Practice #44 - Alright Lets Do It

1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:14,040 Six months ago, I wrote down in my journal, it was a t-chart. 2 00:00:14,040 --> 00:00:20,080 It was basically, I had two rows and two columns. 3 00:00:20,080 --> 00:00:31,840 So essentially, I wrote down on the top two physical exercise and then on the other one 4 00:00:31,840 --> 00:00:34,640 was entrepreneurship. 5 00:00:34,640 --> 00:00:40,200 And at the time I was studying this guy named Russell Brunson because I was reading his books. 6 00:00:40,200 --> 00:00:49,280 And the two columns, or I don't know the difference between a column and a row, I think a column 7 00:00:49,280 --> 00:00:53,400 is the one that goes vertical, up and down. 8 00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,320 The ones that go up and down, I labeled physical activity and entrepreneurship. 9 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,320 And then the rows, or I think they're the rows, the ones that go sideways, I labeled 10 00:01:04,320 --> 00:01:11,920 me, like James Radzinski and Russell Brunson. 11 00:01:11,920 --> 00:01:21,440 And I checked off on my row, I checked off physical activity. 12 00:01:21,440 --> 00:01:25,960 And then on Russell Brunson's row, I checked off physical activity and entrepreneurship. 13 00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:28,000 And now let me explain. 14 00:01:28,000 --> 00:01:29,760 I had this mindset. 15 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:33,320 Well, actually, let's go back. 16 00:01:33,320 --> 00:01:38,200 On that graph, I labeled it, let's do it mindset. 17 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:40,240 Like the, all right, let's do it mindset. 18 00:01:40,240 --> 00:01:42,240 That's what I labeled it. 19 00:01:42,240 --> 00:01:48,960 And let me explain because I had developed this mindset of, all right, let's do it. 20 00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:56,120 In physical activity over the course of years, but it was especially potent at that time 21 00:01:56,120 --> 00:01:58,920 because it was during summer. 22 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:04,680 When I was going to the park, like the one that I remember the one moment that I actually 23 00:02:04,680 --> 00:02:12,120 became aware of how valuable my, all right, let's do it mindset is, is one day I was at 24 00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:16,880 the park with my friend and we were training and we were doing a very difficult workout. 25 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:23,920 We're doing like bear crawls, sideways bear crawls, backwards bear crawls, sprints, frog 26 00:02:23,920 --> 00:02:29,040 jumps, all kinds of things and many sets of each. 27 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:33,000 And so like all the way across the soccer field. 28 00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:38,680 And so we were doing this really difficult exercise and we were like basically pooped 29 00:02:38,680 --> 00:02:39,680 by the end. 30 00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,840 And then the guy that we were with, he's like 20 some years old and he was training us, 31 00:02:44,840 --> 00:02:50,400 not like officially, but we were all training together and he was like giving us instruction. 32 00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:55,600 Like he was basically leading the workout and he is our friend. 33 00:02:55,600 --> 00:03:04,240 So we were basically just working out and he, we were basically pooped. 34 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:06,760 So we were about to finish and we're like, Oh, good. 35 00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,000 We finished it. 36 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:13,240 And then he was like, now to conclude three sprints. 37 00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:17,280 And then I was just like, All right, let's do it. 38 00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:22,880 And like at that moment, I didn't really come aware of it. 39 00:03:22,880 --> 00:03:29,080 But then after we completed the three sprints, my friend, he like told me that I have like 40 00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:33,240 this crazy discipline or mindset with physical activity. 41 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:37,240 Like I have this just do it mindset. 42 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:39,680 And he brought it to my attention how valuable that is. 43 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:47,160 And so at that time, I was studying Russell Brunson, like I said, his book, his books, 44 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:50,280 expert secrets, dot com secrets and traffic secrets. 45 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:57,520 I was reading those and he was, I was basically learning all of his life stories that he shared. 46 00:03:57,520 --> 00:04:01,920 And I noticed that in his book, he shared a lot of stories about wrestling. 47 00:04:01,920 --> 00:04:10,120 Like he would just do wrestling, like physical activity, super hard activity while wrestling. 48 00:04:10,120 --> 00:04:12,260 And he had the, all right, let's do a mindset. 49 00:04:12,260 --> 00:04:17,560 So I connected the dots to Russell Brunson had that also, but then I also connected it 50 00:04:17,560 --> 00:04:21,960 to when he was working on entrepreneurship, he also has the all right, let's do it mindset 51 00:04:21,960 --> 00:04:23,440 for entrepreneurship. 52 00:04:23,440 --> 00:04:26,960 And I hadn't yet developed that mindset yet. 53 00:04:26,960 --> 00:04:35,920 And so in my journal, I wrote down, develop the all right, let's do it mindset in entrepreneurship. 54 00:04:35,920 --> 00:04:42,920 Like six months ago, I wrote down, develop the all right, let's do it mindset in entrepreneurship. 55 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:55,560 And today I had finished all my work and I was really relieved because I spent a long 56 00:04:55,560 --> 00:04:56,560 time editing. 