1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,900
What is oppressing you? So I want to talk about things that are going on in our

2
00:00:09,900 --> 00:00:17,720
mind and external factors that are affecting our behaviors, thoughts,

3
00:00:17,720 --> 00:00:26,560
attitude, mood, worldview. All of this stuff can be affected by simple things.

4
00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:31,200
Like, I've got something oppressing me right now in my mind mentally and I

5
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:35,840
don't know what exactly it is but I have a prediction that it might be school.

6
00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:43,120
So I'm reading a book called 10x is easier than 2x and he's pretty much

7
00:00:43,120 --> 00:00:51,680
talking about the part that I'm on right now is he's saying you have to be focusing

8
00:00:51,680 --> 00:01:00,200
on the 20%. So let me explain the 20%. We have 80% of our activities are

9
00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:04,960
comfortable. We've been doing them for a while. We're pretty good at them. We could

10
00:01:04,960 --> 00:01:13,400
be excellent at them and they're kind of just us doing those activities for 80%

11
00:01:13,400 --> 00:01:18,400
of the time is just complacency. We're just okay with where we're at right now.

12
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:33,560
But then there's the 20% excuse me. It's the 20% that is this 20% is what is

13
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:39,960
gonna move us forward. So the 80% is what got us here. Like what got you here

14
00:01:39,960 --> 00:01:46,400
won't get you there and the 20% is what will get you there. But unfortunately we

15
00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:55,080
only spent 20% of our time getting us there and so what the 10x process is

16
00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:04,360
all about is dropping all of the 80% or finding the right who finding the

17
00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:12,080
right person finding the right somebody to take on that 80% so that can still be

18
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:20,000
maintained and excelled and like improved upon but you just have to not do it

19
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:25,320
yourself because now you have to focus on that 20%. This 20% is what will help you

20
00:02:25,320 --> 00:02:34,080
move forward. And for me I think that my 80% is school. I'm a high school student.

21
00:02:34,080 --> 00:02:41,240
It's October 4th and I graduate probably like December 20th so I've got like two

22
00:02:41,240 --> 00:02:49,120
months left. I'm a senior so I got two months left but I just I just know that

23
00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:54,080
I shouldn't be doing school. Like there's just I can't find a single

24
00:02:54,080 --> 00:03:02,000
benefit to school. Like before my one benefit that I would always fall back on

25
00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:06,160
I'd say school sucks. The only thing that's good about it is the social aspect.

26
00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:12,440
The social piece. But now I'm not even sure if the social piece is even good

27
00:03:12,440 --> 00:03:18,520
either because I'm noticing I'm reading all these books and I'm realizing that

28
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:24,560
everyone is fake. Like I was watching this movie called I'm pretty sure it's

29
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:30,680
called The Visit and I was watching it in first period in my humanities class

30
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:39,120
and it's basically a movie that was made in like the 1900s and it's black and

31
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:45,920
white. And in the movie it's based off of a film or not a film a play and so it's

32
00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:55,400
basically about how this woman was with a man and then something like the man

33
00:03:55,400 --> 00:04:02,720
like the woman had a baby with him and then she like went up to him and told

34
00:04:02,720 --> 00:04:08,160
him about it and then the man like married someone else. So then the woman

35
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:16,280
left like the town and then she became the world's richest person because she

36
00:04:16,280 --> 00:04:22,400
married some other guy who owned 5% of the world. Like imagine owning 5% of the

37
00:04:22,400 --> 00:04:30,560
world. I don't know what the world GDP is but you probably be instantly you

38
00:04:30,560 --> 00:04:37,240
might even be a trillionaire if you own 5% of the world. I don't even know. But if

39
00:04:37,240 --> 00:04:43,760
so she pretty much married this husband who owned 5% of the world and then he

40
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:51,040
died so she inherited 5% of the world. And then turns out that the town that she

41
00:04:51,040 --> 00:05:00,920
grew up in which is the same town that that man still lives in that town was is

42
00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:05,920
struggling and they're like going bankrupt and the town is just dying

43
00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:10,200
pretty much like there's no money coming in anymore they had to shut down all the

44
00:05:10,200 --> 00:05:16,320
factories the mines like all of this stuff they the town is struggling and so

45
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:24,080
pretty much they expected a visit from the woman and everyone was preparing

46
00:05:24,080 --> 00:05:32,680
everyone was getting their nicest fanciest gear fanciest clothing all of

47
00:05:32,680 --> 00:05:38,600
this stuff they're getting their fanciest dresses on like suits they're all

48
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:49,720
dressing up perfectly for her visit and then once she guy here she was like

49
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:55,200
walking around with the guy that she had a baby with now I don't know what

50
00:05:55,200 --> 00:06:01,720
happened to the baby because I never saw the baby or the the kid so I don't

51
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:08,360
think the baby is a important part of the movie because I didn't see it yet so

52
00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:14,520
pretty much he's walking around with this guy all like looking at the town and

53
00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:21,200
then reminiscing on old times but you can tell that she's being extremely what's

54
00:06:21,200 --> 00:06:30,920
the word she's being like kind of fake but not fake but she's kind of she's

55
00:06:30,920 --> 00:06:36,640
got an ulterior motive so she's kind of leading him on so like for example if she

56
00:06:36,640 --> 00:06:42,560
was saying right when they they met up and by the way when she came it was this

57
00:06:42,560 --> 00:06:49,120
huge thing like the whole town came and gathered around to watch like to see her

58
00:06:49,120 --> 00:06:55,360
and then there was like signs and everything posters all this stuff but

59
00:06:55,360 --> 00:07:01,520
pretty much the when the man and the woman the richest woman and then her

60
00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:07,520
ex I'm just gonna say ex-boyfriend when the ex-boyfriend and the woman were

61
00:07:07,520 --> 00:07:12,800
walking around she was saying yeah I I planned out this I was thinking about

62
00:07:12,800 --> 00:07:18,840
this these moments or I was thinking about this visit for over 20 years I

63
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:25,280
was thinking about this ever since I left and so she was saying like but then

64
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:29,240
she was also leading him on to where she was doing good she was thinking

65
00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:34,760
positively and then but then she would also kind of drop hints that she was not

66
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:40,200
happy so then they walk around they visit like their old places that they

67
00:07:40,200 --> 00:07:45,360
used to go to there was this tree that they went to that they carved a heart

68
00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:51,200
with their initials so like initial plus initial and then it's a heart in the

69
00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:58,000
tree they went there they just went all around and then the the whole thing that

70
00:07:58,000 --> 00:08:05,640
I'm leading up to this is all back so context so then they the whole town or

71
00:08:05,640 --> 00:08:11,080
all the important officials of the town gathered into this extremely nice

72
00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:19,360
dining room and they all had dinner and this the woman was sitting at the end of

73
00:08:19,360 --> 00:08:24,360
the table like she was the centerpiece and then the to the mayor of the town

74
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:32,280
and then the ex-boyfriend were on both sides of her and this was kind of

75
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:38,920
symbolic because then the mayor gave a speech pretty much said like how amazing

76
00:08:38,920 --> 00:08:44,200
this woman was how awesome she is and all the good that she's done but it was

77
00:08:44,200 --> 00:08:49,480
all lies he was basically being fake and then the woman exposed him for that

78
00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:55,240
like absolutely exposed him she was like yes this guy spoke so highly of me yet

79
00:08:55,240 --> 00:09:01,800
everything was false it was all a lie he was just lying because she knew that

80
00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:07,040
everyone was being fake everyone was being fake they were just trying to look

