1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:05,840 The big question is this, how do young men like us who didn't listen to society, who 2 00:00:05,840 --> 00:00:12,000 are on our own, how do we grow and improve ourselves so that we can live a better tomorrow? 3 00:00:12,000 --> 00:00:16,520 That is the question, and this show will give you the answers. 4 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:26,840 My name is Jan Treadzinski, and this is the Ascend Momentum Show. 5 00:00:26,840 --> 00:00:31,080 Welcome back everybody. 6 00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,000 Today was a very good day. 7 00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:47,520 So what I did today was I ordered notebooks yesterday, more notebooks, and they came today 8 00:00:47,520 --> 00:00:49,880 and I labeled them. 9 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:58,760 I bought four because they are in packs of two and I wanted three, so I bought four. 10 00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:06,400 I labeled, I only used three so far, I labeled one of them expert secrets, the other one, 11 00:01:06,400 --> 00:01:12,400 dot com secrets, and then the third one, Braille de Transurfine. 12 00:01:12,400 --> 00:01:20,480 I am doing this because now when I am doing my daily studies for my books, like expert 13 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:25,880 secrets in the morning and then Braille de Transurfine at night, I am writing down notes 14 00:01:25,880 --> 00:01:35,000 as I am reading, but also every time I see a concept that I know I should remember, I 15 00:01:35,000 --> 00:01:40,600 am writing it down and rewording it and explaining it. 16 00:01:40,600 --> 00:01:48,040 Also that will help me a lot with, keep like memorizing the stuff and also with actually 17 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,840 understanding it and retaining it a lot more. 18 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:53,760 And that is the goal. 19 00:01:53,760 --> 00:02:00,600 I am trying to become an expert at marketing, so that is why I am reading expert secrets 20 00:02:00,600 --> 00:02:09,280 and I am trying to become extremely knowledgeable in that and then also at night time when I 21 00:02:09,280 --> 00:02:15,960 read reality transfer, that is just like worldview and that is like life, reality transfer is 22 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:16,960 everything. 23 00:02:16,960 --> 00:02:22,920 So I am trying to become extremely knowledgeable in that as well and not just knowledgeable 24 00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:29,600 in that, not just knowledgeable in either, but I am trying to actually be able to apply 25 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:34,200 all of the stuff, but the first step is to actually know it, so that is why I am doing 26 00:02:34,200 --> 00:02:35,200 that. 27 00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:41,600 And I am actually, this is the second time I am reading each of them, so I am taking 28 00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:46,880 a lot of notes and I have only done it once today and I already know that it is really 29 00:02:46,880 --> 00:02:51,680 helping me. 30 00:02:51,680 --> 00:03:03,120 So let me tell you today my critical task was to cold call people until I got five responses 31 00:03:03,120 --> 00:03:05,360 and let me give you some context. 32 00:03:05,360 --> 00:03:15,600 Yesterday I emailed probably like 30 people from my dream 100 list, all the people that 33 00:03:15,600 --> 00:03:23,640 I had their emails for and now today I am going through and calling them and following 34 00:03:23,640 --> 00:03:24,640 up. 35 00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:34,800 And I actually got all five and one of them was super close, almost interested, I just 36 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:42,120 did not do a good enough job at convincing and destroying his false beliefs. 37 00:03:42,120 --> 00:03:50,920 I should have told him a story or something, but hopefully tomorrow I will do better because 38 00:03:50,920 --> 00:03:59,600 I learned and also I wrote out a cold call script that I am actually using now because 39 00:03:59,600 --> 00:04:09,040 my first call I went in absolutely cold and I threw the bag, I fumbled, I did really bad, 40 00:04:09,040 --> 00:04:14,680 so I wrote down a script and then I actually called that same person back and I could tell 41 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:21,560 that she knew that I was calling again but now I have a script so she was actually interested 42 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:34,800 but she was not the person in charge so she just gave me an email to send to and yeah. 43 00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:40,880 But doing this stuff is expanding my comfort zone a lot for sure and getting better at 44 00:04:40,880 --> 