WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.580 Hey everybody, welcome to Vision Pros. I'm your 00:00:02.580 --> 00:00:05.860 host and coach, Fletcher Ellingson. And I am 00:00:05.860 --> 00:00:09.160 delighted to have on the show today, Mr. Cam 00:00:09.160 --> 00:00:12.460 Knight. And before I introduce Cam, I wanna ask 00:00:12.460 --> 00:00:15.539 you a question. Do you ever feel like you have 00:00:15.539 --> 00:00:18.600 challenges when it comes to remembering names 00:00:18.600 --> 00:00:22.899 or dates or certain facts? Do you feel like you're 00:00:22.899 --> 00:00:27.120 a slow reader? I'll tell you what, in my life, 00:00:27.500 --> 00:00:30.859 I check all those boxes. And it did for Cam as 00:00:30.859 --> 00:00:35.200 well. But Cam figured out one day or during a 00:00:35.200 --> 00:00:38.119 time in his life how to change all of that. And 00:00:38.119 --> 00:00:40.299 so we're going to talk today with Mr. Cam Knight 00:00:40.299 --> 00:00:46.100 about memory, about intelligence, and he might 00:00:46.100 --> 00:00:49.060 have some surprising messages for you. So let's 00:00:49.060 --> 00:00:51.500 get to it. Cam Knight, welcome to Vision Pros. 00:00:52.270 --> 00:00:54.670 Thank you very much, Fletcher. Really happy to 00:00:54.670 --> 00:00:56.969 be here and thanks for having me on. Really appreciate 00:00:56.969 --> 00:01:02.109 it. Absolutely. Hey, before we get started, we 00:01:02.109 --> 00:01:03.869 want to start off with a win. Something that 00:01:03.869 --> 00:01:07.450 feels good because there's a lot of things in 00:01:07.450 --> 00:01:09.430 life that don't feel good and we're practicing 00:01:09.430 --> 00:01:12.150 focusing on those. So let's bring a little positivity 00:01:12.150 --> 00:01:14.629 to the show. Give me a win. What's going well 00:01:14.629 --> 00:01:17.849 in your life? Honestly, Fletcher, there's a lot 00:01:17.849 --> 00:01:21.730 going well. I got a new house, got a new car 00:01:21.730 --> 00:01:25.890 I've been wanting to buy. I had wanting to start 00:01:25.890 --> 00:01:29.469 doing this technique that I've developed that 00:01:29.469 --> 00:01:32.450 helps people quickly overcome trauma, PTSD, bad 00:01:32.450 --> 00:01:35.969 breakup, codependency, and even loneliness. And 00:01:35.969 --> 00:01:38.730 I've been resisting it. And this year I've kind 00:01:38.730 --> 00:01:40.629 of been going full force. So that's been growing 00:01:40.629 --> 00:01:44.290 great. And one of my goals was to get started 00:01:44.290 --> 00:01:48.140 back on podcasting. And here I am. So it's my 00:01:48.140 --> 00:01:50.579 I think my first podcast really maybe for the 00:01:50.579 --> 00:01:56.659 year. All right. Man, that's a big list of wins. 00:01:57.420 --> 00:02:00.659 Congratulations. Way to be way to be inspired 00:02:00.659 --> 00:02:02.799 and way to be an action around that inspiration. 00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:06.180 Yeah. You know, what's really interesting and 00:02:06.180 --> 00:02:09.159 I've been thinking about this for a long time 00:02:09.159 --> 00:02:13.259 is when you're in that space, there's a part 00:02:13.259 --> 00:02:15.680 of the brain that feels like you've got to step 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:19.729 up. Because people are relying on you to be either 00:02:19.729 --> 00:02:22.330 mental performance or personal development, self 00:02:22.330 --> 00:02:25.590 -help, whatever. And I feel like that has really 00:02:25.590 --> 00:02:29.729 helped me be a lot more focused and a lot more 00:02:29.729 --> 00:02:33.009 motivated to do things and get things done and 00:02:33.009 --> 00:02:35.830 move the needle forward. Whereas if I wasn't 00:02:35.830 --> 00:02:39.629 in this space, I don't know if I would be moving 00:02:39.629 --> 00:02:43.349 as forward as I am. Yeah, I totally can appreciate 00:02:43.349 --> 00:02:51.830 that. So let's talk about vision. OK. I define 00:02:51.830 --> 00:02:56.930 vision as a clarified story which exists as possibility 00:02:56.930 --> 00:03:00.349 and is intended to be brought into the physical 00:03:00.349 --> 00:03:06.849 realm. Having said that. My question for you 00:03:06.849 --> 00:03:11.129 is. What is your vision? Tell me about your vision, 00:03:11.250 --> 00:03:14.990 Cam. All right. So that's interesting. You know. 00:03:15.629 --> 00:03:19.129 My vision has changed over the years. And prior 00:03:19.129 --> 00:03:21.770 to me getting into this stuff, being an author, 00:03:21.949 --> 00:03:24.610 I don't think I really had a vision. It was just 00:03:24.610 --> 00:03:28.370 to get through another day, to be honest. And 00:03:28.370 --> 00:03:31.289 then, you know, I went on a long journey, over 00:03:31.289 --> 00:03:34.629 100 country journey. And when I came back, my 00:03:34.629 --> 00:03:38.490 vision was to evolve humanity. Because I felt 00:03:38.490 --> 00:03:41.030 like I had learned things and gained insight. 00:03:41.849 --> 00:03:44.129 that weren't really being talked about and i 00:03:44.129 --> 00:03:46.449 thought could be really helpful in helping people 00:03:46.449 --> 00:03:50.530 especially all of us as a whole you know just 00:03:50.530 --> 00:03:54.389 take the next leap and recently it's actually 00:03:54.389 --> 00:03:57.729 been to heal humanity because what i'm finding 00:03:57.729 --> 00:04:02.889 is that a lot of people are hurt and we can't 00:04:02.889 --> 00:04:06.009 really show up for others when we're hurt and 00:04:06.009 --> 00:04:09.250 it really helps to kind of release or I should 00:04:09.250 --> 00:04:11.830 go back and work through that stuff that we're 00:04:11.830 --> 00:04:15.789 carrying and release it in order to move forward. 00:04:16.189 --> 00:04:19.029 And what's really fascinating is when we are 00:04:19.029 --> 00:04:21.649 carrying all these like emotions, it's affecting 00:04:21.649 --> 00:04:24.589 us, but we don't realize it's affecting us. And 00:04:24.589 --> 00:04:26.850 we think the decisions and choices that we're 00:04:26.850 --> 00:04:30.029 making is because it's our own. But it's really 00:04:30.029 --> 00:04:32.610 influenced by a lot of our experiences, especially 00:04:32.610 --> 00:04:36.350 the painful ones. And unless we kind of can access 00:04:36.350 --> 00:04:40.870 and release those things, I don't think we really 00:04:40.870 --> 00:04:44.189 truly get to meet ourselves. So we really get 00:04:44.189 --> 00:04:50.000 to see who we really are. Well articulated. so 00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:52.600 much good stuff to unpack there but i want to 00:04:52.600 --> 00:04:55.399 go back just a little bit because i really want 00:04:55.399 --> 00:04:58.579 our audience to hear this and because i believe 00:04:58.579 --> 00:05:00.860 there are a lot of people out there who like 00:05:00.860 --> 00:05:05.399 you and like myself at one time in my life it 00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:09.000 was just about getting through the current day 00:05:09.000 --> 00:05:13.779 yeah and i don't know about you but that doesn't 00:05:13.779 --> 00:05:19.589 feel very inspiring right right And so so if 00:05:19.589 --> 00:05:21.149 you're listening to this, if you're listening 00:05:21.149 --> 00:05:25.470 to Cam and you're currently in your stage of 00:05:25.470 --> 00:05:27.129 life where you're like, man, I just need to get 00:05:27.129 --> 00:05:32.910 through the day. Really, really open up and listen 00:05:32.910 --> 00:05:38.449 to what Cam's laying down here. So you went through 00:05:38.449 --> 00:05:41.889 that from that. And then you went on a hundred 00:05:41.889 --> 00:05:45.529 country tour, which I want to. have you back 00:05:45.529 --> 00:05:48.269 on the show to hear more about that. Okay. That 00:05:48.269 --> 00:05:50.430 sounds really amazing. Yeah, it was amazing. 