81
00:09:07,040 --> 00:09:11,960
out for themselves and they were just being fake and honestly when I was

82
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:18,440
watching it I was I was just thinking about my current situation like everyone

83
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:23,600
is just fake to each other and you can tell because I'm just like walking around

84
00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:29,840
the hallway and I mean I've seen many different things like this group of just

85
00:09:29,840 --> 00:09:33,880
one example that just popped in my head was this group of girls they were all

86
00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:38,520
they looked like friends and then they all like went to sit down but there

87
00:09:38,520 --> 00:09:43,840
wasn't enough seats for there was enough seats for everyone except for one and so

88
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:54,280
the one had to sit down back back a row and kind of had to third wheel with the

89
00:09:54,280 --> 00:09:58,000
group and it was just pretty saddening to see because the group definitely knew

90
00:09:58,000 --> 00:10:02,880
that she was she didn't have enough seats and they still chose to sit there

91
00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,920
anyways that's just one example and I see this all the time every single day

92
00:10:06,920 --> 00:10:11,520
which is sad and then I also see in my current current relationships as well

93
00:10:11,520 --> 00:10:17,880
like people don't really care they just kind of say courtesy and they don't

94
00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:25,440
really care much about you like for example today I was just sitting there

95
00:10:25,440 --> 00:10:31,240
and not a single person talked to me the entire class period now that was

96
00:10:31,240 --> 00:10:36,080
probably my fault because I was I was in the mood not necessarily in the mood but

97
00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:41,280
I was just kind of like chilling and I was just kind of just trying to get through

98
00:10:41,280 --> 00:10:49,640
the gym class but no one really like said a word and just I don't know it's

99
00:10:49,640 --> 00:10:55,040
they're not really genuine relationships that you form in high school and

100
00:10:55,040 --> 00:10:59,600
that's that's like pretty much the moral of the story that I just told is

101
00:10:59,600 --> 00:11:04,360
everyone is fake in high school and that's that's another reason why I just

102
00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:08,640
don't see any benefit to high school like going to school because I'm not

103
00:11:08,640 --> 00:11:14,400
learning anything you know I've always like last week I went I was out of town

104
00:11:14,400 --> 00:11:21,920
all week and so I missed an entire week of school that's 20 hours of class like I

105
00:11:21,920 --> 00:11:28,560
lost I missed 20 hours of being in school and I had to make it all up and

106
00:11:28,560 --> 00:11:33,840
you know how long it took one hour to make up all of the work like that's

107
00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:39,040
just that just goes to show how like it's not even efficient for time it's not

108
00:11:39,040 --> 00:11:44,600
even time efficient and it's not it's like the people are fake so all my life

109
00:11:44,600 --> 00:11:49,200
I I knew I'm not sure about elementary school but definitely in middle school I

110
00:11:49,200 --> 00:11:57,080
knew that school was a waste and I knew that I didn't like it I knew all these

111
00:11:57,080 --> 00:12:06,520
things but the thing is that I was the only thing that I was holding on to was

112
00:12:06,520 --> 00:12:12,920
the fact that it was that I had that social piece but now I don't even think

113
00:12:12,920 --> 00:12:18,880
that that's good enough anymore so I have like two months left of school I'm not

114
00:12:18,880 --> 00:12:24,880
sure if I can even bear it because I've I don't know I just feel oppressed 24

115
00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:31,240
seven now I think that it will help once I like get back to normal sleep because

116
00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:36,760
I was talking about this yesterday how my sleep was messed up all week last week

117
00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:42,840
and then I went back to kind of normal sleep for the past few days but I I'm

118
00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,680
still missing like 30 minutes of sleep I think because when I'm meditating I'm

119
00:12:47,680 --> 00:12:51,800
basically sleeping the whole time and I can't even get down as deep of of a

120
00:12:51,800 --> 00:12:57,320
meditation as I used to be able to so I think that I got to get my sleep

121
00:12:57,320 --> 00:13:03,600
improved upon and just I think that it'll get better once I improve my sleep

122
00:13:03,600 --> 00:13:10,720
but I don't know and that's another thing like I okay let me explain let me I

123
00:13:10,720 --> 00:13:19,880
want to completely shift the topic I I have okay so I leave all my books I

124
00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:25,480
store all my books that I read in my closet and I have like maybe a hundred

125
00:13:25,480 --> 00:13:29,880
books in there I don't know how many but I have a lot of books I have four piles

126
00:13:29,880 --> 00:13:34,840
and they're they're like they're like pretty tall they're a few maybe a few

127
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:42,760
feet or maybe one or two feet tall and I have four piles of books and before my

128
00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:49,720
old kind of organization system was this last pile was like trash books that

129
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,920
I'm not gonna read or I read and they suck the second to the right pile is

130
00:13:54,920 --> 00:14:02,560
books that I there are right and I am not gonna read I've read them but I am

131
00:14:02,560 --> 00:14:14,520
not gonna read them again the middle left pile is like books that were decent

132
00:14:14,800 --> 00:14:19,480
or books that were good like ATR that I definitely plan on reading again and

133
00:14:19,480 --> 00:14:25,360
then the left pile is books that I am currently reading that I'm studying so

134
00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:32,440
that would be like expert secrets reality trans surfing and the like those

135
00:14:32,440 --> 00:14:40,160
two books but pretty much I realized I need like a lot more room because I

136
00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:45,480
bought like five more books so I have to kind of reorganize my books so I got

137
00:14:45,480 --> 00:14:51,200
rid of a bunch of the trash books and then put them in my attic and then I

138
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:57,560
reorganized my entire shelf so right now I just have the right side the entire

139
00:14:57,560 --> 00:15:04,560
right side is all books the two right rows or the two right what is the word

140
00:15:04,560 --> 00:15:10,520
stacks the two right stacks are both books that I'm not planning on reading

141
00:15:10,520 --> 00:15:17,440
and then or at least books that I may read in the far future like books that

142
00:15:17,440 --> 00:15:22,920
I'm not gonna read anytime soon at least for maybe a year or a few months

143
00:15:22,920 --> 00:15:26,600
depending on how things turn out because there is one book that I definitely

144
00:15:26,600 --> 00:15:34,080
plan on reading before I move out and it's ultra learning but I'm not gonna

145
00:15:34,080 --> 00:15:38,840
read that until I move out so that that may be a month that may be a year I don't

146
00:15:38,840 --> 00:15:47,000
know how long it'll take and then the so those right side I'm not even touching

147
00:15:47,000 --> 00:15:52,200
I'm not even looking at and then there's the left two stacks are the books that

148
00:15:52,200 --> 00:16:00,600
I'm like focusing on so the right okay so the middle left stack is business

149
00:16:00,600 --> 00:16:06,720
books that I am studying so that's the secrets trilogy and what else was there

150
00:16:06,720 --> 00:16:17,040
in there I think that's it the secrets trilogy and then there might be one oh

151
00:16:17,040 --> 00:16:21,840
create don't capture which I'm not even sure if it's released yet I got the

152
00:16:21,840 --> 00:16:26,760
early release edition for from fun and locking live and then 10x is easier than

153
00:16:26,760 --> 00:16:30,800
2x those all those business books even though 10x easier than 2x isn't

154
00:16:30,800 --> 00:16:34,200
necessarily a business book but that's like my entrepreneur book even though I

155
00:16:34,200 --> 00:16:41,240
have a lot more entrepreneur books like for our work week the lean startup the

156
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:47,200
emeth revisited I have a bunch of like when I first decided to go all in on

157
00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:53,600
entrepreneurship and business I bought like probably 10 entrepreneur books and