00:04:50,440 talking to people because oh that reminds me, here let me tell you one thing, I realize 45 00:04:50,440 --> 00:05:01,000 that I am not, when I am speaking with people I do not make eye contact and I do make eye 46 00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:08,440 contact but I am not good at holding eye contact so I actually did this one thing, I looked 47 00:05:08,440 --> 00:05:16,640 up a picture of just some random picture of a man who is not smiling, who is just staring 48 00:05:16,640 --> 00:05:25,720 at the camera and so now I am just, while I am doing the podcast I am going to be looking 49 00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:34,720 at the man's eyes so I am naming him Frank so I am looking at Frank's eyes and that will 50 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:43,880 help me grow even more by making eye contact with someone and actually being able to speak 51 00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:49,360 while I am looking at someone's eyes and it is actually pretty difficult, I am doing it 52 00:05:49,360 --> 00:06:03,360 right now and I am not able to speak as fluently as I would be otherwise. 53 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:09,600 So that is one thing that I would recommend you guys do if or when you start your podcast, 54 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:16,360 even if you do not record, even if you do not publish it is still extremely beneficial 55 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:22,400 to just record on the voice memos app and just record yourself speaking and practice 56 00:06:22,400 --> 00:06:28,240 speaking, just do it every day and then add it to your routine and over time you will get 57 00:06:28,240 --> 00:06:35,600 better and better and I would recommend downloading a picture of a person and just making eye 58 00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:50,640 contact because that will help with just holding eye contact in real life. 59 00:06:50,640 --> 00:06:59,200 So let me tell you guys one thing, over this past summer I had been going outside every 60 00:06:59,200 --> 00:07:06,520 single day with my friend and going to the park barefoot and shirtless doing sprints 61 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:17,280 and also just chilling there and I would recommend daily sun exposure and grounding because I 62 00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:26,200 will tell you first of all I feel so much better when I go and also he left for a week 63 00:07:26,200 --> 00:07:35,120 and I did not go like outside to the park at all for a whole week and I could definitely 64 00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:45,240 tell that my health was worse and that is because I did not ground and I did not touch 65 00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:51,360 the grass with my feet and I did not get that much sun so I would recommend you guys go 66 00:07:51,360 --> 00:08:01,480 to the park shirtless and barefoot because one it will expand your comfort zone because 67 00:08:01,480 --> 00:08:09,320 you will get more comfortable being in public without your shirt on because that has helped 68 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:16,160 me a lot just growing as a person because now I am more comfortable without a shirt and 69 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:24,480 I am more comfortable standing out and two it will just help your health a lot and also 70 00:08:24,480 --> 00:08:36,920 one thing I noticed is that my feet, my toes were like compact before because of shoes 71 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:45,120 and then once I started being barefoot and walking around barefoot a lot then my toes 72 00:08:45,120 --> 00:08:50,800 actually started to spread out to how they are supposed to be so that is cool too and 73 00:08:50,800 --> 00:08:59,080 I am working on my toe like dexterity being able to move my toes like freely just like 74 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:20,600 my hands and it is pretty tough I will say and today I am sorry guys I cannot really 75 00:09:20,600 --> 00:09:45,840 think of anything I say I am just going to open my notebook and see if something sparks 76 00:09:45,840 --> 00:10:03,520 my imagination okay oh this is one thing so when I am working out with people especially 77 00:10:03,520 --> 00:10:09,840 and someone suggests us do something I am always just like alright let's do it and then I just 78 00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:20,320 like without any emotion attached to it we just do it and I say that let's do it but 79 00:10:20,320 --> 00:10:28,800 I am not like that when it comes to entrepreneurship and I predict that I developed my alright let's 80 00:10:28,800 --> 00:10:37,040 do it attitude on when I am exercising by doing hard things and going to the gym a lot 81 00:10:37,040 --> 00:10:43,360 and doing a lot of training