00:00:07.219 --> 00:00:09.519
Welcome, my dear little pork heart. Every day

00:00:09.519 --> 00:00:13.000
is a continuous test with no subject. What's

00:00:13.000 --> 00:00:19.899
your answer? Was it meaningful? At a certain

00:00:19.899 --> 00:00:27.460
point, when you go through the obstacles, you

00:00:27.460 --> 00:00:33.640
feel all the thorns. You're caught in a trap

00:00:33.640 --> 00:00:38.179
and still make it through. It's like what they

00:00:38.179 --> 00:00:42.740
call, you get that runner's high. Where you get

00:00:42.740 --> 00:00:47.679
that second boost, second win, new kick from

00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:52.159
just sticking to it. That enchantment, that wonder.

00:00:54.840 --> 00:00:59.539
You know, one lesson that I learned, one adage

00:00:59.539 --> 00:01:02.299
I should say that I learned in school that kind

00:01:02.299 --> 00:01:05.879
of sticks to today is, Keeping your eyes on your

00:01:05.879 --> 00:01:11.980
own paper. But away from a plagiarism standpoint,

00:01:12.120 --> 00:01:17.560
but looking around and not being focused at the

00:01:17.560 --> 00:01:24.780
task at hand is detrimental. It throws you off.

00:01:26.299 --> 00:01:31.480
It yields less productive standards than being

00:01:31.480 --> 00:01:39.560
locked in on your paper. And I feel like I'm

00:01:39.560 --> 00:01:44.959
at a point where I've been through that. I've

00:01:44.959 --> 00:01:47.859
been through the traps. I've stepped through

00:01:47.859 --> 00:01:56.959
the minefield. I got my leg caught. And as I

00:01:56.959 --> 00:02:01.420
still stand, I'm here to tell you it gets better.

00:02:02.840 --> 00:02:06.400
Or maybe it doesn't get better and You're just

00:02:06.400 --> 00:02:14.659
able to wear with all. You've built up the strength

00:02:14.659 --> 00:02:17.360
necessary going through what you went through.

00:02:18.340 --> 00:02:20.699
That goes for anything, whatever your journey

00:02:20.699 --> 00:02:25.139
is in life, whatever your goal you have. It's

00:02:25.139 --> 00:02:28.580
going to take that built up stamina and endurance.

00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:33.110
It's not just going to happen right now. Unfortunate

00:02:33.110 --> 00:02:35.449
from this generation that we live in, we get

00:02:35.449 --> 00:02:39.150
everything right now. However, we have to use

00:02:39.150 --> 00:02:42.449
all of these tools in our favor to know that

00:02:42.449 --> 00:02:47.090
we still have to stay down. Enchantment. With

00:02:47.090 --> 00:02:54.009
that, let's start it! Song of the day on season

00:02:54.009 --> 00:03:03.189
62 is... Sucker proof. Nipsey Hussle. I've been

00:03:03.189 --> 00:03:05.949
really playing Get On My Hype by Messi Marv.

00:03:05.949 --> 00:03:12.530
We all have our certain chapters in life when

00:03:12.530 --> 00:03:20.289
everything was going right. And we were in that

00:03:20.289 --> 00:03:23.289
mode. And I feel like Get On My Hype was one

00:03:23.289 --> 00:03:25.169
of that chapters he was in. And we can always

00:03:25.169 --> 00:03:27.889
enter that back. And the good thing is about

00:03:27.889 --> 00:03:30.189
those chapters is we always have some sort of

00:03:30.189 --> 00:03:33.370
reminder collectible to remind us you're able

00:03:33.370 --> 00:03:40.250
to do that still. The carrot and the rabbit.

00:03:44.689 --> 00:03:47.550
What did I read today? Today I changed it up.