00:05:50.649 --> 00:05:55.629 It was definitely an experience that really hard 00:05:55.629 --> 00:05:58.189 to put into words, but there was a lot that came 00:05:58.189 --> 00:06:01.230 out of it. Oh my gosh. I, yeah, I'm sure we got 00:06:01.230 --> 00:06:04.110 to spend some, some significant time on that. 00:06:04.490 --> 00:06:07.689 But I love that you went through this kind of 00:06:07.689 --> 00:06:14.779 very apathetic, lethargic. way of being kind 00:06:14.779 --> 00:06:19.620 of getting through the day to to transitioning 00:06:19.620 --> 00:06:23.839 and moving into a place of a desire to help humanity 00:06:23.839 --> 00:06:27.560 heal like something happened in between there 00:06:27.560 --> 00:06:31.600 that is that is absolutely transformational right 00:06:31.600 --> 00:06:36.029 yeah can you Can you boil that down in a nutshell? 00:06:36.129 --> 00:06:40.050 What was the epiphany or the main epiphany that 00:06:40.050 --> 00:06:45.389 put you on a new trajectory? Well, what started 00:06:45.389 --> 00:06:49.610 is when, you know, growing up, I felt like I 00:06:49.610 --> 00:06:52.069 didn't really connect with a lot of people. A 00:06:52.069 --> 00:06:54.350 lot of people were into the traditional watching 00:06:54.350 --> 00:07:00.149 television, into movies, into sports, going out 00:07:00.149 --> 00:07:04.040 and drinking and consuming. And that was fun 00:07:04.040 --> 00:07:07.339 at a certain point during college and afterwards. 00:07:07.500 --> 00:07:10.740 But after that, I actually wanted more. And I 00:07:10.740 --> 00:07:13.339 really couldn't find it. I was seeking it. I 00:07:13.339 --> 00:07:15.839 traveled all around the country. And it was really 00:07:15.839 --> 00:07:19.060 the same thing over and over. It was just a different 00:07:19.060 --> 00:07:22.160 city or a different town. And then I decided 00:07:22.160 --> 00:07:26.339 to travel internationally. And it was really 00:07:26.339 --> 00:07:30.079 huge because it really opened my eyes. When we're 00:07:30.079 --> 00:07:32.399 living in a certain place, we think that's just 00:07:32.399 --> 00:07:35.500 the way it is. That's all there is to it. And 00:07:35.500 --> 00:07:37.500 there's not much more. It's kind of like fish. 00:07:37.600 --> 00:07:40.019 Fish spend their whole life in water. So they 00:07:40.019 --> 00:07:42.060 don't know that they're wet. They don't realize 00:07:42.060 --> 00:07:44.779 that there's another medium. And then when I 00:07:44.779 --> 00:07:47.680 left, I was like, oh, wow, there's like a whole 00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:51.480 new way of thinking, acting, behaving that doesn't 00:07:51.480 --> 00:07:54.339 revolve on kind of the lifestyle that I knew. 00:07:55.240 --> 00:07:58.480 And that really opened my eyes. And in a way, 00:07:58.480 --> 00:08:03.660 I kind of got addicted to it. It was very novel 00:08:03.660 --> 00:08:08.000 and very, what's the word, like drawing. Like 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:09.800 I really enjoyed it. So I kept traveling. And 00:08:09.800 --> 00:08:12.220 the more I traveled, the different countries 00:08:12.220 --> 00:08:15.870 and continents and places I went to. Always a 00:08:15.870 --> 00:08:18.230 different perspective, always a different experience, 00:08:18.230 --> 00:08:20.449 very different from what I had experienced before 00:08:20.449 --> 00:08:24.170 and prior to and what I had known growing up. 00:08:24.769 --> 00:08:27.550 And through all of these, I kind of gained a 00:08:27.550 --> 00:08:31.529 lot of insights and perspectives of humanity 00:08:31.529 --> 00:08:35.190 and what it means to be human and what we're 00:08:35.190 --> 00:08:39.570 built to actually receive and how, you know, 00:08:39.590 --> 00:08:42.210 we really limit ourselves. So that's one aspect 00:08:42.210 --> 00:08:45.919 of it. But another aspect of it is. I was also 00:08:45.919 --> 00:08:49.639 hurt. I use the word broken. I know some people 00:08:49.639 --> 00:08:51.559 don't like connecting with that word, but I think 00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:54.059 we are all broken in a lot of ways, and I was. 00:08:54.539 --> 00:08:57.720 And it was really affecting me. It colored my 