sessions and over time my discipline has built on that avenue 82 00:10:43,360 --> 00:10:51,120 of my life but I found that it does not really transfer that much to my entrepreneurship so 83 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:58,800 I have to grind it out now do all of this like cold calling and stuff so then eventually 84 00:10:58,800 --> 00:11:04,040 I can actually develop a alright let's do it mindset to where it is actually easy and 85 00:11:04,040 --> 00:11:09,760 that is fun to do it and I know I am in the beginning stages of that in entrepreneurship 86 00:11:09,760 --> 00:11:16,000 and it is tough I will be honest and maybe you are too maybe you are in the beginning 87 00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:21,960 stages of entrepreneurship or maybe you are in the beginning stages of working out and 88 00:11:21,960 --> 00:11:29,520 I will say you just got to keep going at it with the goal of you developing the alright 89 00:11:29,520 --> 00:11:46,880 let's do a mindset and then eventually you will so one thing that I realized in just 90 00:11:46,880 --> 00:11:59,920 life but I realized this once I started to an entrepreneurship and the actual important 91 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:07,400 part of starting something new or building a new avenue of your life for example building 92 00:12:07,400 --> 00:12:16,760 your fitness your strength building your wealth all of this stuff the things that you should 93 00:12:16,760 --> 00:12:22,560 be focusing on are not the tactics but they are the strategy and let me explain what that 94 00:12:22,560 --> 00:12:32,960 means so the strategy would be to for going to the gym let's say strategy would be to 95 00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:44,080 lift just lift weights but the tactics would be push pull legs but or something like that 96 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:51,600 and more specific stuff or strategies like the overarching plan but tactics are like the 97 00:12:51,600 --> 00:13:05,600 more individual the more precise like plan of attack like actual plan so the reason why 98 00:13:05,600 --> 00:13:11,560 I am saying this is because or well let me just say this the thing that you should be 99 00:13:11,560 --> 00:13:18,360 focusing on most is not tactics but mindset and you just learn the strategy and then focus 100 00:13:18,360 --> 00:13:24,920 on mindset and the tactics will just be a breeze to go through so what I mean by that 101 00:13:24,920 --> 00:13:30,560 is when I first got into entrepreneurship if someone told me step by step exactly what 102 00:13:30,560 --> 00:13:38,120 to do that would be all the tactics I probably would fail but if someone taught me all of 103 00:13:38,120 --> 00:14:02,440 the mindset components like believe in yourself knowing the path being confident and just 104 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:10,360 I can't think of anything right now but just all that stuff all the mindset stuff then 105 00:14:10,360 --> 00:14:15,880 if someone taught me the mindset stuff and then gave me the strategy then I would succeed 106 00:14:15,880 --> 00:14:22,880 because the strategy would be first of all the fast lane which is building a business 107 00:14:22,880 --> 00:14:32,720 and then a business that can be separate from your time and there's a whole like the sense 108 00:14:32,720 --> 00:14:40,920 strategy the sense formula is written in MJ DeMarco's the millionaire fast lane and unscripted 109 00:14:40,920 --> 00:14:52,720 and it's basically the sense is control entry need time scale and if your business can if 110 00:14:52,720 --> 00:15:07,640 your business what's the word if your business and today's not the day why am I blanking 111 00:15:07,640 --> 00:15:17,280 so bad I don't know but if your business can like if your business has all of that stuff 112 00:15:17,280 --> 00:15:24,880 sent all the control entry need time scale then it will it will be a fast line business 113 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:31,880 and then from there you just have to focus on the mindset and then tactics will come 114 00:15:31,880 --> 00:15:46,520 along along the way and what I did notice is that even the 115 00:15:46,520 --> 00:15:56,680 the extremely successful people like what's that guy's name? 116 00:15:56,680 --> 00:16:10,960 Carbone I think his last name Carbone I don't even know but there's a billionaire who there's 117 00:16:10,960 --> 00:16:16,480 a billionaire who doesn't even know like all the tactics like most billionaires don't even 118 00:16:16,480 --> 00:16:21,080 know what's going on in their business on the tactics viewpoint but they focus on the 119 00:16:21,080 --> 00:16:29,880 strategy and that's what is makes them successful so they probably know enough to where they 120 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:37,280 know how to hire like people but they don't know like specific things that their business 121 00:16:37,280 --> 