1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,960
What are we doing? What are we doing with our lives? I've been going to school my

2
00:00:08,960 --> 00:00:18,320
whole life. Why do I go to school? I'm not sure. People say so I can get a job. Why

3
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:25,000
do I need to get a job? Is that really what I came here for? Like all of every

4
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:34,840
single person in humanity before all the hunter-gatherers, they didn't have jobs,

5
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:41,520
they didn't have to work in nine to five. All they had to do was survive. Like they

6
00:00:41,520 --> 00:00:47,760
didn't have a school system. They say the school system is for our own good but

7
00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:56,480
it's not. I really believe, I'm starting to believe a lot more lately, that we were

8
00:00:56,480 --> 00:01:03,560
born into this world with full of potential. We were so much more powerful.

9
00:01:03,560 --> 00:01:14,160
Like we came into this world full power and then the school system and society

10
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:19,920
starts to whittle away at our power and slowly but surely we eventually are left

11
00:01:19,920 --> 00:01:28,880
with nothing. And so it's our job now to discover that power back. That's why I'm

12
00:01:28,880 --> 00:01:33,360
going so deep into spirituality because I'm really starting to believe that

13
00:01:33,360 --> 00:01:40,880
there's so much more. Like there's so much more to life. We are so much more.

14
00:01:40,880 --> 00:01:47,360
People, like my whole life I've been led to believe that all I'm good for is to

15
00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:52,360
work a nine to five job. Like that's all I've achieved in life. Yet I see human

16
00:01:52,360 --> 00:01:58,220
beings all around me achieving great results. Even the people we study in the

17
00:01:58,220 --> 00:02:07,080
history books achieving great results. I remember in middle school studying about

18
00:02:07,080 --> 00:02:17,120
John D. Rockefeller. Like the richest man ever. A rich man in America. We

19
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:22,440
studied him and then it was, I don't really remember like the perspective we

20
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:28,040
took but I just remember him. And he definitely knew his power because you

21
00:02:28,040 --> 00:02:35,200
don't just accidentally become the richest man in the world. And he's a human

22
00:02:35,200 --> 00:02:45,960
just like I am. He was able to become the richest man on the planet. He was able

23
00:02:45,960 --> 00:02:50,400
to achieve greatness. All these people around us are able to achieve

24
00:02:50,400 --> 00:02:55,560
greatness. All of these, like there's a lot of podcasters that I used to listen

25
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:04,200
to. They have achieved greatness. They are very successful people. And

26
00:03:04,200 --> 00:03:14,360
they're humans just like I am. And it just makes me think why do I feel like I

27
00:03:14,360 --> 00:03:20,760
can achieve greatness? Well it's because of the school system. I really, all my

28
00:03:20,760 --> 00:03:27,120
life I've been against like school. I never really found the purpose of it. But I

29
00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:32,000
never really realized that it was actually bad for me and actually managing

30
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:40,880
to destroy me. And it destroyed me, it did. And now I'm fighting back and

31
00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:50,640
regaining my humanity. And I'm regaining all of my divine essence. I'm rediscovering

32
00:03:50,640 --> 00:03:57,160
it all. That's why I'm going so deep into spirituality. I am reading seven

33
00:03:57,160 --> 00:04:04,840
books right now. And one of them called Dancing After The Music Stops is in the

34
00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:10,240
introduction of the book. He is talking a lot about, he's referring back to the

35
00:04:10,240 --> 00:04:18,000
school system and how it has, it's like the greatest, it's a terrible sin. And the

36
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:27,960
school system basically is like a factory and it produces machines or it

37
00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:37,560
produces just components. And today at school we actually had drills. So we had

38
00:04:37,560 --> 00:04:47,960
to do a fire drill, a hard lockdown drill, a shelter-in-place drill. And during

39
00:04:47,960 --> 00:05:00,200
the fire drill I was just thinking, let's get, let's get led, let's get, what did I

40
00:05:00,200 --> 00:05:06,320
say? I said something right when the fire alarm went off and I

41
00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:10,280
noticed that everyone was going out through the same exact doors. And I was

42
00:05:10,280 --> 00:05:17,440
like, let's get led by sheep, led like sheep. Or let's all get herded by, herded

43
00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:23,440
like sheep. And then when I was going back inside the building I was saying,

44
00:05:23,440 --> 00:05:29,080
this is the most sophisticated factory. Like this is the most sophisticated

45
00:05:29,080 --> 00:05:35,320
factory on the planet, the American school system. It's a factory. It literally

46
00:05:35,320 --> 00:05:46,560
produces cogs in a machine, produces components of people. Its input is bright

47
00:05:46,560 --> 00:05:52,480
children. And then the output is so whittled down you can't even recognize

48
00:05:52,480 --> 00:06:07,200
them. I really, I have 70 days left until I'm done with school. 70 days. And there's

49
00:06:07,200 --> 00:06:10,560
a part of me where I'm thinking maybe I should just drop out right now. But then

50
00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:19,560
there's another part of me thinking that I desire the safety of, I might as well

51
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:25,960
just finish it because that's all my parents want for me to do. And that's, and

52
00:06:25,960 --> 00:06:31,840
I want to continue working on this podcast and I fear that I may not have

53
00:06:31,840 --> 00:06:36,000
the opportunity to do all of this stuff that I'm doing right now if I drop out.

54
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:44,440
So that's why I'm just gonna finish 70 days left. And it's actually funny

55
00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:53,800
because by the time I finish school I'll be on episode 150. Episode 150 will be

56
00:06:53,800 --> 00:07:02,080
published the day I finish school. That's assuming I stay consistent which I will.

57
00:07:02,080 --> 00:07:09,560
And it's also another thing. I've been meditating and I really feel like the

58
00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:17,040
gateway experience is one of the biggest things for me exploring my divine

59
00:07:17,040 --> 00:07:24,720
essence and exploring spirituality and my consciousness. Because it's very useful

60
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:32,280
reading about all this stuff. But like this, like Robert Monroe said, he said, you

61
00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:37,960
don't know until you do it or something like that. You don't know

62
00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:42,520
until you know. Or I don't remember the exact quote but I just read it in the

63
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:50,400
brochure for the Monroe Institute brochure. And I'm reading all this stuff so I

64
00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:59,120
can have better. Honestly, this is kind of a suspicion that I came across today

65
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:06,080
while I was reading my books this morning. The gateway experience or just

66
00:08:06,080 --> 00:08:12,040
meditation, me meditating and exploring all this stuff is a way for me to actually

67
00:08:12,040 --> 00:08:19,120
be one with myself and actually learn of my inner or actually experience my inner

68
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:28,560
power or my divine essence. And then books kind of ignite the flame and lead me

69
00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:35,200
forward and actually open up brand new perspectives. Because I read a few pages

70
00:08:35,200 --> 00:08:40,240
of all of the books so far which are Ascent on Humanity, Toofty the Priestess,

71
00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:46,120
Dancing After the Music Stops, Journey Out of the Bodies, Die Wise, Come of Age.

