1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,280 So the big question is this, how do young men like us, who didn't listen to society, 2 00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:14,860 who are on our own, how do we grow and improve ourselves so that we can live a better tomorrow? 3 00:00:14,860 --> 00:00:18,200 That is the question and this show will give you the answers. 4 00:00:18,200 --> 00:00:28,560 My name is James Radzynski and welcome to the Ascend Momentum Show. 5 00:00:28,560 --> 00:00:30,360 Welcome back. 6 00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:35,920 So I want to talk about yesterday's episode. 7 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:46,520 I think that I want to do that again, but not until I build up a lot more notes. 8 00:00:46,520 --> 00:00:54,040 Because that episode I feel was really beneficial for me because I was teaching you guys a lot 9 00:00:54,040 --> 00:00:57,280 of the principles that I'm learning at the moment. 10 00:00:57,280 --> 00:01:03,240 So it's helping me get in more, like understanding more. 11 00:01:03,240 --> 00:01:08,720 And also it's beneficial for you guys because you guys are listening to the principles and 12 00:01:08,720 --> 00:01:14,200 that's definitely beneficial. 13 00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:20,960 You'll definitely get to hear my thoughts and opinions and you'll hopefully take action 14 00:01:20,960 --> 00:01:30,960 and read the book or at least start changing some habits. 15 00:01:30,960 --> 00:01:36,400 And I feel like I'm going to do that every couple of chapters once I build up a lot of 16 00:01:36,400 --> 00:01:38,400 notes. 17 00:01:38,400 --> 00:01:42,600 So maybe two more times I'll do it. 18 00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:45,840 Two or three more times over the next couple months. 19 00:01:45,840 --> 00:01:49,240 But I'm not committing to anything. 20 00:01:49,240 --> 00:01:51,560 I'll do it or I won't do it. 21 00:01:51,560 --> 00:01:53,600 I don't know. 22 00:01:53,600 --> 00:01:57,880 But let me tell you guys this. 23 00:01:57,880 --> 00:02:08,160 My dad has this really nice microphone that he uses to record like music and stuff. 24 00:02:08,160 --> 00:02:11,520 He hasn't used in a while though. 25 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:16,960 And so he gave it to me to use for podcasting. 26 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:24,040 But I spent like an hour just before starting this podcast trying to set it up and it just 27 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,720 is not working. 28 00:02:26,720 --> 00:02:34,600 So I almost, if I can figure out how to do this then my episodes will have a lot better 29 00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:36,320 quality sound. 30 00:02:36,320 --> 00:02:37,600 But yeah. 31 00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:41,600 Actually I just realized I have a fan on in the background. 32 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:50,360 So I'm going to turn that off. 33 00:02:50,360 --> 00:02:55,200 You guys are probably hearing that. 34 00:02:55,200 --> 00:02:57,240 Okay. 35 00:02:57,240 --> 00:03:07,080 So today I want to tell you guys that I am switching my routine to three days a week 36 00:03:07,080 --> 00:03:15,320 at the gym. 37 00:03:15,320 --> 00:03:23,320 Now the reason I'm doing that is because I want to have a lot more time to study. 38 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:27,480 So I've been going to the gym every single day. 39 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,440 Pretty much like seven days a week. 40 00:03:29,440 --> 00:03:36,760 Only resting every once in a while when I wanted to or when I felt I needed it. 41 00:03:36,760 --> 00:03:42,680 And I'm still waking up at my normal time, four o'clock, doing all my routine. 42 00:03:42,680 --> 00:03:52,040 But it's just that I want to use that time in the morning to study. 43 00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:55,880 Especially with school starting up in like three days. 44 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:57,720 Tomorrow is Sunday and Monday. 45 00:03:57,720 --> 00:03:58,720 Yeah. 46 00:03:58,720 --> 00:04:04,120 Today is Saturday and school starts on Tuesday. 47 00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:21,320 So that is definitely... 48 00:04:21,320 --> 00:04:24,960 School starts on Tuesday and today is Saturday. 49 00:04:24,960 --> 00:04:28,240 Yeah I'm definitely going to need that time in the morning to study. 50 00:04:28,240 --> 00:04:36,400 Because I want to get my studying in before school so I can actually focus on the important 51 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:38,000 stuff first. 52 00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,560 And then I can use the rest of my mental bandwidth for school. 53 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,680 Because that stuff is not important. 54 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:54,200 But what is important is studying training, surfing, and expert secrets. 55 00:04:54,200 --> 00:04:58,900 And I emailed my counselor to get... 56 00:04:58,900 --> 00:05:00,280 Fix my schedule. 57 00:05:00,280 --> 00:05:01,820 She hasn't responded. 58 00:05:01,820 --> 00:05:04,060 So I'm going to have to follow up on her. 59 00:05:04,060 --> 00:05:05,240 Follow up to her. 60 00:05:05,240 --> 00:05:07,960 But it doesn't really matter. 61 00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:13,680 I want to talk to you guys about a couple episodes back I announced that I am... 62 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:16,200 Here actually let me pull it up. 63 00:05:16,200 --> 00:05:18,680 A couple episodes back I announced... 64 00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:28,200 Oh I didn't announce it on an episode title. 65 00:05:28,200 --> 00:05:32,640 But I remember announcing it in my... 66 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:33,640 In the episode. 67 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:35,080 I don't remember which one. 68 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,680 But pretty much I'm going to Hawaii. 69 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:43,600 I'm going to move to Hawaii and live there and surf. 70 00:05:43,600 --> 00:05:47,120 Become a surfer. 71 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:52,800 And I've actually taken action to becoming a surfer. 72 00:05:52,800 --> 00:05:55,760 And last Tuesday I want to say. 73 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,160 Yeah last Tuesday. 74 00:05:59,160 --> 00:06:02,560 Maybe a week ago I ordered a medicine ball. 75 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:05,960 So it's just a small medicine ball. 76 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,200 Small medicine ball. 77 00:06:08,200 --> 00:06:10,280 Yes. 78 00:06:10,280 --> 00:06:13,360 Like a small medicine ball. 79 00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:17,320 And actually I'll tell you guys exactly what I ordered. 80 00:06:17,320 --> 00:06:20,320 Let me go to my... 81 00:06:20,320 --> 00:06:25,160 Let me switch accounts. 