1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,920 Listen to your heart. So this I was originally taught or I originally learned 2 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:17,400 about this concept in a book called Reality Transurfing and I learned about 3 00:00:17,400 --> 00:00:24,520 it and I didn't really, I never really applied it. It was just one of those 4 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:31,240 concepts that kind of seemed foreign and I didn't really, I didn't really 5 00:00:31,240 --> 00:00:39,600 understand what it meant or even bother to try and apply it. And let me just 6 00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:48,040 explain. There's the heart and the mind. So in Transurfing the heart is basically 7 00:00:48,040 --> 00:00:52,640 it knows everything. It has emotions and it feels things and it tells you things. 8 00:00:52,640 --> 00:00:58,840 It sends kind of messages to your mind and then the mind is like the logical 9 00:00:58,840 --> 00:01:05,800 analytical thing that perceives and takes in information and kind of makes 10 00:01:05,800 --> 00:01:13,080 decisions based off of that. But the mind only analyzes things and it only 11 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:21,280 thinks. It doesn't really know but the the heart knows. So I read Transurfing, 12 00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:26,080 never really applied it and then I read it a second time and then I started to 13 00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:32,800 get into it and I started to actually think about the heart and the mind and 14 00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:39,560 still I didn't really apply it too much but I started like being more conscious 15 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:44,560 of it and actually started to listen to it a little bit more in my heart. Like 16 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:52,120 during certain things if I felt tense I would just listen to my heart and figure 17 00:01:52,120 --> 00:01:59,920 out what it's like what's wrong. And this has actually helped me a lot. So you 18 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:05,520 could probably tell that it's pride. I'm pride due for a haircut. I haven't had a 19 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:10,960 haircut in a couple months and it's because I had the last haircut I had was 20 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:16,680 not good. Actually not the last one, the second to last one I had. It was not good. 21 00:02:16,680 --> 00:02:26,320 So I've told this story before but it was wintertime last year, a couple months ago, 22 00:02:26,320 --> 00:02:34,960 about like eight months ago maybe. And I remember I this was back when I was going 23 00:02:34,960 --> 00:02:40,800 to the gym every morning at like six in the morning and I'd be done by eight. So 24 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:47,720 I go I went to the gym and then this was on a day where there was no school. I went 25 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:56,320 to the gym and I biked to the haircut place. Great clips. And I didn't actually 26 00:02:56,320 --> 00:03:05,240 need a haircut but I was just told that I needed a haircut by certain messages that 27 00:03:05,240 --> 00:03:10,240 I heard. I just heard passing comments like oh when you get a haircut. And those 28 00:03:10,240 --> 00:03:15,520 were just I didn't actually need a haircut and my hair was like just on the 29 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:23,960 verge of looking good. And for some context the best I'd ever like the best 30 00:03:23,960 --> 00:03:29,280 hairstyle that I'd ever had was in the beginning of the year junior year. Beginning 31 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:34,960 of the school year, my junior year. So around about one year ago. And the hairstyle 32 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:44,440 looked similar to this. Just like long wave, like long hair with I don't even 33 00:03:44,440 --> 00:03:50,800 know how to describe it but people say like the beaver flow. And so I had that 34 00:03:50,800 --> 00:03:54,400 haircut and then I got it cut unfortunately and it was terrible. And 35 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:59,440 then I grew it out again and then I got it cut. And this time when I got it cut 36 00:03:59,440 --> 00:04:05,360 I should have grown it out longer. But when I went after the gym it was this 37 00:04:05,360 --> 00:04:10,000 cold day. I was just sitting outside of the haircut place waiting for it to open. 38 00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:17,200 I was waiting there for like 10 minutes. And I was the first one there because it 39 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:22,720 was just opening. And I was like looking inside and I already felt 40 00:04:22,720 --> 00:04:26,440 inner tension. Like my heart was screaming no get out of here. Like this is 41 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:30,920 not a good idea. And I was looking inside and I saw a bunch of red flags. Like 42 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:37,840 they're open like 15 minutes late. They were dressed like one of the 43 00:04:37,840 --> 00:04:44,120 people in there she was dressing like one of the employees was dressed like 44 00:04:44,120 --> 00:04:50,640 she just got out of a nightclub. And then once I actually ended up walking in 45 00:04:50,640 --> 00:04:57,120 they like she would smell like smoke. Just like a lot of red flags. And when I was 46 00:04:57,120 --> 00:05:00,760 standing there at the tree for literally 10 minutes I was just 10 to 15 47 00:05:00,760 --> 00:05:05,520 minutes I was just standing there watching. And that's whole time my heart 48 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:11,280 was screaming like no get out of here. Like this is not a good idea. And mind you 49 00:05:11,280 --> 00:05:15,120 I was studying transfer at the time. Like I was aware of the heart in the mind. 50 00:05:15,120 --> 00:05:21,880 And I was like oh this is the Russell the morning stars. But my logical reasoning 51 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:27,160 analytical mind basically said no. And then it gave a very reasonable argument 52 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:31,960 against leaving. And it basically said no I need a haircut. Like everyone 53 00:05:31,960 --> 00:05:39,680 told me that. So I decided to stay based off of the convincing of my mind. And 54 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:46,600 then I it was my it was time to it was open finally. And I walked in got my 55 00:05:46,600 --> 00:05:52,840 haircut and she took probably an hour and a half to cut my hair. Like it was the 56 00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:57,480 longest haircut I had ever had. And I was just sitting there smelling the smoke 57 00:05:57,480 --> 00:06:03,000 the whole time. And it was just not a good experience sitting there. And then 58 00:06:03,000 --> 00:06:07,400 when I looked at my hair she finally after like an hour and a half she finally 59 00:06:07,400 --> 00:06:12,760 showed me the mirror. And I looked at it and I was not happy. I was just like 60 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:21,000 absolutely like deeply saddened. Or you know how it gets when you get your 61 00:06:21,000 --> 00:06:25,120 haircut and then you look at yourself and it's not good. Like that that was the 62 00:06:25,120 --> 00:06:33,200 emotion I was feeling extremely like hurt. And then there was two reasons. Or 63 00:06:33,200 --> 00:06:36,760 there's one thing I did after that. I just said she was like oh yeah is this 64 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:42,520 good. And I was like yes it's good thank you. And then I paid and left. But the 65 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:46,120 reason why I did that was because one I didn't think that she could actually 66 00:06:46,120 --> 00:06:52,360 make it any better. And two I didn't want to bear sitting in that chair any 67 00:06:52,360 --> 00:06:58,080 longer. Because my emotions were on a like an all-time high. Not an all-time high. 68 00:06:58,080 --> 00:07:03,080 But my emotions were at their tipping point. And the reason why I tell you this 69 00:07:03,080 --> 00:07:07,360 story is because I learned about the the whispering of the Russell the morning 70 00:07:07,360 --> 00:07:12,040 stars is what it's called the Whispering of the Heart. I learned about that and I 71 00:07:12,040 --> 00:07:17,720 knew what it was. I was aware of it when it when it was happening. Yeah I still 72 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:24,520 didn't act. I still didn't listen to it. And that was a huge mistake and ever since 73 