158
00:16:53,600 --> 00:16:59,080
business books and I only read like two of them so all of those books are not in

159
00:16:59,080 --> 00:17:05,040
that pile because I I like I'm not focused on those books right now I don't

160
00:17:05,040 --> 00:17:11,200
want to read them anytime soon so the middle left is business books that I'm

161
00:17:11,200 --> 00:17:19,840
actually using at the moment so all of Russell's books and then the create don't

162
00:17:19,840 --> 00:17:26,200
capture and then 10x is easier than 2x which I guess is a mindset book more

163
00:17:26,200 --> 00:17:29,960
than entrepreneur book but I want that in that pile because that just makes sense

164
00:17:29,960 --> 00:17:35,000
to me but I am creating 10x is easier than 2x right now I'm like almost halfway

165
00:17:35,000 --> 00:17:39,760
done so I'm it's not in that pile yet but once I'm done with the output in that

166
00:17:39,760 --> 00:17:45,320
pile and then on the left side is very important all of my spiritual books or

167
00:17:45,320 --> 00:17:50,480
worldview books like all I don't really know what the genre is but I have an

168
00:17:50,480 --> 00:17:57,880
idea of what the genre is so pretty much all of the books that are in the

169
00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:01,880
reading list the ultimate reading list for human beings the reading list that

170
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:08,600
I've been talking about forever for the past like month it's if you just look

171
00:18:08,600 --> 00:18:12,960
up the most beautiful world and then go to like books and then go on the top

172
00:18:12,960 --> 00:18:16,600
right says reading list you'll be able to see it and I've talked about it

173
00:18:16,600 --> 00:18:21,280
plenty of times on this podcast but pretty much I'm going all in on that

174
00:18:21,280 --> 00:18:27,160
reading list because I definitely think that it's extremely valuable for me and

175
00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:35,920
I definitely still want to be reading like I really want I want to reread

176
00:18:35,920 --> 00:18:41,000
reality trans surfing and expert secrets and then I want to reread 10x is

177
00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,640
easier than 2x in the future so I'll be interspersing those books with my

178
00:18:46,640 --> 00:18:53,240
ultimate reading list books and the reason why I'm doing this is because in

179
00:18:53,240 --> 00:19:00,120
the blog post that he posted for this reading list he basically said a bunch

180
00:19:00,120 --> 00:19:04,920
of different things so many different things for example he said learn about

181
00:19:04,920 --> 00:19:11,400
what the world was like before this certain era or before it was like destroyed

182
00:19:11,400 --> 00:19:18,080
or I don't even know but he just there's so many things that he said like

183
00:19:18,080 --> 00:19:22,280
actual projection and remote viewing when I first read those I had never even

184
00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,760
heard of them and I got into it a little bit and I haven't been able to succeed

185
00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:32,960
in doing it yet but I'm like working on it and so all these things he's talked

186
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:39,800
about so many different things in this just the intro just the blog post and

187
00:19:39,800 --> 00:19:46,320
that's why I really want to get into it because he has like this amazing worldview

188
00:19:46,320 --> 00:19:52,040
that I'm I really want to have I want to have like the worldview that he has

189
00:19:52,040 --> 00:19:57,120
because he wrote a book called Dancing After Music stops and on the back cover

190
00:19:57,120 --> 00:20:01,560
of it he literally said the type of books or the type of book that will make you

191
00:20:01,560 --> 00:20:06,640
want to drop out of school and I want to drop out of school and so I like he's

192
00:20:06,640 --> 00:20:11,840
just got a he just speaks on my wavelengths he speaks my frequency and

193
00:20:11,840 --> 00:20:15,960
that's why I'm getting all into this reading list especially because it's

194
00:20:15,960 --> 00:20:25,960
this he he he kind of what's the word he gave me a new strategy to read books he

195
00:20:25,960 --> 00:20:33,320
basically said to read seven books at a time and like kind of read one until you

196
00:20:33,320 --> 00:20:37,080
lose focus switch to the next reading that until it was focused and then just

197
00:20:37,080 --> 00:20:40,120
keep on cycling through them and then interspersed with push-ups every once

198
00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:46,280
while and he just said that that is a reading method that you can use to

199
00:20:46,280 --> 00:20:52,760
basically read a book every day every single day one book a day which is

200
00:20:52,760 --> 00:20:58,280
insane because I struggle reading a book a week like even though I read a lot

201
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,120
like over summer I was pretty much reading all day that was like my only

202
00:21:02,120 --> 00:21:06,320
thing that I did all day that in the gym I would go to the gym and then read all

203
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:10,920
day like that's pretty much it and I would still struggle reading a book a

204
00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:18,480
week I would be able to I remember I read dot-com secrets extra secrets and

205
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:23,040
traffic secrets probably in three and a half to four weeks so that's three books

206
00:21:23,040 --> 00:21:28,320
in not a week each so I know that it's impressive to read a book a week and

207
00:21:28,320 --> 00:21:33,520
there's like challenges to do that but he said that this method allows you to

208
00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:38,880
read a book a day and then he went on to say that the reading method that the

209
00:21:38,880 --> 00:21:45,960
that school system taught you is terrible like they expect you to read from A to Z

210
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:51,600
and then pick up like and then pick up a new book but no one has the attention

211
00:21:51,600 --> 00:21:56,160
span he basically said no one has the attention span to do that and so that's

212
00:21:56,160 --> 00:22:00,120
why you kind of have to switch books multiple times so you can keep that

213
00:22:00,120 --> 00:22:04,480
focus level because I do notice that in times when I'm kind of in the zone or

214
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:11,000
when I'm interested in what I'm reading like especially when I find a part of

215
00:22:11,000 --> 00:22:16,640
the book when I'm really interested in that then I read it really quick and

216
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:21,320
I'm kind of like in the zone or like I'm extremely interested so I'm reading it

217
00:22:21,320 --> 00:22:28,240
way quicker so I guess this reading method kind of allows you to read read

218
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:32,920
in at that speed all the time or at least way longer than you would have

219
00:22:32,920 --> 00:22:38,640
other ones but there is one downside I don't know if I'll be able to retain

220
00:22:38,640 --> 00:22:44,320
that much information which is why I'm doing in this test trial on all brand

221
00:22:44,320 --> 00:22:53,720
new books that are not necessarily immediately impactful like I

222
00:22:53,720 --> 00:22:59,640
Transurfing is definitely immediately impactful but I can get away with not

223
00:22:59,640 --> 00:23:04,800
necessarily retaining that much let me explain when I was reading business

224
00:23:04,800 --> 00:23:10,600
books like expert secrets and 10x is easier than 2x like all these things I

225
00:23:10,600 --> 00:23:16,200
have to pretty much I have to retain all that information maybe not 10x is

226
00:23:16,200 --> 00:23:20,160
easier than 2x but definitely expert secrets and dot com secrets I basically

227
00:23:20,160 --> 00:23:26,760
have to retain those information I can't I can't really have a general feeling

228
00:23:26,760 --> 00:23:31,120
because it's not like spirituality but all these other books are like

229
00:23:31,120 --> 00:23:36,920
spirituality books and then worldview and stuff like that so that's why I want

230
00:23:36,920 --> 00:23:42,720
to practice or at least test it out on on brand new books that are kind of

231
00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:49,600
spiritual based and the books I'm really excited for because three are already

232
00:23:49,600 --> 00:23:54,280
here I already ordered the first two a while ago but the third one came today

233
00:23:54,280 --> 00:24:02,520
or yesterday actually and the three that I've already come is die wise come of age

