Enjoy the show. Do you ever wonder how you got

00:00:24.239 --> 00:00:27.100
here, in this strange, beautiful Earth space?

00:00:28.109 --> 00:00:30.910
Do you sometimes feel the pull of something older,

00:00:31.109 --> 00:00:35.369
deeper? Something your mind can't explain, but

00:00:35.369 --> 00:00:40.530
your soul recognizes instantly? Is this earth

00:00:40.530 --> 00:00:43.350
journey one you chose, or a journey that chose

00:00:43.350 --> 00:00:46.369
you? And what if your experiences here aren't

00:00:46.369 --> 00:00:49.490
accidents, but intentional messages, waiting

00:00:49.490 --> 00:00:58.609
to be decoded? We may not find all the answers,

00:00:58.909 --> 00:01:02.109
but we can enjoy the journey together, knocking

00:01:02.109 --> 00:01:09.769
on doors and asking meaningful questions. You're

00:01:09.769 --> 00:01:18.049
safe here. Let's decode our life journeys together.

00:01:18.969 --> 00:01:24.640
Welcome to Soul Decodes. Greetings, beautiful

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:26.500
people, and welcome. You're listening to Soul

00:01:26.500 --> 00:01:30.840
Decodes, episode 71. My name is Dr. Tia Jolie

00:01:30.840 --> 00:01:33.280
Phillips. Welcome. Listen, we've been around

00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:35.760
for over a year now, and we've done some great

00:01:35.760 --> 00:01:38.659
episodes. We're winding down the end of the year

00:01:38.659 --> 00:01:42.959
here at 2026. It's late in the year. We've been

00:01:42.959 --> 00:01:45.579
through quite a bit with where we've been with

00:01:45.579 --> 00:01:47.659
Soul Decodes. For those of you who've been around

00:01:47.659 --> 00:01:49.260
for a while, you're probably saying, well, where's

00:01:49.260 --> 00:01:52.780
Sarah today? Sarah and I started Soul Decodes.

00:01:53.530 --> 00:01:57.849
well, 70 episodes ago, and both of us are extremely

00:01:57.849 --> 00:02:01.310
busy. I don't think I know many people that are

00:02:01.310 --> 00:02:05.489
more busy than Sarah and me individually. Well,

00:02:05.569 --> 00:02:08.129
she's writing several novels. She's a very prolific

00:02:08.129 --> 00:02:10.210
author, and she's written several novels, and

00:02:10.210 --> 00:02:13.669
she's really maxed out right now, and she's asked

00:02:13.669 --> 00:02:16.889
for a respite. So we'll be hearing more from

00:02:16.889 --> 00:02:19.490
Sarah, but not as frequently, maybe once a month.

00:02:19.960 --> 00:02:22.060
Maybe less, maybe more. We're not really sure

00:02:22.060 --> 00:02:24.819
how it plays out. But I'm going to be guiding

00:02:24.819 --> 00:02:27.120
you through some things now. I've actually wanted

00:02:27.120 --> 00:02:29.759
an opportunity to share some things with you

00:02:29.759 --> 00:02:33.860
that I think will be helpful and possibly even

00:02:33.860 --> 00:02:36.379
change your life or even change the course of

00:02:36.379 --> 00:02:39.379
your journey through this earth space. So my

00:02:39.379 --> 00:02:43.020
intent today is to make it a little bit entertaining,

00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:45.689
maybe... share some ideas that I might have.

00:02:45.729 --> 00:02:48.030
I'm not going to pretend to know everything and

00:02:48.030 --> 00:02:52.909
you'll understand why I believe that way, why

00:02:52.909 --> 00:02:57.330
I question everything I say, because this episode

00:02:57.330 --> 00:03:00.189
is going to be about first principles. Now, for

00:03:00.189 --> 00:03:03.009
those of you who've not ever heard about first

00:03:03.009 --> 00:03:05.949
principles, this is going to be a very good episode.

00:03:06.460 --> 00:03:08.800
for you. This is going to be something you might

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:11.199
want to bookmark. You might want to listen a

00:03:11.199 --> 00:03:14.379
couple times actually to it and maybe even share

00:03:14.379 --> 00:03:16.919
with some people because this affects basically

00:03:16.919 --> 00:03:20.699
every single part of your life, or at least I

00:03:20.699 --> 00:03:23.719
hope it will. My intention with my other podcasts

00:03:23.719 --> 00:03:28.219
like Studio 17, the byline for Studio 17 is to

00:03:28.219 --> 00:03:31.939
question everything, rinse, repeat. And that

00:03:31.939 --> 00:03:34.360
really dovetails into what we're going to be

00:03:34.360 --> 00:03:37.520
talking about today with first principles. Without

00:03:37.520 --> 00:03:40.580
too much more detail, let's talk about what first

00:03:40.580 --> 00:03:42.979
principles are. I'm going to be dovetailing everything

00:03:42.979 --> 00:03:46.800
about first principles back into this idea of

00:03:46.800 --> 00:03:50.060
what's this mean to us in our soul's journey.

00:03:50.180 --> 00:03:52.180
So I'm going to talk about several different

00:03:52.180 --> 00:03:56.120
areas that affect our earth lives, our journeys

00:03:56.120 --> 00:03:58.560
through this earth space. But just understand

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:02.360
that I'm... My intent is to dovetail all of our

00:04:02.360 --> 00:04:06.560
earth experiences into this idea of what does

00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:09.699
this mean to me as a soul? Let me lay down, for

00:04:09.699 --> 00:04:11.740
those of you who've never heard the program before,

00:04:12.500 --> 00:04:17.120
it's my idea is that each of us has a soul, and

00:04:17.120 --> 00:04:19.379
our soul's going through this earth space on

00:04:19.379 --> 00:04:22.870
a journey. Some people believe we've been through

00:04:22.870 --> 00:04:25.430
here before and we've reincarnated and maybe

00:04:25.430 --> 00:04:27.509
we've had multiple lives. Other people, their

00:04:27.509 --> 00:04:29.889
belief systems are such that this is our first

00:04:29.889 --> 00:04:32.629
and only time through here. Regardless of what

00:04:32.629 --> 00:04:36.089
your belief system is, you're on a journey. Your

00:04:36.089 --> 00:04:38.290
soul is experiencing something, whether you're

00:04:38.290 --> 00:04:42.350
an earthling having a soulful experience or whether

00:04:42.350 --> 00:04:44.670
you're a soul having an earth experience, it

00:04:44.670 --> 00:04:47.170
still means something. With that as a backdrop,

00:04:47.389 --> 00:04:49.819
I wanted to share that. We have this spiritual

00:04:49.819 --> 00:04:52.620
operating system that involves going through

00:04:52.620 --> 00:04:56.620
this earth. If our soul is external to us, meaning

00:04:56.620 --> 00:05:00.540
our soul existed before this lifetime and it's

00:05:00.540 --> 00:05:04.319
continuing after this lifetime, then our experience

00:05:04.319 --> 00:05:06.860
on this earth space is not a random thing. It's

00:05:06.860 --> 00:05:09.079
actually something that we need to pay attention

00:05:09.079 --> 00:05:12.980
to. We must ask, who are we and why are we here?

00:05:13.740 --> 00:05:16.199
It's really, in my world, it's a developmental

00:05:16.199 --> 00:05:19.180
journey. It's an environment where we can grow

00:05:19.180 --> 00:05:22.160
as individuals and also help each other grow

00:05:22.160 --> 00:05:25.339
collectively. So in my world, I sometimes refer

00:05:25.339 --> 00:05:27.839
to this as an academy, like it's the Earth Academy.

00:05:28.399 --> 00:05:31.420
It's a proving ground for us to learn about ourselves.

00:05:31.500 --> 00:05:35.079
We have to learn about how we think, how we discern

00:05:35.079 --> 00:05:39.139
fact from fiction. What does this mean? Where

00:05:39.139 --> 00:05:41.560
does courage come from? How do I navigate myself

00:05:41.560 --> 00:05:44.439
and the circumstances around me? What is sovereignty?

00:05:45.230 --> 00:05:47.870
Is the world around me beholden to me or am I

00:05:47.870 --> 00:05:51.029
some slave to the world around me? You know,

00:05:51.050 --> 00:05:53.629
these are all things that involve our personal

00:05:53.629 --> 00:05:56.930
ascension and our personal awakening. I'm going

00:05:56.930 --> 00:06:00.709
to even say our remembrance of what our soul

00:06:00.709 --> 00:06:02.990
is all about. What we're going to talk about

00:06:02.990 --> 00:06:05.170
basically, I'm going to walk through first principles

00:06:05.170 --> 00:06:09.370
as a governing idea, a governing concept. Then

00:06:09.370 --> 00:06:11.149
I'm going to cover for each of the topics a little

00:06:11.149 --> 00:06:15.189
bit about how the systems around us. have either

00:06:15.189 --> 00:06:18.350
intentionally or unintentionally either violated

00:06:18.350 --> 00:06:22.310
our system, the first principle systems, or distorted

00:06:22.310 --> 00:06:25.490
the principle of first principle to create a

00:06:25.490 --> 00:06:28.949
bias that's really messing things up for us individually

00:06:28.949 --> 00:06:31.829
and collectively. I'm also going to explore,

00:06:31.949 --> 00:06:34.509
take it a step further and say, okay, well, if

00:06:34.509 --> 00:06:36.709
the first principles are messed up or biased

00:06:36.709 --> 00:06:40.610
or distorted, what does that mean to us as we

00:06:41.389 --> 00:06:43.490
As we look forward, you know, what does that

00:06:43.490 --> 00:06:46.810
failure mean externally? And then finally, what

00:06:46.810 --> 00:06:49.509
does that failure mean internally to ourself

00:06:49.509 --> 00:06:53.550
and our soul's journey? So probably the most,

00:06:53.629 --> 00:06:55.769
so I'm going to go through these pretty quickly.

00:06:55.829 --> 00:06:57.610
Hopefully I don't bore you. I don't think you

00:06:57.610 --> 00:07:00.350
will, because if you understand the impact of

00:07:00.350 --> 00:07:03.009
what first principles are about, I think you're

00:07:03.009 --> 00:07:05.769
going to find this to be very useful. So the

00:07:05.769 --> 00:07:11.810
first thing is politics and government. No matter

00:07:11.810 --> 00:07:14.389
where you are in the world, we have politics

00:07:14.389 --> 00:07:17.829
and government. Now, for me, poly means many

00:07:17.829 --> 00:07:21.269
and tics are bloodsuckers. So politics just simply

00:07:21.269 --> 00:07:24.110
means many bloodsuckers. Now, you can question

00:07:24.110 --> 00:07:27.029
that, but that's my first principle, okay? But

00:07:27.029 --> 00:07:28.870
I'm going to go deeper than that. That's just

00:07:28.870 --> 00:07:31.329
my personal belief. And if you don't believe

00:07:31.329 --> 00:07:33.750
it, look up what government means. Look at the

00:07:33.750 --> 00:07:37.350
genesis of the word. Governed means to control

00:07:37.350 --> 00:07:41.910
and meant means mind. Right. Like mental. So

00:07:41.910 --> 00:07:45.269
government is mind control. So my first principle

00:07:45.269 --> 00:07:47.750
that we're going to talk about is that authority

00:07:47.750 --> 00:07:51.490
exists. So in other words, I'm going to talk

00:07:51.490 --> 00:07:53.410
about the United States. All right. So we're

00:07:53.410 --> 00:07:56.009
going to talk about authority in the United States.

00:07:56.009 --> 00:07:57.810
You could talk about it within your country,

00:07:57.970 --> 00:08:01.170
whatever you deem as authority, whatever you

00:08:01.170 --> 00:08:04.269
give authority to as a sovereign, as your soul

00:08:04.269 --> 00:08:07.569
gives authority to somebody or some entity, that

00:08:07.569 --> 00:08:10.680
entity exists. to protect your life, your liberty,

00:08:10.779 --> 00:08:14.100
and your conscience, okay? It's not to replace

00:08:14.100 --> 00:08:18.079
them. This is the reason we have these politicians

00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:21.279
and then the governments is they're supposed

00:08:21.279 --> 00:08:23.579
to serve us and they're supposed to make our

00:08:23.579 --> 00:08:26.040
lives better and easier and they're supposed

00:08:26.040 --> 00:08:29.759
to facilitate our pursuit of life, liberty, and

00:08:29.759 --> 00:08:32.220
the pursuit of happiness, right? So this is a

00:08:32.220 --> 00:08:35.480
first basic principle. Why do we even have politics

00:08:35.480 --> 00:08:38.299
and why do we have government? Now, what happens

00:08:38.299 --> 00:08:45.000
is if that fails, if we give authority to one

00:08:45.000 --> 00:08:48.039
of those entities, either it's an individual

00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:50.899
or a group of individuals, and they fail the

00:08:50.899 --> 00:08:53.759
first principle, and that means they don't understand

00:08:53.759 --> 00:08:57.840
why they exist, what's their purpose for existing,

00:08:58.080 --> 00:09:01.759
then what happens is that power begins to justify

00:09:01.759 --> 00:09:05.000
itself. The power that we've surrendered to those

00:09:05.000 --> 00:09:08.360
entities. begin to take a life of their own.

00:09:08.460 --> 00:09:10.419
And you can see that every direction from the

00:09:10.419 --> 00:09:14.039
local level, from the HOA, if you live with an

00:09:14.039 --> 00:09:17.320
HOA, all the way up to the world level, the power

00:09:17.320 --> 00:09:20.659
begins to justify its own existence. In a similar

00:09:20.659 --> 00:09:24.480
manner, they create policies and laws that actually

00:09:24.480 --> 00:09:28.700
not only justify their own existence, but also

00:09:28.700 --> 00:09:33.019
they replace morality and ethics. So we can go

00:09:33.019 --> 00:09:34.580
into deep dive on this, but I'm just throwing

00:09:34.580 --> 00:09:39.360
out the framework for you. And finally, and probably

00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:41.820
worst of all, the bureaucracy actually replaces

00:09:41.820 --> 00:09:45.100
personal responsibility. In the case of the United

00:09:45.100 --> 00:09:48.340
States, if we have a taxing authority that's

00:09:48.340 --> 00:09:51.580
going to come and take my money and then they're

00:09:51.580 --> 00:09:54.000
going to drop bombs on people, we might think

00:09:54.000 --> 00:09:57.929
ourselves ethical people. by saying, well, that's

00:09:57.929 --> 00:09:59.809
a good thing if the bombs are dropping on bad

00:09:59.809 --> 00:10:02.549
people, right? But who makes that authority?

00:10:02.850 --> 00:10:06.190
We're surrendering this decision about who lives

00:10:06.190 --> 00:10:08.809
and who dies. We're voting for these politicians.

00:10:08.950 --> 00:10:10.830
We're putting governments in place and entities

00:10:10.830 --> 00:10:15.029
in place. But we're doing that pretty much that

00:10:15.029 --> 00:10:18.370
we're surrendering our responsibility for what

00:10:18.370 --> 00:10:21.110
happens with the money, with the taxing, with

00:10:21.110 --> 00:10:24.220
the bombs. We've basically... We've offloaded

00:10:24.220 --> 00:10:27.039
those responsibilities. And that's a modern failure.

00:10:27.460 --> 00:10:29.639
What we've done essentially is we've expanded

00:10:29.639 --> 00:10:32.620
control outside of ourselves. We've given up

00:10:32.620 --> 00:10:37.080
control. Unwillingly or unwittingly, we've shrunk

00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:39.100
our own personal accountability in doing so.