00:16:42,400 does they don't know every single thing they just know exactly how to make the business 122 00:16:42,400 --> 00:16:51,480 work and then push it forward and make it continue to grow so just focus on the mindset 123 00:16:51,480 --> 00:17:01,680 and that's why I'm really only focusing on learning I'm focusing on my mental stuff so 124 00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:10,000 if you read Transurfing I didn't actually understand all this stuff until I still don't understand 125 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:17,280 this stuff yet but I'm starting to actually understand it and I've this my second time 126 00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:24,240 reading it and I'm probably 80 pages in right now so I'm not really that far in because 127 00:17:24,240 --> 00:17:39,080 it's a 700 page book and I just know that if you're going to be successful then you have 128 00:17:39,080 --> 00:17:45,440 to focus on your mindset because anything that first of all even if you don't believe 129 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:55,560 that your thoughts can affect your reality then even if you don't believe that your thoughts 130 00:17:55,560 --> 00:18:03,080 still affect your actions because let's say you don't you're like most people and don't 131 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:07,040 believe that you can be a millionaire then your thoughts are going to prevent you from 132 00:18:07,040 --> 00:18:12,280 taking action because what's the point of taking action if you don't believe you're 133 00:18:12,280 --> 00:18:19,200 a millionaire but if you believe that you're a millionaire and your thoughts are aligned 134 00:18:19,200 --> 00:18:28,200 with that statement then you will take action on becoming a millionaire and me personally 135 00:18:28,200 --> 00:18:35,160 I believe that our thoughts definitely affect our environment so that plus the fact that 136 00:18:35,160 --> 00:18:42,360 our thoughts affect our environment that's like an extra force pushing us propelling 137 00:18:42,360 --> 00:18:49,240 us forward to achieve our goals. 138 00:18:49,240 --> 00:18:55,920 So all of this stuff if I were to be sitting in your position right now and just listening 139 00:18:55,920 --> 00:19:01,480 to a podcast and hearing someone say this and I have been in that position and I have 140 00:19:01,480 --> 00:19:09,080 heard someone say this stuff I would not believe it and I did not believe it until I read a 141 00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:19,120 book about it so if you have the slightest feeling that there is something here something 142 00:19:19,120 --> 00:19:29,960 some potential thing here go on Amazon right now and order the book Reality Transurfing 143 00:19:29,960 --> 00:19:39,480 by Vatom Zellin get the steps one through five and that's like the whole book and then 144 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:44,800 just read that and then your life will change I guarantee it. 145 00:19:44,800 --> 00:19:52,240 Mind it and I just read it once and then mine is changing even more propelling it even forward 146 00:19:52,240 --> 00:20:02,520 more forward now that I am reading it a second time and I will say me I didn't actually have 147 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:09,280 these daily study sessions of my study in my books I would just read my books casually 148 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:14,440 trying to learn as much information but now that I am being active with it and I am only 149 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:21,000 on the first day I know that I am going to grow at an unheard of rate and I am going 150 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:30,080 to grow so much so far so fast that I will blow past my competitors and be a millionaire 151 00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:33,320 before you know it. 152 00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:41,880 So let me tell you one thing if we don't control our thoughts negative thoughts are bound to 153 00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:46,960 creep in so one thing that I am working on is every time first of all I am trying to 154 00:20:46,960 --> 00:20:55,000 stay present as possible always present so I am always focusing on my breath but if I 155 00:20:55,000 --> 00:21:00,200 am at down time like when I am riding my bike to the gym or if I am just going on a walk 156 00:21:00,200 --> 00:21:06,400 or something like that if I have down time and my mind is free I think about my goals 157 00:21:06,400 --> 00:21:16,280 and I think about I can't visualize but most people can visualize so I think I just try 158 00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:21,520 my best to feel the energy of this specific goal and I didn't have this goal until the 159 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:25,840 other day when my friend brought it to my attention and it's to become a surfer. 