72
00:08:46,120 --> 00:08:58,640
And there's one more. I forgot what that last one was. It'll come to me eventually

73
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:06,640
but I'm doing all these, I'm reading all these books and this morning I realized

74
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:17,520
that there's so much I don't know. There's so much. I was reading the intro to a lot

75
00:09:17,520 --> 00:09:22,120
of the books and I didn't even understand any of it. And there's another thing that

76
00:09:22,120 --> 00:09:30,280
I remember from one book. I read in a book one time and the person said the

77
00:09:30,280 --> 00:09:37,720
ability to read something that you don't even understand yet is a very

78
00:09:37,720 --> 00:09:46,040
valuable skill. Because if you can read, if you just push through and read it

79
00:09:46,040 --> 00:09:49,360
even though you don't understand it, eventually you will understand it. Then

80
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:59,480
eventually you'll be able to read it. And honestly I don't know what's with it but

81
00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:08,080
today I have low energy. I didn't feel low energy at school but once I got home

82
00:10:08,080 --> 00:10:14,560
from the gym and then I got home and I meditated. Once I actually sat down to

83
00:10:14,560 --> 00:10:25,280
meditate I was like very low energy. My meditation was not very deep and I was

84
00:10:25,280 --> 00:10:31,760
just kind of very tired. I don't know why and I still am a little tired which is

85
00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:39,640
why I'm gonna be honest. I messed up and I've been slacking. One of the most

86
00:10:39,640 --> 00:10:46,920
important or one of the biggest things that will help me move forward and become

87
00:10:46,920 --> 00:10:55,560
a higher quality pie casser is the one thing that I'm not doing and it's adding

88
00:10:55,560 --> 00:11:04,600
rest days, adding buffer days and having dedicated focus days. The one thing that I

89
00:11:04,600 --> 00:11:11,960
had to do was script out seven episodes so I can record them all this weekend

90
00:11:11,960 --> 00:11:21,360
and be prepared and set up so that I can have rest days next week and then

91
00:11:21,360 --> 00:11:30,160
script out and then start the loop of scripting and then preparing. I don't

92
00:11:30,160 --> 00:11:35,760
know why I haven't done it yet. I simply just haven't prioritized it yet because I

93
00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:41,120
definitely have the time. I could do it during my reading in the morning.

94
00:11:41,120 --> 00:11:47,480
I could do it any other time. I don't know why I've been using this as an

95
00:11:47,480 --> 00:11:56,000
excuse and I especially have to do it soon because in one month I'm going out

96
00:11:56,000 --> 00:12:01,280
of town for a whole week. I'm going on vacation so this will be the longest time

97
00:12:01,280 --> 00:12:10,640
I'll be gone from my house since I started podcasting. So I really want to have

98
00:12:10,640 --> 00:12:21,160
seven. I want to have 14 episodes scheduled by the time I leave because I

99
00:12:21,160 --> 00:12:27,560
want to have that entire week resting and not podcasting at all because in two

100
00:12:27,560 --> 00:12:32,880
books that I read 10x is used in 2x as well as create don't capture they both

101
00:12:32,880 --> 00:12:39,200
said that rest is essential and you need to actually be resting and taking up

102
00:12:39,200 --> 00:12:47,480
long breaks from your work in order to be rejuvenated and ready to go for more.

103
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:55,040
So I need to have 14 episodes scheduled which should not be an issue

104
00:12:55,040 --> 00:13:03,400
because this I will be doing this scripting out seven episodes and then

105
00:13:03,400 --> 00:13:10,840
over the weekend probably not this weekend but next weekend or whenever I'm

106
00:13:10,840 --> 00:13:17,400
going to actually be recording out these episodes and then that will get me ahead

107
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:25,200
of schedule so then that will get me probably about 10 no like 12 episodes

108
00:13:25,200 --> 00:13:34,800
ahead of schedule so instead of seven episodes scheduled I'll have 12 and I

109
00:13:34,800 --> 00:13:43,880
really think that like episodes like this are more common than I want them to

110
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:48,760
be episodes where I'm low energy like on these days are the days that I should be

111
00:13:48,760 --> 00:13:54,800
taking breaks I should be taking rests but since I've set I've set myself up

112
00:13:54,800 --> 00:14:02,240
to where if I take a rest today I'm gonna have to do double tomorrow and

113
00:14:02,240 --> 00:14:08,440
that's why I need to set up this new routine or at least some routine that

114
00:14:08,440 --> 00:14:14,000
is because I feel like the biggest issue or the biggest thing holding me back

115
00:14:14,000 --> 00:14:18,280
from doing this new routine is simply the fact that I'm still in school and I

116
00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:27,920
don't have all day every day available I have I don't get home till like 12 during

117
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:35,800
school days so that's that is something holding me back from doing this routine

118
00:14:35,800 --> 00:14:41,880
but that means that I simply just have to rework it and do a different routine

119
00:14:41,880 --> 00:14:53,360
I just have to figure out a different method or a different solution and I

120
00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:58,520
finished all of the let's talk about the Monroe Institute the Gateway experience

121
00:14:58,520 --> 00:15:06,760
I finished reading all of the packets and documents that I printed out except

122
00:15:06,760 --> 00:15:11,440
for one which is probably the most beneficial that I haven't read yet but

123
00:15:11,440 --> 00:15:16,600
I'm gonna start reading it tomorrow it's called the seven resonant colors and

124
00:15:16,600 --> 00:15:23,160
it's a hundred it's about 150 pages long so that will be a long one and I'm gonna

125
00:15:23,160 --> 00:15:28,400
start reading it tomorrow during class but there's one thing actually may this

126
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:37,720
may actually be this may be one reason why I'm super tired for some reason it's

127
00:15:37,720 --> 00:15:46,240
because today I came to this solution for school literally just crank out the

128
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:52,760
work right away and just crank it out extremely quickly because then if I just

129
00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:58,120
finish it quickly then I can focus on what I actually want to focus on after

130
00:15:58,120 --> 00:16:05,200
the fact after I'm done and I did that in first period my humanities class I

131
00:16:05,200 --> 00:16:09,480
just cranked out a project and that ended up taking the entire period so I

132
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:16,600
was focused the whole period and after that and then on in third period because

133
00:16:16,600 --> 00:16:22,120
second period Jim third period I did the same thing I cranked out like three