234
00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:08,680
dancing after the music stops and then the four that are supposed to come

235
00:24:08,680 --> 00:24:13,560
within like the next 10 days maybe I don't remember when it's supposed to the

236
00:24:13,560 --> 00:24:18,680
one the last one is supposed to come is Toofty by Vadim's own Journey out of

237
00:24:18,680 --> 00:24:28,600
Bodies by Robert Monroe the Egypt code and then a scent on humanity I think

238
00:24:28,600 --> 00:24:34,240
it's going so those are all those those are the seven books that I'm gonna be

239
00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,600
reading for the first set and a few of them are pretty long like I'm pretty sure

240
00:24:38,600 --> 00:24:45,240
die wise and come of age are both like fairly long like 350 pages maybe but

241
00:24:45,240 --> 00:24:48,840
I'm really excited to get into this stuff because I've been looking forward to it

242
00:24:48,840 --> 00:24:54,560
for a month and but right now I'm just focusing on finishing 10x's easier than

243
00:24:54,560 --> 00:25:01,080
2x and then I'm gonna do create don't capture those those two books create

244
00:25:01,080 --> 00:25:08,800
don't captures fairly quick it's like 150 pages and it's a fairly small book

245
00:25:08,800 --> 00:25:14,640
but that's pretty much my plan right now and I want to I want to be honest with

246
00:25:14,640 --> 00:25:20,040
you guys I think that my sleep is dead well a hundred percent my sleep is

247
00:25:20,040 --> 00:25:26,560
definitely affecting me but I'm not sure how much information I'm retaining from

248
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:31,040
10x's easier than the 2x or if it's simply because it's a brand new book and

249
00:25:31,040 --> 00:25:35,600
that's just how it goes because for example when I'm reading reality

250
00:25:35,600 --> 00:25:39,360
trans surfing for the second time like when I was just podcasting and talking

251
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:44,640
about it I was able to talk about the principles for hours and I have a

252
00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:49,640
suspicion that it's because I have had already built a background knowledge on

253
00:25:49,640 --> 00:25:57,040
it because I read it already but I also am kind of like strengthening it by

254
00:25:57,040 --> 00:26:02,760
reading it a second time through so I'm able to have a lot more knowledge or a

255
00:26:02,760 --> 00:26:08,880
lot more understanding on it and I don't I'm not getting this with the 10x's

256
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:15,400
easier than 2x it's pretty it's fairly difficult for me to talk about it because

257
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:20,120
I I don't I'm not retaining much and maybe it's because when I was reading

258
00:26:20,120 --> 00:26:24,600
trans surfing for the second time through I was taking a lot of notes on a

259
00:26:24,600 --> 00:26:29,720
separate journal I pretty much filled up an entire journal just from my notes

260
00:26:29,720 --> 00:26:36,160
from the second time through so I wrote a lot I was writing way more than like I

261
00:26:36,160 --> 00:26:43,080
was I was being extremely excessive like I was going for a quantity over

262
00:26:43,080 --> 00:26:47,520
quality with that and so I think I was able to retain a lot more but with 10x's

263
00:26:47,520 --> 00:26:52,560
easier than 2x one it's my first time reading it and two I'm not writing stuff

264
00:26:52,560 --> 00:26:58,640
down so I'm not getting that like extra strengthening and solidifying because if

265
00:26:58,640 --> 00:27:02,240
you guys remember when I was telling you about the my reading strategy it's

266
00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:09,720
pretty much I okay so a normal passively reading which is what I'm doing

267
00:27:09,720 --> 00:27:20,280
right now for 10x's easier than 2x passive reading I pretty much I okay so

268
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:26,840
passive reading I pretty much just it passes through my mind once so it goes

269
00:27:26,840 --> 00:27:30,480
straight through my mind like just once because I'm reading the words I go down

270
00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:38,400
the page read the words and it's all going down through once but my my reading

271
00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:42,240
method the study method that I was doing for trans surfing it was passing

272
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:47,880
through my mind so many more times so I was reading it once that's one time and

273
00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:54,840
then I would write it down that's another time and then I would what did I do

274
00:27:54,840 --> 00:28:02,600
next I talked about it on the podcast so that's another time and then I but it's

275
00:28:02,600 --> 00:28:09,680
multiple different versions so just reading it is just a mind piece it's

276
00:28:09,680 --> 00:28:14,560
just kind of like thinking it but then writing it is like using your hand and

277
00:28:14,560 --> 00:28:18,960
it uses a different like component of the mind and then speaking it and teaching

278
00:28:18,960 --> 00:28:23,480
it is a brand new part it's the speaking part and it's also like you have to

279
00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,400
understand a lot more to be able to explain it so you have to think about it

280
00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:33,160
more in depth to be able to explain it simply or easily and then after that I

281
00:28:33,160 --> 00:28:38,200
would basically write a summary at nighttime I would write a summary of

282
00:28:38,200 --> 00:28:42,280
what I learned that day so that's another piece it's like a writing piece but

283
00:28:42,280 --> 00:28:47,520
it's also kind of recall it's recall so it's it's another part which I guess

284
00:28:47,520 --> 00:28:54,120
recall is also in teaching on the podcast but then in the morning I would

285
00:28:54,120 --> 00:29:04,000
reread that summary so that's five and then after a while of building up okay

286
00:29:04,000 --> 00:29:08,320
so oh wait wait so let me just say this and then the next day I would talk to my

287
00:29:08,320 --> 00:29:15,080
friend about it so that's six so I teach him again and then after a while I

288
00:29:15,080 --> 00:29:21,800
would combine all of my notes so I would read all my notes and then

289
00:29:21,800 --> 00:29:29,120
that's seven reread them all and then I would star all of the important ones and

290
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:34,680
then once I reread them all and start all the important ones I would rewrite

291
00:29:34,680 --> 00:29:40,840
them on a brand new page so I would go through and rewrite like ten pages

292
00:29:40,840 --> 00:29:49,160
sometimes maybe 12 pages other times I think one time I was at like 16 pages I

293
00:29:49,160 --> 00:29:56,520
rewrite like pretty much 16 pages of work so that's eight I think or nine I

294
00:29:56,520 --> 00:30:04,120
don't know I lost count already so let's just say eight and then I would record

295
00:30:04,120 --> 00:30:10,480
another episode on based on those notes like the consolidated precise notes and

296
00:30:10,480 --> 00:30:21,040
that is ten ten ten the ten state I'm sorry it's I was listening to the gateway

297
00:30:21,040 --> 00:30:26,440
I've been using the gateway process and he always says once you reach like focus

298
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:35,160
ten he's like ten ten ten so I just wanted to make that connection but

299
00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:40,000
pretty much the study method it was strengthening solidifying ten times like

300
00:30:40,000 --> 00:30:45,480
I was it was passing through my mind at least ten times like even especially the

301
00:30:45,480 --> 00:30:49,760
most important part like the most important notes were passing through my

302
00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:57,400
mind ten times versus one time so it makes sense that like everything is

303
00:30:57,400 --> 00:31:03,320
stacking up that I'm not able to talk about the 10x is using the 2x because

304
00:31:03,320 --> 00:31:08,240
one I'm not like it's my first time I don't have any background knowledge on

305
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:13,240
it two I'm just passively learning it because there's a reason why school is

306
00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:18,480
not that good at teaching because passive like schools all about passive

307
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:22,120
learning like the teacher just says things to you and that most of the time

308
00:31:22,120 --> 00:31:27,160
you don't really even hear it and if you do hear it it's hard to keep it in