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:31,240 then. Like when I was at school after that I was like not bullied but people 74 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:37,320 kind of made fun of my haircut. And they like made it known that I made a 75 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:44,400 mistake getting haircut. And you know how that is. If if you have a haircut one 76 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:50,320 day and then it's a bad one. You go in public. Like especially with at school 77 00:07:50,320 --> 00:07:56,720 people are brutal. So ever since that I decided to actually listen to the Russell 78 00:07:56,720 --> 00:08:03,600 the morning stars. And the one thing is if you don't listen to the Russell the 79 00:08:03,600 --> 00:08:08,400 morning stars it's nearly always negative. Whereas if you listen to the Russell 80 00:08:08,400 --> 00:08:14,120 the morning stars it's nearly always neutral. Is what I come to learn. Because 81 00:08:14,120 --> 00:08:19,280 there's a few times that when I did listen to the Russell morning stars and I 82 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:25,200 decided to not act or do act or whatever the case may be. I decided to listen to 83 00:08:25,200 --> 00:08:33,760 my heart and as a result the like nothing happened. Which one could see that as 84 00:08:33,760 --> 00:08:39,920 like not even being valuable. But me doing that that negative it was probably 85 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:44,480 saving me from an even worse thing. Like going back to the situation where I was 86 00:08:44,480 --> 00:08:50,200 leaning against that tree right outside of the haircut place. If I simply just 87 00:08:50,200 --> 00:08:54,080 walked away it would just been a neutral situation. Nothing bad would have 88 00:08:54,080 --> 00:09:00,680 happened. I would have just gone on to school just like that. But I decided to 89 00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:04,440 ignore the Russell morning stars so something bad happened and it affected 90 00:09:04,440 --> 00:09:09,800 me for like three four months in the future once. And so my hair finally grew 91 00:09:09,800 --> 00:09:16,040 back. And ever since that I got one more haircut from that point and I had a 92 00:09:16,040 --> 00:09:23,680 similar experience but I didn't. I actually had a better haircut. But there's 93 00:09:23,680 --> 00:09:29,600 this one dude that I respected who said you should have grown it all out. Like you 94 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:33,840 should have grown it out. So ever since that I decided to grow it out just like 95 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:39,760 how it is now. And I am kind of due for a haircut. Like I've heard that but I'm 96 00:09:39,760 --> 00:09:43,920 kind of to be honest with you guys I'm afraid. Like I'm fearful of getting a 97 00:09:43,920 --> 00:09:47,800 haircut because I don't want to go back to great clips because I've never had a 98 00:09:47,800 --> 00:09:54,600 like good experience there. And I'm also I don't know where else to go because 99 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:59,840 the last time I had a haircut the bad one I just told you about that was at 100 00:09:59,840 --> 00:10:04,760 great clips. But another time I had a haircut in the beginning of junior year 101 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:12,160 right when I had this amazing hairstyle that I actually liked to get rid of 102 00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:20,200 this hairstyle I went to this one barber shop and it was terrible. Like the dude 103 00:10:20,200 --> 00:10:24,520 was late I had a similar experience and it was the worst. It was a terrible 104 00:10:24,520 --> 00:10:31,560 haircut as well. So I'm I'm literally afraid to get a haircut. But the reason 105 00:10:31,560 --> 00:10:38,400 I'm telling you all this is because I want to just nail in how important it 106 00:10:38,400 --> 00:10:44,840 is to listen to the heart. Your heart knows everything. And I've over the past 107 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:51,560 couple weeks in my humanities class we get 20 minutes on Mondays and 20 minutes 108 00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:57,680 on Fridays to read independent reading book. And so I didn't want to read my 109 00:10:57,680 --> 00:11:01,200 personal books because when we first started I was reading Transurfing and I 110 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,920 didn't want to have to bring that to school and I didn't want to bring it 111 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:10,680 because I wanted to focus on it. And it's kind of hard to focus and like study it 112 00:11:10,680 --> 00:11:17,960 at school. But so I chose to read the Alchemist which was on my list but I 113 00:11:17,960 --> 00:11:23,720 what I had no intention on actually getting to it any time soon. So it was a 114 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:30,400 perfect opportunity to read the Alchemist. And the Alchemist is basically a I 115 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:37,400 don't know like the vocab words for books but I think it's a novel. It's 116 00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:43,240 basically like a story about a boy who pursues his personal legend. It's 117 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:49,040 basically his life purpose. So he pursues that and it's just his journey, his 118 00:11:49,040 --> 00:11:54,280 adventure along the way. And I'm very glad that I read it because I read it. I 119 00:11:54,280 --> 00:12:00,760 just finished it today and I've been reading it pretty slowly over the past 120 00:12:00,760 --> 00:12:07,080 two months actually ever since like school started I've been reading it. And 121 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:15,240 it's because I only have like 20 minutes on Mondays and Fridays and a lot of the 122 00:12:15,240 --> 00:12:20,320 times like it gets we don't get it. Like for example today we didn't have any 123 00:12:20,320 --> 00:12:27,360 reading time because we're watching a movie instead. So there's a lot of time 124 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:32,400 but none of this matters. But the moral of the story is I read the Alchemist and 125 00:12:32,400 --> 00:12:40,840 I'm very glad I did because I saw a lot of transfer from principles in it. And I 126 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:46,360 I'm glad that I read it after reading Transurfing two times so that I can 127 00:12:46,360 --> 00:12:49,960 actually understand the wisdom and see the wisdom there. Because if I were to 128 00:12:49,960 --> 00:12:54,800 have just read it before Transurfing then I wouldn't have seen the wisdom in it 129 00:12:54,800 --> 00:12:59,240 and I wouldn't have thought anything special of it. But since I read it 130 00:12:59,240 --> 00:13:05,000 after learning about Transurfing and studying it I learned so much and I 131 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:11,440 like got a chance to actually apply my knowledge kind of. There was many parts 132 00:13:11,440 --> 00:13:20,280 for example there was one part where I'm blanking on now but there's a oh yeah 133 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:25,400 so there's one part where he has to cross the desert and pretty much he's 134 00:13:25,400 --> 00:13:32,240 crossing the desert and he talks to this person and he said and I'm trying not to 135 00:13:32,240 --> 00:13:38,280 like spoil anything so he talks to this guy who's kind of like his guide at that 136 00:13:38,280 --> 00:13:45,640 stage of his journey and he is basically he basically says his guide says 137 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:51,320 listen to your heart so the boy the main character literally just listens to his 138 00:13:51,320 --> 00:13:55,560 heart for hours and he becomes like fluent in the language of the heart and 139 00:13:55,560 --> 00:14:01,440 he like gets the point where he can speak to the heart and listen to it all 140 00:14:01,440 --> 00:14:09,400 day long and just the way he spoke just really I really liked it and there's 141 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:16,480 one one point where he was able to this is a spoiler so if you plan on reading 142 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:22,280 it then you should probably skip ahead so there's one point where he had to turn 143 00:14:22,280 --> 00:14:29,880 into the wind like literally turn into the wind and then he was talking he was 144 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:34,480 basically sitting on top of a he was in the desert sitting on top of like this 145 00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:41,600 rock and he was talking to the wind