00:03:47.629 --> 00:03:50.710
I went back to, and I like doing this from time

00:03:50.710 --> 00:03:53.939
to time. just reopening a book that i've already

00:03:53.939 --> 00:03:58.840
read a number of times and this was uh 48 laws

00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:02.360
of power um law three concealing your intentions

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:08.520
not always leading with what exactly it is that

00:04:08.520 --> 00:04:11.039
you want but knowing that there's a system and

00:04:11.039 --> 00:04:15.699
a strategy i was watching uh in netflix train

00:04:15.699 --> 00:04:21.519
wreck uh the cult of american apparel where they

00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:28.560
were talking down and smearing this book for

00:04:28.560 --> 00:04:32.019
their laws of power and but the whole thing is

00:04:32.019 --> 00:04:35.300
the guy gave them the book and they never opened

00:04:35.300 --> 00:04:38.500
it they only used their iphone and whatever they

00:04:38.500 --> 00:04:41.259
threw the book out and they said this guy is

00:04:41.259 --> 00:04:44.319
manipulative he's terrible he did all these things

00:04:44.319 --> 00:04:48.480
but my thought is he gave you the tools why didn't

00:04:48.480 --> 00:04:51.379
you open the book or read it or by the audiobook.

00:04:52.519 --> 00:04:56.680
So busy on trying to point the finger away from

00:04:56.680 --> 00:05:02.620
ourselves that we miss a lot. Was I physically

00:05:02.620 --> 00:05:07.259
active today? These are the days where I feel

00:05:07.259 --> 00:05:13.600
that working out paid off for. I'm able to walk

00:05:13.600 --> 00:05:16.990
the hills with my children. go to the park after

00:05:16.990 --> 00:05:20.009
that and then still have fun in the day going

00:05:20.009 --> 00:05:23.629
to like an arcade or something that built up

00:05:23.629 --> 00:05:29.209
and also understanding and knowing that they

00:05:29.209 --> 00:05:34.490
weren't at work all day or doing whatever it

00:05:34.490 --> 00:05:37.949
is that adults need to do to get through however

00:05:37.949 --> 00:05:40.769
this child is right in front of me right here

00:05:40.769 --> 00:05:42.750
right now and i would be doing them a disservice

00:05:42.750 --> 00:05:44.790
if i just put a device in front of them and let

00:05:45.050 --> 00:05:48.430
that do the raising? No. It's going to be me.

00:05:49.649 --> 00:05:52.490
Nevertheless, it is going to be hard and strenuous

00:05:52.490 --> 00:05:56.930
and I'm going to sweat and I'm going to get tired

00:05:56.930 --> 00:06:01.110
and that's the part of raising up the next generation

00:06:01.110 --> 00:06:06.250
is pushing ourselves still. What did I get from

00:06:06.250 --> 00:06:09.550
my meditations? At a certain point when you're

00:06:09.550 --> 00:06:12.029
going for your goal, the outside noise will either

00:06:12.029 --> 00:06:23.180
drown you out or you'll see through it. Where

00:06:23.180 --> 00:06:28.420
did I succeed at? Looking ahead and not being

00:06:28.420 --> 00:06:34.000
satisfied with what's right here right now. Yeah,

00:06:34.019 --> 00:06:36.839
I could say that in this current moment right

00:06:36.839 --> 00:06:40.459
now, today, I owe no one. However, I still got

00:06:40.459 --> 00:06:44.279
to stack up. Yeah, in this moment right now,

00:06:44.360 --> 00:06:49.259
I could say that they do grocery shopping. That

00:06:49.259 --> 00:06:51.279
doesn't mean that it's still time to go back.

00:06:52.560 --> 00:06:56.560
Yeah, right now I know that I don't really have

00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:59.759
that much driving to do. Still doesn't mean that

00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:07.459
I shouldn't fill up. So success is really just

00:07:07.459 --> 00:07:13.500
looking forward and not being comfortable with

00:07:13.500 --> 00:07:17.759
just making the bar, but setting my own bar.

00:07:20.910 --> 00:07:28.290
What made me smile today? July 21st, 2025. Monday.