309
00:31:27,160 --> 00:31:31,640
unless you write it down repeat it so that's like it's kind of what I'm

310
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:37,280
thinking right now but I want to talk about this one thing that kind of came

311
00:31:37,280 --> 00:31:46,400
up so my friend is getting into learning a language right now and it's because

312
00:31:46,400 --> 00:31:50,680
we're both planning on moving out soon and so he's learning the language of

313
00:31:50,680 --> 00:31:58,800
the country that he's moving out to and pretty much right now he's he bought he

314
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:04,320
was on DuLingo DuLingo yesterday learning the language and then I like told

315
00:32:04,320 --> 00:32:10,440
him because in ultra learning pretty much duly according to the book ultra

316
00:32:10,440 --> 00:32:19,720
learning and I agree DuLingo is very bad for learning a language and it's

317
00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:26,680
because it's kind of like gives you the answers and it's not really too realistic

318
00:32:26,680 --> 00:32:34,600
it's not too realistic and because think about it when you're trying to learn okay

319
00:32:34,600 --> 00:32:39,200
so right now all the all the things I'm saying to you right now are from I'm

320
00:32:39,200 --> 00:32:46,640
pulling kind of phrases from like a bank or a database in my mind and I'm using

321
00:32:46,640 --> 00:32:54,040
commonly used phrases so that's pretty much how you learn a language or at

322
00:32:54,040 --> 00:32:59,120
least get to speaking level like you're able to fluently get have a normal

323
00:32:59,120 --> 00:33:03,520
conversation that's how you get it you basically rep out all the common phrases

324
00:33:03,520 --> 00:33:07,000
like hello nice to meet you hello nice to meet you and you constantly rep that

325
00:33:07,000 --> 00:33:13,920
out but the thing with DuLingo is it kind of just it gives you a lot of it

326
00:33:13,920 --> 00:33:19,960
gives you it's basically a multiple choice and like kind of the John or the

327
00:33:19,960 --> 00:33:27,240
what's the word the way it's structured is it's not really structured very well

328
00:33:27,240 --> 00:33:34,640
for what it's not really structured optimally for learning language because

329
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:42,320
it's not necessarily realistic because it's kind of multiple choice or you're

330
00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:49,280
kind of like hearing a phrase and you write it down I don't know I don't remember

331
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:54,320
exactly what ultra learning said about DuLingo all I remember is that don't do

332
00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:58,680
it's a waste of time and I actually have an experience of this in middle school

333
00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:05,880
so for context I've been in I've been in Spanish I've been taking Spanish classes

334
00:34:05,880 --> 00:34:14,560
since first grade I believe so from first grade and until junior year so junior I

335
00:34:14,560 --> 00:34:20,160
didn't take a Spanish in junior year so I took from first grade all the way

336
00:34:20,160 --> 00:34:26,160
through sophomore year sophomore year was my last year of Spanish so that's five

337
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:33,200
eight that's ten years of learning in Spanish ten years okay so do you think

338
00:34:33,200 --> 00:34:36,960
that if you spent ten years learning a language you think you'd be able to learn

339
00:34:36,960 --> 00:34:42,160
it no if you did it through the American education system you would not be able

340
00:34:42,160 --> 00:34:47,560
to learn a language in ten years not even even if I stayed and still did a

341
00:34:47,560 --> 00:34:55,400
language in junior year and senior year I like that would be like 12 years I still

342
00:34:55,400 --> 00:35:01,680
would not be able to learn a language now let me explain it's all passive

343
00:35:01,680 --> 00:35:06,440
learning like I said before passive learning but it's also like you have to

344
00:35:06,440 --> 00:35:12,300
be fully immersed in the language so pretty much the best way and Timothy

345
00:35:12,300 --> 00:35:15,560
Ferris talked about this in the four-hour work week as well but pretty much

346
00:35:15,560 --> 00:35:24,160
the best way to learn a language is by fully immersing yourself in that language

347
00:35:24,160 --> 00:35:29,600
and only speak that language which is why after I read ultra learning I realized

348
00:35:29,600 --> 00:35:35,800
oh I have to get rich first or oh I have to move out to this country first and

349
00:35:35,800 --> 00:35:44,240
then I'll be able to actually I'll be able to actually get enough like I'll be

350
00:35:44,240 --> 00:35:50,000
able to actually immerse myself that's what I'm trying to say and so pretty much

351
00:35:50,000 --> 00:35:55,160
out my plan was to build my business and then move out to those countries and

352
00:35:55,160 --> 00:35:59,520
then move there for like six months at a time or three months at a time and then

353
00:35:59,520 --> 00:36:03,520
learn the language and learn like another skill because that's what Timothy

354
00:36:03,520 --> 00:36:08,960
Tim Ferriss does he basically learns two skills at once so he learns like a

355
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:13,800
mental skill and then a physical skill so for example I don't remember what

356
00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:19,160
country he learned how to dance in but he became like a world-class dancer because

357
00:36:19,160 --> 00:36:22,720
he was learning how to dance and then he was also learning that native language

358
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:34,080
so let's just say I want to go to Spain and or I want to go to where's a good

359
00:36:34,080 --> 00:36:38,880
place I don't even I can't really think of anything right now but I want to go

360
00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:44,480
alright so right now my goal is to go to Hawaii so let's imagine I think that

361
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:53,680
most people in Hawaii speak English but I think that I think that there's a lot

362
00:36:53,680 --> 00:37:01,040
of native languages there so let's just say for example I moved to Hawaii learn

363
00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,840
how to surf that's the physical skill and then I learned the native language or

364
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:10,320
I learned one of the native languages so that's that's kind of like what he does

365
00:37:10,320 --> 00:37:14,640
and that's what I'm planning on doing as well because it's a lot more efficient

366
00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:19,200
you can learn you can learn an entire language or at least get fluent in an

367
00:37:19,200 --> 00:37:24,520
entire language in three months if you like fully immerse yourself and don't

368
00:37:24,520 --> 00:37:29,360
speak English at all like go to that country go to Spain for three months

369
00:37:29,360 --> 00:37:33,800
don't speak English at all and just go out every day and practice wrap it out

370
00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:38,800
wrap it out and then that's pretty much and that's why earlier in this part

371
00:37:38,800 --> 00:37:42,720
earlier in this episode I said that I'm gonna be read one of the books I'm

372
00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:46,920
gonna be rereading that's in my like already read books or books that I'm

373
00:37:46,920 --> 00:37:50,720
not gonna read for quite some time one of the books I'm gonna be rereading

374
00:37:50,720 --> 00:37:56,920
before I leave is ultra learning just so I can like fresh get a refresher of

375
00:37:56,920 --> 00:38:02,920
how to do it and then I'll be actually applying it this time but that's that's

376
00:38:02,920 --> 00:38:08,520
like why I'm thinking I told my friend don't do Duolingo or I warned him about

377
00:38:08,520 --> 00:38:12,600
it and then he came back to me the next day and like today he said yeah you're

378
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:17,040
right about Duolingo but then he went on and bought a different he actually bought

379
00:38:17,040 --> 00:38:23,640
a year's membership of this one I don't remember what this software was called

380
00:38:23,640 --> 00:38:28,400
but he bought a year's membership to this one language learning website which I

381
00:38:28,400 --> 00:38:33,280
still don't think is good because it's basically Duolingo but a different name

382
00:38:33,280 --> 00:38:39,360
is what I saw but I'm just gonna let him go his pack and that's what I said

383
00:38:39,360 --> 00:38:42,840
don't let me steer you off course if this is what you want to do this is what