or no he was talking to the desert through 146 00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:47,320 the language of the world which is like the the heart I think and then the desert 147 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,480 told him to talk to the wind and then he talked to the wind and then the wind 148 00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:59,120 told him to talk to the Sun and then the Sun told him to talk to the writer 149 00:14:59,120 --> 00:15:04,360 which is like the hand the hand that wrote that wrote it all so basically 150 00:15:04,360 --> 00:15:10,840 God he told him the Sun told him to talk to God and then what he realizes that he 151 00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:16,600 became fluent in the language of the world and then the language or the sorry 152 00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:21,800 this stuff is fresh in my mind so I don't really I'm not I'm not extremely 153 00:15:21,800 --> 00:15:28,480 well-versed in this yet but he basically found out that the soul of the world is 154 00:15:28,480 --> 00:15:35,280 a part of the soul of God and that he is a part of God or he is God 155 00:15:35,280 --> 00:15:40,600 essentially he he found out that he is God and he is capable of performing 156 00:15:40,600 --> 00:15:47,880 miracles so then he was able to actually turn into the wind and that's what he did 157 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:53,560 he turned into the wind and then like flew over to a different part of like 158 00:15:53,560 --> 00:16:02,040 the desert and then manifest back into his physical body but he basically learned 159 00:16:02,040 --> 00:16:08,920 how to listen to the heart and that he spent like hours days months just 160 00:16:08,920 --> 00:16:14,040 listening to the heart because he was walking through the desert in solid not 161 00:16:14,040 --> 00:16:17,880 in solitude because he had his guide with him but there was a long stretches where 162 00:16:17,880 --> 00:16:23,840 they were not talking at all and he would just sit in the silence listening to his 163 00:16:23,840 --> 00:16:30,840 heart speak all day long and that's really something that made me think 164 00:16:30,840 --> 00:16:36,200 because I learned about Transurfing and I don't really listen to my heart that 165 00:16:36,200 --> 00:16:44,520 often I just have become more kind of sensitive to inner tension for example 166 00:16:44,520 --> 00:16:53,760 one huge lesson that I learned today let me get some context over the past so I 167 00:16:53,760 --> 00:16:59,680 met my friend Franklin and we were kind of like on our own paths we're and then 168 00:16:59,680 --> 00:17:04,640 when we met we kind of started to like converge our paths and then our paths 169 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:09,840 basically became one for quite some time a few weeks or months and we were 170 00:17:09,840 --> 00:17:15,440 basically like doing the same exact things for those weeks and months so our 171 00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:23,240 path was the same and then we started to kind of split ways a little bit and I 172 00:17:23,240 --> 00:17:28,200 didn't notice this I wasn't conscious of this but I was kind of trying to like 173 00:17:28,200 --> 00:17:34,960 control like in Transurfing there's a term like your grip of control I was 174 00:17:34,960 --> 00:17:39,760 basically trying to like control the situation and try and keep him on my 175 00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:44,320 path which was not good obviously because I was having a lot of inner 176 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:50,800 tension and I was really tense especially over the past week around him and 177 00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,720 then I became conscious of this literally like yesterday and then I talked 178 00:17:55,720 --> 00:18:02,960 to him about it and it made sense so I like talked about it and then instantly 179 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:08,720 released the burden and then I said it's because I'm trying to like control you 180 00:18:08,720 --> 00:18:12,560 I'm not allowing you to be you and then he said that makes a lot of sense because 181 00:18:12,560 --> 00:18:17,240 he was feeling something similar I don't know to what extent but doesn't really 182 00:18:17,240 --> 00:18:22,520 matter and I realized that I have to let him go his own path and allow myself to 183 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:28,000 go my own path and that's one extremely valuable thing that I learned about 184 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:34,120 listening to my heart because I figured that out by listening to my heart and 185 00:18:34,120 --> 00:18:40,680 it's helped tremendously because now we're both kind of splitting paths and 186 00:18:40,680 --> 00:18:48,680 going our own ways which is fine like everyone has their own path and now I'm 187 00:18:48,680 --> 00:18:53,000 conscious of not controlling the situation just releasing the grip and 188 00:18:53,000 --> 00:18:57,180 allowing him to be him and allowing myself to be myself that's a 189 00:18:57,180 --> 00:19:03,000 transurfing principle actually allow allow yourself or be yourself and allow 190 00:19:03,000 --> 00:19:08,100 others to do the same and that's what I was feeling and doing and then I became 191 00:19:08,100 --> 00:19:14,920 conscious of it and now I'm doing that so that's that's kind of what a huge 192 00:19:14,920 --> 00:19:22,640 lesson that I learned today but I'm really okay so I just finished the 193 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:29,760 alchemist and now I'm gonna be I am okay so today is Friday and over the next 194 00:19:29,760 --> 00:19:35,320 couple days I'm gonna be reading a lot because I have a three-day weekend so 195 00:19:35,320 --> 00:19:41,760 tomorrow Sunday and Monday I have no school and this is another thing I want 196 00:19:41,760 --> 00:19:48,160 to talk about school I was talking with my with my other friend today about 197 00:19:48,160 --> 00:19:54,400 he's one year younger than me so he's a junior and he's basically kind of in a 198 00:19:54,400 --> 00:19:59,740 situation we're both in a situation where we're realizing that school is like a 199 00:19:59,740 --> 00:20:05,360 lie and this is something that I think I'm starting to uncover I wrote one 200 00:20:05,360 --> 00:20:12,520 thing that I realized I was reading the 10x this easier than 2x and one thing 201 00:20:12,520 --> 00:20:19,640 that you need to one habit that he had or one like exercise he had us do in that 202 00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:29,040 book is to write down all of your past 10x achievements and then also write down 203 00:20:29,040 --> 00:20:34,600 things that you want and so I wrote down my past 10x achievements five of them 204 00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:40,600 and then I also wrote down something that I want and I wrote down a few things 205 00:20:40,600 --> 00:20:45,720 that I wanted and this was last night when I wrote this down but the 10x I 206 00:20:45,720 --> 00:20:50,680 wrote down this morning but last night wrote down the things I wanted which one 207 00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:54,920 of the things I wanted was to discover the truth and this is because I have been 208 00:20:54,920 --> 00:21:01,800 on this quest for discovering the truth ever since I ever since that one day 209 00:21:01,800 --> 00:21:06,240 then I realized that I was focusing on my physical body for self-improvement but 210 00:21:06,240 --> 00:21:11,760 not my like mental ever since that day I was on a quest to discover the truth 211 00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:18,280 now unknowingly until just like recently a month ago maybe so for the past like 212 00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:24,920 seven months a little maybe over seven months I've been on a quest to discover 213 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:32,560 the truth and it's been a slow process but I was extremely I'm extremely lucky 214 00:21:32,560 --> 00:21:43,720 because I've been on the right path like in the most beautiful world's website 215 00:21:43,720 --> 00:21:49,360 there's a reading list and in that list he are in like the blog article he says 216 00:21:49,360 --> 00:21:55,080 that you can spend 40 years reading 40,000 books and still not get anything 217 00:21:55,080 --> 00:22:00,120 of it and this reading list that he has the ultimate reading list for human 218 00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:06,600 beings on that website is a straight cut to the chase straight to conscious 219 00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:16,680 awakening like revolution inducing reading list and so that's like the 220 00:22:16,680 --> 00:22:20,240 foundation so the first book he said to start it with is reality 221 00:22:20,240 --> 00:22:24,800 Transurfing so for the entire journey that I was trying to discover the truth 222 00:22:24,800 --> 00:22:29,160 I was reading reality Transurfing so I was already building my foundation which 223 00:22:29,160 --> 00:22:33,360 is huge because I didn't even realize when I started reading Transurfing and 224 00:22:33,360 --> 00:22:40,440 even when I like for the past couple months like until one month ago when I 225 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,920 learned about this website I didn't realize that I was trying to discover 226 00:22:43,920 --> 00:22:49,360 any truth but I was on the path to discovering the truth whether I knew 227 00:22:49,360 --> 00:22:55,680 it or not and so when I read this article the most beautiful world the 228 00:22:55,680 --> 00:22:59,560 ultimate reading list for human beings the reading list when I read this I 229 00:22:59,560 --> 00:23:04,600 realized that I need to discover the truth and I'm sorry I'm saying discover 230 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:11,040 the truth a lot but it's important so when I wrote down last night in my one 231 00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:18,680 teen like things that I want I wanted to discover the truth and finally after a 232 00:23:18,680 --> 00:23:25,960 few like after a month of discovering these new books you know over the next 233 00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:30,280 couple days I'm going to be starting them and I'm gonna be reading a lot 234 00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:34,920 because I want to start them quick I want to start them as soon as possible 235 00:23:34,920 --> 00:23:39,560 because they all came except for Toofty the priestess which by the way is not 236 00:23:39,560 --> 00:23:42,880 even on the reading list but I want to read that I want to throw in a 237 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:47,400 Transurfing book because that's the next book that Vanem's on wrote after 238 00:23:47,400 --> 00:23:52,960 reality Transurfing and I want to maintain like my knowledge and build 239 00:23:52,960 --> 00:24:00,560 more knowledge and so over the next couple days over the weekend I'm gonna 240 00:24:00,560 --> 00:24:06,040 be spending like all day locked into my room finishing 10x's easier than 2x and 241 00:24:06,040 --> 00:24:11,360 then create don't capture and I'm gonna dive into these books because they are 242 00:24:11,360 --> 00:24:17,680 straight to conscious awakening discover the truth and the guy who compiled 243 00:24:17,680 --> 00:24:25,880 the reading list Jean Pascal Riemann actually wrote a book himself and as you 244 00:24:25,880 --> 00:24:30,400 guys heard over the past couple days as well as today I have been talking about 245 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:34,880 how school is a lie and I want to drop out even though I have like two months 246 00:24:34,880 --> 00:24:44,960 until I graduate and these books basically I got I was under the 247 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:50,600 impression I got the impression that he basically led me to believe that the 248 00:24:50,600 --> 00:24:57,680 reading lists bit kind of made him drop out of school and pursue his dreams in 249 00:24:57,680 --> 00:25:04,200 his life and then he wrote a book called Dancing After the Music Stops and 250 00:25:04,200 --> 00:25:08,040 you know how on the back cover there's kind of like a summary or description of 251 00:25:08,040 --> 00:25:13,240 the book on the back cover of Dancing After the Music Stops he says this book 252 00:25:13,240 --> 00:25:17,000 is the type of book that will make you want to drop out of school and chase 253 00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:24,600 your dreams or start your life so if I'm already on the fence I don't know if 254 00:25:24,600 --> 00:25:27,720 it'll be a good thing or a bad thing to read these books but I'm gonna go 255 00:25:27,720 --> 00:25:34,520 straight in because I am red pill all the way red pill this is one of the biggest 256 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:40,240 lessons that I learned when I started reading Transurfing when I I started 257 00:25:40,240 --> 00:25:45,600 reading Transurfing I couldn't really handle it not even a lot I was pacing 258 00:25:45,600 --> 00:25:50,600 my the hallway in my house like this with my hands on my head just like 259 00:25:50,600 --> 00:26:04,800 stressed out because excuse me let me get some water have hiccups I was walking 260 00:26:04,800 --> 00:26:11,720 around my house like stressed out because no one else around me knew about 261 00:26:11,720 --> 00:26:20,680 this stuff everyone else was still blue pill they're still kind of under the dream 262 00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:25,280 they're like heavily sedated by the pendulum still and they they don't even 263 00:26:25,280 --> 00:26:29,280 know anything about this stuff and if I were to talk to them about it then they 264 00:26:29,280 --> 00:26:35,120 would just reject everything so I'm over here a 17 year old high school student 265 00:26:35,120 --> 00:26:41,600 struggling away trying to figure out like what is going on in the life because 266 00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:46,920 the first couple chapters of Transurfing destroyed like absolutely shattered my 267 00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:53,240 worldview and basically discredited every single thing that I came to believe 268 00:26:53,240 --> 00:26:59,360 is true and said that it's not how it seems so my entire life was flipped 269 00:26:59,360 --> 00:27:03,880 upside down when I started reading that and I couldn't handle it so I stopped 270 00:27:03,880 --> 00:27:09,480 reading it and then it wasn't until I met Franklin my friend that I talked about 271 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:15,520 a lot and we started rereading we or we started reading it again like it wasn't 272 00:27:15,520 --> 00:27:19,600 until I had a companion to read it to so I could have someone to confide in and 273 00:27:19,600 --> 00:27:25,800 so I could get through this moment or this like phase of my life get through 274 00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:32,280 the red pill phase with someone else so that's why I was able to do that because 275 00:27:32,280 --> 00:27:37,840 but I came to realize that the red pill even though I was like it was too 276 00:27:37,840 --> 00:27:41,800 overwhelmed to handle it I probably would have gotten back to Transurfing 277 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:46,640 eventually I don't know how long it would have taken but I probably would 278 00:27:46,640 --> 00:27:52,520 have gotten back to it and just pushed through on my own but I realized that the 279 00:27:52,520 --> 00:27:58,120 red pill is so important because the red pill is the truth and it's a hard pill 280 00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:05,520 to swallow it's a hard truth but not everyone wants to take it but those who 281 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:13,360 take it are way better off than those who don't and that's why even though I may 282 00:28:13,360 --> 00:28:19,000 regret learning about all this stuff because I have two months left and it 283 00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:24,440 may be like torturous being at school knowing all this knowledge for two months 284 00:28:24,440 --> 00:28:30,840 I think it'll be worth it because honestly knowledge opens up doorways 285 00:28:30,840 --> 00:28:36,880 I'm a firm believer in this because when I started reading Transurfing all of 286 00:28:36,880 --> 00:28:40,080 like the majority of my doors in my life were closed because I didn't even know 287 00:28:40,080 --> 00:28:45,480 they existed so a door that's open but you don't know exists is closed to you 288 00:28:45,480 --> 00:28:52,760 because you don't even know it exists so once I started learning and started like 289 00:28:52,760 --> 00:28:58,200 for example the first book that I read Oxygen Advantage taught me to nose 290 00:28:58,200 --> 00:29:04,040 breathe now nose breathing was a was an open door but I didn't know it existed 291 00:29:04,040 --> 00:29:07,000 like I knew that you could breathe through your nose but I didn't see the 292 00:29:07,000 --> 00:29:12,200 benefits of it until I learned the knowledge of how valuable nose breathing 293 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:16,200 is and then it became a visible door that was open and I started to breathe 294 00:29:16,200 --> 00:29:22,520 through my nose and then my life improved because of it and all the other 295 00:29:22,520 --> 00:29:26,880 things imagine the the world of opportunities like our world is inf... 296 