160 00:21:25,840 --> 00:21:32,920 I have never surfed in my life but I will be a surfer and I will move I am going to 161 00:21:32,920 --> 00:21:41,040 go to once I make a lot of money I am going to like which is going to be soon I am going 162 00:21:41,040 --> 00:21:49,720 to go to Hawaii or something and learn to surf and surf a lot so that's one of my goals 163 00:21:49,720 --> 00:21:57,440 that I am thinking about during my down time and I just try and imagine me standing under 164 00:21:57,440 --> 00:22:07,680 the like that classic image of a surfer me standing inside of a wave curling over me 165 00:22:07,680 --> 00:22:12,440 and I just feel like that would be an awesome experience and I have never had it but I have 166 00:22:12,440 --> 00:22:20,080 seen it in videos and it seems awesome and I want it and I will have it so that's one 167 00:22:20,080 --> 00:22:21,840 thing that I am focusing on. 168 00:22:21,840 --> 00:22:28,560 Another thing I am focusing on is once I get this consulting business going I will be consulting 169 00:22:28,560 --> 00:22:36,400 for other businesses and building funnels for them and helping out their business and 170 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:42,240 I am going to do it for free until I have some success and once I have some success then 171 00:22:42,240 --> 00:22:48,680 I will be charging a lot of money and then with that money I will have to see what my 172 00:22:48,680 --> 00:22:58,000 heart says but my plan is to either focus on my self improvement business or purchase 173 00:22:58,000 --> 00:23:07,120 this one restaurant in my local area and scale it and franchise it and pretty much do what 174 00:23:07,120 --> 00:23:13,920 Ray Kroc of McDonald's did with McDonald's so I will have to see what my heart says 175 00:23:13,920 --> 00:23:23,640 but so far I am leaning towards the franchising thing but I haven't really given it some serious 176 00:23:23,640 --> 00:23:31,680 thought I have just been thinking about it casually a lot and I did order Ray Kroc's 177 00:23:31,680 --> 00:23:49,880 book and I ordered his biography so I am going to read those two books. 178 00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:55,560 So there is one thing that I have been doing lately every day with my friend at the park 179 00:23:55,560 --> 00:23:57,160 when we are shortlisting barefoot. 180 00:23:57,160 --> 00:24:03,120 I don't even bring my shirt or my shoes to the park. 181 00:24:03,120 --> 00:24:07,320 I bring my sides because I bike there but then I leave my sides under a tree and then 182 00:24:07,320 --> 00:24:15,800 we just walk around and do sprints, do push ups, frog jumps, just like a bunch of random 183 00:24:15,800 --> 00:24:24,080 exercises and bear crawls and all that stuff but one thing that we have been doing lately 184 00:24:24,080 --> 00:24:31,600 is climbing a tree and we are planning on climbing one new tree every single day for 185 00:24:31,600 --> 00:24:40,240 like the rest of summer however long every single day we go to the park and we have been 186 00:24:40,240 --> 00:24:44,640 climbing like five trees every day and just sitting up there and enjoying it and then 187 00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:51,920 just talking and hanging out up there and I will recommend it 100% it is a very fun 188 00:24:51,920 --> 00:24:54,120 thing to do. 189 00:24:54,120 --> 00:24:59,560 It makes me feel good and then since I am barefoot and shortlist it scratches up my 190 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:08,360 skin so that is cool which I actually like because it makes me feel like I achieved something. 191 00:25:08,360 --> 00:25:17,280 It is kind of like a trophy scar, not a dozen scar it is just like scratches and cuts but 192 00:25:17,280 --> 00:25:28,800 it is kind of like a trophy cut but also it makes my hands super grippy and it adds to 193 00:25:28,800 --> 00:25:35,640 my calluses on my feet and my hands so that is good and it increases, it just toughens 194 00:25:35,640 --> 00:25:43,640 my feet and hands in general also and I just feel like it is one of the best things ever 195 00:25:43,640 --> 00:25:46,400 climbing a tree. 196 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:52,800 You get one in nature, one with nature and also you climb a tree that is awesome. 