82 00:06:25,160 --> 00:06:26,160 I'll pull that up. 83 00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:30,680 But I ordered a small medicine ball and it arrived last Tuesday. 84 00:06:30,680 --> 00:06:32,600 Like this Tuesday and today is Saturday. 85 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:36,760 So Friday, Thursday, Wednesday, Tuesday. 86 00:06:36,760 --> 00:06:40,200 Four days ago it arrived. 87 00:06:40,200 --> 00:06:47,760 And so I started my routine on Wednesday. 88 00:06:47,760 --> 00:06:56,600 Every morning I've been practicing my balance on it for 10 minutes every single morning. 89 00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:59,160 And I do that after my workout. 90 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,080 Or not my workout. 91 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:04,560 I do that after my meditation. 92 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:08,000 So the ball that I just pulled it up on Amazon. 93 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:14,760 The ball that I ordered is called the F2C 10 pounds medicine ball. 94 00:07:14,760 --> 00:07:22,560 Workout med ball for core strength, balance, coordination, exercise, non-slip rubber, shell, 95 00:07:22,560 --> 00:07:25,240 textured surface. 96 00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:27,320 So that's a long description. 97 00:07:27,320 --> 00:07:30,800 But I got the blue version. 98 00:07:30,800 --> 00:07:36,840 And pretty much I just stand on it and balance. 99 00:07:36,840 --> 00:07:42,520 And I just stand on it barefoot and just try and balance on it. 100 00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:46,360 And then I try and do squats on it. 101 00:07:46,360 --> 00:07:48,520 So I go... 102 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:53,040 If you guys are familiar with the resting squat, it's basically like when you squat 103 00:07:53,040 --> 00:07:55,480 all the way down to where you're just sitting essentially. 104 00:07:55,480 --> 00:07:59,480 But you're still like squatted down. 105 00:07:59,480 --> 00:08:03,000 And I try to do that. 106 00:08:03,000 --> 00:08:06,280 I get all the way down to a resting squat and then come back up. 107 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,600 Right now my record is four. 108 00:08:08,600 --> 00:08:14,840 And I almost got my fifth but I fell off right when I got up. 109 00:08:14,840 --> 00:08:17,760 So technically I got five but I'm not counting it. 110 00:08:17,760 --> 00:08:19,200 Because I'll just beat it. 111 00:08:19,200 --> 00:08:20,760 I'll just get like six tomorrow. 112 00:08:20,760 --> 00:08:24,240 It doesn't really matter what I'm at right now. 113 00:08:24,240 --> 00:08:29,560 But really only 10 minutes a day, consistent practice, you get so good. 114 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:35,360 I mean I have been practicing it more than 10 minutes because I do the 10 minutes in 115 00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:36,360 the morning. 116 00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:38,920 But then I do... 117 00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:42,400 I just balance on it whenever I'm near it. 118 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:46,240 I leave it right outside of my room under my chair. 119 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:48,240 I have a chair outside of my room. 120 00:08:48,240 --> 00:08:50,040 And I leave it under there. 121 00:08:50,040 --> 00:08:55,560 And then whenever I'm cooking food or whenever I'm just hanging out, I just balance. 122 00:08:55,560 --> 00:09:01,200 So after the 10 minutes of consistent practice, I don't really have structured practice throughout 123 00:09:01,200 --> 00:09:02,200 the day. 124 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:07,240 The only structure I have is 10 minutes every day in the morning. 125 00:09:07,240 --> 00:09:13,320 But once that gets too easy, once I'm able to do a bunch of squats really easily, I'm 126 00:09:13,320 --> 00:09:20,800 probably going to move it up to trying to walk around on it or try to go to my tippy 127 00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,120 toes on it. 128 00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:26,600 Or I'll figure something out. 129 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:27,840 Or do like one foot. 130 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:32,240 I tried one foot and it seems impossible. 131 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:38,320 But yeah, so pretty much this is helping me to become a better surfer. 132 00:09:38,320 --> 00:09:42,200 And you gotta have good balance to be a surfer. 133 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:50,600 And that's what I'm training my balance. 134 00:09:50,600 --> 00:09:58,080 So last episode I talked about how I am in the top 1%. 135 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:02,680 I'm already in the 1% club of podcasts. 136 00:10:02,680 --> 00:10:10,040 Now in real time right now, I've only posted 19 episodes, but I'm recording my 24th episode 137 00:10:10,040 --> 00:10:13,920 right now and I've got 23 episodes already lined up. 138 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:16,620 Like four more are scheduled. 139 00:10:16,620 --> 00:10:18,200 And this is my 24th. 140 00:10:18,200 --> 00:10:24,400 So technically I'm already in the top 1%, but I'm not actually yet because I just have 141 00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:26,360 two more episodes. 142 00:10:26,360 --> 00:10:33,000 So Monday morning I will be in the top 1% of podcasters. 143 00:10:33,000 --> 00:10:36,520 And that's insane to me. 144 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:47,080 It's 99% of podcasters give up before their 21st episode. 145 00:10:47,080 --> 00:10:49,360 That's so crazy. 146 00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:57,000 That's just three weeks and 99% of your you've already be out 99% of your competition in 147 00:10:57,000 --> 00:10:58,780 the money world in wealth. 148 00:10:58,780 --> 00:11:04,520 If you beat out 99% of your competition already, if you're if you have more money than 99% 149 00:11:04,520 --> 00:11:08,800 of your competitors, so basically 99% of the world. 150 00:11:08,800 --> 00:11:10,320 I mean, you're going to have a lot of money. 151 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:20,680 I think the top 1% of top 1% income. 152 00:11:20,680 --> 00:11:24,720 650,000 a year. 153 00:11:24,720 --> 00:11:28,760 That's actually not that much. 154 00:11:28,760 --> 00:11:29,760 In the world. 155 00:11:29,760 --> 00:11:30,760 That's in. 156 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:32,860 Oh, in the world. 157 00:11:32,860 --> 00:11:33,860 It's even lower. 158 00:11:33,860 --> 00:11:38,400 Five hundred and thirty seven thousand dollars per year to be in the top 1%. 159 00:11:38,400 --> 00:11:43,960 Yeah, that's not that's not that much. 160 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:51,920 But that just means once you get that point, then you're like already competing with all 161 00:11:51,920 --> 00:11:54,720 the that's where your real competition is. 162 00:11:54,720 --> 00:11:57,360 So I've gotten top 1%. 