1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000 Are you doing the inner work? 2 00:00:03,280 --> 00:00:04,840 So 3 00:00:04,840 --> 00:00:08,040 This is something that I've been working on for the past 4 00:00:09,280 --> 00:00:11,280 six seven months and 5 00:00:12,120 --> 00:00:14,120 The inner work is all about 6 00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:22,520 The work that goes on up here in your mind your worldview mindset mentality your thoughts 7 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:25,800 everything 8 00:00:25,800 --> 00:00:27,800 the 9 00:00:27,800 --> 00:00:33,920 for the first half I've been I've been reading books for about 10 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,560 13 months so a little over a year and 11 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:45,560 The first half I was just focused on external work like diet hell 12 00:00:47,040 --> 00:00:48,640 fitness 13 00:00:48,640 --> 00:00:50,640 other things but 14 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:55,840 Like breathing all that all this stuff which is great and I'm very glad I did that 15 00:00:55,840 --> 00:01:02,280 But then I got this book reality Transurfing and then I went on this path of doing the inner work 16 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,600 It's all about cleaning up 17 00:01:05,440 --> 00:01:07,920 Everything that goes on up here in your head 18 00:01:08,840 --> 00:01:11,400 Cleaning all of that up. That's the inner work and 19 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:18,000 One of the best tools that I've discovered for doing the inner work is 20 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:21,040 This thing called the Gateway experience 21 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:25,520 Which is basically just meditation it's a guided meditation 22 00:01:25,520 --> 00:01:33,680 so you could just say that the best tool is meditation which I've been meditating for the past like four months or so consistently and 23 00:01:35,200 --> 00:01:39,440 I found that I've been meditating four months and 24 00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:45,960 That helped a lot with the inner work. I was able to stay more focused throughout the day my mind 25 00:01:45,960 --> 00:01:49,720 I had more control over my mind. I was able to 26 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,160 Just clear my thoughts easier 27 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:59,680 But once I started doing the Gateway experience I did I started doing this one specific exercise 28 00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:02,200 Which is called the energy conversion box? 29 00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:07,920 And what it is it's basically when you first get into your meditation 30 00:02:07,920 --> 00:02:18,160 So it's your pre prepertory process is what they call it and the energy conversion box is basically a box that can hold 31 00:02:18,160 --> 00:02:25,400 Anything in the world anything it can hold the heaviest thing ever and 32 00:02:26,080 --> 00:02:28,080 I basically see it as an 33 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:31,160 Minecraft chest if you've ever 34 00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:37,040 Played Minecraft before it's basically you can put anything you want in it and like no matter the weight 35 00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,320 The size or anything and it's infinite 36 00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:42,640 so I basically just 37 00:02:42,640 --> 00:02:48,360 Open my energy conversion box and then I place inside all of my things 38 00:02:48,920 --> 00:02:54,480 So they say place inside of it your worries anxieties fears and concerns 39 00:02:54,480 --> 00:03:00,680 So that's what I do. I do that in the beginning. I say worry put and I literally just go through I say worry 40 00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:03,160 Put it in there anxiety in there 41 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:04,560 concerned 42 00:03:04,560 --> 00:03:09,480 Fear like and then I just keep on going back and forth creating that and then putting it in there 43 00:03:09,480 --> 00:03:12,960 Like you're supposed to create like an image of it and then put it in there 44 00:03:13,880 --> 00:03:21,680 But for a worries anxieties fear I literally just say worry and then I put it in anxiety and I put it in and then I put in 45 00:03:22,800 --> 00:03:24,560 there's 46 00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,560 There's a few other things that I put in 47 00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:28,680 like 48 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:29,920 impatience 49 00:03:29,920 --> 00:03:33,760 So I put I actually make a symbol for this. It's kind of like two 50 00:03:34,680 --> 00:03:38,040 arrows pointing to the right to kind of like 51 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,040 tips of the arrows 52 00:03:40,920 --> 00:03:44,440 That's the impatience and then I put in expectations and 53 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:50,400 There's a few other things that I put in which I'll get into soon 54 00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:56,640 Which I found that this this one specific exercise in my meditations 55 00:03:56,640 --> 00:04:02,240 I've only been doing it for a month like I've been doing the gateway experience for around about a month and 56 00:04:02,240 --> 00:04:10,120 So I've only been doing that specific energy conversion box exercise for about a month and 57 00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:17,400 It's definitely helped because in the beginning like I didn't really put that I didn't really use it that well 58 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:24,200 I was just putting worries anxieties here. It's just general stuff, but now I put specific things for example one of the most 59 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:32,440 Most influential things that I put in was there was a point in time where I was 60 00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,520 Wasting too much