1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,560 How long does it take to get out? 2 00:00:04,060 --> 00:00:09,060 So, we're in the rat race right now. 3 00:00:09,100 --> 00:00:11,200 I included, I'm in the rat race, 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:15,440 and I'm just wondering how long will it take 5 00:00:15,440 --> 00:00:16,860 to get out, to escape? 6 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:23,420 Because right now my plan is to work on my podcast 7 00:00:23,420 --> 00:00:28,160 and have that be the foundation to my future business. 8 00:00:28,160 --> 00:00:33,160 And then I'll be able to make money and escape 9 00:00:33,540 --> 00:00:37,040 in that regard and through those means. 10 00:00:38,580 --> 00:00:43,580 And there's this one concept that I learned about 11 00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:46,020 in Rally Transurfing. 12 00:00:46,020 --> 00:00:51,020 And initially, I heard of this, 13 00:00:54,900 --> 00:00:56,160 it's called manifestation. 14 00:00:56,160 --> 00:01:00,920 I heard of this from my sister a long time ago, 15 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,760 probably one year ago, two years ago. 16 00:01:05,280 --> 00:01:08,760 And I did not believe it. 17 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:12,060 My sister believed it and she said, 18 00:01:13,160 --> 00:01:16,460 Sheila told me about it, I didn't believe it. 19 00:01:18,980 --> 00:01:20,960 And then it wasn't until I read Transurfing 20 00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:23,000 when I actually started to believe it 21 00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,800 and then I actually did it. 22 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:30,800 And I visualized and it came true, 23 00:01:31,080 --> 00:01:32,640 which was Funnel Hacking Live. 24 00:01:34,280 --> 00:01:38,280 And now I'm visualizing something much, much greater, 25 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:43,280 much more detailed and much further away from my life, 26 00:01:44,460 --> 00:01:49,460 my current lifeline, which it is basically me being free, 27 00:01:52,560 --> 00:01:55,640 living in Hawaii on my own. 28 00:01:55,640 --> 00:02:00,640 And having my own private beach, my own house, 29 00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,640 the beach I can surf in those waves, 30 00:02:08,560 --> 00:02:11,520 it's a pretty elaborate visualization. 31 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:14,520 And I've talked about pretty much the entire thing 32 00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,720 in past episode. 33 00:02:18,880 --> 00:02:21,720 And so I've been really locking in on that. 34 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:26,440 And yesterday, I remember I was biking home 35 00:02:26,440 --> 00:02:29,560 and everything just felt like a dream. 36 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:32,280 Everything kind of felt strange. 37 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:36,920 And then today I didn't have that feeling. 38 00:02:36,920 --> 00:02:41,680 So what that tells me is not to get discouraged 39 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:46,680 because my old way of thinking, my old patterns of thinking 40 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:50,360 would automatically say, oh, I was so close 41 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:52,200 and now I just like lost progress. 42 00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:55,920 Like I was actually, like yesterday I was awake 43 00:02:55,920 --> 00:02:59,120 of like a lot during that bike ride. 44 00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:02,240 I was controlling my thoughts very well. 45 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,580 I was just everything was going very well. 46 00:03:07,320 --> 00:03:09,760 And I, in my old school of thought, 47 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,640 I would have just thought that I lost a lot of progress 48 00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:15,840 because today I wasn't really awake that much 49 00:03:15,840 --> 00:03:17,960 and today I was not. 50 00:03:17,960 --> 00:03:21,040 I didn't feel that sense of everything as a dream. 51 00:03:23,000 --> 00:03:26,880 So my old, I would have thought that it was a, 52 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:30,640 I would have thought that I lost progress in that regard, 53 00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:35,640 but I can already tell that I'm like in this sense, 54 00:03:36,200 --> 00:03:41,200 I can already tell that I am changing my like thought patterns 55 00:03:41,600 --> 00:03:45,440 because instead of thinking that I was losing progress, 56 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:50,440 I instantly like created this elaborate like story in my head 57 00:03:50,880 --> 00:03:54,960 or explanation in my head as to how I actually am 58 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,240 making progress. 59 00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:00,360 And the explanation is irrelevant. 60 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,120 It doesn't really matter, but I want to tell you, 61 00:04:03,120 --> 00:04:04,360 just keep going. 62 00:04:04,360 --> 00:04:06,940 Like that's one of the biggest lessons 63 00:04:06,940 --> 00:04:10,720 that I've learned over the past year. 64 00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,200 Just keep going. 65 00:04:12,200 --> 00:04:16,920 And it was actually confirmed because someone 66 00:04:16,920 --> 00:04:20,160 at Funal Hacking Live, when I went to Funal Hacking Live 67 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:24,400 a couple of weeks ago, someone actually said, 68 00:04:24,400 --> 00:04:27,720 I asked him, and this is a successful entrepreneur 69 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:32,720 that I asked, he, I asked him what tip or suggestion 70 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:37,960 or any words of wisdom do you have for me? 71 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:42,960 And he said, never stop. And so that, 72 00:04:44,200 --> 00:04:48,280 he was talking about business, but I really believe that 73 00:04:48,280 --> 00:04:52,360 he also meant everything else, like self-improvement, 74 00:04:52,360 --> 00:04:55,840 spirituality, focusing on controlling your thoughts, 75 00:04:55,840 --> 00:04:58,440 never stop any of that stuff. 76 00:04:58,440 --> 00:05:01,400 Never stop getting better, never stop progressing. 77 00:05:01,400 --> 00:05:06,400 And so I, today I actually came to the, 78 00:05:09,920 --> 00:05:12,240 I had an epiphany today. 79 00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:17,240 So I woke up this morning, kind of my alarm woke me up 80 00:05:18,000 --> 00:05:22,000 this morning, which is abnormal because usually I wake up 81 00:05:22,000 --> 00:05:25,080 a few minutes before my alarm, but this morning 82 00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:28,480 my alarm woke me up and so I was already a little bit, 83 00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:32,240 like not very woken up very well. 84 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,120 I was just a little tired, not really tired, 85 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:40,120 but it, depending on how optimal my sleep was 86 00:05:40,880 --> 00:05:44,920 the night before or what time I wake up naturally, 87 00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:47,560 or whether I naturally or not wake up, 88 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:52,360 wake up naturally or not, depending on all those factors, 89 00:05:52,360 --> 00:05:57,360 my, the all those factors affect kind of how much control 90 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:59,200 I have over my thoughts that day, 91 00:05:59,200 --> 00:06:02,700 or how like out of control my thoughts are. 92 00:06:04,480 --> 00:06:07,720 So this morning I woke up and my thoughts were not 93 00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:08,600 controlled at all. 94 00:06:08,600 --> 00:06:12,560 I was, I was basically falling asleep, 95 00:06:12,560 --> 00:06:14,520 not physically falling asleep, 96 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,040 but my consciousness was falling asleep often. 97 00:06:18,040 --> 00:06:21,880 And so I just went through the whole day, 98 00:06:21,880 --> 00:06:26,240 kind of sleeping by, like just, 99 00:06:26,240 --> 00:06:29,800 my consciousness was asleep the whole time basically. 100 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,760 And now I was waking myself up a lot, 101 00:06:31,760 --> 00:06:35,440 but I could tell that I was like not focused much. 102 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:41,880 And then today the epiphany that I came by is that 103 00:06:41,880 --> 00:06:44,240 as long as I just keep going, 104 00:06:44,240 --> 00:06:48,320 like I had a cool experience during my meditation 105 00:06:48,320 --> 00:06:51,600 the other day and I keep on having an expectation 106 00:06:51,600 --> 00:06:53,400 that I'm gonna have another cool experience 107 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:56,640 or I'm gonna get better and better. 108 00:06:56,640 --> 00:06:59,760 But I, those are only holding me back, those expectations. 109 00:06:59,760 --> 00:07:03,520 And I just gotta keep going, keep moving forward 110 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:06,080 and just have patience. 111 00:07:07,280 --> 00:07:11,680 And actually there's one thing. 112 00:07:12,740 --> 00:07:16,600 I'm having a lot of patience with my slide 113 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:19,360 because I know that I've been doing it 114 00:07:19,360 --> 00:07:23,320 for quite some time now, this visualization. 115 00:07:23,320 --> 00:07:25,440 Maybe like a month or two, I don't know. 116 00:07:26,480 --> 00:07:31,480 And what I found, what I discovered is, 117 00:07:32,600 --> 00:07:34,520 well actually no, what I realized is that 118 00:07:34,520 --> 00:07:36,920 I was patient for this entire month. 119 00:07:36,920 --> 00:07:41,920 Like let's just say for explanation sake, argument sake, 120 00:07:42,440 --> 00:07:44,920 I have been doing my slide for one month. 