  • 00:01:45
    better to make my contribution impact on
  • 00:01:47
    the world so that was really big for me

  • 00:01:53
    thousands over a thousand thank you
  • 00:01:56
    emails and thank-you comments on YouTube
  • 00:02:00
    on my website in my inbox every single
  • 00:02:04
    week
  • 00:02:04
    it's amazing to read some of the some of
  • 00:02:08
    the emails that I get from people that
  • 00:02:10
    get progress in their life from
  • 00:02:13
    for applying some of the concepts that I
  • 00:02:15
    teach I bought pretty much everything
  • 00:02:19
    that I wanted every gadget every
  • 00:02:20
    electronics thing television compute
  • 00:02:22
    like whatever I want gadget wise or
  • 00:02:24
    books or you know anything I want
  • 00:02:26
    materially I basically have there's
  • 00:02:28
    there's like there's not much more I
  • 00:02:30
    want I've pretty much exhausted all of
  • 00:02:32
    my material desires except for maybe
  • 00:02:35
    buying a house which I could do if I
  • 00:02:37
    wanted to but I just don't want to tie
  • 00:02:39
    myself down with that right now and my
  • 00:02:42
    emotional and my mental development I
  • 00:02:45
    feel like it's skyrocketing and growing
  • 00:02:49
    at rates that I never imagined was even
  • 00:02:51
    possible I thought that I already knew
  • 00:02:54
    so much but it's like no there's more
  • 00:02:56
    and then there's more and there's more
  • 00:02:57
    and I'm just discovering that it's like
  • 00:02:59
    it's never-ending how much I can learn
  • 00:03:01
    and how much I can grow myself and how
  • 00:03:03
    good I can feel in my mind in my body on
  • 00:03:06
    a daily basis so the reason I say all
  • 00:03:11
    this is not to brag but just because I
  • 00:03:15
    was at this retreat and I was really
  • 00:03:18
    having some deep conversations with
  • 00:03:19
    people and one of the individuals I met
  • 00:03:21
    there was this a 20 year old kid and he
  • 00:03:25
    was inspiring guy because I just talked
  • 00:03:28
    and listened to his story in fact I got
  • 00:03:30
    a lot of people's stories there but his
  • 00:03:32
    story was interesting because he
  • 00:03:34
    actually became an apprentice and he was
  • 00:03:36
    at this at this consciousness thing for
  • 00:03:39
    eight months straight he was living
  • 00:03:41
    there full-time working at it full-time
  • 00:03:43
    that was like his whole thing but before
  • 00:03:47
    that he was basically just like an
  • 00:03:48
    ordinary teenager ordinary kid who just
  • 00:03:52
    played video games back to his thing was
  • 00:03:53
    that he played Wow for like ten hours a
  • 00:03:55
    day that was this thing just went to
  • 00:03:57
    school [ __ ] with friends and played
  • 00:04:00
    Wow for ten hours a day and that was his
  • 00:04:02
    life and then he came here and he just
  • 00:04:04
    had this complete like mind-blowing
  • 00:04:08
    transformation and what was interesting
  • 00:04:11
    is that he was learning consciousness
  • 00:04:12
    work at this retreat and that's cool you
  • 00:04:15
    know conscious work is a very specific
  • 00:04:16
    thing it's a little different from self
  • 00:04:19
    improvement or personal development work
  • 00:04:20
    but you know we just try to talk in and
  • 00:04:23
    I was talking about what I do and the
  • 00:04:25
    concepts that I talked about on my
  • 00:04:27
    channel
  • 00:04:27
    fourth and he just got curious and we
  • 00:04:29
    just started talking about and I was
  • 00:04:30
    trying to like help him a little bit
  • 00:04:32
    give him some advice about becoming a
  • 00:04:34
    writer because he wanted to become a
  • 00:04:35
    writer and one of the things he got from
  • 00:04:37
    doing this conscious work is that he saw
  • 00:04:38
    that [ __ ] I'm wasting my life playing
  • 00:04:40
    Wow 10 hours a day I should be working
  • 00:04:43
    on my writing and so he actually started
  • 00:04:45
    working on his writing started making
  • 00:04:46
    plans for all that stuff but we started
  • 00:04:49
    talking late at night and basically I
  • 00:04:51
    started exposing him to self-help
  • 00:04:53
    material so some of the advice that I'm
  • 00:04:56
    exposing you guys to here through these
  • 00:04:57
    videos I was starting to expose him to
  • 00:05:01
    some of that stuff and it was starting
  • 00:05:02
    to blow his mind I could see it it's
  • 00:05:04
    like he was listening to some of these
  • 00:05:06
    concepts it was the first time he ever
  • 00:05:07
    heard about some of these concepts even
  • 00:05:10
    though he was doing conscious work and
  • 00:05:11
    you know conscious northing I said is a
  • 00:05:12
    different thing but it blew his mind
  • 00:05:15
    because he's like oh like it's actually
  • 00:05:17
    possible to engineer systematically
  • 00:05:20
    engineer an awesome life for oneself
  • 00:05:22
    like it's possible to create an amazing
  • 00:05:23
    career with passion it's possible to
  • 00:05:26
    like get your financial freedom in life
  • 00:05:28
    it's possible to like learn a lot about
  • 00:05:30
    relationships and about sexuality and
  • 00:05:32
    all these other domains business and
  • 00:05:35
    marketing and so forth and like set up
  • 00:05:37
    an amazing lifestyle for yourself like
  • 00:05:39
    it blew it was blowing his mind that
  • 00:05:41
    this stuff is possible to do and yeah I
  • 00:05:43
    was you know telling him more and more
  • 00:05:45
    about this news getting curious but what
  • 00:05:47
    shocked me was it was an epiphany for me
  • 00:05:49
    was that he was shocked by the fact that
  • 00:05:53
    these are possibilities for him and what
  • 00:05:57
    clicked in my mind is I had to slot I'm
  • 00:05:59
    like oh my [ __ ] god
  • 00:06:02
    ordinary people I'm so involved with
  • 00:06:04
    self-improvement work that I'm like out
  • 00:06:07
    of touch with the fact that ordinary
  • 00:06:08
    people don't even know it's not that
  • 00:06:11
    they don't know that there's personal
  • 00:06:13
    development work that they should be
  • 00:06:16
    doing it's like they don't even know
  • 00:06:17
    that there is such a thing called self
  • 00:06:19
    improvement at all this concept is
  • 00:06:21
    completely foreign to most people like
  • 00:06:25
    it was for this guy I was telling you
  • 00:06:28
    about something seventies he's just like
  • 00:06:29
    oh my god I never realized like I could
  • 00:06:31
    actually live a life that's passionate
