38,400 --> 00:29:44,400 was tilted to the left and then the other the front wheel was tilted to the right like that 235 00:29:44,400 --> 00:29:49,680 just wouldn't work but that's basically what happens that's basically our minds right now 236 00:29:50,960 --> 00:29:57,120 because they're not united especially with like the advent of social media and the internet and 237 00:29:57,120 --> 00:30:04,960 all this information that's at our fingertips our minds are like divided but with the hemisync and 238 00:30:04,960 --> 00:30:12,160 also you can just do this with like normal meditation or just like mindfulness I'm pretty sure 239 00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:18,720 you can do this but hemisync is like the most effective way and the most time efficient way 240 00:30:18,720 --> 00:30:26,480 to train and like to realign your two wheels like realign the front and the back tires of 241 00:30:26,480 --> 00:30:33,360 your bicycle and this metaphor I'm using a bicycle as a brain so it's basically hemisync is realigning 242 00:30:33,360 --> 00:30:41,440 your brain to how it should work properly and so right now I'm 17 I'm almost 18 well actually no I 243 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:53,360 am 18 as of the time you guys will hear this but as of recording I'm not 18 but I basically 244 00:30:53,360 --> 00:31:04,560 I've lived 17 years of my life with a broken bicycle basically my bike was tilted the wheels were 245 00:31:04,560 --> 00:31:10,480 tilted in opposite directions so if I've lived 17 years of my life with a broken bicycle and I've 246 00:31:10,480 --> 00:31:16,880 gone gotten this far imagine how far I'll get once I like unify my bicycle and actually make it 247 00:31:16,880 --> 00:31:22,320 working optimally and effectively so that's basically like where I'm at right now and I find 248 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:34,160 that hemisync is a huge like it'll actually help train that a lot let me get some water 249 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:47,040 all right so there is this one thing that I was talking about 250 00:31:47,040 --> 00:31:53,920 or there's this one thing I wanted to talk about which to be honest I had completely just forgotten 251 00:31:53,920 --> 00:32:01,520 what it was I just slipped my mind but I'm kind of just hoping it comes to me and there's while 252 00:32:01,520 --> 00:32:06,960 I'm talking about or while I'm waiting for it to come back I actually just remembered this huge 253 00:32:06,960 --> 00:32:12,640 like this really important exercise that actually relates to what I need right now and in the 254 00:32:12,640 --> 00:32:18,640 hemisync packet and also in the first CD they talked about this or it was either the first or the 255 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:25,520 second CD but basically if in like waking consciousness like throughout the day if you need to remember 256 00:32:25,520 --> 00:32:33,520 something place all of your fingers of your right hand on your forehead and try and remember 257 00:32:35,360 --> 00:32:41,680 try and like and then anything that you like desire to remember will come to you and they 258 00:32:41,680 --> 00:32:47,360 said like the more you use this like the more practice you have with this the more effective and 259 00:32:47,360 --> 00:32:58,480 the more often and the quicker the results will be so I have not I haven't reminded myself of 260 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:04,240 what I was about to talk about but that's basically wait I feel it on the tip of my tongue 261 00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:13,120 I don't know but that's basically like the exercise that they talked about that may or may not 262 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:21,040 work but I'm gonna test it out over the following days and once I like get good at it hopefully 263 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:30,880 I'll be able to use it very well but that hemisync I'm really like looking forward to it and it 264 00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:38,720 actually took like one or two weeks it almost took a week to get here and so I'm thinking maybe I 265 00:33:38,720 --> 00:33:45,760 should just go ahead and buy wave two if it's just gonna take a week because then by the time wave 266 00:33:45,760 --> 00:33:52,080 two gets here I'll pretty much be ready to move on or else if I just waited until I was ready to 267 00:33:52,080 --> 00:33:58,320 move on I'd have to wait like a whole another week but then again it wouldn't be too bad because 268 00:33:58,320 --> 00:34:06,480 I'd be able to get a lot more practice with wave one because wave one is all about focus 10 and I 269 00:34:06,480 --> 00:34:13,840 haven't even achieved focus 10 yet and then wave two is about focus 12 and you had to get into focus 270 00:34:13,840 --> 00:34:22,320 10 to be able to get into focus 12 so that's basically that but there's this one thing that 271 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:35,600 I was thinking of it is extremely like the the trait or the ability to throw out your worldview 272 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:44,080 is so great that's what I learned in Transurfing to be able to