121 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:51,360 So this whole time I've been very actively running my slide 122 00:07:51,360 --> 00:07:56,320 every single day and for many minutes, 123 00:07:56,320 --> 00:07:58,040 probably even an hour every day. 124 00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:01,960 So I've been extremely patient for this whole month. 125 00:08:02,840 --> 00:08:07,840 And since the world is a mirror and you send your image, 126 00:08:08,160 --> 00:08:12,040 you actively create your reality using your thoughts, 127 00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:16,880 but the mirror has a delay. 128 00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,800 So you basically have to hold your thoughts up 129 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:23,800 for a little bit of time and then it'll start materializing. 130 00:08:25,600 --> 00:08:29,200 And so this whole first month, I'd been patient. 131 00:08:30,120 --> 00:08:33,400 And honestly, the beginning is the hardest 132 00:08:33,400 --> 00:08:35,880 because you have to be patient and just keep doing it 133 00:08:35,880 --> 00:08:38,080 even though you're not seeing any results. 134 00:08:39,000 --> 00:08:41,240 So I've been doing it for the whole first month, 135 00:08:41,240 --> 00:08:44,620 very patient and what I realized, 136 00:08:44,620 --> 00:08:49,260 I wasn't seeing any results yet I was still doing it. 137 00:08:50,780 --> 00:08:53,260 And then the moment I see results, 138 00:08:53,260 --> 00:08:58,300 my mind had a tendency to think that I was losing progress, 139 00:08:58,300 --> 00:09:02,380 but then I reminded myself that that's like the first results. 140 00:09:02,380 --> 00:09:06,420 Like that is exactly what my mind had the tendency 141 00:09:06,420 --> 00:09:11,420 to get demotivated even though that is insane. 142 00:09:11,420 --> 00:09:16,420 Like I got results, my first glance of results. 143 00:09:17,820 --> 00:09:20,340 And those results were in two forms. 144 00:09:20,340 --> 00:09:25,180 Like the other day I was, I had that meditation, 145 00:09:25,180 --> 00:09:26,860 even though it was just a brief moment, 146 00:09:26,860 --> 00:09:28,660 that's still considered results. 147 00:09:30,500 --> 00:09:32,380 Yesterday when I was biking, 148 00:09:32,380 --> 00:09:36,900 I was like extremely conscious that is results. 149 00:09:36,900 --> 00:09:41,820 And the biggest result of them all was yesterday 150 00:09:41,820 --> 00:09:45,060 after I finished recording the podcast. 151 00:09:45,060 --> 00:09:47,660 So let me give some context real quick. 152 00:09:48,740 --> 00:09:53,740 I have been podcasting for like three months now maybe. 153 00:09:58,380 --> 00:10:01,020 It's been, I'm on episode 93 right now. 154 00:10:01,020 --> 00:10:06,020 I believe it's 93 and pretty much the whole time, 155 00:10:07,540 --> 00:10:10,940 like the first month I had four people listening, 156 00:10:10,940 --> 00:10:13,620 the second month like five people listening, 157 00:10:13,620 --> 00:10:15,940 and then the third month, or no, 158 00:10:15,940 --> 00:10:18,340 the second month was like seven people were listening. 159 00:10:18,340 --> 00:10:21,060 So I had seven people listening to every single episode. 160 00:10:22,420 --> 00:10:27,420 And then going into month three, October, like right now, 161 00:10:27,420 --> 00:10:32,420 I was at seven and then I dropped down to six, 162 00:10:34,100 --> 00:10:35,740 and then I dropped down to five. 163 00:10:36,980 --> 00:10:41,980 And pretty much my daily downloads leading up to this point 164 00:10:43,860 --> 00:10:47,900 was maybe like six, five to seven, 165 00:10:47,900 --> 00:10:49,740 five to seven downloads every day, 166 00:10:49,740 --> 00:10:52,060 usually around seven downloads, 167 00:10:52,060 --> 00:10:57,060 six or seven downloads every day. But then last night, 168 00:11:01,540 --> 00:11:04,540 I checked my analytics after I was done editing 169 00:11:04,540 --> 00:11:07,180 all of the episode from yesterday. 170 00:11:08,700 --> 00:11:12,100 And I was just expecting to see like seven downloads, 171 00:11:12,100 --> 00:11:17,100 like my normal, I was kind of hoping to see that I was, 172 00:11:17,180 --> 00:11:19,220 since I dropped subscribers, 173 00:11:19,220 --> 00:11:22,460 like two people stopped listening, 174 00:11:22,460 --> 00:11:25,620 I was hoping to see that I got like a subscriber back. 175 00:11:26,940 --> 00:11:29,900 But what I saw was actually crazy. 176 00:11:29,900 --> 00:11:34,180 I saw my daily downloads, which is normally like seven, 177 00:11:34,180 --> 00:11:37,860 I had 57 daily downloads. 178 00:11:37,860 --> 00:11:41,580 When I saw that number, I instantly like my stomach dropped. 179 00:11:41,580 --> 00:11:45,320 I was like, oh my goodness, like that was insane. 180 00:11:45,320 --> 00:11:50,080 I was like scared, not even, I wasn't scared, 181 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:52,280 but I was like amazed. 182 00:11:53,640 --> 00:11:54,880 I was in shock. 183 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,200 And so I was like really excited about that. 184 00:11:59,200 --> 00:12:04,200 And then I went to bed and today I was really excited 185 00:12:05,200 --> 00:12:08,200 to see how many of those 57, 186 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:11,360 like I was excited to see if I'd have like 57 downloads 187 00:12:11,360 --> 00:12:12,880 again today. 188 00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:16,200 And so I was gonna wait until after the episode 189 00:12:16,200 --> 00:12:19,280 to check it, but I couldn't help myself. 190 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,880 And I checked it before this episode 191 00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,400 and guess how many downloads I had? 192 00:12:24,400 --> 00:12:28,300 Six, six downloads. 193 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:34,240 So that, I would have the tendency to be, 194 00:12:34,240 --> 00:12:39,240 like demotivated after that before. 195 00:12:40,680 --> 00:12:43,080 And honestly, I was a little demotivated 196 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:44,320 that I saw it six today. 197 00:12:46,120 --> 00:12:50,120 But that's the same as what I had two days ago. 198 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:54,000 Six, I've always had six, six downloads every day. 199 00:12:55,280 --> 00:13:00,280 And I had my first sign that first sign of success yesterday, 200 00:13:00,280 --> 00:13:03,800 57 downloads in one day, the most I've ever had. 201 00:13:03,800 --> 00:13:07,280 The most I've ever had before that was like eight, maybe. 202 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,960 So that is like the third sign of success that I've had. 203 00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,440 And so once you start seeing those signs of success, 204 00:13:18,440 --> 00:13:20,080 you have to keep going. 205 00:13:20,080 --> 00:13:22,280 Like that is the motivation. 206 00:13:22,280 --> 00:13:25,480 So now I'm back like to six downloads. 207 00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:27,280 So I don't think any of those people 208 00:13:27,280 --> 00:13:30,680 that listened yesterday, maybe it was just one person 209 00:13:30,680 --> 00:13:33,480 that listened like 60 times. 210 00:13:33,480 --> 00:13:37,080 And by the way, I'm recording this episode 211 00:13:37,080 --> 00:13:40,080 when episode 86 just went live. 212 00:13:40,080 --> 00:13:45,080 So this episode's being recorded on the 18th of October, 213 00:13:45,080 --> 00:13:45,920 2023. 214 00:13:47,160 --> 00:13:51,360 So everything, like you guys are listening a week behind. 215 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:53,960 So by the time this episode releases, 216 00:13:53,960 --> 00:13:57,440 who knows, maybe I'll be back up to 50 downloads a day. 217 00:13:57,440 --> 00:13:59,640 Maybe I'll be up, I mean, not back up. 218 00:13:59,640 --> 00:14:02,840 Maybe I will get 50 downloads a day again, 219 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,160 or maybe not, I don't know. 220 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,440 And so I like saw that 221 00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:10,240 and I was like thinking about that all night. 222 00:14:10,240 --> 00:14:12,920 I was so excited to like go into bed. 223 00:14:12,920 --> 00:14:16,120 I kind of, it took me a little while to get to bed. 224 00:14:16,120 --> 00:14:19,840 I had to like stop myself from feeling excitement. 225 00:14:19,840 --> 00:14:22,040 So I was like, I'm gonna go back to bed. 226 00:14:22,040 --> 00:14:24,920 Myself from feeling excitement, so I could go to bed. 227 00:14:26,240 --> 00:14:29,160 And then I was thinking about it more 228 00:14:29,160 --> 00:14:31,320 and there's one thing. 229 00:14:31,320 --> 00:14:34,040 When I first started, like when I first decided 230 00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:37,640 to start this podcast, it was cause I read in a book, 231 00:14:37,640 --> 00:14:39,800 Expert Secrets, Russell Brunson said, 232 00:14:40,800 --> 00:14:45,480 if you post daily on your show for an entire year, 233 00:14:46,320 --> 00:14:49,440 you will find your voice as well 234 00:14:49,440 --> 00:14:52,080 as you will never have to worry about money again. 235 00:14:53,600 --> 00:14:55,920 So I didn't really care about the finding your voice 236 00:14:55,920 --> 00:14:57,480 and I just cared about never having to worry 237 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,840 about money again. 238 00:14:58,840 --> 00:15:01,520 And it seemed easy enough to post daily, 239 00:15:01,520 --> 00:15:02,960 so I just decided to do it. 240 00:15:04,200 --> 00:15:08,120 And I have not experienced any monetary gain 241 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:12,360 out of this podcast, yet I don't need to, 242 00:15:12,360 --> 00:15:14,800 or I obviously I want the monetary value, 243 00:15:14,800 --> 00:15:17,920 but the most valuable piece of it 244 00:15:17,920 --> 00:15:19,720 was me finding my voice so far. 245 00:15:21,120 --> 00:15:24,240 And yes, I will be finding my voice more and more 246 00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:28,360 throughout like in the upcoming months 247 00:15:28,360 --> 00:15:30,400 as I keep posting daily. 248 00:15:32,600 --> 00:15:35,800 But like just 93 episodes in, 249 00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:39,560 and I already have gotten like the most valuable 250 00:15:39,560 --> 00:15:41,000 impact on my growth. 251 00:15:41,000 --> 00:15:43,920 Just finding my voice and actually being able 252 00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:48,280 to speak more fluidly and effectively. 