1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,000 What level are you on the map of consciousness? 2 00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:11,360 So, in, I finished 10x's easier than 2x today. 3 00:00:12,200 --> 00:00:17,200 And it's a book by Dr. Benjamin Hardy and Dan Sullivan. 4 00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,960 And in the conclusion, the conclusion was probably 5 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,400 my favorite chapter out of the whole thing. 6 00:00:25,400 --> 00:00:28,120 The conclusion as well as the chapter where he was talking 7 00:00:28,120 --> 00:00:33,120 about switching up your schedule, your work schedule 8 00:00:33,360 --> 00:00:36,620 to make it more optimal for progress. 9 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:41,400 Meaning add rest days and buffer days and focus days. 10 00:00:43,760 --> 00:00:47,320 But in the conclusion, he talked about this one book 11 00:00:48,240 --> 00:00:53,240 called the map of, no, it was called Force versus Power. 12 00:00:56,400 --> 00:00:57,720 I believe it was called that. 13 00:00:57,720 --> 00:01:01,480 And it's by Dr. Hawkins, I wanna say. 14 00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:06,920 And so, he basically said that most people, 15 00:01:08,480 --> 00:01:09,920 well, here let me explain this first. 16 00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,280 The map of consciousness is basically like a grid 17 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,600 or it looks like a timeline, but it's just like, 18 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:23,600 imagine a line, a horizontal line with zero on one end 19 00:01:24,280 --> 00:01:26,520 and 1,000 on the other end. 20 00:01:26,520 --> 00:01:29,720 And then as you go up the numbers, 21 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:34,720 you reach different levels of consciousness or awareness. 22 00:01:35,040 --> 00:01:40,040 So like zero through 50 is like anger or no. 23 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,640 It's like, okay, I don't even remember, 24 00:01:47,640 --> 00:01:49,960 I don't remember what the actual numbers are, 25 00:01:49,960 --> 00:01:54,960 but pretty much zero through 150 are all negative emotions. 26 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:59,960 So like anger, fear, doubt, disbelief, 27 00:02:00,840 --> 00:02:04,920 like all the negative emotions are zero through 150. 28 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:11,000 And then from 150 onwards is like happiness, joy, peace, 29 00:02:15,160 --> 00:02:17,840 and then 1,000 is enlightenment. 30 00:02:19,940 --> 00:02:23,440 And the premise of 10X is easier than 2X, 31 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:27,240 the book that I first heard of this concept 32 00:02:28,360 --> 00:02:32,240 is all about just continually progressing yourself 33 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:36,040 and progressing your kind of advancement as a person. 34 00:02:37,760 --> 00:02:40,440 And so he actually wrote in the conclusion 35 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,960 that according to Dr. Hawkins, 36 00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:44,760 I'm just gonna call him Dr. Hawkins, 37 00:02:44,760 --> 00:02:48,560 I could, I probably should have remembered his name, 38 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:51,120 but the guy who wrote the book, 39 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:55,480 the map of consciousness as well as force versus power, 40 00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:01,480 that guy, Dr. Hawkins said that the average people, 41 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:05,560 like the majority of the population, 42 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:08,880 like the far majority of the world, 43 00:03:08,880 --> 00:03:12,120 the entire population of humanity, 44 00:03:12,120 --> 00:03:16,520 only progress like five points or five levels. 45 00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:20,460 So they go from 100 to 105. 46 00:03:20,460 --> 00:03:25,240 So they don't even progress to like higher levels. 47 00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:26,480 They just progress five points 48 00:03:26,480 --> 00:03:29,400 throughout their entire lifetime on average. 49 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:32,380 That's the average person, normal person. 50 00:03:33,960 --> 00:03:38,960 And most people are operating under level 150. 51 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,600 So most people are still operating 52 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:43,940 under those negative emotions, 53 00:03:43,940 --> 00:03:50,940 like fear, worry, anger, like all these negative emotions. 54 00:03:51,800 --> 00:03:53,520 And he said that, 55 00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,040 Dr. Hardy said that it's actually surprising 56 00:03:56,040 --> 00:04:00,760 because most people only progress five points 57 00:04:00,760 --> 00:04:04,200 when you can actually progress like hundreds of points 58 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,320 in a short period of time. 59 00:04:06,320 --> 00:04:08,280 And that's what 10X is going on. 60 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,720 That's what going 10X is all about, 61 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:14,120 progressing multiple points in a short period of time. 62 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,200 This was really interesting for me to see 63 00:04:21,200 --> 00:04:26,040 because I didn't realize that this book 64 00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:31,320 was kind of about consciousness. 65 00:04:31,320 --> 00:04:34,480 Well, 10X is easier than 2X. 66 00:04:34,480 --> 00:04:37,120 I assumed that it was just going to be a normal 67 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:41,360 average self-development book 68 00:04:41,360 --> 00:04:45,320 or like an average entrepreneur book, mindset book. 69 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:47,040 But it's so much more than that. 70 00:04:49,440 --> 00:04:52,240 It actually talked about consciousness at the end, 71 00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:54,440 which is what I'm getting into right now. 72 00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:57,200 Like I'm really looking into the gateway experience. 73 00:04:57,200 --> 00:04:59,360 I haven't really researched it in a little bit, 74 00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:01,960 but I've been practicing the meditations 75 00:05:01,960 --> 00:05:03,160 for the gateway experience, 76 00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:05,200 like all about exploring consciousness 77 00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:07,360 and exploring your awareness. 78 00:05:08,240 --> 00:05:11,160 And so the fact that he talked about Dr. Hawkins, 79 00:05:11,160 --> 00:05:13,400 I had never even heard of Dr. Hawkins 80 00:05:13,400 --> 00:05:16,200 before this morning when I read that. 81 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,000 And so just before this episode, 82 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:23,000 I actually looked up the Force versus Power 83 00:05:23,240 --> 00:05:26,320 and it's like a 450 page book. 84 00:05:26,320 --> 00:05:29,160 And then I also looked up, 85 00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:32,120 he also wrote another book called 86 00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,200 The Map of Consciousness Explained, 87 00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,280 which is like 400 pages. 88 00:05:37,280 --> 00:05:40,760 So those are two books that I definitely want 89 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:42,600 to read in the future. 90 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,160 But there's one issue. 91 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:47,800 I have seven books already on my list right now 92 00:05:47,800 --> 00:05:49,680 that I've already purchased and they're already 93 00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,120 on my bookshelf after I finish reading this one next book, 94 00:05:53,120 --> 00:05:56,560 which is Create, Don't Capture. 95 00:05:56,560 --> 00:05:59,040 And so I started reading Create, Don't Capture this morning 96 00:05:59,040 --> 00:06:01,960 after I finished 10X is easier than 2X. 97 00:06:01,960 --> 00:06:04,000 And I'm really looking forward to it 98 00:06:04,000 --> 00:06:06,840 because it's the first book that I've ever read 99 00:06:06,840 --> 00:06:10,400 about how to become like a content creator. 100 00:06:10,400 --> 00:06:15,400 Like I had started producing like content online 80 days ago 101 00:06:19,320 --> 00:06:23,160 when my first episode on this podcast published. 102 00:06:24,160 --> 00:06:28,440 And I never really looked up like how to do it better 103 00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,360 or how to do it. 104 00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:33,000 So this is why I'm really excited to read from this book, 105 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:34,760 but this book will be pretty quick. 106 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:39,880 And then I also have, cause it's only 170 pages, 107 00:06:39,880 --> 00:06:43,840 but next books I'm gonna read, I've already told you guys 108 00:06:43,840 --> 00:06:48,720 are all about like spirituality and just like discovering 109 00:06:48,720 --> 00:06:51,440 the truth, which I don't know what that means, 110 00:06:51,440 --> 00:06:54,200 but I want to discover the truth. 111 00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:57,040 Those are the next books that I'm reading. 112 00:06:57,040 --> 00:07:02,040 And I definitely want to add the force versus power, 113 00:07:04,520 --> 00:07:08,480 as well as the map of consciousness explained 114 00:07:08,480 --> 00:07:13,480 on my reading list, like to high priority reading list, 115 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:16,320 like probably like the next books that I read. 116 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,440 But there's one issue and it's that I only have like $100 117 00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:20,520 in my bank account. 118 00:07:20,520 --> 00:07:23,840 Yeah, I'm back down to nothing. 119 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,480 And I can't, I have to kind of control my spending 120 00:07:27,480 --> 00:07:31,200 because I usually like to buy a lot of books. 