00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:00.200 experience of relationships. You know, growing 00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:02.559 up, I destroyed a lot of my relationships, whether 00:09:02.559 --> 00:09:05.700 it was with friends, family, burned my bridges 00:09:05.700 --> 00:09:09.360 at work. And I always thought it was them. But 00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:13.379 only later did I realize it was me. It wasn't 00:09:13.379 --> 00:09:16.059 really me, but it was what was going on internally 00:09:16.059 --> 00:09:19.559 for me that I didn't even know and wasn't even 00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:22.940 able to access. And once I was able to access 00:09:22.940 --> 00:09:26.799 those things, I was like, oh, wow. And what's 00:09:26.799 --> 00:09:28.539 really interesting, and I see this pattern a 00:09:28.539 --> 00:09:32.240 lot, it happened to me, it's when we're going 00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:34.240 through stuff, it seems like we're the only ones 00:09:34.240 --> 00:09:35.899 that are going through it. like especially if 00:09:35.899 --> 00:09:38.019 you watch media and see everyone happy and living 00:09:38.019 --> 00:09:40.840 a great life and all of that we can't imagine 00:09:40.840 --> 00:09:45.500 they had trauma or they're dealing with their 00:09:45.500 --> 00:09:48.200 own things so at first i thought it was just 00:09:48.200 --> 00:09:52.100 me and i kind of in some ways felt isolated but 00:09:52.100 --> 00:09:54.860 the more i did my work and the more i'm helping 00:09:54.860 --> 00:09:57.240 others heal i'm like oh wow it's like all of 00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.980 us and we all kind of are carrying stuff from 00:10:00.980 --> 00:10:04.139 our past that isn't serving us And we don't realize 00:10:04.139 --> 00:10:06.539 that we're carrying it and we don't realize that 00:10:06.539 --> 00:10:09.320 it's affecting us. And again, unfortunately, 00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.639 because of the way the brain works, there isn't 00:10:11.639 --> 00:10:13.980 a direct line of communication between the conscious 00:10:13.980 --> 00:10:16.799 and unconscious mind. So it's really hard to 00:10:16.799 --> 00:10:20.539 access and see what it is and what's affecting 00:10:20.539 --> 00:10:24.039 us. But if we can do the work, get on the journey, 00:10:24.179 --> 00:10:28.980 it's very pivotal. Yeah, so good. And I want 00:10:28.980 --> 00:10:31.240 to call attention to something you said because, 00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:33.139 again, this is what I want our readers to hear 00:10:33.139 --> 00:10:38.460 because I think this is the most empowering thing 00:10:38.460 --> 00:10:43.720 that if we bring a spotlight to it, it can have 00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:47.720 incredible impact for our lives. You said something 00:10:47.720 --> 00:10:50.600 to the fact that I thought it was everybody else 00:10:50.600 --> 00:10:55.710 around me. Yeah. I realized it was me. Yeah. 00:10:56.149 --> 00:11:00.169 When I, I appreciate this so much because when 00:11:00.169 --> 00:11:04.889 we can begin to take radical responsibility for 00:11:04.889 --> 00:11:09.610 our life, it is absolutely a game changer because 00:11:09.610 --> 00:11:13.049 until we take radical responsibility, we are 00:11:13.049 --> 00:11:16.370 giving the responsibility away to everyone else, 00:11:16.389 --> 00:11:20.299 which leaves us with. without any sort of agency, 00:11:20.559 --> 00:11:23.340 without being cause in the matter of our life. 00:11:23.539 --> 00:11:28.759 When we finally can say, oh, I'm creating these 00:11:28.759 --> 00:11:32.259 conditions in my life. I'm responsible for these 00:11:32.259 --> 00:11:36.679 circumstances. I have the ability to do something 00:11:36.679 --> 00:11:39.659 about it. Suddenly, the game changes. Is that 00:11:39.659 --> 00:11:43.500 accurate? The game