134
00:16:22,120 --> 00:16:30,440
assignments that were due on Monday in business incubator oh and I also have

135
00:16:30,440 --> 00:16:33,680
one thing to talk about me and my friend Franklin's plan for business

136
00:16:33,680 --> 00:16:40,360
incubator but and then in fourth period I cranked out a few things in like 20

137
00:16:40,360 --> 00:16:46,520
minutes so business incubator took the whole period and then sports lit I had

138
00:16:46,520 --> 00:16:53,840
probably like 20 minutes left free so I was pretty much working all day but that

139
00:16:53,840 --> 00:17:01,680
means that tomorrow I'll probably be able to rest and just read all day tomorrow

140
00:17:01,680 --> 00:17:06,080
which reminds me I have to bring a book I'm gonna bring the seven resident

141
00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:15,440
colors book and I already have in my backpack but the thing I was gonna tell

142
00:17:15,440 --> 00:17:21,920
about business incubator so business incubator is a class that I'm taking and

143
00:17:21,920 --> 00:17:25,840
my friend Franklin's in the class as well and we're both entrepreneurs we're

144
00:17:25,840 --> 00:17:31,920
both working on our business we both have podcasts and in this class we

145
00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:43,120
basically have to build a business and yeah just build a business and we it's a

146
00:17:43,120 --> 00:17:49,640
excuse me it's a one-year long class and since we're both graduating early we're

147
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:54,840
only there for half of a year and we talked to the teacher in the beginning

148
00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:59,320
of the year and said that we can complete the whole course in one semester

149
00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:06,000
which I regret now because I don't care about that class anymore it was just the

150
00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:11,520
novelty of the class and I actually had a suspicion of this because I had a

151
00:18:11,520 --> 00:18:16,680
similar experience last year when I got when I first started the year I would

152
00:18:16,680 --> 00:18:21,000
get super excited about all my classes and then literally after like a month or

153
00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:26,880
two I would not like it anymore and I just be like oh this sucks because it's

154
00:18:26,880 --> 00:18:30,600
just the novelty and I kind of had a suspicion of the same thing happening

155
00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:38,760
and it did for all my classes but especially business incubator because

156
00:18:38,760 --> 00:18:43,600
we're working on a business about building funnels for other people and

157
00:18:43,600 --> 00:18:48,880
neither me and or my friend are really focusing on that anymore because we were

158
00:18:48,880 --> 00:18:54,240
focusing on that in the beginning of the year a lot but now we're not and now

159
00:18:54,240 --> 00:19:04,120
we're just focused on content creation so our plan revolves around this one rule

160
00:19:04,120 --> 00:19:14,080
that mr. my teacher has the one rule is we can drop our businesses anytime we

161
00:19:14,080 --> 00:19:22,320
want with no reasoning or like we can drop our businesses anytime and start

162
00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:34,600
over we want even at the end of the year so that's a huge thing and he also said

163
00:19:34,600 --> 00:19:40,720
that that will not affect our grades so that's huge because we're probably just

164
00:19:40,720 --> 00:19:45,960
gonna stay on this business until like December right before we have to leave

165
00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:54,080
and then we'll switch or we'll drop it in like November or something or we'll

166
00:19:54,080 --> 00:20:00,880
basically just work on it all semester and then just drop it or something like

167
00:20:00,880 --> 00:20:08,600
that so that's basically I told my friend because we both literally just sit in

168
00:20:08,600 --> 00:20:13,720
the back just reading we literally just study our own things like he read he's

169
00:20:13,720 --> 00:20:25,640
into reading a lot about like research and science stuff relating to diet ADHD

170
00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:31,840
all this stuff and I'm into reading about spirituality and so we're both just

171
00:20:31,840 --> 00:20:37,160
sitting in the back just reading our own things not even working on anything

172
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:43,280
which I noticed and so we devised that plan and we both agreed to do that

173
00:20:43,280 --> 00:21:11,080
because we're not into this business at all let me get some water so I want to

174
00:21:11,080 --> 00:21:20,480
talk about balance balance has actually helped me a lot and it's been about I

175
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:26,200
think around two months that I've been balancing on this medicine ball every

176
00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:34,000
single day for like five to ten minutes usually seven minutes every day and it's

177
00:21:34,000 --> 00:21:40,320
actually like benefited me a lot in my lifting especially for my squat my

178
00:21:40,320 --> 00:21:45,040
squat has helped a lot and I found that I'm a lot better at ice skating which

179
00:21:45,040 --> 00:21:53,200
ice skating is actually pretty fun but also want to talk about these neck

180
00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:58,480
exercises basically a neck push-up or it's basically where you lay on your

181
00:21:58,480 --> 00:22:07,880
back and you lift up your body with your neck and so I've been doing that for

182
00:22:07,880 --> 00:22:14,800
you few months now probably and that as well has definitely helped with

183
00:22:14,800 --> 00:22:19,240
everything I was talking to my friend today I'm hiding and I was saying like

184
00:22:19,240 --> 00:22:26,600
this has helped my squat go up help all my lifts go up because it builds your

185
00:22:26,600 --> 00:22:33,840
spine and it makes your spine so much stronger but I'm just blabbering on

186
00:22:33,840 --> 00:22:38,120
right now about random things because I'm gonna be honest I like I'm just

187
00:22:38,120 --> 00:22:46,520
completely blank right now these these types of episodes are just really tough

188
00:22:46,520 --> 00:22:54,520
and I hope that if you guys are listening to this I want you guys to know

189
00:22:54,520 --> 00:23:01,840
that you will figure things out along the way that's one of my model models

190
00:23:01,840 --> 00:23:11,040
right now just figured out along the way because I'm in this situation where

191
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:18,400
right now I'm it's evident that my podcast quality is low but then I'm also

192
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:26,360
not doing anything about it I'm not doing a single thing about it so where does

193
00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:31,720
that put me and you know what right after this episode I'm gonna do something

194
00:23:31,720 --> 00:23:38,400
about it I'm gonna start I'm gonna I don't even know what I would do I'm I'm

195
00:23:38,400 --> 00:23:48,280
gonna start to map out a actual routine that I can use during the school year for

196
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:52,440
the next 70 days because I have 70 days until I finish so I have to be doing

197
00:23:52,440 --> 00:24:00,040
this for 70 days and it's not gonna get any better unless I do something about

198
00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:08,200
it which I was actually talking to my dad last night about how I make a lot of

199
00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:13,360
changes I was telling him about this like I'm planning on making big changes to my

200
00:24:13,360 --> 00:24:19,680
routine of my schedule and he was he said he believes it because I've been

201
00:24:19,680 --> 00:24:24,800
making a lot of changes lately and I said yeah because big changes produce big