  • 00:06:33
    and that feels like I'm alive that's
  • 00:06:36
    like not what all my friends are doing
  • 00:06:38
    and not what like my family is kind of
  • 00:06:41
    expects
  • 00:06:41
    they need to do I just like thought that
  • 00:06:44
    I was just like go working some regular
  • 00:06:47
    job you know in a grocery store or
  • 00:06:48
    something like this or bartending or
  • 00:06:51
    whatever and maybe just work a little
  • 00:06:53
    bit on my writing you know like that was
  • 00:06:54
    kind of his plan and it blew my mind
  • 00:06:58
    because I realize like holy [ __ ] what
  • 00:07:01
    needs to happen here more than me just
  • 00:07:04
    communicating a bunch of techniques to
  • 00:07:06
    you guys and concepts and advanced
  • 00:07:08
    theory Theory collide ia's what needs to
  • 00:07:11
    happen is just more communication of the
  • 00:07:13
    vision of what you can create for
  • 00:07:15
    yourself and what I really want you to
  • 00:07:19
    buy into is the idea that there is this
  • 00:07:21
    thing of self-improvement and not just a
  • 00:07:26
    20% self-improvement or like a 50%
  • 00:07:30
    self-improvement but like uh five
  • 00:07:33
    thousand percent twenty thousand percent
  • 00:07:36
    like life altering radically changing
  • 00:07:40
    how you feel about life who you think
  • 00:07:42
    you are in life what you're doing in
  • 00:07:43
    life like completely wiping the slate
  • 00:07:45
    clean and rebuilding yourself kind of
  • 00:07:49
    self-improvement one of the problems is
  • 00:07:53
    that most people don't really realize
  • 00:07:54
    that this is out there this is possible
  • 00:07:56
    it seems like a fantasy especially if
  • 00:07:59
    you're stuck in an environment with
  • 00:08:01
    friends and family who set a shitty
  • 00:08:03
    example and the fact is that most
  • 00:08:05
    friends and family set a shitty example
  • 00:08:08
    including my own I came from a
  • 00:08:10
    background where that was the case so I
  • 00:08:12
    wasn't privileged in any way by having
  • 00:08:14
    some great well-functioning family in
  • 00:08:17
    fact one of my main motives I think for
  • 00:08:19
    getting into this work was because of
  • 00:08:21
    how shitty the example was set by my
  • 00:08:24
    parents so there's that but then there's
  • 00:08:27
    also pop culture so you watch movies
  • 00:08:30
    video games television all this kind of
  • 00:08:32
    stuff Netflix Internet you just get
  • 00:08:34
    sucked into all that and then pop
  • 00:08:36
    culture basically destroys your capacity
  • 00:08:38
    to live a creative fully alive life and
  • 00:08:43
    it robs you of this drive that you could
  • 00:08:45
    have so this was an epiphany that I had
  • 00:08:48
    I think that more needs to be said about
  • 00:08:51
    this like just hammering this point home
  • 00:08:54
    because I want you to see what you're
  • 00:08:57
    missing out on in your life because I
  • 00:09:00
    don't think you get it even if you're
  • 00:09:04
    following this work even if you're
  • 00:09:05
    dabbling a bit in self-improvement I
  • 00:09:07
    still don't think you get just how much
  • 00:09:11
    you're leaving on the table right now
  • 00:09:14
    and how much is possible for you so I
  • 00:09:18
    want to share a little bit of my vision
  • 00:09:19
    for what self-actualization is what I
  • 00:09:21
    call self-actualization this actually
  • 00:09:23
    concept that I was inspired to take from
  • 00:09:26
    Abraham Maslow who I think coined a term
  • 00:09:29
    self-actualization here's how he defines
  • 00:09:32
    it it's the realization of one's
  • 00:09:34
    potentials capacities and talents the
  • 00:09:38
    fulfillment of one's mission in life a
  • 00:09:40
    fuller knowledge of one's intrinsic
  • 00:09:43
    nature getting really in touch with your
  • 00:09:46
    authentic self and becoming a whole
  • 00:09:49
    human being not the fragmented human
  • 00:09:52
    being not the small petty human being
  • 00:09:54
    that you are right now it's an unceasing
  • 00:09:57
    trend towards unity and integration
  • 00:10:01
    within yourself Maslow said there are
  • 00:10:06
    two types of pleasure scarcity pleasure
  • 00:10:09
    and abundance pleasure scarcity pleasure
  • 00:10:13
    is the relief that one gets from the
  • 00:10:17
    loss of tension and anxiety
  • 00:10:21
    ringabel
  • 00:10:24
    isn't that what you're doing with most
  • 00:10:26
    of your goals in life right now is
  • 00:10:28
    you're trying to reduce tension fear and
  • 00:10:31
    anxiety and pain and this gives you a
  • 00:10:35
    certain kind of pleasure when you do
  • 00:10:36
    this a certain relief and you think that
  • 00:10:37
    you're actually accomplishing a lot and
  • 00:10:39
    it's a good first step but then consider
  • 00:10:44
    abundance pleasure abundance pleasure is
  • 00:10:47
    the ecstasy at functioning at one's
  • 00:10:49
    prime the ecstasy of functioning at once
  • 00:10:54
    prime it's not just about fixing a
  • 00:10:58
    dysfunction that you have it's not about
  • 00:11:01
    curing your depression or it's not about
  • 00:11:04
    fixing your crappy job and getting a
  • 00:11:06
    good job no
  • 00:11:08
    it's about the bliss that you get from
  • 00:11:14
    living an excellent virtuous life from
  • 00:11:15
    acing life there's a very big difference
  • 00:11:18
    from like failing at life to doing good
  • 00:11:21
    in life to acing life that takes a whole
  • 00:11:26
    new level of commitment I know a lot of
  • 00:11:29
    people who are relatively successful
  • 00:11:31
    they earn 50 to $100,000 a year which is
  • 00:11:35
    good enough to get them the kind of nice
  • 00:11:37
    basically comfortable carefree lifestyle
  • 00:11:40
    that they want and sure they have some
  • 00:11:42
    higher aspirations but but basically you
  • 00:11:44
    know they're just kind of like living
  • 00:11:45
    well which is easy enough to do in
  • 00:11:48
    modern society but they're not really
  • 00:11:52
    functioning at the peak of their
  • 00:11:54
    potential I wouldn't really call these
  • 00:11:56
    people self actualized or self
  • 00:11:59
    actualizing seif actualization is a this
  • 00:12:02
    is an ideal you never really get some
  • 00:12:04
    ultimate destination it's a it's a trend
  • 00:12:08
    an unceasing trend as Maslow says a
  • 00:12:12
    trend towards what well it's the pursuit
  • 00:12:16
    of the following is the pursuit of
  • 00:12:17
    humanity it's the pursuit of creativity