121 00:07:31,200 --> 00:07:34,640 Like I probably spent, I wouldn't be surprised 122 00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,640 if it was closer to $1,000 on books over the past year. 123 00:07:39,800 --> 00:07:44,800 And I have to just keep my spending under control 124 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:48,000 because I have some subscriptions that I need 125 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:53,000 to be able to pay for, like my RSS.com subscription, 126 00:07:53,920 --> 00:07:56,000 which hosts my podcast. 127 00:07:56,000 --> 00:07:58,880 So without that, the podcast will go down. 128 00:07:58,880 --> 00:08:00,880 So I have to be able to pay for that 129 00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:05,880 as well as my recording, or as well as my editing software, 130 00:08:06,240 --> 00:08:07,600 podcastle.ai. 131 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:10,400 And there's a few other subscriptions 132 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:12,560 that I have to pay for, like later, 133 00:08:12,560 --> 00:08:17,560 which I schedule TikToks on and speaking of TikToks. 134 00:08:19,600 --> 00:08:22,760 I have been posting three TikToks 135 00:08:22,760 --> 00:08:24,920 and three YouTube shorts every single day, 136 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:28,440 the same videos just on both platforms. 137 00:08:29,640 --> 00:08:33,720 And so I've found that my YouTube channel 138 00:08:33,720 --> 00:08:35,360 has grown a little bit more. 139 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:39,480 People still aren't listening to the podcast on the YouTube, 140 00:08:39,480 --> 00:08:44,400 which by the way, I do have a face cam for the past week. 141 00:08:44,400 --> 00:08:48,920 I've had a face cam on my YouTube videos for my podcast. 142 00:08:48,920 --> 00:08:50,720 So right now, if you go on YouTube 143 00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:53,760 and listen to this podcast, you'll be able to see me. 144 00:08:53,760 --> 00:08:58,760 And I have, like for the past week, I had no background, 145 00:08:59,480 --> 00:09:04,200 but now my mom put up a sheet behind me. 146 00:09:04,200 --> 00:09:06,040 So that's why now I have a background. 147 00:09:06,040 --> 00:09:11,040 But speaking of TikToks and shorts, 148 00:09:13,680 --> 00:09:16,160 when I went to Funalacking Live, 149 00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:19,760 one of the things that I learned on the first day 150 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:23,480 that I needed to implement was to post shorts 151 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:25,200 every single day. 152 00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,360 And so I decided to record three YouTube shorts 153 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,760 slash TikToks every single day and post three every day. 154 00:09:32,760 --> 00:09:36,760 And as a result, I have been doing that 155 00:09:36,760 --> 00:09:38,960 for the past like week. 156 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:44,760 And the first, okay, so my TikTok is doing a lot better 157 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:46,360 than my YouTube. 158 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:48,200 And I predict it's because my YouTube, 159 00:09:48,200 --> 00:09:52,960 I've already posted like 80 long form podcasts 160 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:55,400 that no one is interested in listening to. 161 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,320 And so the algorithm kind of hates me on that regard. 162 00:09:59,320 --> 00:10:02,600 So I think that it'll take a little bit of recovery 163 00:10:02,600 --> 00:10:06,240 on my shorts to kind of bring it back up. 164 00:10:06,240 --> 00:10:11,240 But I'm really looking forward to seeing where this takes off 165 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:18,040 because my first couple of TikToks got maybe 10, 50 views. 166 00:10:20,520 --> 00:10:23,320 And I like that my first TikTok got 50 views 167 00:10:23,320 --> 00:10:26,440 or one of my first ones got 50 views and I was hype. 168 00:10:26,440 --> 00:10:29,740 I was really excited because that was 50 views is a lot. 169 00:10:29,740 --> 00:10:33,420 Because I was expecting like five views, 10 views, 170 00:10:33,420 --> 00:10:34,980 like no views. 171 00:10:34,980 --> 00:10:39,980 And then recently, I like the past, 172 00:10:41,100 --> 00:10:42,340 well, not the past three now 173 00:10:42,340 --> 00:10:45,860 because three more have posted since I checked. 174 00:10:45,860 --> 00:10:49,340 But last night I checked after recording the podcast 175 00:10:49,340 --> 00:10:54,340 and I've gotten 250 views on like three TikToks in a row. 176 00:10:54,340 --> 00:10:56,460 And people are liking them. 177 00:10:56,460 --> 00:11:00,340 And also people are like one person 178 00:11:00,340 --> 00:11:02,300 favorited one of my TikToks. 179 00:11:02,300 --> 00:11:03,300 So that's awesome. 180 00:11:04,460 --> 00:11:07,900 And I feel like it's gonna be really important. 181 00:11:07,900 --> 00:11:12,900 So there's a few things that you guys may be able to expect 182 00:11:12,900 --> 00:11:15,060 in the future, a few changes. 183 00:11:15,060 --> 00:11:18,300 So first of all, I'm expecting to get a lot better 184 00:11:18,300 --> 00:11:22,060 at recording my TikToks because as I'm recording 185 00:11:22,060 --> 00:11:26,100 my TikToks because and I may switch 186 00:11:26,100 --> 00:11:29,140 from three TikToks every day to just one. 187 00:11:29,140 --> 00:11:30,180 And let me explain. 188 00:11:31,500 --> 00:11:35,500 The guy that told that like basically gave the speech 189 00:11:35,500 --> 00:11:40,500 at Funalaki Live to get us to post daily on TikTok, 190 00:11:41,420 --> 00:11:46,420 he developed a framework for like the perfect YouTube short 191 00:11:48,140 --> 00:11:50,400 or the perfect short form video. 192 00:11:50,400 --> 00:11:53,220 And it's similar to Russell Brunson's 193 00:11:53,220 --> 00:11:56,060 perfect webinar script, except it's basically 194 00:11:56,060 --> 00:12:00,060 like a 60 second perfect video script. 195 00:12:00,060 --> 00:12:03,700 And it's basically where you have the hook 196 00:12:03,700 --> 00:12:06,300 which hooks the viewer's attention. 197 00:12:06,300 --> 00:12:11,300 And then you have a three secrets and then a story. 198 00:12:12,140 --> 00:12:13,420 I might have that flopped. 199 00:12:13,420 --> 00:12:15,540 It might be a story and then three secrets. 200 00:12:15,540 --> 00:12:16,380 I don't know. 201 00:12:16,380 --> 00:12:18,660 It doesn't really matter because I'll figure it out later. 202 00:12:18,660 --> 00:12:21,020 But you have three secrets. 203 00:12:21,020 --> 00:12:25,840 So it's say like, do you guys wanna hear three secrets 204 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:28,020 on how to get rich? 205 00:12:28,020 --> 00:12:30,460 Secret number one is this, secret number two, 206 00:12:30,460 --> 00:12:33,340 secret number three, and then it goes through. 207 00:12:33,340 --> 00:12:38,340 And then it has the offer, but I don't think offer 208 00:12:39,340 --> 00:12:41,380 would be a thing or maybe it would be called to action 209 00:12:41,380 --> 00:12:42,380 like fall for more. 210 00:12:43,580 --> 00:12:46,500 And so that's, I learned about that for the TikToks 211 00:12:46,500 --> 00:12:47,780 but I never really did it. 212 00:12:47,780 --> 00:12:52,700 I just, if I did that then I would have to switch 213 00:12:52,700 --> 00:12:55,660 to just doing one TikTok a day, which would be fine. 214 00:12:55,660 --> 00:12:58,700 Which I might end up doing because I started reading 215 00:12:58,700 --> 00:13:01,460 the create don't capture book. 216 00:13:01,460 --> 00:13:06,460 And literally after two chapters, I had an epiphany 217 00:13:09,740 --> 00:13:12,580 and I wrote down in the notes like on the last page 218 00:13:12,580 --> 00:13:15,900 of the book, on like the blank page 219 00:13:15,900 --> 00:13:18,420 where I sometimes write notes on my books. 220 00:13:18,420 --> 00:13:22,820 I wrote down, should I structure my podcast 221 00:13:22,820 --> 00:13:27,820 to follow the perfect 60 second, excuse me, 222 00:13:29,020 --> 00:13:34,020 perfect 60 second TikTok basically. 223 00:13:34,900 --> 00:13:38,100 So should I structure my podcast 224 00:13:38,100 --> 00:13:43,020 to be a 60 minute version of the perfect short? 225 00:13:43,020 --> 00:13:47,180 So essentially I would have a hook 226 00:13:47,180 --> 00:13:50,380 and then I'd have like 20 minutes, 227 00:13:50,380 --> 00:13:55,380 no it would be like 15 minutes of secret one, 228 00:13:55,660 --> 00:14:00,660 15 minutes of secret two, 15 minutes of secret three. 229 00:14:00,860 --> 00:14:03,220 And then I would reveal all the secrets in the beginning 230 00:14:03,220 --> 00:14:06,660 of the podcast to get people to listen to the whole thing 231 00:14:06,660 --> 00:14:08,340 so they could get all the secrets. 232 00:14:09,700 --> 00:14:12,260 And then potentially put the most interesting secret 233 00:14:12,260 --> 00:14:15,420 at the end so that people listen to the whole thing. 234 00:14:15,420 --> 00:14:17,500 Maybe that will help with my engagement. 235 00:14:17,500 --> 00:14:21,780 I don't know what my engagement is on podcasts. 236 00:14:21,780 --> 00:14:24,180 I don't think they tell me that stat, 237 00:14:24,180 --> 00:14:27,940 but I think that will help a lot with my engagement 238 00:14:27,940 --> 00:14:32,980 as well as just quality of the podcast. 239 00:14:32,980 --> 00:14:35,300 So that would be a good structure 240 00:14:35,300 --> 00:14:37,480 that I may experiment with in the future. 241 00:14:37,480 --> 00:14:42,480 And then I also, I'd have to switch it to one short every day 242 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,580 just follow that same structure except minified. 243 00:14:51,040 --> 00:14:53,600 But I don't know, that's a few things 244 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,320 to look forward to possibly. 245 00:14:57,640 --> 00:15:02,380 But I wanna talk about 10X is easier than 2X. 246 00:15:02,380 --> 00:15:07,380 I'm realizing that I'm really thinking about 247 00:15:08,020 --> 00:15:09,820 that map of consciousness 248 00:15:09,820 --> 00:15:13,460 and how the majority of people on this world, 249 00:15:13,460 --> 00:15:15,980 like 99% of people in this world 250 00:15:15,980 --> 00:15:20,980 only move five points out of 1,000. 251 00:15:21,380 --> 00:15:23,940 There is 1,000 points up for grabs 252 00:15:23,940 --> 00:15:26,420 on the map of consciousness. 253 00:15:26,420 --> 00:15:28,660 And the majority of people only move five points 254 00:15:28,660 --> 00:15:32,240 in their entire lifetime, like 80 years. 255 00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:33,800 They only move five points. 