163 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:03,640 So now my real competition is the twenty thousand other podcasts that have made it past. 164 00:12:03,640 --> 00:12:06,520 And literally all you have to do is just post every day. 165 00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:08,800 In the beginning, you can go back and see. 166 00:12:08,800 --> 00:12:14,560 I had no idea what I was doing and I still don't know what I'm doing. 167 00:12:14,560 --> 00:12:23,000 I'm still recording on a tiny little voice recorder, but I've got like six subscribers 168 00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:32,840 and that's insane to me because here let me actually look at my analytics. 169 00:12:32,840 --> 00:12:38,040 Between average subscribers, seven, but one of them is my friend. 170 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:41,800 So I'm not counting that. 171 00:12:41,800 --> 00:12:42,800 Four months. 172 00:12:42,800 --> 00:12:44,260 They give you a chart. 173 00:12:44,260 --> 00:12:52,760 So I started my first episode was posted on July 24th. 174 00:12:52,760 --> 00:12:58,200 So in July, I had 59 downloads. 175 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:05,480 In August, I have 172 downloads, so I'm just on an upward trend and I don't I don't like 176 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:07,840 post ads or anything. 177 00:13:07,840 --> 00:13:12,840 This is just purely from the algorithm. 178 00:13:12,840 --> 00:13:15,240 Sending my video to people. 179 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,120 That's just simply that. 180 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:21,660 It's just because I've been posting every single day for 19 episodes. 181 00:13:21,660 --> 00:13:24,320 Not that difficult. 182 00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:31,400 And so my all time. 183 00:13:31,400 --> 00:13:39,960 My all time downloads is 231 and I got seven downloads today. 184 00:13:39,960 --> 00:13:48,640 So seven people listen to my stuff today and right now my most downloaded episode is my 185 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:56,840 it's a tie between my trailer and my episode one and those were my worst episodes and I 186 00:13:56,840 --> 00:14:03,640 think that they're only they only have so much downloads is because either they're really 187 00:14:03,640 --> 00:14:04,640 short. 188 00:14:04,640 --> 00:14:10,840 No, I put my prediction is because they're simply been out there the longest. 189 00:14:10,840 --> 00:14:14,880 So the this is what I was listening to. 190 00:14:14,880 --> 00:14:21,440 I listened to a part of that podcast by where I heard that quote. 191 00:14:21,440 --> 00:14:24,840 It was Modern Wisdom's podcast. 192 00:14:24,840 --> 00:14:29,680 And if you want to find it, it's just look up how many podcasts make it past episode 193 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:35,400 21 on Google and then you'll see an article and then click on that article. 194 00:14:35,400 --> 00:14:40,080 It'll take you to like a like one of the hyperlinks in the article is like a disk. 195 00:14:40,080 --> 00:14:42,680 It's like a discord post or something like or not discord. 196 00:14:42,680 --> 00:14:45,280 It's like a Reddit post or something like that. 197 00:14:45,280 --> 00:14:51,240 And then there's a link in that Reddit post saying like 54 minutes and some seconds and 198 00:14:51,240 --> 00:14:54,280 then that takes you to the podcast. 199 00:14:54,280 --> 00:15:07,080 And if you go to that, then that is they talk about that and consistency is so crazy. 200 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:13,040 And they were saying if you post one or two episodes right now and that's it. 201 00:15:13,040 --> 00:15:18,160 Yeah, it's not like even like three episodes. 202 00:15:18,160 --> 00:15:23,480 You're already in like the top 90 90% or something like that. 203 00:15:23,480 --> 00:15:34,480 But what was I saying? 204 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:44,280 Yeah, the podcast. 205 00:15:44,280 --> 00:15:49,960 So it's on the tip of my tongue. 206 00:15:49,960 --> 00:15:58,120 Why can't I for so I was talking about the amount of podcast episodes you have to post 207 00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:01,760 to get into top 1% is 21. 208 00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:10,080 But they were saying if you post like 21 episodes and then just leave it well in a year from 209 00:16:10,080 --> 00:16:14,960 now that's going to have like a lot more impact because it'll be out there or something like 210 00:16:14,960 --> 00:16:15,960 that. 211 00:16:15,960 --> 00:16:22,440 And so if you post every single day for a whole year that you'll have 365 episodes. 212 00:16:22,440 --> 00:16:27,240 That means that once you post and then they were talking about like once you post your 213 00:16:27,240 --> 00:16:34,800 366 episode that's not one more that's like exponentially better. 214 00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:41,860 So they were saying the more you post the better it gets. 215 00:16:41,860 --> 00:16:47,160 So it's kind of if you know what an exponential graph looks like right now I'm at the beginning 216 00:16:47,160 --> 00:16:49,160 of the exponential graph. 217 00:16:49,160 --> 00:16:58,240 Today the algorithm is giving me 59 downloads last month and 172 downloads this month and 218 00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:00,520 I'm not even done with this month. 219 00:17:00,520 --> 00:17:04,600 And last month was like not even a full month I started on the 24th. 220 00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:09,120 So it was like seven days and I got 59 downloads. 221 00:17:09,120 --> 00:17:15,960 So I think that the algorithm really likes consistency and keeping at it because I have 222 00:17:15,960 --> 00:17:22,960 172 downloads just in 12 days. 223 00:17:22,960 --> 00:17:27,360 So interpret that however you like. 224 00:17:27,360 --> 00:17:35,640 I will be by the time the majority of you guys are listening to this my prediction is 225 00:17:35,640 --> 00:17:43,240 I will be have posted a significant amount of episodes already and you guys heard one 226 00:17:43,240 --> 00:17:49,400 of my episodes that I posted and then thought that you liked it so then you went back and 227 00:17:49,400 --> 00:17:54,720 started binge listening to all of the episodes that I posted prior and you've gotten to this 228 00:17:54,720 --> 00:18:02,240 episode episode 24 and I'm telling you exactly where I'm at right now. 229 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:11,120 I have no I have 200 downloads and my YouTube channels even worse. 230 00:18:11,120 --> 00:18:19,800 I have it post to YouTube but I have to click a button to post it there and so I don't get 231 00:18:19,800 --> 00:18:24,640 the perk of posting at the same time every single day. 232 00:18:24,640 --> 00:18:30,840 It's like a different time and so I posted all of my videos onto YouTube but they're 233 00:18:30,840 --> 00:18:35,440 all their daily uploads but they're all at different times of day. 234 00:18:35,440 --> 00:18:41,120 So like yesterday I posted at like 8 o'clock in the morning but maybe three days ago I 235 00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:48,520 posted that video like 4 o'clock in the afternoon so it's not all at the same time which I think 236 00:18:48,520 --> 00:18:54,800 is a disadvantage but they are not giving me that much views. 