253 00:15:49,400 --> 00:15:54,400 So the podcast, I'm 93 episodes in, 254 00:15:55,000 --> 00:16:00,000 and I remember my first milestone was when I got like episode 10. 255 00:16:00,760 --> 00:16:02,760 When I recorded episode 10, that was awesome 256 00:16:02,760 --> 00:16:05,600 because that was my first double digits. 257 00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,640 And then the second milestone was episode 21, 258 00:16:09,640 --> 00:16:12,480 which once I hit episode 21, that was an awesome moment 259 00:16:12,480 --> 00:16:16,320 because I had heard a statistic that said, 260 00:16:16,320 --> 00:16:20,240 once you reach episode 21, you are now in the top 1% 261 00:16:20,240 --> 00:16:22,600 of all podcasts in the world. 262 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:27,200 Because 99% of podcasters stop posting 263 00:16:27,200 --> 00:16:29,720 before they reach 21 episodes. 264 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:36,960 So I'm considered top 1% now, once I reached episode 21. 265 00:16:36,960 --> 00:16:41,960 And then the next kind of milestone that I got 266 00:16:42,840 --> 00:16:45,680 was episode 50, which it wasn't really that big 267 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:48,480 of a milestone because I didn't really care too much to it. 268 00:16:48,480 --> 00:16:51,560 I was kind of in the grind at that time. 269 00:16:51,560 --> 00:16:55,240 And then I kind of forgot about like milestones. 270 00:16:56,400 --> 00:16:59,000 And then at Funnel Hacking Live, the same person 271 00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:00,640 that said, never stop. 272 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:04,640 He also told me about his podcast. 273 00:17:04,640 --> 00:17:08,480 He had recorded 100 episodes on his podcast. 274 00:17:08,480 --> 00:17:11,200 And then he stopped for like a long time 275 00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:15,600 and he hasn't recorded since, but he got to 100 episodes. 276 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:20,600 And as a result, his podcast was like fairly popular 277 00:17:21,560 --> 00:17:23,380 once he got to 100 episodes. 278 00:17:25,560 --> 00:17:30,040 And so once I heard that and he said that, 279 00:17:30,040 --> 00:17:32,160 he told me about a quote, Seth Rogen 280 00:17:32,160 --> 00:17:34,560 that I've actually heard before. 281 00:17:34,560 --> 00:17:38,240 Seth Rogen goes on any podcast, 282 00:17:38,240 --> 00:17:42,600 he'll be the guest on any podcast under one condition. 283 00:17:42,600 --> 00:17:46,440 That show has reached 100 episodes at least. 284 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:49,600 And that shows that they're committed in the long term 285 00:17:49,600 --> 00:17:51,880 and they're in it for like the long game 286 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,780 and they're actually serious. 287 00:17:55,480 --> 00:17:58,960 And so all of those dots connected 288 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:01,840 and I found my next milestone, episode 100 289 00:18:01,840 --> 00:18:06,840 because I kind of correlated episode 100 with success. 290 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:10,280 Like once I reach episode 100, I'll start to see some success. 291 00:18:10,280 --> 00:18:15,280 And I'd reached my, I have like achieved my first, 292 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:20,160 or seen my first spark of hope yesterday 293 00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:22,880 when I checked those analytics, 57, 294 00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:25,760 which to be honest, 57 downloads in one day 295 00:18:25,760 --> 00:18:28,440 is not that much in the grand scheme of things, 296 00:18:28,440 --> 00:18:33,440 but it said that I had like a 400% increase 297 00:18:33,560 --> 00:18:35,280 from the day before. 298 00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:39,040 So that's a lot, like that 400% in growth is a lot. 299 00:18:39,040 --> 00:18:41,680 57 in the grand scheme of things is not that much, 300 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:45,160 but in comparison to seven is a lot. 301 00:18:47,800 --> 00:18:52,800 And so that was my first kind of spark of like success 302 00:18:52,960 --> 00:18:55,820 or shine or whatever. 303 00:18:55,820 --> 00:19:00,820 So now my like ever since I got home from Funalaki Live, 304 00:19:01,700 --> 00:19:06,540 my new goal or my next milestone was 100 episodes. 305 00:19:06,540 --> 00:19:10,180 And I am actually one week away 306 00:19:10,180 --> 00:19:14,460 because once I'm done recording this episode 307 00:19:14,460 --> 00:19:19,460 in one week from today, so next Wednesday, 308 00:19:20,380 --> 00:19:24,340 I'll be on episode, or I'll have recorded 100 episodes, 309 00:19:24,340 --> 00:19:26,300 which means that I'll have achieved the milestone 310 00:19:26,300 --> 00:19:30,620 in real time, but it won't be in two weeks 311 00:19:30,620 --> 00:19:33,620 when I actually achieve it 312 00:19:33,620 --> 00:19:37,580 because I record seven episodes ahead of schedule. 313 00:19:38,860 --> 00:19:40,980 So it doesn't post until the next week. 314 00:19:44,240 --> 00:19:45,820 So those are my milestones right now. 315 00:19:45,820 --> 00:19:47,820 Once I get to episode 100, 316 00:19:47,820 --> 00:19:50,060 then I'll see what is going on. 317 00:19:50,060 --> 00:19:51,860 Like that's kind of my milestone to push forward. 318 00:19:51,860 --> 00:19:56,860 And obviously I'm gonna keep recording for like every day. 319 00:19:57,180 --> 00:19:58,900 I'm gonna go past episode 100, 320 00:19:58,900 --> 00:20:01,400 but that's kind of like my next milestone. 321 00:20:01,400 --> 00:20:04,900 I'm not gonna worry about analytics too much. 322 00:20:04,900 --> 00:20:06,300 I'm still gonna check my analytics, 323 00:20:06,300 --> 00:20:09,780 but I'm not gonna worry about the fact 324 00:20:09,780 --> 00:20:12,940 that I'm not getting 50 downloads again 325 00:20:12,940 --> 00:20:16,260 because I already went through this, 326 00:20:16,260 --> 00:20:19,500 but just keep pushing forward. 327 00:20:19,500 --> 00:20:24,500 That's the biggest piece of advice that I can give. 328 00:20:25,660 --> 00:20:30,660 And I wanna give an overview of my life. 329 00:20:31,580 --> 00:20:35,020 So when I was a kid, I, in middle school, 330 00:20:36,100 --> 00:20:38,740 I always wanted hot lunch. 331 00:20:38,740 --> 00:20:42,020 That was the lunch that my school served. 332 00:20:42,020 --> 00:20:45,220 So I wanted hot lunch, but my mom always said 333 00:20:45,220 --> 00:20:49,860 that I had to pay for it with my own money if I wanted it. 334 00:20:49,860 --> 00:20:51,660 And I never wanted to do that, 335 00:20:51,660 --> 00:20:55,900 but my mom did say that I could just pack my lunch 336 00:20:55,900 --> 00:20:58,620 and she would like go to the store 337 00:20:58,620 --> 00:21:00,960 and buy food for me to pack. 338 00:21:02,820 --> 00:21:07,820 So I kind of had the entrepreneurial mindset. 339 00:21:09,540 --> 00:21:11,940 I didn't know about entrepreneurship back in the day, 340 00:21:11,940 --> 00:21:15,820 but I had the business mindset where I was like, 341 00:21:15,820 --> 00:21:18,020 oh, this is an issue that I have. 342 00:21:18,020 --> 00:21:21,420 My mom can buy stuff for me at school 343 00:21:21,420 --> 00:21:23,220 or to bring to school. 344 00:21:23,220 --> 00:21:26,700 So what I did was I asked my friends 345 00:21:26,700 --> 00:21:29,940 and I noticed that a lot of my friends like eating chips, 346 00:21:29,940 --> 00:21:34,020 like Lay's, Fritos, Doritos, all that stuff. 347 00:21:34,020 --> 00:21:39,020 So I started getting my mom to buy a whole box 348 00:21:39,020 --> 00:21:44,020 like a big box of party sized chips 349 00:21:47,580 --> 00:21:50,980 or not party sized, but snack sized chip bags. 350 00:21:50,980 --> 00:21:55,580 It was just a whole box of just chips at Costco. 351 00:21:55,580 --> 00:21:56,940 And so my mom would buy that 352 00:21:56,940 --> 00:21:59,900 and I would just bring like three bags of chips to school 353 00:22:00,780 --> 00:22:01,620 every day. 354 00:22:03,100 --> 00:22:08,100 And I would trade like one chip for a hot lunch 355 00:22:08,100 --> 00:22:11,940 and then depending on if that person was a regular customer, 356 00:22:11,940 --> 00:22:14,580 I would make a deal where they would do, 357 00:22:14,580 --> 00:22:16,740 they would give it to me every single day 358 00:22:16,740 --> 00:22:18,380 and I would do two chips every day. 359 00:22:18,380 --> 00:22:20,360 So I'd give them two chips every day 360 00:22:20,360 --> 00:22:22,340 for hot lunch guaranteed. 361 00:22:22,340 --> 00:22:25,420 But for normal people that were not regulars, 362 00:22:25,420 --> 00:22:28,060 I would say like one chip for a hot lunch. 363 00:22:28,060 --> 00:22:30,100 And people took it like a lot of the days 364 00:22:30,100 --> 00:22:32,700 I wouldn't just get one hot lunch. 365 00:22:32,700 --> 00:22:36,660 I would go to my table with like three hot lunches 366 00:22:36,660 --> 00:22:38,180 and I would just eat them all. 367 00:22:38,180 --> 00:22:39,860 Like, and that was like, that was life. 368 00:22:39,860 --> 00:22:41,380 I'm not even gonna lie. 369 00:22:41,380 --> 00:22:46,260 And then I like expanded to like apple sauce pouches. 370 00:22:46,260 --> 00:22:50,380 There was these like plastic apple sauce pouches 371 00:22:50,380 --> 00:22:54,100 and I traded those and like life was great. 372 00:22:54,100 --> 00:22:57,140 And then I kind of, and then I didn't do that anymore 373 00:22:57,140 --> 00:23:00,940 because I went to high school and then COVID happened, 374 00:23:00,940 --> 00:23:02,180 the lockdown happened. 375 00:23:02,180 --> 00:23:07,180 And then I just started packing my own lunch 376 00:23:07,620 --> 00:23:11,260 at like four in high school. 377 00:23:11,260 --> 00:23:12,460 So I stopped doing that. 378 00:23:14,140 --> 00:23:17,700 But honestly, I had a reason why I was gonna tell you 379 00:23:17,700 --> 00:23:18,820 all this story. 380 00:23:20,140 --> 00:23:22,180 Oh yeah, okay. 381 00:23:22,180 --> 00:23:23,880 That's like context. 382 00:23:25,620 --> 00:23:30,380 And then, so during high school, 383 00:23:30,380 --> 00:23:32,060 I've talked about this story as well. 384 00:23:32,060 --> 00:23:34,180 I have always played soccer all my life. 385 00:23:34,180 --> 00:23:39,180 And then I wanted to play on the high school team. 386 00:23:39,740 --> 00:23:44,740 So I tried out first one year and I got cut. 387 00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:45,940 I got cut. 388 00:23:45,940 --> 00:23:47,220 So I didn't make it. 389 00:23:47,220 --> 00:23:50,100 And then I was like, oh, I actually have to train for this 390 00:23:50,100 --> 00:23:51,900 because people are way better than me 391 00:23:51,900 --> 00:23:53,180 and everyone else practices. 