384
00:38:42,840 --> 00:38:49,720
you got to do and that's that's why I I just let him do his thing and I'll just

385
00:38:49,720 --> 00:38:55,520
focus on my own thing because right now would be a huge waste of time for me to

386
00:38:55,520 --> 00:39:00,440
learn like Spanish because I have I do have a desire to learn Spanish but I'm

387
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:05,040
not focusing on it right now it would be a huge waste of time for me if I just

388
00:39:05,040 --> 00:39:08,960
spent a lot of time and effort and energy trying to learn Spanish right now

389
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:14,000
because right now I'm trying to learn spirituality and business or at least

390
00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:18,160
just spirituality because the business side I already have a plan on how to move

391
00:39:18,160 --> 00:39:22,680
forward on my business I just have to kind of wait I really hate saying that

392
00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:28,360
because I guess me saying it out loud I'm not really doing enough I guess

393
00:39:28,360 --> 00:39:32,480
because I keep on saying I got to wait for something to happen or I got to wait

394
00:39:32,480 --> 00:39:40,080
until I reach 100 episodes I don't know I don't like saying that because it's

395
00:39:40,080 --> 00:39:45,480
makes me feel like I'm not doing enough but I know that I'm on the right track

396
00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:50,560
just keep on doing what I'm doing and I'm guaranteed success but that's why

397
00:39:50,560 --> 00:39:54,200
right now I'm trying to learn spirituality so I can so I can teach

398
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:58,720
and like understand it for myself because I want to I want to learn all

399
00:39:58,720 --> 00:40:03,640
this stuff and then I also want I don't even know if it's all spirituality I

400
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:07,640
think there's a lot of books on there about like how we're all gonna die soon

401
00:40:07,640 --> 00:40:14,520
there's a like the ultimate reading list is huge genre like though there's so many

402
00:40:14,520 --> 00:40:20,520
different genres and I'm pretty sure unscripted is on there as well so but

403
00:40:20,520 --> 00:40:26,480
it's further down the line like 170 or something like that that's why it would

404
00:40:26,480 --> 00:40:30,840
be a huge waste of time for me to spend a lot of time and energy learning a

405
00:40:30,840 --> 00:40:38,760
language especially if I am doing an inefficient method it's kind of just

406
00:40:38,760 --> 00:40:45,040
like dopamine it's just it's just giving me gratification making me feel like I'm

407
00:40:45,040 --> 00:40:50,320
doing something like it's just making me feel productive I guess is what I'm

408
00:40:50,320 --> 00:40:56,440
trying to say and so that's why my plan is once I'm actually planning on moving

409
00:40:56,440 --> 00:40:59,360
out like once I'm actually planning on going to this country that I'm gonna

410
00:40:59,360 --> 00:41:03,160
learn language which I don't even know if I'll do that right away but once I'm

411
00:41:03,160 --> 00:41:09,120
planning on going to learn language the week prior I will I I actually told my

412
00:41:09,120 --> 00:41:13,400
friend this like this is the method that I would do but I didn't tell my friend

413
00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:21,200
like what my plan is completely so my my plan is to once I'm ready to move out

414
00:41:21,200 --> 00:41:26,560
and one week before I leave I'm literally just gonna every single day

415
00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:33,440
study I'm gonna just study language and I'm literally just gonna compile all of

416
00:41:33,440 --> 00:41:41,520
the common phrases so oh la como estás bueno start this like good morning

417
00:41:41,520 --> 00:41:46,440
hello how are you all of the common phrases and then all the common phrases

418
00:41:46,440 --> 00:41:51,240
for all the common words and phrases and then I'm just gonna wrap them out

419
00:41:51,240 --> 00:41:56,280
literally just get a basic understanding for conversation and I'm gonna

420
00:41:56,280 --> 00:42:02,320
wrap them out through many different means so first I'm gonna first of all

421
00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:07,960
write all of the things down on a single piece of paper and I'm gonna just write

422
00:42:07,960 --> 00:42:12,840
down all the common but I'm not gonna do like all of them I'm just gonna do the

423
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:21,720
main common conversation sentences like phrases and then I'm gonna what the way

424
00:42:21,720 --> 00:42:27,520
I do it is I would just get all of those papers and then I'd write them all in

425
00:42:27,520 --> 00:42:31,600
Spanish and then write them all in English on another piece in the same

426
00:42:31,600 --> 00:42:35,360
order and then I would look at the English and then rewrite it in Spanish

427
00:42:35,360 --> 00:42:42,200
and then I would after that I would do that a few times like wrap that out get

428
00:42:42,200 --> 00:42:46,360
all those and then get that in memory but then I'm gonna also practice my

429
00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:50,760
pronunciation and actual conversation so I literally just look in the mirror and

430
00:42:50,760 --> 00:42:56,320
or look at the camera like record and literally just have a conversation with

431
00:42:56,320 --> 00:43:04,160
myself be like oh la como estás ah bien y2 and then like oh I am sorry bien like

432
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:10,640
all like I'd say hello how are you I'm good and you like and then just go just

433
00:43:10,640 --> 00:43:14,320
have a conversation with yourself and then practice those common phrases and

434
00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:20,480
literally just do that for hours like practice but and then I would also learn

435
00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:24,720
how to read it too I'd read it in Spanish so that's why I had two separate

436
00:43:24,720 --> 00:43:29,520
things one in English and one in Spanish so then I would have it in Spanish

437
00:43:29,520 --> 00:43:34,240
another another thing that I would do is look at the Spanish list the list of all

438
00:43:34,240 --> 00:43:39,520
the Spanish ones and then rewrite it in English and then I wouldn't just do those

439
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:46,800
I would also read it in I would read it in English and then say it in Spanish or

440
00:43:46,800 --> 00:43:52,280
read it in Spanish in the same in English and like all of these many

441
00:43:52,280 --> 00:43:56,880
different forms just for the one week I would just get in a deep dive of learning

442
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:01,560
all of the basic phrases just so I can have like a baseline even though the

443
00:44:01,560 --> 00:44:05,000
baseline is realistic it's like realistically it's probably not gonna be

444
00:44:05,000 --> 00:44:12,360
that high just a baseline it will allow me to go to the country and by the way

445
00:44:12,360 --> 00:44:18,680
before I move out the country I'm going to be getting a Spanish to English

446
00:44:18,680 --> 00:44:23,120
dictionary or English to whatever language I choose dictionary it's most

447
00:44:23,120 --> 00:44:28,280
likely gonna be Spanish because I already have a baseline of Spanish and so I

448
00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:32,280
want to learn Spanish because I spent 10 years of my life trying to learn Spanish

449
00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:37,760
and I was unsuccessful and I want to talk about how I try to use Duolingo for a

450
00:44:37,760 --> 00:44:42,000
long time to learn Spanish as well but I would get a Spanish to English dictionary

451
00:44:42,000 --> 00:44:49,120
of all of the words or I would get all of the words in a dictionary and then I

452
00:44:49,120 --> 00:44:54,280
would also get a common phrases dictionary of Spanish English and then I

453
00:44:54,280 --> 00:44:59,680
would bring around the common phrases and I would also bring around I'm pretty

454
00:44:59,680 --> 00:45:09,800
sure they sell translator I don't know if that would be a good idea because I

455
00:45:09,800 --> 00:45:14,600
would be cheating but yeah so I would bring around the dictionary and then I

456
00:45:14,600 --> 00:45:21,400
would also bring around a translator just so I can know that I wouldn't I would