197 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:57,120 You are like using your muscles and it is also like a sense of accomplishment because 198 00:25:57,120 --> 00:26:06,120 today we climbed like two very difficult trees, trees that I never would have tried on my 199 00:26:06,120 --> 00:26:15,880 own and trees that while I was climbing up them I was tempted to give up because they 200 00:26:15,880 --> 00:26:23,440 were so hard but then I pushed through and I asked Franklin about it and he was the person 201 00:26:23,440 --> 00:26:30,960 that I am hanging out with at the park and I asked him about it and he said that he had 202 00:26:30,960 --> 00:26:38,920 the same thoughts too but we both pushed through so that is good and that just shows me that 203 00:26:38,920 --> 00:26:43,360 it is normal to have thoughts of doubt and the difference between everyone has thoughts 204 00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:49,520 of doubts but the difference between a successful person and someone who is unsuccessful or the 205 00:26:49,520 --> 00:26:54,960 rest of the world pretty much is they ignore the thoughts of doubts and push through and 206 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:58,640 they don't even let the thoughts, a lot of the times they don't even let the thoughts 207 00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:06,640 of doubts like stay in their mind, they just think about something else like they focus 208 00:27:06,640 --> 00:27:09,640 up and think about their breath and stuff. 209 00:27:09,640 --> 00:27:30,560 Let me get a drink of water. 210 00:27:30,560 --> 00:27:36,760 So if you guys have not climbed a tree yet this summer, I don't know when you are listening 211 00:27:36,760 --> 00:27:49,440 to this but I am recording this during the summertime, 100% climatry, I recommend it. 212 00:27:49,440 --> 00:27:55,240 So let me tell you guys one thing that I learned in a Hamza video and then I found out that 213 00:27:55,240 --> 00:28:02,200 it was in a book so I read the book called the 4 hour work week and let me tell you one 214 00:28:02,200 --> 00:28:07,920 thing that helped me move forward in entrepreneurship and I think will help you move forward in whatever 215 00:28:07,920 --> 00:28:17,160 you are afraid of at the moment and it was this exercise called define, prevent and repair 216 00:28:17,160 --> 00:28:28,680 and it is pretty much where you define what you are afraid of and you just write down 217 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:38,480 like what exactly is it that you are afraid of, what will happen if it does happen, what 218 00:28:38,480 --> 00:28:43,680 is the worst case scenario, what is the best case scenario, just a bunch of different questions 219 00:28:43,680 --> 00:28:52,720 and then the prevent part is how could I reduce the likelihood of it happening and how could 220 00:28:52,720 --> 00:29:01,840 I prevent it pretty much and then the repair part is if it does happen, what would I do 221 00:29:01,840 --> 00:29:16,080 to fix things and pretty much I realized that my fear of beginning a business was not justifiable, 222 00:29:16,080 --> 00:29:26,320 it was just me being human and me preventing myself from moving forward and that was a 223 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:39,280 huge fear I had to begin my business in the first place and it was holding me back 100% 224 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:50,640 and then I wrote out all the answers to the questions and I realized how stupid it was 225 00:29:50,640 --> 00:29:57,160 for me to not begin because it was like a very low percentage of the fear that I was 226 00:29:57,160 --> 00:30:04,640 having of happening, I was just afraid of the unknown pretty much, I just didn't know 227 00:30:04,640 --> 00:30:08,560 what was going to happen so I was afraid to move forward and I feel like that is holding 228 00:30:08,560 --> 00:30:15,920 a lot of people back their fears and we had to be more aware and conscious of our fears 229 00:30:15,920 --> 00:30:21,240 because once you are conscious of your fears then you can address them and then you can 230 00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:27,400 start to move forward and I will be honest it was a couple days until I actually built 231 00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:35,880 up the balls even after I wrote out the answers to the, I wrote out like my entire fear, it 232 00:30:35,880 --> 00:30:44,480 was a couple days until after that I actually took action so the first step is to be aware 233 00:30:44,480 --> 00:30:52,360 of it and from there then you can move forward and you really can't move forward to fix up 234 00:30:52,360 --> 00:31:07,360 the problem until you are aware of it. 235 00:31:07,360 --> 00:31:12,400 So let me tell you one thing that has helped me a lot and that is to surround yourself 236 00:31:12,400 --> 00:31:22,520 with high quality people that are just like you, just in a similar if not better position 237 00:31:22,520 --> 00:31:30,280 because I didn't do that until this summer and before I was still improving but once 238 00:31:30,280 --> 00:31:38,280 I actually only hung out with this one person and this one person is in a very similar position 239 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:46,000 that I am and similar mindset, similar everything to me then I actually started to improve and 240 00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:53,760 like grow so fast next to me because we were able to like discuss with each other like 241 00:31:53,760 --> 00:32:00,080 where we are at and keep