392 00:23:53,180 --> 00:23:55,900 That was, that's what I thought everyone else practiced. 393 00:23:57,340 --> 00:23:59,860 And then, so I started training. 394 00:23:59,860 --> 00:24:01,420 I didn't start training soccer. 395 00:24:01,420 --> 00:24:05,820 I started like just training, running and like cardio. 396 00:24:05,820 --> 00:24:08,840 And then sophomore year, I tried out again, got cut. 397 00:24:10,380 --> 00:24:15,020 So then I was like, oh, I'm not strong enough. 398 00:24:15,020 --> 00:24:16,420 So I have to start lifting. 399 00:24:16,420 --> 00:24:19,620 So I was lifting and then I was training cardio. 400 00:24:19,620 --> 00:24:24,620 And then I also realized that I needed to improve 401 00:24:25,120 --> 00:24:27,980 my soccer skills because I sucked at soccer. 402 00:24:27,980 --> 00:24:32,460 But I was like, good shape, but I didn't have like the skills. 403 00:24:33,340 --> 00:24:36,420 And so I started practicing the skills. 404 00:24:36,420 --> 00:24:39,980 And then going into junior year, 405 00:24:39,980 --> 00:24:42,760 I got injured right before trouts 406 00:24:42,760 --> 00:24:47,060 because I was doing so much that summer. 407 00:24:47,060 --> 00:24:49,500 And even like the months leading up to that summer, 408 00:24:49,500 --> 00:24:53,100 literally like more than eight months 409 00:24:53,100 --> 00:24:57,060 leading up to those tryouts. 410 00:24:57,060 --> 00:25:02,060 I was like going to the gym every morning, 411 00:25:03,620 --> 00:25:05,140 first thing in the morning. 412 00:25:05,140 --> 00:25:07,960 And then I'd like come home, eat, 413 00:25:07,960 --> 00:25:12,260 go to the park with soccer and train that. 414 00:25:12,260 --> 00:25:14,500 And then I'd like literally be at the park 415 00:25:14,500 --> 00:25:19,360 for hours every day, training cardio and my soccer skills. 416 00:25:19,360 --> 00:25:23,060 And then I would come home, take an ice bath every day. 417 00:25:24,580 --> 00:25:26,900 I'd always take like cold showers as well. 418 00:25:26,900 --> 00:25:28,020 Like I was serious. 419 00:25:28,020 --> 00:25:30,900 I was locked into training and then I got injured. 420 00:25:32,220 --> 00:25:34,100 It was not even that bad of an injury, 421 00:25:34,100 --> 00:25:36,020 but at the time I thought it was really bad. 422 00:25:36,020 --> 00:25:39,620 Like I couldn't walk, I couldn't bend my leg. 423 00:25:39,620 --> 00:25:43,100 So it was bad, but it was like, 424 00:25:43,100 --> 00:25:47,380 I could have healed in like literally a week or two weeks. 425 00:25:47,380 --> 00:25:50,780 And I did heal in two weeks, but I decided not to try it. 426 00:25:50,780 --> 00:25:53,620 Because I was in like a very low emotion 427 00:25:53,620 --> 00:25:56,740 or a very emotional state where like, 428 00:25:56,740 --> 00:25:59,220 I knew that I thought that everything was over. 429 00:25:59,220 --> 00:26:02,220 So I just didn't even bother to try out 430 00:26:02,220 --> 00:26:03,720 because I couldn't even walk. 431 00:26:05,660 --> 00:26:08,020 And honestly, that was probably the best decision 432 00:26:08,020 --> 00:26:13,020 I've ever made, even though I regretted it for like a year. 433 00:26:13,340 --> 00:26:14,300 Not a year. 434 00:26:14,300 --> 00:26:15,660 I regretted it for a few months 435 00:26:15,660 --> 00:26:18,060 because I knew that I could have made the team. 436 00:26:19,340 --> 00:26:21,620 Even though I was injured, 437 00:26:21,620 --> 00:26:22,980 I could have just talked to the coach 438 00:26:22,980 --> 00:26:25,180 and I would have made the team. 439 00:26:25,180 --> 00:26:30,020 But the reason why it was probably the best decision 440 00:26:30,020 --> 00:26:33,020 I've ever made was because during junior year 441 00:26:33,020 --> 00:26:35,660 is when I started getting into like serious self-improvement. 442 00:26:35,660 --> 00:26:38,140 That's when I started reading books. 443 00:26:38,140 --> 00:26:40,340 That's when I considered my start of self-improvement 444 00:26:40,340 --> 00:26:41,740 at the beginning of junior year. 445 00:26:41,740 --> 00:26:44,380 So at this time I was lifting every day 446 00:26:44,380 --> 00:26:48,900 and I kind of started slowly fade out soccer. 447 00:26:48,900 --> 00:26:51,140 Like I was still practicing soccer 448 00:26:51,140 --> 00:26:56,140 up until like that winter break. 449 00:26:56,580 --> 00:26:59,700 Like I remember winter break in junior year, 450 00:26:59,700 --> 00:27:03,660 I like literally was locked in. 451 00:27:03,660 --> 00:27:06,700 I was at home from school for like three weeks. 452 00:27:06,700 --> 00:27:11,700 So literally what I did was wake up, go to the gym 453 00:27:12,140 --> 00:27:16,620 and then after the gym, I would practice soccer in the gym. 454 00:27:16,620 --> 00:27:20,620 And I would like practice my juggling, all that stuff. 455 00:27:20,620 --> 00:27:23,220 And then I come home and read for the rest of the day. 456 00:27:23,220 --> 00:27:24,860 That was what I did. 457 00:27:24,860 --> 00:27:28,620 Even on Christmas day, I remember going to the gym 458 00:27:28,620 --> 00:27:31,220 at like six in the morning on Christmas day. 459 00:27:32,140 --> 00:27:35,020 And that was like awesome times. 460 00:27:36,780 --> 00:27:41,780 So then I was reading starting junior year 461 00:27:42,100 --> 00:27:45,620 and then right now I've been reading 462 00:27:45,620 --> 00:27:48,580 for a little over a year. 463 00:27:48,580 --> 00:27:51,020 I'm in senior year. 464 00:27:51,020 --> 00:27:55,340 And then the summer going into junior year 465 00:27:55,340 --> 00:27:58,860 is when I decided that I was like this whole time 466 00:27:58,860 --> 00:28:01,380 I was like, while I was reading, 467 00:28:01,380 --> 00:28:03,420 I was really focused on health 468 00:28:03,420 --> 00:28:06,340 and a lot of that stuff, improving my health. 469 00:28:07,540 --> 00:28:09,660 And then summer going into junior year, 470 00:28:09,660 --> 00:28:12,180 I realized that I got to the point where like, 471 00:28:13,140 --> 00:28:15,220 in order to improve my health more, 472 00:28:15,220 --> 00:28:18,420 because I was looking into like estrogenics 473 00:28:18,420 --> 00:28:23,420 and like cutting out all of the bad chemicals in my life, 474 00:28:23,700 --> 00:28:28,700 I realized that in order to improve my health more, 475 00:28:30,020 --> 00:28:33,220 I actually needed money and I didn't have any money. 476 00:28:33,220 --> 00:28:34,660 And there was only so much stuff 477 00:28:34,660 --> 00:28:38,220 that my parents were willing to like pay for, 478 00:28:38,220 --> 00:28:43,220 which is understandable because I was asking for a lot of stuff. 479 00:28:43,220 --> 00:28:45,660 So I realized that I needed money to improve my health. 480 00:28:45,660 --> 00:28:47,900 So then I kind of thought that I needed 481 00:28:47,900 --> 00:28:49,460 to start making money. 482 00:28:49,460 --> 00:28:52,860 So I was like, okay, I've always really had the idea 483 00:28:52,860 --> 00:28:54,460 that I was going to get into entrepreneurship, 484 00:28:54,460 --> 00:28:56,260 but I was never really serious about it. 485 00:28:56,260 --> 00:28:59,460 I was never really like dedicated about it. 486 00:28:59,460 --> 00:29:01,060 I never really learned about it. 487 00:29:01,060 --> 00:29:04,460 And I was like going in that summer, 488 00:29:04,460 --> 00:29:07,420 I decided to lock in on business. 489 00:29:07,420 --> 00:29:09,860 So I started reading books about it. 490 00:29:09,860 --> 00:29:14,860 And then I remember one of the ways that I locked in 491 00:29:17,140 --> 00:29:22,140 on business was literally buying like 10 books on business 492 00:29:23,100 --> 00:29:26,580 and having them shipped to my house all on like the same day. 493 00:29:27,620 --> 00:29:30,180 And I probably only read like two of those books, 494 00:29:30,180 --> 00:29:32,740 maybe one or two of those books. 495 00:29:32,740 --> 00:29:36,540 Like they're just sitting in my closet, not doing anything. 496 00:29:36,540 --> 00:29:41,540 And that was like how I decided to lock in, 497 00:29:41,700 --> 00:29:43,140 even though I was already locked in there. 498 00:29:43,140 --> 00:29:45,340 I was just being a dumb, I was just being dumb. 499 00:29:46,660 --> 00:29:49,940 So I started reading all the business books. 500 00:29:49,940 --> 00:29:54,940 And then I read expert secrets, started doing the podcast. 501 00:29:55,340 --> 00:29:57,980 And I realized that I didn't really, 502 00:29:58,900 --> 00:30:01,260 I was working on like funnels and stuff, 503 00:30:01,260 --> 00:30:03,940 trying to learn how to build websites. 504 00:30:03,940 --> 00:30:07,580 And I didn't really see that that was my path. 505 00:30:09,020 --> 00:30:11,060 But now I'm starting to see how it was all connected 506 00:30:11,060 --> 00:30:12,140 because it's good. 507 00:30:12,140 --> 00:30:14,980 Like I was excited learning about funnels 508 00:30:14,980 --> 00:30:16,860 until a certain point. 509 00:30:16,860 --> 00:30:20,300 Once I developed an understanding of how like the software 510 00:30:20,300 --> 00:30:22,500 worked and all that stuff, 511 00:30:22,500 --> 00:30:25,540 then I kind of got bored of building funnels. 512 00:30:25,540 --> 00:30:30,540 And then I started locking in on the podcast. 513 00:30:31,300 --> 00:30:33,420 But now I'm starting to see how it all comes together 514 00:30:33,420 --> 00:30:38,020 because I'm seeing people using click funnels 515 00:30:38,020 --> 00:30:39,380 all over the place. 516 00:30:39,380 --> 00:30:42,220 And I'm seeing like all of these business concepts 517 00:30:42,220 --> 00:30:44,580 in like my day to day experience, 518 00:30:44,580 --> 00:30:45,740 looking at other YouTubers. 519 00:30:45,740 --> 00:30:47,580 And I'm seeing how other YouTubers 520 00:30:47,580 --> 00:30:50,300 are like actually doing business 521 00:30:51,580 --> 00:30:55,220 on like their platforms, for example, Hamza, 522 00:30:55,220 --> 00:30:57,460 in his bio on YouTube, 523 00:30:58,420 --> 00:31:02,260 is there's a link that leads to a click funnels page. 524 00:31:02,260 --> 00:31:06,940 And it's like just a lead magnet of a dating thing, 525 00:31:06,940 --> 00:31:09,340 like a dating, how to get better at dating 526 00:31:09,340 --> 00:31:10,540 or something like that. 527 00:31:10,540 --> 00:31:12,940 And I could tell that it's on click funnels. 