202
00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:34,280
results drastic changes produce drastic results and there's this yesterday I

203
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:40,760
think I had this notion where I was kind of in this throughout myself improvement

204
00:24:40,760 --> 00:24:45,520
journey there's like these phases where I make drastic progress and then there's

205
00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:51,680
also phases where I make progress but I'm just kind of dolly going along and

206
00:24:51,680 --> 00:24:55,760
it's evident that I'm not really making too much progress because I'm not making

207
00:24:55,760 --> 00:25:02,400
drastic changes and so yesterday I realized that I was entering this new

208
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:12,280
phase of drastic progress but now I know that I'm not unless I do this unless I

209
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:17,560
reschedule restructure my schedule because that that's the biggest thing

210
00:25:17,560 --> 00:25:22,080
that I learned about in 10x is using 2x not necessarily the biggest thing that

211
00:25:22,080 --> 00:25:27,920
I learned about as importance but it's definitely the number one thing that I

212
00:25:27,920 --> 00:25:33,440
got out of the book at the moment of the number one thing that it will be the

213
00:25:33,440 --> 00:25:41,200
most beneficial for me to implement right now so that's that's what I got

214
00:25:41,200 --> 00:25:49,800
yeah I'm not doing it it's been like 10 days no not 10 days it's been like five

215
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:56,240
days and I haven't done a single thing for it I've done a single thing to move

216
00:25:56,240 --> 00:25:58,760
towards it

217
00:25:58,760 --> 00:26:08,480
and I said I would I said that I would and I failed I failed at that

218
00:26:13,600 --> 00:26:20,320
let's talk about my meditation journey so I want to talk about my gateway

219
00:26:20,320 --> 00:26:28,640
experience journey because I just read the gate the Monroe Institute brochure

220
00:26:28,640 --> 00:26:38,120
and in it there was a quote from a Buddhist monk who's 93 years old who

221
00:26:38,120 --> 00:26:45,000
runs a Buddhist temple and he said that he went to the gateway voyage program

222
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:52,680
which is basically a program where you go to the actual Monroe Institute and it's

223
00:26:52,680 --> 00:27:00,560
like a five it's like a six-day retreat where you just focus on exploring

224
00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:04,600
your consciousness it's basically where you go in and actually use the hemisync

225
00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:14,080
and meditate and you can make a lot of progress and so he went there and he said

226
00:27:14,080 --> 00:27:21,360
that people make more progress in one year using the gateway tapes than they

227
00:27:21,360 --> 00:27:29,480
do in erno in one in one week he said people make more progress in one week

228
00:27:29,480 --> 00:27:36,720
using the gateway tapes than he did for years sitting they literally just sitting

229
00:27:36,720 --> 00:27:45,600
and meditating so basically they I'm really grateful that I've experienced I'm

230
00:27:45,600 --> 00:27:53,640
like born in this part of time because I would have had to if I was getting into

231
00:27:53,640 --> 00:27:57,520
this stuff I would have had to invested years to get to this point

232
00:27:57,520 --> 00:28:07,480
literally years because I've only spent one one month doing the gateway tapes and

233
00:28:07,480 --> 00:28:14,120
I'm almost I believe that I've achieved focus 12 but it's not very strong I'm

234
00:28:14,120 --> 00:28:19,240
definitely at focus 10 like I can get focused 10 very easily now and I actually

235
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:24,160
can get it without the tapes I haven't actually tried it but I know that I can

236
00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:30,640
because I've tried like just putting my hands to sleep in just normal waking

237
00:28:30,640 --> 00:28:37,560
reality and I'm able to do it like I'm able to put my hands like have them

238
00:28:37,560 --> 00:28:42,040
relaxed deeply when I'm just like even right now I can do it I'm doing it right

239
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:53,000
now with my hands and I haven't really gotten any like benefit or not

240
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:59,360
necessarily benefit but I haven't gotten any cool experiences yet but I've

241
00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:06,480
literally only been doing it for the visualization piece I haven't honestly I

242
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:12,560
don't even know how to experience it yet and that's that's why I added it into

243
00:29:12,560 --> 00:29:21,720
my affirmation I do not hold any expectations for what will or should

244
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:27,360
happen during these meditations and during today's meditation right before

245
00:29:27,360 --> 00:29:34,360
this episode I actually spent probably like three minutes trying to say that

246
00:29:34,360 --> 00:29:42,120
one phrase because my mind was so like it was so tired like I did all the

247
00:29:42,120 --> 00:29:45,840
preparatory process just fine and then once I got to the affirmation I

248
00:29:45,840 --> 00:29:53,760
literally just repeated I couldn't figure out how to say that that I do not

249
00:29:53,760 --> 00:29:58,800
hold any expectations for what will or should happen to these during these

250
00:29:58,800 --> 00:30:03,400
meditations I could not figure out how to say that and that's probably evident

251
00:30:03,400 --> 00:30:12,160
with my the quality of this episode right now which is another thing I know

252
00:30:12,160 --> 00:30:18,840
that people don't succeed on content creation if they just post just the post

253
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:23,600
or if they just go through the motions and it's evident that right now I'm just

254
00:30:23,600 --> 00:30:29,280
going through the motions because this like I'm obviously need a rest I

255
00:30:29,280 --> 00:30:36,520
obviously need a break and I'm obviously not like ready to record today I'm

256
00:30:36,520 --> 00:30:42,120
obviously not like up to full capacity yet I'm just going through the motions

257
00:30:42,120 --> 00:30:47,760
getting the hour done like getting it off my checklist when in reality this is

258
00:30:47,760 --> 00:30:52,400
my entire business right now like this is the foundation to everything that I

259
00:30:52,400 --> 00:30:57,600
will like this is the entire foundation to my financial future so I need to start

260
00:30:57,600 --> 00:31:04,880
treating it like it and actually actually take rest days and improve my

261
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:09,200
quality and actually learn how to get better at podcasting because right now

262
00:31:09,200 --> 00:31:14,880
I'm just hoping that my quality improves over time over repetitions when in

263
00:31:14,880 --> 00:31:25,840
reality it's repetitions under a new perspective after a new perspective so

264
00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:32,800
this is why athletes who watch a game film level up so much quicker than

265
00:31:32,800 --> 00:31:36,360
athletes who don't because they have this new perspective they can see

266
00:31:36,360 --> 00:31:45,560
themselves after the fact and in create don't capture he actually talked about he

267
00:31:45,560 --> 00:31:54,960
actually said that you should rewatch your videos or your content one week

268
00:31:54,960 --> 00:32:00,800
after the fact and rewatch it to see where you can improve upon and what

269
00:32:00,800 --> 00:32:05,760
you're doing wrong what you're doing good and just fix things because that