changes in huge ways because 00:11:43.500 --> 00:11:46.820 once you can accept that it's you, then you can 00:11:46.820 --> 00:11:49.720 do something about it. Yes. When you keep saying 00:11:49.720 --> 00:11:52.159 that it's everyone else, then there's nothing 00:11:52.159 --> 00:11:56.799 you can do. You become a victim. Yes. And I do 00:11:56.799 --> 00:11:59.179 want to say that sometimes coming to that realization 00:11:59.179 --> 00:12:01.919 isn't easy, even though people could be telling 00:12:01.919 --> 00:12:04.899 you and all the signs are pointing things to 00:12:04.899 --> 00:12:07.620 the fact that it's what you're doing and how 00:12:07.620 --> 00:12:10.460 you're reacting. It's still hard to get to that 00:12:10.460 --> 00:12:12.259 connection. And if you don't mind, I'd love to 00:12:12.259 --> 00:12:15.379 share a quick story about how I. How long it 00:12:15.379 --> 00:12:17.519 took me to even realize it. And I don't think 00:12:17.519 --> 00:12:21.940 most people could get to that point. So I'm just 00:12:21.940 --> 00:12:24.360 going to try to say like, hey, start asking yourself 00:12:24.360 --> 00:12:27.740 now if it's me. And it's like when I was growing 00:12:27.740 --> 00:12:30.960 up, I was struggling with the people around me. 00:12:31.480 --> 00:12:33.820 Things weren't going my way. And I always blamed 00:12:33.820 --> 00:12:36.620 them. And I always thought people here are crazy. 00:12:37.340 --> 00:12:40.620 Then I'm traveling around the U .S. you know, 00:12:40.620 --> 00:12:43.980 interactions and conversations or whatever wouldn't 00:12:43.980 --> 00:12:45.759 go my way. And I'm like, people, you're crazy. 00:12:46.820 --> 00:12:49.120 Then, you know, when I was out of Europe, same 00:12:49.120 --> 00:12:52.759 thing. And I'm like, people, you're crazy. And 00:12:52.759 --> 00:12:55.840 then I was in Argentina and there was this one 00:12:55.840 --> 00:12:58.379 incident that happened on the street. And I'm 00:12:58.379 --> 00:13:01.580 like, people, you're crazy. And then at that 00:13:01.580 --> 00:13:04.960 point, I had a voice enter in my head, go, Cam, 00:13:05.200 --> 00:13:09.899 you know, you've had all this. issues everywhere 00:13:09.899 --> 00:13:13.059 it's like maybe it's not people that are crazy 00:13:13.059 --> 00:13:17.259 maybe it's you and that's when it was like but 00:13:17.259 --> 00:13:20.879 i had to kind of like travel to different parts 00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:23.460 of the world to have those experiences where 00:13:23.460 --> 00:13:27.139 that voice came in and i don't know if most people 00:13:27.139 --> 00:13:30.679 would have that opportunity but i do want people 00:13:30.679 --> 00:13:34.599 to understand that things aren't going well Maybe 00:13:34.599 --> 00:13:36.960 instead of waiting for that voice to come into 00:13:36.960 --> 00:13:40.240 your head or waiting for that epiphany, maybe 00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:42.860 you should just ask yourself or create that epiphany 00:13:42.860 --> 00:13:45.500 for you. Like, how am I contributing to a lot 00:13:45.500 --> 00:13:49.240 of this? Yes. Thanks for sharing that. And I 00:13:49.240 --> 00:13:52.080 want to add, bring in a slightly different angle 00:13:52.080 --> 00:13:55.960 to it, okay? Because you and I have some parallel 00:13:55.960 --> 00:13:59.019 experiences here where I used to think it was 00:13:59.019 --> 00:14:01.259 everybody else. Yeah. Everybody else was the 00:14:01.259 --> 00:14:04.809 problem. Yeah. if they would simply think like 00:14:04.809 --> 00:14:08.809 me boy the world would be work a lot better right 00:14:08.809 --> 00:14:11.970 yeah what i know now cam is that if everybody 00:14:11.970 --> 00:14:14.730 thought like me the world would be in a in a 00:14:14.730 --> 00:14:20.309 real heap of trouble right so um what i want 00:14:20.309 --> 00:14:25.750 people to hear is this it's not you that's the 00:14:25.750 --> 00:14:30.730 problem it's it's your programming it is it is 00:14:30.730 --> 00:14:34.960 the patternistic ways Which that you think and 00:14:34.960 --> 00:14:38.019 not even that you think that the brain thinks 00:14:38.019 --> 00:14:42.960 because the brain is simply a collection of of 00:14:42.960 --> 00:14:45.360 like just like my phone has a bunch of mobile 00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.840 apps on it. Right. And it has an operating system. 