throw out my worldview because 273 00:34:44,080 --> 00:34:50,800 if I wasn't able to throw out my worldview I would not have even believed this gateway process stuff 274 00:34:50,800 --> 00:34:54,800 because this gateway process is like just out of my worldview but it's starting to become 275 00:34:54,800 --> 00:35:00,080 incorporated into it if I were to have learned about this gateway process one year ago I thought I 276 00:35:00,080 --> 00:35:06,640 would have just thought oh this is like some weird mystical stuff and it's like probably not true 277 00:35:07,840 --> 00:35:13,680 but now I definitely know that it's true and I'm just walking forward to achieving the goal 278 00:35:13,680 --> 00:35:21,680 and I'm like if this thing that I was trying to remember to talk about is on the tip of my 279 00:35:21,680 --> 00:35:28,560 tongue but I just lost it so I remembered to get it once I grabbed my water bottle a couple minutes 280 00:35:28,560 --> 00:35:34,000 go and then I lost it when I was drinking the water so I'm gonna try and recreate that process so 281 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:45,440 let me get some water 282 00:35:48,880 --> 00:35:53,600 nope it didn't come back but I did think of this one thing while I was doing that and 283 00:35:55,440 --> 00:36:03,280 expectations so this is one of the things that if you impose your expectations on like these 284 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:10,960 practices or on other people then that is like negative and that's bad because if you impose 285 00:36:10,960 --> 00:36:19,520 your expectations on all right actually let me start with this the gateway process like all 286 00:36:19,520 --> 00:36:28,640 these meditations is it's it will negatively affect you if you have expectations towards 287 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:35,200 achieving certain results with the gateway process like if you have expectations to have 288 00:36:35,200 --> 00:36:42,880 a certain experience they say just drop your expectations and just allow whatever experience 289 00:36:42,880 --> 00:36:48,560 you have and just accept the fact that whatever experience you experience was your experience 290 00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:56,000 and it was supposed to happen as is and don't try and like manipulate anything just let it happen 291 00:36:56,000 --> 00:37:04,320 and that's I think that I when I was doing that water bottle a couple moments ago I had an expectation 292 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:12,240 that I was gonna recall that that thing that I was trying to talk about but I didn't or I did have an 293 00:37:12,240 --> 00:37:22,640 expectation and I wasn't able to recall it so drop the expectation but I'm pretty sure that I remember 294 00:37:22,640 --> 00:37:29,600 hearing like my friend said that Vadim Zellin said that you're you should have expectations for 295 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:41,120 things to improve in the future like for your life to improve excuse me so that is probably I don't 296 00:37:41,120 --> 00:37:53,360 know I'll have to get into that but the reality Transurfing book that book is definitely like it 297 00:37:53,360 --> 00:38:05,040 has everything and I was just like thinking about this it's got everything in it like that book has 298 00:38:05,040 --> 00:38:11,520 a lot of the principles from expert secrets it's got a lot of the principles from Dale Carnegie's 299 00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:17,360 how to win friends and influence others it's got a lot of the principles from David Dieders the way 300 00:38:17,360 --> 00:38:23,760 the spirit man and it's got much much more like that book has like five different books combined 301 00:38:23,760 --> 00:38:32,000 in it well yeah it is five books combined of five of Vadim Zellin's books like of Transurfing one 302 00:38:32,000 --> 00:38:40,960 Transurfing two three four five but it's got like the content of like five completely different 303 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:52,160 books like how to win friends and David like the way the spirit man and expert secrets are arguably 304 00:38:52,160 --> 00:39:00,640 completely different books even though they all have a common like they all have common principle 305 00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:10,000 amongst them all and that is Transurfing and just reading it this morning I'm extremely grateful that 306 00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:17,760 I have this book and I learned about this book because it was like the way I discovered it I 307 00:39:17,760 --> 00:39:23,520 really just shouldn't have learned it like the circumstances of me having discovered that book 308 00:39:25,360 --> 00:39:29,920 the odds were extremely low for me to have actually gone through with buying the book 309 00:39:29,920 --> 00:39:36,560 and actually thinking about it because at the time I was watching a lot of YouTube shorts and 310 00:39:36,560 --> 00:39:42,160 I was seeing a lot of book recommendations that I would just like swipe by but this one particular 311 00:39:42,160 --> 00:39:51,120 video it was just like a dude that like asked Iman Gazi if he had any like what he's studying right 312 