each other accountable pretty much and it was just like that competition 242 00:32:00,080 --> 00:32:09,080 piece too, like we both wanted to, we both wanted to do better than the other and that 243 00:32:09,080 --> 00:32:16,240 just keeps pushing us forward and forward so and we are also able to tell each other 244 00:32:16,240 --> 00:32:20,560 things that we learned so we can learn from each other and then we can also tell each 245 00:32:20,560 --> 00:32:28,120 other what they should do so for example my friend was not meditating consistently and 246 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:33,800 that was because he didn't have meditation in his daily routine and then I like told 247 00:32:33,800 --> 00:32:42,400 him over many days I told him that he needs to be doing this and so now he is doing it 248 00:32:42,400 --> 00:32:48,240 and now it is good so if you guys aren't meditating everyday you have to be meditating 249 00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:55,280 everyday and the only way to be able to do that is to put it in your morning routine 250 00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:59,400 and I actually put it in my morning routine and night time routine so I am meditating 251 00:32:59,400 --> 00:33:13,360 for over an hour everyday total so all the times that I stop speaking I want you guys 252 00:33:13,360 --> 00:33:21,920 to be aware is because I am focusing on my breath and I am like calming myself and breathing 253 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:37,200 I am just breathing I just take one deep breath in and one and then let it out so one thing 254 00:33:37,200 --> 00:33:45,640 that I want you guys to do is to never let in negative energy into your mind and also 255 00:33:45,640 --> 00:33:56,160 never let it out of your person so what I mean by that is never if someone is let's 256 00:33:56,160 --> 00:34:02,840 say someone is getting mad don't let them make you mad just stay indifferent except 257 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:13,800 the fact that they have their right to be mad but just move on with indifference so 258 00:34:13,800 --> 00:34:22,160 just move on with emptiness and that will prevent you from thinking negatively and 259 00:34:22,160 --> 00:34:35,880 therefore keep your world like keep your world in good I can't I am not doing a very good 260 00:34:35,880 --> 00:34:41,960 job explaining this but pretty much don't think bad thoughts because thoughts directly 261 00:34:41,960 --> 00:34:47,960 or indirectly affect your environment keeps your environment clean from negatives and 262 00:34:47,960 --> 00:34:58,600 then what I mean by don't let negative energy out is to don't like get mad at other people 263 00:34:58,600 --> 00:35:06,520 or I mean don't yell at other people or say bad things out loud and just all that stuff 264 00:35:06,520 --> 00:35:18,000 don't express negative things so just pretty much don't be negative and if you stay positive 265 00:35:18,000 --> 00:35:25,400 and you make it a habit and be conscious and like focus 100% on staying positive then you 266 00:35:25,400 --> 00:35:34,160 will be successful as well and that's what I am focusing on right now staying positive 267 00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:41,800 and focusing on actually keeping my mind clean so everyone has dirty minds like most people 268 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:47,320 in this society have dirty minds is what I like to think of it as and I actually have 269 00:35:47,320 --> 00:35:53,200 a dirty mind as well but I am trying to clean it up and what I mean by dirty mind is that 270 00:35:53,200 --> 00:36:01,560 it's molded in a way to where we are negative and we feel a lot of negative emotions and 271 00:36:01,560 --> 00:36:10,000 we think badly we don't have very good thinking habits or thinking patterns and so once we 272 00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:18,640 clean up our minds and take out the trash from our minds then we become clear and we 273 00:36:18,640 --> 00:36:28,920 become successful because think about it you don't act in real life you don't like take 274 00:36:28,920 --> 00:36:37,880 action unless you think to take action so even if it's subconscious you are not clicking 275 00:36:37,880 --> 00:36:45,280 on my podcast with emptiness you are actually thinking your mind is like oh click on this 276 00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:57,400 podcast and let's listen to this do you know what I mean does that make sense so what I 277 00:36:57,400 --> 00:37:10,160 mean by that is you you're not like brain dead your brain is functioning right so your 278 00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:17,560 brain is working so whether it's your subconscious or your conscious you are making decisions 279 00:37:17,560 --> 00:37:31,600 based on your brain and it's usually based off past experiences and stuff like that and 280 00:37:31,600 --> 00:37:44,040 so