00:10:39.980 --> 00:10:44.460
Being a citizen, we're reduced to this population

00:10:44.460 --> 00:10:48.700
of managed little sheep. Basically, we're just

00:10:48.700 --> 00:10:52.190
little robots that are subject to these... authority

00:10:52.190 --> 00:10:54.149
figures which is not really the way it should

00:10:54.149 --> 00:10:56.409
be if you're in a soul that's going through this

00:10:56.409 --> 00:10:59.950
earth space you're permitting these external

00:10:59.950 --> 00:11:02.330
authorities these politicians and these governments

00:11:02.330 --> 00:11:05.409
to dictate to you what's going to happen in the

00:11:05.409 --> 00:11:08.429
world around you then what happens is your soul

00:11:08.429 --> 00:11:12.309
is no longer free it's no longer sovereign you're

00:11:12.309 --> 00:11:16.750
actually again either intentionally or unintentionally

00:11:16.750 --> 00:11:20.330
the more authority you give away the more you

00:11:20.330 --> 00:11:22.309
subjugate yourself, you actually put yourself

00:11:22.309 --> 00:11:26.990
into chains because you're giving somebody else

00:11:26.990 --> 00:11:30.049
permission to run your life and to basically

00:11:30.049 --> 00:11:32.330
dictate the direction of your soul. And if you

00:11:32.330 --> 00:11:35.490
haven't noticed the past five years, you know,

00:11:35.490 --> 00:11:39.049
when people are talking about not even permitting

00:11:39.049 --> 00:11:41.730
each other to come within six feet of each other

00:11:41.730 --> 00:11:45.840
because of some hypothetical situation. Right.

00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.100
Or you have to cover your mask or no go in public

00:11:48.100 --> 00:11:50.480
or don't go to your church. Those are things

00:11:50.480 --> 00:11:54.440
that those are consequences from us independent

00:11:54.440 --> 00:11:58.039
sovereign souls surrendering authority to nameless,

00:11:58.059 --> 00:12:00.539
faceless people that don't really matter in the

00:12:00.539 --> 00:12:05.899
end. So, again, what happens is we as sovereign

00:12:05.899 --> 00:12:09.379
souls, our morality individually and collectively

00:12:09.379 --> 00:12:13.620
kind of atrophies when we give agency to other

00:12:13.620 --> 00:12:18.240
entities. our personal morality atrophies to

00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:20.179
the degree that we permit these other agencies

00:12:20.179 --> 00:12:23.220
to act on our behalf, okay? And this happens

00:12:23.220 --> 00:12:26.419
whether it's in school or the military or really

00:12:26.419 --> 00:12:29.039
even any way you go, even in your family, at

00:12:29.039 --> 00:12:32.059
the family level. Another unfortunate thing when

00:12:32.059 --> 00:12:35.740
you start to offshed, when you pass off this

00:12:35.740 --> 00:12:40.279
sovereignty of your soul, you end up Living in

00:12:40.279 --> 00:12:42.679
fear. So this is an interesting thing. If you've

00:12:42.679 --> 00:12:46.179
ever noticed, if you look around you, when you

00:12:46.179 --> 00:12:48.620
have a goal or a dream and you have the autonomy,

00:12:48.940 --> 00:12:52.399
you give yourself the authority to pursue that

00:12:52.399 --> 00:12:56.899
goal or the dream. Life is wonderful. Life is

00:12:56.899 --> 00:13:01.779
so exciting. I liken it to being a child. One

00:13:01.779 --> 00:13:03.600
of my first memories growing up was about flying

00:13:03.600 --> 00:13:06.740
airplanes. And I would daydream and I would do...

00:13:06.919 --> 00:13:09.720
I would read magazines. My first subscription

00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:12.700
was to Flying Magazine. And everything was exciting

00:13:12.700 --> 00:13:15.480
because I was moving towards a goal. And the

00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:18.799
world was limitless because that was my raw soul

00:13:18.799 --> 00:13:22.440
expressing itself and its desires into this earth

00:13:22.440 --> 00:13:25.039
space. I wanted to be a pilot. And for those

00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:26.720
of you who don't know, I was. I was a former

00:13:26.720 --> 00:13:30.500
military pilot. I was an instructor pilot in

00:13:30.500 --> 00:13:32.559
the military. I was a corporate pilot. I was

00:13:32.559 --> 00:13:34.799
an instructor pilot and an examiner pilot in

00:13:34.799 --> 00:13:38.100
the corporate world. And even now, if I wanted

00:13:38.100 --> 00:13:40.700
to go fly airplanes again, I could go do that

00:13:40.700 --> 00:13:45.120
as a 19 -year commercial airline captain. The

00:13:45.120 --> 00:13:47.440
reason I say that is because my dream, my goal

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:51.220
was uninhibited. The world was mine and I could

00:13:51.220 --> 00:13:53.279
go and do what I wanted to if I was willing to

00:13:53.279 --> 00:13:57.460
go get it. But now what happens is we live in

00:13:57.460 --> 00:14:00.779
a world where we've forgotten our own independence,

00:14:01.139 --> 00:14:04.419
our own sovereignty, our own... our own ability

00:14:04.419 --> 00:14:07.759
to chart our own course. And we live in this

00:14:07.759 --> 00:14:13.100
fear realm where if I go five miles too fast,

00:14:13.259 --> 00:14:18.139
am I going to get a ticket? If I pay my taxes

00:14:18.139 --> 00:14:20.600
later, if I don't pay my taxes, am I going to

00:14:20.600 --> 00:14:24.100
lose my house? Right? We have all, if I cut my

00:14:24.100 --> 00:14:28.080
neighbor's hair and my neighbor gives me $20

00:14:28.080 --> 00:14:31.440
and I'm not licensed by the state. to receive

00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:34.840
that $20 for that commercial transaction, will

00:14:34.840 --> 00:14:38.500
I be thrown in jail? Will I be fined? Will I

00:14:38.500 --> 00:14:43.559
be penalized? Those are fears based on the acceptance

00:14:43.559 --> 00:14:46.519
of systems or governances that are put around

00:14:46.519 --> 00:14:51.659
us. What I'm sharing is that when we surrender

00:14:51.659 --> 00:14:55.419
authority as a divine sovereign soul, our journey

00:14:55.419 --> 00:15:00.220
completely stalls out. And it stalls out. And

00:15:00.220 --> 00:15:03.740
we become obedient instead of moving towards

00:15:03.740 --> 00:15:08.159
our own level of personal integrity. Okay. So

00:15:08.159 --> 00:15:09.500
hopefully that makes sense to people. What I'm

00:15:09.500 --> 00:15:12.240
saying is that I'm not averse to politics. I'm

00:15:12.240 --> 00:15:14.320
not averse to governance, but it's a slippery

00:15:14.320 --> 00:15:17.779
slope because at the end of the day, we're going

00:15:17.779 --> 00:15:19.860
to go into this fear realm. We've surrendered

00:15:19.860 --> 00:15:23.240
control to everybody around us, all these governing

00:15:23.240 --> 00:15:25.200
authorities. And at the end of the day, they're

00:15:25.200 --> 00:15:28.429
going to put in places laws. so they can keep

00:15:28.429 --> 00:15:31.269
their authority, keep their control, keep their

00:15:31.269 --> 00:15:36.190
power. And if you diverge away from what they

00:15:36.190 --> 00:15:38.669
want you to do, it's going to put you in a fear

00:15:38.669 --> 00:15:41.230
realm that you're going to have to then navigate.

00:15:41.669 --> 00:15:43.450
Again, it's not a bad thing. It's part of your

00:15:43.450 --> 00:15:45.450
soul's journey. Hopefully you'll learn a lesson.

00:15:46.110 --> 00:15:48.409
Let me just go into, it's kind of an offshoot

00:15:48.409 --> 00:15:50.490
of number one, but it's the economics in money.

00:15:50.990 --> 00:15:55.769
My first principle is that money is a tool and

00:15:55.769 --> 00:15:59.899
it's... supposed to facilitate exchange represent

00:15:59.899 --> 00:16:03.740
creativity so if you're a creator and you give

00:16:03.740 --> 00:16:06.960
something of value to the world you should be

00:16:06.960 --> 00:16:08.919
able to receive benefit from that in the form

00:16:08.919 --> 00:16:12.659
of something that's going to hold its value right

00:16:12.659 --> 00:16:15.419
money is not supposed to be something that controls

00:16:15.419 --> 00:16:18.299
us money is a tool for us to use so my first

00:16:18.299 --> 00:16:21.659
principle would be that money is a tool that

00:16:21.659 --> 00:16:25.820
we use to facilitate an exchange to be compensated

00:16:25.820 --> 00:16:29.820
for our creativity, and to preserve value that

00:16:29.820 --> 00:16:31.860
we bring into the world. So this could be an

00:16:31.860 --> 00:16:34.580
interesting conversation because there's a lot

00:16:34.580 --> 00:16:37.240
of people, if they lived according to this first

00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:40.759
principle, that money is a tool, then it's going

00:16:40.759 --> 00:16:43.879
to help a lot, help us a lot as we navigate into

00:16:43.879 --> 00:16:46.659
the future. So what happens if you diverge away

00:16:46.659 --> 00:16:49.279
from this first principle? Well, the first thing

00:16:49.279 --> 00:16:52.460
that happens is currency replaces money. So people

00:16:52.460 --> 00:16:54.860
say, well, money is currency, isn't it? Isn't

00:16:54.860 --> 00:16:57.840
money currency? No, no, no. Money is a store

00:16:57.840 --> 00:17:01.480
of value. It represents a creator's contribution

00:17:01.480 --> 00:17:04.980
to the society, the world around us. Currency

00:17:04.980 --> 00:17:08.500
is not money. Currency is completely detached

00:17:08.500 --> 00:17:12.680
from what we call real value. We print money,

00:17:12.819 --> 00:17:16.700
we go to a printing press, and there's no value.

00:17:16.779 --> 00:17:19.700
In fact, when we print money, it actually takes

00:17:19.700 --> 00:17:22.859
value away from... The value that I bring to

00:17:22.859 --> 00:17:25.519
the table. Because let's just say that I create

00:17:25.519 --> 00:17:30.380
an invention. I invent a new tool for the shed

00:17:30.380 --> 00:17:33.339
or a new tool for the farm, right? It's an amazing

00:17:33.339 --> 00:17:35.779
tool and I bring value to a lot of people and

00:17:35.779 --> 00:17:39.579
I get paid money for that. Well, if somebody

00:17:39.579 --> 00:17:42.920
can go to a printing press and print, say I've

00:17:42.920 --> 00:17:46.019
made $20 ,000 for this invention, but somebody

00:17:46.019 --> 00:17:48.640
can go to the printing press and print $20 ,000

00:17:48.640 --> 00:17:52.200
for free. without bringing any value to the table,

00:17:52.319 --> 00:17:55.220
they've created currency. They haven't created

00:17:55.220 --> 00:17:57.859
any money from it. It's just currency so they

00:17:57.859 --> 00:18:00.559
can exchange, so they can get value for nothing.

00:18:01.039 --> 00:18:04.079
And what that does is it creates a debt instrument

00:18:04.079 --> 00:18:07.640
that replaces productivity. So you're actually

00:18:07.640 --> 00:18:10.339
creating a situation where you disincentivize

00:18:10.339 --> 00:18:13.099
people from being productive. If you can print

00:18:13.099 --> 00:18:15.279
money for free, why would anybody want to bring

00:18:15.279 --> 00:18:19.819
their creativity or their... their value to the

00:18:19.819 --> 00:18:23.619
table. It destroys the system. When we go down

00:18:23.619 --> 00:18:25.819
that path, basically, we're creating a financial

00:18:25.819 --> 00:18:29.380
abstraction or a derivative of sorts that actually

00:18:29.380 --> 00:18:32.480
hides the consequences of moving away from the

00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:34.259
first principle that money is a tool that stores

00:18:34.259 --> 00:18:37.240
value. External to us, you can look around us,

00:18:37.259 --> 00:18:40.660
that causes inflation, which, as I mentioned,

00:18:40.779 --> 00:18:43.039
it's the degradation of the value of the dollar

00:18:43.039 --> 00:18:45.220
that's in my pocket. Because if I had a dollar

00:18:45.220 --> 00:18:47.559
in my pocket and you just print another dollar,

00:18:48.400 --> 00:18:51.700
and those are the only $2 that exist for a certain

00:18:51.700 --> 00:18:53.680
amount of value, then my dollar in my pocket

00:18:53.680 --> 00:18:57.859
just got decreased by 50%. The value of real

00:18:57.859 --> 00:19:01.799
property then becomes less valuable, so you need

00:19:01.799 --> 00:19:06.859
more dollars, more fake currency to pay for the

00:19:06.859 --> 00:19:10.319
same commodity. So we've seen this before. People

00:19:10.319 --> 00:19:11.960
always say, well, when I was a kid, a gallon

00:19:11.960 --> 00:19:17.420
of gas was $0 .25, and now it's $4, $5, $6. Well,

00:19:17.440 --> 00:19:21.299
the gas is not worth any more. The gas is still

00:19:21.299 --> 00:19:24.539
the same gas. It's just the value of your dollar

00:19:24.539 --> 00:19:30.200
is degraded by 80%, 90%, 95%, 97%. When we took

00:19:30.200 --> 00:19:32.940
ourselves off in 1933 off the precious metal

00:19:32.940 --> 00:19:35.539
standard, and then the government took our gold,

00:19:35.599 --> 00:19:40.319
took our silver, 1971, we lost our dollar was

00:19:40.319 --> 00:19:43.380
completely severed and separated from the precious

00:19:43.380 --> 00:19:46.420
metal currency. We had all this inflation. Inflation

00:19:46.420 --> 00:19:48.920
became a problem. So there was a disconnection

00:19:48.920 --> 00:19:52.200
there. This creates instability. It also creates,

00:19:52.339 --> 00:19:54.940
at a financial level, it creates the situation

00:19:54.940 --> 00:19:58.359
where there's derivative markets and things that

00:19:58.359 --> 00:20:02.240
can manipulate value. So in other words, when

00:20:02.240 --> 00:20:05.579
you disconnect value from money and you use currency

00:20:05.579 --> 00:20:09.099
in place of money, real money, what happens is

00:20:09.099 --> 00:20:12.059
you can actually create derivatives from it.

00:20:12.140 --> 00:20:14.720
Like you can't take... If you're using real money,

00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.980
if I have a bar of gold or a bar of silver, you

00:20:17.980 --> 00:20:21.039
can't create more gold or silver from that. You

00:20:21.039 --> 00:20:22.940
can cut it in half and have two pieces, but it's

00:20:22.940 --> 00:20:25.859
still the same amount of gold or silver. With

00:20:25.859 --> 00:20:27.599
dollars, if you keep printing, printing, printing

00:20:27.599 --> 00:20:31.319
dollars, eventually you can create derivatives.

00:20:31.319 --> 00:20:35.660
You can create paper that represents real value.

00:20:36.869 --> 00:20:39.990
but it's not the real value itself. And by doing

00:20:39.990 --> 00:20:42.430
that, you create instability, not only for yourself,

00:20:42.609 --> 00:20:44.809
but also for generations. What does this mean

00:20:44.809 --> 00:20:46.990
to our souls? I know I'm talking so much, but

00:20:46.990 --> 00:20:48.970
this is so relevant. What does this actually

00:20:48.970 --> 00:20:51.109
mean to our souls? A lot of us are running around.