00:14:49.179 --> 00:14:52.500 And so the operating system determines how it 00:14:52.500 --> 00:14:57.179 processes incoming information. Your brain or 00:14:57.179 --> 00:15:01.980 our brains are simply a collection of apps. and 00:15:01.980 --> 00:15:05.340 it has an operating system which determines how 00:15:05.340 --> 00:15:11.059 it how it processes incoming data now not good 00:15:11.059 --> 00:15:12.840 bad right or wrong that's just an explanation 00:15:12.840 --> 00:15:16.580 of how this thing inside the brain works we frequently 00:15:16.580 --> 00:15:19.860 and mistakenly think that we are the brain or 00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:25.960 the brain it's not and when we realize that the 00:15:25.960 --> 00:15:29.159 brain is simply an operating system then we can 00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:32.840 get curious We realize that we're the observer 00:15:32.840 --> 00:15:37.419 of our thinking. We begin to influence our thinking 00:15:37.419 --> 00:15:40.960 and correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's 00:15:40.960 --> 00:15:43.500 what many of your books are talking about is 00:15:43.500 --> 00:15:48.620 how to begin to rewire and influence this organ 00:15:48.620 --> 00:15:52.059 that is housed within the skull. Is that accurate? 00:15:52.480 --> 00:15:54.759 A hundred percent. And I want to rip on a couple 00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:57.779 of things you're saying is yes. I'm glad you 00:15:57.779 --> 00:16:00.519 make a distinction in saying it's not you. It's 00:16:00.519 --> 00:16:05.659 actually what's going on internally for you and 00:16:05.659 --> 00:16:08.360 what the thoughts that the brain is creating, 00:16:08.419 --> 00:16:11.759 the triggers your brain is also stimulating and 00:16:11.759 --> 00:16:14.820 all that. And because it's not you choosing to 00:16:14.820 --> 00:16:18.919 do it. you can step back and observe it happening 00:16:18.919 --> 00:16:21.100 and seeing, is this serving me? Can I change 00:16:21.100 --> 00:16:23.620 it? And things like that. So that's a very important 00:16:23.620 --> 00:16:25.700 distinction. Yeah, it's not you, but what's going 00:16:25.700 --> 00:16:28.279 on internally. And that's a great thing because 00:16:28.279 --> 00:16:30.659 at least we can change what's going on internally. 00:16:31.120 --> 00:16:34.080 And that's really a lot of my focus has been 00:16:34.080 --> 00:16:38.559 is helping people understand how these different 00:16:38.559 --> 00:16:42.220 apps that you will work, why they're working 00:16:42.220 --> 00:16:45.769 the way they are. what causes them, what triggers 00:16:45.769 --> 00:16:51.769 them and what and to what extent and how to either 00:16:51.769 --> 00:16:55.909 work with it, change it and to do it in the most 00:16:55.909 --> 00:16:59.570 easiest way possible. Yes. Yeah. And so this 00:16:59.570 --> 00:17:04.009 is the crux of your work. And this is the you 00:17:04.009 --> 00:17:06.250 have methodologies developed that you've developed. 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:09.720 to help people become aware of how they learn, 00:17:09.880 --> 00:17:14.619 become aware of how the brain, some general idea 00:17:14.619 --> 00:17:18.240 of how the brain works and then how to influence. 