energy thinking about my friend 61 00:04:36,280 --> 00:04:38,280 Yeah, that's real like 62 00:04:38,960 --> 00:04:42,400 We were both the reason why this has a whole backstory 63 00:04:42,400 --> 00:04:47,840 So when we first met like four months ago or actually five months ago 64 00:04:48,400 --> 00:04:50,760 Right in the beginning of summer we met and 65 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,320 And we're both on self-improvement. So we were kind of like 66 00:04:55,040 --> 00:05:00,360 On our own paths when we first met and then slowly but surely we kind of started to merge paths 67 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:05,480 And then for like a few months we were on the same path like we were doing the same exact things 68 00:05:05,480 --> 00:05:08,480 We were both our daily routines were pretty much identical 69 00:05:08,560 --> 00:05:10,160 We were both reading the same books 70 00:05:10,160 --> 00:05:16,960 Everything was the same and then recently we started like split paths again. We started going different directions 71 00:05:16,960 --> 00:05:24,040 And so this like kind of I wasn't really conscious of this and then for like a good week maybe even longer 72 00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,040 I was like I 73 00:05:26,480 --> 00:05:28,480 Had these like negative 74 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:35,720 energies I felt these negative energies around him and it's all just because I was in my own head or I was just trying to 75 00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:41,320 Control the situation and try and control it and keep him on the same path as me 76 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:44,800 but then I came conscious of it and then I was able to 77 00:05:44,800 --> 00:05:47,560 release my group of control and 78 00:05:48,640 --> 00:05:54,640 One thing that I found is I put him in my energy conversion box and I told him about this too and he just laughed 79 00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,160 So I literally just I just say 80 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:01,200 My friend's name and I like see a picture of his face 81 00:06:01,200 --> 00:06:09,400 And then I just throw him in the energy conversion box and I found that I don't know if it's like a subconscious change or something 82 00:06:09,440 --> 00:06:12,040 But it actually helps like that works 83 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:15,440 It works so much like literally after a few days 84 00:06:16,080 --> 00:06:21,800 Maybe even like one day, but after a few days of that. I just don't think about it anymore 85 00:06:21,800 --> 00:06:24,120 I don't think about him anymore. So I 86 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:32,240 Had so much success with that and then I decided to do this one thing and this next thing requires context 87 00:06:33,080 --> 00:06:35,520 so right now my 88 00:06:35,520 --> 00:06:43,360 goal is like the goal that I visualize every day is to move to Hawaii and 89 00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:47,480 It's gotten a lot more elaborate like every day gets more elaborate 90 00:06:47,480 --> 00:06:53,040 So pretty much right now my current slide my visualization is I'm in Hawaii 91 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:59,280 And I own a quarter of a mile of a private beach and it's right in front of my house 92 00:06:59,280 --> 00:07:05,600 So I I go down the steps from my house and on the right there's surfboards and then there's this whole beach 93 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:10,760 And then on the left there's this probably like 94 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:17,120 Few hundred feet to the left there's a massive like kind of 95 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:25,400 Rock formation that makes it like an isolated area and then along the wall of that rock formation is a 96 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:28,640 pathway like a dock and 97 00:07:28,640 --> 00:07:36,240 Then the dock goes out and then it turns and then goes out towards sea which has my yacht and then my yacht is there 98 00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:39,360 so then I and I own all this and 99 00:07:40,520 --> 00:07:44,580 My surfboard that I use is all black and it's gold 100 00:07:44,600 --> 00:07:49,640 They had or it's all black with gold letters on it saying to comma club X 101 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,140 Which means that I made ten million dollars a year and 102 00:07:52,800 --> 00:07:54,800 then I 103 00:07:54,800 --> 00:08:01,420 On the right I have just another isolated area. So it's my own private isolated beach and 104 00:08:02,240 --> 00:08:05,080 it's a surfing beach also with surfing waves and 105 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:11,320 I basically have a wife in my side and 106 00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,960 We basically just walk around naked 107 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:20,520 That's that's my side because I don't like wearing clothes to be honest 108 00:08:20,920 --> 00:08:23,320 so we just walk around naked and I 109 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:29,680 I surf go in the yacht and we like meditate on the beach. We do some other stuff, but 110 00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:32,080 We'll not get into that 111 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,080 okay, so 112 00:08:35,160 --> 00:08:40,520 That's context and there's one thing that I realized it's throughout my day 113 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:44,600 There's this one issue that I have and it's lost I 114 00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:47,640 keep on 115 00:08:47,640 --> 00:08:49,640 like looking at girls and 116 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:51,640 and just 117 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:55,360 Wasting my energy and 118 00:08:55,360 --> 00:09:00,360 Checking them out like it's a waste and I've been conscious of this yet. I still do it 119 00:09:00,680 --> 00:09:05,400 But after