528 00:31:14,340 --> 00:31:16,100 I could just tell that it was on click funnels, 529 00:31:16,100 --> 00:31:17,820 but the way I knew it was on click funnels 530 00:31:17,820 --> 00:31:22,820 was because on the icon of the website 531 00:31:22,900 --> 00:31:25,300 was still the click funnels icon. 532 00:31:27,060 --> 00:31:30,340 So that is, 533 00:31:30,340 --> 00:31:33,340 other people are doing that. 534 00:31:34,420 --> 00:31:36,340 And that's what I'm realizing that. 535 00:31:36,340 --> 00:31:38,220 That's why it's all connected 536 00:31:38,220 --> 00:31:40,740 because I was working on business, 537 00:31:40,740 --> 00:31:43,780 just studying business like for a few months in summer. 538 00:31:44,940 --> 00:31:48,540 And then I started recording my podcast 539 00:31:48,540 --> 00:31:50,540 and then I kind of shifted. 540 00:31:50,540 --> 00:31:54,100 I'd stopped learning about business like altogether. 541 00:31:54,100 --> 00:31:56,380 I haven't read a business book in a few months. 542 00:31:56,380 --> 00:32:00,300 I shifted all my attention to worldview. 543 00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:05,060 And so that's all the books that I've been reading so far. 544 00:32:05,060 --> 00:32:06,340 Reality Transurfing. 545 00:32:06,340 --> 00:32:07,860 And then I actually was, 546 00:32:07,860 --> 00:32:09,780 I did read two more business books, 547 00:32:09,780 --> 00:32:13,500 10X is easier than 2X as well as Create Don't Capture, 548 00:32:13,500 --> 00:32:16,420 but those were pretty quick reads and I didn't, 549 00:32:17,540 --> 00:32:20,700 that was just because I just got out of Funnel Acu Live. 550 00:32:20,700 --> 00:32:24,460 It's the whole thing, but pretty much, 551 00:32:24,460 --> 00:32:27,900 I completely shifted my focus from learning about business 552 00:32:27,900 --> 00:32:31,260 to just self-improvement again. 553 00:32:31,260 --> 00:32:33,980 Like I'm only working on self-improvement now, 554 00:32:33,980 --> 00:32:35,860 working on my spirituality, 555 00:32:35,860 --> 00:32:38,700 and I'm working on concentration, my core three. 556 00:32:38,700 --> 00:32:41,740 Like I've talked about my core three before. 557 00:32:41,740 --> 00:32:44,740 It's the three things that I'm focusing on right now. 558 00:32:44,740 --> 00:32:47,140 The only three things that are really important 559 00:32:47,140 --> 00:32:50,580 in my life right now is my spirituality, 560 00:32:50,580 --> 00:32:52,220 which I'm doing with meditation 561 00:32:52,220 --> 00:32:54,740 as well as learning about it in books. 562 00:32:54,740 --> 00:32:58,180 My worldview, which I'm doing in books, 563 00:32:58,180 --> 00:33:00,900 and then my documentation, 564 00:33:00,900 --> 00:33:03,500 which I'm documenting through creating content, 565 00:33:03,500 --> 00:33:07,380 like the podcast as well as TikTok and Shorts. 566 00:33:07,380 --> 00:33:12,060 And so talking about Shorts or TikToks, 567 00:33:12,060 --> 00:33:17,060 I've been posting three times a day on TikToks and Shorts 568 00:33:17,220 --> 00:33:20,060 for the past few weeks. 569 00:33:20,060 --> 00:33:25,060 And a few people have commented on my posts. 570 00:33:26,100 --> 00:33:31,100 And this one person in particular that I read today, 571 00:33:31,100 --> 00:33:33,780 which is another thing that I shouldn't be doing, 572 00:33:33,780 --> 00:33:38,780 checking my TikTok stats or analytics before recording. 573 00:33:40,860 --> 00:33:44,300 But I needed inspiration because I sat down again today, 574 00:33:44,300 --> 00:33:46,140 like not knowing what to talk about. 575 00:33:46,140 --> 00:33:48,820 So I just decided to look at my TikTok comments 576 00:33:48,820 --> 00:33:53,820 and see if you guys are saying things that I can speak on. 577 00:33:54,820 --> 00:33:59,820 And this one lady commented on my post and said, 578 00:34:02,820 --> 00:34:06,780 it was a post about how when you control your thoughts, 579 00:34:06,780 --> 00:34:08,300 you control your reality, 580 00:34:08,300 --> 00:34:10,940 and you can actually create the life that you want. 581 00:34:11,980 --> 00:34:15,220 And this person commented and said, 582 00:34:15,220 --> 00:34:18,900 well, how come you're still in this? 583 00:34:18,900 --> 00:34:22,100 Like the person said a bad word, 584 00:34:22,100 --> 00:34:26,580 but how come you're still in this place, 585 00:34:26,580 --> 00:34:28,300 this terrible place? 586 00:34:28,300 --> 00:34:31,620 The first, if I could control my reality, 587 00:34:31,620 --> 00:34:35,300 then the first thing I would do is leave this place 588 00:34:35,300 --> 00:34:40,300 and go somewhere that is still divine in nature. 589 00:34:40,300 --> 00:34:42,820 And that's a very valid comment. 590 00:34:42,820 --> 00:34:44,420 Why am I still here? 591 00:34:44,420 --> 00:34:47,620 Why am I still in this chair? 592 00:34:47,620 --> 00:34:50,620 Or why am I still like, ask a little, 593 00:34:50,620 --> 00:34:55,620 why am I still in this like matrix of a society? 594 00:34:56,420 --> 00:34:58,300 And I've been like going back and forth 595 00:34:58,300 --> 00:35:00,220 with this question many times. 596 00:35:01,220 --> 00:35:04,300 On one side, I'm thinking like I could just leave. 597 00:35:04,300 --> 00:35:07,580 I could just get up and leave and go on my own adventure. 598 00:35:07,580 --> 00:35:10,620 I could, like we live in a society 599 00:35:10,620 --> 00:35:13,460 where food is taken care of. 600 00:35:13,460 --> 00:35:15,260 Yeah, I saw it to pay for it, 601 00:35:15,260 --> 00:35:17,220 but I could figure things out, 602 00:35:17,220 --> 00:35:19,260 like the world would take care of me. 603 00:35:20,260 --> 00:35:24,260 But then on the other side, I'm trying to build this life. 604 00:35:24,620 --> 00:35:27,540 So I'm trying to build like the foundation. 605 00:35:27,540 --> 00:35:28,900 I'm trying to focus on business 606 00:35:28,900 --> 00:35:31,660 so I can have a foundation to my entire life. 607 00:35:31,660 --> 00:35:34,060 I want my business to fuel my entire life 608 00:35:34,060 --> 00:35:35,660 so I don't have to worry about it. 609 00:35:35,660 --> 00:35:37,740 I want to fuel my entire life so I don't have to worry 610 00:35:37,740 --> 00:35:39,940 about money at all for the rest of my life. 611 00:35:41,460 --> 00:35:45,580 But then on that side, I'm also like questioning, 612 00:35:45,580 --> 00:35:48,220 am I just saying that? 613 00:35:48,220 --> 00:35:50,620 Because I'm too scared to actually make the leap. 614 00:35:51,900 --> 00:35:56,420 So it's kind of like a back and forth in that context. 615 00:35:56,420 --> 00:36:01,420 But then, so I could simply just radically shift 616 00:36:01,420 --> 00:36:02,940 my scenery right now. 617 00:36:02,940 --> 00:36:07,540 I could, like anyone could. 618 00:36:07,540 --> 00:36:09,140 You have the right to choose. 619 00:36:10,580 --> 00:36:13,220 But there's one point that the person is missing. 620 00:36:13,220 --> 00:36:16,540 So let's go with the second situation, 621 00:36:16,540 --> 00:36:19,260 second scenario where I'm trying to develop, 622 00:36:19,260 --> 00:36:21,020 I'm trying to build my life 623 00:36:21,020 --> 00:36:24,620 and create my business to fuel my entire life. 624 00:36:24,620 --> 00:36:27,060 Let's just go with that scenario for argument's sake. 625 00:36:27,060 --> 00:36:30,860 The one point that the person is missing 626 00:36:30,860 --> 00:36:35,740 is that materialization is inert like tar. 627 00:36:35,740 --> 00:36:39,100 The world is a mirror, but it has a delay. 628 00:36:39,100 --> 00:36:42,900 And what that means is that when you control your thoughts, 629 00:36:42,900 --> 00:36:46,540 you control reality, but it won't happen instantly. 630 00:36:46,540 --> 00:36:48,580 You have to, like I said earlier, 631 00:36:48,580 --> 00:36:51,540 you have to hold that image in your head 632 00:36:51,540 --> 00:36:54,420 for quite some time for it to actually manifest 633 00:36:54,420 --> 00:36:57,420 into reality, for it to actually become physical 634 00:36:57,420 --> 00:36:59,940 and actually become your world. 635 00:36:59,940 --> 00:37:04,780 And so that is the very key factor in this. 636 00:37:04,780 --> 00:37:07,500 It takes time and it takes patience. 637 00:37:07,500 --> 00:37:09,100 You have to just keep building. 638 00:37:09,100 --> 00:37:11,660 And the thing is, it's a double-sided blade. 639 00:37:11,660 --> 00:37:15,060 When you start to control your thoughts, 640 00:37:15,060 --> 00:37:17,540 you're gonna be bad at it in the beginning, 641 00:37:17,540 --> 00:37:19,900 but then you'll get better and better and better. 642 00:37:19,900 --> 00:37:21,380 And eventually you'll get like, 643 00:37:21,380 --> 00:37:22,660 it's like exponential growth. 644 00:37:22,660 --> 00:37:24,260 Over time, you'll just get better and better 645 00:37:24,260 --> 00:37:25,660 at controlling your thoughts. 646 00:37:25,660 --> 00:37:27,420 So that's one side of the blade. 647 00:37:27,420 --> 00:37:30,060 So then over time, you'll get more and more powerful 648 00:37:30,060 --> 00:37:31,620 at controlling your reality. 649 00:37:31,620 --> 00:37:33,060 But then the other side is, 650 00:37:33,060 --> 00:37:35,020 as you're starting to control reality, 651 00:37:35,020 --> 00:37:37,380 you're actually like sending those thoughts out. 652 00:37:37,380 --> 00:37:39,860 So you're sending thoughts out. 653 00:37:39,860 --> 00:37:41,500 Yeah, they're probably weak in the beginning 654 00:37:41,500 --> 00:37:44,020 because you don't have very powerful energy 655 00:37:44,020 --> 00:37:47,500 as well as your thoughts are not very controlled. 656 00:37:47,500 --> 00:37:50,100 And so they're not concentrated as much. 657 00:37:50,100 --> 00:37:54,500 So then over time, you'll get more and more like sway 658 00:37:54,500 --> 00:37:57,900 on or more and more control over reality. 659 00:37:57,900 --> 00:38:01,020 And so that is like the big thing here. 660 00:38:01,020 --> 00:38:03,500 I'm trying to set myself up for my entire life. 661 00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:06,580 I'm trying to build my entire foundation. 662 00:38:06,580 --> 00:38:08,860 Like I'm trying to build the foundation to my entire life. 663 00:38:08,860 --> 00:38:11,460 Like I said, I believe that worldview 664 00:38:11,460 --> 00:38:13,980 and now I'm starting to think spirituality. 665 00:38:13,980 --> 00:38:16,940 And I don't know how spirituality or worldview is very, 666 00:38:16,940 --> 00:38:18,900 I'm not sure how it's connected, 667 00:38:18,900 --> 00:38:22,380 but I have a sense that it is connected. 