00:20:51.210 --> 00:20:53.470
This is a real big issue, okay? I'm going to

00:20:53.470 --> 00:20:56.650
take a swig of water here because I'm not AI.

00:20:56.890 --> 00:21:02.789
This is not an AI -generated program. What does

00:21:02.789 --> 00:21:07.160
this mean if... my work my creativity my inventions

00:21:07.160 --> 00:21:10.480
the thing the value I bring to the world what

00:21:10.480 --> 00:21:14.279
if we diverge from the principle that I should

00:21:14.279 --> 00:21:16.400
be paid for my creativity and my value that I

00:21:16.400 --> 00:21:21.519
bring to the to the world well inside of me my

00:21:21.519 --> 00:21:25.779
self -worth I've externalized it and that makes

00:21:25.779 --> 00:21:29.599
me it degrades my own self my self -worth goes

00:21:29.599 --> 00:21:32.440
down. This is why, and we're going to get to

00:21:32.440 --> 00:21:34.740
this a little bit. I think I made some notes

00:21:34.740 --> 00:21:37.279
here. This is all unscripted, but still I did

00:21:37.279 --> 00:21:39.880
make some notes, but it makes me imagine like

00:21:39.880 --> 00:21:43.380
when we're in school, say you have 30 kids in

00:21:43.380 --> 00:21:45.220
school. Well, you're going to have two or three

00:21:45.220 --> 00:21:47.240
of us that are at the leading part of the pack.

00:21:47.380 --> 00:21:49.160
You know, we're the fastest with math. We're

00:21:49.160 --> 00:21:52.480
the best with math and science. We're good athletes.

00:21:52.779 --> 00:21:54.900
Some of us are at the tail end, like we're the

00:21:54.900 --> 00:21:57.279
slowest people or we have, we don't learn as

00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.730
quickly. We don't memorize. We don't do our math

00:21:59.730 --> 00:22:01.349
tables. We don't do our alphabet as quickly.

00:22:01.730 --> 00:22:05.009
Those are all external to ourselves. None of

00:22:05.009 --> 00:22:08.529
those things really matter internally, but I'm

00:22:08.529 --> 00:22:11.170
using that as an example of some of the things

00:22:11.170 --> 00:22:14.750
we can do as an example of how we kind of get

00:22:14.750 --> 00:22:19.029
misled away from who we are and what the core

00:22:19.029 --> 00:22:22.829
value is of our souls. So we've all heard of

00:22:22.829 --> 00:22:26.269
like starving artists, right? If an artist creates

00:22:26.269 --> 00:22:31.390
something, that artwork if it brings value to

00:22:31.390 --> 00:22:34.950
the world around them then they will get paid

00:22:34.950 --> 00:22:38.450
for it if they're not getting paid for it that

00:22:38.450 --> 00:22:40.750
means they're not bringing value to the world

00:22:40.750 --> 00:22:43.250
around them that's just the economic part of

00:22:43.250 --> 00:22:47.849
it however it doesn't degrade who they are as

00:22:47.849 --> 00:22:51.130
a beautiful soul as a divine soul it just means

00:22:51.130 --> 00:22:54.549
that external to them what they're doing is not

00:22:54.549 --> 00:22:56.990
bringing enough value to the world around them.

00:22:57.029 --> 00:23:00.410
They might need to think about doing some other

00:23:00.410 --> 00:23:04.029
things that will bring, that'll use their skills

00:23:04.029 --> 00:23:07.509
to bring value to the world around them. So oftentimes

00:23:07.509 --> 00:23:09.809
though, the way the system's set up and we've

00:23:09.809 --> 00:23:12.769
moved away from sound money, what happens is

00:23:12.769 --> 00:23:16.650
the people who are not getting rewarded with

00:23:16.650 --> 00:23:20.470
quote money, which is not money, it's currency,

00:23:20.630 --> 00:23:24.890
what's happening is they're ending up not feeling

00:23:24.890 --> 00:23:29.549
the self -worth. They feel anxious, right? Because

00:23:29.549 --> 00:23:35.410
they feel this compulsion to go after this currency,

00:23:35.789 --> 00:23:39.470
these dollars that don't represent value externally

00:23:39.470 --> 00:23:43.450
and they don't, by association, they don't affect

00:23:43.450 --> 00:23:47.029
the value of you internally. So this is a really

00:23:47.029 --> 00:23:50.490
big deal because so many people out there, oh,

00:23:50.549 --> 00:23:53.420
I'm worthless because I'm not making money. Nobody's

00:23:53.420 --> 00:23:56.180
making money. They're making dollars. Dollars

00:23:56.180 --> 00:23:59.480
is not money. Money holds value. Dollars don't

00:23:59.480 --> 00:24:03.599
hold value. They inflate. There's a lot of anxiety.

00:24:03.980 --> 00:24:07.339
A lot of people are anxious because they're connecting

00:24:07.339 --> 00:24:11.319
their own self -worth to how many dollars or

00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:13.839
how few dollars they make. I mean, the opposite

00:24:13.839 --> 00:24:17.640
is true too. There's a lot of people, oh, I trade

00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:21.039
paper on Wall Street. Okay, what value are you

00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:24.319
adding to the world around you? Really? So they're

00:24:24.319 --> 00:24:26.140
getting paid lots and lots and lots of currency

00:24:26.140 --> 00:24:29.720
for not adding value. So that's the other side

00:24:29.720 --> 00:24:33.279
where they're bringing no value to the real people.

00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:36.400
They're basically bringing no value and they're

00:24:36.400 --> 00:24:39.720
getting paid tons of currency to buy real things

00:24:39.720 --> 00:24:42.819
with. It's a kind of a messed up system. Why?

00:24:43.299 --> 00:24:47.460
Because we removed ourselves from a first principle.

00:24:47.950 --> 00:24:50.690
The first principle is understanding the difference

00:24:50.690 --> 00:24:53.710
between money and currency. Sometimes currency

00:24:53.710 --> 00:24:57.630
is called fiat money, which is state -issued

00:24:57.630 --> 00:25:02.049
or privately -issued money. The last thing would

00:25:02.049 --> 00:25:06.309
be that when you squelch creativity, when you

00:25:06.309 --> 00:25:09.150
remove the incentive for people, whether they're

00:25:09.150 --> 00:25:13.049
entrepreneurs or creators, if they're bringing

00:25:13.049 --> 00:25:16.190
value to the system and they're not getting paid

00:25:16.190 --> 00:25:20.700
value back, this completely collapses any incentives

00:25:20.700 --> 00:25:24.119
to create in the future. There's like no reward

00:25:24.119 --> 00:25:27.500
mechanism. This first principle, again, stands

00:25:27.500 --> 00:25:31.400
its ground because if you're a creator or an

00:25:31.400 --> 00:25:35.660
inventor, an entrepreneur, you must go back down

00:25:35.660 --> 00:25:38.680
to this first principle, which says money is

00:25:38.680 --> 00:25:42.799
a tool. It should represent value. So the bottom

00:25:42.799 --> 00:25:46.109
line with this whole money thing is that... If

00:25:46.109 --> 00:25:49.890
we don't understand what money is and the lie

00:25:49.890 --> 00:25:52.650
that we call currency or fiat currency, we go

00:25:52.650 --> 00:25:54.690
into this compliance mode where we're slaves.

00:25:54.789 --> 00:25:58.650
We feel terrible about ourselves. We trade meaning

00:25:58.650 --> 00:26:02.349
for safety. Like we just want to exist and we

00:26:02.349 --> 00:26:04.509
want to feel like we're worth something. And

00:26:04.509 --> 00:26:06.930
we basically forget the essence of our own self,

00:26:07.029 --> 00:26:09.710
which is the creative nature of ourselves. Well,

00:26:09.829 --> 00:26:12.009
that's a lot of talking, but I hope you understand.

00:26:12.940 --> 00:26:15.700
what what value it is i shouldn't i should point

00:26:15.700 --> 00:26:18.099
out also that the idea what you know like what

00:26:18.099 --> 00:26:20.640
is a first principle well it's something that

00:26:20.640 --> 00:26:23.980
withstands questions all the way down to the

00:26:23.980 --> 00:26:26.279
root level so think of it like looking inside

00:26:26.279 --> 00:26:30.099
of like if i look at an onion skin i could look

00:26:30.099 --> 00:26:31.799
at and see an onion skin but if i look under

00:26:31.799 --> 00:26:34.200
the magnifying glass and i dig deeper and deeper

00:26:34.200 --> 00:26:36.380
and deeper and deeper at some point i'm going

00:26:36.380 --> 00:26:39.380
to get to this foundational element so i can

00:26:39.380 --> 00:26:42.119
best understand the entire onion by understanding

00:26:42.890 --> 00:26:47.190
the basic element of what the onion is made of

00:26:47.190 --> 00:26:49.589
and how that basic element works with all of

00:26:49.589 --> 00:26:52.930
the other parts of the onion. So that's a lot.

00:26:53.329 --> 00:26:57.109
So the next first principle that I kind of wrote

00:26:57.109 --> 00:26:59.789
down on my note here was that, and this is really

00:26:59.789 --> 00:27:01.890
relevant to me because for those of you who don't

00:27:01.890 --> 00:27:04.349
know me, I'm a doctor of holistic natural health

00:27:04.349 --> 00:27:09.329
and nutrition. As a holistic doctor, I don't

00:27:09.329 --> 00:27:12.680
look at people as the sum of their parts. I look

00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:15.960
at an individual as this beautiful divine manifestation

00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:20.279
of all sorts of things that we see and also things

00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:24.039
that we don't see and we don't perceive. So it's

00:27:24.039 --> 00:27:26.619
a very holistic way of looking at a person. Sometimes

00:27:26.619 --> 00:27:31.000
if a body is not functioning properly, one of

00:27:31.000 --> 00:27:33.960
the first questions I ask is, number one, who

00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:36.480
are you and why are you here? They're going to

00:27:36.480 --> 00:27:39.150
give me the earth answer. I'm overweight. I've

00:27:39.150 --> 00:27:41.049
got to drop the weight. But also, I'm going to

00:27:41.049 --> 00:27:43.509
dive into the spiritual answer. Do you have a

00:27:43.509 --> 00:27:45.890
soul? Is it on a journey? What's that journey

00:27:45.890 --> 00:27:49.130
about? Because it's all connected. You're going

00:27:49.130 --> 00:27:52.250
to find that, at least in my world, if somebody

00:27:52.250 --> 00:27:55.650
is not following first principles, like the first

00:27:55.650 --> 00:27:57.750
two, like the one I just covered with the money,

00:27:57.910 --> 00:28:00.849
if they're not following first principles and

00:28:00.849 --> 00:28:05.930
they end up feeling like a failure, for years

00:28:05.930 --> 00:28:07.950
and years and years, and they never dig deeper,

00:28:08.029 --> 00:28:10.710
they never go down and root down to the first

00:28:10.710 --> 00:28:12.710
principles of who they are, why they're here,

00:28:12.869 --> 00:28:15.970
what's this journey about, what is this government

00:28:15.970 --> 00:28:19.109
about, what is money, what is money not, if they

00:28:19.109 --> 00:28:21.990
don't root down to those first principles, they're

00:28:21.990 --> 00:28:23.769
going to end up feeling like crap, they're going

00:28:23.769 --> 00:28:25.829
to judge themselves, they're going to end up

00:28:25.829 --> 00:28:30.069
with this funkiness, feeling like a failure instead

00:28:30.069 --> 00:28:33.230
of feeling like a divine, beautiful, sovereign

00:28:33.230 --> 00:28:37.000
spirit. That's here for a purpose. And what happens

00:28:37.000 --> 00:28:41.559
then is they end up with this catatonic condition

00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:45.519
where their systems start to shut down. Like

00:28:45.519 --> 00:28:47.380
if they're under stress, chronic stress, because

00:28:47.380 --> 00:28:49.400
they feel like they're a failure and they're

00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:52.900
constantly reinforcing that failure feeling,

00:28:53.259 --> 00:28:56.160
there's no surprise that their systems are going

00:28:56.160 --> 00:28:58.880
to shut down. Their gut, their digestion, their

00:28:58.880 --> 00:29:03.130
brain. Their desire to seek novelty, to knock,

00:29:03.329 --> 00:29:06.789
to seek, to ask, to jump, to run, to play, to

00:29:06.789 --> 00:29:09.329
exercise. Like those things are going to disappear.

00:29:09.710 --> 00:29:12.390
And those are all critical parts of health. So

00:29:12.390 --> 00:29:16.109
with respect to health and medicine, your body

00:29:16.109 --> 00:29:19.470
is intelligent. It's beautiful. It's self -regulating.

00:29:19.609 --> 00:29:24.069
It's self -balancing. But it's also an integral

00:29:24.069 --> 00:29:27.250
part of your soul's journey. Everything your

00:29:27.250 --> 00:29:30.900
soul experiences. touches your body and everything

00:29:30.900 --> 00:29:34.000
your body experiences touches your soul right

00:29:34.000 --> 00:29:37.359
that's a first principle why do i say it's first

00:29:37.359 --> 00:29:39.880
principle because i cannot reduce that any further

00:29:39.880 --> 00:29:44.019
than it is it can't be and it can't not be at

00:29:44.019 --> 00:29:47.039
the same time so that's this is my first principle

00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:49.880
so what happens and i'll go through this a little

00:29:49.880 --> 00:29:51.599
bit more quickly but because i think i made a

00:29:51.599 --> 00:29:53.180
good point of it when you look around you the

00:29:53.180 --> 00:29:56.099
modern failure it shows up as people treating

00:29:56.099 --> 00:30:01.200
symptoms as if the symptoms the enemy right you

00:30:01.200 --> 00:30:05.460
go to the like a modern medical system they don't

00:30:05.460 --> 00:30:08.680
they don't get paid to solve your problem they

00:30:08.680 --> 00:30:12.079
get paid to deploy some sort of a process or

00:30:12.079 --> 00:30:14.559
a procedure or take a lab test they're looking

00:30:14.559 --> 00:30:17.480
at symptoms and they're they're targeting symptoms

00:30:17.480 --> 00:30:19.299
and they're treating those as the enemies instead

00:30:19.299 --> 00:30:22.339
of the underlying health so what happens when

00:30:22.339 --> 00:30:25.559
you go down that path is When you separate your

00:30:25.559 --> 00:30:28.299
body from your mind and your soul and you separate

00:30:28.299 --> 00:30:33.160
your body into the sum of its parts, you're actually

00:30:33.160 --> 00:30:37.579
suppressing understanding of your own self. And

00:30:37.579 --> 00:30:40.400
your body becomes relegated to that of a machine.