237 00:18:54,800 --> 00:19:07,840 Like in my analytics on YouTube it's like nothing I have 14 views total 14 views so 238 00:19:07,840 --> 00:19:17,960 people they're not really giving me that much reach but I'm not really focused on YouTube 239 00:19:17,960 --> 00:19:24,080 I don't really care I'm just I'm just posting it on YouTube only because it's just one button 240 00:19:24,080 --> 00:19:29,520 to click on rss.com is what I use for my podcast. 241 00:19:29,520 --> 00:19:34,640 You literally just click one button once it's once your video is published you click that 242 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:40,280 button and then it just posts to YouTube. 243 00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:47,720 So it's just one click I might as well post to a whole other platform and it's unfortunate 244 00:19:47,720 --> 00:19:54,040 because you have to publish the episode before you post it to YouTube and you can't like 245 00:19:54,040 --> 00:20:03,240 automate it to my knowledge you cannot but that's okay I'm just focused on RSS and it's 246 00:20:03,240 --> 00:20:16,720 awesome because currently most like I have like three listeners who are my most viewed 247 00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,880 listeners and they're both that all three of them are in different parts of the world 248 00:20:21,880 --> 00:20:27,760 well they're actually all in America but I actually have one person who listens from 249 00:20:27,760 --> 00:20:37,240 like Germany which is awesome or no it's Belgium. 250 00:20:37,240 --> 00:20:48,320 So they give you a graph or a map on rss.com downloads by location and you can see all 251 00:20:48,320 --> 00:20:56,080 the different places where people have downloaded it so it's essentially where people are who 252 00:20:56,080 --> 00:21:02,880 have listened to an episode and it's a darker color the more they downloaded so there's 253 00:21:02,880 --> 00:21:11,120 one person who lives in like Iowa or something like that who you're probably listening to 254 00:21:11,120 --> 00:21:20,000 right now and a little freaked out that I know where you live but that person has yeah 255 00:21:20,000 --> 00:21:29,040 Kansas also and Washington those people have listened the most and that's cool so I have 256 00:21:29,040 --> 00:21:34,560 people who have listened to multiple episodes those people are probably following on my 257 00:21:34,560 --> 00:21:44,920 journey and most people are listening on Windows PC on a PC Windows and they're using Google 258 00:21:44,920 --> 00:21:54,560 Chrome yeah this is a this is cool looking at the stuff and it's just getting better 259 00:21:54,560 --> 00:22:01,800 every day like my downloads per day is usually up every single day so they give you like 260 00:22:01,800 --> 00:22:12,000 a green or red depending on how many downloads you've had yeah it's cool alright but let's 261 00:22:12,000 --> 00:22:26,040 talk about my current where I'm at in business I'm gonna be honest I got that I got permission 262 00:22:26,040 --> 00:22:33,040 from the fire shop to work on their funnel and I've just been slacking I've not done 263 00:22:33,040 --> 00:22:40,720 like I built like the funnel structure but I'm just held up on the coloring and I'm just 264 00:22:40,720 --> 00:22:47,440 using as an excuse I'm getting distracted but I'm focusing on studying right now and 265 00:22:47,440 --> 00:22:55,880 just enjoying the last couple days of summer I know that I'm still moving forward because 266 00:22:55,880 --> 00:23:01,800 I'm still learning a lot more and I'm I probably studied trans surfing for like two hours this 267 00:23:01,800 --> 00:23:15,320 morning and I wrote a lot it's so I'm like forming my brain to adhere to the transfer 268 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:26,440 of your principles which is huge so right now I only have like a hundred dollars in 269 00:23:26,440 --> 00:23:35,280 my bank account and I'm gonna buy some tickets there's this thing I have a limiting belief 270 00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:43,160 I don't want to buy the tickets to Florida yet but playing tickets to Florida yet because 271 00:23:43,160 --> 00:23:51,800 I don't want my mom to find out but I do want to make money first and then tell her about 272 00:23:51,800 --> 00:23:57,560 it and then buy the tickets like I don't want her to find out before I start making money 273 00:23:57,560 --> 00:24:12,080 because I think that it'd be better that way so I'm trying to make some money first and 274 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:19,240 then buy the tickets but then again it's also like principle of transfer if you're not supposed 275 00:24:19,240 --> 00:24:26,000 to focus on the money you're supposed to focus on the goal so focusing on the goal and not 276 00:24:26,000 --> 00:24:34,240 worried about the money money will just come but as I walk towards my goal of building 277 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:44,160 funnels money will happen on its own it'll be an extra attribute the funnel hacking live 278 00:24:44,160 --> 00:24:49,000 is gonna be pretty fun we're probably gonna leave on like the 23rd or the 24th and stay 279 00:24:49,000 --> 00:25:03,760 a little bit before yeah so today I did not go to the park I just studied for like an 280 00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:12,040 hour and I also make sauerkraut sauerkraut it's really good for you and I make it I make 281 00:25:12,040 --> 00:25:17,320 homemade sauerkraut it's really easy you just have to get like jars and then you just look 282 00:25:17,320 --> 00:25:21,720 it up you'll figure it out but in the beginning I sucked at making it and I probably made 283 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:29,560 like 10 batches by now and I'm really good at it now and the I made two batches today 284 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:35,760 so six days worth of sauerkraut and that will be done fermenting like next week around this 285 00:25:35,760 --> 00:25:51,920 time and I think that this is my best batch yet 286 00:25:51,920 --> 00:26:03,480 so in my studies yesterday on or no this morning in my studies this morning on transsurfing 287 00:26:03,480 --> 00:26:15,520 importance and the from battle to balance so if you're don't stress about creating too 288 00:26:15,520 --> 00:26:21,420 much excess potential just make sure you're not tipping the scales too much everyone creates 289 00:26:21,420 --> 00:26:28,120 a little excess potential here and there just don't stress about it unless you're creating 290 00:26:28,120 --> 00:26:39,840 a lot of excess potential and if you face a problem well problems only arise because 291 00:26:39,840 --> 00:26:48,660 you place too much importance on something so I face the problem that my this mic it's 292 00:26:48,660 --> 00:27:01,720 a blue snowball mic it's an old one it the problem is that it doesn't work with my computer 293 00:27:01,720 --> 00:27:08,000 and so I reminded myself that I place too much excess potential on something or I place 294 00:27:08,000 --> 00:27:16,000 too much importance on something I gave something I attributed something excess meaning so the 295 00:27:16,000 --> 00:27:21,800 only way to solve the problem is to first reduce the amount of importance that I place 296 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:33,840 on whatever caused the snowball to not work and then and then the solution will appear 297 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:43,080 and it's always a straightforward solution the problem usually just dissipates and I'm 298 00:27:43,080 --> 00:27:49,520 gonna be honest I failed I place too much importance on having a better microphone and 299 00:27:49,520 --> 00:27:54,480 with so there's two types of importance there's inner importance and outer importance inner 300 00:27:54,480 --> 00:28:01,880 importance is importance that you place on yourself and inside of you so I am an important 301 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:13,060 person or I do important work and then outer importance is importance you place on extra 302 00:28:13,060 --> 00:28:21,040 internal defense or objects so this water bottle is really important to me or it's really 303 00:28:21,040 --> 00:28:29,880 important to me that I go to the park today so if I place excess meaning on my water bottle 304 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:34,720 well it's probably a scratch or something's gonna happen to it there's an example where 305 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:43,880 if you place excess importance excess meaning on your car and you obsess over keeping it 306 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:53,200 clean you drive extremely careful to not like scratch it or bump it or crash it well you're 307 00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:59,200 creating a lot of excess potential you're destroying the balance and the only way to 308 00:28:59,200 --> 00:29:06,760 bring back bring back the balance is to do something to the car and the car will definitely 309 00:29:06,760 --> 00:29:14,600 get scratched or you will definitely crash it or something because if you think about 310 00:29:14,600 --> 00:29:22,720 the car is worthless the car is a neutral object it's the same value as literally anything 311 00:29:22,720 --> 00:29:29,080 else you're just placing so much excess meaning on it you're destroying the balance so it 312 00:29:29,080 --> 00:29:34,600 makes sense when I was first reading Transurfing I had a lot of limiting beliefs about it and 313 00:29:34,600 --> 00:29:40,840 I didn't know I didn't believe that it was real or I was trying to convince myself that 314 00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:47,360 it was real but now reading it a second time through it's like this stuff just makes sense 315 00:29:47,360 --> 00:29:54,640 if you the world is always trying to maintain balance night and day the waves going in and 316 00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:06,360 out at the beach lots of things world is always trying to maintain homeostasis equilibrium 317 00:30:06,360 --> 00:30:14,520 now balance doesn't exist like true balance doesn't exist but the world is always trying 318 00:30:14,520 --> 00:30:24,160 to maintain a state of balance so if you destroy the balance with your thoughts well bad things 319 00:30:24,160 --> 00:30:31,320 are going to happen because that's the only way to maintain the balance all this stuff 320 00:30:31,320 --> 00:30:39,920 just makes sense to me now and I'm just reading it again so I can get it in and actually start 321 00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:51,360 to understand it and take action on it but what I was saying about the car you place 322 00:30:51,360 --> 00:31:03,200 too much importance on it and something will happen so all you have to do is reduce the 323 00:31:03,200 --> 00:31:15,200 importance so and there's a what was I about to say there was something yeah once you once 324 00:31:15,200 --> 00:31:28,080 you remove or stop the excess balance or oh yeah once you remove once you stop attributing 325 00:31:28,080 --> 00:31:39,440 importance then balances immediately restore and the only way to gain the freedom of choice 326 00:31:39,440 --> 00:31:46,280 and the freedom of choice is essentially the freedom to choose your own path in life so 327 00:31:46,280 --> 00:31:52,640 you can choose to work a nine-to-five job for the rest of your life and be miserable 328 00:31:52,640 --> 00:32:04,480 or you can choose to move to Hawaii and surf be a surfer become a surfer and so I'm going 329 00:32:04,480 --> 00:32:10,840 to choose the latter that's that's my choice and everyone chooses but the way you gain 330 00:32:10,840 --> 00:32:18,400 choice because everyone has the right to choose but not and not everyone knows how to because 331 00:32:18,400 --> 00:32:24,120 there's too much importance everyone has too much importance so the the only way to gain 332 00:32:24,120 --> 00:32:34,440 the freedom of choice to actually regain retain that choice is to drop importance and that's 333 00:32:34,440 --> 00:32:44,360 like the basics of trans surfing that's the principle foundation and I'm on the induced 334 00:32:44,360 --> 00:32:50,160 transition chapter which is after balance and I only have six pages left so I'll be 335 00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:56,560 done with that and then the next one is the alternatives flow which will try take me a 336 00:32:56,560 --> 00:33:03,600 couple days or weeks and then is intention and intention is the chapter that I'm most 337 00:33:03,600 --> 00:33:09,640 excited for because that's where you learn about inner intention and outer intention 338 00:33:09,640 --> 00:33:18,120 which is really how you achieve your goals and my first read through I didn't really 339 00:33:18,120 --> 00:33:22,400 understand what I was reading I was just trying to figure things out this is my first time 340 00:33:22,400 --> 00:33:27,960 and it was really complicated and it was like shattering my worldview so I wasn't picking 341 00:33:27,960 --> 00:33:34,560 up on everything or understanding everything so I interpreted it as inner intention was 342 00:33:34,560 --> 00:33:44,160 bad and should be avoided and only only have outer intention but after finishing it the 343 00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:49,920 first time through I realized that inner you need inner intention and inner intention is 344 00:33:49,920 --> 00:33:59,840 not bad and so I'm excited to read through it again with my current knowledge base and 345 00:33:59,840 --> 00:34:05,040 I'll be even more prepared because I'll have I'll be even more prepared to read it once 346 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:11,560 I get there because I'll have read another chapter of the induce or the alternatives 347 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:29,680 flow I'm gonna look up yeah back to back to the number one high like top 1% of podcasts 348 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:38,160 back to that it's so easy can you like if you can't do something every single day alright 349 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:47,200 so all you have to do to be in the top 1% club of podcasters the top 1% of podcasters 350 00:34:47,200 --> 00:34:55,040 in the entire world like not many people can say their top 1% at anything in the entire 351 00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:00,800 