00:29:26,880 --> 00:29:31,640 like not infinite but our world has so like infinite different possibilities 297 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:37,960 there are so many different things that you don't even know exists in this world 298 00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:45,000 like I've just been living in this small little town for my entire life and yes 299 00:29:45,000 --> 00:29:51,840 I've traveled but there's so much more to this world than like this tiny little 300 00:29:51,840 --> 00:30:02,360 two square mile town that I'm living in so imagine all of the open doors that 301 00:30:02,360 --> 00:30:08,400 are just hidden from you and reading I read in the most beautiful world this 302 00:30:08,400 --> 00:30:14,480 one quote that said like you can just unlock the truth for reading and then 303 00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:22,640 it's like it knowledge is the enemy to tyranny or something like that pretty 304 00:30:22,640 --> 00:30:27,200 much knowledge is power and I've heard this all my life knowledge is power 305 00:30:27,200 --> 00:30:31,880 knowledge is power yeah whatever never thought anything of it until I started 306 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:38,320 reading the right books yes oxygen advantage good book it's not really 307 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:44,680 that powerful knowledge to know yes how do okay how to win friends and influence 308 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:51,240 others is a powerful knowledge to know but transurfing is like the most 309 00:30:51,240 --> 00:30:54,800 powerful knowledge that I've ever had the most powerful knowledge that I've ever 310 00:30:54,800 --> 00:31:02,960 like that book in hindsight looking looking at like my past that is the 311 00:31:02,960 --> 00:31:08,880 moment when I realized that knowledge is power because I've been able to achieve 312 00:31:08,880 --> 00:31:15,880 one thing with transurfing so far go to funnel hacking life I was able to fly 313 00:31:15,880 --> 00:31:22,400 across the country as a high school student alone with just my friend fly 314 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:29,240 across the country and listen from great world-class speakers about business 315 00:31:29,240 --> 00:31:34,240 and entrepreneurship while I'm still in high school I was able to do that all by 316 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:42,520 myself with my friend we were both all by ourselves I was able to go to a hotel 317 00:31:42,520 --> 00:31:51,120 and this is because I visualized the song like I visualize all of this stuff and 318 00:31:51,120 --> 00:31:55,880 transurfing there's there is a visualization is a part of transurfing 319 00:31:55,880 --> 00:32:03,400 and so there's one thing I'm visualizing right now and it's me surfing the waves 320 00:32:03,400 --> 00:32:11,200 with a black surfboard that has in gold letters 2 comma club X written on it 321 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:17,840 that's what I'm visualizing right now and that symbolizes me surfing in Hawaii 322 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:23,680 free financially free because I'm in the 2 comma club X which basically means I 323 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:29,160 made 10 million dollars a year that's my goal and right now I have a hundred 324 00:32:29,160 --> 00:32:33,080 percent success rate for the things I visualized actually that's not sure I 325 00:32:33,080 --> 00:32:38,320 visualize the house one time for a few weeks but I decided against it because 326 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:42,440 I didn't really want it it was just kind of a placeholder so I could feel like I 327 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,960 was being productive but quickly I transitioned that to 328 00:32:47,960 --> 00:32:53,840 fun hacking live and then I've achieved fun hacking live now I'm visualizing 329 00:32:53,840 --> 00:32:59,240 surfing and I will achieve that as well because it's inevitable as long as I 330 00:32:59,240 --> 00:33:06,120 maintain my route and maintain visualizing it then I'll achieve it 331 00:33:06,120 --> 00:33:13,840 like it's just no other choice but this is extremely important because this 332 00:33:13,840 --> 00:33:19,840 allowed me to start thinking big reality trans surfing allowed me to start 333 00:33:19,840 --> 00:33:25,600 thinking big like before I thought that I was gonna have to be miserable with 334 00:33:25,600 --> 00:33:32,120 the rest of my life working a career after being in college after being a 335 00:33:32,120 --> 00:33:36,440 college educated kid I thought that I was gonna have to follow the traditional 336 00:33:36,440 --> 00:33:42,800 path and then once I read unscripted by MJ DeMarco I realized no I'm throwing 337 00:33:42,800 --> 00:33:47,400 all that away get rid of college I'm not doing that that radically shifted 338 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:52,440 everything but I didn't know what to do so then I read dot com secrets expert 339 00:33:52,440 --> 00:33:59,400 secrets traffic secrets now I know what to do now I'm taking action and then I 340 00:33:59,400 --> 00:34:09,280 read trans surfing two times and that book absolutely destroyed my entire life 341 00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:18,360 that didn't destroy my life but it ripped everything I knew apart in my mind 342 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:26,360 because now I realize that this my whole life I was placed in this life right I 343 00:34:26,360 --> 00:34:33,200 was placed here but I'm still here because my thoughts are confirming it my 344 00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:41,640 thoughts are continually producing it like pretty much the way the world works 345 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:46,760 is we're all placed in random spots like you could be placed in a poor house 346 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:51,280 middle-class house upper-class house extremely wealthy house you could be 347 00:34:51,280 --> 00:35:03,000 placed anywhere and your initial like starting area yes that matters but only 348 00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:11,480 to the extent that it kind of creates the first starting point and as humans we 349 00:35:11,480 --> 00:35:18,520 have a tendency to follow this feedback loop which this feedback loop is we 350 00:35:18,520 --> 00:35:23,880 basically look at look at our world and then express our relationship to it and 351 00:35:23,880 --> 00:35:29,320 then the world express reflects that relationship back into reality and then 352 00:35:29,320 --> 00:35:33,400 we look at that new reality and then we express and we just repeat and now we're 353 00:35:33,400 --> 00:35:39,760 in a loop so that's our tendency so that's why when everyone is placed in 354 00:35:39,760 --> 00:35:43,840 their initial spots they're usually they usually tend to stay in that initial 355 00:35:43,840 --> 00:35:49,520 spot their whole life because they're in this loop this feedback loop and it's 356 00:35:49,520 --> 00:35:55,480 endless unless you break the cycle so what you do is you're placed in the 357 00:35:55,480 --> 00:36:00,360 world right now and placed in the middle class and my whole life I was in this 358 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:05,560 loop where this is like my life this is my world this is basically my lot in 359 00:36:05,560 --> 00:36:11,560 life this how it's gonna be for the rest of my life and then I started to 360 00:36:11,560 --> 00:36:16,960 destroy that loop I started to stop it and reverse it now what I do is I 361 00:36:16,960 --> 00:36:22,280 express my relationship to the world so now I could constantly now I know to 362 00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:28,720 constantly consciously choose my relationship to the world so I express 363 00:36:28,720 --> 00:36:34,040 positively or I express surfing like that's my goal so I my relationship to 364 00:36:34,040 --> 00:36:37,880 the world is that the world takes care of everything and it helps me move 365 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:43,280 towards my goal in the most quickest way possible and everything that happens 366 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:48,080 leads towards my goal and everything happens that everything that happens to 367 00:36:48,080 --> 00:36:56,440 me happens for my goal basically so now first I express my relationship then 368 00:36:56,440 --> 00:37:03,720 the world since the mirror it reflects it back so now that is reality but there's 369 00:37:03,720 --> 00:37:07,800 a delay between the relationship being expressed and it being reflected the 370 00:37:07,800 --> 00:37:14,160 mirror has a delay so now I have to just hold maintain my