00:30:40.779 --> 00:30:42.980
This is one of the things early on when I was

00:30:42.980 --> 00:30:45.460
getting my master's degree. We studied stuff

00:30:45.460 --> 00:30:48.519
that doctors used to teach like 200 and 300 years

00:30:48.519 --> 00:30:52.130
ago. This whole idea of... You know, you look

00:30:52.130 --> 00:30:54.769
at the back of a package and there's how much

00:30:54.769 --> 00:30:56.930
fat, how many calories, you know, what are the

00:30:56.930 --> 00:31:00.150
macronutrients? You know, the idea that we need

00:31:00.150 --> 00:31:03.170
so many calories. It's true. We do need calories,

00:31:03.309 --> 00:31:06.490
but it's not the entire truth. But they want

00:31:06.490 --> 00:31:08.230
to put it out there like calories is the only

00:31:08.230 --> 00:31:10.470
thing you need to be thinking about. But it's

00:31:10.470 --> 00:31:13.049
not true. What they're doing is they're reducing

00:31:13.049 --> 00:31:17.170
us to that. Our body is a machine that burns

00:31:17.170 --> 00:31:19.289
calories. I mean, that's what they want you to

00:31:19.289 --> 00:31:22.460
believe. Your body is just a machine. If the

00:31:22.460 --> 00:31:24.839
machine's broken, we need to lubricate the joint,

00:31:24.960 --> 00:31:27.019
right? Or we need to replace the joint and put

00:31:27.019 --> 00:31:30.220
a new joint in. And that's not true. Your body

00:31:30.220 --> 00:31:33.380
is so much more than that by ignoring the first

00:31:33.380 --> 00:31:35.880
principle that our body is beautiful, integral,

00:31:36.079 --> 00:31:39.900
self -regulating, self -balancing. And we say,

00:31:39.920 --> 00:31:42.619
oh my goodness, you must have your gallbladder

00:31:42.619 --> 00:31:45.279
removed because it's broken or your thyroid's

00:31:45.279 --> 00:31:48.380
broken and you never address the underlying stress.

00:31:48.920 --> 00:31:51.279
or that you eat too many dead animals, or you

00:31:51.279 --> 00:31:53.619
have other things going on in your life, you

00:31:53.619 --> 00:31:56.460
just lost your spouse. If you never address those

00:31:56.460 --> 00:31:59.980
things, then you're going to succumb to the errors

00:31:59.980 --> 00:32:03.420
of the modern system that's been lost to these

00:32:03.420 --> 00:32:07.180
first principles. External to yourself, it's

00:32:07.180 --> 00:32:09.200
going to manifest, like I said, in chronic disease.

00:32:09.720 --> 00:32:12.680
You're going to have dependencies your whole

00:32:12.680 --> 00:32:16.859
life because everything outside of you is dictating.

00:32:17.279 --> 00:32:19.140
who you are and what you do. So in other words,

00:32:19.160 --> 00:32:23.000
is the world subject to you or are you subject

00:32:23.000 --> 00:32:26.359
to the world? Well, the answer is both. It's

00:32:26.359 --> 00:32:29.339
a little bit of both, but so many people, they've

00:32:29.339 --> 00:32:31.039
just, they throw in the cards and they're like,

00:32:31.099 --> 00:32:34.180
it's a, it's a despondency where it's just like,

00:32:34.200 --> 00:32:36.799
they, they just throw up their hands. It's like,

00:32:36.839 --> 00:32:39.039
why can't do anything? I'm just going to surrender.

00:32:39.460 --> 00:32:42.299
And they become completely dependent. You know,

00:32:42.299 --> 00:32:44.359
as grown up, they'd say, well, your doctor would

00:32:44.359 --> 00:32:47.299
say, well, get another opinion, get a second

00:32:47.299 --> 00:32:50.839
opinion, right? So 50 years ago, it was like,

00:32:50.900 --> 00:32:54.839
get a second opinion. Now it's like, I'm the

00:32:54.839 --> 00:32:56.759
medical doctor, I'm the expert, you should trust

00:32:56.759 --> 00:32:59.859
me. And they get all upset if you're going to

00:32:59.859 --> 00:33:02.160
get a second opinion or if you actually bring

00:33:02.160 --> 00:33:05.940
things to the table. So those of us that push

00:33:05.940 --> 00:33:08.160
back against this idea that we're just a machine,

00:33:08.259 --> 00:33:12.519
we get, gosh, you know, a lot of blowback from

00:33:12.519 --> 00:33:15.890
doing that. And over time, when you get enough

00:33:15.890 --> 00:33:17.910
pushback from all your friends, your family,

00:33:17.970 --> 00:33:21.329
your neighbors, it can become very, very difficult.

00:33:21.609 --> 00:33:25.750
And your resilience can decline. It takes a lot

00:33:25.750 --> 00:33:31.170
out of people to be strong and understand that

00:33:31.170 --> 00:33:34.069
you are beautiful and you're powerful and you're

00:33:34.069 --> 00:33:36.769
free. And there's nobody in the medical system

00:33:36.769 --> 00:33:39.269
that's going to tell you otherwise. That's a

00:33:39.269 --> 00:33:42.029
major external failure in the medical, in the

00:33:42.029 --> 00:33:44.779
health and medical world. What does this mean

00:33:44.779 --> 00:33:48.299
to our souls? I get a soul level. If my soul

00:33:48.299 --> 00:33:51.980
is different than my body or it's disconnected,

00:33:52.299 --> 00:33:56.119
then that leads to a lot of things. It's a loss

00:33:56.119 --> 00:33:58.819
of self -trust. I don't share this with many

00:33:58.819 --> 00:34:00.359
people, so here I'm sharing it with the world.

00:34:00.420 --> 00:34:03.259
But the VA told me, the Veterans Administration

00:34:03.259 --> 00:34:06.500
told me like, whatever, 15 years ago that I had

00:34:06.500 --> 00:34:09.579
lupus. And I had to go for some other tests.

00:34:09.659 --> 00:34:11.300
And I told them, I said, well, I think you're

00:34:11.300 --> 00:34:13.969
thinking of somebody else. How long before I

00:34:13.969 --> 00:34:15.449
have to go through other tests? They said, well,

00:34:15.550 --> 00:34:17.530
you know, six weeks or so we'll get you in for

00:34:17.530 --> 00:34:20.010
this advanced testing and stuff. I said, well,

00:34:20.030 --> 00:34:21.630
before you do the advanced testing, I want you

00:34:21.630 --> 00:34:23.789
to check my blood work again. And they're like,

00:34:23.869 --> 00:34:26.530
well, Captain, why would we do that? I said,

00:34:26.570 --> 00:34:30.309
well, because I don't have lupus. I'm going to

00:34:30.309 --> 00:34:33.050
take care of that condition. It's a symptom that

00:34:33.050 --> 00:34:37.550
you're calling a problem and I'm calling it something

00:34:37.550 --> 00:34:42.730
that I can change. So I did several things. one

00:34:42.730 --> 00:34:44.949
of which was I stopped all meat and dairy. I

00:34:44.949 --> 00:34:47.389
just stopped eating meat and dairy. Took lots

00:34:47.389 --> 00:34:50.090
of vitamin C, fresh air, sunshine, exercise,

00:34:50.409 --> 00:34:52.690
a bunch of stuff that I was doing anyway, but

00:34:52.690 --> 00:34:54.949
I upped it. Prayer and meditation, those things.

00:34:55.190 --> 00:35:00.190
The bottom line is that I demonstrated the connection

00:35:00.190 --> 00:35:03.789
between my soul, my intention, my goal, my dream,

00:35:03.889 --> 00:35:07.210
my spirit, and the outcome because I went back

00:35:07.210 --> 00:35:09.369
to the VA, they checked my blood, and they said

00:35:09.369 --> 00:35:12.000
I was free to go. They couldn't find any evidence

00:35:12.000 --> 00:35:15.400
whatsoever that I had lupus. So again, there

00:35:15.400 --> 00:35:19.500
was nothing external to myself. There was a decision

00:35:19.500 --> 00:35:22.960
and there was me being beautiful, powerful, and

00:35:22.960 --> 00:35:25.519
free, right? This is where we want to go. We

00:35:25.519 --> 00:35:29.780
want to trust ourselves and not be subject to

00:35:29.780 --> 00:35:32.940
some person in a white lab coat that drapes a

00:35:32.940 --> 00:35:36.139
stethoscope across their neck. That's not trusting

00:35:36.139 --> 00:35:40.019
yourself. Trusting yourself says, Look, I'm going

00:35:40.019 --> 00:35:42.300
to take care of my body. I'm going to drink clean

00:35:42.300 --> 00:35:45.320
water, eat clean food. I'm going to get lots

00:35:45.320 --> 00:35:48.039
of hugs and kisses. If you believe in a creator,

00:35:48.219 --> 00:35:51.719
connect to that creator. If you don't, then connect

00:35:51.719 --> 00:35:53.659
to the earth, connect to the people around you.

00:35:54.420 --> 00:35:57.920
Don't not connect, but make those connections

00:35:57.920 --> 00:36:00.420
and learn to trust yourself, okay? That's your

00:36:00.420 --> 00:36:03.860
soul's experience. Your soul experience, your

00:36:03.860 --> 00:36:06.460
body is not hostile. Your body is not fighting

00:36:06.460 --> 00:36:09.260
you. It's not failing you. People, I've flown

00:36:09.260 --> 00:36:12.619
some really, really cool airplanes. I've flown

00:36:12.619 --> 00:36:15.579
worldwide. I've been to 50 countries. There's

00:36:15.579 --> 00:36:17.679
some cool airplanes. I've been supersonic. I've

00:36:17.679 --> 00:36:21.019
flown with zero visibility of landed airplanes.

00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:23.719
There's some really cool airplanes out there.

00:36:23.920 --> 00:36:27.480
I've got seven type ratings. What you have with

00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:32.199
your body, your body is so much better than any

00:36:32.199 --> 00:36:34.820
airplane I've ever flown. You are beautiful and

00:36:34.820 --> 00:36:37.719
powerful. I've never had an airplane. that I

00:36:37.719 --> 00:36:40.860
could scratch the surface and it would heal itself.

00:36:41.579 --> 00:36:43.579
I've never had an airplane that could make its

00:36:43.579 --> 00:36:47.300
own decisions based on morality. Yeah, there's

00:36:47.300 --> 00:36:49.840
some cool airplanes, but you're so much better.

00:36:50.000 --> 00:36:52.300
You're so much more awesome than any airplane

00:36:52.300 --> 00:36:55.599
out there. Don't look at yourself as a machine.

00:36:55.619 --> 00:36:59.159
You're so much more. Don't lose self -trust and

00:36:59.159 --> 00:37:01.760
don't look at your body as hostile to you. It's

00:37:01.760 --> 00:37:04.860
a beautiful avatar that represents you in this

00:37:04.860 --> 00:37:08.070
earth space. Your body is helping you navigate

00:37:08.070 --> 00:37:11.329
through this earth space to give you amazing

00:37:11.329 --> 00:37:15.809
experiences. So give gratitude for your body.

00:37:15.989 --> 00:37:18.510
Treat it with love and kindness and gentleness

00:37:18.510 --> 00:37:22.010
and respect. You're going to want to increase

00:37:22.010 --> 00:37:26.150
your sensitivity, increase your awareness, increase

00:37:26.150 --> 00:37:30.210
your body's ability to sense things, to perceive,

00:37:30.389 --> 00:37:34.670
to be empathetic, to be caring. Increase those

00:37:34.670 --> 00:37:39.500
things. Don't let your intuition dull. Don't

00:37:39.500 --> 00:37:43.599
become callous. Don't protect yourself from being

00:37:43.599 --> 00:37:47.159
hurt. Like, you know, oh, somebody called me

00:37:47.159 --> 00:37:51.039
a bad name. Do you believe you're that bad name?

00:37:51.900 --> 00:37:54.900
No, I don't. I did this with my kids. My son

00:37:54.900 --> 00:37:57.599
John was like, came in crying. He's like, Tim,

00:37:57.619 --> 00:38:00.980
you said I'm a stupid idiot. I said, well, John,

00:38:01.039 --> 00:38:04.400
are you a stupid idiot? No. He's like, well.

00:38:04.960 --> 00:38:07.380
Why are you worried? You know yourself better

00:38:07.380 --> 00:38:10.880
than he knows you, right? Yeah. Are you a stupid

00:38:10.880 --> 00:38:15.840
idiot? No, I'm smart. Good. Then don't worry

00:38:15.840 --> 00:38:19.940
about what Tim said, right? And so this is what

00:38:19.940 --> 00:38:22.280
I taught my children when they were young. You

00:38:22.280 --> 00:38:24.780
know yourself better than other people know you,

00:38:24.840 --> 00:38:27.440
so go with that. The bottom line on the health

00:38:27.440 --> 00:38:30.039
and medicine, health and medical system, if you

00:38:30.039 --> 00:38:33.530
will, your soul, to have its... full and proper

00:38:33.530 --> 00:38:36.969
journey through this earth space cannot be silenced

00:38:36.969 --> 00:38:40.309
by the institutions around you. You have to listen

00:38:40.309 --> 00:38:43.190
to it and you have to get your soul and your

00:38:43.190 --> 00:38:46.250
body to work together. You have to appreciate

00:38:46.250 --> 00:38:48.469
those connections, okay? All right, education.

00:38:49.530 --> 00:38:52.210
I can still read my notes. This is cool. By the

00:38:52.210 --> 00:38:54.329
way, this is contemporaneous. I just have these

00:38:54.329 --> 00:38:56.150
little bullet points that I'm just trying to,

00:38:56.170 --> 00:38:58.670
so I don't get too far off into the weeds. So

00:38:58.670 --> 00:39:01.699
education, this is a big deal. I liken our current

00:39:01.699 --> 00:39:06.239
modern day education system to a prison, all

00:39:06.239 --> 00:39:07.980
right? And you can argue with me all you want.

00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:10.900
And I went through the public school system.

00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:14.000
So I'm in a position to tell you, I went through

00:39:14.000 --> 00:39:15.500
public schools. I went to the Air Force Academy.

00:39:15.699 --> 00:39:20.099
I did the entire gambit of public schools, okay?

00:39:20.539 --> 00:39:24.300
Now, the Air Force Academy, I went to expecting

00:39:24.300 --> 00:39:27.019
them to tell me to sit down and shut up and listen

00:39:27.019 --> 00:39:29.630
because that's part of the program. But when

00:39:29.630 --> 00:39:32.570
you tell a five -year -old, six, seven, eight,

00:39:32.630 --> 00:39:38.110
your whole elementary school experience, sit

00:39:38.110 --> 00:39:41.230
down, shut up, cows are not purple, stay in the

00:39:41.230 --> 00:39:44.269
lines, I don't care if you have to pee, you wait

00:39:44.269 --> 00:39:47.570
to the bell, don't talk when I'm speaking to

00:39:47.570 --> 00:39:51.369
you, you'll talk to me when I ask you a question.

00:39:52.389 --> 00:39:54.570
To me, that looks and feels a lot like prison.

00:39:55.840 --> 00:39:58.260
Even the buses that they drive, that looks a

00:39:58.260 --> 00:40:01.320
lot like prison. Here's my first principle when

00:40:01.320 --> 00:40:06.300
it comes to education. Education, not just the

00:40:06.300 --> 00:40:08.480
education system. I'm talking about your soul

00:40:08.480 --> 00:40:12.440
and your journey through this earth space. Education

00:40:12.440 --> 00:40:19.539
exists for you to cultivate discernment, to express

00:40:19.539 --> 00:40:22.039
curiosity. Remember, we're told to knock, seek,

00:40:22.039 --> 00:40:27.800
and ask, right? To be curious. and to foment

00:40:27.800 --> 00:40:32.679
or develop independent reasoning. This is a really

00:40:32.679 --> 00:40:34.440
big deal. I'm going to actually do another episode

00:40:34.440 --> 00:40:37.619
about this in the future because we've lost our

00:40:37.619 --> 00:40:41.000
capability to use intuition, to be critical thinkers,

00:40:41.260 --> 00:40:44.380
to not get our feelings hurt when we're wrong.