world and I just achieved it in 21 days and anyone can achieve in 21 days it's not that 352 00:35:00,800 --> 00:35:12,920 hard and so all you have to do is post daily for 21 days and then you're in the top 1% 353 00:35:12,920 --> 00:35:24,360 of all podcasters in the world so I'm trying to get a good microphone if I can't figure 354 00:35:24,360 --> 00:35:34,280 out how to fix this blue snowball microphone then I'm gonna buy a new microphone because 355 00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:40,980 I'm expecting to get some more traction I mean I am getting more traction the more and 356 00:35:40,980 --> 00:35:52,020 more I post but I'm trying to my current my current quality of content is good I feel 357 00:35:52,020 --> 00:36:00,280 it's a lot better than it was at the beginning but the audio quality is just not up to par 358 00:36:00,280 --> 00:36:06,120 it was okay in the beginning because no one was listening but now I'm 20 I'm on like episode 359 00:36:06,120 --> 00:36:15,360 24 yeah episode 24 so people are gonna start listening to my podcast soon so I gotta give 360 00:36:15,360 --> 00:36:23,000 them some good stuff to listen to I want them to actually be able to bear an hour of listening 361 00:36:23,000 --> 00:36:31,760 to it because I'm not sure if I don't think that this voice recorder is that great it's 362 00:36:31,760 --> 00:36:36,580 literally a voice recorder I got to record myself at night to record my dreams but I 363 00:36:36,580 --> 00:36:44,360 never used it I paid 50 bucks for it I never used it but I started using it today or not 364 00:36:44,360 --> 00:37:00,400 today 25 days ago I did start I actually didn't start uploading every day so I started uploading 365 00:37:00,400 --> 00:37:06,640 every day with my trailer like 25 days ago but I wasn't that wasn't when I started recording 366 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:15,360 I started recording 14 days earlier than that I recorded 14 episodes but I just never posted 367 00:37:15,360 --> 00:37:19,960 any of them and those were basically just practice me building expanding my comfort 368 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:26,480 zone to the point where I was comfortable enough to actually put myself out there and 369 00:37:26,480 --> 00:37:33,680 I just started brand new episodes so I won't I'm kind of curious I'm not gonna do it anytime 370 00:37:33,680 --> 00:37:39,160 soon but eventually I'm gonna go back and listen to those episodes and see see all the 371 00:37:39,160 --> 00:37:52,120 progress that I made because even like I think so this is episode 24 24 plus 14 is 38 so 372 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:58,800 that's like that's 38 days ago it's less than two months ago that's a little over a month 373 00:37:58,800 --> 00:38:12,760 and a week ago is when I yeah I've grown so much in one month in one week yeah and how 374 00:38:12,760 --> 00:38:35,840 many days till days till September 23rd 42 okay so that means that in two days so literally 375 00:38:35,840 --> 00:38:43,960 Monday on Monday when I joined the top 1% club of podcasters on Monday I will be halfway 376 00:38:43,960 --> 00:38:51,560 through from where I started recording my first episode till where I am gonna go to 377 00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:59,080 Florida I'll be halfway there or half it so on Monday is like the half of this the midpoint 378 00:38:59,080 --> 00:39:08,160 and if I grew that much I grew this much in just 38 days 40 I have 42 days until September 379 00:39:08,160 --> 00:39:17,640 42 days that's a long time 42 days so I'll have 42 days of studying expert secrets and 380 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,640 reality training surfing and I'll probably finish expert secrets within the next two 381 00:39:22,640 --> 00:39:29,640 weeks so I'll either I don't know what I'll do after that I'll try read through dot com 382 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:37,000 or I ordered his new book called the what is it called the lynchpin it's called the 383 00:39:37,000 --> 00:39:45,360 lynchpin and I'm pretty sure he made it like recently because he is all of a sudden now 384 00:39:45,360 --> 00:39:50,240 emailing his entire list a lot about it and trying to get people in on it and I bought 385 00:39:50,240 --> 00:39:57,160 it the first email I saw about it because I know if he is if he made a new book he's 386 00:39:57,160 --> 00:40:04,640 trying to sell it for free like well the seven dollar shipping free then I'm definitely gonna 387 00:40:04,640 --> 00:40:12,680 get it because I paid like $20 each for dot com secrets extra secrets and traffic secrets 388 00:40:12,680 --> 00:40:19,160 so I will definitely buy the lynchpin because he said that that is what is needed so I'm 389 00:40:19,160 --> 00:40:29,640 gonna listen to him but it's supposed I bought it like yesterday or two days ago I think 390 00:40:29,640 --> 00:40:40,960 yesterday and it's supposed to come in seven to ten business days so like two weeks probably 391 00:40:40,960 --> 00:40:47,780 so yeah I'll probably be done with expert secrets by that point and I bet by the time 392 00:40:47,780 --> 00:40:52,320 I finish the extra secrets it will not be here so I'll just read through dot com secrets 393 00:40:52,320 --> 00:41:01,720 and not study it but I'll just read it quickly and then hopefully by the time I'm done with 394 00:41:01,720 --> 00:41:18,480 dot com secrets the lynchpin will be here and then I'll read that and 38 days ago is 395 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:26,640 when I started recording my podcast when I started practicing for podcasting 38 days 396 00:41:26,640 --> 00:41:35,040 ago I wasn't even studying every day for the past 38 days I only started studying maybe 397 00:41:35,040 --> 00:41:41,440 like two weeks ago I actually talked about it when I when I realized that I should start 398 00:41:41,440 --> 00:41:51,960 studying it was like episode I don't even know which episode I realized it was before 399 00:41:51,960 --> 00:41:58,480 episode 14 because episode 14 was when yeah it was probably like a couple days before 400 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:07,720 episode 14 because episode 14 was when I realized how good it was if you haven't listened to 401 00:42:07,720 --> 00:42:14,720 that that's one of my best episodes that and episode 20 episode 20 hasn't even been released 402 00:42:14,720 --> 00:42:35,240 yet yeah I'm sorry these past couple episodes haven't been that great I mean you know what 403 00:42:35,240 --> 00:42:41,960 it's because I'm not focused I'm having my I'm on my computer literally while I'm talking 404 00:42:41,960 --> 00:42:47,920 to you so what I'm gonna turn off the computer that is terrible why am I doing this I'm gonna 405 00:42:47,920 --> 00:42:54,880 go like this boom all right I'm gonna do what I did a couple days ago and open a random 406 00:42:54,880 --> 00:43:07,120 page on my book all right yeah this quote I've repeated this quote a lot I actually 407 00:43:07,120 --> 00:43:16,720 memorized it if you hear something you forget it wait what this is not the quote that I 408 00:43:16,720 --> 00:43:24,800 was talking about I said hear it once you forget but if you keep going back over it 409 00:43:24,800 --> 00:43:41,320 oh if you