270
00:32:05,760 --> 00:32:17,800
yes quantity high rap like a lot of hours can help you get better but

271
00:32:17,800 --> 00:32:23,640
eventually you'll stagnant but it's the high quality hours where you're

272
00:32:23,640 --> 00:32:30,480
reviewing your footage in my case I'm re-listing to my videos and then I'm

273
00:32:30,480 --> 00:32:36,480
fixing those things because I remember over the the course of this like channel

274
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:43,040
I there was a few times where I would actually just listen to a few seconds of

275
00:32:43,040 --> 00:32:50,160
the show and I realized that there's some things that I needed to tweak for

276
00:32:50,160 --> 00:32:55,800
example there was one time where I noticed that I kept on breathing really

277
00:32:55,800 --> 00:33:01,920
loudly and then I focused on fixing that the next episode but then I forgot

278
00:33:01,920 --> 00:33:07,360
about it and I didn't like reinforce that at all so I think that my breathing

279
00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:14,600
may still be a thing a still be an issue but that's another thing I feel that my

280
00:33:14,600 --> 00:33:20,760
episode quality is going down and it's affecting my entire channel because I

281
00:33:20,760 --> 00:33:25,200
just checked my analytics right before this episode which I shouldn't have

282
00:33:25,200 --> 00:33:31,720
because that's just dumb to check analytics right before you record in my

283
00:33:31,720 --> 00:33:41,560
opinion but I did it and instead of my normal six rolling average subscribers

284
00:33:41,560 --> 00:33:49,880
I only have five now like I lost a viewer so I lost like one sixth of my

285
00:33:49,880 --> 00:33:58,080
entire viewer base my entire audience I lost and it's because once I got home

286
00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,720
from funnel hacking live my episode qualities were very poor and I remember

287
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:07,480
talking about that and then once I uploaded like episode 85 was pretty

288
00:34:07,480 --> 00:34:17,160
decent but then like this one is not good I don't think so people want high

289
00:34:17,160 --> 00:34:23,080
quality content and that's another thing I'm doing like a bunch of TikToks I'm

290
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:28,200
recording three shorts every day and posting three shorts every day yet I'm

291
00:34:28,200 --> 00:34:34,520
not growing my podcast because one I probably haven't even had enough time to

292
00:34:34,520 --> 00:34:42,680
grow an audience on my shorts but another reason is their low quality so

293
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:49,760
this is showing me that I'm not investing enough time I don't have the issue of

294
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:55,600
time just shows your priorities because right now I have no time in my day my

295
00:34:55,600 --> 00:35:00,440
entire schedule is packed so I don't have enough time to just sit and do

296
00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:07,680
nothing and think because I'm just always doing something I'm go go go and that

297
00:35:07,680 --> 00:35:14,520
shows my priorities and one blaringly obvious thing that I could get rid of

298
00:35:14,520 --> 00:35:21,720
is school which it'll be gone in 70 days so that'll free up half of my day but

299
00:35:21,720 --> 00:35:26,280
then there's another like that that will free up like four and a half hours in my

300
00:35:26,280 --> 00:35:40,240
day but then there's other things like I don't even know because all of all the

301
00:35:40,240 --> 00:35:45,320
things in my day let me just let me just tell you my entire daily routine so in

302
00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:51,440
the morning I wake up I'm not gonna say like everything that I do in detail but

303
00:35:51,440 --> 00:35:55,440
I'll just say like the important big thing so in the morning I wake up shower

304
00:35:55,440 --> 00:36:03,440
going to walk around the block which is around like seven minutes and I do I

305
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:07,520
wake about 4 a.m. so then I would shower and then go on a walk around the block

306
00:36:07,520 --> 00:36:15,680
around like 4 4 30 and I do my breathing exercises during that to

307
00:36:15,680 --> 00:36:19,960
increase my bolt score to make my breathing more effective on the walk

308
00:36:19,960 --> 00:36:27,320
and then I cook and then I meditate for like 35 minutes depending on how long

309
00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:35,020
the tape is it's 30 to 45 minutes and then I balance on my medicine ball for

310
00:36:35,020 --> 00:36:44,840
seven minutes and then I eat and then I read for from like six until 7 20 when I

311
00:36:44,840 --> 00:36:54,200
leave for school then I go to school all day until like 12 and then I go to the

312
00:36:54,200 --> 00:37:01,080
gym on days that it's my gym day and then I come home and cook eat and then I

313
00:37:01,080 --> 00:37:06,920
meditate and then I podcast and I record three TikToks right after the podcast

314
00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:13,160
and then while I'm doing all that I edit like use the software to automatically

315
00:37:13,160 --> 00:37:20,400
edit as well as post all of it and then I do my nighttime routine which is just

316
00:37:20,400 --> 00:37:31,680
brush my teeth all that stuff journal ice my balls and then I meditate and then

317
00:37:31,680 --> 00:37:36,960
go to bed that's my entire day and it takes up the entire day but on the

318
00:37:36,960 --> 00:37:44,240
weekends I do the same thing in the morning but instead of read from 6 to

319
00:37:44,240 --> 00:37:52,760
7 20 I read from 6 until 8 and then I take a nap from 8 until like 8 30 usually

320
00:37:52,760 --> 00:37:59,640
I take a 26 minute nap but lately I've actually been taking a like a 26 minute

321
00:37:59,640 --> 00:38:04,680
nap or a 30 minute nap and then turning off the alarm and then like taking

322
00:38:04,680 --> 00:38:12,600
another nap kind of just laying there without like an alarm on and then after

323
00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:19,160
like 10 15 minutes of that I just lay and stare at the wall and just think and

324
00:38:19,160 --> 00:38:26,320
that's actually extremely good for you and then and then once I'm done with that

325
00:38:26,320 --> 00:38:36,280
staring at the wall I read again and then around 10 or 11 I cook and eat and

326
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:41,880
then I go to the gym if it's my gym day and then I do the same thing like I come

327
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:46,760
home from the gym and then record or meditate and then record and then like

328
00:38:46,760 --> 00:38:52,040
my night to routine and so on the weekends is when I actually have a lot

329
00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:58,240
of time but I use a lot of that time to read which is a good investment I really

330
00:38:58,240 --> 00:39:04,160
think that reading is very like impactful for my future as well as

331
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:10,960
everything like as well as just me growing and improving and getting better

332
00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:19,160
at my show or my content creation but on the weekends like since I don't have

333
00:39:19,160 --> 00:39:26,000
any time like my ideal schedule right now is on Monday through Friday or Monday

334
00:39:26,000 --> 00:39:33,560
through Friday I do all my normal morning routine but no school and then at