relationship and hold 371 00:37:14,160 --> 00:37:23,560 it steady and then once it becomes reality then I can like be in that new 372 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:31,280 feedback loop because previously right like before my loop was kind of keeping 373 00:37:31,280 --> 00:37:38,440 me stuck in this place of middle class but once I reverse the loop then I can 374 00:37:38,440 --> 00:37:45,000 reverse it back and kind of go back to how it was before except now the loop 375 00:37:45,000 --> 00:37:49,200 will be from a different starting point and now I'll be in a much better 376 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:55,080 position so now it'll kind of just keep going forward in this new spot of being 377 00:37:55,080 --> 00:38:01,320 ten million dollars a year surfing living in Hawaii that's that's that's 378 00:38:01,320 --> 00:38:06,000 basically how the world works and that's all of this stuff I learned because I 379 00:38:06,000 --> 00:38:12,320 read this 750 page long book two times and I'm gonna I plan on reading again and 380 00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:17,840 the guy who wrote that book which is five books combined by the way guy who 381 00:38:17,840 --> 00:38:23,680 wrote that book Vadam's own he also wrote a few other books Toofty the 382 00:38:23,680 --> 00:38:31,160 Priestess it fat Priestess it fat I think it's called those two books are kind of 383 00:38:31,160 --> 00:38:38,000 like prequels and sequels to each other and then there's one more which is like 384 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:43,920 78 days of Transurfing which I plan on reading in the future and then there's 385 00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:47,240 another which is like Transurfing in Your Pocket which is just like quotes 386 00:38:47,240 --> 00:38:52,600 compiled from the books which I will read again or not again but I will read in 387 00:38:52,600 --> 00:39:00,440 the future so I'm gonna be reading all of his books but like this worldview is 388 00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:05,680 extremely important because it opened up so much doors now the first seven books 389 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:10,160 like I want to go back to this reading list like I said knowledge is power and 390 00:39:10,160 --> 00:39:16,240 knowledge opens up new doors that or reveals doors that were always open that 391 00:39:16,240 --> 00:39:23,400 you didn't realize were open so I got seven new books in from the reading 392 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:28,800 list one of them is not which is Toofty but six new books from the reading list 393 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:37,800 and they are Journeys out of Bodies which is by Robert Monroe who is who wrote a 394 00:39:37,800 --> 00:39:43,000 book on out of body experiences which is gonna be extremely beneficial because 395 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:48,920 right now I'm practicing his meditations using the Hemi-Sync so I'm 396 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:54,960 practicing the Gateway experience with Hemi-Sync and I'm gonna be reading his 397 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:59,960 book so that's that and then I actually have a feeling that that will make me a 398 00:39:59,960 --> 00:40:05,360 lot more inspired to go harder on this meditation because lately I've I've been 399 00:40:05,360 --> 00:40:09,720 literally falling asleep during the meditations and I thought it was because 400 00:40:09,720 --> 00:40:17,440 of my sleep schedule was messed up it may still be that but probably because I'm 401 00:40:17,440 --> 00:40:26,320 still trying to like catch up but that's that's where I'm at with that so I 402 00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:31,800 haven't really been progressing forward in the meditations but this book is good 403 00:40:31,800 --> 00:40:37,440 and then the other book the next book Die Wise and Come of Age which are both 404 00:40:37,440 --> 00:40:47,400 by the one author I forgot his name but both of those books are Gene Pasco 405 00:40:47,400 --> 00:40:52,800 Riemann's like number one and number four favorite books of all time and he 406 00:40:52,800 --> 00:40:56,960 said that these are the books that he gives out as a gift most like Die Wise 407 00:40:56,960 --> 00:41:04,800 is his most given gift and I other than that I don't know anything about it so 408 00:41:04,800 --> 00:41:09,640 and I've never heard of it but I'm excited for that and I don't know what 409 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:13,120 benefit I'll come out of it but I'll definitely be telling you guys as I 410 00:41:13,120 --> 00:41:19,960 learn it more and then Ascent on Humanity or Ascent of Humanity I forgot 411 00:41:19,960 --> 00:41:30,520 what it was but that's by Eisenstein I forgot his first name but he I read about 412 00:41:30,520 --> 00:41:35,440 it on his back like you know how sometimes on books the back is either a 413 00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:41,680 description of the book or it's like praise and it's like reviews on Ascent 414 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:50,000 of Humanity it's reviews and one of the reviews was he his work goes stands along 415 00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:57,640 with like the greats of our time like his book is legendary and then on Gene 416 00:41:57,640 --> 00:42:02,480 Pasco Riemann's website most beautiful world he actually said that this book is 417 00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:06,320 lays out the foundation to how the world really works and it lays out the 418 00:42:06,320 --> 00:42:11,000 foundation to the truth so I'm excited for that because I don't even know what 419 00:42:11,000 --> 00:42:14,560 to expect I don't know how the world works I think I know how the world works 420 00:42:14,560 --> 00:42:19,200 but after reading Transurfing I know that that is exactly what the 421 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:25,800 pendulums code into my mind I know exactly what I'm taught to know so I 422 00:42:25,800 --> 00:42:31,400 think I know how the world works but I don't because pendulums don't gain any 423 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:36,600 benefit from me going my own way and me knowing the truth but these books will 424 00:42:36,600 --> 00:42:44,600 allow me to learn the truth and then all right so the Daiwis come of age journey 425 00:42:44,600 --> 00:42:50,760 out of body Ascent of Humanity and then the Egypt code I thought that it was I 426 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:56,440 read the back which on this book is a description of the book and it's pretty 427 00:42:56,440 --> 00:43:03,880 much not about how just what I got off the back I'm I think that it's not about 428 00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:09,960 how the pyramids the Egyptian pyramids were aligned with the stars not about 429 00:43:09,960 --> 00:43:16,920 how but why and then I also kind of read some reviews a little while back and 430 00:43:16,920 --> 00:43:20,000 they were saying that it's like a spiritual and it's like a groundbreaking 431 00:43:20,000 --> 00:43:26,720 breaking work on Egyptology and kind of like spirituality so I have no idea how 432 00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:31,680 that's gonna come like how that's gonna come together don't know much about it 433 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:39,720 but that's the Egypt code so then I got Toofty which is book written by 434 00:43:39,720 --> 00:43:45,800 Valamzon it's about reality Transurfing and my friend listened to like the 435 00:43:45,800 --> 00:43:51,840 beginning of the audiobook of it and he said that it's basically about how 436 00:43:51,840 --> 00:43:56,080 Valamzon like basically tells you exactly what to do exactly what he would do if 437 00:43:56,080 --> 00:44:04,200 he were to go like start from scratch and what he would do on like for applying 438 00:44:04,200 --> 00:44:11,240 the prince Transurfing principles and then the last one what is it so we've 439 00:44:11,240 --> 00:44:19,720 got come of age die wise a son of humanity journey out of bodies Toofty 440 00:44:19,720 --> 00:44:28,200 the Egypt code there's one oh dancing after the music stops this book was 441 00:44:28,200 --> 00:44:34,080 written by Gene Pascal Rehman and who's the author of the most beautiful world 442 00:44:34,080 --> 00:44:39,960 website and compiled the reading list of what I'm reading and dancing after the 443 00:44:39,960 --> 00:44:44,440 music stops is not necessarily on the reading list but he like mentioned it in 444 00:44:44,440 --> 00:44:49,440 that article and he said it's a compilation of the past three years of 445 