00:40:44.880 --> 00:40:48.539
We've lost our ability to reason. These are going

00:40:48.539 --> 00:40:50.920
to be things we talk about in the future. So

00:40:50.920 --> 00:40:53.059
let's talk a little bit about what happens when

00:40:53.059 --> 00:40:56.699
the education system fails. What's it look like?

00:40:56.960 --> 00:40:59.360
And you can look around you. You'll see this.

00:40:59.579 --> 00:41:01.579
I'm going to just tell you right now, I have

00:41:01.579 --> 00:41:03.719
a PhD in holistic natural health and nutrition.

00:41:05.119 --> 00:41:09.320
To me, it means nothing. It means absolutely

00:41:09.320 --> 00:41:13.639
zero. People ask me, it's like, well, aren't

00:41:13.639 --> 00:41:16.940
you the expert? I'm like, please stop. I'm not

00:41:16.940 --> 00:41:20.699
the expert at anything. The only thing I'm really,

00:41:21.260 --> 00:41:24.659
really good at is being a student. and asking

00:41:24.659 --> 00:41:28.539
questions. I'm really good at those things. And

00:41:28.539 --> 00:41:30.199
if you actually look at the scientific method,

00:41:30.320 --> 00:41:36.059
the very first spot, the very first square in

00:41:36.059 --> 00:41:39.039
the scientific method, the starting place, is

00:41:39.039 --> 00:41:42.639
to observe the world around you and to ask questions.

00:41:43.659 --> 00:41:47.460
Every single model of the scientific methodology

00:41:47.460 --> 00:41:51.179
starts with asking questions, observing the world

00:41:51.179 --> 00:41:54.929
around you, and asking questions. So many of

00:41:54.929 --> 00:41:57.409
us, they go into the scientific model with a

00:41:57.409 --> 00:42:00.010
conclusion and they work the whole thing backwards.

00:42:00.349 --> 00:42:02.730
They justify why they believe the way they do

00:42:02.730 --> 00:42:04.969
and they work the whole thing absolutely backwards.

00:42:05.550 --> 00:42:08.150
It's not the way it works. The first principle

00:42:08.150 --> 00:42:11.630
involves us being curious. It involves us being

00:42:11.630 --> 00:42:15.590
discerning and just going out there and just

00:42:15.590 --> 00:42:18.050
being children. You know, knocking, seeking and

00:42:18.050 --> 00:42:20.369
asking is what I like to say. The reason I bring

00:42:20.369 --> 00:42:22.269
up my PhD is because it means nothing to me.

00:42:22.679 --> 00:42:25.659
We're in this place where a PhD is a credential.

00:42:26.699 --> 00:42:31.539
It has nothing to do with wisdom. There are children

00:42:31.539 --> 00:42:36.000
that are homeschooled that are wiser than people

00:42:36.000 --> 00:42:39.980
I know that have two and three PhDs. The credential

00:42:39.980 --> 00:42:45.900
means nothing. You can ask fifth graders basic

00:42:45.900 --> 00:42:49.250
things about basic civility. Simple things about

00:42:49.250 --> 00:42:51.829
how you run your farm or your home or your garage

00:42:51.829 --> 00:42:54.710
or your business. Simple things. If you listen

00:42:54.710 --> 00:42:58.929
to their innate, on -board wisdom, the wisdom

00:42:58.929 --> 00:43:03.010
of youth, you'll find that many of them are smarter

00:43:03.010 --> 00:43:05.909
than adults because adults have stopped learning

00:43:05.909 --> 00:43:08.929
how to question things and how to approach the

00:43:08.929 --> 00:43:14.309
world. So credentialism is really overused. Do

00:43:14.309 --> 00:43:16.650
not trust the experts. The experts are going

00:43:16.650 --> 00:43:19.170
to put forth ideology. They're going to give,

00:43:19.389 --> 00:43:22.389
they're going to put forth dogma and ideology

00:43:22.389 --> 00:43:25.769
in place of inquiry. They're going to tell you

00:43:25.769 --> 00:43:29.070
to not ask questions. I mean, I've been censored

00:43:29.070 --> 00:43:32.610
by so many platforms. It's crazy. Why? Because

00:43:32.610 --> 00:43:36.389
I ask questions, too many questions. Even as

00:43:36.389 --> 00:43:39.190
an adult, sit down, shut up. Don't ask questions.

00:43:39.190 --> 00:43:42.730
Stay in the lines. Nothing's changed. The other

00:43:42.730 --> 00:43:46.300
thing is people marvel. A lot of my clients,

00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:49.500
they come to me and it's like, you speak so differently

00:43:49.500 --> 00:43:52.280
than the other doctors. Well, that's because

00:43:52.280 --> 00:43:55.360
I'm coming to you as a friend. I want to help

00:43:55.360 --> 00:43:58.039
you with your actual core problem. It doesn't

00:43:58.039 --> 00:43:59.960
matter what my degree is. I want to just help

00:43:59.960 --> 00:44:02.860
you. And if the medical system, the education

00:44:02.860 --> 00:44:05.079
system did that more, then we'd be at a different

00:44:05.079 --> 00:44:10.099
place. A lot of my doctor friends, they go through

00:44:10.099 --> 00:44:12.639
years and years and years of school to memorize

00:44:12.639 --> 00:44:17.579
body parts. procedures, techniques. And I'm not

00:44:17.579 --> 00:44:20.440
saying that those are not valuable, but that's

00:44:20.440 --> 00:44:22.940
not what makes them smart. That means that they're

00:44:22.940 --> 00:44:26.000
good at memorizing things and taking tests. And

00:44:26.000 --> 00:44:30.739
it doesn't mean that they have some grand understanding

00:44:30.739 --> 00:44:36.900
of life. You were born, you woke up this morning.

00:44:36.960 --> 00:44:41.800
I'm talking to you. I'm talking to you. If you

00:44:41.800 --> 00:44:45.199
trust yourself, And just be honest with yourself.

00:44:45.440 --> 00:44:50.300
You woke up with more wisdom this morning than

00:44:50.300 --> 00:44:54.619
virtually any doctor you'll ever meet. Any attorney,

00:44:54.699 --> 00:44:58.260
any multimillionaire. You have so much onboard

00:44:58.260 --> 00:45:02.960
wisdom. You need to trust yourself. You're beautiful

00:45:02.960 --> 00:45:06.340
and you're powerful and you're free. Don't let

00:45:06.340 --> 00:45:10.920
the education system tell you otherwise. The

00:45:10.920 --> 00:45:13.099
external failure part of this education system

00:45:13.099 --> 00:45:16.699
is it develops fragile thinkers. Did I memorize

00:45:16.699 --> 00:45:18.880
this correctly? If I didn't, am I going to get

00:45:18.880 --> 00:45:21.639
punished? Am I going to fail? What if I fail?

00:45:21.699 --> 00:45:23.699
What does that mean? Am I going to lose my scholarship?

00:45:24.280 --> 00:45:27.179
It's a fear thing. Everything's fear. Somebody

00:45:27.179 --> 00:45:31.400
that understands and works from a true wisdom

00:45:31.400 --> 00:45:33.579
and intuition, what they'll do is they'll say,

00:45:33.639 --> 00:45:35.840
I'm going to do the best I can based on what

00:45:35.840 --> 00:45:38.559
I know and based on all the information I can

00:45:38.559 --> 00:45:42.110
get. And guess what? If I mess up, if I trip,

00:45:42.130 --> 00:45:45.989
if I fall, I'll get up, I'll try it again, right?

00:45:46.590 --> 00:45:49.730
I'll learn from it. So those experiences that

00:45:49.730 --> 00:45:53.070
we have going through and failing are the very

00:45:53.070 --> 00:45:56.289
thing that make us wiser. And then if we're smart,

00:45:56.409 --> 00:45:58.889
we can go to our parents and our grandparents.

00:45:58.989 --> 00:46:02.309
We can say, hey, I'm about ready to do this thing.

00:46:03.409 --> 00:46:05.949
I know you did that thing when you were my age.

00:46:07.710 --> 00:46:10.280
What guidance can you give me? So I don't have

00:46:10.280 --> 00:46:12.260
to trip up. So I don't have to goof up. So I

00:46:12.260 --> 00:46:13.980
don't have to waste money. I don't have to fail.

00:46:14.320 --> 00:46:17.119
That's called the wisdom of the ages. Now, do

00:46:17.119 --> 00:46:19.940
I listen to everything my elders say? No. But

00:46:19.940 --> 00:46:23.119
if I talk to my aunt, my uncle, my godfather,

00:46:23.239 --> 00:46:25.820
my godmother, my parents, and I talk to 20 people

00:46:25.820 --> 00:46:30.480
and I ask them the same question and there's

00:46:30.480 --> 00:46:33.760
a spot, there's one part of all of those answers

00:46:33.760 --> 00:46:37.849
that they give me that... every single one of

00:46:37.849 --> 00:46:40.849
them said the same thing, some variation of it,

00:46:40.929 --> 00:46:45.269
then I'm going to listen to that. Now, it might

00:46:45.269 --> 00:46:49.070
come out that it's different for me, right? Maybe

00:46:49.070 --> 00:46:52.130
they all got it wrong, and I might have to do

00:46:52.130 --> 00:46:53.489
things differently, but at least I'm going to

00:46:53.489 --> 00:46:56.389
consider those things. Even if they have no degrees,

00:46:56.510 --> 00:46:59.469
even if they don't, the smartest people I know

00:46:59.469 --> 00:47:02.610
didn't even graduate from high school. It's not

00:47:02.610 --> 00:47:04.769
a thing, people. Don't do this education thing.

00:47:05.360 --> 00:47:09.139
Our current failures, they create fragile thinkers.

00:47:09.400 --> 00:47:12.519
It creates polarization. This is so classic.

00:47:12.599 --> 00:47:16.019
Look what our education system did. Is the earth

00:47:16.019 --> 00:47:19.659
flat or is it round? Well, if you took somebody

00:47:19.659 --> 00:47:22.739
from 200 years ago, they'd say it's flat. If

00:47:22.739 --> 00:47:25.199
you took somebody from modern day, they'd say

00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:29.760
it's round. Now, those two disparaging groups

00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:34.199
of people that believe flat earth or round earth,

00:47:34.570 --> 00:47:37.289
They should be able to have a discussion. They

00:47:37.289 --> 00:47:39.090
should be able to sit down and say, well, why

00:47:39.090 --> 00:47:41.449
do you think it's round? Well, why do you think

00:47:41.449 --> 00:47:45.050
it's flat? But what happened is they're so fragile.

00:47:46.010 --> 00:47:50.829
They're so invested in this. They're so attached

00:47:50.829 --> 00:47:56.690
to being right. Their ego is, if they're in the

00:47:56.690 --> 00:48:00.090
round earth camp, they can't be wrong. If they're

00:48:00.090 --> 00:48:01.809
in the flat earth camp, they can't be wrong.

00:48:02.539 --> 00:48:04.360
They're so invested, it creates polarization.

00:48:05.380 --> 00:48:08.340
They're so afraid of being wrong that they're

00:48:08.340 --> 00:48:10.500
not going to get the truth. If you're really

00:48:10.500 --> 00:48:13.860
a critical thinker, or what I would call a first

00:48:13.860 --> 00:48:15.880
principle thinker, because remember the first

00:48:15.880 --> 00:48:18.480
principle, let's talk flat earth. If you're a

00:48:18.480 --> 00:48:23.440
first principle thinker, education exists to

00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:26.280
cultivate discernment, curiosity, and independent

00:48:26.280 --> 00:48:30.349
reasoning. So what's that look like? Well, gosh,

00:48:30.469 --> 00:48:33.369
you know, why would you believe that the earth

00:48:33.369 --> 00:48:36.769
is spinning and the water sticking to the earth

00:48:36.769 --> 00:48:38.590
as it's spinning at a thousand miles per hour?

00:48:38.710 --> 00:48:41.530
Why? Why do you believe there were spinning globe?

00:48:41.809 --> 00:48:44.969
Explain that to me. And you're going to explain

00:48:44.969 --> 00:48:49.829
your position. And then in a civil world, the

00:48:49.829 --> 00:48:51.329
other person I'm talking to is going to say to

00:48:51.329 --> 00:48:53.690
me, well, why do you believe the way you to believe?

00:48:54.090 --> 00:48:55.710
Right. So we're going to have this conversation

00:48:55.710 --> 00:48:58.289
and I'm going to say, well, if I put a laser

00:48:58.289 --> 00:49:01.519
over. You know, there's a missile system on a

00:49:01.519 --> 00:49:05.780
ship that shoots down incoming missiles 100 miles

00:49:05.780 --> 00:49:09.260
away. And I don't think a laser can do that over

00:49:09.260 --> 00:49:12.639
a curved ocean. So I think we should have this

00:49:12.639 --> 00:49:16.500
conversation. Right. So that's just one example.

00:49:16.539 --> 00:49:19.579
But I'm just saying we need to have these conversations.

00:49:20.579 --> 00:49:23.079
And it's independent of an education system.

00:49:23.179 --> 00:49:25.539
If the education system was doing the right thing

00:49:25.539 --> 00:49:28.599
or being effective. They would teach us how to

00:49:28.599 --> 00:49:30.820
be critical thinkers instead of just being workers

00:49:30.820 --> 00:49:34.900
who can sit down, shut up, color in the lines.

00:49:35.559 --> 00:49:38.760
Another thing is people get rattled. If I ask

00:49:38.760 --> 00:49:42.719
somebody, how did you come to believe that way?

00:49:43.239 --> 00:49:45.699
Let's just say with the flat earth, round earth

00:49:45.699 --> 00:49:47.800
thing. How did you come to believe that way?

00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:52.920
They get rattled. They can't explain to me why

00:49:52.920 --> 00:49:55.639
they believe the way they do. They cannot perform

00:49:55.639 --> 00:49:58.239
under pressure. And they get all rattled with

00:49:58.239 --> 00:50:01.500
that. That shouldn't happen. They should say,

00:50:01.539 --> 00:50:03.659
well, I read it in this book or my mom and dad

00:50:03.659 --> 00:50:07.179
told me or my teacher told me or whatever. Now,

00:50:07.219 --> 00:50:09.480
we're going to kind of cover off on that a little

00:50:09.480 --> 00:50:12.380
bit because that's one of the problems is when

00:50:12.380 --> 00:50:16.019
you dig deep and you say, well, how did you come

00:50:16.019 --> 00:50:18.460
to believe that way? What happens is the authority

00:50:18.460 --> 00:50:21.420
replaces knowledge. Instead of saying, well,

00:50:21.500 --> 00:50:24.000
let's go find out. Let's do some research. Let's

00:50:24.000 --> 00:50:26.400
work collaboratively to find out the shape of

00:50:26.400 --> 00:50:29.300
the earth. Let's work together to solve the problem.