  • 00:12:20
    it's the pursuit of knowledge the
  • 00:12:23
    pursuit of fairness rationality
  • 00:12:27
    playfulness authentic love virtue truth
  • 00:12:34
    beauty and a feeling of joy and real
  • 00:12:39
    deep gratitude and fulfillment with life
  • 00:12:44
    notice that this is not just getting
  • 00:12:48
    security in life or getting comfort in
  • 00:12:51
    life this is something very different
  • 00:12:53
    than that if you're living your life for
  • 00:12:55
    security and comfort which probably 90%
  • 00:13:00
    of you are then you know that's a good
  • 00:13:04
    start you got to start somewhere but
  • 00:13:08
    that shouldn't be your vision your
  • 00:13:10
    vision has to be higher it has to really
  • 00:13:13
    tap into the ultimate of what a human
  • 00:13:17
    being can be let me tell you little bit
  • 00:13:21
    about that
  • 00:13:22
    what's possible for you what is possible
  • 00:13:25
    for you if you really commit yourself to
  • 00:13:27
    a lifelong path of self-actualization
  • 00:13:30
    work of working not just on the outside
  • 00:13:33
    circumstances of your life but mostly
  • 00:13:36
    focusing on really the inside
  • 00:13:38
    circumstances your beliefs your
  • 00:13:41
    attitudes your habits and patterns and
  • 00:13:45
    so on there's a real huge difference
  • 00:13:50
    between the regular life and the
  • 00:13:52
    self-actualized life and you'll start to
  • 00:13:55
    see more and more of it as I talk like I
  • 00:13:58
    said it's living to the peak of human
  • 00:14:00
    capability and most of us state we don't
  • 00:14:05
    really know what the peak of human
  • 00:14:06
    capability what this means because we're
  • 00:14:08
    growing up in a culture around us and
  • 00:14:10
    are the people that we grow up around
  • 00:14:12
    are probably pretty average they're
  • 00:14:14
    probably pretty neurotic and
  • 00:14:15
    dysfunctional they're not really
  • 00:14:16
    superstars because even if once in a
  • 00:14:22
    while you do encounter a superstar
  • 00:14:23
    chances are he or she then exits and
  • 00:14:27
    passes through your life because usually
  • 00:14:29
    superstars want to associate with other
  • 00:14:30
    superstars that's one of the secrets of
  • 00:14:35
    of moving up in life associating with
  • 00:14:38
    really ambitious people who really
  • 00:14:40
    understand this vision for what they can
  • 00:14:43
    get out of life and they're really
  • 00:14:44
    bought into it and if you grew up an
  • 00:14:46
    environment where your parents or
  • 00:14:49
    friends or siblings they weren't bought
  • 00:14:50
    in and your co-workers weren't bought in
  • 00:14:52
    and so forth then you don't even know
  • 00:14:54
    what's going on like what is possible
  • 00:14:57
    for you you think that what's possible
  • 00:14:59
    for you is just what's possible for the
  • 00:15:00
    common herd like a cow who grows up in a
  • 00:15:04
    factory farm doesn't really know what
  • 00:15:08
    it's like to really be a a cow who lives
  • 00:15:10
    on a green beautiful pasture out in out
  • 00:15:15
    of nature all he sees is just the
  • 00:15:18
    feedlots and all the other cows crammed
  • 00:15:21
    in together in some aluminum shed which
  • 00:15:26
    is not how you're designed to live
  • 00:15:30
    imagine for a minute
  • 00:15:34
    a moment in your life where you felt the
  • 00:15:36
    most alive with creative energy where
  • 00:15:42
    you were giddy with creativity you were
  • 00:15:45
    working on something or you had some
  • 00:15:46
    brilliant idea or maybe some artistic
  • 00:15:48
    inspiration or you were just blown away
  • 00:15:51
    by something that you read and you
  • 00:15:52
    wanted to do more with that or you were
  • 00:15:54
    blown away why by piece of music or you
  • 00:15:56
    blown away by something you saw in the
  • 00:15:58
    movies or maybe you were blown away by
  • 00:16:00
    something you saw out in nature or you
  • 00:16:02
    were moved by some speaker that you
  • 00:16:03
    heard speaking giving a motivational
  • 00:16:05
    speech or whatever imagine right now
  • 00:16:09
    conjure up a memory from the past you
  • 00:16:11
    have one of these memories where you
  • 00:16:12
    really felt creatively alive and maybe
  • 00:16:17
    you have to go back 10 20 30 years to
  • 00:16:20
    find this moment all the way back maybe
  • 00:16:23
    to your childhood but you can find one
  • 00:16:24
    of these moments and go ahead and just
  • 00:16:29
    close your eyes for just a few seconds
  • 00:16:31
    and try to recall the emotions in your
  • 00:16:34
    body that you actually felt when you
  • 00:16:37
    were creatively alive and really juiced
  • 00:16:40
    up and really like ready to go do
  • 00:16:43
    something in the world close your eyes
  • 00:16:48
    right now and picture that try to get a
  • 00:16:51
    little bit of that feeling back in your
  • 00:16:52
    body if you can here's what's possible
  • 00:17:00
    you got that feeling here's what's
  • 00:17:02
    possible what's possible and you're
  • 00:17:05
    probably not going to believe this but
  • 00:17:08
    what's possible is that you can live
  • 00:17:10
    every single day of your life
  • 00:17:12
    feeling that way consistently every
  • 00:17:17
    single day waking up charged and feeling
  • 00:17:22
    alive and eager going through your whole
  • 00:17:24
    day creating and stoking up even more of
  • 00:17:27
    that energy and then going to sleep
  • 00:17:30
    after a whole day of work and all this
  • 00:17:33
    kind of creative cool stuff that you do
  • 00:17:35
    and all these ideas that you have and
  • 00:17:37
    going to sleep almost more excited than
  • 00:17:40
    when you woke up because you got so much
  • 00:17:42
    done and now there's so much more to do
  • 00:17:46

    towards others you don't feel critical
  • 00:19:34
    you don't feel negative at all you can
  • 00:19:38
    learn to shed all those habits those are
  • 00:19:41
    all internal toxic habits that you think
  • 00:19:44
    is just the norm and part and parcel of
  • 00:19:48
    being a human being but it's not it's
  • 00:19:52
    just that the society we grew up in we
  • 00:19:56
    think it's kind of a good society but
  • 00:19:57
    it's a it's a really toxic society toxic
  • 00:20:00
    culture
  • 00:20:01
    environment and we just we just
  • 00:20:03
    normalize to it and we think that asks
  • 00:20:06
    what's normal and that's what's typical
  • 00:20:09
    and that anything else seems like it's a