335
00:39:33,560 --> 00:39:43,400
after my sleep and after my staring at the wall I just right away get down to

336
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:51,640
script out like seven episodes over the course of the five days or so and then

337
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:59,840
once I do that on Monday through Friday I just follow the same routine except

338
00:39:59,840 --> 00:40:08,920
don't podcast or record shorts and then on Saturday and Sunday I don't read as

339
00:40:08,920 --> 00:40:17,320
much I just read from six until like 7 30 or six until eight and then I take a

340
00:40:17,320 --> 00:40:25,240
nap and then I meditate and then I start recording like four episodes on

341
00:40:25,240 --> 00:40:30,160
Saturday and three episodes on Sunday as well as the tiktoks the common to

342
00:40:30,160 --> 00:40:37,800
accommodate them like that's my ideal and that's probably as of now and I

343
00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:42,240
definitely know that it'll change because 70 days is a long time especially

344
00:40:42,240 --> 00:40:46,000
if you're on a self-improvement you can grow so much on 70 days and you'll have

345
00:40:46,000 --> 00:40:49,440
a brand new perspective so I'll probably come up with an even more optimal

346
00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:57,880
routine to do once I graduate but like right now that's my plan and so I

347
00:40:57,880 --> 00:41:01,360
created this whole plan for something that I can't even take care I think

348
00:41:01,360 --> 00:41:05,880
that's actually my flaw I created this whole plan for something that I can't

349
00:41:05,880 --> 00:41:10,800
even take action on right now I can't even take action on until two months

350
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:18,800
past 70 whole days like that's a lot of that's a long time so I need to create

351
00:41:18,800 --> 00:41:22,600
this plan that's actionable right now so that's what I'm gonna do after this

352
00:41:22,600 --> 00:41:30,040
episode I'm gonna finish all my leg net stuff and then go upstairs and literally

353
00:41:30,040 --> 00:41:35,600
just actually no I'm gonna do it right here while this episode is updating or

354
00:41:35,600 --> 00:41:39,800
downloading I'm gonna write it down in this notebook and I'm just gonna brainstorm

355
00:41:39,800 --> 00:41:45,800
I'm gonna this is what I did while I was reading the okay wait I actually have

356
00:41:45,800 --> 00:41:50,160
two plans I have to create my five pillars because that's gonna be extremely

357
00:41:50,160 --> 00:41:56,360
important for me promoting or not promoting but me creating content and

358
00:41:56,360 --> 00:42:00,440
re-scripting out all the content because your five pillars are basically the five

359
00:42:00,440 --> 00:42:05,120
things that you talk about on your show and they could be different things so in

360
00:42:05,120 --> 00:42:10,560
I learned about this originally in Russell's books expert secrets I think it

361
00:42:10,560 --> 00:42:17,680
was or traffic secrets I don't remember but I learned about that it's basically

362
00:42:17,680 --> 00:42:23,880
the five like ideas or concepts that you talk about on your show and then you

363
00:42:23,880 --> 00:42:28,080
kind of cycle through them all and so what I was thinking is self-improvement

364
00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:35,320
spirituality and then I don't even know what else to say because that's like

365
00:42:35,320 --> 00:42:40,520
really what I'm only talking about right now I'll figure it out after this

366
00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:48,520
episode and then I also had to figure out what I did to like map out my the

367
00:42:48,520 --> 00:42:54,920
optimal plan for after I graduate the five days of rest and then two days to

368
00:42:54,920 --> 00:43:01,240
record seven episodes I literally just wrote a box like I drew three boxes on

369
00:43:01,240 --> 00:43:09,680
the page one was R which is rest one is B which is buffer and then one was F

370
00:43:09,680 --> 00:43:18,400
which is focus so I drew three squares with R B F inside of each of them and

371
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:27,040
then that was like the key and then I literally just drew like I wrote letters

372
00:43:27,040 --> 00:43:33,640
M T W Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday Friday Saturday Sunday and then I kind of

373
00:43:33,640 --> 00:43:41,640
just like kept on placing the different boxes to see like what see like the best

374
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:46,560
kind of like experiment with the different types of schedules and I kind

375
00:43:46,560 --> 00:43:53,760
of just figured out over just experimentation by drawing out different

376
00:43:53,760 --> 00:43:58,640
schedules and then I stopped once I found the most optimal schedule when I'm

377
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:04,960
not in school but since I'm still in school I have to I think what I'm going

378
00:44:04,960 --> 00:44:11,280
to do instead is map out all of the time available that I have so pretty much on

379
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:18,200
days where I'm not in school I'm three days on in the gym two days off so I'll

380
00:44:18,200 --> 00:44:28,760
map out that I have like probably from 315 until 445 so I have like an hour and

381
00:44:28,760 --> 00:44:38,760
a half on days where I go to the gym available and then I have probably about

382
00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:48,480
two like three hours or four I think like three or four hours on days where I'm

383
00:44:48,480 --> 00:44:56,160
not at the gym so I'm actually going to map out all of the time free time that

384
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:04,200
I have over the course of like the week I'm just gonna say like since Monday is

385
00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:10,360
always a different day like since I go three days on two days off it cycles so

386
00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:14,200
I don't always have a rest day on Monday like some days it's rest day and

387
00:45:14,200 --> 00:45:19,880
some days is the gym day so I'm gonna I'll figure out the schedule from there

388
00:45:19,880 --> 00:45:23,640
maybe I'll create a five-day schedule instead of a seven-day schedule and then

389
00:45:23,640 --> 00:45:29,240
just cycle through from there that's actually good I've never really done

390
00:45:29,240 --> 00:45:38,000
something like this before like create a creative schedule I kind of just figure

391
00:45:38,000 --> 00:45:44,320
out my routines in my in my mind and then just add things over time but this is

392
00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:49,480
actually a good idea to create a five-day schedule of gym like three gym

393
00:45:49,480 --> 00:45:55,760
days and then two rest days and then just repeat and then like my schedule will

394
00:45:55,760 --> 00:46:01,640
be based around the gym since that's like the kind of non-negotiables even

395
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:07,160
though I should I should just drop the gym I should just lower my gym time I

396
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:13,000
should just go to the gym just to maintain but I don't want to do that

397
00:46:13,000 --> 00:46:18,680
because that's my only exercise that I get and over summer I actually was in

398
00:46:18,680 --> 00:46:24,680
very good condition I was in good fitness level because we were me and my

399
00:46:24,680 --> 00:46:28,360
friend were sprinting at the park every day we would always just do sprints and

400
00:46:28,360 --> 00:46:35,200
so I was like in really good shape over summer and then since school started we

401
00:46:35,200 --> 00:46:39,320
didn't have time to do it anymore so we stopped or at least I stopped