00:50:29.860 --> 00:50:32.219
That's what we should be doing. Finding knowledge,

00:50:32.400 --> 00:50:35.480
true knowledge, inner knowledge, is no longer

00:50:35.480 --> 00:50:38.800
trumped by authority. Now, you go one step further,

00:50:38.960 --> 00:50:41.500
if you permit that to persist for any length

00:50:41.500 --> 00:50:43.239
of time, people are just, they're going to stop

00:50:43.239 --> 00:50:45.079
being curious. They're just going to say, well,

00:50:45.099 --> 00:50:47.739
that's what all the teachers said. And there

00:50:47.739 --> 00:50:50.010
was a globe in the room. since I was in kindergarten,

00:50:50.190 --> 00:50:54.130
so it must be true. The idea of being wrong is

00:50:54.130 --> 00:50:58.469
more important now. It's more important now that

00:50:58.469 --> 00:51:02.550
people not be wrong than that they pursue the

00:51:02.550 --> 00:51:05.650
truth. And so if you go back to first principles,

00:51:05.710 --> 00:51:08.170
that would disappear. The first principle is

00:51:08.170 --> 00:51:10.650
pursue the truth, even if it means you being

00:51:10.650 --> 00:51:13.530
wrong, because the truth is more important than

00:51:13.530 --> 00:51:16.210
being right or wrong. If it's left to continue,

00:51:16.309 --> 00:51:17.849
then the soul becomes basically conditioned.

00:51:18.679 --> 00:51:23.679
to be subservient to the idea of being right

00:51:23.679 --> 00:51:29.500
instead of being inwardly rewarded for the process

00:51:29.500 --> 00:51:33.059
of seeking the truth. Okay. Wow. There's a lot

00:51:33.059 --> 00:51:34.860
here, people. Thanks for sticking. This has been

00:51:34.860 --> 00:51:37.639
so important to me to get this out there. So

00:51:37.639 --> 00:51:40.139
hopefully you're sticking with me. We're going

00:51:40.139 --> 00:51:43.300
to wrap it up. I promise. This is a really, really

00:51:43.300 --> 00:51:46.099
big deal. This next one is technology and AI.

00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:49.880
everybody's about technology. Look around you.

00:51:50.320 --> 00:51:54.119
Now, my first principle with AI is this. These

00:51:54.119 --> 00:51:58.079
tools should extend human capacity, okay? They

00:51:58.079 --> 00:52:00.820
should extend our capabilities, but they should

00:52:00.820 --> 00:52:06.380
not erode our own soul's awareness and responsibility.

00:52:06.860 --> 00:52:09.820
So, I mean, here's this example. I've seen, as

00:52:09.820 --> 00:52:13.380
an instructor pilot, I've seen this happen so

00:52:13.380 --> 00:52:16.280
many times. where you have a very skilled and

00:52:16.280 --> 00:52:20.579
talented person flying the airplane. And over

00:52:20.579 --> 00:52:24.239
time, they become overly dependent on the autopilot

00:52:24.239 --> 00:52:29.760
and their skills atrophy, their piloting skills

00:52:29.760 --> 00:52:32.760
atrophy to the point where when it comes time

00:52:32.760 --> 00:52:35.619
for them to click off the autopilot and actually

00:52:35.619 --> 00:52:38.460
fly the airplane, just like they did when they

00:52:38.460 --> 00:52:42.380
were becoming a pilot, they're very rusty. So

00:52:42.380 --> 00:52:45.119
when I was flying for Back when I was flying

00:52:45.119 --> 00:52:48.440
for JetBlue as a captain, I would almost always

00:52:48.440 --> 00:52:52.960
click off the autopilot and manually do the approach

00:52:52.960 --> 00:52:56.119
and the landing, all of them manually, unless

00:52:56.119 --> 00:52:58.460
the book told me to do it otherwise. There's

00:52:58.460 --> 00:53:00.519
certain procedures you have to do. You have to

00:53:00.519 --> 00:53:04.320
use technology to lighten the load under certain

00:53:04.320 --> 00:53:07.239
circumstances. But the bottom line is that analogy,

00:53:07.500 --> 00:53:10.400
there's been so many pilots have actually killed

00:53:10.400 --> 00:53:14.170
themselves. by becoming over -dependent on technology.

00:53:14.550 --> 00:53:18.769
Now that's a pretty severe statement, but it's

00:53:18.769 --> 00:53:20.369
also very true, especially if you're one of the

00:53:20.369 --> 00:53:24.969
passengers. So that's a big problem. So what

00:53:24.969 --> 00:53:27.090
happens in the modern system is you have automation

00:53:27.090 --> 00:53:32.070
without accountability. So the automation, people

00:53:32.070 --> 00:53:33.590
feel like they don't have to read, they don't

00:53:33.590 --> 00:53:35.309
have to study, they don't have to dig, they don't

00:53:35.309 --> 00:53:37.849
have to do research, they don't have to, they're

00:53:37.849 --> 00:53:41.090
shedding all of these responsibilities. And they're

00:53:41.090 --> 00:53:44.030
replacing convenience for sovereignty. When I

00:53:44.030 --> 00:53:46.409
was at the Air Force Academy, we had to literally

00:53:46.409 --> 00:53:48.849
go put our name on a waiting list for a book

00:53:48.849 --> 00:53:51.409
to come in so I could research how these lasers

00:53:51.409 --> 00:53:55.150
work. And when the book came in, I could only

00:53:55.150 --> 00:53:58.510
have it for two days. So we had to really work

00:53:58.510 --> 00:54:02.110
to become accountable for gaining that wisdom

00:54:02.110 --> 00:54:04.789
and knowledge. And if we didn't pick up the book

00:54:04.789 --> 00:54:06.510
when it was available, it went to the next person.

00:54:10.639 --> 00:54:15.280
big problem and it degrades the value of us operating

00:54:15.280 --> 00:54:18.219
within our own sovereignty. And basically what

00:54:18.219 --> 00:54:21.420
happens is instead of people thinking for themselves,

00:54:21.699 --> 00:54:24.119
they're going to go and say, well, let me just

00:54:24.119 --> 00:54:27.380
go Google it or let me ask AI. I'm just going

00:54:27.380 --> 00:54:33.599
to ask ChatGPT. Hey, ChatGPT, how should I think

00:54:33.599 --> 00:54:37.480
about this? Right? I remember when ChatGPT came

00:54:37.480 --> 00:54:40.780
out, I was an early adopter. And I argued with

00:54:40.780 --> 00:54:42.800
it. I was like, you're a dumbass. You know, I

00:54:42.800 --> 00:54:47.599
was just literally this, because why? ChatGPT

00:54:47.599 --> 00:54:50.139
is built on what's called an LLM, which is a

00:54:50.139 --> 00:54:53.099
large language model. It doesn't do anything.

00:54:54.699 --> 00:54:59.159
It's not intelligent. It's artificial for sure,

00:54:59.260 --> 00:55:03.559
but it's not intelligent. All it does is it looks

00:55:03.559 --> 00:55:06.980
at billions and billions of bits of information.

00:55:08.490 --> 00:55:12.090
including your drunk brother -in -law blogging

00:55:12.090 --> 00:55:15.869
about something, the most entrenched academic

00:55:15.869 --> 00:55:19.050
in the world burping up facts that they've been

00:55:19.050 --> 00:55:21.449
taught. So there's all of this stuff floating

00:55:21.449 --> 00:55:25.789
out there and all AI does is aggregates it and

00:55:25.789 --> 00:55:28.849
burps it up in your face. There's no intelligence

00:55:28.849 --> 00:55:31.449
to it. You're the divine intelligence. So what

00:55:31.449 --> 00:55:34.369
happens is the first principle is that these

00:55:34.369 --> 00:55:36.869
tools should help us. But when I look at this

00:55:36.869 --> 00:55:40.369
black box in front of my face and I say, help

00:55:40.369 --> 00:55:42.670
me make this decision or help me write this paper

00:55:42.670 --> 00:55:47.690
or help me do something, I'm surrendering my

00:55:47.690 --> 00:55:49.829
decision -making, my sovereignty, and my accountability

00:55:49.829 --> 00:55:54.469
to that. So now what's inside the black box and

00:55:54.469 --> 00:55:57.050
how the system works, that's the bad part. Because

00:55:57.050 --> 00:56:00.510
externally, there's a centralized control to

00:56:00.510 --> 00:56:04.590
how that works. I remember early on, I wanted...

00:56:04.989 --> 00:56:09.369
an image i wanted ai to generate an image for

00:56:09.369 --> 00:56:12.550
me and it said it can't do it it won't it won't

00:56:12.550 --> 00:56:15.909
create that image for me i'm like what do you

00:56:15.909 --> 00:56:18.769
mean i'm looking for i was looking to put i think

00:56:18.769 --> 00:56:21.730
it was like some some kid in a swimming pool

00:56:21.730 --> 00:56:25.210
uh you know like a one of those life preservers

00:56:25.210 --> 00:56:27.869
like you know those ring things i just wanted

00:56:27.869 --> 00:56:32.110
a kid floating in a in a swimming pool and then

00:56:32.110 --> 00:56:35.570
i had specific people i had told it around the

00:56:35.570 --> 00:56:39.449
swimming pool. And it said it violated some sort

00:56:39.449 --> 00:56:43.570
of an algorithm. And I'm like, I don't really

00:56:43.570 --> 00:56:46.469
understand. So what I'm saying is that there

00:56:46.469 --> 00:56:50.250
are centralized controls over how you use these

00:56:50.250 --> 00:56:53.369
AI agents. But the good news is there's also,

00:56:53.429 --> 00:56:55.489
you can take your autonomy back. You can actually

00:56:55.489 --> 00:56:59.190
use AI on your own systems, give it your own

00:56:59.190 --> 00:57:02.340
language models, your own databases. So you're

00:57:02.340 --> 00:57:04.099
going to see more of that. But I'm just saying

00:57:04.099 --> 00:57:06.179
if it's left unchecked, it's going to go out.

00:57:06.340 --> 00:57:08.519
You're going to lose your agency because you're

00:57:08.519 --> 00:57:12.059
going to say, well, chat GPT said this or Claude

00:57:12.059 --> 00:57:15.280
said this or co -pilot said this. And you're

00:57:15.280 --> 00:57:17.260
just going to run with that and you're going

00:57:17.260 --> 00:57:21.159
to completely go right off the cliff because

00:57:21.159 --> 00:57:23.380
you followed something that was absolutely stupid.

00:57:23.820 --> 00:57:26.599
And so don't do that. There's also ethical blind

00:57:26.599 --> 00:57:30.380
spots. There are severe ethical blind spots.

00:57:30.920 --> 00:57:34.500
Where does AI get its information? Every place

00:57:34.500 --> 00:57:36.480
on the internet, any place you can find information,

00:57:36.719 --> 00:57:38.179
it's going to get it and it's going to burp it

00:57:38.179 --> 00:57:40.679
up and give it to you. Well, what about if somebody's

00:57:40.679 --> 00:57:44.619
got copyrighted information? It's going to still

00:57:44.619 --> 00:57:46.619
burp it up and give it to you. It's actually

00:57:46.619 --> 00:57:49.340
stealing from other people to give you answers

00:57:49.340 --> 00:57:51.440
instead of you buying their book or instead of

00:57:51.440 --> 00:57:54.380
you buying their research paper or whatever you

00:57:54.380 --> 00:57:57.400
have to do. Basically, there's a lot of ethical

00:57:57.400 --> 00:58:00.539
implications there. There's also implications

00:58:00.539 --> 00:58:04.800
about, hey, I want you to take the president

00:58:04.800 --> 00:58:11.460
and make him or her do something unflattering,

00:58:11.659 --> 00:58:14.440
right? Do you have the right to use somebody

00:58:14.440 --> 00:58:16.599
else's image and likeness in an unflattering

00:58:16.599 --> 00:58:19.159
manner, right? These are not okay. And these

00:58:19.159 --> 00:58:21.639
are conversations that you're shedding off to

00:58:21.639 --> 00:58:24.599
people if you're using AI. So what does this

00:58:24.599 --> 00:58:27.300
mean to your soul's journey? What happens if

00:58:27.300 --> 00:58:30.139
we permit this to go? Well, we've seen it. You

00:58:30.139 --> 00:58:33.659
go to a restaurant, or even now, if you're just

00:58:33.659 --> 00:58:37.900
talking to a kid, a teenager, very few of them

00:58:37.900 --> 00:58:39.420
can stay focused on what you're talking about.

00:58:39.840 --> 00:58:41.659
By the way, for those of you listening right

00:58:41.659 --> 00:58:43.260
now and you're still hanging in there, you're

00:58:43.260 --> 00:58:45.699
still listening to this, God bless you. This

00:58:45.699 --> 00:58:49.000
is great. There's a lot here. Attention fragments.

00:58:49.159 --> 00:58:51.519
You also get this thing where you're getting

00:58:51.519 --> 00:58:54.360
lost. Your soul is getting lost in this artificial

00:58:54.360 --> 00:58:57.190
space. Especially when I see people walking around

00:58:57.190 --> 00:59:01.469
with these goggles on. You're living in an artificial

00:59:01.469 --> 00:59:03.889
space instead of having soulful experiences.

00:59:04.369 --> 00:59:07.590
You can look through Google and have an experience

00:59:07.590 --> 00:59:11.710
that you're walking through a garden, but it's

00:59:11.710 --> 00:59:16.289
just so fake. It's so limited. But when you go

00:59:16.289 --> 00:59:19.409
to my garden, you hear the bees. You look at

00:59:19.409 --> 00:59:25.610
the butterflies. You smell the herbs. See the

00:59:25.610 --> 00:59:28.949
dew on the flowers like in real time. There's

00:59:28.949 --> 00:59:33.010
so much more to the real experience. What happens

00:59:33.010 --> 00:59:35.989
is you're present in the moment. And this is

00:59:35.989 --> 00:59:38.469
the same like looking at a beautiful baby that's

00:59:38.469 --> 00:59:41.949
just brand new born versus seeing an image of

00:59:41.949 --> 00:59:44.010
a baby through some goggles that you have on.

00:59:45.769 --> 00:59:49.969
Feeling the baby, holding the baby, being there

00:59:49.969 --> 00:59:52.650
with the baby when it's crying and then you hold

00:59:52.650 --> 00:59:57.159
the baby. Those are tactile, soulful experiences

00:59:57.159 --> 01:00:00.440
that you cannot get outside of yourself. You

01:00:00.440 --> 01:00:04.519
must be present in the moment for your souls

01:00:04.519 --> 01:00:06.579
to have those experiences. But a lot of times

01:00:06.579 --> 01:00:08.619
these technologies and AI, they dissolve those

01:00:08.619 --> 01:00:12.019
away. I already talked briefly about the outsourcing,

01:00:12.119 --> 01:00:18.340
but there's also something that's sad is I find

01:00:18.340 --> 01:00:22.280
that people... They'll say it's generational,

01:00:22.340 --> 01:00:28.619
but even adults, they can't find stillness. One

01:00:28.619 --> 01:00:33.679
of the coolest parts of being in this soul's

01:00:33.679 --> 01:00:36.940
journey, and I'm going to challenge all of you

01:00:36.940 --> 01:00:39.900
to do this, all of you. If you're still listening

01:00:39.900 --> 01:00:43.639
to me, I want you to do this one thing, and this

01:00:43.639 --> 01:00:46.579
is where you're going to find your soul, is I

01:00:46.579 --> 01:00:51.670
want you to go and be quiet. Don't talk. Shut

01:00:51.670 --> 01:00:53.690
off your AI. Shut off technology. Shut off your

01:00:53.690 --> 01:00:57.409
cell phone. Shut off the music. Shut off everything.