00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:53,880 his life reading all the books on the reading list as well as his trips 446 00:44:53,880 --> 00:44:59,800 throughout the like trips around the world so I think that this book will be 447 00:44:59,800 --> 00:45:05,480 an excellent start to this reading list I'm gonna be reading all seven at the 448 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:09,640 same time using a reading method of read one book until I lose focus then the 449 00:45:09,640 --> 00:45:15,920 next then the next interspersed with push-ups and just repeat and cycle 450 00:45:15,920 --> 00:45:21,920 through them all and this book will if this is a compilation of all the books 451 00:45:21,920 --> 00:45:29,520 I feel like it'll be an excellent book to begin with so like I said I was talking 452 00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:35,600 to my friend the one that is one year younger than me today about because he 453 00:45:35,600 --> 00:45:41,520 wanted to hear about like what's going on with my life and just get some updates 454 00:45:41,520 --> 00:45:48,360 because I haven't seen him in a few weeks and he is reading Transurfing he's like 455 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:52,880 in the beginning of Transurfing and he's starting to uncover the truth as well 456 00:45:52,880 --> 00:45:58,520 and we're talking like we're just sitting in the hallway but people passing by and 457 00:45:58,520 --> 00:46:03,360 we're like I just said like schools a lot and he's like I know like I don't 458 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:08,840 like sitting here doing something that I know I'm not like I know it's not helping 459 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:17,960 me and pretty much all my life I had the feeling that schools a lie like I had 460 00:46:17,960 --> 00:46:22,880 the feeling that I knew that there was more and I knew that schools a waste of 461 00:46:22,880 --> 00:46:29,120 time but it wasn't till I started reading and reading the right books until I 462 00:46:29,120 --> 00:46:35,840 realized that yeah this is terrible so that's why I'm really I'm just really 463 00:46:35,840 --> 00:46:40,440 looking forward to this stuff today I'm gonna try and get like an hour maybe 464 00:46:40,440 --> 00:46:46,440 30 minutes of reading and then tomorrow I'm gonna spend like all day reading 10x 465 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:53,360 because I want to finish that now to talk about yesterday yesterday's episode I 466 00:46:53,360 --> 00:47:01,320 was talking about how I am not focusing on quality for my podcast and I feel like 467 00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:06,200 that's especially evident over the past couple episodes like this is episode 79 468 00:47:06,200 --> 00:47:15,480 and ever since like 70 episode 74 was my best episode I've ever recorded in my 469 00:47:15,480 --> 00:47:25,360 opinion and ever since that I kind of was down which brings back up one point 470 00:47:25,360 --> 00:47:31,840 and I just I kind of forgot about it until just now I've had a lot of best 471 00:47:31,840 --> 00:47:38,200 episodes until I beat it so for example I'm pretty sure episode 20 or 21 was my 472 00:47:38,200 --> 00:47:43,480 best episode that I recorded at the time and then literally the next episode was 473 00:47:43,480 --> 00:47:48,160 the worst episode I've ever recorded and then that happened like that kind of 474 00:47:48,160 --> 00:47:53,640 pattern repeated over the following like weeks and months to where I kind of 475 00:47:53,640 --> 00:48:00,240 realized that it's kind of like a wave like I build up to where I get gradually 476 00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:04,960 better and better episodes until I reach a peak and that's my best episode I 477 00:48:04,960 --> 00:48:14,440 ever recorded and then I instantly plummet kind of like a wave and then I 478 00:48:18,120 --> 00:48:22,400 and now that's my lowest point and I start building up again and then I'm at 479 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:27,120 a peak but this next peak is higher than the last peak and then I instantly 480 00:48:27,120 --> 00:48:34,640 plummet but this time this like down part this low point is like the baseline is 481 00:48:34,640 --> 00:48:38,920 a little bit higher than the previous baseline so this is my first best up 482 00:48:38,920 --> 00:48:43,880 this is my first worst episode and then this is my second worst episode and then 483 00:48:43,880 --> 00:48:49,280 over the weeks it this baseline gets higher and higher and higher which is 484 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:53,280 why I feel like these past couple days have been my work like terrible episodes 485 00:48:53,280 --> 00:49:01,760 yet they're still better than like episode 5 or episode 26 or I don't even 486 00:49:01,760 --> 00:49:06,480 know but they're still better than those episodes because my baseline is higher 487 00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:11,040 because my skills developing so that's what I that's kind of my thought process 488 00:49:11,040 --> 00:49:20,600 between behind like focus on quantity for recording but in the 10x is easier 489 00:49:20,600 --> 00:49:26,280 than 2x you need to be focusing on quality because Mr. Beast focused so much 490 00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:32,200 on quality if one episode is bad or he thinks that it's not good he scraps it 491 00:49:32,200 --> 00:49:36,920 no matter how much money and time he's invested in it he scraps it because he's 492 00:49:36,920 --> 00:49:41,400 focused on quality and as a result he became the big biggest youtuber in the 493 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:47,920 world he's a billionaire like he knows he did not do that on accident did it on 494 00:49:47,920 --> 00:49:54,640 purpose and he knew exactly what he was doing and I'm kind of just focusing on 495 00:49:54,640 --> 00:49:58,800 quantity hoping that over time my baseline gets higher and higher and higher 496 00:49:58,800 --> 00:50:04,760 and then over time I'll be able to get better and better and better but I'm not 497 00:50:04,760 --> 00:50:10,040 sure how to improve my quality because I want to maintain this quantity because I 498 00:50:10,040 --> 00:50:16,040 definitely see the benefits in my life on this like I the amount of practice like 499 00:50:16,040 --> 00:50:26,720 this is episode 79 and so I've basically had like 75 plus hours practicing like 500 00:50:26,720 --> 00:50:33,680 maybe like I've had around 70 hours of practice probably podcasting and as a 501 00:50:33,680 --> 00:50:42,880 result I've had I've able to find my voice start to figure I've been practice 502 00:50:42,880 --> 00:50:49,360 my speaking like I'm able to speak a lot more fluidly like before I was I was 503 00:50:49,360 --> 00:50:53,680 re-listening to my first episodes I didn't even post and I sounded like a 504 00:50:53,680 --> 00:50:59,840 robot and I'm just so like that quantity of practice is extremely beneficial for 505 00:50:59,840 --> 00:51:07,040 me so but I want it to be beneficial for you guys which is why I fear that I have 506 00:51:07,040 --> 00:51:12,280 like long episodes that no one's even gonna listen to yet or they'll listen to 507 00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:17,060 the first like five minutes and then lose interest when it takes me like six 508 00:51:17,060 --> 00:51:23,840 minutes to get into the flow or it or I don't say like the best content until 509 00:51:23,840 --> 00:51:28,400 like 30 minutes in when I'm in the flow so that's kind of what I fear so I want 510 00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:33,360 to improve my quality to get people to listen and to actually make it so people 511 00:51:33,360 --> 00:51:38,200 want to stay the whole time because I know it's possible to maintain and out 512 00:51:38,200 --> 00:51:43,040 like an even in so I post hour-long episodes I used to listen to hour and a 513 00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:51,960 half long episodes like I listened to Diary of a CEO modern wisdom where are 514 00:51:51,960 --> 00:52:01,840 the other ones on purpose there's a I don't even know there's a few other but 515 00:52:01,840 --> 00:52:07,160 I listened to those and those were like hours hour and a half long episode an 516 00:52:07,160 --> 00:52:12,880 hour hour and a half like those were long episodes and I was like listening the 517 00:52:12,880 --> 00:52:18,360 whole time and even if one episode was kind of boring I was still able to I 518 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:22,520 still kind of pushed it through and I was able to I realized that yes there's 519 00:52:22,520 --> 00:52:29,560 gonna be there was gonna be like goods hidden gems in the middle or the end of 520 00:52:29,560 --> 00:52:34,320 this episode so I should stay