So the big question is this.
How do young men like us who didn't listen to society, who are on our own, how do we
grow and improve ourselves so that we can live a better tomorrow?
That is the question and this show will give you the answers.
My name is James Radzinski and this is the Ascend Momentum Show.
Welcome back everyone.
I want to start off today's episode by telling you a little something about where I am recording
from this episode.
So following yesterday's episode and how I was self-conscious when someone walked by,
I decided to fix it and record someplace else.
In the place, I packed all my, someone's walking by again.
I guess I haven't fixed it, but I definitely made it better because what I did was I just
packed my bag, brought a water book, brought my voice recorder and packed it, biked over
to my local park and I climbed a tree and now I'm up in the tree with all my stuff recording.
So this is a pretty fun experience and I'm right next to the highway so I'm not sure
if you guys will hear it but it's pretty loud so I imagine you guys will.
Someone's walking by again.
I have a prediction.
I predict that people walking by will not see me because I'm in this tree.
People don't look at the trees anymore nowadays so I can use that to my advantage and record
in the tree.
But I'm trying to find a spot where I can sit down or at least find a comfortable position
because right now I'm kind of just jumping between two branches trying to keep moving
so I don't stand all day but I am also barefoot.
I packed my slides so it wouldn't hurt to bike but when I come to the park I'm just
barefoot and I actually like it a lot.
I'm training my feet right now making my toes wider.
Man, it's a beautiful day out.
If you guys ever have an opportunity to I 100% recommend Climatree.
It's a great experience.
So I wanted to talk about something that I read.
I finished the E-Mith Revisited yesterday.
And it's a good book but the end lasts like two or three chapters like the afterword all
those chapters.
That was really where the value came from the book for me at least.
And there's a few quotes that he had at the beginning of the chapters that really stuck
with me.
One of them was from I'm pretty sure an ancient Chinese proverb and it's if you hear something
you forget it.
If you see something you remember it and if you do something you understand it.
And when I read that I had to take a moment and think because that was truly a great quote.
Because if and the way that applies to me at least what I can see right now is if I watch
a video I'll just forget about it.
If I read the book I'll remember it but it won't be until I actually take action and
do what the book says until I really understand the concepts, understand the feelings, just
understand everything to do with that idea.
And that has a lot to do with entrepreneurship too.
I've been reading all this stuff but I haven't really been acting and that's my issue.
So I realized that I'm kind of just waiting for a future thing to happen which for me
is my birthday so I can open my own bank account and I'm not really doing anything in preparation
for it.
And that's why the next book I'm reading after the EMIF which I actually started today is
Reality Transurfing and I've gotten 10 pages in so far and I already realized that that
book has all the answers that I need.
That book will reteach me everything I need to move forward.
I've already read it once a couple months ago but I really feel that I need to read
it again right now.
Because I feel as though I'm on the wrong path, I'm on...
I don't feel like I'm achieving my goals, how I'm supposed to.
And that book will give me insights on what to do or at least how to think.
Someone's walking by again.
Bro, people simply just do not look at the trees anymore because someone just walked
by and did not even look up.
So make a habit of looking at the trees and becoming mesmerized by them and in awe.
But that someone's about to walk by again.
Another quote I wanted to talk about.
What was it?
It's from the EMIF.
Oh yeah, it was at the end of the book when he was talking about entrepreneurship and
mindset and just how you need to actually work towards it.
So he said, there's a quote I don't remember from who, but it said, you have to earn freedom.
You can't get freedom for free, you have to earn it and work towards it.
Freedom's not given to you.
You must achieve it.
And that really hit me because I'm working on entrepreneurship.
Sorry, there's a train in the background.
It'll be gone in two seconds, but I'm working on entrepreneurship and the I've been thinking
about it for a long time.
The reason why I am doing entrepreneurship and working on business is because I want to
be set free from this life and from society.
And that's all I really want right now to be free and to have my freedom, but I'm not
earning it.
I'm just sitting around reading books all day, not doing anything.
So I'm curious, I'm questioning if I'm even on the right track, if I'm doing what I'm
supposed to be doing.
But yeah, that's the lesson today.
You have to act to be able to understand and you have to act to earn your freedom.
Freedom is earned.
I have to achieve the freedom.
So that's about it.
Sorry, this episode wasn't very good.
I'm going to try and find some new areas where I can record that are more secluded so I can
have privacy and won't get distracted.
So I won't lose my focus very often.
Alright, that's the end of the episode.
Thanks for listening and have a great day.