457
00:45:21,400 --> 00:45:24,560
only bring around the translator for emergencies just in case I'm in real

458
00:45:24,560 --> 00:45:29,520
trouble or something like that but then I would just walk around once I get there

459
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:34,160
I just walk around and then practice my common phrases and then just keep on

460
00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:37,960
trying to get into deeper and deeper conversations and that would be my day

461
00:45:37,960 --> 00:45:44,440
but pretty much my routine would look like at let's just say Spain is where I

462
00:45:44,440 --> 00:45:51,080
go my routine at Spain is I wake up spend like an hour to two hours studying new

463
00:45:51,080 --> 00:45:57,200
vocabulary and then I would go around or and then I would practice my physical

464
00:45:57,200 --> 00:46:05,920
skill so whatever physical skill I choose to learn whether it be I don't even

465
00:46:05,920 --> 00:46:14,160
know Tim Ferriss did dancing so it can literally be anything physical so

466
00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:21,320
physical skill that I learn and then I go to and then I go just literally just

467
00:46:21,320 --> 00:46:25,640
walk around town and start conversations with people and I would especially

468
00:46:25,640 --> 00:46:30,240
focus on those new vocab words that I learned so let's say I learned 20 or a

469
00:46:30,240 --> 00:46:35,200
hundred new vocab words and then I make it my go day's goal to get into a

470
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,960
conversation with people and use all of those words that would literally be my

471
00:46:39,960 --> 00:46:44,400
routine now I haven't read ultra learning in a while so I don't know like what the

472
00:46:44,400 --> 00:46:49,240
most optimal I definitely think that my plan will change once I reread it but

473
00:46:49,240 --> 00:46:53,440
that's pretty much what I'm thinking but like I was saying I'm not thinking about

474
00:46:53,440 --> 00:46:56,840
any of this stuff right now I just wanted to tell that just because it's on

475
00:46:56,840 --> 00:47:01,320
the top of my head but I want to discard every single thing that I said

476
00:47:01,320 --> 00:47:05,080
about learning a new language because right now I'm just focusing on my

477
00:47:05,080 --> 00:47:09,400
current task focusing on growing my podcast focusing on building a business

478
00:47:09,400 --> 00:47:14,040
focusing on moving out focusing on building my revenue like just providing

479
00:47:14,040 --> 00:47:18,880
value that is literally all that I'm focused on right now do not worry about

480
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:27,280
language but as I said I wanted to tell you why Duolingo sucks or Duolingo is fun

481
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:31,240
but it's not good for learning the actual language if you're serious about

482
00:47:31,240 --> 00:47:35,400
learning language do not use Duolingo if you're serious about it fully immerse

483
00:47:35,400 --> 00:47:43,440
yourself by going into that country or going somewhere like that but pretty much

484
00:47:44,800 --> 00:47:51,320
in like I said I spent 10 years of my life learning taking Spanish classes in

485
00:47:51,320 --> 00:47:59,080
the public education system in America and I in middle school I was learning

486
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:05,800
all about or no in middle school I spent a long a long time every day on Duolingo

487
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:10,280
maybe 30 minutes a day maybe an hour a day I was serious about Duolingo I

488
00:48:10,280 --> 00:48:16,280
really wanted to learn Spanish and I'll be honest I learned a lot like I got so

489
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:21,440
far ahead of everyone else but not in my current classes because what I was

490
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:28,320
studying was like I was studying on Duolingo different phrases or words that

491
00:48:28,320 --> 00:48:34,200
I was studying in my classes so I wasn't ever really able to use it during class

492
00:48:34,200 --> 00:48:42,000
maybe in like eighth grade or freshman year but I spent a long time on Duolingo

493
00:48:42,000 --> 00:48:49,280
like I had a really long streak and I practiced like every day and I definitely

494
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:54,600
got better but I was not it was not good enough and if I think that if I

495
00:48:54,600 --> 00:48:58,560
invested that same amount of time doing this method that I just told you guys

496
00:48:58,560 --> 00:49:02,760
about I would have had way more success doing the method that I just told you

497
00:49:02,760 --> 00:49:08,720
guys about but that's pretty much how I use Duolingo and it didn't really help

498
00:49:08,720 --> 00:49:15,560
so let me get some water

499
00:49:15,560 --> 00:49:32,840
all right I want to talk about my face cam so yesterday I got my face cam and I

500
00:49:32,840 --> 00:49:41,320
on my podcastle.ai you there's a video recording like feature like where you

501
00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:45,200
can actually record your video on it and then you can edit like the sound

502
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:49,040
quality and all that stuff from there because that's what I used to edit my

503
00:49:49,040 --> 00:49:55,680
videos or not my videos my my podcast I used to edit it and I would also before

504
00:49:55,680 --> 00:50:03,080
I had my face cam I would just record straight on that and it was fine I would

505
00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:09,040
be able to record one hour every single day for the entire month but the issue

506
00:50:09,040 --> 00:50:16,680
is they offer they do offer a video recording service but I only have like

507
00:50:16,680 --> 00:50:20,880
eight hours like they only give me eight hours on my current membership plan and

508
00:50:20,880 --> 00:50:26,280
even if I upgraded to like the maximum I'm pretty sure it wouldn't like fit my

509
00:50:26,280 --> 00:50:32,040
needs which I need at least like I think I need like however many days in the

510
00:50:32,040 --> 00:50:39,840
month there are so it's probably like 30 to around 30 to 31 hours every month

511
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:44,440
that's let's just say 31 hours every month because that's the longest and then

512
00:50:44,440 --> 00:50:53,480
I would probably want just in case like backup 30 33 I want at least just to be

513
00:50:53,480 --> 00:51:01,840
safe I want 35 hours of video recording but on my current subscription plan for

514
00:51:01,840 --> 00:51:07,360
podcast so I only have eight hours so I recorded on I recorded yesterday on

515
00:51:07,360 --> 00:51:12,200
podcast so because I have eight hours free so now I'm at seven hours left for

516
00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:16,600
the month and I realized that this is not gonna work for me so I need to find

517
00:51:16,600 --> 00:51:21,320
like a free software that has infinite recording like unlimited recording and

518
00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:28,840
so I was looking around the web today and I found OBS which I have heard of OBS

519
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:34,480
before when I used to watch YouTube and streamers they talk about OBS and they

520
00:51:34,480 --> 00:51:40,520
use OBS so I downloaded OBS but I'm not sure if it has like the same editing

521
00:51:40,520 --> 00:51:45,560
features so I don't know what it's gonna look like when I actually go through and

522
00:51:45,560 --> 00:51:52,280
like edit the audio I don't know if because here's where I'm at I have my

523
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:59,640
video and then I also want I post my video onto YouTube so I schedule my video

524
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:08,720
the video style of the podcast on YouTube but then I post my the audio on to

525
00:52:08,720 --> 00:52:17,200
my podcast like RSS I post it on to like Apple Spotify Amazon like all these

526
00:52:17,200 --> 00:52:24,160
different podcast directories but I use RSS.com to just spread it all over but

527
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:31,600
the issue is if I'm unable to edit like the audio of my video like I know I'll

528
00:52:31,600 --> 00:52:36,800
be able to convert my video into audio using podcastle but I'm not sure if I'll

529
00:52:36,800 --> 00:52:42,760
be able to actually edit the audio on this video if that makes sense because

530
00:52:42,760 --> 00:52:47,880
right now my the audio like all the noise that I'm producing right now is

531
00:52:47,880 --> 00:52:55,520
unedited but I've been doing like magic dust background noise remover audio