having so much success with putting my friend in the energy conversion box 120 00:09:05,800 --> 00:09:08,920 There's this one thing that I started doing I literally put 121 00:09:09,520 --> 00:09:14,920 Girls in my energy conversion box literally just girls. There's just a general picture of a 122 00:09:14,920 --> 00:09:19,440 A circle with like a line out of it because I'm not good at visualizing 123 00:09:19,880 --> 00:09:23,120 so I I literally say a circle with a line and that just 124 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:30,960 Symbolizes like a girl with a ponytail like that is literally just I put that in the box and 125 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:36,320 That in combination with another technique that I use it's actually 126 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:45,320 I'm so like it's only been probably two days of this and I'm already so much better off like I don't I don't have any I still 127 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,000 have a 128 00:09:48,320 --> 00:09:50,000 tendency to look at 129 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:51,480 other girls 130 00:09:51,480 --> 00:09:56,120 but there's this other thing that I do to make sure that I don't and then 131 00:09:57,120 --> 00:10:01,560 The that's the energy conversion box and then you go through resonant tuning 132 00:10:01,560 --> 00:10:08,080 Which is basically just flowing the energy up your head floating around in your head and then exiting through your feet and 133 00:10:08,840 --> 00:10:12,760 then you go through resonant energy balloon, which is basically just 134 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:18,520 Flowing it up your head and then up past your head out of your body and then it like 135 00:10:19,520 --> 00:10:22,720 Invelops you I like to spiral it down over your body 136 00:10:23,240 --> 00:10:29,280 Surrounding you in like a cocoon of energy and then it goes back up through your feet and then you just repeat that process and 137 00:10:29,280 --> 00:10:34,640 Then you state your affirmation. So what I like to do is I 138 00:10:35,400 --> 00:10:40,240 end the energy or the rebel the resident energy balloon by 139 00:10:40,520 --> 00:10:43,600 Putting it up into my head and then I say my affirmation 140 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:48,440 so I have all the energy in my head to have a more powerful energetic affirmation and 141 00:10:49,320 --> 00:10:54,680 Right now they have an affirmation, but it's too long to memorize for me 142 00:10:54,680 --> 00:11:01,120 And I to be honest, I don't really like it that much. So I I made my own it's 143 00:11:01,840 --> 00:11:03,600 I am more than my physical body 144 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:12,760 I deeply desire the help from those who are further along the journey than me and have good intent to help me along my journey 145 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:14,760 to gain 146 00:11:14,760 --> 00:11:17,720 Access to higher levels of consciousness. I 147 00:11:18,440 --> 00:11:20,440 Am more than my physical body. I 148 00:11:20,440 --> 00:11:24,840 Am focused. I am focused. I am focused 149 00:11:26,560 --> 00:11:31,480 I am a man with high standards for when it comes to women 150 00:11:32,320 --> 00:11:36,560 And that's that's the last thing I added that last step that last piece 151 00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:39,360 I'm a man with high standards when it comes to women and 152 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:41,720 that I 153 00:11:41,720 --> 00:11:48,000 Repeat to myself every single time I see a girl that I may want to check out and I just say I have high standards 154 00:11:48,000 --> 00:11:52,600 I don't waste my energy on other on girls that is not my wife 155 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:55,520 So now I'm getting serious 156 00:11:56,640 --> 00:12:00,160 Like for the past couple weeks months years 157 00:12:00,160 --> 00:12:05,840 I was not serious about my goals like even even over the past couple weeks 158 00:12:05,840 --> 00:12:07,200 I was not serious 159 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:13,080 but once I started once I added my wife to my visualizing and then I started putting 160 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:19,480 Girls in the energy conversion box and I started doing the inner work during my meditation for 161 00:12:20,080 --> 00:12:22,080 relating to girls and lust 162 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,040 That's when I start getting serious now 163 00:12:25,040 --> 00:12:29,200 I know that I want like I'm focused on 164 00:12:29,720 --> 00:12:35,280 My goals and I'm focused on my future wife. No one else nothing else 165 00:12:35,760 --> 00:12:38,080 So I really think that 166 00:12:38,880 --> 00:12:40,880 Like I'm gonna be honest 167 00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:42,880 I 168 00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:44,880 I was like 169 00:12:45,160 --> 00:12:47,160 Visualizing my goals probably like 170 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,280 Maybe if I was lucky like a minute a day 171 00:12:50,880 --> 00:12:54,280 Not often and there was many days where I just didn't and 172 00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:59,000 This was when I was podcasting I was podcasting going through 173 00:13:00,160 --> 00:13:02,920 But to be honest, I was not like visualizing enough 174 00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:08,680 But ever since I added visualizing to my 175 00:13:08,680 --> 00:13:10,440 A 176 00:13:10,440 --> 00:13:14,720 Couple weeks ago. I added visualizing to my meditation routine 177 00:13:14,960 --> 00:13:22,240 So now I get at least three visualization sessions guaranteed every day while I'm high energy in that meditative state 178 00:13:22,760 --> 00:13:25,360 So it's more effective as well 179 00:13:26,440 --> 00:13:28,640 But it's also that inner work like 180 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,480 More and more as I'm doing the inner work more and more I realize how important and valuable it is 181 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:37,320 