01:00:59.429 --> 01:01:05.769
Go walk through the park. Go walk in a garden.

01:01:05.789 --> 01:01:09.929
Walk in the forest. Be present. This is one of

01:01:09.929 --> 01:01:12.769
the most beautiful things you can do. If you

01:01:12.769 --> 01:01:17.650
have somebody that can also go and be quiet and

01:01:17.650 --> 01:01:20.809
go experience those things with you, That's one

01:01:20.809 --> 01:01:22.590
of the biggest things you can do to feed your

01:01:22.590 --> 01:01:27.190
soul is to find that quiet and find the stillness

01:01:27.190 --> 01:01:29.909
and get your alignment between your soul and

01:01:29.909 --> 01:01:32.730
your head. Don't let your head go spinning off

01:01:32.730 --> 01:01:34.650
because that's what AI and technology is going

01:01:34.650 --> 01:01:37.769
to do. What I'm talking about is getting coherence

01:01:37.769 --> 01:01:41.210
between your brain, which is your outside world

01:01:41.210 --> 01:01:43.869
and your inside world. We need to bring coherence

01:01:43.869 --> 01:01:47.349
and stop scattering yourself all over these systems.

01:01:48.000 --> 01:01:49.880
Bring yourself together back within yourself.

01:01:50.420 --> 01:01:53.619
Your personal finance and career. Listen, I talked

01:01:53.619 --> 01:01:56.739
about it earlier. The first principle here is

01:01:56.739 --> 01:02:00.860
that time, energy, and talent are finite expressions

01:02:00.860 --> 01:02:05.820
of your purpose. Your soul's purpose here on

01:02:05.820 --> 01:02:11.059
this earth manifests in time, energy, and talent.

01:02:12.039 --> 01:02:14.559
Now, the modern world is going to have you. They're

01:02:14.559 --> 01:02:18.469
going to say that you're a function. of how productive

01:02:18.469 --> 01:02:21.070
you can be. In other words, your value is based

01:02:21.070 --> 01:02:23.070
on how productive you can be. And that's just

01:02:23.070 --> 01:02:26.210
not true. They're also going to say that your

01:02:26.210 --> 01:02:30.969
status, your status is the most important thing.

01:02:31.070 --> 01:02:33.489
So there's these titles, right? We talked about

01:02:33.489 --> 01:02:36.050
the doctor title and these, I'm an attorney or

01:02:36.050 --> 01:02:38.570
I'm a millionaire, whatever you think you are.

01:02:39.369 --> 01:02:44.050
It replaces contribution, right? And then this

01:02:44.050 --> 01:02:46.349
is a big thing too. I see a lot of people going

01:02:46.349 --> 01:02:49.849
through motions. Well, I don't get it. I brought

01:02:49.849 --> 01:02:53.489
her roses on the anniversary. I don't get it.

01:02:53.610 --> 01:02:57.289
I always do his laundry. I always make the bed.

01:02:57.309 --> 01:02:59.510
I always do these things. It's not the motions.

01:03:00.369 --> 01:03:04.349
Motion does not replace meaning. When my children,

01:03:04.909 --> 01:03:07.989
I would rather have, like I've got four children

01:03:07.989 --> 01:03:10.230
and four grandchildren. I would rather have my

01:03:10.230 --> 01:03:14.860
children write a handwritten note. on the back

01:03:14.860 --> 01:03:20.199
of a napkin and tuck it in my pocket so I can

01:03:20.199 --> 01:03:23.500
find it. I love you. I'm so glad you're my parent,

01:03:23.639 --> 01:03:29.039
right? I would rather that than them go and organize

01:03:29.039 --> 01:03:31.539
some big party and do some big thing. I would

01:03:31.539 --> 01:03:35.039
rather have the meaning of that beautiful handwritten

01:03:35.039 --> 01:03:40.980
note that took 15 seconds, maybe a minute, to

01:03:40.980 --> 01:03:43.960
write something and give it to me. That's more

01:03:43.960 --> 01:03:47.780
precious to me than somebody handing me the keys

01:03:47.780 --> 01:03:51.460
to a new Bentley convertible or something. It's

01:03:51.460 --> 01:03:57.179
not about people, people, people, people. It's

01:03:57.179 --> 01:03:59.219
not about the motions. It's not about the activities.

01:03:59.619 --> 01:04:01.500
It's about the meaning, okay? Let's get there.

01:04:02.539 --> 01:04:04.119
If you don't get there, you're going to burn

01:04:04.119 --> 01:04:07.079
out. You see this all the time. I mean, you have

01:04:07.079 --> 01:04:09.650
people. I can't believe this company. I worked

01:04:09.650 --> 01:04:11.929
there for 29 years and they fired me the year

01:04:11.929 --> 01:04:14.690
before my 30th. You know, they're chasing these

01:04:14.690 --> 01:04:16.690
titles and they're chasing these retirements

01:04:16.690 --> 01:04:19.170
and they're missing all these beautiful years.

01:04:19.670 --> 01:04:23.210
And even while they're pursuing those things

01:04:23.210 --> 01:04:26.389
within those structures, they're basically golden

01:04:26.389 --> 01:04:29.829
cages. They're caged in. They're not sovereign.

01:04:29.929 --> 01:04:33.329
They're not free. And they're self -imposed limitations

01:04:33.329 --> 01:04:36.760
because their soul's not having a journey. They're

01:04:36.760 --> 01:04:39.519
personally never advancing their soul. They're

01:04:39.519 --> 01:04:41.659
never going towards their soul's purpose because

01:04:41.659 --> 01:04:44.239
they've locked themselves in a cage, a structure,

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:48.480
an artificial structure, and they've relegated

01:04:48.480 --> 01:04:51.780
themselves to an entire life of dissatisfaction.

01:04:51.800 --> 01:04:56.059
That's the external manifestation of it. So what's

01:04:56.059 --> 01:04:57.679
that mean to your soul in the long run? Well,

01:04:57.800 --> 01:05:04.260
I always say, never confuse being busy with being

01:05:04.260 --> 01:05:07.369
productive. A lot of people say, well, I'm always

01:05:07.369 --> 01:05:12.449
so busy. Stop being busy. Be productive. Now

01:05:12.449 --> 01:05:15.010
you can be productive at your work and you can

01:05:15.010 --> 01:05:17.250
be productive with your family and with your

01:05:17.250 --> 01:05:19.110
band or whatever you're doing. You can be productive

01:05:19.110 --> 01:05:22.389
when it comes to your soul's journey. You must

01:05:22.389 --> 01:05:25.349
make that a priority. Make sure that your alignment

01:05:25.349 --> 01:05:28.750
with your soul's journey is the most productive

01:05:28.750 --> 01:05:31.429
thing you do, right? You always have to double

01:05:31.429 --> 01:05:34.190
everything you do back to who are you and why

01:05:34.190 --> 01:05:36.510
are you here? I had a friend from 30 years ago.

01:05:36.610 --> 01:05:39.389
How do you say it? It's great that people climb

01:05:39.389 --> 01:05:42.809
the ladder of success, but let's just make sure

01:05:42.809 --> 01:05:45.050
the ladder is leaning against the correct building,

01:05:45.170 --> 01:05:47.710
right? Something like that. I probably botched

01:05:47.710 --> 01:05:51.489
that, but you get the idea. So don't postpone

01:05:51.489 --> 01:05:54.590
the inner work. A lot of people run away from

01:05:54.590 --> 01:06:00.010
the shadow. You got to engage the soul's journey.

01:06:00.489 --> 01:06:02.369
If the world around you is giving you something

01:06:02.369 --> 01:06:06.230
negative, Interrogate that negative. Look at

01:06:06.230 --> 01:06:09.210
it dead in the eyes. Try to understand what it

01:06:09.210 --> 01:06:13.289
means to you, okay? Because otherwise, your soul

01:06:13.289 --> 01:06:15.289
is going to go through this entire earth experience.

01:06:16.269 --> 01:06:18.769
They're going to end up burying your body and

01:06:18.769 --> 01:06:20.530
you're going to be exhausted. You're going to

01:06:20.530 --> 01:06:23.469
get to the end of your life exhausted without

01:06:23.469 --> 01:06:26.929
any personal soul victories. And then you're

01:06:26.929 --> 01:06:29.159
going to look back and say, Oh man, I didn't

01:06:29.159 --> 01:06:31.760
even accomplish what I came here to do. Last

01:06:31.760 --> 01:06:35.579
one. I know it's taking a lot of time. God, there's

01:06:35.579 --> 01:06:38.340
so much here. I just value, I've wanted to share

01:06:38.340 --> 01:06:40.719
this information for so long. First principles,

01:06:40.840 --> 01:06:44.800
last one. I pretty much went through all of these,

01:06:44.900 --> 01:06:47.639
but this all ties together with this last one.

01:06:48.340 --> 01:06:50.860
This has to do with your spiritual inner development,

01:06:50.960 --> 01:06:56.159
okay? And again, it all ties together. The first

01:06:56.159 --> 01:07:00.099
principle is that Truth withstands questioning

01:07:00.099 --> 01:07:04.480
and your actual awakening requires direct experience.

01:07:05.559 --> 01:07:09.340
Now, what does that mean? I hear all of these

01:07:09.340 --> 01:07:12.099
people talking about, oh, we're on this awakening

01:07:12.099 --> 01:07:16.039
journey or I'm awakened or I'm or they're woke

01:07:16.039 --> 01:07:18.739
or they're not woke. And there are all this stuff

01:07:18.739 --> 01:07:23.800
or whatever words. That's not the awakening I'm

01:07:23.800 --> 01:07:27.570
talking about. I'm not talking about. The awakening

01:07:27.570 --> 01:07:29.730
of the corruption of the deep state and all the

01:07:29.730 --> 01:07:32.369
dirtbags, the politicians and all the people

01:07:32.369 --> 01:07:34.070
that are doing all the dirtbag things around

01:07:34.070 --> 01:07:37.150
the world. That's not what I'm talking about.

01:07:38.230 --> 01:07:40.329
What I'm talking about here is your soul's journey.

01:07:41.449 --> 01:07:46.429
The idea that to experience a swimming pool,

01:07:46.610 --> 01:07:51.489
I can't just cerebralize it. I have to dive into

01:07:51.489 --> 01:07:55.739
it. I have to feel it. I can understand the concept

01:07:55.739 --> 01:08:01.019
of a hug, but it doesn't mean anything to me

01:08:01.019 --> 01:08:05.599
until I feel the hug. I can understand what a

01:08:05.599 --> 01:08:08.780
dog is, but until it jumps on me and licks my

01:08:08.780 --> 01:08:13.519
face, I don't experience it. Your soulful experience,

01:08:13.960 --> 01:08:17.920
that's what the journey is about. It's about

01:08:17.920 --> 01:08:20.859
your experience. It's about awakening. to the

01:08:20.859 --> 01:08:23.720
idea, the whole purpose of what I'm sharing with

01:08:23.720 --> 01:08:28.260
you today is that you have to awaken to the idea

01:08:28.260 --> 01:08:33.300
of yourself having a soulful experience and everything

01:08:33.300 --> 01:08:37.159
around you is for your benefit. All of it. The

01:08:37.159 --> 01:08:40.659
truth, whatever you perceive as the truth, even

01:08:40.659 --> 01:08:44.079
if it's different from somebody else, your truth

01:08:44.079 --> 01:08:47.079
is your truth. You don't have to convince somebody

01:08:47.079 --> 01:08:49.659
else of your truth. They have their own truth.

01:08:50.710 --> 01:08:52.810
Now, what's cool is when you meet people who

01:08:52.810 --> 01:08:55.829
can actually talk about their truth freely and

01:08:55.829 --> 01:08:58.789
you talk about your truth freely. Robin and I

01:08:58.789 --> 01:09:01.630
have been married for over 30 years now. We don't

01:09:01.630 --> 01:09:06.189
agree on everything. When she has a truth that

01:09:06.189 --> 01:09:09.369
diverges from my truth, we have a conversation

01:09:09.369 --> 01:09:13.010
about it. When we were newlyweds, we basically

01:09:13.010 --> 01:09:17.050
said, look, if we're ever going to argue, let's

01:09:17.050 --> 01:09:18.890
make an agreement that we're going to argue.

01:09:20.130 --> 01:09:24.710
naked in bed, right? That was our thing. If we're

01:09:24.710 --> 01:09:26.109
going to argue, it's going to be naked in bed

01:09:26.109 --> 01:09:28.729
and we're going to come to a resolution, all

01:09:28.729 --> 01:09:31.529
right? So those are things that I'm just saying,

01:09:31.569 --> 01:09:34.029
those are experiences. Those are really important

01:09:34.029 --> 01:09:40.329
things. So truth withstands questioning. It's

01:09:40.329 --> 01:09:43.729
not something that you identify with. It's something

01:09:43.729 --> 01:09:46.970
you're always seeking. You're always seeking

01:09:46.970 --> 01:09:50.399
truth. Whether the earth is round or flat, it

01:09:50.399 --> 01:09:54.979
doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. What matters

01:09:54.979 --> 01:09:57.460
is that we collectively can figure out the answer

01:09:57.460 --> 01:10:00.779
if we respect each other and we put our heads

01:10:00.779 --> 01:10:02.939
together and figure out how to get the answer,

01:10:03.020 --> 01:10:07.520
right? Now, why does it fail in today's world?

01:10:07.939 --> 01:10:12.319
Why does this... My principle is that truth withstands

01:10:12.319 --> 01:10:15.500
questioning. Well, opposite of that is that there's

01:10:15.500 --> 01:10:17.970
a dogma that replaces inquiry. In other words,

01:10:17.970 --> 01:10:21.270
I'm not, I can't question the church because

01:10:21.270 --> 01:10:24.970
the church has got a book that's ordained and

01:10:24.970 --> 01:10:29.649
it's canonized and it's the, there's 1500 years

01:10:29.649 --> 01:10:31.470
ago, a bunch of guys sat in a room and agreed

01:10:31.470 --> 01:10:35.149
that this is the truth. All right. Kind of the

01:10:35.149 --> 01:10:39.149
same as a spinning round earth, right? It's dogma

01:10:39.149 --> 01:10:42.170
and this is the truth and the science is settled

01:10:42.170 --> 01:10:44.010
and I'm not allowed to ask any questions. That's

01:10:44.010 --> 01:10:47.289
the failure. And so what happens is, Instead

01:10:47.289 --> 01:10:51.170
of being allowed to use our discernment, it gets

01:10:51.170 --> 01:10:53.750
schlepped off to these gurus, to these academics.