00:39:51,120 --> 00:39:57,760 now and then Iman Gazi just said like Trans Reality Transurfing and then that was the video that's it 313 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:08,320 and then like I was like destined or not destined but I was like on any other video like that I 314 00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:14,240 would have just swiped by but for some reason I actually like looked up that book and actually 315 00:40:14,240 --> 00:40:21,920 like bought it even though it was like $60 so I bought it and then I actually read it which was 316 00:40:21,920 --> 00:40:28,560 crazy because at the time the longest book I'd ever read was probably like 250 pages and I 317 00:40:28,560 --> 00:40:38,240 thought that was a long book and this book was three times that it was 750 pages long and 318 00:40:40,320 --> 00:40:46,480 I didn't even read it all the way through the first time I got like 200 pages in and then switched 319 00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:56,800 books and then I read it all back after that but but I read it very quickly and like this time I 320 00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:11,040 started reading it like a long time ago I think it was like August 1st or July maybe July 1st or 321 00:41:11,040 --> 00:41:20,880 August 1st I don't know and well actually no I started studying on the first which was probably 322 00:41:20,880 --> 00:41:27,760 August 1st so it's been like a month and a half since I started studying and the first page that I 323 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:33,840 started studying was 63 so I'd probably read for a few days before that so it's been like a month 324 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:41,680 and a half of just reading only Transurfing every single day and towards like in the first half 325 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:48,240 of the book I would read like no for the first like quarter I was reading like three pages a day 326 00:41:48,240 --> 00:41:56,640 maybe maybe two pages a day and then I started to ramp things up once I realized that funnel hacking 327 00:41:56,640 --> 00:42:04,720 live was around the corner and I wanted to finish Transurfing before that so that I can switch to the 328 00:42:04,720 --> 00:42:11,440 linchpin during funnel hacking live so I like calculated the amount of pages I had to read 329 00:42:11,440 --> 00:42:20,880 every single day if I wanted to be done by funnel hacking live and it was like 15 and then now if I 330 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:28,320 calculated it again I think it's probably around 20 so I got I basically am trying to finish it 331 00:42:28,320 --> 00:42:44,560 before I'm trying to finish it in like 12 days and I'm on like page 550 yeah 550 and there so I 332 00:42:44,560 --> 00:42:55,600 basically have 200 pages left wait is that right because I remember this morning saying 250 I don't 333 00:42:55,600 --> 00:43:05,440 know let's just say 250 pages left divided by 12 that's probably like 18 around there so I think 334 00:43:05,440 --> 00:43:16,160 I'm on the right track but that's pretty much where I'm at with that and I'm definitely gonna be maintaining 335 00:43:16,160 --> 00:43:27,440 my my meditations because I'm my goal well I'm not gonna create a goal right now but my ideal plan 336 00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:36,720 that my brain is making right now is to be able to get focus at least focus 10 by the time funnel 337 00:43:36,720 --> 00:43:45,440 hacking live comes around so I want to be able to get focus 10 in like before like within 12 days 338 00:43:45,440 --> 00:43:53,360 and be able to get it consistently excuse me I want to be able to get focus 10 which is the first 339 00:43:53,360 --> 00:44:04,560 level of deep meditation well focus 3 is technically but the first like level that is basically where 340 00:44:04,560 --> 00:44:11,360 your it's mind awake body asleep it's basically where your body is asleep like during the night 341 00:44:11,360 --> 00:44:18,960 time your body is asleep it's like paralyzed um but if you were to just if your mind was awake 342 00:44:18,960 --> 00:44:24,240 then that would be you'd be in the focus 10 state so it's basically when your body is paralyzed but 343 00:44:24,240 --> 00:44:32,560 your mind is wide awake and I want to do that on the plane ride to Florida and on the way home 344 00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:41,280 because I'm gonna bring my CD player and headphones with me on my carry on and meditate on the way 345 00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:48,240 there and then read the linchpin as well afterwards and I think that would be a great way to kind of 346 00:44:48,240 --> 00:44:57,840 like use the plane ride because I'll basically be able oh that would be insane I just thought of 347 00:44:57,840 --> 00:45:02,960 this one thing so there's this thing called an out-of-body experience it's real by the way 348 00:45:03,520 --> 00:45:10,160 and a couple months ago I did not think it was real but now I know it's real and I'm gonna 349 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:16,960 I'm practicing to actually build a cheap one but that's not really my goal right now but it's