532
00:52:55,520 --> 00:53:00,360
leveling like all these different edits that I do automatically on podcastle I

533
00:53:00,360 --> 00:53:08,240
do for my show but I won't I'm not sure if I'll be able to do it for the video so

534
00:53:08,240 --> 00:53:12,040
that's kind of where I'm at right now but I would prefer to have an actual

535
00:53:12,040 --> 00:53:18,640
video and not edited audio because plus I'll be able to schedule so I don't know

536
00:53:18,640 --> 00:53:24,520
if any of that made sense but I'm kind of rambling at this point because I'm

537
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:31,440
just honestly sleep is a hundred percent important so I'm definitely gonna fix my

538
00:53:31,440 --> 00:53:35,120
sleep and it's actually four o'clock usually when I've done recordings like

539
00:53:35,120 --> 00:53:41,800
around 4 30 4 45 and I like when my sleep was good when it was optimal and I was

540
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:45,640
able to meditate without falling asleep when it was optimal I was getting a bed

541
00:53:45,640 --> 00:53:52,280
at like I was starting my morning routine around like 4 40 to 5 o'clock but

542
00:53:52,280 --> 00:54:00,040
lately I've been starting out like 5 45 so like an hour late but I like kind of

543
00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:05,600
speed through my night did I say morning routine I mean nighttime routine but

544
00:54:05,600 --> 00:54:11,560
that's like important so I'm gonna be able to do that today I'm gonna set a

545
00:54:11,560 --> 00:54:20,480
new rule I have to leave my basement by 4 45 I have to be done by 4 45 and if I'm

546
00:54:20,480 --> 00:54:28,720
unable to edit then I have to edit the next day which could prove fatal but I

547
00:54:28,720 --> 00:54:35,080
don't know it's kind of whatever there's okay I want to talk about one thing

548
00:54:35,080 --> 00:54:41,240
that's been on my mind about I read in the 10x's easier than 2x he gave the

549
00:54:41,240 --> 00:54:49,720
story about Jimmy Donaldson Mr. Beast so Mr. Beast said that he was focusing

550
00:54:49,720 --> 00:54:57,040
extremely heavily on quality over quantity so he would focus all of his

551
00:54:57,040 --> 00:55:01,880
effort on just making the highest quality videos highest quality YouTube videos

552
00:55:01,880 --> 00:55:06,200
and that's how you gain success that's how you get 10x like he didn't go for

553
00:55:06,200 --> 00:55:10,920
quantity but right now I'm going for quantity but I'm also trying to improve

554
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:19,080
quality by just sheer practice sheer reps because you'll see that like my first

555
00:55:19,080 --> 00:55:24,240
episode was terrible now this episode is way better than my first episode but the

556
00:55:24,240 --> 00:55:32,720
issue is I don't have time to add quality to my podcast because I'm doing one

557
00:55:32,720 --> 00:55:39,800
hour every day and so I'm also a student and I also go to the gym so with all of

558
00:55:39,800 --> 00:55:47,800
that combined I don't have much time and I have a half day at school so I'm a

559
00:55:47,800 --> 00:55:56,440
part-time student so it's like I'm I don't know if I should drop down and I

560
00:55:56,440 --> 00:56:01,640
like post less which is what my friend actually did he's like posting maybe once

561
00:56:01,640 --> 00:56:11,720
or twice a week because his podcast he does ADHD stuff so he is focusing on

562
00:56:11,720 --> 00:56:19,720
quality which I want to see where his ends up because I set myself the target

563
00:56:19,720 --> 00:56:25,280
of having 365 episodes in one year so posting every single day for a year and

564
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:30,960
that's kind of and that's my goal I still intend on doing that so I still want

565
00:56:30,960 --> 00:56:35,880
to figure out how to improve the quality of my episodes whether it's outsourcing

566
00:56:35,880 --> 00:56:41,200
some things like the editing process outsourcing I don't know what else I would

567
00:56:41,200 --> 00:56:44,120
outsource but the editing process is a big thing

568
00:56:44,120 --> 00:56:49,480
outsource that and I'll be able to just focus on recording because I remember

569
00:56:49,480 --> 00:56:56,560
watching a Hamza video and he was saying figure out what you want to do so let's

570
00:56:56,560 --> 00:57:03,240
say you want to become a youtuber then you figure out the number one thing that

571
00:57:03,240 --> 00:57:09,200
figure out the one thing that will get you there figure out the number one

572
00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:14,360
skill that you need to focus on to become a great youtuber or to achieve that

573
00:57:14,360 --> 00:57:21,040
goal so for a youtuber obviously it's recording so he said focus on like 80%

574
00:57:21,040 --> 00:57:26,800
of your time on that one thing so focus 80% of your time just recording don't

575
00:57:26,800 --> 00:57:32,960
worry about editing don't worry about anything else and then he said focus 20%

576
00:57:32,960 --> 00:57:38,840
of your time learning how to do that one skill better so like reading books about

577
00:57:38,840 --> 00:57:45,480
it so that's that's kind of what I'm thinking right now I'm focusing not 80%

578
00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:50,960
of my time actually I guess it is 80% of my time because I pretty much have

579
00:57:50,960 --> 00:57:55,760
like one hour to work every day or two hours or an hour and a half every single

580
00:57:55,760 --> 00:58:01,520
day to work because once I get home from the gym I go downstairs record edit and

581
00:58:01,520 --> 00:58:06,640
then I get I go to bed like that's pretty much my day I go to school go to

582
00:58:06,640 --> 00:58:15,480
the gym come home record edit go to bed I study in the morning too but I guess I

583
00:58:15,480 --> 00:58:20,080
am we're spending 80% of the time available but definitely not 80% of my

584
00:58:20,080 --> 00:58:24,640
time and that's gonna be tough to spend 80% of my time because I'm in school so

585
00:58:24,640 --> 00:58:31,720
whether I drop out or whether I just wait two months to graduate then once I

586
00:58:31,720 --> 00:58:36,640
like I'm focusing a lot of my the majority of my time surely on recording

587
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:40,160
videos so I'm getting better so that's kind of what I'm thinking I think that

588
00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:46,280
with practice it's reps but then they also said in 10x is easier than 2x the

589
00:58:46,280 --> 00:58:51,920
10,000 rule like 10,000 hours and you're an expert that's false like that's not

590
00:58:51,920 --> 00:58:58,760
real because you he said that you can spend 10,000 hours in your 80% in your

591
00:58:58,760 --> 00:59:03,240
comfort zone and still not become an expert but if you spend like a thousand

592
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:10,800
hours in your 20% in like that 10x process zone the 10x zone then you'll

593
00:59:10,800 --> 00:59:15,400
actually become an expert like maybe not a hundred maybe not a thousand maybe

594
00:59:15,400 --> 00:59:19,840
two thousand maybe five hundred I don't know that number but pretty much the

595
00:59:19,840 --> 00:59:24,840
quality okay here's what I'm thinking the quality of time you spend the quality

596
00:59:24,840 --> 00:59:31,000
of time you invest matters because if you if the quality of your time you're

597
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:36,280
spending on just simple reps but those reps are in your 80% you'd like you're

00:59:36,280 --> 00:59:41,400
trying to maintain what you've been doing which I guess I just became

599
00:59:41,400 --> 00:59:46,440
conscious I think that I'm doing that I'm not trying to I'm not focusing on

00:59:46,440 --> 00:59:52,200
improving my current show like I'm not trying like when I first started I was

figuring out many different things to get better and better but I kind of like

put a halt to that and now I'm in my 80% so now I got to figure out what I can do