keep going back over it it can change you 410 00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:55,280 this was on the 28th what was I doing on the 28th of August or September or July July 28 411 00:43:55,280 --> 00:44:12,720 doesn't matter on the 27th wait what was what day was it 38 days ago what day was it 38 412 00:44:12,720 --> 00:44:37,080 days ago July 5th 413 00:44:37,080 --> 00:44:44,000 is the one thing that I just failed you guys on literally like two minutes ago I said that 414 00:44:44,000 --> 00:44:48,240 I wasn't gonna go on my computer and then I literally just went on my computer I was 415 00:44:48,240 --> 00:44:58,640 literally asleep all right it's time to wake up time to be awake quit being distracted 416 00:44:58,640 --> 00:45:06,560 I'm I'm actually I'm gonna put my keyboard and my mouse on the other side of my desk 417 00:45:06,560 --> 00:45:21,080 when I record now so in when I was over the past 20 episodes I would always just wing 418 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:29,400 it and not really plan my episode out and just thoughts would come to me throughout 419 00:45:29,400 --> 00:45:39,760 the whole episode but after episode 20 like episode 21 or whenever I had that bad day 420 00:45:39,760 --> 00:45:46,440 my I just can't seem to get into that flow again and I predict that it was because I 421 00:45:46,440 --> 00:45:51,760 keep on looking on my computer and distracting myself and looking in my journal and distracting 422 00:45:51,760 --> 00:45:59,280 myself I just gotta focus on one thing and if you notice that literally the second I 423 00:45:59,280 --> 00:46:04,920 stopped looking at my computer I'm actually a lot more focused now I'm in the zone and 424 00:46:04,920 --> 00:46:11,320 I want to talk about that that is one of the things I learned in the four hour work week 425 00:46:11,320 --> 00:46:18,760 and I learned it from a hamza originally and I heard of a book that gets into it called 426 00:46:18,760 --> 00:46:28,000 deep work and I might I really want to read it but I know that I just got to focus on 427 00:46:28,000 --> 00:46:32,720 trans surfing and expert secrets and I've got a lot of books on my plate right now if 428 00:46:32,720 --> 00:46:40,080 you just heard me two minutes ago talk about the next books that I'm gonna read and I know 429 00:46:40,080 --> 00:46:46,040 I need to read that but I know that I already know all most of the principles on it I cut 430 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:52,320 out social media I cut out distractions it's just I didn't cut out the distractions and 431 00:46:52,320 --> 00:46:59,240 also I just got to cut out the distractions while I'm podcasting and then it'll go a lot 432 00:46:59,240 --> 00:47:06,920 smoothly so I can't have my keyboard close to me I just have to put the timer on and 433 00:47:06,920 --> 00:47:21,720 then move the keyboard aside so I want to talk to you guys about time time is an essential 434 00:47:21,720 --> 00:47:32,320 piece it's an essential resource everyone has time but not everyone but nobody can get 435 00:47:32,320 --> 00:47:44,200 more of it and a lot of people like to waste time and I'm not trying to waste my time because 436 00:47:44,200 --> 00:47:51,160 people were telling me that it's just 45 extra minutes to add another period add another 437 00:47:51,160 --> 00:47:59,180 class to my schedule no that's actually like 250 hours I didn't do the math but my friend 438 00:47:59,180 --> 00:48:10,240 said that it's like 250 hours extra time invested over the entire semester so 250 hours instead 439 00:48:10,240 --> 00:48:21,360 of 45 minutes that's a lot of time I could read trans surfing all the way through and 440 00:48:21,360 --> 00:48:29,880 study it deeply in 250 hours so I'd rather do that than go to one extra period every 441 00:48:29,880 --> 00:48:38,040 day so that's why I am dropping all my classes except for my required classes for senior 442 00:48:38,040 --> 00:48:47,960 year first semester and I will have graduated after first semester and I'm going to have 443 00:48:47,960 --> 00:48:53,800 English first period English second period because I only have two credits left for English 444 00:48:53,800 --> 00:48:59,060 and I the only other thing left is gym and so I'll have gym third period and then lunch 445 00:48:59,060 --> 00:49:09,880 fourth period and I won't go to lunch I'll just leave so that's that's it I just have 446 00:49:09,880 --> 00:49:18,880 three periods every day so that's like 750 hours invested left to get instead of however 447 00:49:18,880 --> 00:49:33,560 much I would have had to go to eight so two times eight is 16 250 times eight doesn't 448 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:42,400 even matter that's a big number it's actually 2,000 hours 2,000 hours if you have a full 449 00:49:42,400 --> 00:49:48,320 schedule that's how much you're investing plus homework I didn't even add homework so 450 00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:57,040 I'm doing more than 500 hours but that is crazy 2,000 hours for one semester for one 451 00:49:57,040 --> 00:50:05,160 year it's 4,000 hours for four years it's 16,000 hours plus homework so probably like 452 00:50:05,160 --> 00:50:13,920 at least 20,000 hours so would you rather go to school like everyone else all of high 453 00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:20,680 school and be normal like everyone else and join the crowd of everyone else and by the 454 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:27,400 way everyone else lives lives like everyone else if you act like everyone else you don't 455 00:50:27,400 --> 00:50:38,440 get to live like everyone else or would you rather become an expert in two things and 456 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:46,380 not be like everyone else you invest 20,000 hours over four years into school but you 457 00:50:46,380 --> 00:50:56,440 are no expert a school high school education is no expert it's just it's just a waste of 458 00:50:56,440 --> 00:51:06,980 time yeah you're getting benefits but or you could become an expert in two different fields 459 00:51:06,980 --> 00:51:16,520 there is a study that there's it's like the common term that everyone knows that you need 460 00:51:16,520 --> 00:51:23,680 10,000 hours of practice to become an expert well you get that over two over four years 461 00:51:23,680 --> 00:51:30,960 of high school but you are no expert at high school I don't even know what you become an 462 00:51:30,960 --> 00:51:41,600 expert at nothing it's just it's just a waste honestly so I only have 500 hours left of 463 00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:50,640 indentured time honestly I might even drop out we'll see no I have 750 hours left because 464 00:51:50,640 --> 00:51:59,040 of gym yeah I might drop out I don't know it depends on if if my business takes off 465 00:51:59,040 --> 00:52:13,200 before I'll drop out but if not then I'll stay in and a couple days ago I told my mom 466 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:22,280 about my podcast but I told her not to listen to it so I'm realizing that my mom is gonna 467 00:52:22,280 --> 00:52:29,120 come through and listen to all these episodes but I'm still gonna try not to censor myself 468 00:52:29,120 --> 00:52:37,000 because I'm not making