256 00:15:36,100 --> 00:15:38,740 When you can actually move like hundreds of points 257 00:15:38,740 --> 00:15:41,860 in a very short amount of time, like a year, 258 00:15:41,860 --> 00:15:43,820 a couple months, I don't know how long it takes, 259 00:15:43,820 --> 00:15:48,500 but I'm definitely like looking into that. 260 00:15:48,500 --> 00:15:51,700 And I think that I have moved up a couple of points 261 00:15:51,700 --> 00:15:54,340 over the past like seven months 262 00:15:54,340 --> 00:15:57,700 because I definitely think that transurfing, 263 00:15:57,700 --> 00:15:59,100 reading, reality, transurfing 264 00:15:59,100 --> 00:16:01,020 has helped me move up a lot of points 265 00:16:01,020 --> 00:16:01,980 and studying that. 266 00:16:04,980 --> 00:16:06,860 And that's kind of where I'm at with that, 267 00:16:06,860 --> 00:16:11,860 but one thing that I realized is there's a lot, 268 00:16:16,380 --> 00:16:18,100 there's a lot to do. 269 00:16:18,100 --> 00:16:21,540 Or there's a, no, what am I even talking about? 270 00:16:21,540 --> 00:16:24,500 This morning, I'm switching the topic completely. 271 00:16:24,500 --> 00:16:29,500 This morning, I finished the transurfing review final part. 272 00:16:33,660 --> 00:16:38,420 So there's gonna be two episodes coming up in the future 273 00:16:38,420 --> 00:16:42,460 of Transurfing Principles Part Nine and Part Ten. 274 00:16:43,380 --> 00:16:46,980 So it'll be a 10-part series completed. 275 00:16:47,940 --> 00:16:52,940 So if you guys are new here, I have this series 276 00:16:52,940 --> 00:16:55,660 that I recorded while I was reading the book, 277 00:16:55,660 --> 00:16:57,660 Reality Transurfing. 278 00:16:57,660 --> 00:16:59,780 And I would basically just kind of, 279 00:16:59,780 --> 00:17:03,420 I just record and review all of the principles 280 00:17:03,420 --> 00:17:05,220 that I learned, like review all of my notes 281 00:17:05,220 --> 00:17:06,940 from the week before. 282 00:17:06,940 --> 00:17:11,100 And so this will be a compilation of all of my notes 283 00:17:11,100 --> 00:17:15,140 from the last few weeks of reading, 284 00:17:15,140 --> 00:17:17,780 ever since Transurfing Principles Part Eight. 285 00:17:18,740 --> 00:17:22,060 And I didn't want to like write it out 286 00:17:22,060 --> 00:17:24,020 until I got home from Funnel Hacking Live, 287 00:17:24,020 --> 00:17:29,020 so I can kind of recall it and have it go through my brain 288 00:17:29,460 --> 00:17:31,540 after I started to forget about it. 289 00:17:31,540 --> 00:17:34,460 So this morning, I spent like an hour 290 00:17:35,460 --> 00:17:39,460 doing the principles review. 291 00:17:41,940 --> 00:17:46,300 And I realized that, okay, so I already knew this, 292 00:17:46,300 --> 00:17:49,740 but it was brought more to my attention. 293 00:17:49,740 --> 00:17:54,740 So we can control our reality. 294 00:17:54,860 --> 00:17:57,420 So we are the maker of our reality. 295 00:17:57,420 --> 00:18:00,060 So we are literally God. 296 00:18:01,300 --> 00:18:04,020 Like we are a manifestation of God. 297 00:18:06,100 --> 00:18:08,780 And so what that means is that we are creators 298 00:18:08,780 --> 00:18:10,540 of our own reality. 299 00:18:10,540 --> 00:18:12,940 Like we can't create the entire world. 300 00:18:12,940 --> 00:18:16,580 Like we can't change the entire world, 301 00:18:16,580 --> 00:18:20,180 but we can, we definitely have our own layer 302 00:18:20,180 --> 00:18:21,780 of our world at our disposal. 303 00:18:22,940 --> 00:18:26,020 And there's one kind of, one concept 304 00:18:26,020 --> 00:18:28,020 that really stuck with me again, 305 00:18:28,020 --> 00:18:29,660 because I remember the first time I read it 306 00:18:29,660 --> 00:18:32,260 and the second time I read it, it stuck with me. 307 00:18:32,260 --> 00:18:35,700 But this morning when I reread it and wrote it down, 308 00:18:35,700 --> 00:18:36,900 it really stuck with me. 309 00:18:38,420 --> 00:18:43,420 We need to take care of our layer of our world, 310 00:18:43,940 --> 00:18:45,780 which is our thoughts. 311 00:18:45,780 --> 00:18:47,260 Let me explain this. 312 00:18:47,260 --> 00:18:49,820 We need to take care of our layer of the world 313 00:18:51,300 --> 00:18:55,380 just as much as we take care of our physical bodies. 314 00:18:56,860 --> 00:19:00,900 We can control our reality 315 00:19:00,900 --> 00:19:03,780 just as we can control our physical body. 316 00:19:06,220 --> 00:19:09,900 And then when we control our physical reality, 317 00:19:10,820 --> 00:19:11,860 that's our thoughts. 318 00:19:11,860 --> 00:19:14,380 Our thoughts are equal to our physical reality. 319 00:19:14,380 --> 00:19:18,380 So this is what I'm thinking. 320 00:19:19,500 --> 00:19:22,540 I'm like, the more and more I read this stuff, 321 00:19:22,540 --> 00:19:25,020 the more and more I understand it, which is everything. 322 00:19:25,020 --> 00:19:29,980 If you just spend time over a few months or years 323 00:19:29,980 --> 00:19:33,740 studying something, you'll understand it a lot. 324 00:19:33,740 --> 00:19:37,300 And so the more weeks and months that I spend 325 00:19:37,300 --> 00:19:41,460 like thinking about this stuff and learning about this, 326 00:19:41,460 --> 00:19:44,580 the more it kind of goes through my mind 327 00:19:44,580 --> 00:19:46,220 and I can understand a lot more. 328 00:19:47,500 --> 00:19:52,060 So when we control our thoughts, we control our reality. 329 00:19:53,540 --> 00:19:56,500 And it makes sense because the majority of people 330 00:19:56,500 --> 00:19:59,860 only move up five points throughout their whole lifetime 331 00:19:59,860 --> 00:20:01,340 on the map of consciousness. 332 00:20:02,260 --> 00:20:05,300 And the majority of people don't control their thoughts. 333 00:20:05,300 --> 00:20:08,060 Like the reason why I know this is because 334 00:20:08,060 --> 00:20:11,540 I was part of the majority one year ago 335 00:20:12,620 --> 00:20:14,180 and I never controlled my thoughts. 336 00:20:14,180 --> 00:20:18,220 I didn't even give them a second thought, no pun intended. 337 00:20:19,220 --> 00:20:22,380 Like I would literally just allow my thoughts 338 00:20:22,380 --> 00:20:23,580 to control themselves. 339 00:20:23,580 --> 00:20:26,220 Like I would literally just be controlled by my thoughts. 340 00:20:26,220 --> 00:20:28,620 Like my thoughts would go rampant 341 00:20:28,620 --> 00:20:30,380 and they would just go on their own. 342 00:20:30,380 --> 00:20:32,020 I'd just see them as like not, 343 00:20:32,020 --> 00:20:34,780 like just they'd just do whatever they want. 344 00:20:34,780 --> 00:20:36,540 Like I had no discipline over them. 345 00:20:36,540 --> 00:20:38,660 And that's everyone. 346 00:20:38,660 --> 00:20:40,220 Like I've asked people this before. 347 00:20:40,220 --> 00:20:42,740 I'm like, what are your thoughts like? 348 00:20:42,740 --> 00:20:44,060 Like do you control them? 349 00:20:44,060 --> 00:20:47,220 And they're like, no, they kind of just do whatever they want. 350 00:20:47,220 --> 00:20:52,220 Like this is everyone, everyone in the world, 351 00:20:54,980 --> 00:20:59,100 the 99% of the world does not control their thoughts. 352 00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:02,940 And so if you, but 99% of the world, 353 00:21:02,940 --> 00:21:06,540 like, okay, everyone can control their bodies 354 00:21:06,540 --> 00:21:08,780 and everyone can control their thoughts, 355 00:21:08,780 --> 00:21:11,860 but not everyone controls their thoughts. 356 00:21:13,380 --> 00:21:17,460 And those that do gain extreme success. 357 00:21:17,460 --> 00:21:20,900 Like Russell Brunson is a 358 00:21:22,660 --> 00:21:26,140 like extremely successful entrepreneur. 359 00:21:26,140 --> 00:21:31,140 He has a $100 million plus year business 360 00:21:31,140 --> 00:21:32,540 called ClickFunnels. 361 00:21:32,540 --> 00:21:36,540 He's a New York Times bestselling author. 362 00:21:36,540 --> 00:21:40,100 Like he's a hyper successful human being. 363 00:21:40,100 --> 00:21:42,860 He was an all American in wrestling 364 00:21:42,860 --> 00:21:44,380 when he was in high school. 365 00:21:44,380 --> 00:21:48,220 He went like, he was like one of the best in the nation 366 00:21:48,220 --> 00:21:50,620 in college for wrestling. 367 00:21:50,620 --> 00:21:52,780 Like he's a hyper successful human being. 368 00:21:53,780 --> 00:21:58,780 And I went to his event, Funnel Hacking Live, 369 00:21:58,780 --> 00:22:02,820 the other week and literally the first day 370 00:22:02,820 --> 00:22:05,700 he was talking about the new thought movement, 371 00:22:05,700 --> 00:22:07,220 which I had never heard of, 372 00:22:08,220 --> 00:22:13,220 but it's basically a movement of people 373 00:22:12,900 --> 00:22:14,500 or not really necessarily a movement, 374 00:22:14,500 --> 00:22:19,500 but it's basically like a time era from like the 1850s onwards 375 00:22:20,300 --> 00:22:25,300 to around the 1850s where people started to realize 376 00:22:25,580 --> 00:22:27,980 that your thoughts actually affect your reality. 377 00:22:27,980 --> 00:22:32,980 And so he basically went on a deep dive 378 00:22:33,420 --> 00:22:36,580 in the new thought movement or new thought era. 379 00:22:38,100 --> 00:22:43,100 And he like bought all of the books from these people 380 00:22:43,340 --> 00:22:45,100 and study them. 381 00:22:45,100 --> 00:22:49,020 And so if I'm just studying this for like six months, 382 00:22:49,020 --> 00:22:52,140 transurfing and just studying transurfing 383 00:22:52,140 --> 00:22:53,520 not really full time, 384 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:58,520 he's buying like 15,000 books a year on this stuff 385 00:22:59,360 --> 00:23:00,840 and reading like all of it. 386 00:23:02,840 --> 00:23:03,680 Probably not all of it, 387 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,520 but he is reading a lot about this stuff. 388 00:23:06,520 --> 00:23:10,440 So he definitely controls his thoughts 389 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,540 and he's a hyper successful person. 390 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:20,640 So I'm coming to realize that it's like 391 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,520 when you, your reality reflects your thoughts. 392 00:23:24,520 --> 00:23:26,040 Well, that is true. 393 00:23:26,040 --> 00:23:28,360 Like one of the principles of transurfing 394 00:23:28,360 --> 00:23:30,560 is called the mirror principles. 395 00:23:30,560 --> 00:23:33,280 And it's basically the world is a mirror 396 00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:35,380 that reflects your relationship to it. 397 00:23:35,380 --> 00:23:36,520 So what that basically means 398 00:23:36,520 --> 00:23:39,600 is every time you send your thought energy out, 399 00:23:39,600 --> 00:23:42,600 it gets bounced back to you in physical reality. 400 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:47,240 So you're basically standing in front of a mirror 401 00:23:47,240 --> 00:23:51,000 at all times, at all times. 402 00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:55,400 And the way you, like the way you're sending in front of it 403 00:23:55,400 --> 00:23:58,800 is by just thinking. 404 00:23:58,800 --> 00:24:02,360 And since our thoughts are nonstop, they're constant, 405 00:24:02,360 --> 00:24:05,660 we're constantly sending an image to the mirror. 