  • 00:20:11
    fairy tale or it's only for certain
  • 00:20:13
    kinds of people who are special in some
  • 00:20:15
    way or who've been privileged or have a
  • 00:20:17
    lot of money or some other thing like
  • 00:20:20
    that but that's not the case at all it's
  • 00:20:26
    also possible to learn and master
  • 00:20:28
    emotional development so you can really
  • 00:20:30
    master your emotions and of course your
  • 00:20:34
    family life all those family issues that
  • 00:20:37
    you have not just I'm not talking about
  • 00:20:39
    just removing all the problems from all
  • 00:20:42
    these different domains of life like
  • 00:20:44
    career wealth health family friends and
  • 00:20:46
    so forth I'm talking about like acing
  • 00:20:49
    and excelling and being superb and
  • 00:20:53
    deriving bliss in each one of these
  • 00:20:56
    categories right but this takes work
  • 00:21:01
    this is not something you get easily
  • 00:21:03
    this takes a lifelong commitment to self
  • 00:21:05
    self-actualization work a lifelong
  • 00:21:08
    commitment to self improvement and a
  • 00:21:10
    lifelong commitment to learning about
  • 00:21:14
    all the deep material that you need to
  • 00:21:17
    learn all the conceptual frameworks and
  • 00:21:19
    theories and techniques that you need to
  • 00:21:20
    learn for for mastering all these areas
  • 00:21:24
    which is what I was talking about with
  • 00:21:26
    this guy at the at the retreat you know
  • 00:21:28
    we were talking with this I was talking
  • 00:21:29
    with this kid and um you know telling
  • 00:21:33
    him that there are all these different
  • 00:21:34
    categories you can improve yourself in
  • 00:21:36
    all these different categories you can
  • 00:21:37
    rank yourself on how good you are right
  • 00:21:39
    now in each one of these categories how
  • 00:21:41
    much suffering you have or how much
  • 00:21:42
    bliss you get from each one of those and
  • 00:21:44
    then you can take on a systematic effort
  • 00:21:47
    to master each one of these areas career
  • 00:21:50
    your wealth health self-esteem family
  • 00:21:53
    and intimate relationships and so forth
  • 00:21:55
    and you can lock each one of these down
  • 00:21:57
    systematically over time and you can buy
  • 00:21:59
    books and you go to seminars you can
  • 00:22:01
    find videos and so forth and you can get
  • 00:22:04
    coaching and you can learn from experts
  • 00:22:06
    who have aged all these areas you can
  • 00:22:09
    put it all together for yourself and
  • 00:22:11
    this is not a fantasy this is not this
  • 00:22:13
    is nothing that's like you know
  • 00:22:15
    it's not like winning the lottery it's
  • 00:22:16
    not like an accident that maybe it'll
  • 00:22:18
    happen for me someday
  • 00:22:19
    no it's guarantee that it'll happen for
  • 00:22:20
    you if you just commit to it and you put
  • 00:22:23
    forth work every single day it will
  • 00:22:26
    happen for you let me share some what I
  • 00:22:32
    call kick-ass goals that you might want
  • 00:22:34
    to set for yourself as you're thinking
  • 00:22:36
    about your vision for the future because
  • 00:22:39
    what I really want to get across to you
  • 00:22:41
    here is you need to have a much larger
  • 00:22:42
    vision for your life than you currently
  • 00:22:44
    have not five times larger or not
  • 00:22:47
    telling like a hundred times larger than
  • 00:22:49
    what you currently have you're selling
  • 00:22:52
    yourself very short and you're setting
  • 00:22:54
    your goals very low you need some much
  • 00:22:58
    more inspiring higher consciousness
  • 00:23:01
    goals to shoot for so let me just give
  • 00:23:05
    you a little list of some stuff that
  • 00:23:07
    might be interesting for you that might
  • 00:23:09
    really get you excited to to do the
  • 00:23:12
    self-actualization work how about this
  • 00:23:16
    one for starters how about you can
  • 00:23:19
    create a life where you never have to
  • 00:23:20
    worry about money ever again never have
  • 00:23:24
    to worry about it
  • 00:23:25
    because you're always guaranteed to get
  • 00:23:28
    more how about a life where your work is
  • 00:23:33
    not work but it's like play it's your
  • 00:23:36
    greatest joy and you're doing service to
  • 00:23:40
    the world that really means something to
  • 00:23:42
    you and lights you up and brings you
  • 00:23:45
    deep joy and satisfaction how about
  • 00:23:51
    developing full emotional control
  • 00:23:52
    I mean conquering your depression your
  • 00:23:56
    anxiety boredom and pain and suffering
  • 00:24:00
    anger and negative thinking and fear how
  • 00:24:03
    about conquering all of those because
  • 00:24:06
    you can if you want to
  • 00:24:10
    how about developing yourself beyond
  • 00:24:13
    that to become a really grounded
  • 00:24:15
    emotionally imperturbable human being
  • 00:24:20
    whatever I think about this I think
  • 00:24:22
    about Marcus Aurelius the Roman Emperor
  • 00:24:26
    whose whole thing was
  • 00:24:30
    emotional mastery living a noble life
  • 00:24:33
    being grounded being rock solid it's
  • 00:24:36
    kind of a stoic ideal stoicism you can
  • 00:24:41
    develop that as well
  • 00:24:42
    and it's a lot easier these days
  • 00:24:44
    actually than it was 2,000 years ago
  • 00:24:47
    German during a Marcus's time because we
  • 00:24:50
    have so much more psychological
  • 00:24:53
    understanding we know pretty much
  • 00:24:54
    everything about how the human mind
  • 00:24:56
    works we've mapped out psychologically
  • 00:24:58
    almost every neurosis and also every
  • 00:25:01
    ideal and potential of the human mind
  • 00:25:04
    and every capability that there is so
  • 00:25:08
    all that knowledge is available to you
  • 00:25:09
    right now really easily really cheaply
  • 00:25:11
    very efficiently how about as a goal to
  • 00:25:18
    have deep understanding of how the world
  • 00:25:20
    works like real satisfying deep
  • 00:25:24
    knowledge that makes you feel at home in
  • 00:25:28
    the world because you literally
  • 00:25:29
    understand everything you need to
  • 00:25:31
    understand about life that's very
  • 00:25:34
    possible
  • 00:25:34
    in fact I'm feeling more and more that
  • 00:25:38
    I'm getting to that place and I'm going
  • 00:25:41
    to be there very soon and it's a really
  • 00:25:43
    satisfying feeling how about a really
  • 00:25:48
    successful intimate relationship that's