the first piece the first step to taking action is to think to take action so if you 281 00:37:44,040 --> 00:37:50,040 are holding yourself back by thinking that you are not going to be successful well then 282 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:54,920 you are not going to be successful because the first step is already failed you already 283 00:37:54,920 --> 00:37:59,600 failed at the first step if you want to succeed at the first step then think that you are going 284 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:03,480 to be successful or at least tell yourself that you are going to be successful until 285 00:38:03,480 --> 00:38:12,360 you actually believe it that's what I am doing and right now I am like I mostly believe it 286 00:38:12,360 --> 00:38:20,440 is obviously there is still the unknown of the future but I have a very good I am very 287 00:38:20,440 --> 00:38:26,360 confident that I will be successful and now every once in a while a thought pops up like 288 00:38:26,360 --> 00:38:34,640 what if I fail or what will happen now that's I am usually conscious I am working on becoming 289 00:38:34,640 --> 00:38:40,960 conscious of that those kinds of thoughts and eliminating them as soon as possible because 290 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:48,160 they are not constructive at all and they don't help anybody the only reason why we have them 291 00:38:48,160 --> 00:38:55,840 is because fear helps us survive but we don't need that type of survival mechanism anymore 292 00:38:55,840 --> 00:39:01,560 because we are not living in the jungle or we are not living we are living in a society 293 00:39:01,560 --> 00:39:11,600 that develops a society now so we are able to not feel fear of getting eaten by a tiger 294 00:39:11,600 --> 00:39:20,440 right now and examples like that are why we have fear but those just don't happen anymore 295 00:39:20,440 --> 00:39:28,800 so we don't have to feel fear anymore I actually don't know why we so I can't think of a single 296 00:39:28,800 --> 00:39:37,160 reason why we have fear I mean I guess like well actually I can't think of things because 297 00:39:37,160 --> 00:39:49,600 you don't want to like jump off of a cliff you want to be afraid of that you know and 298 00:39:49,600 --> 00:39:56,840 I feel like fear is just trying to protect you and if you are conscious of the fact that 299 00:39:56,840 --> 00:40:04,120 it's trying it sometimes most of the time it's just holding you back then you can have 300 00:40:04,120 --> 00:40:13,840 some success and prevent or not prevent but stop yourself from acting on that fear because 301 00:40:13,840 --> 00:40:19,400 if you act on fear then you won't do anything but if you take action against fear then you 302 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:29,800 will achieve stuff so I'm sorry guys if this episode was not of the quality of my other 303 00:40:29,800 --> 00:40:37,600 episodes I think it's because I'm looking at I'm making eye contact with a man this 304 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:46,000 whole time and if you guys try try to hold eye contact with someone for an entire conversation 305 00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:54,120 it's hard you are not you don't think as well and so I believe that if I continue this practice 306 00:40:54,120 --> 00:40:58,800 then I will be able to think properly when I'm holding eye contact with people in real 307 00:40:58,800 --> 00:41:08,440 life and then I'll just be able to speak fluently and very well while I'm in conversation because 308 00:41:08,440 --> 00:41:15,320 that's one thing I'm good at I'm now I'm getting a lot better at speaking but I'm not very 309 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:22,600 good at speaking in conversation with others because I haven't practiced it that much so 310 00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:30,560 I'm good at speaking to you guys but to other people is a different story just because I 311 00:41:30,560 --> 00:41:49,640 haven't practiced guys make sure to stay awake okay focus on your breath stay conscious throughout 312 00:41:49,640 --> 00:41:57,080 the day so to wrap things up don't forget to download your favorite episodes and subscribe 313 00:41:57,080 --> 00:42:05,920 to the Ascend Momentum show but before you

has to be higher and higher so if you guys notice that I progressively progressively 316 00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:29,200 increase the length of every podcast and I'm gonna do that until I get to around one hour 317 00:42:29,200 --> 00:42:35,200 and then once I get to one hour I'm just gonna have all my podcasts at least one hour long 318 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:41,280 and then not have like a time limit or anything like that but I just realized that it was 319 00:42:41,280 --> 00:42:47,720 less at when I was about to end it it was like 10 seconds less than yesterday's episode 320 00:42:47,720