the whole time so that's kind of but I gotta figure 521 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,560 out what like what they're doing that I'm not doing that will allow me to grow 522 00:52:38,560 --> 00:52:43,600 so maybe it's actually a good idea to go and listen to some of those episodes and 523 00:52:43,600 --> 00:52:52,360 see what they're doing maybe that's a good idea I'm not sure and yesterday I 524 00:52:52,360 --> 00:52:56,280 was like looking up right after the episode I was looking up like how to 525 00:52:56,280 --> 00:53:01,720 get better at podcasting there's one thing that I realized is that they said 526 00:53:01,720 --> 00:53:06,720 don't go into information overload mode which I think I do a lot to try and fill 527 00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:12,460 the time because I look back I look at the time there's like 53 minutes in so I 528 00:53:12,460 --> 00:53:16,080 look at how long I'm recording and I'm like oh there's like 30 minutes left I 529 00:53:16,080 --> 00:53:23,680 have to talk and talk and talk and fill the time but that gets you guys confused 530 00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:30,080 and then it also kind of like takes away from the main point so if I just say the 531 00:53:30,080 --> 00:53:35,560 main point then move on but the thing is I'm not sure if I'll be able to learn 532 00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:41,200 enough lessons throughout the day to just go boom boom boom boom and like go 533 00:53:41,200 --> 00:53:46,760 through point to point to point I don't know which is why I'm excited to get into 534 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:52,960 these books because as you guys could probably tell episode 74 was like the 535 00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:59,760 peak of the wave and it was right when I finished reading Transurfing and right 536 00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:04,400 when I learned about this 10x Azizah 2x so I was on the peak of my 537 00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:08,960 Transurfing knowledge and I was just beginning to learn about this new 538 00:54:08,960 --> 00:54:14,800 mindset that goes along with Transurfing and so that's how I prepared that I 539 00:54:14,800 --> 00:54:21,000 just came up with it out of the blue this metaphor of how life works like the 540 00:54:21,000 --> 00:54:26,600 foundation is your worldview and then the castle or the house or the shack that 541 00:54:26,600 --> 00:54:31,280 you build on top that foundation is like the strategies and then the 542 00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:37,640 decoration is the tactics and in hindsight maybe that's not how life works 543 00:54:37,640 --> 00:54:43,120 but maybe that's like the list of priorities you should focus on maybe 544 00:54:43,120 --> 00:54:48,320 since the foundation is the most important piece to building a building 545 00:54:48,320 --> 00:54:57,440 whether it's the shack or the massive castle or mansion granted the shack 546 00:54:57,440 --> 00:55:03,280 needs a much less sturdy foundation than the mansion but both still need a 547 00:55:03,280 --> 00:55:08,560 foundation so that's why maybe instead of that's how the world works maybe 548 00:55:08,560 --> 00:55:16,880 it's actually that's the order of importance that you should like the 549 00:55:16,880 --> 00:55:23,440 order of value you get out of each so maybe that's how you should study maybe 550 00:55:23,440 --> 00:55:28,480 you should focus all in on worldview which is why I'm very glad that I got 551 00:55:28,480 --> 00:55:32,160 into worldview in the first place because I'm early in my life so if I just 552 00:55:32,160 --> 00:55:38,480 build this very strong foundation then I can start to build a bigger and bigger 553 00:55:38,480 --> 00:55:43,200 things because right now my foundation is like this when I first started my 554 00:55:43,200 --> 00:55:47,960 foundation was like this it was like very small I'm sorry I've I forgot that a 555 00:55:47,960 --> 00:55:52,640 lot of people aren't looking on YouTube so I gotta act like you guys can't see 556 00:55:52,640 --> 00:55:58,080 me so when I first started Transurfing my foundation was as small as my 557 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:03,480 fingertip it was very tiny it was fragile and then my foundation moved slowly 558 00:56:03,480 --> 00:56:08,360 but surely it gained width gained strength as I was reading Transurfing and 559 00:56:08,360 --> 00:56:12,800 now my foundation is as big as my hand like metaphorically speaking my my 560 00:56:12,800 --> 00:56:20,560 foundation which is my worldview and so if I spend like my early life maybe the 561 00:56:20,560 --> 00:56:27,320 next couple years or soon less I don't know just focusing on my foundation 562 00:56:27,320 --> 00:56:32,800 building as strong as possible then I can make it as big as possible and then 563 00:56:32,800 --> 00:56:39,440 I'll be able to build a castle on top of it and that castle represents my life 564 00:56:39,440 --> 00:56:44,960 like would you rather your life be a shack or do you want your life to be a 565 00:56:44,960 --> 00:56:52,000 castle I don't know about you but I would prefer it to be a castle and guess 566 00:56:52,000 --> 00:56:55,960 what you can actually choose you can choose the shack and or you can choose 567 00:56:55,960 --> 00:57:02,800 the castle my friend George he's the one that's younger one-year younger he I was 568 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:09,080 talking like I said I was talking to him today and he is getting into acting 569 00:57:09,080 --> 00:57:16,760 like that's his goal his goal his life goal is to win an Oscar and he is 570 00:57:16,760 --> 00:57:27,280 actually today he was he's just looking into worldview and today he we were 571 00:57:27,280 --> 00:57:32,480 talking and then we were like leaving because he had to go get lunch and I was 572 00:57:32,480 --> 00:57:38,600 going home so we were leaving each other but we're in the hallway and he was like 573 00:57:38,600 --> 00:57:45,600 well will I make it he yelled to me will I make it referring to like will he 574 00:57:45,600 --> 00:57:53,280 achieve his goals and I said yes and then I said if you choose if you choose to 575 00:57:53,280 --> 00:58:00,120 when in hindsight I should have just said if you choose like only if you choose 576 00:58:00,120 --> 00:58:06,360 to because it's not for me to say whether he will make it or not like that's 577 00:58:06,360 --> 00:58:13,280 all that's his decision like it's his decision whether he wins an Oscar or not 578 00:58:13,280 --> 00:58:18,440 like that may sound crazy to some people but it's true that's how the world works 579 00:58:18,440 --> 00:58:27,240 like Jeff Bezos Mr. Beast Russell Brunson like all these people did not 580 00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:33,240 accidentally stumble upon their achievements like they didn't accidentally 581 00:58:33,240 --> 00:58:37,920 do that and that's something that people intuitively understand but when it comes 582 00:58:37,920 --> 00:58:42,840 to their own life they find it hard to believe like they kind of understand that 583 00:58:42,840 --> 00:58:50,240 they didn't like Mr. Beast didn't accidentally create a massive YouTube 584 00:58:50,240 --> 00:58:54,160 channel like he didn't accidentally do that he didn't just one day stumble 585 00:58:54,160 --> 00:59:00,120 across this and then happen to do it no he purposely chose to through his 586 00:59:00,120 --> 00:59:05,280 actions and his thoughts like I was listening to I was watching I watched a 587 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:10,320 video yesterday he literally spent hours all day he would spend all day on a 588 00:59:10,320 --> 00:59:15,920 call with like four other youtubers for a thousand days just talking about things 589 00:59:15,920 --> 00:59:21,200 that they learned like that's no accident he did that on purpose that's 590 00:59:21,200 --> 00:59:25,560 through his actions as well as his thoughts and so you can choose anything 591 00:59:25,560 --> 00:59:31,800 you want like you just have to make like you just have to make your and the way 592 00:59:31,800 --> 00:59:34,600 you make your choices through your actions and thoughts those are those are 593 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:38,640 the two ways to impact reality and I'm starting to believe that your thoughts 594 00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:43,080 are way more powerful and we have way more of an influence over your life 595 00:59:43,080 --> 00:59:51,680 than your actions but that's pretty much it so you you will make it if you 596 00:59:51,680 --> 00:59:59,840 choose so learn how to choose and then choose to wrap things up don't forget to 597 00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:03,960 download your