like my 350 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:24,240 my longer term goal with meditation to be able to achieve out-of-body experience at will like 351 00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:32,400 people are able to get out-of-body experiences like consistently whenever they want through meditation 352 00:45:32,400 --> 00:45:39,200 and I just thought of something because when you have an out-of-body experience your soul your 353 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:48,720 soul basically like leaves your body and then you can like fly around the world and so I just 354 00:45:48,720 --> 00:45:57,520 imagined what it would be like to have an out-of-body experience in a plane so while you're flying 355 00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:03,360 have an out-of-body experience I don't even know how that would work because you're moving in the air 356 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:12,400 so if you just have your out-of-body experience like right there then when you leave your body 357 00:46:12,400 --> 00:46:19,280 will you just instantly fly behind like all right so since you're moving 358 00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:26,000 well and you leave your body will you stay in the plane or will you like 359 00:46:27,600 --> 00:46:32,240 get pushed out of the plane because you're still and the plane is moving I don't know if I'm 360 00:46:32,240 --> 00:46:39,200 explaining this right so imagine you're in a plane and the reason why you're moving you're 361 00:46:39,200 --> 00:46:43,680 still like you're moving hundreds of miles per hour on the plane because you're like 362 00:46:44,640 --> 00:46:50,720 grounded to it and you're kind of like attached to it so imagine what would happen if you were like 363 00:46:50,720 --> 00:46:57,600 you just turned into a ghost do you think that you would stay in the plane or would you 364 00:46:57,600 --> 00:47:06,480 like stay in that location like that like location where you're at but since the plane is moving the 365 00:47:06,480 --> 00:47:12,000 plane would just fly straight through you and then you'd stay in that same spot I wonder how that 366 00:47:12,000 --> 00:47:17,760 would work with an out-of-body experience that would be very interesting to experience because 367 00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:24,960 if you could have an out-of-body experience while on a plane ride you could like if you could make 368 00:47:24,960 --> 00:47:32,160 it last the entire plane ride you could just sleep through the whole plane and then fly 369 00:47:33,200 --> 00:47:38,720 with the plane on the side of it the entire ride like four hours or two hours or however long the 370 00:47:38,720 --> 00:47:46,560 plane is the ride is you could just like fly near it that would be so sick but 371 00:47:46,560 --> 00:47:55,760 but I hope that you guys don't get too like weirded out by this because honestly this stuff is 372 00:47:55,760 --> 00:48:02,560 starting to become normal to me like I'm when I first learned about this a couple weeks ago I was 373 00:48:02,560 --> 00:48:10,480 like I was kind of like weird it felt weird but like this stuff is starting to come normal to me 374 00:48:10,480 --> 00:48:17,440 to where I like I'm starting to genuinely believe that it's real and it's just simply takes practice 375 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:24,160 to be able to get it so I'll get it and with once I get it I'll like tell you guys my stories 376 00:48:24,160 --> 00:48:32,320 and experiences on that but that's another thing that I remember this morning I during my medicine 377 00:48:32,320 --> 00:48:41,360 ball balancing time oh and I also have another thing to say about breathing um so during my 378 00:48:41,360 --> 00:48:48,080 balancing ball balancing 10 minutes every day I do this morning I only did like five minutes because 379 00:48:48,640 --> 00:48:54,080 this every single time I get on my balance was just terrible this morning for some reason I was like 380 00:48:54,080 --> 00:49:00,880 falling off the ball every single time so I just cut it short and just like cut my losses 381 00:49:00,880 --> 00:49:11,360 and but this morning I actually added a new thing to my morning routine which kind of extends my morning 382 00:49:11,360 --> 00:49:20,320 like 20 minutes well actually I added two things so the one thing extends it like 10 minutes but 383 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:29,360 the other thing extends it like 15 minutes maybe so the first thing I added was I after my shower 384 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:40,640 before I start cooking food this is at like 4 20 in the morning I after my shower I go outside and 385 00:49:40,640 --> 00:49:47,440 walk around the block and it's just like a 10 minute walk and the reason why I'm doing that is 386 00:49:47,440 --> 00:49:55,440 because for the past couple weeks I've been trying to basically improve my breathing and fix my 387 00:49:55,440 --> 00:50:03,200 breathing because that is one of the biggest health things that I'm not doing and once you fix your 388 00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:08,160 breathing your health will be like way better and your energy levels