406 00:24:05,660 --> 00:24:09,080 And then the mirror reflects back 407 00:24:09,080 --> 00:24:12,080 by manifesting it in real life. 408 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:14,800 So you send your thoughts out, 409 00:24:14,800 --> 00:24:17,840 the mirror manifests it back in real life, 410 00:24:17,840 --> 00:24:19,400 but there's a delay. 411 00:24:19,400 --> 00:24:22,600 So you can't, that's why you can't just say, 412 00:24:22,600 --> 00:24:24,480 like I'm a millionaire 413 00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:26,760 or you can't just think like I'm a millionaire. 414 00:24:26,760 --> 00:24:28,000 Hey, there's a delay. 415 00:24:28,000 --> 00:24:32,560 So you have to hold that image in your thought 416 00:24:32,560 --> 00:24:35,700 for quite some time and then it'll send back. 417 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,800 That's what I'm in the works of doing right now. 418 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:44,800 My goal is to move to Hawaii and surf, 419 00:24:46,240 --> 00:24:48,960 but there's some stuff that I've added to it. 420 00:24:48,960 --> 00:24:53,960 For example, a wife and a yacht. 421 00:24:54,640 --> 00:24:56,960 That's what I've added to it so far. 422 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:59,480 So I'm basically like on the yacht 423 00:24:59,480 --> 00:25:02,760 and I'm also surfing and I have a house, 424 00:25:02,760 --> 00:25:05,280 but that's kind of like what I've added to it. 425 00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:10,280 And I visualize that during my meditation, 426 00:25:11,480 --> 00:25:15,320 I usually spend like the first two thirds of the meditation 427 00:25:15,320 --> 00:25:16,880 getting into focus 10, 428 00:25:16,880 --> 00:25:19,000 which is basically trying to get your body 429 00:25:19,000 --> 00:25:21,320 as deeply relaxed as possible. 430 00:25:21,320 --> 00:25:24,200 I'm unable to get into sleep paralysis yet, 431 00:25:25,280 --> 00:25:27,600 but I will in the future. 432 00:25:27,600 --> 00:25:29,200 That's what I'm practicing for. 433 00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:32,240 And I basically, for the first two thirds, 434 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:35,160 I spend just getting as deep as possible 435 00:25:35,160 --> 00:25:38,680 and then the last one third about on average, 436 00:25:38,680 --> 00:25:43,160 I just visualize my goal and then I get out of it 437 00:25:43,160 --> 00:25:45,280 and then I go and then usually, okay, 438 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,560 so in the morning, my morning routine, 439 00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:51,040 once I'm done meditating, 440 00:25:51,040 --> 00:25:56,040 I get up and balance on my medicine ball, 441 00:25:57,400 --> 00:25:59,060 which if you guys remember, 442 00:25:59,060 --> 00:26:02,160 I have a medicine ball that I balance on every morning. 443 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,040 I do seven minutes every morning 444 00:26:05,880 --> 00:26:10,760 and I basically am doing that 445 00:26:10,760 --> 00:26:13,160 so I can become, have better balance 446 00:26:13,160 --> 00:26:14,800 so I can become a better surfer. 447 00:26:15,860 --> 00:26:18,920 And so since I just get off of visualizing 448 00:26:18,920 --> 00:26:20,440 while I'm balancing, 449 00:26:20,440 --> 00:26:22,840 or since I just get off of visualizing, 450 00:26:22,840 --> 00:26:24,200 then I start balancing on the ball 451 00:26:24,200 --> 00:26:26,680 and continue that like visualization 452 00:26:26,680 --> 00:26:29,480 and imagine that I'm surfing while I'm balancing on the ball. 453 00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:32,080 So that's another time that I do it. 454 00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:34,760 And I find that every once in a while, 455 00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:37,160 some days it's more, some days it's less. 456 00:26:37,160 --> 00:26:39,400 Throughout the day, I think about my goal, 457 00:26:39,400 --> 00:26:41,800 but I find that it's kind of, 458 00:26:41,800 --> 00:26:44,240 it doesn't really happen too often. 459 00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:48,180 So that's why I put it in my routine to think about my goal. 460 00:26:50,120 --> 00:26:54,280 And then I like, I've meditated three times a day at least. 461 00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,840 So I get visualization three times a day. 462 00:26:57,840 --> 00:27:01,600 And that's one of the things that Russ Brunson said, 463 00:27:01,600 --> 00:27:03,520 visualize your goal every single day. 464 00:27:05,280 --> 00:27:09,480 Like, hyper successful people are focusing on their thoughts. 465 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:11,600 Like they don't get there on accident. 466 00:27:11,600 --> 00:27:14,240 And it just makes sense. 467 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:18,520 Like when I first got into reality, trans surfing, 468 00:27:18,520 --> 00:27:21,920 I realized like, before I even knew about any of this stuff, 469 00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:24,940 I realized that I was focused on my physical body, 470 00:27:24,940 --> 00:27:27,620 but I didn't really focus on my thoughts. 471 00:27:27,620 --> 00:27:29,920 I knew that my thoughts were like, 472 00:27:29,920 --> 00:27:33,280 oh yeah, you should probably focus on those next. 473 00:27:33,280 --> 00:27:35,360 Just like the next thing to improve, 474 00:27:35,360 --> 00:27:38,600 but I didn't realize just how important they are. 475 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,880 Now that I'm starting to realize how important my thoughts are, 476 00:27:41,880 --> 00:27:45,780 I'm going all in on like, fixing them. 477 00:27:47,920 --> 00:27:52,920 And it's also like, I have seven months in to trans surfing, 478 00:27:54,480 --> 00:27:56,400 and probably only like four months in 479 00:27:56,400 --> 00:27:57,820 to actually focusing on my thoughts, 480 00:27:57,820 --> 00:28:01,800 because I'm going to be honest for like the first, 481 00:28:02,720 --> 00:28:07,720 I didn't even start like worrying about waking up in my day 482 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:10,280 until the second time I read trans surfing. 483 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:13,760 Like I was just asleep the whole time 484 00:28:13,760 --> 00:28:15,760 I was reading trans surfing the first, 485 00:28:15,760 --> 00:28:28,760 which is basically not being present. 486 00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:37,760 There's a lot going on, 487 00:28:37,760 --> 00:28:42,760 and I know that I'm on the right path, 488 00:28:42,760 --> 00:28:45,760 I'm really excited for future, 489 00:28:45,760 --> 00:28:49,760 but I'm going to be honest, 490 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:51,760 there's one thing that's been on my mind. 491 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:56,760 Lately my podcast quality has not been up to par. 492 00:28:56,760 --> 00:29:01,760 I'm not happy with the level of quality 493 00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:04,760 that I've been putting out for my podcast lately, 494 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:10,760 which is why there's some changes that are going to be happening. 495 00:29:10,760 --> 00:29:13,760 Today I'm going to be doing a double episode. 496 00:29:14,760 --> 00:29:17,760 So what that means is I'm going to be recording two episodes today, 497 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:22,760 so I can get another trans surfing principles episode out. 498 00:29:22,760 --> 00:29:27,760 But that means that I'm going to have, 499 00:29:27,760 --> 00:29:31,760 instead of five episodes scheduled ahead of time, 500 00:29:31,760 --> 00:29:34,760 I'll have six, and then tomorrow I'm going to record 501 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,760 two episodes again, so then I'll be at seven. 502 00:29:38,760 --> 00:29:45,760 And then all week from tomorrow, starting tomorrow, 503 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:50,760 ending, I'll have to see what my gym timing is, 504 00:29:50,760 --> 00:29:54,760 but pretty much all week, like tomorrow through Friday, 505 00:29:54,760 --> 00:30:01,760 I'm going to be like practicing sketching out, 506 00:30:01,760 --> 00:30:07,760 or not even sketching out, but framing out 507 00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:09,760 future episodes. 508 00:30:09,760 --> 00:30:12,760 So if you guys heard yesterday I talked about 509 00:30:12,760 --> 00:30:15,760 one of the things that I'm going to be doing is 510 00:30:15,760 --> 00:30:17,760 adding rest days to my day, 511 00:30:17,760 --> 00:30:20,760 because usually I just record every single day 512 00:30:20,760 --> 00:30:22,760 and have no rest days. 513 00:30:22,760 --> 00:30:25,760 But I know that it's essential to have rest days, 514 00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:27,760 especially from work. 515 00:30:27,760 --> 00:30:33,760 So I'm going to be having all week rest days 516 00:30:33,760 --> 00:30:35,760 slash buffer days, which means that 517 00:30:35,760 --> 00:30:40,760 I'm going to be, at least for this first week, 518 00:30:40,760 --> 00:30:44,760 I'm going to be spending all week still recording, 519 00:30:44,760 --> 00:30:49,760 because I want to maintain the seven episode schedule. 520 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,760 So I'm still going to be recording all week, 521 00:30:52,760 --> 00:30:56,760 but I'm also going to be schedule, not scheduling, 522 00:30:56,760 --> 00:30:59,760 but I'm also going to be planning out episodes, 523 00:30:59,760 --> 00:31:03,760 which means that I'm going to start taking notes again 524 00:31:03,760 --> 00:31:05,760 in my books. 525 00:31:05,760 --> 00:31:09,760 So every single time I see something that's important, 526 00:31:09,760 --> 00:31:12,760 I'm writing it down. 527 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:20,760 And then when it's time to work out the episode, 528 00:31:20,760 --> 00:31:22,760 like when it's time to script out, 529 00:31:22,760 --> 00:31:25,760 I'm not going to script it, but I'm going to plan it out. 530 00:31:25,760 --> 00:31:27,760 So I'm going to have, like I said, 531 00:31:27,760 --> 00:31:31,760 I'm going to try the three secrets for one episode. 532 00:31:31,760 --> 00:31:33,760 See how that goes. 533 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:39,760 And I'm going to be doing... 534 00:31:39,760 --> 00:31:41,760 I'm just going to go through all my notes 535 00:31:41,760 --> 00:31:43,760 of what I read in the morning, 536 00:31:43,760 --> 00:31:46,760 and then just compile an episode. 537 00:31:46,760 --> 00:31:48,760 That's what I'm going to do. 538 00:31:48,760 --> 00:31:50,760 I'm going to figure out how these notes, 539 00:31:50,760 --> 00:31:52,760 like, connect with each other, 540 00:31:52,760 --> 00:31:57,760 and I'm going to say three secrets for this one result. 