402
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:46,640
exercising my cardio and I can definitely feel the difference cardio as

403
00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:53,040
well as grounding so that's that's also why during my slide in my visualization

404
00:46:53,040 --> 00:47:01,400
I visualize myself doing like my day-to-day stuff like I visualize myself

405
00:47:01,400 --> 00:47:07,640
doing sprints lifting doing like swimming in the ocean like all of these

406
00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:14,760
taking cold ice baths all these things in in Hawaii where my goal takes place my

407
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:20,840
slide takes place and so I take my kind of that's part of my slide as well as

408
00:47:20,840 --> 00:47:24,560
meditating on the beach which is probably one of the things I'm looking

409
00:47:24,560 --> 00:47:31,520
most forward to meditating naked on the beach my own private beach where no one

410
00:47:31,520 --> 00:47:39,800
else has access to that's a cool cool experience that I want to have every day

411
00:47:39,800 --> 00:47:47,200
multiple times a day but that's like I know that how like fitness is so

412
00:47:47,200 --> 00:47:53,440
important especially for this like especially for content creation because

413
00:47:53,440 --> 00:47:58,840
that's why rest days are so valuable and that's why maybe I'll even add in on my

414
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:07,280
rest days like cardio or something to add in on my rest days for creating content

415
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:12,880
if I have free time maybe I'll just go for a run or something like that because

416
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:17,800
that's another thing one of my friends texted me like on Sunday and today is

417
00:48:17,800 --> 00:48:24,760
Thursday so my friend texted me like five days ago and I didn't see it until

418
00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:29,480
last night because I simply just hadn't have enough time to check my phone like

419
00:48:29,480 --> 00:48:34,800
imagine that you don't have enough time to even check your phone I was I used to

420
00:48:34,800 --> 00:48:39,200
check my phone like hundreds of times a day and be on my phone for hours every

421
00:48:39,200 --> 00:48:44,160
day but I I wasn't even I didn't even open actually I did that's a lie because I

422
00:48:44,160 --> 00:48:49,520
opened my phone every day to record videos but I didn't like check any texts

423
00:48:49,520 --> 00:48:54,720
or anything because the way my phone is set up is I don't have any notifications

424
00:48:54,720 --> 00:48:59,720
on I do not serve on at all times airplane mode powered off and on my

425
00:48:59,720 --> 00:49:05,600
home screen there's nothing there's no apps I have to search manually and so I

426
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:13,040
don't see like any notifications that I get so I simply just don't check and I

427
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:19,880
got like I had a few texts yesterday when I checked my phone like I don't even

428
00:49:19,880 --> 00:49:22,800
have enough time to check my phone which is a good thing like it's a good thing

429
00:49:22,800 --> 00:49:27,160
not to check your phone but I don't have enough time to just sit and stare

430
00:49:27,160 --> 00:49:34,320
blankly or take naps when naps are extremely valuable because on the

431
00:49:34,320 --> 00:49:40,920
weekends I was every single okay so since I am a part-time student every day

432
00:49:40,920 --> 00:49:46,960
kind of feels like a mini weekend because I get home at 12 and then I

433
00:49:46,960 --> 00:49:55,880
basically have like 20 plus hours until the next no probably not 20 hours

434
00:49:55,880 --> 00:50:01,680
actually yeah 20 hours until then until I have to go to school again when before

435
00:50:01,680 --> 00:50:08,560
it was probably like 15 hours or 12 hours or something like that no it was

436
00:50:08,560 --> 00:50:16,560
it was more like 15 or 16 I don't even it it doesn't matter but I was like I

437
00:50:16,560 --> 00:50:24,520
used to or right now I have all day like the entire afternoon like by the time

438
00:50:24,520 --> 00:50:31,120
I'm done meditating after having gone to the gym after cooking after eating

439
00:50:31,120 --> 00:50:38,360
after meditating school is still in session

440
00:50:40,520 --> 00:50:45,960
and so it kind of feels like every single day I definitely have a long

441
00:50:45,960 --> 00:50:51,160
break from school but on the weekends it's even longer because I get home for

442
00:50:51,160 --> 00:50:58,960
on Friday around 12 around 12 yeah around 12 and then I don't have to go to

443
00:50:58,960 --> 00:51:07,840
school until Monday until I literally have like two and a half days and I was

444
00:51:07,840 --> 00:51:12,360
talking I was actually telling my mom that I get so much progress like I

445
00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:19,480
gained so much progress and I get so much time my weekend is so optimal because

446
00:51:19,480 --> 00:51:29,560
I'm that's another thing I was lately in my classes so in business incubator like

447
00:51:29,560 --> 00:51:35,680
I said earlier in this episode I like cranked out all of my work but I was

448
00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:39,040
sitting next to my friend and he was still just focusing on his stuff like

449
00:51:39,040 --> 00:51:46,000
his personal work and he still had like all of his school work to do and I

450
00:51:46,000 --> 00:51:50,880
decided to crank it out because I didn't want to have to do it at home and let me

451
00:51:50,880 --> 00:51:57,120
tell you why at school you're kind of like default is not focused like there's

452
00:51:57,120 --> 00:52:06,160
like this lingering element in the air that reduces your focus and it kind of

453
00:52:06,160 --> 00:52:11,320
like it's like the it's like the most sophisticated factory that I was telling

454
00:52:11,320 --> 00:52:18,680
you about it just being in that building destroys like everything like it just

455
00:52:18,680 --> 00:52:22,600
being in that building slowly tears you apart even if you're not necessarily

456
00:52:22,600 --> 00:52:28,600
doing anything related to school so that's why I choose to do my schoolwork

457
00:52:28,600 --> 00:52:35,080
at school instead of at home because at home is a time where I can truly focus

458
00:52:35,080 --> 00:52:39,440
on my own stuff and I don't have that like baseline biting at me all the time

459
00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:44,360
it's a it's a hard concept to explain but I'm sure people in a similar

460
00:52:44,360 --> 00:52:49,280
situation to I am where they're extremely they're way more aware of their

461
00:52:49,280 --> 00:52:55,760
bodies and where the more aware of like the their focus and all that stuff I'm

462
00:52:55,760 --> 00:53:01,760
sure that they can like I'm sure you guys are able to tell or at least

463
00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:06,720
understand what I'm saying about school so that's why I focus on doing my work

464
00:53:06,720 --> 00:53:15,840
at school because I know that like my parents only want me to have to have no

465
00:53:15,840 --> 00:53:20,360
missing assignments and have good grades and if I have missing assignments then

466
00:53:20,360 --> 00:53:24,520
that's when I have to do it at home and I don't want to waste my time at home

467
00:53:24,520 --> 00:53:29,560
when I could use the time at school that's another reason why I hate homework