because first of all 182 00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:43,200 When me and my friend were having that that tension which I don't think he was having tension towards me 183 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,760 It was just entirely on my part by the way, like it was just me. I was just 184 00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:55,680 It was just on my side like he didn't I don't I talked to him about it and I'm pretty I'm pretty sure he didn't feel anything like that 185 00:13:56,040 --> 00:13:57,680 He was just normal 186 00:13:57,680 --> 00:14:01,080 So it's all mine. It was all on my side is on my mind 187 00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:09,400 And then I did the inner work by placing by doing that like you place him in the energy conversion box and then it's slowly 188 00:14:09,400 --> 00:14:15,840 But surely it I mean I found that it's pretty quick fairly quick like two to three days is fairly quick 189 00:14:15,920 --> 00:14:22,800 If you do it like three times a day during meditation, that's fairly quick to get that done 190 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:25,880 Very quick or result 191 00:14:25,880 --> 00:14:35,120 So that's the inner work. I realized like after that that is so valuable and then I started doing it with the girls and 192 00:14:35,840 --> 00:14:37,840 Like today at the gym 193 00:14:37,880 --> 00:14:43,280 There's this one girl that I see on pretty often there and a lot of times I 194 00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:47,000 I'm like in I'm like into her 195 00:14:47,000 --> 00:14:55,440 But today I'm like I just kept on repeating I have high standards. I have high standards and now I'm now I'm like I 196 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,280 look I'm 197 00:14:57,280 --> 00:14:59,280 Now I'm focused more on 198 00:14:59,960 --> 00:15:01,960 my goals like 199 00:15:02,440 --> 00:15:04,440 I'm having a hard time like 200 00:15:05,800 --> 00:15:12,120 Putting this stuff to words but pretty much when you do the inner work and you lock in like you lock in 201 00:15:12,640 --> 00:15:14,640 To your goals when you do your inner work 202 00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:20,000 Meditating has been the best tool for me to 203 00:15:21,040 --> 00:15:23,040 for the inner work and 204 00:15:24,640 --> 00:15:29,600 It's simply because of this one tool the energy conversion box and 205 00:15:30,600 --> 00:15:34,840 I'm sure that there's gonna be so much more stuff that I learn about along the way 206 00:15:36,080 --> 00:15:42,320 Like for example, I am only one month into the gateway experience and this whole first month 207 00:15:42,320 --> 00:15:47,040 I was only on gate on wave one this whole first month 208 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:51,160 I was just focusing on getting to focus 10 which is mind-awake body sleep 209 00:15:51,720 --> 00:15:55,080 Which I thought that it was you have to get sleep paralysis 210 00:15:55,920 --> 00:15:58,640 To be able to achieve it. That's why I was spending so long on it 211 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:07,280 When I literally just before I did my meditation just before so I meditated just before this episode and then just before that 212 00:16:07,360 --> 00:16:09,800 Meditation I was down here on my computer 213 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:11,800 I was editing yesterday's episode 214 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:14,360 but also 215 00:16:14,360 --> 00:16:19,240 Looking up while that was adding I was looking up if the gateway experience focus 10 216 00:16:19,640 --> 00:16:25,320 Because I was wondering when I should move on to wave 2 which is focus 12, which is where it actually starts to get 217 00:16:25,920 --> 00:16:28,880 Interesting because focus 10 is basically just a deep meditation 218 00:16:29,040 --> 00:16:33,280 It's just a normal meditation that you can achieve and I have achieved it before at 219 00:16:34,280 --> 00:16:36,280 Like without the gateway tapes 220 00:16:36,280 --> 00:16:42,000 But focus 12 is when it starts to get real like it starts to get crazy. That's what I've heard 221 00:16:43,200 --> 00:16:49,880 So I wanted to know when to move on to focus 12 and I looked it up and there's this one woman who posted 222 00:16:50,400 --> 00:16:53,720 on some website that said she 223 00:16:55,040 --> 00:17:00,040 Did focus 10 and she explained her focus 10 which was just her body was like 224 00:17:00,040 --> 00:17:06,280 Relaxed but she was still able to move it like she was able to move her body 225 00:17:06,280 --> 00:17:12,400 But it was just relaxed and then she was able to and then when she got that she was able to move on to focus 12 226 00:17:12,720 --> 00:17:19,120 So now I'm moving on to focus 12 actually just before this episode. I did my first 227 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:24,040 Meditation on wave 2 of 228 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:26,960 Intro to intro to focus 12 now 229 00:17:26,960 --> 00:17:30,600 I have done wave 2 before like I did the first 230 00:17:32,000 --> 00:17:35,720 exercise in the second exercise before but 231 00:17:36,440 --> 00:17:39,120 That was just me testing it just me like 232 00:17:39,720 --> 00:17:41,720 Experimenting not like seriously doing it 233 00:17:42,440 --> 00:17:44,600 but now I'm serious about it and I'm gonna 234 00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:48,760 Focus on getting focus 12 because now I know that I've gotten to focus 10 235 00:17:50,200 --> 00:17:52,200 and 236 00:17:52,200 --> 00:17:58,320 All of this like I've just been focusing on getting to focus 10 and 237 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:01,160 I 238 00:18:01,160 --> 00:18:05,720 Get to focus 10 and then for the rest of the time. I just visualized my goal 239 00:18:06,840 --> 00:18:08,120 and 240 00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:10,120 There's one thing 241 00:18:10,520 --> 00:18:13,360 There's one thing that I do with my goals. I want to tell you this 242 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,200 When I'm visualizing