668 00:38:22,380 --> 00:38:23,900 I'm just learning about them. 669 00:38:23,900 --> 00:38:26,300 I don't really know much about spirituality yet. 670 00:38:28,020 --> 00:38:29,460 And so I'm starting to believe that, 671 00:38:29,460 --> 00:38:32,460 or I know that worldview is like the foundation to your life. 672 00:38:34,020 --> 00:38:35,780 So that's why I'm building, 673 00:38:35,780 --> 00:38:39,460 I'm focusing all in on my worldview right now 674 00:38:39,460 --> 00:38:40,460 in spirituality. 675 00:38:42,020 --> 00:38:45,460 And, but like to be honest, that is just one thing. 676 00:38:45,460 --> 00:38:48,420 That's just building my like character, 677 00:38:48,420 --> 00:38:51,260 just building up my own person. 678 00:38:51,260 --> 00:38:55,460 But I still have to like make an impact on the world. 679 00:38:55,460 --> 00:38:59,420 And I still have to actually have a business 680 00:38:59,420 --> 00:39:01,740 or actually have like an income source. 681 00:39:01,740 --> 00:39:06,740 And so that's why the third core piece to my core three 682 00:39:09,100 --> 00:39:13,180 is documentation because that is like me starting 683 00:39:13,180 --> 00:39:14,980 to build my business. 684 00:39:14,980 --> 00:39:18,780 Like the documentation, the podcast, the TikToks 685 00:39:18,780 --> 00:39:21,060 are the foundation to my business. 686 00:39:21,060 --> 00:39:23,180 Whereas my worldview and spirituality 687 00:39:23,180 --> 00:39:24,660 is the foundation to my life. 688 00:39:24,660 --> 00:39:28,140 And then as a result of my business 689 00:39:28,140 --> 00:39:29,620 is the foundation to my life. 690 00:39:29,620 --> 00:39:32,700 So all these three core threes are the foundation 691 00:39:32,700 --> 00:39:36,180 to my life, but the business side 692 00:39:36,180 --> 00:39:38,620 is kind of like the material side. 693 00:39:38,620 --> 00:39:41,860 And then the worldview and spirituality are the like, 694 00:39:44,820 --> 00:39:47,860 non-material side of things. 695 00:39:47,860 --> 00:39:52,700 So I kind of have this, I'm starting to develop more 696 00:39:52,700 --> 00:39:54,220 and more in all three. 697 00:39:55,500 --> 00:40:00,500 And I'm just trying to show like one of the big goals 698 00:40:01,380 --> 00:40:05,380 of this podcast, even from the beginning 699 00:40:05,380 --> 00:40:10,380 was to show you guys that it's possible to escape, 700 00:40:10,420 --> 00:40:11,740 to actually live free. 701 00:40:11,740 --> 00:40:14,740 It's possible to become free. 702 00:40:14,740 --> 00:40:18,060 Like the whole point of this podcast is me documenting 703 00:40:18,060 --> 00:40:21,740 my journey from being in this society 704 00:40:21,740 --> 00:40:23,740 and documenting all of my growth 705 00:40:23,740 --> 00:40:26,300 and everything that I'm doing along the way. 706 00:40:26,300 --> 00:40:29,980 Which by the way, the only thing on the material side 707 00:40:29,980 --> 00:40:32,060 of things, the only thing on the business side of things 708 00:40:32,060 --> 00:40:36,500 that I've done so far up to this point is podcasting. 709 00:40:36,500 --> 00:40:40,700 And then just recently I started doing TikToks and shorts, 710 00:40:40,700 --> 00:40:41,860 three of them every day. 711 00:40:41,860 --> 00:40:46,860 So literally all I've been doing is podcasting 712 00:40:46,940 --> 00:40:49,060 on the business side of things. 713 00:40:49,060 --> 00:40:53,420 And that's like the whole purpose of this, 714 00:40:53,420 --> 00:40:56,500 like that's the biggest purpose of this podcast 715 00:40:56,500 --> 00:41:00,820 to prove that anyone can make it out of the rat race. 716 00:41:00,820 --> 00:41:04,380 Anyone, doesn't matter who you are. 717 00:41:04,380 --> 00:41:06,540 Anyone can actually become free. 718 00:41:08,020 --> 00:41:09,620 You just have to actually do it. 719 00:41:09,620 --> 00:41:11,660 You actually have to do it. 720 00:41:11,660 --> 00:41:14,940 And so this is why I think it's so powerful 721 00:41:14,940 --> 00:41:19,700 that I'm like showing all my progress 722 00:41:19,700 --> 00:41:24,700 because I am so much further ahead of where I was 90 days ago 723 00:41:24,740 --> 00:41:26,580 when I started this. 724 00:41:26,580 --> 00:41:31,580 90 days ago when I started this was a completely different me. 725 00:41:32,580 --> 00:41:35,100 And so there's two journeys that I'm going on. 726 00:41:35,100 --> 00:41:37,140 I learned about this concept in expert secrets. 727 00:41:37,140 --> 00:41:41,740 There's the journey of, I think it's called the journey, 728 00:41:41,740 --> 00:41:45,260 like the destination, which is basically, 729 00:41:46,180 --> 00:41:48,700 my destination would be like freedom 730 00:41:48,700 --> 00:41:52,100 or my destination would be financial freedom. 731 00:41:52,100 --> 00:41:54,980 That's kind of like the purpose of, 732 00:41:54,980 --> 00:41:59,980 like that's the greedy purpose or the selfish purpose 733 00:42:00,680 --> 00:42:03,020 that I have for myself for this podcast. 734 00:42:03,020 --> 00:42:08,020 That's the journey of destination. 735 00:42:08,060 --> 00:42:11,180 Like that's my journey that I'm going towards. 736 00:42:12,820 --> 00:42:14,540 And then, but there's a, 737 00:42:14,540 --> 00:42:19,540 like that's kind of what I'm documenting for the podcast. 738 00:42:19,540 --> 00:42:22,260 But then there's a second more hidden journey, 739 00:42:22,260 --> 00:42:24,540 which is the journey of transformation, 740 00:42:24,540 --> 00:42:26,900 which is actually what people want to see. 741 00:42:26,900 --> 00:42:31,580 Like that's actually what makes people feel good 742 00:42:31,580 --> 00:42:34,300 about this story or that's what makes people attached 743 00:42:34,300 --> 00:42:37,780 to the movies and all of that stuff. 744 00:42:37,780 --> 00:42:40,740 And the journey of transformation is the evolution 745 00:42:40,740 --> 00:42:44,700 that occurs, like the improvement that occurs on, 746 00:42:44,700 --> 00:42:49,700 like for that person on their journey towards the, 747 00:42:50,700 --> 00:42:51,540 their goal. 748 00:42:52,780 --> 00:42:55,060 And so it's just been 90 days 749 00:42:55,780 --> 00:43:00,100 and I haven't reached my destination yet. 750 00:43:00,100 --> 00:43:02,580 The most powerful thing of all 751 00:43:02,580 --> 00:43:03,980 is my journey of transformation. 752 00:43:03,980 --> 00:43:07,260 These past 90 days, I've been like changing as a person. 753 00:43:07,260 --> 00:43:11,400 I've been evolving and improving so much radically. 754 00:43:12,780 --> 00:43:16,300 And now I'm like starting to transform. 755 00:43:16,300 --> 00:43:20,220 And then once I, like in the next 90 days, 756 00:43:20,220 --> 00:43:22,620 once I reach like episode 180, 757 00:43:23,780 --> 00:43:26,580 then I'll definitely be radically different 758 00:43:26,580 --> 00:43:27,740 to where I am now. 759 00:43:27,740 --> 00:43:32,740 So it's like this, it's a whole process. 760 00:43:34,180 --> 00:43:36,300 And that like, that's the thing. 761 00:43:36,300 --> 00:43:40,740 Like yes, I'm chasing this like destination, 762 00:43:40,740 --> 00:43:43,340 which by the way, there is no real destination, 763 00:43:44,740 --> 00:43:47,940 but I'm chasing this like vague thing of freedom. 764 00:43:48,820 --> 00:43:52,260 And then along the way, 765 00:43:52,260 --> 00:43:53,660 you guys are seeing the transformation. 766 00:43:53,660 --> 00:43:57,020 And so when you guys actually do this for yourself, 767 00:43:57,020 --> 00:44:00,060 like when you make the decision to do this for yourself 768 00:44:00,060 --> 00:44:01,220 and make the decision that, 769 00:44:01,220 --> 00:44:03,460 oh yeah, I actually want to be financially free. 770 00:44:03,460 --> 00:44:04,580 Like this is something I want. 771 00:44:04,580 --> 00:44:06,980 I want to actually escape from, 772 00:44:06,980 --> 00:44:08,700 I want to actually live my life. 773 00:44:08,700 --> 00:44:10,100 I want to destroy my worldview. 774 00:44:10,100 --> 00:44:11,220 I want to learn the truth. 775 00:44:11,220 --> 00:44:13,900 I want to see all of it. 776 00:44:13,900 --> 00:44:16,940 Like I want to not be confined in this box 777 00:44:16,940 --> 00:44:19,460 that society has placed us in. 778 00:44:19,460 --> 00:44:21,380 It's actually a shame because more and more 779 00:44:21,380 --> 00:44:23,060 I'm coming aware of it. 780 00:44:23,060 --> 00:44:26,740 That my whole life has been literally, 781 00:44:26,740 --> 00:44:28,500 I've been placed in this box. 782 00:44:28,500 --> 00:44:33,500 Like it's just, I've been hidden like, 783 00:44:35,260 --> 00:44:38,820 true reality, like real life has been hidden for me 784 00:44:38,820 --> 00:44:41,420 all my life by society. 785 00:44:41,420 --> 00:44:43,300 And so when you guys make the decision, 786 00:44:44,220 --> 00:44:47,260 yeah, you're going towards the destination, 787 00:44:47,260 --> 00:44:49,060 you're going towards the goal. 788 00:44:50,900 --> 00:44:53,820 But the transformation is what really is happening 789 00:44:53,820 --> 00:44:57,620 on the daily basis. 790 00:44:57,620 --> 00:44:59,140 And this is another thing. 791 00:44:59,140 --> 00:45:01,140 What got you here won't get you there. 792 00:45:02,220 --> 00:45:04,940 So what got me here to episode 90 793 00:45:04,940 --> 00:45:07,500 will not get me to episode 180. 794 00:45:07,500 --> 00:45:10,940 Yeah, I could do the same thing to get to 180, 795 00:45:10,940 --> 00:45:13,780 but I won't see this, I won't see growth. 796 00:45:13,780 --> 00:45:17,660 I could just go through the monotony of daily life 797 00:45:17,660 --> 00:45:20,060 and just get to episode 180, 798 00:45:20,060 --> 00:45:23,900 but I won't see any growth on my show. 799 00:45:23,900 --> 00:45:27,060 If I really want to like get results out of this 800 00:45:27,060 --> 00:45:28,980 and get results off of my show, 801 00:45:30,100 --> 00:45:33,140 then I have to keep changing and evolving as a person. 802 00:45:33,140 --> 00:45:37,340 That's why I'm really locking in on the other two core 803 00:45:37,340 --> 00:45:41,700 threes, because if I simply just focus on my core, 804 00:45:41,700 --> 00:45:44,660 my one core of documentation, 805 00:45:44,660 --> 00:45:46,740 I probably won't get very far. 806 00:45:46,740 --> 00:45:51,740 But that's why I'm focusing on the other two cores, 807 00:45:52,060 --> 00:45:54,980 because when I, those are the two things 808 00:45:54,980 --> 00:45:57,860 that are actually gonna radically shift me as a human. 809 00:45:57,860 --> 00:46:00,820 My worldview is so much different, 810 00:46:00,820 --> 00:46:03,660 and it's starting to actually be shaped 811 00:46:03,660 --> 00:46:06,780 to how I want it to be from where it was 812 00:46:06,780 --> 00:46:10,260 when I first started podcasting. 813 00:46:10,260 --> 00:46:12,940 My knowledge is not as good. 814 00:46:12,940 --> 00:46:16,500 My like attention, my control over my thoughts, 815 00:46:16,500 --> 00:46:19,180 my control over my attention is way better 816 00:46:19,180 --> 00:46:20,780 than it was before. 