541 00:31:57,760 --> 00:32:00,760 So for example, three secrets to get rich. 542 00:32:00,760 --> 00:32:02,760 And they're going to be different, 543 00:32:02,760 --> 00:32:05,760 but they're going to be towards the same result. 544 00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:09,760 That's what I'm thinking for improving the quality of my episodes. 545 00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:11,760 So I can have rest days, 546 00:32:11,760 --> 00:32:14,760 but this first week is going to be very tough 547 00:32:14,760 --> 00:32:19,760 because I still want to maintain my daily recording 548 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:23,760 so that I can stay at a seven-episode schedule. 549 00:32:23,760 --> 00:32:27,760 But I also want to script out future episodes 550 00:32:27,760 --> 00:32:31,760 so that over the weekend I can just crank out a bunch of episodes 551 00:32:31,760 --> 00:32:33,760 and record a bunch. 552 00:32:33,760 --> 00:32:38,760 It's going to be interesting, but I think it'll be worth it. 553 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:41,760 Because to be honest, 554 00:32:41,760 --> 00:32:43,760 it's extremely tough 555 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,760 because when I was reading Transurfing, 556 00:32:46,760 --> 00:32:48,760 I knew exactly what to talk about 557 00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:52,760 because I was just constantly learning exactly what 558 00:32:52,760 --> 00:32:54,760 you guys want to hear, 559 00:32:54,760 --> 00:32:56,760 or not necessarily what you guys want to hear, 560 00:32:56,760 --> 00:32:59,760 I was learning exactly what I wanted to talk about. 561 00:32:59,760 --> 00:33:03,760 Or I was also strengthening my knowledge on Transurfing 562 00:33:03,760 --> 00:33:07,760 because that was my second time reading it and I was studying it. 563 00:33:07,760 --> 00:33:11,760 And like I said, whatever you're reading at the time heavily influences 564 00:33:11,760 --> 00:33:14,760 the course of events in the day. 565 00:33:14,760 --> 00:33:16,760 So if you're reading Transurfing, 566 00:33:16,760 --> 00:33:18,760 you're going to be talking about Transurfing a lot 567 00:33:18,760 --> 00:33:20,760 and you're going to be thinking about it a lot, 568 00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:24,760 which means that it'll affect the podcast episode greatly, 569 00:33:24,760 --> 00:33:28,760 which is why I had entire episodes dedicated to Transurfing. 570 00:33:28,760 --> 00:33:30,760 Eight up to date. 571 00:33:30,760 --> 00:33:34,760 Eight whole episodes just for Transurfing. 572 00:33:34,760 --> 00:33:40,760 And there was many other episodes where I talked mostly on Transurfing. 573 00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:43,760 But I switched to 10x's easier than 2x, 574 00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:46,760 which I don't have a great understanding on yet 575 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:51,760 because it was just my first time reading it. 576 00:33:51,760 --> 00:33:55,760 But I don't know, let me get some water. 577 00:34:07,760 --> 00:34:09,760 I want to talk about the gym. 578 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:14,760 So one of the things I realized, 579 00:34:14,760 --> 00:34:18,760 something I realized at Funnel Hacking Live was 580 00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,760 I focused on strategies over tactics. 581 00:34:21,760 --> 00:34:26,760 So essentially, I started to realize this over time, 582 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:30,760 especially when I found out that like billionaires don't even know 583 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:33,760 like what payment processors they're using 584 00:34:33,760 --> 00:34:36,760 or they don't know all the little tactics. 585 00:34:36,760 --> 00:34:39,760 All they know is the main strategies on how to move forward. 586 00:34:39,760 --> 00:34:42,760 They know the business strategies. 587 00:34:42,760 --> 00:34:44,760 And so I started to realize that 588 00:34:44,760 --> 00:34:49,760 and then I realized one time to focus on the general strategy. 589 00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:54,760 I don't remember exactly what the story was behind how it came to the epiphany. 590 00:34:54,760 --> 00:34:59,760 But I was like telling my friend about that 591 00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:01,760 and then he was like, oh, that makes so much sense. 592 00:35:01,760 --> 00:35:06,760 That's why there are like skinny bodybuilders 593 00:35:06,760 --> 00:35:09,760 that are focusing on all these little things 594 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:13,760 like the exact angle, all the tactics for lifting. 595 00:35:13,760 --> 00:35:17,760 But then there's absolutely massive jacked bodybuilders 596 00:35:17,760 --> 00:35:20,760 that are just going like going so fast, 597 00:35:20,760 --> 00:35:26,760 pumping out the weight so fast with extremely high intensity. 598 00:35:26,760 --> 00:35:30,760 And that's because they're focusing on the strategies over the tactics. 599 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:35,760 They're making sure that they have the main strategy down, 600 00:35:35,760 --> 00:35:37,760 which is intensity. 601 00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:40,760 And so I was like, oh yeah, but I didn't really think much about it. 602 00:35:40,760 --> 00:35:46,760 And then one day I was in a rush for while I was at the gym. 603 00:35:46,760 --> 00:35:48,760 I was in a rush and it was my push day. 604 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,760 So I was hitting chest, trice and shoulders. 605 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:54,760 And so I was, I usually like superset when I'm in a rush, 606 00:35:54,760 --> 00:35:58,760 but this time I supersetted as well as had high intensity. 607 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:02,760 And let me tell you, it is so much better. 608 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:06,760 If you focus on just high intensity, 609 00:36:06,760 --> 00:36:09,760 like that's the only thing I focus on. 610 00:36:09,760 --> 00:36:17,760 Like I had a crazy pump and I was only there for like probably 25 minutes. 611 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:20,760 And so I've been doing high intensity at the gym lately. 612 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:26,760 Yesterday I had an amazing leg day, high intensity. 613 00:36:26,760 --> 00:36:32,760 And then today I had a great whole day, high intensity. 614 00:36:32,760 --> 00:36:38,760 And tomorrow I'm going to have another chest day or push day, high intensity. 615 00:36:38,760 --> 00:36:41,760 So focus on the strategies over the tactics. 616 00:36:41,760 --> 00:36:49,760 Which is also another reason why I haven't been focusing too much on the tactics for my videos. 617 00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:55,760 Like I haven't even looked into like keywords or... 618 00:36:55,760 --> 00:36:59,760 I haven't looked into a lot of the things which I'm sure they're very important. 619 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:02,760 And it's probably just excuses by me. 620 00:37:02,760 --> 00:37:06,760 But to be honest, I don't really care too much about it. 621 00:37:06,760 --> 00:37:11,760 But there is one thing that I do want to get is thumbnails. 622 00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:19,760 Because I feel like that's another reason why my episodes are not doing too hot on YouTube. 623 00:37:19,760 --> 00:37:22,760 Is because I don't have any thumbnails. 624 00:37:22,760 --> 00:37:27,760 Also it's probably because people don't want to listen to a one hour long video. 625 00:37:27,760 --> 00:37:30,760 But I don't know. 626 00:37:30,760 --> 00:37:33,760 I think that there are people that want to listen to a one hour long video. 627 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:39,760 Because I used to watch Hamza all the time. And a lot of people would watch his long form videos. 628 00:37:39,760 --> 00:37:41,760 And that's another thing. 629 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:51,760 I think that I might go back to watch just like one of the podcasts that I used to listen to. 630 00:37:51,760 --> 00:37:56,760 Like Modern Wisdom or Die of a CEO. 631 00:37:56,760 --> 00:38:02,760 I might listen to one of those podcasts. 632 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:06,760 Maybe not. Because those are like guest speakers a lot of the times. 633 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:11,760 And I don't have a guest speaker. It's always just me talking. 634 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:16,760 But I also want to go onto YouTube and watch Hamza video again. 635 00:38:16,760 --> 00:38:18,760 So I can see like what he does. 636 00:38:18,760 --> 00:38:21,760 So I can like figure out how to make my stuff better. 637 00:38:21,760 --> 00:38:29,760 Because I feel like if I can make a YouTube video. 638 00:38:29,760 --> 00:38:33,760 Right now I'm just making a podcast. Like I'm just sitting here in front of the camera. 639 00:38:33,760 --> 00:38:36,760 Or in front of the microphone just speaking. 640 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:42,760 But if I can make a YouTube video that I can repurpose into a podcast. 641 00:38:42,760 --> 00:38:44,760 Without having people confused. 642 00:38:44,760 --> 00:38:48,760 Like without having people be required to look at the screen. 643 00:38:48,760 --> 00:38:53,760 Like for example if I make sure that I don't say like look at here. 644 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:56,760 If I make sure not to like put images on the screen. 645 00:38:56,760 --> 00:38:59,760 Or if I need to know that you need to be able to see. 646 00:38:59,760 --> 00:39:02,760 To like understand what's going on. 647 00:39:02,760 --> 00:39:06,760 I feel like if I do that and make like YouTube videos. 648 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:08,760 And then repurpose it for podcasts. 649 00:39:08,760 --> 00:39:12,760 It will be so much better. 650 00:39:12,760 --> 00:39:14,760 But I don't know. 651 00:39:14,760 --> 00:39:16,760 I have to figure out what. 652 00:39:16,760 --> 00:39:18,760 Because I haven't looked at YouTube in a while. 653 00:39:18,760 --> 00:39:22,760 So I'd have to figure out like what Hamza's doing. 654 00:39:22,760 --> 00:39:25,760 And see. 655 00:39:25,760 --> 00:39:27,760 That had to actually be a good idea. 656 00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:30,760 See what he does for his podcast. 657 00:39:30,760 --> 00:39:31,760 Because or not podcast. 658 00:39:31,760 --> 00:39:33,760 His YouTube. 