I 243 00:18:16,520 --> 00:18:19,840 Initially created my goal of surfing 244 00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:25,480 Probably a few months ago when I was at the park with my friend when he just got back from 245 00:18:25,960 --> 00:18:29,320 Vacation and he surfed on vacation and he said, you know, what's really fun? 246 00:18:29,320 --> 00:18:35,880 I was like what he said surfing and then instantly I had this like my heart started singing because 247 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:38,720 It was like a long lost 248 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:41,560 Desire of mine that I'd never achieved 249 00:18:41,840 --> 00:18:48,280 But I always wanted to surf and I've never done it before and so ever since then that's been my goal and 250 00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:50,160 and 251 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,960 so my slide which is my visualization 252 00:18:54,880 --> 00:18:56,560 Evolved over time 253 00:18:56,560 --> 00:18:58,760 like originally it was just me surfing and 254 00:18:59,600 --> 00:19:03,040 then after like a couple weeks or months I 255 00:19:03,800 --> 00:19:05,800 added in like a 256 00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:11,720 House my house I wanted to live there and then after a while I added in 257 00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:18,680 Like literally recently I started adding in more stuff like I added in my specific surfboard 258 00:19:18,680 --> 00:19:22,400 Which was all black and gold lighters and 2 comma Club X 259 00:19:22,640 --> 00:19:26,760 So that visualize that I that symbolize that I made 10 million dollars a year and 260 00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:34,280 Then I added in the dock that led to my yacht. That was a huge addition 261 00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:38,600 and then I added in the beach right in front of my 262 00:19:38,600 --> 00:19:43,720 like the a quarter mile beach private beach or in front of my house and 263 00:19:45,120 --> 00:19:47,040 That's pretty much all that I have so far 264 00:19:47,040 --> 00:19:54,400 but I want to like pretty much only the left side of my images developed and I want to develop the right side to like 265 00:19:54,440 --> 00:19:55,400 Figure out what's going on 266 00:19:55,400 --> 00:19:58,720 But there's one thing that I like one rule that I have for visualization 267 00:19:59,080 --> 00:20:05,040 Don't like intentionally add things and let me explain so when I'm visualizing and 268 00:20:05,040 --> 00:20:09,760 And something pops up like I suddenly have this desire to go on a yacht 269 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:14,000 Then I add the yacht to my visualization like I didn't 270 00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:21,680 Intend to have a yacht in my visualization, but all of a sudden while I was visualizing my surfing or 271 00:20:22,080 --> 00:20:25,520 On the beach. I was I was like, oh, I want to go on a yacht 272 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:30,000 So then I added a dock and then a yacht and I didn't really like I 273 00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:36,200 Want to get make it clear that I didn't do it like intentionally. It just kind of the idea just came to me 274 00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:39,040 You know, I didn't like try to come up with the idea 275 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:43,680 I didn't try and come up with things to add to my visualization just for the sake of it 276 00:20:43,680 --> 00:20:49,600 I just had it come to me naturally and that's what I'm doing for the rest of my visualization. That's not that's why I'm not 277 00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:54,440 adding in like the right side of my beach or any other other thing 278 00:20:56,520 --> 00:20:58,520 Because I want to I 279 00:20:58,520 --> 00:21:02,920 Want it to like be natural if that makes sense 280 00:21:03,520 --> 00:21:10,880 So that's pretty much what I'm doing with my visualization and I found that ever since I started going hard like going 281 00:21:11,600 --> 00:21:13,600 hardcore or 282 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:17,480 Locking in on my visualization and basically just focusing on it a lot 283 00:21:19,080 --> 00:21:22,340 Throughout my day, I'm starting to actually think about it a lot more 284 00:21:22,340 --> 00:21:25,640 I'm starting to think about my goals and I'm starting to actually 285 00:21:25,640 --> 00:21:27,640 I 286 00:21:27,680 --> 00:21:31,000 Change my actions because now I know that I have to 287 00:21:31,840 --> 00:21:38,600 Like I want this like this is what I desire and that's another thing I learned about 10x is easier than 2x 288 00:21:39,880 --> 00:21:41,880 Operate on a level of want 289 00:21:42,800 --> 00:21:44,800 like ever since I learned about 290 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:49,560 Wanting versus needing and how you should always be a wanter and not a neater 291 00:21:50,040 --> 00:21:53,720 I've been always operating under one because 292 00:21:53,720 --> 00:21:55,720 It's so important 293 00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:02,000 You things that you need is a scarcity mindset, but if you want things that means you create 294 00:22:02,920 --> 00:22:08,560 Like right now, I don't need the Hawaii. I don't need to live in Hawaii, but I want to 295 00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:14,200 So now I have to create and I have to add value and so now I'm getting more serious about 296 00:22:15,200 --> 00:22:17,200 content creation so 297 00:22:18,120 --> 00:22:20,120 the original kind of 298 00:22:20,120 --> 00:22:23,240 phrase that caused me to start 299 00:22:24,040 --> 00:22:25,520 podcasting was 300 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:32,600 from expert secrets by Russell Brunson and Russell said if you post daily for an entire year 301 00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:34,920 You'll never have to worry about money yet 302 00:22:35,160 --> 00:22:39,360 And so I just kind of started because I figured that