817 00:46:20,780 --> 00:46:25,780 Like every single aspect of myself, my balance also, 818 00:46:25,780 --> 00:46:28,420 like everything is better than it was when I started. 819 00:46:30,540 --> 00:46:34,260 And so that's why I have three core things. 820 00:46:34,260 --> 00:46:37,740 Meditation to control my thoughts more, control, 821 00:46:37,740 --> 00:46:41,500 like and actually learn about this new thing 822 00:46:41,500 --> 00:46:43,020 that I'm learning about the gateway experience, 823 00:46:43,020 --> 00:46:48,020 which helps you reach deep levels of meditation, 824 00:46:48,540 --> 00:46:50,060 deep levels of consciousness. 825 00:46:50,060 --> 00:46:53,180 It actually helps you like start to uncover 826 00:46:53,180 --> 00:46:56,060 the reality of like the nature of reality itself, 827 00:46:56,060 --> 00:46:58,980 the fabric of reality, nature of the fabric of reality 828 00:46:58,980 --> 00:47:03,380 or whatever helps you start to learn more about yourself 829 00:47:03,380 --> 00:47:06,800 and the nature of like the human soul and all that. 830 00:47:08,060 --> 00:47:11,220 And then the other one is the worldview, 831 00:47:11,220 --> 00:47:13,300 which I've been doing ever since I started, 832 00:47:13,300 --> 00:47:15,180 like before I started podcasting, 833 00:47:15,180 --> 00:47:17,100 but especially once I started podcasting, 834 00:47:17,100 --> 00:47:19,260 I started getting locked in on worldview. 835 00:47:19,260 --> 00:47:24,260 And that is like the biggest thing that needs to change 836 00:47:24,260 --> 00:47:26,900 in me, like my worldview that got me here 837 00:47:26,900 --> 00:47:29,620 will not get me to become a millionaire. 838 00:47:29,620 --> 00:47:31,100 Early on in this podcast, 839 00:47:31,100 --> 00:47:32,740 I declared that I was gonna be a millionaire. 840 00:47:32,740 --> 00:47:35,820 I think it was episode seven. 841 00:47:35,820 --> 00:47:37,260 That was like the first, 842 00:47:37,260 --> 00:47:40,900 I think that was like the first time I publicly declared. 843 00:47:40,900 --> 00:47:43,020 That was gonna be a millionaire. 844 00:47:43,020 --> 00:47:45,860 And I haven't really talked about it much since then, 845 00:47:45,860 --> 00:47:49,060 I don't think, but that's where I'm headed. 846 00:47:49,060 --> 00:47:53,460 And well, actually, yeah, I have talked about it, 847 00:47:53,460 --> 00:47:57,580 but where was I going with this? 848 00:48:06,020 --> 00:48:09,620 It was gonna be a millionaire and then, oh yeah. 849 00:48:09,620 --> 00:48:13,580 So the worldview that I had when I declared that, 850 00:48:13,580 --> 00:48:15,540 I'm gonna be honest, I didn't really know. 851 00:48:15,540 --> 00:48:17,580 Now I know way more. 852 00:48:17,580 --> 00:48:20,300 I still have like a sliver of doubt, 853 00:48:20,300 --> 00:48:24,620 but I have like, my worldview has been absolutely purged, 854 00:48:24,620 --> 00:48:26,660 like completely. 855 00:48:26,660 --> 00:48:29,980 And it's still like, I still have a lot of work to do, 856 00:48:29,980 --> 00:48:31,820 but my worldview is radically different 857 00:48:31,820 --> 00:48:34,380 from where it was when I first started. 858 00:48:34,380 --> 00:48:38,220 And so now I'm like more and more realizing 859 00:48:38,220 --> 00:48:40,300 that this is actually possible. 860 00:48:40,300 --> 00:48:45,180 And it's like, that's why I'm really lacking in a worldview 861 00:48:45,180 --> 00:48:48,540 because worldview is gonna allow me to uncover way more. 862 00:48:48,540 --> 00:48:51,780 Like I have been talking about in the past few episodes, 863 00:48:51,780 --> 00:48:55,980 one of the biggest things that is holding us back, 864 00:48:55,980 --> 00:48:59,140 or the only thing that's holding us back is ourself. 865 00:49:00,300 --> 00:49:02,660 But it's not entirely our fault 866 00:49:02,660 --> 00:49:07,780 because society has basically 867 00:49:07,780 --> 00:49:10,500 manipulated or shaped and molded your mind, 868 00:49:10,500 --> 00:49:13,580 your worldview, your thoughts in such a way 869 00:49:13,580 --> 00:49:15,220 to where you actually, 870 00:49:15,220 --> 00:49:18,460 it actually gets you to hold yourself back. 871 00:49:18,460 --> 00:49:20,860 And so, yes, you hold yourself, 872 00:49:20,860 --> 00:49:22,500 you're the only one holding yourself back, 873 00:49:22,500 --> 00:49:26,020 but it's because society has placed those thoughts 874 00:49:26,020 --> 00:49:26,980 into your mind. 875 00:49:29,020 --> 00:49:34,020 And so, what I realized is that I'm holding myself back, 876 00:49:34,020 --> 00:49:36,820 I'm holding myself back, 877 00:49:36,820 --> 00:49:38,220 that's why I'm going on worldview. 878 00:49:38,220 --> 00:49:42,900 That's why I need to completely change all of this stuff 879 00:49:42,900 --> 00:49:46,060 because I'm still holding myself back to this day. 880 00:49:46,060 --> 00:50:04,740 Let me get some water. 881 00:50:04,740 --> 00:50:10,500 It's a lot of learning that I must occur. 882 00:50:10,500 --> 00:50:13,620 Like I was saying, worldview, 883 00:50:13,620 --> 00:50:16,500 you're the only one holding yourself back, 884 00:50:16,500 --> 00:50:18,540 but society has placed that into you. 885 00:50:18,540 --> 00:50:21,340 But you had the ability to take that out. 886 00:50:21,340 --> 00:50:23,620 But it's a long process, I'm gonna be honest. 887 00:50:23,620 --> 00:50:25,740 I've been doing it a few months 888 00:50:25,740 --> 00:50:27,140 and I've still got a long way to go. 889 00:50:27,140 --> 00:50:31,020 I feel like it may be a lifelong thing. 890 00:50:32,020 --> 00:50:34,260 But one of the biggest, 891 00:50:34,260 --> 00:50:37,140 like probably I haven't learned much about it, 892 00:50:37,140 --> 00:50:40,220 but just from what I've seen so far, 893 00:50:40,220 --> 00:50:44,020 this may in fact be the biggest thing holding us back. 894 00:50:44,020 --> 00:50:45,780 And it's the fear of death. 895 00:50:45,780 --> 00:50:47,820 That's one of the things that society has placed 896 00:50:47,820 --> 00:50:51,260 into our minds, it's deeply ingrained 897 00:50:51,260 --> 00:50:53,940 in our consciousness. 898 00:50:55,100 --> 00:50:56,380 The fear of death. 899 00:50:57,660 --> 00:51:01,300 The Stoics, they did not fear death. 900 00:51:01,300 --> 00:51:04,940 My friend was telling me about one of the Stoics 901 00:51:04,940 --> 00:51:07,020 that he read about, I forgot his name. 902 00:51:07,020 --> 00:51:12,020 And he heard, like read some quotes about him 903 00:51:12,780 --> 00:51:16,660 and basically the Stoic did not fear death 904 00:51:16,660 --> 00:51:19,380 because when you fear death, you're not really living. 905 00:51:21,420 --> 00:51:24,380 So that is something that I'm really gonna start 906 00:51:24,380 --> 00:51:26,860 getting into over the next couple of weeks, 907 00:51:26,860 --> 00:51:29,260 the fear of death and just death in general 908 00:51:29,260 --> 00:51:33,060 because if that's one of the biggest things 909 00:51:33,060 --> 00:51:35,220 that I'm holding myself back with, 910 00:51:35,220 --> 00:51:37,780 well then it would make sense 911 00:51:37,780 --> 00:51:40,220 to just destroy it out of my mind. 912 00:51:41,500 --> 00:51:44,300 I hadn't even thought about the fear of death 913 00:51:45,260 --> 00:51:47,540 until just recently, I wasn't even aware 914 00:51:47,540 --> 00:51:50,580 that that was a limiting belief in my mind 915 00:51:50,580 --> 00:51:51,700 until just recently. 916 00:51:52,700 --> 00:51:55,660 And so that makes me think what else is there in my mind 917 00:51:55,660 --> 00:51:59,020 that I'm not even aware of that's holding me back? 918 00:51:59,020 --> 00:52:00,380 What else is there? 919 00:52:00,380 --> 00:52:05,380 So it's one, one, it's a process of actually 920 00:52:05,940 --> 00:52:09,700 like getting rid of the limiting beliefs 921 00:52:09,700 --> 00:52:12,620 but in order to get rid of it, you have to actually be aware 922 00:52:12,620 --> 00:52:14,740 and you have to actually know 923 00:52:14,740 --> 00:52:17,360 that it is a limiting belief and what it is. 924 00:52:18,380 --> 00:52:20,300 Like I didn't even know that the fear of death 925 00:52:20,300 --> 00:52:24,700 was a limiting belief until recently. 926 00:52:26,100 --> 00:52:29,380 And now I need to know like what it is. 927 00:52:29,380 --> 00:52:30,580 I need to learn more about it 928 00:52:30,580 --> 00:52:34,660 because yeah, I could like start trying to do the inner work 929 00:52:34,660 --> 00:52:36,660 and purging myself of the fear of death 930 00:52:37,820 --> 00:52:42,540 but it's like, I don't know how to go about that. 931 00:52:42,540 --> 00:52:45,060 So I have to learn more about it 932 00:52:45,060 --> 00:52:47,860 in order to actually start doing the inner work on it. 933 00:52:50,740 --> 00:52:53,700 And so that's why I'm gonna be reading Die Wise next. 934 00:52:53,700 --> 00:53:00,620 I have maybe a hundred pages left of Dancing After The Music 935 00:53:00,620 --> 00:53:02,260 stops, which sounds like a lot 936 00:53:02,260 --> 00:53:05,500 but it'll probably just be like two days of reading 937 00:53:05,500 --> 00:53:09,620 because in two days, because there's a lot of pictures 938 00:53:09,620 --> 00:53:11,580 and it's a pretty quick read 939 00:53:11,580 --> 00:53:16,420 because there's, it's pretty big words 940 00:53:16,420 --> 00:53:18,860 and it's a lot of spaces. 941 00:53:18,860 --> 00:53:20,820 And like there's a lot of empty pages 942 00:53:20,820 --> 00:53:24,100 or pages with just like a few words on it. 943 00:53:26,220 --> 00:53:29,860 But the fear of death is one of the biggest things 944 00:53:29,860 --> 00:53:33,380 that I need to work on. 945 00:53:35,140 --> 00:53:39,380 It's an absolutely, it's a long journey 946 00:53:39,380 --> 00:53:42,020 and that's like, that's why I'm very happy 947 00:53:42,020 --> 00:53:44,940 with my decision to start podcasting 948 00:53:44,940 --> 00:53:49,940 because there's so many things that I am documenting 949 00:53:49,940 --> 00:53:52,540 that would be so valuable to learn about 950 00:53:53,780 --> 00:53:55,220 when I first started. 951 00:53:55,220 --> 00:53:58,940 Like I said, you have to first learn 952 00:53:58,940 --> 00:54:00,780 about these limiting beliefs 953 00:54:00,780 --> 00:54:02,580 before you can actually get rid of them. 954 00:54:04,500 --> 00:54:06,580 Yeah, the getting rid of them is a long process 955 00:54:06,580 --> 00:54:08,940 but learning about them could be a long process as well 956 00:54:08,940 --> 00:54:10,500 if you don't even know where to start. 