00:17:20.009 --> 00:17:22.390 the workings of it in order to produce different 00:17:22.390 --> 00:17:24.609 outcomes. Yeah, produce the outcome that you 00:17:24.609 --> 00:17:27.390 want. And so I work on three main areas, the 00:17:27.390 --> 00:17:30.650 mental, emotional, and physical level. So a lot 00:17:30.650 --> 00:17:32.890 of my books, which is where I started off with, 00:17:33.029 --> 00:17:35.430 they focus a lot more on the mental level. So 00:17:35.430 --> 00:17:38.710 I've got books on memory, concentration, speed 00:17:38.710 --> 00:17:42.130 reading, and then also things like self -talk, 00:17:42.269 --> 00:17:45.559 which are really helpful. And then the technique 00:17:45.559 --> 00:17:48.660 I do now, which is a one -on -one, it works on 00:17:48.660 --> 00:17:52.079 the emotional level. And this is where my vision 00:17:52.079 --> 00:17:54.779 for healing the world comes in. And then in between 00:17:54.779 --> 00:17:57.240 that, it's a physical level, which is diet and 00:17:57.240 --> 00:18:01.519 exercise and things like that. So yeah, my focus 00:18:01.519 --> 00:18:04.980 is always on going into the inside, working on 00:18:04.980 --> 00:18:07.299 the inside. Because once we can change what's 00:18:07.299 --> 00:18:10.920 going on internally, it's considerably easier 00:18:10.920 --> 00:18:16.200 to... allow us to do take the actions and create 00:18:16.200 --> 00:18:19.019 the outcomes that we want on the outside what 00:18:19.019 --> 00:18:21.019 a lot of people are doing is trying to change 00:18:21.019 --> 00:18:23.339 the outside and then they have to battle with 00:18:23.339 --> 00:18:26.240 their inside and then it's it's tough because 00:18:26.240 --> 00:18:29.319 you got to use a lot of will and unless you change 00:18:29.319 --> 00:18:31.680 what's going on in the inside the inside doesn't 00:18:31.680 --> 00:18:35.779 give up it'll fight against you until the day 00:18:35.779 --> 00:18:39.200 you die And eventually you'll get worn out and 00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:41.400 it'll wane. And so this is the reason people 00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:44.720 make progress for such short periods of time. 00:18:45.299 --> 00:18:48.319 But if we can work on changing the inside, then 00:18:48.319 --> 00:18:52.000 we can reduce a lot of the resistance we ourselves 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:54.700 are creating, makes it easier to do the thing, 00:18:54.779 --> 00:18:56.819 and then we can kind of make the progress that 00:18:56.819 --> 00:19:01.000 we want. Yes, yes. I got to champion just what 00:19:01.000 --> 00:19:02.880 you said there, right? Because it is so good. 00:19:03.099 --> 00:19:06.039 And again, I really want... our folks to hear 00:19:06.039 --> 00:19:10.980 this imagine living on a planet with eight eight 00:19:10.980 --> 00:19:14.819 plus billion people and and let's just go down 00:19:14.819 --> 00:19:17.599 to your even your city okay let's say you got 00:19:17.599 --> 00:19:19.579 you know well i live in a small city it's only 00:19:19.579 --> 00:19:22.059 5 000 people but let me just take that because 00:19:22.059 --> 00:19:26.559 it'll be a better example if i have issues with 00:19:26.559 --> 00:19:30.960 every all these 5 000 people internally i'm going 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:33.490 to be like i have to change All the behavior 00:19:33.490 --> 00:19:36.670 of these 5 ,000 people. So it'll, so they align 00:19:36.670 --> 00:19:42.450 with what I want. Can you imagine what a challenging 00:19:42.450 --> 00:19:46.690 job it would be to go and get all these 5 ,000 00:19:46.690 --> 00:19:48.990 people to agree with me, to think like me, to 00:19:48.990 --> 00:19:52.109 behave like me, to, to exercise like me, to eat 00:19:52.109 --> 00:19:56.410 like me, to believe what I know. Right. And then 00:19:56.410 --> 00:19:59.500 every time you meet a new person. Immediately 00:19:59.500 --> 00:20:01.960 you feel this need to change them. Exactly. And 00:20:01.960 --> 00:20:06.119 it would be a maddening job because I can't change 00:20:06.119 --> 00:20:10.920 other people. So if I take the attitude of, oh, 00:20:11.079 --> 00:20:16.420 what if I simply become more influential in my 00:20:16.420 --> 00:20:22.480 ways of being and how I respond? That's way more 00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:27.619 accessible. Yeah. Right. And and that. I mean, 00:20:27.619 --> 00:20:31.099 that's the spiritual work that I'm doing in my 00:20:31.099 --> 00:20:34.819 own life. It's just, when I say spiritual, I 00:20:34.819 --> 00:20:39.980 mean, spiritual to me means removing the areas 00:20:39.980 --> 00:20:45.319 of turbulence, removing the areas of upset, right? 