if you just start 303 00:22:39,680 --> 00:22:44,920 Then you can figure it out along the way and get better along the way and then eventually you'll be able to 304 00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:47,880 actually make it and 305 00:22:47,880 --> 00:22:55,040 Throughout ever since then I've been seeing more and more confirmation of this for example. I just recently read in 306 00:22:56,600 --> 00:22:58,600 a book called 307 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:04,560 Create don't capture which I don't even think is released yet. I got it at funnehackin live as a pre-release 308 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:11,000 And so I've read half of it so far and it's actually really beneficial for me and 309 00:23:12,360 --> 00:23:16,200 In that he said there was someone that said a quote 310 00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:22,200 I don't remember who said this quote, but it's you can't steer a parked car and 311 00:23:25,400 --> 00:23:30,920 Instantly I made the connection to the fact that you have to start moving along 312 00:23:31,400 --> 00:23:37,080 Like cuz he was talking about just start creating content and then figure it out along the way 313 00:23:37,480 --> 00:23:39,920 Like you can't start steer a parked car 314 00:23:39,920 --> 00:23:45,560 Like you can't steer an empty channel that has no content 315 00:23:46,360 --> 00:23:47,800 If that makes any sense 316 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:53,600 but maybe there's some context that I'm missing because I don't even think that I'm making sense right now but to me I 317 00:23:53,600 --> 00:23:57,960 Mean it makes sense to me because I read the the book and I have some context, but 318 00:23:58,440 --> 00:24:03,440 That's pretty much it and I'm getting a lot more serious about 319 00:24:04,720 --> 00:24:06,720 the content creation because 320 00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:12,240 I'm okay, so there's this one this is another confirmation that I had when I was first starting 321 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:21,440 My podcast I was also going to the park is this was during summer and I go to the park with my friend and I'd be like I 322 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:27,960 Kind of like for the good like two or three weeks 323 00:24:29,120 --> 00:24:35,160 We were talking about like what we were doing. We'd always say what's your critical task and then we'd say it 324 00:24:35,160 --> 00:24:38,120 and then we'd say it and then we would achieve it but then 325 00:24:39,000 --> 00:24:42,760 After a few weeks of that I was like dude. I'm not doing anything for my business 326 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:45,160 like the only thing that I'm doing for my business is 327 00:24:45,600 --> 00:24:48,960 podcasting and then after a few weeks of that 328 00:24:49,720 --> 00:24:51,720 After like a few weeks after that 329 00:24:51,760 --> 00:24:53,160 He was like 330 00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:57,120 Are you gonna work on stuff for your business? I was like no, this is my business 331 00:24:57,800 --> 00:25:02,720 Like podcasting is my business and so that's when I realized like that I 332 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:03,960 I 333 00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:05,760 Had like this 334 00:25:05,760 --> 00:25:08,680 Suspicion that this is the most important thing that I can do 335 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,160 So I should focus all in on this 336 00:25:12,000 --> 00:25:15,200 and then I read in the 337 00:25:16,760 --> 00:25:22,480 Create don't capture book that it with my suspicion was instantly confirmed. He said 338 00:25:23,200 --> 00:25:25,200 This is your business like 339 00:25:25,400 --> 00:25:28,600 you like this is the most important thing that you do for your business because 340 00:25:28,600 --> 00:25:33,200 You can create your personal brand your personal channel and 341 00:25:33,800 --> 00:25:40,320 Then you don't even have to have a business because you have your personal channel and then you can make a business and then sell 342 00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:42,800 through your personal channel or 343 00:25:43,040 --> 00:25:45,400 If you get bored of that business you can create a new one 344 00:25:47,080 --> 00:25:49,080 But essentially 345 00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:53,480 So creating content is the most important thing for your business 346 00:25:53,480 --> 00:26:02,040 And so more and more I'm realizing that just how true Russell Brunson's statement was of if you post daily on your show 347 00:26:02,040 --> 00:26:04,040 You'll never have to worry about money again 348 00:26:07,360 --> 00:26:15,120 But I've also found that obviously I'm on episode 84 I think I 349 00:26:15,840 --> 00:26:17,680 don't have the 350 00:26:17,680 --> 00:26:21,560 episode title in front of me anymore because I switched to 351 00:26:21,560 --> 00:26:28,800 To a different recording software so I don't see the number. I'm on anymore, but I think I'm around episode 84 and 352 00:26:32,480 --> 00:26:36,920 I have started to create ticktocks and YouTube shorts 353 00:26:37,560 --> 00:26:44,280 Which I actually am very happy with the progress that I made because after like four days maybe of it 354 00:26:44,280 --> 00:26:49,480 I got 250 views on like three ticktocks in a row 355 00:26:49,480 --> 00:26:51,480 Which is awesome 356 00:26:52,040 --> 00:26:56,960 Because in create note capture he was saying that in the beginning you're not gonna have any views 357 00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:00,600 Like 200 views is a lot in the beginning and 358 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:06,240 Having one like or two likes is a lot in the beginning, but I had like 359 00:27:07,040 --> 00:27:10,200 two or three likes with 250 views 360 00:27:11,400 --> 00:27:13,880 So I'm doing very well. I think and 361 00:27:15,600 --> 00:27:17,600 Then there's another thing I 362 00:27:17,600 --> 00:27:22,120 Realized that I have to start scripting out my podcast 363 00:27:23,400 --> 00:27:29,240 Because there's