659 00:39:33,760 --> 00:39:38,760 This is very one of the most valuable lessons that I learned so far. 660 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,760 Is to model other people. 661 00:39:41,760 --> 00:39:43,760 Like figure out what works. 662 00:39:43,760 --> 00:39:45,760 And literally just model it. 663 00:39:45,760 --> 00:39:49,760 And I learned this in Russell Brunson's books. 664 00:39:49,760 --> 00:39:50,760 His dot com secrets. 665 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:51,760 Expert secrets. 666 00:39:51,760 --> 00:39:52,760 Traffic secrets. 667 00:39:52,760 --> 00:39:54,760 I learned it's called funnel hacking. 668 00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:57,760 Where you basically look at another company's website. 669 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:00,760 That is like profitable and that's doing very well. 670 00:40:00,760 --> 00:40:02,760 And then you just model it. 671 00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:03,760 So wherever they have a headline. 672 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:05,760 You put your headline. 673 00:40:05,760 --> 00:40:08,760 Wherever they have a buy now button. 674 00:40:08,760 --> 00:40:10,760 You put your buy now button. 675 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:11,760 Or they have a story or a picture. 676 00:40:11,760 --> 00:40:13,760 You put your story or picture there. 677 00:40:13,760 --> 00:40:15,760 And you basically just model it. 678 00:40:15,760 --> 00:40:16,760 And I learned that. 679 00:40:16,760 --> 00:40:20,760 And I started to apply that to other things. 680 00:40:20,760 --> 00:40:25,760 Like for example my podcast. 681 00:40:25,760 --> 00:40:28,760 My picture my profile pic. 682 00:40:28,760 --> 00:40:30,760 Is basically modeled from. 683 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:31,760 Diary of a CEO. 684 00:40:31,760 --> 00:40:35,760 Modern wisdom. 685 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:37,760 On purpose. 686 00:40:37,760 --> 00:40:40,760 Like those those podcasters. 687 00:40:40,760 --> 00:40:44,760 I modeled my picture off of that. 688 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:46,760 And then I modeled. 689 00:40:46,760 --> 00:40:48,760 Like my intro. 690 00:40:48,760 --> 00:40:51,760 My old intro off of what Russell's. 691 00:40:51,760 --> 00:40:53,760 Wrote in extra secrets. 692 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:56,760 And then I also like a lot of things I modeled. 693 00:40:56,760 --> 00:40:58,760 So. 694 00:40:58,760 --> 00:41:01,760 Model off of other people. 695 00:41:01,760 --> 00:41:04,760 Like even my gym routine I modeled off of someone else originally. 696 00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:05,760 Like I just looked up. 697 00:41:05,760 --> 00:41:07,760 Push pull legs. 698 00:41:07,760 --> 00:41:09,760 And I looked at the pictures. 699 00:41:09,760 --> 00:41:12,760 And I copied that routine. 700 00:41:12,760 --> 00:41:13,760 Just do that. 701 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:17,760 And so obviously Hamza's videos are working. 702 00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:19,760 Like he is extremely popular. 703 00:41:19,760 --> 00:41:22,760 He's extremely successful. 704 00:41:22,760 --> 00:41:25,760 So if I just figure out what he's doing and model it. 705 00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,760 For my own stuff. 706 00:41:27,760 --> 00:41:32,760 I can get on good. 707 00:41:32,760 --> 00:41:34,760 And I think that. 708 00:41:34,760 --> 00:41:38,760 One of the important things is to find my own niche. 709 00:41:38,760 --> 00:41:40,760 So if you guys haven't noticed that. 710 00:41:40,760 --> 00:41:42,760 Especially on today's episode. 711 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:44,760 I always just like bounce back and forth. 712 00:41:44,760 --> 00:41:47,760 Between many different. 713 00:41:47,760 --> 00:41:49,760 Topics and themes. 714 00:41:49,760 --> 00:41:51,760 And that makes the episode hard to listen to. 715 00:41:51,760 --> 00:41:54,760 And a lot of times I'm just talking about my own progress. 716 00:41:54,760 --> 00:41:57,760 Because I simply don't have anything to talk about. 717 00:41:57,760 --> 00:41:59,760 So I think that. 718 00:41:59,760 --> 00:42:03,760 It'll be extremely beneficial once I start scripting out these videos. 719 00:42:03,760 --> 00:42:05,760 Or not like completely scripting out. 720 00:42:05,760 --> 00:42:06,760 But writing it. 721 00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:08,760 Writing like episode notes. 722 00:42:08,760 --> 00:42:10,760 Like just writing notes. 723 00:42:10,760 --> 00:42:11,760 Down. 724 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:12,760 And. 725 00:42:12,760 --> 00:42:15,760 Maybe I'll be able to start writing the show notes. 726 00:42:15,760 --> 00:42:18,760 Or chapter notes or chapters. 727 00:42:18,760 --> 00:42:19,760 I don't know what they're called. 728 00:42:19,760 --> 00:42:20,760 But. 729 00:42:20,760 --> 00:42:23,760 Because I know that Hamza writes notes. 730 00:42:23,760 --> 00:42:24,760 I'm pretty sure he writes notes. 731 00:42:24,760 --> 00:42:26,760 Because I remember one time he was like. 732 00:42:26,760 --> 00:42:27,760 Oh let me check my notes or. 733 00:42:27,760 --> 00:42:29,760 Something I don't know. 734 00:42:29,760 --> 00:42:30,760 I don't know. 735 00:42:30,760 --> 00:42:31,760 But. 736 00:42:31,760 --> 00:42:32,760 I want to figure out like all that. 737 00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:34,760 Because. 738 00:42:34,760 --> 00:42:36,760 He is able to talk about something. 739 00:42:36,760 --> 00:42:38,760 For literally an hour and a half. 740 00:42:38,760 --> 00:42:40,760 And have no stoppage. 741 00:42:40,760 --> 00:42:42,760 No stop. 742 00:42:42,760 --> 00:42:45,760 And he has notes I'm pretty sure. 743 00:42:45,760 --> 00:42:48,760 So notes are extremely important. 744 00:42:48,760 --> 00:42:50,760 And that's the one thing I don't do. 745 00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:53,760 But I do do them on the Transurf and Principles episodes. 746 00:42:53,760 --> 00:42:56,760 And I think those are some of my best episodes. 747 00:42:56,760 --> 00:42:59,760 And I'm going to be recording another one. 748 00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:00,760 In 20 minutes. 749 00:43:00,760 --> 00:43:02,760 Once I'm done with this episode. 750 00:43:02,760 --> 00:43:04,760 But. 751 00:43:04,760 --> 00:43:06,760 Just model other people. 752 00:43:06,760 --> 00:43:08,760 That's what I did when I was like. 753 00:43:08,760 --> 00:43:10,760 Coming up with my morning routine. 754 00:43:10,760 --> 00:43:11,760 And. 755 00:43:11,760 --> 00:43:12,760 My. 756 00:43:12,760 --> 00:43:13,760 Just my day. 757 00:43:13,760 --> 00:43:15,760 I was figuring out like what. 758 00:43:15,760 --> 00:43:17,760 Successful people do. 759 00:43:17,760 --> 00:43:18,760 Well they read. 760 00:43:18,760 --> 00:43:20,760 Well they go to the gym. 761 00:43:20,760 --> 00:43:21,760 They meditate. 762 00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:22,760 They eat clean. 763 00:43:22,760 --> 00:43:23,760 They eat healthy. 764 00:43:23,760 --> 00:43:24,760 Like. 765 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:26,760 They do all these things. 766 00:43:26,760 --> 00:43:28,760 And then now I'm realizing. 767 00:43:28,760 --> 00:43:29,760 That. 768 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,760 One thing that I never even knew. 769 00:43:32,760 --> 00:43:34,760 Was they focus on their thoughts. 770 00:43:34,760 --> 00:43:37,760 Like they focus on everything that's going up here. 771 00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:39,760 That's going up here in their mind. 772 00:43:39,760 --> 00:43:42,760 Focus on all of that stuff. 773 00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:44,760 Which is all internal work. 774 00:43:44,760 --> 00:43:46,760 Like no one sees that work. 775 00:43:46,760 --> 00:43:48,760 Like people can see if you're going to the gym. 776 00:43:48,760 --> 00:43:49,760 And. 777 00:43:49,760 --> 00:43:52,760 I heard this. 778 00:43:52,760 --> 00:43:56,760 I read this in 10x's easier than 2x. 779 00:43:56,760 --> 00:43:57,760 There is. 780 00:43:57,760 --> 00:43:59,760 A story about this one. 781 00:43:59,760 --> 00:44:01,760 Super Bowl champion. 782 00:44:01,760 --> 00:44:03,760 Quarterback. 783 00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:05,760 Who I believe was retired. 784 00:44:05,760 --> 00:44:07,760 Who was talking about this one. 785 00:44:07,760 --> 00:44:08,760 Quarterback. 786 00:44:08,760 --> 00:44:09,760 And. 787 00:44:09,760 --> 00:44:11,760 Forgive me because I don't know. 788 00:44:11,760 --> 00:44:12,760 Like the names. 789 00:44:12,760 --> 00:44:14,760 I don't watch football that often. 790 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:15,760 But. 791 00:44:15,760 --> 00:44:17,760 He was talking about this one quarterback. 792 00:44:17,760 --> 00:44:18,760 Who. 793 00:44:18,760 --> 00:44:20,760 Like went 10x. 794 00:44:20,760 --> 00:44:21,760 And he used to be good. 795 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:23,760 But now he's great. 796 00:44:23,760 --> 00:44:24,760 And. 797 00:44:24,760 --> 00:44:25,760 The. 798 00:44:25,760 --> 00:44:27,760 Super Bowl winner who was talking about him. 799 00:44:27,760 --> 00:44:30,760 Said like this guy does the lonely work. 800 00:44:30,760 --> 00:44:31,760 He goes out. 801 00:44:31,760 --> 00:44:32,760 And does the work. 802 00:44:32,760 --> 00:44:34,760 Like he goes out. 803 00:44:34,760 --> 00:44:35,760 To the. 804 00:44:35,760 --> 00:44:36,760 Like. 805 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:38,760 Hit those reps when no one's watching. 806 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,760 It's not the stuff that you post on social media. 807 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:44,760 It's not the stuff you tell people that he does out. 808 00:44:44,760 --> 00:44:45,760 And does. 809 00:44:45,760 --> 00:44:47,760 Goes out and does the lonely work. 810 00:44:47,760 --> 00:44:49,760 Like no one knows that he's doing this. 811 00:44:49,760 --> 00:44:50,760 Except for him. 812 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:51,760 And he does it because this. 813 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:53,760 Pones his craft. 814 00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:55,760 So he spent. 815 00:44:55,760 --> 00:44:56,760 Days. 816 00:44:56,760 --> 00:44:57,760 Hours every day. 817 00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,760 For months or years. 818 00:45:00,760 --> 00:45:01,760 Out. 819 00:45:01,760 --> 00:45:03,760 Like at the park by himself. 820 00:45:03,760 --> 00:45:05,760 Getting the reps in. 821 00:45:05,760 --> 00:45:07,760 And no one else knows. 822 00:45:07,760 --> 00:45:09,760 And that's the lonely work. 823 00:45:09,760 --> 00:45:11,760 And so that's kind of what I'm thinking. 