01:10:54.630 --> 01:10:57.229
When a little girl asks, well, why do we cut

01:10:57.229 --> 01:11:02.569
the end off the Easter ham? Why do we cut the

01:11:02.569 --> 01:11:06.109
end off the ham? The answer to the girl is, well,

01:11:06.130 --> 01:11:08.050
that's the way grandma did it and her grandmom

01:11:08.050 --> 01:11:09.810
and her grandmom and her grandma. That's what

01:11:09.810 --> 01:11:13.569
you do. That's the way you do it. But why? Don't

01:11:13.569 --> 01:11:17.340
ask questions. But why? Why do we do it? those

01:11:17.340 --> 01:11:20.260
questions are really important but we stop asking

01:11:20.260 --> 01:11:24.100
those questions because ritual replaces interrogation

01:11:24.100 --> 01:11:27.140
and we're told to sit down and shut up and color

01:11:27.140 --> 01:11:29.979
in the lines right it's a failure of the system

01:11:29.979 --> 01:11:32.899
it's complete failure so what happens is we end

01:11:32.899 --> 01:11:35.359
up with this external manifestation of what i'll

01:11:35.359 --> 01:11:40.920
call basically spiritual tribalism right there's

01:11:40.920 --> 01:11:43.000
the muslims and there's the christians and there's

01:11:43.000 --> 01:11:45.920
the atheists agnostics and the you know whatever

01:11:45.920 --> 01:11:51.010
the religion of the day is right because their

01:11:51.010 --> 01:11:54.470
truth has to be the truth and they have everything

01:11:54.470 --> 01:11:56.369
to lay everything to lose because their truth

01:11:56.369 --> 01:11:59.869
their truth is attached to their own ego then

01:11:59.869 --> 01:12:03.750
it becomes spiritual tribalism by the way it

01:12:03.750 --> 01:12:06.729
could be religious but it's also politics are

01:12:06.729 --> 01:12:09.789
you a democrat or republican are you green are

01:12:09.789 --> 01:12:14.189
you red or are you blue well no i'm not i'm a

01:12:14.189 --> 01:12:16.859
person that asks questions Well, that's not right.

01:12:16.899 --> 01:12:19.619
You have to be red or blue. Well, no, I really

01:12:19.619 --> 01:12:24.000
don't have to be. I'm going to vote for the person

01:12:24.000 --> 01:12:27.500
that tells the truth. Now it's like I'm in a

01:12:27.500 --> 01:12:29.659
place where I'm not going to vote because nobody

01:12:29.659 --> 01:12:32.260
tells the truth, right? So we're going to tear

01:12:32.260 --> 01:12:35.180
down the system and start over. It manifests

01:12:35.180 --> 01:12:38.439
in what I call tribalism. You're part of this

01:12:38.439 --> 01:12:40.500
village. You're part of this tribe. You can call

01:12:40.500 --> 01:12:44.180
it a nation, a state, a country, even a social

01:12:44.180 --> 01:12:48.270
strata. I was just a young, probably a young

01:12:48.270 --> 01:12:52.470
teenager. I could not believe that there was

01:12:52.470 --> 01:12:56.569
countries that had a caste system, a caste system.

01:12:56.649 --> 01:12:57.829
For those of you who don't know what that is,

01:12:57.869 --> 01:13:00.630
you need to look it up. But basically, you're

01:13:00.630 --> 01:13:04.930
born into this level, this economic level, and

01:13:04.930 --> 01:13:06.550
there's nothing you can do to get out of it,

01:13:06.590 --> 01:13:10.890
period. It's like, yeah, I would have sucked

01:13:10.890 --> 01:13:16.189
at that because that, yeah. I would have been

01:13:16.189 --> 01:13:20.670
really bad at that system so what happens now

01:13:20.670 --> 01:13:24.270
internal to ourselves what it does is it forces

01:13:24.270 --> 01:13:26.630
us to not ask questions if we're not allowed

01:13:26.630 --> 01:13:29.229
to ask questions external to ourselves about

01:13:29.229 --> 01:13:31.890
why things are the way they are then it also

01:13:31.890 --> 01:13:35.569
manifests inside of ourselves so as above so

01:13:35.569 --> 01:13:39.369
below as without so within if I'm not allowed

01:13:39.369 --> 01:13:43.739
to ask questions outside of myself it or puts

01:13:43.739 --> 01:13:45.899
a damper on my ability to ask questions about

01:13:45.899 --> 01:13:49.680
my internal self. What's that sound like? Well,

01:13:49.699 --> 01:13:53.239
gosh, it's the woman that's had three marriages

01:13:53.239 --> 01:13:57.779
and she keeps blaming other people and she never

01:13:57.779 --> 01:14:01.800
ever figures out that it's something she's doing

01:14:01.800 --> 01:14:07.079
or not doing. It's unresolved trauma. It's maybe

01:14:07.079 --> 01:14:09.359
things from her childhood or things that she...

01:14:09.470 --> 01:14:12.569
belief system she has about herself, it bypasses

01:14:12.569 --> 01:14:17.590
the internal interrogatory to find out about

01:14:17.590 --> 01:14:19.529
what traumas are keeping you from advancing.

01:14:20.430 --> 01:14:23.069
Same thing if a guy keeps losing jobs, right?

01:14:23.250 --> 01:14:25.069
And he never has the internal dialogue. It's

01:14:25.069 --> 01:14:27.109
like, why do I keep losing jobs? Why can't I

01:14:27.109 --> 01:14:30.029
hold a job? You got to ask yourself the question.

01:14:30.130 --> 01:14:31.850
Maybe it's because you have a foul mouth and

01:14:31.850 --> 01:14:34.430
you keep swearing. Every three minutes you're

01:14:34.430 --> 01:14:36.609
swearing. Maybe that's not a good thing for an

01:14:36.609 --> 01:14:39.430
interview, right? You have to... What's causing

01:14:39.430 --> 01:14:41.470
you to swear? Well, maybe your dad swore. Well,

01:14:41.529 --> 01:14:43.609
is that the best thing for you to do? Is that

01:14:43.609 --> 01:14:46.170
the best? Is that part of your soul's journey?

01:14:46.510 --> 01:14:49.409
Or can you think of a better way to move through

01:14:49.409 --> 01:14:53.170
life than having a potty mouth, right? Whatever

01:14:53.170 --> 01:14:55.689
the trauma is that's causing you to believe or

01:14:55.689 --> 01:14:59.810
act or do things a certain way, we want to turn

01:14:59.810 --> 01:15:03.750
that inward, spiritual inner self, and figure

01:15:03.750 --> 01:15:06.449
out how do we make ourselves better? How do we

01:15:06.449 --> 01:15:12.239
improve our situation by towards a better way

01:15:12.239 --> 01:15:16.199
of doing things, right? And this results in a

01:15:16.199 --> 01:15:19.300
personal performative enlightenment. It's basically

01:15:19.300 --> 01:15:22.520
an advancement of your personal self because

01:15:22.520 --> 01:15:25.840
you... And I'll just tell you, I mean, I shared

01:15:25.840 --> 01:15:27.840
this in some previous podcasts and I'm going

01:15:27.840 --> 01:15:35.600
to share this again. I've overcome, to a large

01:15:35.600 --> 01:15:38.640
part, PTSD. You know, I've had... trauma in my

01:15:38.640 --> 01:15:41.760
life and during the daytime I was no problem

01:15:41.760 --> 01:15:46.699
but the night time I would have some severe PTSD

01:15:46.699 --> 01:15:49.479
like where I was always defending people and

01:15:49.479 --> 01:15:52.739
getting shot like fatally injured right always

01:15:52.739 --> 01:15:55.560
it was always me defending people and I had to

01:15:55.560 --> 01:15:58.699
literally dive deep into that and do the intro

01:15:58.699 --> 01:16:02.899
do the inner shadow work and say okay okay PTSD

01:16:02.899 --> 01:16:06.510
why are you you're here to serve me I'm I'm the

01:16:06.510 --> 01:16:09.649
queen, I'm the princess. You're here to serve

01:16:09.649 --> 01:16:12.630
me. Teach me. What am I supposed to learn from

01:16:12.630 --> 01:16:16.189
this? Because as soon as I learn the lesson from

01:16:16.189 --> 01:16:19.550
you, you're going to disappear. And by and large,

01:16:19.550 --> 01:16:22.550
it has. I almost have, I almost never have nightmares

01:16:22.550 --> 01:16:25.909
anymore. I'm happy to report. Sometimes I do,

01:16:25.970 --> 01:16:28.590
but they're very rare. So anyway, this is part

01:16:28.590 --> 01:16:32.430
of, you know, dealing with your traumas, dealing

01:16:32.430 --> 01:16:35.590
with your experiences. and making it part of

01:16:35.590 --> 01:16:39.090
your soul's journey making it a reason for you

01:16:39.090 --> 01:16:42.890
to advance instead of an excuse for you to not

01:16:42.890 --> 01:16:46.210
advance hopefully that makes sense so what does

01:16:46.210 --> 01:16:49.130
that mean on a soul level we really want to look

01:16:49.130 --> 01:16:54.210
at finding truth that comes from your inner self

01:16:54.210 --> 01:16:57.250
your inner knowingness instead of from an authority

01:16:57.250 --> 01:17:01.779
figure all right the inner knowing is being currently

01:17:01.779 --> 01:17:04.319
being suppressed and that we have to stop it

01:17:04.319 --> 01:17:06.979
from being suppressed which is just like a muscle

01:17:06.979 --> 01:17:10.220
you have to exercise it if you don't exercise

01:17:10.220 --> 01:17:12.359
your inner knowing then you're going to lose

01:17:12.359 --> 01:17:15.140
it maybe you have to come back and repeat this

01:17:15.140 --> 01:17:17.380
repeat the course come back to the academy and

01:17:17.380 --> 01:17:21.000
repeat it your your soul basically loops back

01:17:21.000 --> 01:17:23.699
and it keeps you're going to keep looping back

01:17:23.699 --> 01:17:26.930
until you learn those lessons so Unless you want

01:17:26.930 --> 01:17:28.949
to keep coming back and repeating fifth grade,

01:17:29.010 --> 01:17:32.149
fifth grade, fifth grade, fifth grade as a soul

01:17:32.149 --> 01:17:37.409
in this earth experience, draw the line, look

01:17:37.409 --> 01:17:40.430
at the trauma, face it, learn from it so you

01:17:40.430 --> 01:17:42.529
can go to the next level, right? That's your

01:17:42.529 --> 01:17:46.229
ascension. That's your assignment. So we don't

01:17:46.229 --> 01:17:49.119
want to outsource. We don't want to outsource

01:17:49.119 --> 01:17:50.840
wisdom. Let's learn to get wisdom from within.

01:17:51.239 --> 01:17:53.520
You guys have been awesome. This is a lot. This

01:17:53.520 --> 01:17:54.939
is an awful lot. I probably should have broken

01:17:54.939 --> 01:17:57.279
it up into multiple episodes. So basically, what's

01:17:57.279 --> 01:17:59.699
this amount to? When you put it all together,

01:17:59.899 --> 01:18:02.340
the bottom line is this. When your first principles

01:18:02.340 --> 01:18:05.819
are violated, the systems get bigger and louder

01:18:05.819 --> 01:18:10.420
and your soul gets quieter. That's the takeaway.

01:18:10.760 --> 01:18:14.159
So for your soul to grow, you have to move away

01:18:14.159 --> 01:18:17.109
from the systems. It's just the opposite. Make

01:18:17.109 --> 01:18:19.329
your soul's voice, make the little voice within

01:18:19.329 --> 01:18:21.869
you grow bigger and bigger so the systems will

01:18:21.869 --> 01:18:23.810
get quieter and quieter. You want to listen to

01:18:23.810 --> 01:18:26.229
your inner self. You certainly want to respect

01:18:26.229 --> 01:18:30.069
other people's autonomy and sovereignty and things

01:18:30.069 --> 01:18:32.229
like that. But this is your soul's journey. Remember

01:18:32.229 --> 01:18:37.670
that. Basically, where reality becomes mediated,

01:18:37.810 --> 01:18:41.449
your reality is your reality. There's no external

01:18:41.449 --> 01:18:46.920
solution or validation that you need. It's your

01:18:46.920 --> 01:18:51.100
experience, okay? Finally, we don't want to operate

01:18:51.100 --> 01:18:54.260
in the fear realm. I said this a bunch of times,

01:18:54.300 --> 01:18:57.399
but you are beautiful, you are powerful, and

01:18:57.399 --> 01:19:03.640
you're free. If your soul is eternal, then this

01:19:03.640 --> 01:19:06.140
earth life is not about winning systems. It's

01:19:06.140 --> 01:19:09.779
not about ego. It's about remembering your alignment,

01:19:09.859 --> 01:19:14.279
bringing your soul purpose in alignment with

01:19:14.279 --> 01:19:17.229
your brain's perception of your soul's purpose

01:19:17.229 --> 01:19:21.430
you have to remember in your brain why you were

01:19:21.430 --> 01:19:25.289
here what's your purpose for being here so these

01:19:25.289 --> 01:19:27.710
these principles are not you know some sort of

01:19:27.710 --> 01:19:30.689
philosophical abstraction or something these

01:19:30.689 --> 01:19:33.590
are invariable these are spiritual determinatives

01:19:33.590 --> 01:19:38.010
that'll anchor your soul from being distorted

01:19:38.010 --> 01:19:40.970
from outside truths it's going to anchor you

01:19:40.970 --> 01:19:43.050
to your internal truth You're going to restore

01:19:43.050 --> 01:19:45.850
this coherence between all of the fragments of

01:19:45.850 --> 01:19:48.409
yourself because the world around you wants to

01:19:48.409 --> 01:19:51.210
fragment you. You're going to restore yourself.

01:19:51.770 --> 01:19:54.189
And basically, you're going to move from instead

01:19:54.189 --> 01:19:57.590
of this survivalism where you're reacting to

01:19:57.590 --> 01:20:00.670
the world around you, you're going to move into

01:20:00.670 --> 01:20:03.770
this bias where you're initiating. You're saying,

01:20:03.890 --> 01:20:08.270
I own me. I'm in charge of me. I'm beautiful.

01:20:08.390 --> 01:20:12.779
I'm powerful. I'm free. In the world, doesn't

01:20:12.779 --> 01:20:15.460
know what's about to happen because I'm initiating

01:20:15.460 --> 01:20:17.340
things instead of reacting to things, right?

01:20:17.640 --> 01:20:19.380
Your lifetime is going to change if you apply

01:20:19.380 --> 01:20:21.720
these first principles. I promise. I promise.

01:20:22.619 --> 01:20:26.880
Your soul is, there's a compass. It's going to

01:20:26.880 --> 01:20:29.720
move towards its goal. You have to shut, you

01:20:29.720 --> 01:20:32.279
have to stop the brain. Stop your brain from

01:20:32.279 --> 01:20:37.340
going crazy. Find peace. Find quiet. Your soul

01:20:37.340 --> 01:20:41.539
is going to progress. Trust yourself. You're

01:20:41.539 --> 01:20:44.600
going to journey through this earth space. You've

01:20:44.600 --> 01:20:47.880
got a purpose. You're not here by accident. There's

01:20:47.880 --> 01:20:50.460
definitely a reason you're here and you're experiencing

01:20:50.460 --> 01:20:55.119
this. Take a breath. Listen to this over if you

01:20:55.119 --> 01:20:58.039
can tolerate it. There's a lot of information.

01:20:58.500 --> 01:21:01.060
Know that you're lovable, you're beautiful, you're

01:21:01.060 --> 01:21:03.439
powerful, and you're free. I love you dearly.

01:21:03.460 --> 01:21:06.380
This went way longer than I thought, but it's

01:21:06.380 --> 01:21:08.199
been on my heart. It's something that I wanted

01:21:08.199 --> 01:21:12.239
to get out there into the world. If this just

01:21:12.239 --> 01:21:16.079
helped a single person move towards your next

01:21:16.079 --> 01:21:19.100
level, then it was worth it to me. I love you

01:21:19.100 --> 01:21:21.640
dearly. I hope 2026 is a great year for all y

01:21:21.640 --> 01:21:24.000