  • 00:25:51
    pretty rare a really successful
  • 00:25:54
    fulfilling intimate relationship that's
  • 00:25:56
    very rare very rare very very rare most
  • 00:26:03

    would think there are no answers to well
  • 00:32:31
    actually you can get experiential
  • 00:32:35
    answers to those questions very profound
  • 00:32:37
    answers that will completely transform
  • 00:32:40
    how you see life and people it will even
  • 00:32:45
    transform how you see life and death
  • 00:32:48
    including your own death how about as a
  • 00:32:56
    goal having the time to contemplate and
  • 00:32:58
    reflect on life to really appreciate and
  • 00:33:01
    see the beauty of life to savor that
  • 00:33:02
    beauty not just to be running around a
  • 00:33:07
    hamster in a wheel all the time frantic
  • 00:33:09
    and doing this and that and bouncing
  • 00:33:11
    between 20 different things with a full
  • 00:33:12
    schedule and trying to juggle ten
  • 00:33:14
    different balls in the air and being all
  • 00:33:17
    neurotic and and anxious about not
  • 00:33:19
    having time to even when you have your
  • 00:33:20
    victories your little petty victories
  • 00:33:22
    when you have those you don't have any
  • 00:33:24
    time to really
  • 00:33:24
    select and contemplate and savor them do
  • 00:33:26
    you know you're just rushing through you
  • 00:33:30
    just going through the motions how about
  • 00:33:32
    as a goal though that you actually make
  • 00:33:34
    that time for yourself you actually do
  • 00:33:37
    more with less time and you leave time
  • 00:33:40
    open to really savor and appreciate the
  • 00:33:42
    beauty of life and how about is your
  • 00:33:47
    ultimate goal that when you're lying on
  • 00:33:50
    your deathbed you die with a smile on
  • 00:33:54
    your face without fearing death without
  • 00:33:59
    all the regrets that normal people have
  • 00:34:01
    when they die but really understanding
  • 00:34:05
    that you went all out and you soaked in
  • 00:34:09
    everything that life had to offer all
  • 00:34:10
    the richness and all the possibility
  • 00:34:12
    that you really sees as much of it as
  • 00:34:15
    you could not perfectly but you seized
  • 00:34:16
    as much of it as you reasonably could be
  • 00:34:19
    expected to and dying knowing that you
  • 00:34:26
    accomplished everything there was to
  • 00:34:27
    accomplish here on earth and you've
  • 00:34:29
    savored everything that there was to
  • 00:34:31
    savor with this human body apparatus
  • 00:34:34
    that you've been given did you know that
  • 00:34:39
    that's possible for you as a goal these
  • 00:34:42
    things they might sound like a pipe
  • 00:34:43
    dream these might sound like wishful
  • 00:34:44
    thinking they're not these are all very
  • 00:34:48
    practical pragmatic things that you can
  • 00:34:51
    set as specific goals for yourself and
  • 00:34:54
    you can achieve them and not just like
  • 00:34:57
    checking off a bucket list that's not
  • 00:34:59
    what I'm talking about here I'm talking
  • 00:35:00
    about really transforming the very core
  • 00:35:05
    of your being to embody all of these
  • 00:35:07
    things and to not just achieve them but
  • 00:35:10
    to be fulfilled by them and to savor
  • 00:35:13
    them and to really appreciate them and
  • 00:35:15
    be grateful for them that's what I talk
  • 00:35:19
    about when I talk about my vision for a
  • 00:35:22
    self actualized life when I think about
  • 00:35:24
    self-actualization it's a pretty
  • 00:35:26
    abstract term it could mean a lot of
  • 00:35:29
    things for a lot of different people it
  • 00:35:31
    might just mean general self-improvement
  • 00:35:32
    to you it just might mean like Oh
  • 00:35:34
    getting a better job or earning some
  • 00:35:35
    more money or something I know to me
  • 00:35:37
    what it means is in me
  • 00:35:38
    these more noble higher consciousness
  • 00:35:41
    ideals the kind of stuff that most of us
  • 00:35:44
    don't even think about ever in life like
  • 00:35:48
    10 years for the average person 10 years
  • 00:35:50
    could go by and not one of these goals
  • 00:35:53
    that I talked about would even be
  • 00:35:54
    considered as possible or really be
  • 00:35:56
    seriously pursued so this is what's
  • 00:36:01
    possible for you now notice this is
  • 00:36:06
    different than just being rich or
  • 00:36:07
    successful I don't really like to push
  • 00:36:11
    being rich and just being successful for
  • 00:36:14
    me here the emphasis and the difference
  • 00:36:16
    is on personal emotional growth because
  • 00:36:21
    I know rich and successful people quote
  • 00:36:24
    unquote successful people who do not
  • 00:36:28
    touch many of these goals that I talked
  • 00:36:31
    about and I wouldn't really call them
  • 00:36:32
    self actualizing people because they're
  • 00:36:38
    not really emphasizing their own inner
  • 00:36:40
    transformation emotional growth maturity
  • 00:36:45
    spiritual growth you might say although
  • 00:36:47
    I really like that word spiritual growth
  • 00:36:49
    might be a good way to put it
  • 00:36:51
    so that's what's possible now I was
  • 00:36:58
    talking about some of the stuff with
  • 00:36:59
    with this kid at the retreat and he was
  • 00:37:03
    getting excited by these very curious
  • 00:37:04
    about me spent a lot of time he spent
  • 00:37:06
    several hours talking about all this
  • 00:37:07
    kind of stuff
  • 00:37:08
    I gave him various tips that I um that I
  • 00:37:12
    give you guys through through these
  • 00:37:13
    videos one of these he asked me says he
  • 00:37:17
    asked me so Leah are you happy now was
  • 00:37:21
    an interesting question because I
  • 00:37:22
    thought about them like yeah am i happy
  • 00:37:25
    and at the time I was actually quite
  • 00:37:28
    frustrated doing conscious work is is a
  • 00:37:31
    really surefire way to make oneself
  • 00:37:34
    frustrated and actually I was at that
  • 00:37:37
    point my life were I was thinking
  • 00:37:39
    through a lot of stuff working through a
  • 00:37:40
    lot of stuff I wasn't really happy but
  • 00:37:43
    one thing I could say is that I was
  • 00:37:45
    fulfilled
  • 00:37:50
    fulfillment versus happiness happiness
  • 00:37:53
    is like an emotion it comes it goes
  • 00:37:55
    sometimes you feel sad sometimes you
  • 00:37:57
    feel frustrated or angry or pissed off
  • 00:37:59
    or afraid or whatever it goes up and
  • 00:38:02
    down fulfillment though fulfillment is