will be better and your 389 00:50:08,160 --> 00:50:15,520 awareness will be like really good and that is like that's the big reason why I'm really focusing 390 00:50:15,520 --> 00:50:23,680 on this is because the awareness and the awareness is like really good for transurfing as well 391 00:50:23,680 --> 00:50:32,720 and that is basically where I'm at with that and for the past couple weeks I've been trying to do it 392 00:50:32,720 --> 00:50:38,720 but I will like my bolt score I've been tracking it for a decent amount of time I have this sheet 393 00:50:38,720 --> 00:50:44,800 of paper right next to my bed that I just write it down every single morning and the bolt score by 394 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:49,920 the way is a means of tracking how healthy your breathing is and you want 40 seconds at least 395 00:50:49,920 --> 00:50:59,200 but for me my bolt score is like six seconds this morning and it got up to 19 and then it 396 00:50:59,200 --> 00:51:04,720 went down and that just shows me that I'm not consistent at my breathing and the only way to 397 00:51:04,720 --> 00:51:12,320 come consistent or not the only way but what I've been talking about in my podcast like a lot over 398 00:51:12,320 --> 00:51:18,800 the past couple weeks not like over the a couple weeks ago I was talking about this a lot and I'm 399 00:51:18,800 --> 00:51:25,360 pretty sure there's some episode called like consistency is key or something like that and I 400 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:30,160 it's because if you want to become consistent just add it to your routine add it to your morning 401 00:51:30,160 --> 00:51:36,800 routine or nighttime routine and that's what I've been doing with my medicine ball balancing with 402 00:51:37,680 --> 00:51:45,280 like breath work through a straw like many different things but the one most important thing 403 00:51:45,280 --> 00:51:52,240 that I needed to improve on my breathing I didn't add to my morning routine so I changed that this 404 00:51:52,240 --> 00:51:58,320 morning and I added a 10 minute walk into my morning routine where I basically walk around my block 405 00:51:58,320 --> 00:52:06,160 at four in the morning it's like pitch blackout but we have I live in like the city so we live we've 406 00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:14,880 got like street lights so I can see but I walk around and I do a nose unblocking exercise whereas 407 00:52:14,880 --> 00:52:20,960 basically you breathe in and out normally and then you on the after the exhale you hold your breath 408 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:27,600 so you have like no oxygen in your lungs basically you hold your breath and then you just start walking 409 00:52:28,320 --> 00:52:36,240 and however you count the paces my record is like 61 I think I was able to walk 61 paces 410 00:52:36,880 --> 00:52:43,440 and once you have a strong you walk until you have a strong urge to breathe and then you breathe in 411 00:52:43,440 --> 00:52:52,720 through your nose like you only breathe in through your nose and then you try and calm and control 412 00:52:52,720 --> 00:52:58,960 your breathing like instantly right or like right away like don't lose your don't get your breathing 413 00:52:58,960 --> 00:53:08,720 out of control and so I did that this morning mindful mind you my record was 61 steps this morning 414 00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:15,760 my I could only get 30 steps so that just shows that I lost a lot of my progress but now that it's in 415 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:22,080 my routine I'm as long as I just do this and follow my routine every day I'm basically guaranteed 416 00:53:22,080 --> 00:53:31,360 success and so I what my original intention was to do eight of those eight sets so one set is 417 00:53:31,360 --> 00:53:38,640 just one exercise like 30 steps or 40 however much you can do and my original intention was 418 00:53:38,640 --> 00:53:45,760 to do eight but this morning I could only do seven and that's probably because I walked like my resting 419 00:53:45,760 --> 00:53:55,760 I would walk like one or two minutes to rest my like lungs to like recollect my breath but this 420 00:53:55,760 --> 00:54:02,320 morning I'm probably or tomorrow morning I'm probably gonna try and hit eight by like pushing 421 00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:10,720 myself harder and further by resting a little bit less so that's basically what I'm doing with that 422 00:54:10,720 --> 00:54:18,240 to increase my bolt score and to make my breathing way better let me get some water 423 00:54:18,240 --> 00:54:28,240 so 424 00:54:32,080 --> 00:54:40,960 so I have been eating very healthy for the past couple like pretty much all of 2023 425 00:54:40,960 --> 00:54:50,320 yeah for all of 2023 I've been eating healthy in January I read my first book on diet which 426 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:57,680 was called the china study and then I was vegan from like January until March pretty much I was 427 00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:05,920 vegan for like three months I think and then I switched back to eating meat um after I read 428 00:55:05,920 --> 00:55:15,280 estro generation and