a lot of times where I'm not okay, so first of all my 364 00:27:30,440 --> 00:27:35,560 Episodes, I'm pretty sure I'd never listen to them because I just don't want to waste the time 365 00:27:36,200 --> 00:27:41,800 Relisting to them, which is probably a bad idea because I could probably figure out what I'm doing bad, but 366 00:27:41,800 --> 00:27:50,040 I'm fairly certain that my podcasts are hard to follow and that's probably why most people don't listen to them 367 00:27:50,880 --> 00:27:52,400 because I 368 00:27:52,400 --> 00:27:58,920 Never script it so I kind of just say what comes to mind and since our minds are like naturally scattered 369 00:27:58,920 --> 00:28:04,880 I go back jump back and forth between subjects and so what I'm thinking is I have to start 370 00:28:05,400 --> 00:28:11,320 There's two things I have to start doing scripting out, which I'm not just gonna script out word for word 371 00:28:11,320 --> 00:28:16,640 I'm just gonna write down general bullet points and general notes, which I've actually done 372 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:21,040 Partially for this episode, but I didn't do enough. I just have 373 00:28:21,720 --> 00:28:23,720 general bullet points which 374 00:28:24,800 --> 00:28:29,040 The it was meditation and I said energy conversion box girls 375 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:32,560 Affirmation girls and then inner work and that's all I wrote down 376 00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:39,640 But that basically got me like the first 20 minutes of the episode 377 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:41,640 and that was just one topic and 378 00:28:43,400 --> 00:28:47,280 So but I had just spent like two minutes scripting that out 379 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,960 and so what I'm planning on doing is 380 00:28:52,040 --> 00:29:00,560 I'm actually recording another episode directly after this which is me tomorrow's episode which is Transurfing Principles part 10 the final part of the series 381 00:29:01,200 --> 00:29:03,200 so look out for that and 382 00:29:03,560 --> 00:29:05,680 That those are scripted like those are all 383 00:29:06,440 --> 00:29:07,960 um, I 384 00:29:07,960 --> 00:29:15,000 Have like a lot of notes for those like they're not word for word scripted, but there's a lot of notes in those and 385 00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:21,480 So that's tomorrow, but all week this week 386 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:31,000 Tomorrow is Tuesday as well as okay, so for me as a recording tomorrow is Tuesday and 387 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:38,400 And went the next day is Wednesday and my gym routine is three days on two days off and 388 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,760 I was I went to the gym on 389 00:29:43,680 --> 00:29:45,920 Saturday Sunday and today which is Monday 390 00:29:46,600 --> 00:29:48,880 So tomorrow and Wednesday I have off 391 00:29:48,920 --> 00:29:55,480 So I have like plenty of time after school and my plan is to get a jump on this new 392 00:29:55,480 --> 00:30:00,360 new routine this new schedule which I learned about in 393 00:30:01,320 --> 00:30:07,560 10x is easier than 2x. It's basically you have to rework your your work week to incorporate 394 00:30:08,120 --> 00:30:10,680 rest days focus days and buffer days and 395 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:16,200 I'd never had rest days. I'd never had rest days on purposely 396 00:30:16,840 --> 00:30:21,960 Like implemented in my work week. I just record every single day 397 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:26,520 daily, I just record daily, so I never have rest days, but 398 00:30:27,000 --> 00:30:31,400 What I think will actually help with my quality quality of episodes is 399 00:30:32,320 --> 00:30:35,000 to record like three episodes or 400 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:41,880 four episodes on Saturday and three episodes on Sunday and then the rest of the week 401 00:30:42,560 --> 00:30:44,560 just rest and 402 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:51,080 Prepare the scripts, so I'll spend like two or three days preparing the script 403 00:30:51,080 --> 00:30:52,360 on 404 00:30:52,360 --> 00:30:54,560 Monday and Tuesday. I'll probably 405 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:59,360 Prepare the script or no, I wouldn't even do it on those days. I'd probably do it like 406 00:31:01,360 --> 00:31:06,680 Thursday and Friday, I'm still kind of like sketching out this new routine that I'll do 407 00:31:07,600 --> 00:31:09,360 but essentially I 408 00:31:09,360 --> 00:31:14,920 My kind of general outline what I kind of want to do is Monday Tuesday rest day and 409 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:20,640 Then oh wait no Monday Tuesday and Wednesday rest day and 410 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:25,560 on those rest days, I'm gonna follow my normal routine, which is just 411 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:32,800 Reading I'm just gonna read on those days and I'm gonna take I'm gonna start taking a lot of notes while I'm reading again 412 00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:37,600 because that's what I did on trans surfing and I was able to get like ten episodes of 413 00:31:38,480 --> 00:31:43,640 Just pure trans surfing principles episodes, so I'm just gonna take a lot of notes from my books 414 00:31:43,640 --> 00:31:48,600 I'm gonna start doing that and then I'll do that Monday Tuesday Wednesday and 415 00:31:49,080 --> 00:31:53,320 Then on Thursday and Friday. I'll do read also like I read every day 416 00:31:53,960 --> 00:31:57,600 So I'll read also, but this time I'm gonna be 417 00:31:59,480 --> 00:32:04,120 In the afternoon, I'm gonna be focusing on creating scripts for 418 00:32:04,520 --> 00:32:12,000 My episodes so Thursday and Friday will be scripting days and I'll script out seven episodes total on those two days 419 00:32:12,000 --> 00:32:13,680 and 420 00:32:13,680 --> 00:32:18,080 This is gonna be seven hours worth of content because each episode is one hour 421 