00:20:45.519 --> 00:20:47.619 I'm getting curious about why those triggers 00:20:47.619 --> 00:20:52.710 are there and learning how to remove those. And 00:20:52.710 --> 00:20:56.109 I just want to add, if I may, and it's not just 00:20:56.109 --> 00:20:58.170 with people. It's not just about your interaction 00:20:58.170 --> 00:21:00.890 with people where you change yourself, but it's 00:21:00.890 --> 00:21:03.529 also the success that you want to have. Whether 00:21:03.529 --> 00:21:07.630 that you want to start working out, write a book, 00:21:07.829 --> 00:21:11.690 travel, get a better job, start your own business. 00:21:12.049 --> 00:21:14.509 All of those things also start from changing 00:21:14.509 --> 00:21:16.890 what's going on for you internally. And if you 00:21:16.890 --> 00:21:20.789 can rewire yourself in a way where it triggers 00:21:20.789 --> 00:21:24.190 motivation. in the morning for you to get up 00:21:24.190 --> 00:21:27.970 early and do the necessary work. It's much easier 00:21:27.970 --> 00:21:30.210 than when you wake up in the morning, you're 00:21:30.210 --> 00:21:32.069 lying in bed and trying to force yourself to 00:21:32.069 --> 00:21:35.910 get out. Yes. But to do the necessary things 00:21:35.910 --> 00:21:38.809 to get the result that you want. Yeah. I think 00:21:38.809 --> 00:21:42.190 in short, what we're talking about here is changing 00:21:42.190 --> 00:21:46.670 to a different playbook. And this playbook says, 00:21:46.789 --> 00:21:49.920 let's focus on the internal game. Yes. Right. 00:21:50.859 --> 00:21:52.980 That's what it is. Yeah. Yeah. Because when you 00:21:52.980 --> 00:21:55.579 can learn to become proficient at influencing 00:21:55.579 --> 00:21:59.859 your internal game, it's going to have a massive 00:21:59.859 --> 00:22:02.980 impact on the external game. Massive. And again, 00:22:03.099 --> 00:22:05.240 in different areas, whether that's improving 00:22:05.240 --> 00:22:08.539 your physical self, the outcome you want to have 00:22:08.539 --> 00:22:11.799 in your life, and more importantly, your interactions 00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:16.220 with people. Right. Right. Well, we have to wrap 00:22:16.220 --> 00:22:18.400 this up. But here's what I want to say to our 00:22:18.400 --> 00:22:23.859 public. Okay. Cam Knight has written a number 00:22:23.859 --> 00:22:26.599 of books and you can access them at camknight 00:22:26.599 --> 00:22:31.480 .com. I took some time to look through the reviews. 00:22:31.700 --> 00:22:35.319 He has a ton of reviews on these books, all very 00:22:35.319 --> 00:22:40.220 glowing, or at least the ones I read. So he's 00:22:40.220 --> 00:22:42.960 definitely developed something very special here 00:22:42.960 --> 00:22:46.599 and very effective. And that's coming from the 00:22:46.599 --> 00:22:50.079 people who have reviewed your books. I've gotten 00:22:50.079 --> 00:22:54.180 over 10 ,000 reviews on Amazon. Over 10 ,000 00:22:54.180 --> 00:22:58.519 reviews. Wow. That is impressive. Congratulations. 00:22:59.420 --> 00:23:03.119 Thank you very much. Yeah, yeah. And so if you're 00:23:03.119 --> 00:23:08.019 looking to improve memory, learn how to retain 00:23:08.019 --> 00:23:11.940 facts faster, learn how to read faster, go to 00:23:11.940 --> 00:23:15.880 camknight .com. and check out some of his material. 00:23:16.220 --> 00:23:18.240 Cam, is there anything else you'd like us to 00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:20.940 know before we wrap this up? Yeah, I just have 00:23:20.940 --> 00:23:23.779 a free gift for everybody listening.