  • 00:38:06
    what you experience when you're on the
  • 00:38:09
    self actualizing journey when you know
  • 00:38:12
    that you really are self actualizing
  • 00:38:14
    when you've started when you've gotten
  • 00:38:16
    past the couple first years of real you
  • 00:38:19
    know rocky ground or you're falling off
  • 00:38:22
    track a lot you're not sure if any of
  • 00:38:23
    this stuff works once you get past that
  • 00:38:25
    and you finally commit to self actually
  • 00:38:27
    [ __ ] and you see that it's possible you
  • 00:38:29
    see that all this is possible and you're
  • 00:38:31
    going for a now full-bore on and stuff
  • 00:38:36
    is clicking for you
  • 00:38:37
    that's when fulfillment starts to come
  • 00:38:40
    fulfillment it's just like this general
  • 00:38:43
    sense of that you've got life handled or
  • 00:38:48
    that even those aspects of life that you
  • 00:38:50
    don't have handled you'll handle those
  • 00:38:51
    and then ultimately you see the beauty
  • 00:38:54
    of life you see how much there is to
  • 00:38:57
    appreciate and you know even though I'm
  • 00:39:00
    not happy all the time you know I would
  • 00:39:03
    bet that most of you think that I'm
  • 00:39:04
    happier than I actually am on a daily
  • 00:39:06
    basis which is false that's that's a
  • 00:39:11
    wrong assumption on your part I'm not
  • 00:39:12
    that happy but what you probably
  • 00:39:14
    underestimate us how fulfilled I am
  • 00:39:17
    generally speaking like I'm at the point
  • 00:39:20
    in my life and I'm not trying to brag
  • 00:39:21
    here but I'm just trying to show you
  • 00:39:23
    like what's possible because most people
  • 00:39:25
    don't believe that this is possible it
  • 00:39:27
    sounds hokey
  • 00:39:28
    and you know what 5-10 years ago I
  • 00:39:31
    probably wouldn't have believed it as
  • 00:39:33
    well but right now I'm at the point my
  • 00:39:36
    life where I get tears tears of joy like
  • 00:39:40
    literally tears of joy that pour down my
  • 00:39:43
    cheeks at least once a week when I
  • 00:39:46
    reflect on the quality of my life and
  • 00:39:48
    also the trajectory of my life and also
  • 00:39:51
    what I've accomplished in my life and
  • 00:39:52
    what I'm doing and the impact that I'm
  • 00:39:55
    having on other human beings so like
  • 00:39:58
    tears like tears right um this is one of
  • 00:40:03
    the most profound
  • 00:40:04
    own feelings that you'll get and
  • 00:40:06
    probably the most inspiring reason to
  • 00:40:10
    become self actualizing and to do this
  • 00:40:13
    work is because at one point you will
  • 00:40:15
    reach this point in your life I
  • 00:40:16
    guarantee it if you do this work where
  • 00:40:18
    you will just sit down you will look at
  • 00:40:20
    life and you'll just have tears thinking
  • 00:40:28
    about how privileged you are to be able
  • 00:40:39
    to to experience this because this is
  • 00:40:44
    very easy for me to imagine a life where
  • 00:40:46
    I was born and I grew up and just the
  • 00:40:49
    universe reality or society or whatever
  • 00:40:52
    was so constructed that basically I was
  • 00:40:54
    not able to get any of this right none
  • 00:40:58
    of this was bit would be possible either
  • 00:41:00
    because I'm living in some sort of
  • 00:41:01
    dictatorship regime or because human
  • 00:41:05
    technology hasn't evolved let's say if
  • 00:41:07
    I'm living 10,000 years ago or because
  • 00:41:11
    because we don't have the knowledge and
  • 00:41:14
    information available to allow this kind
  • 00:41:15
    of stuff or because it's way too
  • 00:41:17
    expensive like it might have been a
  • 00:41:20
    thousand years ago or because the
  • 00:41:24
    government doesn't have the laws that
  • 00:41:25
    allow it or even because human
  • 00:41:28
    psychology is different and it doesn't
  • 00:41:29
    allow it what if you were born a
  • 00:41:31
    chimpanzee self-actualization would
  • 00:41:35
    probably not work for you so well right
  • 00:41:36
    and you probably couldn't really do the
  • 00:41:38
    things you could do as a human being
  • 00:41:40
    we're really privileged to have been
  • 00:41:42
    born as human beings and not something
  • 00:41:44
    else in a sense we're also cursed but if
  • 00:41:49
    you can conquer that curse you can get
  • 00:41:55
    to the to the highest potential of
  • 00:41:57
    humanity that's a really beautiful thing
  • 00:42:01
    it really starts to change how you see
  • 00:42:03
    humanity for a long time in my youth
  • 00:42:06
    when I was in my kind of philosophical
  • 00:42:08
    phase I'm doing a lot of philosophy I
  • 00:42:09
    was I was very misanthropic and I kind
  • 00:42:12
    of hated humanity hated society and
  • 00:42:14
    hated all the evil stuff that it does
  • 00:42:18
    and there's a you know there's a lot of
  • 00:42:19
    truth to that low consciousness
  • 00:42:22
    humanities really ugly but also what
  • 00:42:25
    starts to happen once you do the self
  • 00:42:26
    actualization we can start to see that
  • 00:42:28
    actually there's high conscious humanity
  • 00:42:29
    - and that's basically what you're
  • 00:42:32
    working for and you're working towards
  • 00:42:34
    you're working towards moving yourself
  • 00:42:36
    out of low conscious humanity towards
  • 00:42:38
    higher conscious humanity and when you
  • 00:42:40
    get here and you live from this place
  • 00:42:42
    what happens is that all this nastiness
  • 00:42:45
    over here just kind of dissolves it all
  • 00:42:47
    becomes understood you just become
  • 00:42:49
    peaceful about it you accept that you
  • 00:42:51
    understand it you can even love it
  • 00:42:54
    that's what it means to be a fully
  • 00:42:57
    integrated and whole human being you
  • 00:43:02
    accept reality as it is not as some
  • 00:43:08
    ideal but as it actually is and this is
  • 00:43:13
    out of most people's wildest
  • 00:43:19
    imaginations about what's possible I
  • 00:43:21
    can't really even describe and
  • 00:43:24
    articulate all the crazy [ __ ] that's
  • 00:43:27
    possible all the amazing stuff that's
  • 00:43:28
    possible for you in this work it's hard
  • 00:43:32
    I have to sit down and really think
  • 00:43:33
    about all this stuff before I came up
  • 00:43:34
    here and started talking about it
  • 00:43:35
    because there's so much and I really
  • 00:43:39
    struggle it takes me a lot of time
  • 00:43:40
    thinking about this stuff to fully