824 00:45:11,760 --> 00:45:13,760 The inner work is because. 825 00:45:13,760 --> 00:45:15,760 When I was first. 826 00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:17,760 When I first discovered about transfer fame. 827 00:45:17,760 --> 00:45:18,760 It was. 828 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:20,760 I watched a video. 829 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:21,760 And it was. 830 00:45:21,760 --> 00:45:22,760 Interview. 831 00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,760 Someone was interviewing him on. 832 00:45:24,760 --> 00:45:26,760 About what books he's been doing. 833 00:45:26,760 --> 00:45:27,760 And. 834 00:45:27,760 --> 00:45:28,760 I was. 835 00:45:28,760 --> 00:45:33,760 And it was a. 836 00:45:33,760 --> 00:45:34,760 Interview. 837 00:45:34,760 --> 00:45:36,760 Someone was interviewing him on. 838 00:45:36,760 --> 00:45:38,760 About what books he reads right now. 839 00:45:38,760 --> 00:45:39,760 And he said. 840 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:40,760 Transurfing. 841 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:41,760 That was it. 842 00:45:41,760 --> 00:45:42,760 That was the. 843 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:43,760 It was a YouTube short. 844 00:45:43,760 --> 00:45:45,760 So it was like 10 seconds long. 845 00:45:45,760 --> 00:45:46,760 And then I remember. 846 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:48,760 Like telling my friend about it. 847 00:45:48,760 --> 00:45:49,760 And then. 848 00:45:49,760 --> 00:45:50,760 He. 849 00:45:50,760 --> 00:45:52,760 Saw a video and he said that. 850 00:45:52,760 --> 00:45:54,760 He saw another video. 851 00:45:54,760 --> 00:45:56,760 And it was basically. 852 00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:58,760 A. 853 00:45:58,760 --> 00:45:59,760 YouTube short video. 854 00:45:59,760 --> 00:46:00,760 About transfer. 855 00:46:00,760 --> 00:46:01,760 And he said. 856 00:46:01,760 --> 00:46:02,760 It was someone. 857 00:46:02,760 --> 00:46:05,760 I think it was the same video except like extended. 858 00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,760 Because he was like. 859 00:46:07,760 --> 00:46:08,760 What books do you read. 860 00:46:08,760 --> 00:46:09,760 And he was like. 861 00:46:09,760 --> 00:46:10,760 Rowdy transfer. 862 00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:11,760 And then he was like. 863 00:46:11,760 --> 00:46:12,760 Yeah. 864 00:46:12,760 --> 00:46:13,760 The thing is that. 865 00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:14,760 Most people these days. 866 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,760 Don't do the inner work. 867 00:46:16,760 --> 00:46:17,760 Like. 868 00:46:17,760 --> 00:46:18,760 You. 869 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:20,760 I don't remember exactly how the video went. 870 00:46:20,760 --> 00:46:21,760 But. 871 00:46:21,760 --> 00:46:22,760 The. 872 00:46:22,760 --> 00:46:23,760 Summer. 873 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:24,760 The moral of. 874 00:46:24,760 --> 00:46:27,760 He said that most people don't do the inner work and you got to build it. 875 00:46:27,760 --> 00:46:30,760 You got to do the inner work if you want to be successful. 876 00:46:30,760 --> 00:46:33,760 And the inner work is all the stuff that goes in your mind. 877 00:46:33,760 --> 00:46:34,760 Like up here. 878 00:46:34,760 --> 00:46:36,760 In the inner head. 879 00:46:36,760 --> 00:46:39,760 And that's the lonely work because no one sees it. 880 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:40,760 No one sees. 881 00:46:40,760 --> 00:46:42,760 You constantly. 882 00:46:42,760 --> 00:46:43,760 Waking up. 883 00:46:43,760 --> 00:46:46,760 No one sees anything that is going on in your head. 884 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:48,760 Only you know about that. 885 00:46:48,760 --> 00:46:51,760 Like that is the true lonely work. 886 00:46:51,760 --> 00:46:53,760 No one knows about it. 887 00:46:53,760 --> 00:46:54,760 Like. 888 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:55,760 Yes. 889 00:46:55,760 --> 00:46:59,760 No one knows that that quarterback went out to the park. 890 00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:01,760 But he was doing it in physical reality. 891 00:47:01,760 --> 00:47:02,760 Yes. 892 00:47:02,760 --> 00:47:03,760 It was lonely work. 893 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:04,760 Yes. 894 00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:05,760 It's extremely hard. 895 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:06,760 Yes. 896 00:47:06,760 --> 00:47:07,760 No one else wants to do it. 897 00:47:07,760 --> 00:47:08,760 And that's why he was great. 898 00:47:08,760 --> 00:47:09,760 But the. 899 00:47:09,760 --> 00:47:10,760 Like. 900 00:47:10,760 --> 00:47:11,760 The. 901 00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:13,760 Lonely work as well. 902 00:47:13,760 --> 00:47:18,760 Is I don't want to discredit what this quarterback is doing because. 903 00:47:18,760 --> 00:47:20,760 I've done that before. 904 00:47:20,760 --> 00:47:22,760 Literally just for. 905 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:24,760 Few months and it's it's rough. 906 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:26,760 It's like that's the only work. 907 00:47:26,760 --> 00:47:28,760 No one wants to do it. 908 00:47:28,760 --> 00:47:31,760 And I was not able to maintain it obviously. 909 00:47:31,760 --> 00:47:32,760 But. 910 00:47:34,760 --> 00:47:37,760 The lonely work goes on up here because. 911 00:47:39,760 --> 00:47:42,760 So just bear with me here. 912 00:47:42,760 --> 00:47:47,760 If we all agree that successful the difference between success. 913 00:47:47,760 --> 00:47:48,760 Successful people. 914 00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:53,760 Like the difference between the 1% and the 99% is all up here. 915 00:47:53,760 --> 00:47:55,760 Like objectively speaking. 916 00:47:58,760 --> 00:48:00,760 Actually I don't know but. 917 00:48:01,760 --> 00:48:04,760 All the hyper successful people like. 918 00:48:04,760 --> 00:48:08,760 Hyper successful entrepreneurs Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos. 919 00:48:08,760 --> 00:48:11,760 Bill Gates like these people. 920 00:48:12,760 --> 00:48:16,760 They look average like they just look like a normal person right. 921 00:48:16,760 --> 00:48:17,760 Right. 922 00:48:17,760 --> 00:48:20,760 Like they don't have wildly crazy physics like. 923 00:48:20,760 --> 00:48:21,760 There are no. 924 00:48:23,760 --> 00:48:25,760 Arnold Schwarzenegger there are no. 925 00:48:27,760 --> 00:48:28,760 Like. 926 00:48:28,760 --> 00:48:30,760 What's that guy's name. 927 00:48:30,760 --> 00:48:31,760 He's a. 928 00:48:31,760 --> 00:48:32,760 Oh C bomb. 929 00:48:33,760 --> 00:48:36,760 Chris Bumstead there are no Chris Bumstead. 930 00:48:36,760 --> 00:48:41,760 Like they have average physics they probably have average health. 931 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:45,760 Like I saw this Warren Buffett would eat like. 932 00:48:45,760 --> 00:48:47,760 Burger King every day. 933 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:49,760 Like they probably have average health. 934 00:48:50,760 --> 00:48:52,760 The only difference is up here. 935 00:48:54,760 --> 00:48:57,760 They just did the inner work they did the lonely work. 936 00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:04,760 And that's the difference between hyper success and average mediocrity. 937 00:49:04,760 --> 00:49:10,760 Like that's why no one like most people only go up five points out of a thousand. 938 00:49:10,760 --> 00:49:12,760 In their entire lifetime. 939 00:49:12,760 --> 00:49:17,760 And that's why other people go hundreds of points in a few years. 940 00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:21,760 On the map of consciousness. 941 00:49:22,760 --> 00:49:25,760 So if if we can agree that the difference. 942 00:49:25,760 --> 00:49:30,760 Let's just agree that the difference between the 1% and the 99% is all mental. 943 00:49:30,760 --> 00:49:33,760 Yes they know more knowledge but that's the inner work as well. 944 00:49:33,760 --> 00:49:35,760 Like they'd sit down and read. 945 00:49:35,760 --> 00:49:41,760 But they also focus on their thoughts they also like hound their thinking. 946 00:49:41,760 --> 00:49:46,760 And get rid of they absolutely destroy all negative thoughts. 947 00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:51,760 They absolutely control their thoughts because when you control your thoughts you control reality. 948 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:58,760 So let's agree right now that the difference is your thinking your thoughts your worldview your mindset. 949 00:49:58,760 --> 00:50:07,760 So now we can go on to say that if you just do the inner work you are guaranteed success. 950 00:50:13,760 --> 00:50:17,760 If you do the inner work you will be successful. 951 00:50:17,760 --> 00:50:27,760 And the thing is one of the biggest factors stopping me from going to the gym in the first place. 952 00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:32,760 Like for years I had a gym membership just a family gym membership. 953 00:50:32,760 --> 00:50:36,760 And for years I would sit on the back couch watching YouTube. 954 00:50:36,760 --> 00:50:41,760 And my sister and my mom or my dad would say go into the gym you won't come with. 955 00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:45,760 And I always say no no for years this happened. 956 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:50,760 And inside it was because I was too embarrassed. 957 00:50:50,760 --> 00:50:52,760 I didn't want to do it. 958 00:50:52,760 --> 00:50:54,760 Like I was too embarrassed to go out. 959 00:50:54,760 --> 00:51:01,760 I didn't want people to see so I literally for during COVID during the lockdown. 960 00:51:01,760 --> 00:51:08,760 I literally just sat I would like every night I would just do like push-ups in my in my room. 961 00:51:08,760 --> 00:51:14,760 So and then if I heard people walking by I would instantly stop because I was embarrassed. 962 00:51:16,760 --> 00:51:23,760 But when you're doing the inner work no one has to see no one has to know you're the only one that knows. 963 00:51:23,760 --> 00:51:25,760 But that's also another thing. 964 00:51:25,760 --> 00:51:31,760 If you rely on other people's gratification other people's approval their permission. 965 00:51:31,760 --> 00:51:33,760 You're not going to want to do it. 966 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:39,760 But if you also rely on other people's permission you don't need no one's permission to do the inner work. 967 00:51:39,760 --> 00:51:43,760 Because no one knows no knows that it's it's happening. 968 00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:50,760 And then all of a sudden things are going to change because remember the world is a mirror but it has a delay. 