00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:21,760 So then on 422 00:32:23,560 --> 00:32:26,040 Saturday and Sunday, I'm gonna lock in and 423 00:32:27,440 --> 00:32:31,480 Saturday I'll record four episodes and Sunday I'll record three episodes 424 00:32:31,960 --> 00:32:36,080 Which that means that I'm gonna have four hours of recording on Saturday 425 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:43,280 And I'm gonna meditate in between every single one so I can have high quality and that's kind of my plan 426 00:32:43,320 --> 00:32:47,680 But it'll probably change with time because I'm not sure how like 427 00:32:48,360 --> 00:32:54,200 How that will turn out with the scripts. I'm not sure if I'll be able to even read enough content to 428 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:56,920 record seven hours of 429 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,160 Scripts, I don't even know 430 00:32:59,520 --> 00:33:04,840 But for the first week since I want to maintain I don't want to not record the first week 431 00:33:04,840 --> 00:33:10,720 so I'm gonna continue to record daily episodes as well as 432 00:33:11,920 --> 00:33:16,120 Maintain these like as well as create the script for future episodes 433 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:24,960 Which the first week's gonna be tough but after that is it'll be free free flow from there and 434 00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:28,320 This will be very 435 00:33:28,720 --> 00:33:30,720 beneficial because I 436 00:33:30,720 --> 00:33:38,440 Realize that rest is so so important like I rest for lifting like I know that rest is important for lifting 437 00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:43,760 But for work, it's extremely important. I learned that in 10x as easy as the 2x and 438 00:33:44,280 --> 00:33:48,440 There's one other thing that I was thinking about and I was thinking like I 439 00:33:49,640 --> 00:33:54,880 Was my mind was just talking to itself and my mind asked him. Why don't you implement anything from? 440 00:33:54,880 --> 00:34:02,280 The first read on or from 10x is you than 2x and I like responded I was like because I 441 00:34:03,280 --> 00:34:06,280 Never implement the first time the first time is just to get 442 00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:11,680 Like an idea of reading it and then the second time I read it through I go crazy 443 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:16,880 You know and implementing and that's kind of what I did with trans surfing the first time I didn't implement 444 00:34:16,880 --> 00:34:20,560 I barely implemented anything like just simple things and 445 00:34:20,560 --> 00:34:24,760 Then the second time I implemented like a bunch of stuff 446 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:28,400 And that's kind of what I plan to do with 10x 447 00:34:28,960 --> 00:34:34,760 Because I feel like it's a lot harder like it requires a lot more willpower to implement things 448 00:34:35,320 --> 00:34:38,160 Just by getting the fresh knowledge and it's fresh to you 449 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:45,040 Versus when you let it settle in after the first read through and then you read it a second time so it's strengthened 450 00:34:45,040 --> 00:34:51,800 It requires a lot less willpower because now it's part of your world view now you like choose to do it and you want to do it now 451 00:34:53,000 --> 00:34:58,360 So maybe it's an easy way out, but I feel like it's a lot better and it's it's worked for me. So 452 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:01,000 That's what I'm doing 453 00:35:02,280 --> 00:35:05,440 But I want to talk more about meditation 454 00:35:07,360 --> 00:35:10,400 The inner work let's not let's talk about inner work 455 00:35:11,360 --> 00:35:13,360 what I found is 456 00:35:13,360 --> 00:35:16,600 so I've been talking about this a lot lately the difference between 457 00:35:17,720 --> 00:35:19,720 hyper successful people and 458 00:35:20,320 --> 00:35:22,320 average mediocre people is 459 00:35:23,320 --> 00:35:25,320 Just in their head 460 00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:31,080 Like if you there's a lot of millionaires that have average physiques average health average 461 00:35:31,400 --> 00:35:35,280 like looks and appearances and I saw this at 462 00:35:35,280 --> 00:35:42,160 Funnel Hacking Live like a lot of people just looked like average normal ordinary people and but they were like millionaires 463 00:35:43,080 --> 00:35:50,660 So what that means is the only difference like they the only difference is up here in the head in their mind 464 00:35:51,720 --> 00:35:56,720 One they have all the knowledge like they know how to do things because they read a lot of books 465 00:35:57,440 --> 00:35:58,480 to 466 00:35:58,480 --> 00:36:03,080 They did implement, but that requires like inner work 467 00:36:03,080 --> 00:36:09,560 The amount of inner work required for going into entrepreneurship is immense 468 00:36:11,480 --> 00:36:15,480 So they implemented so then they have the experience and they know how to do it 469 00:36:17,320 --> 00:36:25,320 What three probably the most important is the inner work that they did which is all about their worldview their mindset their attitude 470 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:28,640 everything that goes on in their life and 471 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:35,880 I go so far to say then that that's the foundation like I truly believe that you're 472 00:36:37,080 --> 00:36:39,080 Like everything that goes on in your mind 473 00:36:40,640 --> 00:36:47,000 Everything inside your mind your thoughts emotions attitudes worldview mindset is 474 00:36:47,800 --> 00:36:49,800 all the foundation to life 475 00:36:50,760 --> 00:36:52,640 like whatever 476 00:36:52,640 --> 00:36:54,640 whatever level of 477 00:36:54,640 --> 00:37:00,480 World view you have correlates with whatever level life you have 478 00:37:01,360 --> 00:37:07,480 so if you and I talked about this in probably my best episode that I've ever recorded and 479 00:37:08,120 --> 00:37:10,120 Pretty sure it was episodes 73 480 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,080 Or 74.