468
00:53:29,560 --> 00:53:35,160
like I always say I don't do homework because it's a waste of time why waste

469
00:53:35,160 --> 00:53:41,800
your time at home doing schoolwork when you could like home your baseline focus

470
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:47,160
level is normal it's like neutral but then at school it like eats away at your

471
00:53:47,160 --> 00:53:52,800
focus just being there so you might as well do the waste of time work like

472
00:53:52,800 --> 00:53:58,400
schoolwork and homework at school when you are wasting when you're already

473
00:53:58,400 --> 00:54:06,080
wasting away so that's why if I had the option of doing the schoolwork or slacking

474
00:54:06,080 --> 00:54:10,640
off with the schoolwork and doing my home like my own reading I would prefer

475
00:54:10,640 --> 00:54:14,320
to do the schoolwork because I know that in the future I have to do that school

476
00:54:14,320 --> 00:54:20,440
work anyway and it would end up being at home or I could just read at home and

477
00:54:20,440 --> 00:54:26,080
actually have the focus that it requires and actually be able to focus a lot more

478
00:54:26,080 --> 00:54:33,280
on the stuff that's actually important to me and that's that's like kind of my

479
00:54:33,280 --> 00:54:40,320
take on schoolwork and I'm all caught up so tomorrow I think that I'll be able to

480
00:54:40,320 --> 00:54:44,800
do absolutely nothing although or I'll be able to actually read my own stuff

481
00:54:44,800 --> 00:54:51,080
which if I have no schoolwork to do I'm fine reading my own stuff even though my

482
00:54:51,080 --> 00:54:57,680
focus level is not gonna be as high that's okay I want to talk about for want

483
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:03,800
to talk about staying awake I realize that I have to be even more relentless

484
00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:08,760
because over summer yes I was relentless with being awake and by the way

485
00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:14,000
being awake is when you're when you're controlling your attention and it is

486
00:55:14,000 --> 00:55:25,040
kind of your attention is like lying in between outer and the inner screen so

487
00:55:25,040 --> 00:55:30,160
your outer screen is anything going on outside so if you're watching the video

488
00:55:30,160 --> 00:55:35,480
the outer screen would be the video and then inner screen is anything going on

489
00:55:35,480 --> 00:55:45,320
inside your head and actually the outer screen this podcast like the audio would

490
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:49,280
also be considered outer screen I believe but inner screen is anything

491
00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:52,720
that's going on inside your head so whenever you're deep in thought you're

492
00:55:52,720 --> 00:55:58,040
in the inner screen and when you're deep into one or the other you're asleep

493
00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:04,120
but you're awake when you focus you control your attention like in between

494
00:56:04,120 --> 00:56:09,240
the two when you're focused on both the inner and the outer screen and so that's

495
00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:13,320
what I learned in 250 the priestess a book by Vadim Zelen about transurfing

496
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:21,240
and in that book literally the first couple chapters he just points out that

497
00:56:21,240 --> 00:56:27,480
you need to be awake like he said that you need to be awake one at least you

498
00:56:27,480 --> 00:56:31,600
you need to wake up for one whole hour and that was just like a small number

499
00:56:31,600 --> 00:56:35,120
that he threw out there and I've never even achieved one hour straight of

500
00:56:35,120 --> 00:56:43,760
being awake I don't think and so I like this morning on my bike ride I decided

501
00:56:43,760 --> 00:56:47,400
that I was gonna be awake and I was gonna be relentless again at staying awake

502
00:56:47,400 --> 00:56:53,080
so that's what I did on my bike ride I kept on reminding myself to wake up now

503
00:56:53,080 --> 00:56:58,920
I was falling asleep a lot but I was I was I have the habit now of calling

504
00:56:58,920 --> 00:57:04,200
myself to wake up a lot more now so I would like wake up and then I'd say

505
00:57:04,200 --> 00:57:08,320
awake for a few seconds and then I fall asleep and then a few moments later I'd

506
00:57:08,320 --> 00:57:15,120
wake up again and then like the cycle would repeat but then I found that just

507
00:57:15,120 --> 00:57:21,120
like how at school your focus level is kind of eaten away at your like

508
00:57:21,120 --> 00:57:26,040
concentrate your control of your concentrations are also eaten away and I

509
00:57:26,040 --> 00:57:32,400
can't explain it but when I'm at school I'm not awake that often like it's I'm

510
00:57:32,400 --> 00:57:38,280
not awake too often at school it's just the environment that produces the

511
00:57:38,280 --> 00:57:43,560
negative focus level as well as loss of attention loss of control over your

512
00:57:43,560 --> 00:57:48,160
attention and that's another thing your time is your like I've always heard your

513
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:53,240
time is the most valuable resource when I was learning about financial freedom

514
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:59,200
I'm like unscripted people trade away their time for money when in reality time

515
00:57:59,200 --> 00:58:05,960
is way more valuable than money but it's actually the most valuable resource is

516
00:58:05,960 --> 00:58:13,120
your attention and so yes people have a lot of time but they don't have a lot

517
00:58:13,120 --> 00:58:18,400
of attention because they're not controlling their attention so there's

518
00:58:18,400 --> 00:58:25,040
like time when you're asleep you have a lot no control of your attention so

519
00:58:25,040 --> 00:58:28,920
you're just you have no attention like you're wasting your attention so that

520
00:58:28,920 --> 00:58:35,080
time is wasted it's useless but it's not until you actually take control of your

521
00:58:35,080 --> 00:58:40,760
attention then you start having like optimal time and that's when your time

522
00:58:40,760 --> 00:58:48,520
is actually like valuable so the time like control of your attention is the

523
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:57,200
most important thing in maybe in life I don't know that you when you he was

524
00:58:57,200 --> 00:59:00,680
saying when you don't have control over your attention you don't have control

525
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:05,840
over yourself or your soul is not your own like when you don't have control over

526
00:59:05,840 --> 00:59:11,080
your attention like when you're asleep your soul is not your own so basically

527
00:59:11,080 --> 00:59:19,000
what using those words the most sophisticated factory the American

528
00:59:19,000 --> 00:59:25,680
school system education system basically when you like it kind of force it

529
00:59:25,680 --> 00:59:30,560
forms you to lose control of your attention and so basically you're just

530
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:33,520
walking along and you're not even in control of yourself you're not even

531
00:59:33,520 --> 00:59:40,120
yourself you're just a cog and you lose your individuality which is actually

532
00:59:40,120 --> 00:59:46,280
insane to think about it's really saddening but I'm really glad I'm gonna

533
00:59:46,280 --> 00:59:55,240
be out of this place in in 70 days but that's the end of the episode so to wrap