these episodes for my mom I'm making them for you guys my dream 469 00:52:37,000 --> 00:52:43,440 customer who is basically where I was at I'm basically just documenting my journey for 470 00:52:43,440 --> 00:53:04,640 you guys 471 00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:12,160 if I gained this much knowledge in the past 38 days on business imagine how much and I 472 00:53:12,160 --> 00:53:18,040 wasn't even studying over the past 38 days I was still reading but not studying there's 473 00:53:18,040 --> 00:53:25,240 a big difference so imagine how much progress I'm gonna make in the next 40 days next 38 474 00:53:25,240 --> 00:53:33,160 days next 20 days it's gonna be it's gonna be great I'm really looking forward to the 475 00:53:33,160 --> 00:53:40,660 future honestly like I love my life right now that's the first one of the first steps 476 00:53:40,660 --> 00:53:49,280 of trans surfing is to ride the wave of fortune and all you have to do is just interpret everything 477 00:53:49,280 --> 00:53:57,120 as good and find the positive and keep positive changes like keep positive thoughts in your 478 00:53:57,120 --> 00:54:05,960 mind for a while don't forget about them and if positive changes happen in your life reminisce 479 00:54:05,960 --> 00:54:13,800 like savor those thoughts and keep them in your mind for a while and be happy about them 480 00:54:13,800 --> 00:54:22,640 because those are the messengers of the wave of fortune and the wave of fortune is a pendulum 481 00:54:22,640 --> 00:54:28,000 but it's a good it's good it's like I'm pretty sure it's the only beneficial pendulum but 482 00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:40,720 it doesn't care about your you it's just keep if you radiate that thought energy then you'll 483 00:54:40,720 --> 00:54:48,560 transmit energy into that pendulum and that pendulum will become your reality so just 484 00:54:48,560 --> 00:54:55,520 and the way you radiate thought energy of the wave of fortune is simply by noting positive 485 00:54:55,520 --> 00:55:04,280 changes in your life and keeping them in your mind for a while so one of the positive changes 486 00:55:04,280 --> 00:55:18,040 in my life today is let me think well I see I'm not even that good at this right now I 487 00:55:18,040 --> 00:55:26,320 can't even think of anything positive that happened well this is this could be interpreted 488 00:55:26,320 --> 00:55:32,560 as a negative change but everything can be interpreted negative or positive and that 489 00:55:32,560 --> 00:55:38,120 interpretation decides whether it's positive or negative so I'm gonna interpret it as positive 490 00:55:38,120 --> 00:55:48,360 over this past week and a half my grandma was in Hawaii and we babysat her dog who was 491 00:55:48,360 --> 00:56:00,160 like a less than one year old puppy very energetic very I was very happy having her but she left 492 00:56:00,160 --> 00:56:10,840 today my grandma picked her up today and but that's a positive change because my dog needs 493 00:56:10,840 --> 00:56:21,720 the alone time like my dog is pooped she's very tired from the puppy all week so it's 494 00:56:21,720 --> 00:56:30,600 positive and we get to spend more time with my dog and give her 100% of our attention 495 00:56:30,600 --> 00:56:36,400 so that's one of the positive changes that I actually didn't even make a point to think 496 00:56:36,400 --> 00:56:41,440 about and radiate the positive thought energy so I'm gonna do that once this episode is 497 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:56,520 done in like three minutes this is my last weekend before school starts and then school 498 00:56:56,520 --> 00:57:02,640 starts on Tuesday I'm actually pretty excited but I'm usually always excited for school 499 00:57:02,640 --> 00:57:10,600 to start and then around like two weeks in I'm not excited but I feel as though this 500 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:16,560 will be different this year will be different because I'm a trans surfer now and I'm studying 501 00:57:16,560 --> 00:57:28,280 trans surfing and there's always a positive so I'm looking looking for positives well 502 00:57:28,280 --> 00:57:37,680 I get to practice I get to so school is a pendulum and if you get caught by its energy 503 00:57:37,680 --> 00:57:47,000 you basically do what it wants you to do you become its inherent and your goals align with 504 00:57:47,000 --> 00:57:53,120 its goals but it's not your goals it's the your goals become their that pendulums goals 505 00:57:53,120 --> 00:57:59,000 so that pendulum basically tells you what to do but you don't know that it's you're 506 00:57:59,000 --> 00:58:05,520 doing it you feel like it's your own free will and but it's not like no one actually 507 00:58:05,520 --> 00:58:10,880 no one's goal is to actually work a nine-to-five for 40 years and save their life or save their 508 00:58:10,880 --> 00:58:16,080 money for 40 years until they retire that's just the pendulums goal and school is the 509 00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:27,160 first pendulum along that path that forms you into that adherent and so we all come 510 00:58:27,160 --> 00:58:35,160 in contact with pendulums every day and you can't just there's no way to avoid them and 511 00:58:35,160 --> 00:58:40,400 if you avoid them you actually get them so you just have to remain empty to them place 512 00:58:40,400 --> 00:58:48,100 no importance on it so going to school is going to be a good practice for me to stay 513 00:58:48,100 --> 00:59:03,280 empty to it and don't place any importance on it 514 00:59:03,280 --> 00:59:09,780 and if what I said earlier struck the board with you about no one wants to actually work 515 00:59:09,780 --> 00:59:16,480 a nine-to-five for the rest of their life trust me no one actually wants to no one's 516 00:59:16,480 --> 00:59:22,320 choosing well actually everyone's choosing to do it because everyone has choice but they 517 00:59:22,320 --> 00:59:32,260 think it's it's not actually there it's not actually what they want it's they think they 518 00:59:32,260 --> 00:59:42,600 want it but it's just the pendulum like molding their minds to what it wants so they're basically 519 00:59:42,600 --> 00:59:48,160 just serving the pendulum and I will not be joining that that's why I'm studying Transurfing 520 00:59:48,160 --> 00:59:55,600 so much because there are still things right now that I am an inherent to and really everyone's 521 00:59:55,600 --> 01:00:00,840 an inherent in some way or another it's just how much you want to let it's how much you 522 01:00:00,840 --> 01:00:07,360 want to allow its claws into you so how deep do you want its claws to be into you so if 523 01:00:07,360 --> 01:00:15,120 it's your pendulum so let's say it's your business and that is directly related to the 524 01:00:15,120 --> 01:00:23,000 achievement of your goal well then you would allow it to be a little deeper into you because 525 01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:33,740 it's closer and twine to your goals but if it's school or some or alcohol drugs anything 526 01:00:33,740 --> 01:00:40,440 like that you're you want it as far away as possible because that none of that stuff is 527 01:00:40,440 --> 01:00:50,900 linked to your goals to wrap things up don't forget to download your favorite episodes 528 01:00:50,900 -->