57 00:04:56,560 --> 00:05:01,480 I spent many hours editing this upcoming video that I'm working on. 58 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:09,440 And he, or so I, I'm like relieved I'm about a shutdown. 59 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:14,840 Like I have a shutdown ritual after I'm done work working where I basically go onto my 60 00:05:14,840 --> 00:05:20,080 notebook and write down the task that I'm going to work on tomorrow. 61 00:05:20,080 --> 00:05:26,280 And so I grabbed my pen and started writing down on my notebook, but I saw that I actually 62 00:05:26,280 --> 00:05:28,960 didn't finish all of my work for today. 63 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:33,480 I still had one more thing and it was to record. 64 00:05:33,480 --> 00:05:38,240 And this story actually happened yesterday, but it also happened today too, because I 65 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:42,640 didn't even look at my journal or actually I did look at my journal, but I didn't write 66 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:44,160 down this next task. 67 00:05:44,160 --> 00:05:47,040 And my task was to record. 68 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:53,720 I was supposed to record a video because like my daily practice a couple of days ago, I 69 00:05:53,720 --> 00:06:02,280 started a new habit where I record a daily story every single day just to get better 70 00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:04,320 at storytelling. 71 00:06:04,320 --> 00:06:09,560 And so I was looking at my journal yesterday and I saw that I had to do this because I 72 00:06:09,560 --> 00:06:14,400 reminded myself and I was like, all right, let's do it. 73 00:06:14,400 --> 00:06:21,320 And I didn't think anything of it at the time, but then during my daily story, like my daily 74 00:06:21,320 --> 00:06:25,000 story work, which I talked about a couple of days ago, it's basically where at the end 75 00:06:25,000 --> 00:06:30,400 of the day I sit down with my journal and come up with a story that happened today. 76 00:06:30,400 --> 00:06:35,760 And I didn't really think anything of it, but then today or last night during my daily 77 00:06:35,760 --> 00:06:40,440 story work, I wrote down in my journal and I was like trying to think like what happened 78 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:41,440 to it? 79 00:06:41,440 --> 00:06:42,440 What's a good story? 80 00:06:42,440 --> 00:06:43,440 What's a good story? 81 00:06:43,440 --> 00:06:49,600 And then after like maybe 10 minutes of sitting there and nothing coming up, I remembered that 82 00:06:49,600 --> 00:06:55,680 I had finished all of my work and I was like relieved. 83 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:59,040 And then I realized that I had another thing to do and I had a choice to make. 84 00:06:59,040 --> 00:07:04,960 I could have either skipped it and just been like, whatever, no, or I could have actually 85 00:07:04,960 --> 00:07:09,640 done it, mustered up the discipline and actually done it. 86 00:07:09,640 --> 00:07:12,280 And I ended up doing it with little tension. 87 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:16,600 I kind of just like quieted my mind and then just did it. 88 00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:17,720 There was little tension. 89 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:22,240 And so I didn't think of anything of it at the moment, but then at nighttime I connected 90 00:07:22,240 --> 00:07:27,000 it to how I developed that, all right, let's do it mindset. 91 00:07:27,000 --> 00:07:33,520 I like I six months later developed the, all right, let's do it mindset. 92 00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:38,520 Six months ago I wrote down in my journal, developed all right, let's do it mindset. 93 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:46,040 And today or last night I wrote down in my journal, I developed the, all right, let's 94 00:07:46,040 --> 00:07:49,800 do a mindset in entrepreneurship. 95 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:57,280 So that is huge because it's a huge skill and a huge asset to have for entrepreneurship 96 00:07:57,280 --> 00:08:00,320 because you can't really get things done unless you actually do them. 97 00:08:00,320 --> 00:08:04,960 So that's something that I'm really glad that I've developed. 98 00:08:04,960 --> 00:08:09,480 But like I said, that story happened yesterday, but it also happened today because I didn't 99 00:08:09,480 --> 00:08:14,280 write down a reminder to record the daily practice. 100 00:08:14,280 --> 00:08:16,280 I completely forgot. 101 00:08:16,280 --> 00:08:20,680 And so I shut down all of my stuff. 102 00:08:20,680 --> 00:08:22,640 I completed my shutdown ritual. 103 00:08:22,640 --> 00:08:24,920 I was done with working for the day. 104 00:08:24,920 --> 00:08:31,400 And I actually went upstairs and started cooking lunch, which is like, I like that's what I 105 00:08:31,400 --> 00:08:32,560 do after I finish working. 106 00:08:32,560 --> 00:08:34,760 I cook and eat. 107 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:36,840 And so I cooked it and I started eating. 108 00:08:36,840 --> 00:08:39,040 I literally was in the middle of eating. 109 00:08:39,040 --> 00:08:40,400 And then the thought popped in my head. 110 00:08:40,400 --> 00:08:42,440 I didn't record today. 111 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:43,920 I forgot to record. 112 00:08:43,920 --> 00:08:46,080 And so I was like, all right, let's do it. 113 00:08:46,080 --> 00:08:51,360 And so I just put my food on the table. 114 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,720 It's still upstairs right now, half eaten. 115 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:55,920 And I'm going to go eat it once I'm done with this. 116 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:59,800 But I put my food up on the table and came down here and turned on my computer again 117 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,280 and started recording. 118 00:09:02,280 --> 00:09:17,080 And that is the story of how I developed the, all right, let's do a mindset.