  • 00:43:42
    articulate in a concise way and this is
  • 00:43:47
    not a short video all these points so at
  • 00:43:54
    this point you might be wondering okay
  • 00:43:55
    Leo how do I self actualize what should
  • 00:43:57
    I do
  • 00:43:57
    how do we take this from the vision to
  • 00:44:00
    actual reality well it's true you need
  • 00:44:02
    both right you need the vision you need
  • 00:44:05
    the ideal to inspire you but that's not
  • 00:44:08
    enough this is not the secret this is
  • 00:44:11
    not Law of Attraction we just get a sick
  • 00:44:14
    back and just wish and have your vision
  • 00:44:15
    and it's all done for you
  • 00:44:17
    no not that easy I'll give you a couple
  • 00:44:22
    of steps no real practical steps you can
  • 00:44:24
    start doing today step number one is
  • 00:44:27
    knowledge you need knowledge to self
  • 00:44:29
    actualize one thing you're lacking is
  • 00:44:32
    accurate high-quality information how do
  • 00:44:39
    you acquire that well first you make a
  • 00:44:40
    commitment to become a lifelong learner
  • 00:44:43
    learning should be a top priority in
  • 00:44:45
    your life learning through thinking
  • 00:44:48
    through reading books through talking to
  • 00:44:50
    people through going to seminars and etc
  • 00:44:53
    etc all the different ways you can learn
  • 00:44:55
    taking notes keeping a journal keeping a
  • 00:44:58
    diary this is mandatory this is not
  • 00:45:03
    optional learning does not stop after
  • 00:45:05
    high school or college or after your PhD
  • 00:45:08
    is done here's a really good tip invest
  • 00:45:15
    10% of your income every year into
  • 00:45:17
    learning that means if you make fifty
  • 00:45:21
    thousand five thousand a year invest it
  • 00:45:25
    into books seminars self-help products
  • 00:45:29
    therapy coaching or whatever other way
  • 00:45:31
    you can use to learn get creative with
  • 00:45:34
    it you'll actually find it's quite
  • 00:45:37
    challenging to spend ten percent of your
  • 00:45:38
    income on learning if you are in a
  • 00:45:40
    hundred thousand dollars a year right
  • 00:45:41
    now then that means ten thousand dollars
  • 00:45:44
    a year on learning and then once you
  • 00:45:50
    spend that money then you have to create
  • 00:45:52
    the time to actually read all those
  • 00:45:54
    books or listen to all those seminars
  • 00:45:56
    and so forth step number two start
  • 00:46:02
    making small changes in your life right
  • 00:46:03
    now you don't need any huge drastic
  • 00:46:06
    things like quitting your job and
  • 00:46:08
    becoming a millionaire to start this
  • 00:46:10
    process so the first thing you're going
  • 00:46:13
    to do is become a learner you can do
  • 00:46:15
    that right now even if you're poor you
  • 00:46:17
    can go buy a couple of books for twenty
  • 00:46:19
    bucks that will change your life
  • 00:46:22
    second step like I said is sort making
  • 00:46:25
    small changes what I mean by that is
  • 00:46:26
    eliminate toxic habits the most toxic
  • 00:46:28
    have is you have eliminate those start
  • 00:46:31
    building good habits start building a
  • 00:46:33
    strong morning routine healthy morning
  • 00:46:36
    routine that inspires you and energizes
  • 00:46:39
    you and I have other videos and episodes
  • 00:46:42
    where I talk about bad habits good
  • 00:46:45
    habits and so forth I'll give you a lot
  • 00:46:46
    of ideas for different habits you can
  • 00:46:48
    create meditation would be one great
  • 00:46:50
    habit to install one or two bad habits
  • 00:46:54
    to remove would be eating unhealthy
  • 00:46:58
    foods especially wheat products lots of
  • 00:47:00
    sugar eliminate those or if you drink or
  • 00:47:04
    if you smoke or ingest any kind of drugs
  • 00:47:07
    eliminating those or limiting your
  • 00:47:09
    negative thinking habit eliminating your
  • 00:47:14
    social media / internet / TV habit so
  • 00:47:21
    you get the idea there these are little
  • 00:47:24
    things you can do without quitting your
  • 00:47:26
    job and without leaving your marriage
  • 00:47:27
    and so forth little things start with
  • 00:47:29
    little things it will add up before you
  • 00:47:33
    can make really big inspiring changes in
  • 00:47:35
    your life sometimes you just got to get
  • 00:47:36
    like the basics down you can't make a
  • 00:47:39
    big inspiring change in your life win
  • 00:47:41
    for example you go binge drinking every
  • 00:47:43
    Friday and Saturday and just totally
  • 00:47:45
    waste yourself not going to work so fix
  • 00:47:48
    that first fix the basics there's a lot
  • 00:47:51
    of [ __ ] you could fix right now in your
  • 00:47:52
    life that's just like very basic stuff
  • 00:47:56
    and then emotional mastery focus your
  • 00:48:00
    attention on mastering your emotions at
  • 00:48:02
    least a little bit especially the most
  • 00:48:04
    negative emotions for example if you
  • 00:48:06
    have crippling low self-esteem if you
  • 00:48:08
    have anger issues if you have rage
  • 00:48:09
    issues if you're constantly critical of
  • 00:48:12
    the world if you're constantly negative
  • 00:48:14
    if you're a troll if you're crippled by
  • 00:48:21
    fear if you have a lot of negative
  • 00:48:23
    limiting beliefs and if you play the
  • 00:48:25
    victim all the time and you blame other
  • 00:48:27
    people for why your life is so miserable
  • 00:48:31
    then those are all areas you need to
  • 00:48:34
    start addressing now how do you dress
  • 00:48:36
    all those there as well I have a lot of
  • 00:48:38
    videos on it all these various topics
  • 00:48:40
    but also you can go read books seminars
  • 00:48:43
    see step number one for that it's not
  • 00:48:46
    rocket science here all this stuff
  • 00:48:48
    solutions to all these problems are well
  • 00:48:51
    researched well documented well known
  • 00:48:52
    and they're all proven and they work if
  • 00:48:55
    you go out and find the right ones so
  • 00:48:57
    that was
  • 00:48:58
    number two now step number three once
  • 00:49:00
    you get a little bit of that stuff
  • 00:49:01
    handled kind of the toxic dysfunctional
  • 00:49:04
    stuff then step number three should be
  • 00:49:06
    find your life purpose and man this is a
  • 00:49:09
    very deep topic it's a very important
  • 00:49:11
    topic you need to find your core
  • 00:49:13
    essential purpose in life you need to
  • 00:49:14
    find out who you are authentically who