00:07:29.750 --> 00:07:34.949
Now it's 2 .12 p .m. Pacific Standard Time. After

00:07:34.949 --> 00:07:37.310
a boy's weekend, just seeing him off into the

00:07:37.310 --> 00:07:42.250
world. However, being right there with him and

00:07:42.250 --> 00:07:46.589
checking us out on Dennis POV, YouTube, and Instagram.

00:07:47.879 --> 00:07:49.639
being with them making sure that i'm brushing

00:07:49.639 --> 00:07:52.439
their teeth and just seeing that full journey

00:07:52.439 --> 00:07:55.259
of them as they go out into the world as they

00:07:55.259 --> 00:07:58.519
came into me and they got the haircuts and chase

00:07:58.519 --> 00:08:01.540
needs to go to the dentist and got some work

00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:05.079
done and then we all made sure our hygiene was

00:08:05.079 --> 00:08:10.620
on point and i always say that it's a vibe of

00:08:10.620 --> 00:08:13.959
being smooth so it's not they can't hit smooth

00:08:13.959 --> 00:08:16.040
when they first see me it has to be the next

00:08:16.040 --> 00:08:19.370
day because We've got to clip your nails. We've

00:08:19.370 --> 00:08:22.269
got to cut your hair. Then we've got to wash

00:08:22.269 --> 00:08:25.970
your hair. Then the next day when you wake up,

00:08:26.029 --> 00:08:27.829
we've got to make sure we lotion you up good

00:08:27.829 --> 00:08:30.209
and then style your hair and then still brush

00:08:30.209 --> 00:08:33.210
your teeth the night and the next morning and

00:08:33.210 --> 00:08:40.730
then you're smooth status. We've got to hold

00:08:40.730 --> 00:08:46.860
a standard. If we don't, who else will? What

00:08:46.860 --> 00:08:49.340
standard will the next generation have to build

00:08:49.340 --> 00:08:51.820
upon for their next generation going forward?

00:08:52.980 --> 00:08:57.220
We are the pillars. Even though we stand on the

00:08:57.220 --> 00:09:01.120
shoulders of giants. What do I think of my day

00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:06.320
overall? Enchanting. Not for a specific thing

00:09:06.320 --> 00:09:10.759
or object or person. However, just that grind

00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:19.830
and that grit and that want to... create my own

00:09:19.830 --> 00:09:23.330
be my own and live out the purpose that i was

00:09:23.330 --> 00:09:27.029
meant to be here not what somebody else thinks

00:09:27.029 --> 00:09:30.570
i should or what society says or what's most

00:09:30.570 --> 00:09:34.190
safe or what pays the bills but what fulfills

00:09:34.190 --> 00:09:37.289
me i hope you can feel the same way too and make

00:09:37.289 --> 00:09:43.769
money and what grade do i give myself i'm going

00:09:43.769 --> 00:09:47.899
with a b plus Why? Because I felt like I could

00:09:47.899 --> 00:09:50.139
have wrote down more meditations. I felt I could

00:09:50.139 --> 00:09:54.100
have still did more ab work. I felt I could have

00:09:54.100 --> 00:09:59.179
read to my sons more. Even though we covered

00:09:59.179 --> 00:10:02.259
a lot of ground and did a lot of things and there's

00:10:02.259 --> 00:10:08.899
still meat left on the bone. You know, you try

00:10:08.899 --> 00:10:13.019
so hard and you still miss 11%, 12%, whatever

00:10:13.019 --> 00:10:19.240
have you. Of the material. However we still keep

00:10:19.240 --> 00:10:22.740
going forward. And we still be easy on ourselves.

00:10:22.860 --> 00:10:26.679
And I'm trying to give my own. Take my own advice.

00:10:28.340 --> 00:10:31.019
I hope you are. You can be easy on yourself too.

00:10:32.639 --> 00:10:38.000
And still. Being your own biggest critic. Never

00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:42.259
being. Too comfortable. But yet still satisfied

00:10:42.259 --> 00:10:46.960
in the moment. Knowing that. The next is not

00:10:46.960 --> 00:10:48.919
promised. However you should be ready for it.

00:10:50.320 --> 00:10:52.240
And with that. Once again.