957 00:54:10,500 --> 00:54:13,500 Like I spent a whole year before I even started 958 00:54:13,500 --> 00:54:15,100 learning about worldview. 959 00:54:15,100 --> 00:54:19,660 Well, actually I spent like six months reading books 960 00:54:19,660 --> 00:54:22,020 before I even learned about Transurfing. 961 00:54:22,940 --> 00:54:24,980 And then once I learned about Transurfing, 962 00:54:24,980 --> 00:54:26,620 then the game changed for me 963 00:54:26,620 --> 00:54:30,060 and I started actually doing some worldview stuff 964 00:54:30,060 --> 00:54:32,300 and started learning about all that. 965 00:54:32,300 --> 00:54:34,580 It's probably like eight months maybe. 966 00:54:34,580 --> 00:54:36,020 It doesn't even matter though. 967 00:54:37,740 --> 00:54:42,740 But this podcast is definitely gonna be evolving soon. 968 00:54:43,060 --> 00:54:46,660 And I want to appreciate you guys 969 00:54:46,660 --> 00:54:48,580 for listening to these early episodes 970 00:54:48,580 --> 00:54:53,580 because one of the things that helped me start 971 00:54:54,260 --> 00:54:58,260 in the beginning recording was, 972 00:55:00,980 --> 00:55:03,260 one of the things that I heard was 973 00:55:03,260 --> 00:55:05,620 you're gonna suck in the beginning, like that's a given. 974 00:55:05,620 --> 00:55:08,180 You're gonna suck at podcasting. 975 00:55:08,180 --> 00:55:11,420 But the great thing is no one's gonna be listening to you. 976 00:55:11,420 --> 00:55:14,860 Like no one is gonna hear your beginning episodes 977 00:55:14,860 --> 00:55:17,180 because you're gonna suck. 978 00:55:17,180 --> 00:55:20,420 So no one's even gonna hear any of your episodes 979 00:55:20,420 --> 00:55:23,540 or even listen to you for quite some time. 980 00:55:23,540 --> 00:55:25,900 So that's good because it gives you time 981 00:55:25,900 --> 00:55:30,260 to start hearing, to like discovering your voice 982 00:55:30,260 --> 00:55:31,780 and finding your voice. 983 00:55:31,780 --> 00:55:34,620 And then all of, like it gives you time 984 00:55:34,620 --> 00:55:35,900 to get better and better. 985 00:55:35,900 --> 00:55:37,500 And then by the time you're actually good, 986 00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:39,460 then people will actually start listening. 987 00:55:41,180 --> 00:55:44,780 Which I feel as though I've started to get good, 988 00:55:44,780 --> 00:55:49,780 but it's also like, yeah, maybe I'm not that good yet. 989 00:55:51,380 --> 00:55:53,700 But it's also like I want to start seeing results. 990 00:55:53,700 --> 00:55:57,460 Like I'm not afraid of people hearing my show anymore. 991 00:55:57,460 --> 00:56:00,380 I'm not afraid of, like I'm not nervous 992 00:56:00,380 --> 00:56:02,380 or embarrassed about my podcast anymore. 993 00:56:03,500 --> 00:56:06,300 And so I'm starting to like want to see results 994 00:56:06,300 --> 00:56:10,140 and it's, I'm very glad that I have people listening. 995 00:56:10,140 --> 00:56:15,140 Even like people, like I've had like at least four subscribers 996 00:56:15,140 --> 00:56:19,940 pretty much the entire time I was recording. 997 00:56:21,620 --> 00:56:24,700 And recently it's been like five, six, seven. 998 00:56:24,700 --> 00:56:27,900 So people are actually listening to my episodes, 999 00:56:27,900 --> 00:56:29,700 which is very inspiring. 1000 00:56:31,380 --> 00:56:33,700 I don't really think about it enough. 1001 00:56:33,700 --> 00:56:36,700 I just always assume that no one's listening, 1002 00:56:36,700 --> 00:56:38,540 but they're like, you guys are actually listening. 1003 00:56:38,540 --> 00:56:43,060 Like there is six people that listened today, 1004 00:56:43,060 --> 00:56:45,340 just before I started recording. 1005 00:56:45,340 --> 00:56:48,900 Six people have already listened to my episodes. 1006 00:56:49,900 --> 00:56:51,940 So I want to appreciate you guys for listening. 1007 00:56:51,940 --> 00:56:55,460 And one last concept I want to talk about 1008 00:56:55,460 --> 00:57:00,460 is about my sudden surge of growth. 1009 00:57:00,980 --> 00:57:03,580 Which to me, it's a big surge of growth, 1010 00:57:03,580 --> 00:57:05,540 but in the grammar scheme of things, 1011 00:57:05,540 --> 00:57:07,780 it's not very big of a surge of growth. 1012 00:57:07,780 --> 00:57:11,660 Because 57 downloads is not that much considering 1013 00:57:11,660 --> 00:57:15,580 like where I want to be at like hundreds of thousands 1014 00:57:15,580 --> 00:57:17,380 or even millions of downloads a day. 1015 00:57:18,860 --> 00:57:23,860 But the surge of growth reminded me. 1016 00:57:24,580 --> 00:57:27,140 So right away when I saw that yesterday, 1017 00:57:27,140 --> 00:57:28,940 after like after I went upstairs 1018 00:57:28,940 --> 00:57:30,260 and I started thinking about it, 1019 00:57:30,260 --> 00:57:32,780 I thought, okay, there's two options. 1020 00:57:32,780 --> 00:57:34,220 There's one option. 1021 00:57:34,220 --> 00:57:36,900 All of these people are gonna listen for now on. 1022 00:57:36,900 --> 00:57:39,500 So now I'm gonna start having 50 subscribers 1023 00:57:39,500 --> 00:57:42,020 and 50 listeners for now on. 1024 00:57:42,020 --> 00:57:43,780 Or the second option is it's gonna be 1025 00:57:43,780 --> 00:57:45,900 like the Transurfing principle. 1026 00:57:45,900 --> 00:57:49,180 One of the stories that I learned about in Transurfing 1027 00:57:49,180 --> 00:57:52,660 was the stories of the Beatles, the band, the Beatles. 1028 00:57:52,660 --> 00:57:57,140 And there was another band as well. 1029 00:57:57,140 --> 00:57:59,740 I forgot their name, but pretty much 1030 00:57:59,740 --> 00:58:02,460 he, Vadim Zon told these stories 1031 00:58:02,460 --> 00:58:05,700 to portray this one principle. 1032 00:58:05,700 --> 00:58:08,740 And it's the principle of like fame. 1033 00:58:08,740 --> 00:58:12,620 And it's how the pendulum works 1034 00:58:12,620 --> 00:58:16,660 in regards to you gaining fame and popularity. 1035 00:58:17,740 --> 00:58:20,420 Which are you gaining like people 1036 00:58:20,420 --> 00:58:22,260 that are actually listening to you. 1037 00:58:22,260 --> 00:58:26,700 And so essentially the Beatles had a very long time 1038 00:58:26,700 --> 00:58:29,460 where they were not listened to. 1039 00:58:29,460 --> 00:58:31,860 Yes, they were very good. 1040 00:58:31,860 --> 00:58:35,260 Like in the beginning stages, I'm pretty sure. 1041 00:58:35,260 --> 00:58:37,140 If I remember the story correctly, 1042 00:58:37,140 --> 00:58:39,460 they were as good as they were 1043 00:58:39,460 --> 00:58:42,940 like when they were not listened to. 1044 00:58:42,940 --> 00:58:46,860 Like their songs were the same when they were not listened to. 1045 00:58:46,860 --> 00:58:49,940 And when they were like the most famous in the world. 1046 00:58:49,940 --> 00:58:51,100 Like their songs were the same. 1047 00:58:51,100 --> 00:58:54,180 The only difference was people were actually listening. 1048 00:58:54,180 --> 00:58:58,340 And so it took them like years to even get 1049 00:58:59,940 --> 00:59:01,620 a little bit of a fan base. 1050 00:59:01,620 --> 00:59:06,620 So after a few years, they developed like a small fan base. 1051 00:59:07,980 --> 00:59:12,980 And then they had one hit song. 1052 00:59:13,900 --> 00:59:16,340 And everyone thought that it was just a one time thing. 1053 00:59:16,340 --> 00:59:19,420 And no one, like the song like was a hit. 1054 00:59:20,500 --> 00:59:23,140 And then everyone was like, oh, it's just a one time thing. 1055 00:59:23,140 --> 00:59:27,060 And it was, they instantly like went back down 1056 00:59:27,060 --> 00:59:31,940 to their kind of baseline of what they were before. 1057 00:59:31,940 --> 00:59:33,300 Maybe they went up a little bit, 1058 00:59:33,300 --> 00:59:36,020 but pretty much they're still like not very popular, 1059 00:59:36,020 --> 00:59:37,900 but they had one hit. 1060 00:59:37,900 --> 00:59:39,940 And then they suck through. 1061 00:59:39,940 --> 00:59:44,420 And then they like the wave, 1062 00:59:44,420 --> 00:59:47,780 like their one hit was kind of like the first wave 1063 00:59:47,780 --> 00:59:48,660 come crashing in. 1064 00:59:48,660 --> 00:59:51,140 And then it kind of like draw back. 1065 00:59:51,140 --> 00:59:52,180 That's what Adam Zellin said. 1066 00:59:52,180 --> 00:59:54,140 The wave kind of draw back, 1067 00:59:54,140 --> 00:59:56,980 went back and gained more force and power. 1068 00:59:56,980 --> 00:59:58,380 And then it hit them again. 1069 00:59:58,380 --> 01:00:00,060 And then this time it was like for real 1070 01:00:00,060 --> 01:00:04,140 and they were a world sensation and they gained fame. 1071 01:00:04,140 --> 01:00:07,500 So it was first wave come in 1072 01:00:07,500 --> 01:00:11,300 and then it kind of drew back and then they got hit with it. 1073 01:00:11,300 --> 01:00:15,420 And so yes, I'm not to that scale. 1074 01:00:15,420 --> 01:00:17,660 Like I have a small follower base. 1075 01:00:17,660 --> 01:00:19,460 So I've been doing this for 90 days. 1076 01:00:19,460 --> 01:00:23,460 So so far, all of the principles are the same in my story 1077 01:00:23,460 --> 01:00:25,820 as they are for the Beatles. 1078 01:00:25,820 --> 01:00:28,540 I've been doing this for 90 days quite some time. 1079 01:00:28,540 --> 01:00:30,260 I've developed a small follower base, 1080 01:00:30,260 --> 01:00:32,740 like four to seven people listening. 1081 01:00:34,740 --> 01:00:36,780 Obviously it's not to the same scale. 1082 01:00:36,780 --> 01:00:39,580 Like I have, it's much smaller scale 1083 01:00:39,580 --> 01:00:41,860 and much smaller timeframe as well. 1084 01:00:41,860 --> 01:00:44,260 And then I had my first surge of growth, 1085 01:00:44,260 --> 01:00:46,500 which was in fact a one time thing 1086 01:00:47,580 --> 01:00:52,580 as proved today when I just saw this, the analytics. 1087 01:00:52,580 --> 01:00:57,580 And so it like the wave is kind of pulling back now. 1088 01:00:58,420 --> 01:01:01,780 And so my prediction is that soon I'll have another surge 1089 01:01:01,780 --> 01:01:03,900 but this time it'll be like for real. 1090 01:01:03,900 --> 01:01:08,900 And it may not be like to the extent that the Beatles were, 1091 01:01:10,820 --> 01:01:14,020 but it'll be a noticeable surge. 1092 01:01:14,020 --> 01:01:16,100 And I'll start to actually see some success 1093 01:01:16,100 --> 01:01:19,020 with this podcast. 1094 01:01:19,020 --> 01:01:22,940 So that's another thing to give hope and give some more 1095 01:01:22,940 --> 01:01:24,780 inspiration for me to move forward. 1096 01:01:24,780 --> 01:01:27,180 But that's pretty much it for today's episode. 1097 01:01:27,180 --> 01:01:28,580 So to wrap things up, 1098 01:01:28,580 --> 01:01:30,780 don't forget to download your favorite