  • 00:49:17
    you are as a human being
  • 00:49:18
    as a personality and I'm not going to
  • 00:49:22
    talk much about that here but if you're
  • 00:49:25
    really interested in that and you want
  • 00:49:26
    to really a that then go check out my
  • 00:49:29
    ultimate life purpose course it's a 25
  • 00:49:32
    hour course plus even more material that
  • 00:49:36
    I'm adding to it soon uh that's just
  • 00:49:39
    some of the most life transforming
  • 00:49:41
    material if you go and do those
  • 00:49:42
    exercises that I tell you that course it
  • 00:49:44
    will change your life that's step number
  • 00:49:49
    three you need a life purpose I don't
  • 00:49:50
    just say that because I have a product
  • 00:49:51
    no don't get that wrong I have a product
  • 00:49:54
    because this is such an important point
  • 00:49:56
    that's why the product was created
  • 00:49:58
    I didn't just create a random product I
  • 00:50:02
    found my life purpose I discovered what
  • 00:50:06
    was most important to create a self
  • 00:50:07
    actualized life and it just so happened
  • 00:50:10
    that it was live purpose and most people
  • 00:50:13
    have no idea what their life purpose is
  • 00:50:15
    so this is a critical component that
  • 00:50:17
    virtually everybody is missing you need
  • 00:50:19
    this component otherwise you will not be
  • 00:50:21
    fully self actualized not even close
  • 00:50:24
    and step number four is and it's a
  • 00:50:29
    little more advanced become financially
  • 00:50:32
    independent when you free yourself from
  • 00:50:36
    your nine-to-five job and you become
  • 00:50:38
    your own boss or at least you are not
  • 00:50:41
    reliant and you know what's the word
  • 00:50:46
    you're not desperate for money and
  • 00:50:50
    you're not working 80-hour days because
  • 00:50:53
    your boss is forcing you to otherwise
  • 00:50:55
    you can get fired when you can
  • 00:50:57
    disconnect from that and set your own
  • 00:50:59
    sane schedule and your own sane work
  • 00:51:02
    hours and also pay yourself well support
  • 00:51:06
    yourself financially this gives you a
  • 00:51:08
    level of confidence and freedom and
  • 00:51:10
    ability to then go out
  • 00:51:11
    and really do the deep
  • 00:51:15
    self-actualization work and fully and
  • 00:51:17
    richly enjoy life so that's step number
  • 00:51:21
    four I'm giving you a broad outline here
  • 00:51:23
    so I'm not filling in all the details
  • 00:51:24
    you're going to go find out how these
  • 00:51:26
    are big goals it'll take you probably
  • 00:51:29
    multiple years to work on some of these
  • 00:51:31
    goals like your life purpose like
  • 00:51:33
    becoming financially independent but you
  • 00:51:36
    need to start thinking about this stuff
  • 00:51:37
    in planning ahead that's it those are
  • 00:51:43
    the four steps if you do those four
  • 00:51:45
    steps I'm going to be pretty confident
  • 00:51:47
    that you're going to be well on your way
  • 00:51:48
    to self-actualization and if you don't
  • 00:51:55
    do these four steps or you skip some of
  • 00:51:56
    them then I'm going to be very worried
  • 00:51:58
    for you and I don't think you're going
  • 00:52:00
    to get there so in conclusion your life
  • 00:52:04
    is short live your life like you have a
  • 00:52:08
    burning midlife crisis right now I don't
  • 00:52:11
    care how old you are if you're 15 if
  • 00:52:13
    you're 20 if you're 30 if you're 40 for
  • 00:52:17
    60 right now is your midlife crisis
  • 00:52:20
    moment I've had at least two or three
  • 00:52:22
    midlife crises already and I'm only 30
  • 00:52:24
    that's a good thing get them out of the
  • 00:52:27
    way early what else have you got to do
  • 00:52:30
    with your life can you come up with a
  • 00:52:32
    better vision what else have you got
  • 00:52:34
    go with the best vision that you find
  • 00:52:36
    available whether you came up with it or
  • 00:52:38
    you want to use my vision or you want to
  • 00:52:40
    use somebody else's vision you find some
  • 00:52:41
    better vision some book somewhere go do
  • 00:52:43
    that but I doubt you'll find something
  • 00:52:48
    much bigger than what I outline for you
  • 00:52:51
    here because this encapsulate a whole
  • 00:52:54
    lot of [ __ ]
  • 00:52:56
    this encapsulate basically what it means
  • 00:52:58
    to be an extraordinary human being what
  • 00:53:03
    else have you got to do what TV playing
  • 00:53:06
    World of Warcraft going out and banging
  • 00:53:11
    girls getting drunk on the weekends
  • 00:53:14
    working 80-hour weeks at your law firm
  • 00:53:16
    for what what what the [ __ ] are you
  • 00:53:19
    doing are you thinking about where
  • 00:53:24
    that's going to lead you
  • 00:53:25
    in 20 or 40 years keep doing that think
  • 00:53:33
    wiser and hold this vision in your mind
  • 00:53:38
    every single day every single day
  • 00:53:45
    because there's nothing better that you
  • 00:53:47
    can do with your life there's nothing
  • 00:53:50
    that will bring you more joy or more
  • 00:53:51
    satisfaction or more fulfillment right

    committed to releasing new videos and
  • 00:54:17
    episodes every single week covering all
  • 00:54:21
    the aspects and facets that you need to
  • 00:54:23
    master life and to inspire you in to
  • 00:54:28
    motivate you to really keep you on track
  • 00:54:31
    my mission even more so than just giving
  • 00:54:34
    you information and content that you can
  • 00:54:35
    use and techniques is to give you the
  • 00:54:37
    vision that you need to remind you of
  • 00:54:40
    when you're off track because you know
  • 00:54:44
    what the whole difficulty with this
  • 00:54:46
    vision that I gave you is that you're
  • 00:54:48
    going to fall off track you're going to
  • 00:54:49
    forget you're going to go unconscious
  • 00:54:50
    you're going to fall back into your old
  • 00:54:51
    habits it's emotionally difficult you're
  • 00:54:53
    going to struggle it's not easy this is
  • 00:54:56
    not a get-rich-quick solution so the
  • 00:55:01
    point of actualize that org is to be a
  • 00:55:03
    resource here to inspire you and to
  • 00:55:05
    remind you and to keep you conscious
  • 00:55:07
    when you go unconscious and to keep you
  • 00:55:09
    on track so one commitment you can make
  • 00:55:13
    that would really move you forward on
  • 00:55:15
    this journey is to watch one video per
  • 00:55:19
    week commit yourself to that just so you