969 00:51:50,760 --> 00:51:54,760 So right now I'm in the delay stagnant time. 970 00:51:54,760 --> 00:51:58,760 Like there's no changes happening in my life. 971 00:51:58,760 --> 00:52:02,760 But eventually it's going to come like a tidal wave. 972 00:52:02,760 --> 00:52:06,760 I don't actually know if it's going to come like a tidal wave but that's what I'm telling myself. 973 00:52:06,760 --> 00:52:08,760 It's going to come like a tidal wave. 974 00:52:08,760 --> 00:52:14,760 It's going to catch everyone else by surprise because this whole time I've been doing the inner work. 975 00:52:14,760 --> 00:52:16,760 And taking charge of my thoughts. 976 00:52:16,760 --> 00:52:21,760 When you take charge of your thoughts you take charge of your reality. 977 00:52:21,760 --> 00:52:27,760 You can control your reality just as much as you can control your physical body. 978 00:52:27,760 --> 00:52:30,760 Like I have full control over my physical body. 979 00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:31,760 I can open my eyes. 980 00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:32,760 I can shake my head. 981 00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:33,760 I can move my hands around. 982 00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:34,760 I can run. 983 00:52:34,760 --> 00:52:35,760 I can jump. 984 00:52:35,760 --> 00:52:40,760 Like that's all inner intention. 985 00:52:40,760 --> 00:52:53,760 But another one of our features in this life is to be able to control our reality. 986 00:52:53,760 --> 00:52:56,760 Like we are creators. 987 00:52:56,760 --> 00:53:02,760 We are God. 988 00:53:02,760 --> 00:53:06,760 God created us and put a piece of him in us. 989 00:53:06,760 --> 00:53:11,760 So now we are creators as well. 990 00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:13,760 If you just follow that. 991 00:53:13,760 --> 00:53:20,760 If you consider your intention, the intention of God, how can it fail? 992 00:53:20,760 --> 00:53:30,760 God created stuff that we can't even see outside of this universe. 993 00:53:30,760 --> 00:53:37,760 So how like he created a star, something that we can't even touch. 994 00:53:37,760 --> 00:53:42,760 Something so far away from us that we can barely see it in our night sky. 995 00:53:42,760 --> 00:53:46,760 He created that. 996 00:53:46,760 --> 00:53:52,760 How can we expect him to fail at creating the life that we want in our own little corner 997 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:53,760 of the world? 998 00:53:53,760 --> 00:53:56,760 Like we can control our own reality. 999 00:53:56,760 --> 00:53:58,760 Like my layer of the world I can control. 1000 00:53:58,760 --> 00:54:00,760 I'm the creator of my layer of the world. 1001 00:54:00,760 --> 00:54:03,760 So how can I fail at creating that? 1002 00:54:03,760 --> 00:54:09,760 There's no way I can fail because it's God's intention. 1003 00:54:09,760 --> 00:54:18,760 And to finish this episode up I want to talk about sleep and a nighttime routine. 1004 00:54:18,760 --> 00:54:27,760 Every single night for the past four months I want to say, five months. 1005 00:54:27,760 --> 00:54:29,760 I've always journaled right before bed. 1006 00:54:29,760 --> 00:54:35,760 And then for the past three to four months I always meditated right before bed. 1007 00:54:35,760 --> 00:54:39,760 And I added those to my routine because I knew they were important. 1008 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:44,760 I wanted to have a journaling daily but I didn't know where to add it. 1009 00:54:44,760 --> 00:54:49,760 So I just put in my nighttime routine because whenever something is in your morning routine 1010 00:54:49,760 --> 00:54:52,760 or your nighttime routine it is guaranteed to happen in your day. 1011 00:54:52,760 --> 00:54:53,760 That's what I've found. 1012 00:54:53,760 --> 00:54:56,760 Like whenever something's in your routine it's guaranteed to happen every day. 1013 00:54:56,760 --> 00:54:58,760 Especially morning routine. 1014 00:54:58,760 --> 00:55:01,760 Because you just go through the motions every single morning. 1015 00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:05,760 Like that's why my morning routine is like four hours long. 1016 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:11,760 So I just jam things in there. 1017 00:55:11,760 --> 00:55:19,760 And then on my nighttime routine I have journaling and I always journal. 1018 00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:25,760 I usually before I read 10x's easier than 2x I had four questions or five questions actually. 1019 00:55:25,760 --> 00:55:27,760 First is what did I do today? 1020 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:29,760 Second is is this helping me? 1021 00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:31,760 Third is my moving forward. 1022 00:55:31,760 --> 00:55:34,760 Fourth is what am I doing tomorrow? 1023 00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:40,760 Fifth is what did I learn in my morning studies? 1024 00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:47,760 And then I added three more I think three. 1025 00:55:47,760 --> 00:55:52,760 Six is what are my daily wins? 1026 00:55:52,760 --> 00:55:57,760 So what are three things that I won doing today? 1027 00:55:57,760 --> 00:55:59,760 It's anything that's a win. 1028 00:55:59,760 --> 00:56:02,760 Even a failure if I learned a lesson on it. 1029 00:56:02,760 --> 00:56:08,760 For example I declared it a win that I screwed up my sleep schedule for a week and I fixed it. 1030 00:56:08,760 --> 00:56:13,760 Because now I know how important it is sleep for your meditations. 1031 00:56:13,760 --> 00:56:14,760 And I declared that a win. 1032 00:56:14,760 --> 00:56:17,760 That's also being in the gain mindset over the gap. 1033 00:56:17,760 --> 00:56:20,760 Which is a concept in 10x's easier than 2x. 1034 00:56:20,760 --> 00:56:23,760 The gain is where successful people reside. 1035 00:56:23,760 --> 00:56:28,760 The gap is where miserable people reside. 1036 00:56:28,760 --> 00:56:31,760 And the gain is all about interpreting everything as bad. 1037 00:56:31,760 --> 00:56:37,760 Like it's basically coordinating intention except for the past tense. 1038 00:56:37,760 --> 00:56:42,760 Oh wait no it's interpreting everything as good my bad. 1039 00:56:42,760 --> 00:56:51,760 The gain is all about seeing all your pasts, failures and successes as positive. 1040 00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:59,760 And then the gap is all about like you measuring yourself up against impossible standards and getting mad that you didn't achieve that. 1041 00:56:59,760 --> 00:57:08,760 But the question six in my journaling every night is all about what are my daily wins? 1042 00:57:08,760 --> 00:57:12,760 Because when you are in the gain you are. 1043 00:57:12,760 --> 00:57:14,760 That is an extremely good advantage. 1044 00:57:14,760 --> 00:57:17,760 So I added that to my nighttime routine. 1045 00:57:17,760 --> 00:57:22,760 And then question eight is daily wants. 1046 00:57:22,760 --> 00:57:27,760 And I just write down as many things that I can think about that I want at the moment. 1047 00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:30,760 And a lot of times I repeat things like I want to surf. 1048 00:57:30,760 --> 00:57:32,760 I want to be financially free. 1049 00:57:32,760 --> 00:57:34,760 Like a lot of things are repeated. 1050 00:57:34,760 --> 00:57:38,760 But other times there's specific things that I want in that day. 1051 00:57:38,760 --> 00:57:40,760 Like I want to finish 10x disease in 2x. 1052 00:57:40,760 --> 00:57:43,760 I want to start reading the ultimate reading list for human beings. 1053 00:57:43,760 --> 00:57:45,760 Like those are my daily wants. 1054 00:57:45,760 --> 00:57:52,760 And it's because when you operate under a system of wanting you have an abundance mindset. 1055 00:57:52,760 --> 00:57:54,760 You do things because you want to. 1056 00:57:54,760 --> 00:57:55,760 There's no need to justify. 1057 00:57:55,760 --> 00:57:57,760 You want to because you want to. 1058 00:57:57,760 --> 00:58:04,760 Whereas if you operate under a need system then you're under a scarcity mindset. 1059 00:58:04,760 --> 00:58:05,760 You need things. 1060 00:58:05,760 --> 00:58:07,760 So you have to take things from other people. 1061 00:58:07,760 --> 00:58:09,760 So you justify that. 1062 00:58:09,760 --> 00:58:13,760 You have to justify why you should have it over someone else. 1063 00:58:13,760 --> 00:58:19,760 Like the 99% operate on a needing mindset. 1064 00:58:19,760 --> 00:58:23,760 We're in the 1% operating in a wanting mindset. 1065 00:58:23,760 --> 00:58:25,760 So that's another thing. 1066 00:58:25,760 --> 00:58:34,760 Dan Sullivan spent like 1000 plus days just journaling every single day of his wants. 1067 00:58:34,760 --> 00:58:36,760 So if he did that I'm going to do that too. 1068 00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:39,760 Like that's how important it is. 1069 00:58:39,760 --> 00:58:41,760 So I added that to my night's room routine. 1070 00:58:41,760 --> 00:58:46,760 And then the last thing is what are my 20% tasks? 1071 00:58:46,760 --> 00:58:49,760 And that just gives me a... 1072 00:58:49,760 --> 00:58:51,760 I know question 4 is similar to that. 1073 00:58:51,760 --> 00:58:55,760 That gives me time to think. 1074 00:58:55,760 --> 00:59:01,760 Like just moments of silence to kind of think about what tasks are actually helping me move forward. 1075 00:59:01,760 --> 00:59:03,760 What tasks are efficient. 1076 00:59:03,760 --> 00:59:05,760 So that's all about being reflective. 1077 00:59:05,760 --> 00:59:09,760 And I found that reflection is an extremely valuable thing for moving forward. 1078 00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:18,760 I improved the most I've ever improved this past summer because I journaled and I was reflective over everything that I was doing every single day. 1079 00:59:18,760 --> 00:59:24,760 And then I kind of like went stagnant on my over the past like month or so or two months. 1080 00:59:24,760 --> 00:59:28,760 I kind of just went through the motions for my journaling and I wasn't as reflective and I wasn't as critical. 1081 00:59:28,760 --> 00:59:36,760 But now that I added these three more questions, they gave me the opportunity to actually start thinking more and not just going through the motions. 1082 00:59:36,760 --> 00:59:47,760 And now that I have a hard set rule of being done recording, like being done in the basement at 445 and I have to go upstairs at that time. 1083 00:59:47,760 --> 00:59:49,760 Even if I'm not done. 1084 00:59:49,760 --> 00:59:53,760 Which I'm always done recording, but I'm not always done editing. 1085 00:59:53,760 --> 00:59:56,760 So I have to go upstairs at 445 no matter what. 1086 00:59:56,760 --> 01:00:00,760 That's my rule. 1087 01:00:00,760 --> 01:00:03,760 But that's pretty much for that. 1088 01:00:03,760 --> 01:00:05,760 That's it for the episode.