now I'm pretty much I learned a lot more and I learned about seed oils so pretty 429 00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:22,480 much for the past couple of months like for since like the beginning of summer is when I started 430 00:55:22,480 --> 00:55:33,760 cutting out seed oils I've been extremely healthy and my my diet has been very good for the past 431 00:55:33,760 --> 00:55:42,320 couple months and even when I'm on vacation and going and traveling I make sure to maintain my 432 00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:48,880 diet and a lot of times I like to bring my cast iron skillet yeah I use a cast iron because a 433 00:55:48,880 --> 00:55:58,720 non-stick pan is really bad for your health and I use a cast iron skillet and a lot of times I 434 00:55:58,720 --> 00:56:04,480 just bring it with me to vacation or like out of town when I'm going to like my grandma's house 435 00:56:05,280 --> 00:56:15,040 and so when I'm going to funnel hacking live like in by the time this post it'll be in like five 436 00:56:15,040 --> 00:56:24,400 days so I think on okay so on the 26th is when I'm going I'm going from the 26th until the first 437 00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:32,160 so I'm going to be gone for like five days and that's like five days of eating and we made my 438 00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:42,400 friend booked a hotel that is that has a like a kitchen inside of the room which is awesome 439 00:56:44,080 --> 00:56:52,960 and we have a stove like a stove top in the in our hotel room so I'm definitely going to be 440 00:56:52,960 --> 00:57:04,960 bringing my cast iron and cooking like my food in there that's amazing for me but that trip is 441 00:57:04,960 --> 00:57:10,960 gonna be awesome we're me and my friend are basically going to Florida to learn from a dude we've 442 00:57:10,960 --> 00:57:18,560 been studying like pretty much all of summer and I stopped studying him a couple weeks back because 443 00:57:18,560 --> 00:57:24,400 I wanted to I was spreading myself too thin reading trans surfing and expert secrets 444 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:29,600 so but I've read all of his stuff except for the linchpin 445 00:57:32,160 --> 00:57:40,400 and honestly like he has changed the game for me like I'm very grateful I was talking 446 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:47,120 my friend about this the other day I'm extremely grateful about finding the right books to read 447 00:57:47,120 --> 00:57:54,320 about entrepreneurship like the first book that I read about entrepreneurship was dot com secrets 448 00:57:55,200 --> 00:58:01,280 well not necessarily entrepreneurship but the first book that I read about business like actual 449 00:58:01,840 --> 00:58:09,440 strategic thinking about business because I read the millionaire fast lane and unscripted 450 00:58:09,440 --> 00:58:16,080 which I wouldn't say is business really I mean it is business actually yeah it is business but 451 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:25,680 it's not really like it's just like general strategies and but dot com secrets is like 452 00:58:25,680 --> 00:58:33,200 actual tactics and so I that was I'm so grateful that that was the first book that I read about 453 00:58:34,480 --> 00:58:42,880 actual tactics and business tactics because that changed the game for me like I'm so grateful that I 454 00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:49,920 got introduced into business like that and not like old methods that don't work anymore or some 455 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:59,120 something that everyone is able to do and just thinking about business through the lens of funnels 456 00:58:59,120 --> 00:59:08,080 and value ladder and just all of the things that he teaches it's just so it's so like it's exactly 457 00:59:08,080 --> 00:59:13,920 what I needed to learn and plus expert secrets and traffic secrets really allowed me to learn a lot 458 00:59:14,480 --> 00:59:21,200 and honestly I'm not really applying too much of it like I canceled my click funnel subscription 459 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:27,520 and I haven't had a click funnel subscription for like at least a month now and that's just because 460 00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:36,240 I don't want to pay money because I'm not using it yet but definitely I foresee in the near future 461 00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:42,240 I'm gonna get click funnels again and actually start like legitimately running a business 462 00:59:43,040 --> 00:59:48,800 because right now the only thing for business that I'm actually doing is the podcast which is 463 00:59:48,800 --> 00:59:55,840 don't get me wrong that's extremely beneficial and it's like exactly what I need to be doing but 464 00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:02,640 it's not making money yet and that's pretty much where I'm at right now in my business and 465 01:00:02,640 --> 01:00:09,600 that's that's it for the episode so to wrap things up don't forget to download your favorite episodes 466 01:00:09,600 --> 01:00:33,520 and subscribe to the Ascent Momentum show but before you guys leave make sure
