1:46

that I have you know where you calling

1:53

gotta be so much he's a can talk

1:57

some an arena just like ah. Good

2:00

to be with you again, Charlie. It's such a pleasure. A

2:03

lot of people do intros and they'll talk about,

2:07

they'll talk about all your exciting

2:09

things that you're having, but I have a personal one that I wanted

2:11

to talk to you about. When

2:13

I first met you, we were

2:15

shooting Impulsive and I was at

2:17

your house and it

2:20

was the first time in my life that

2:22

I ever met somebody that I was like,

2:25

I would be blessed if I was half the man that you

2:28

are. Oh, you're overstating that math,

2:30

but thank you, McIghner. Truly, truly, I'm

2:32

not, I'll tell you why. I walked

2:34

around and you could tell who a

2:36

man is by his surroundings and

2:38

from Billy to Rob to Casey to every

2:42

single person you have around

2:44

are so unbelievably joyful and

2:46

peaceful to be around. And

2:48

I got a second to meet your wife

2:51

and after we were done, you

2:53

were showing me your slide and all

2:55

of the trophies and the gym and the

2:58

bunker that you had and we're

3:00

walking around. I'm looking at, I thought was

3:02

ocean, but it's the pool. And I

3:05

sat there and I was like, you

3:07

figured it out at such a level

3:09

where it's, there's

3:12

a prayer that I've been saying now. When

3:14

I was a child, I used to be like, God used me for

3:16

something good. Yes, that's my prayer before I go on stage every time.

3:18

And I feel like

3:21

both of us have gotten at least to a place where

3:24

we have done something for God and his

3:26

works here. And when

3:29

I sat there, there's this prayer

3:31

where I go, I don't wanna be great in

3:33

mankind's eyes. I wanna be great in your eyes.

3:36

And I want him to look down

3:38

from heaven with all of the greats

3:41

that are from the Bible and be like, that's our guy.

3:43

And when I met you, I can't

3:46

imagine what it feels like to be

3:49

anywhere near the accomplishments that you have

3:51

done for other people. When

3:55

you look up at the stars, right? You see a

3:57

bunch of stars, but there's always one that's so much

3:59

brighter than the. rest of them and I

4:01

truly feel that's how you look like from

4:03

heaven. You

4:06

might as well cut off now

4:08

after that. You're beyond kind but

4:10

I am very blessed and I

4:12

think it takes both. I don't have the delusion that

4:15

it's me. I know that things come

4:17

through you want to serve something more than yourself. That sounds

4:19

trite to some people but it's really real for me. My

4:21

prayer before I go on stage every time I have this

4:24

physical set of motions and things I do with

4:26

my body get myself ready so I can explode

4:28

on stage and hold 20,000 people for 12 hours a day

4:32

for five, six, seven days in a row when

4:34

they won't sit for a three-hour movie. Somebody spent

4:36

three hundred dollars to do but my prayer always

4:38

before I misused me Lord and I didn't visualize the

4:40

impact to where people be when we're done and

4:43

so I've been really blessed and I've also had the

4:45

privilege of doing this. This is gonna be my 47th

4:47

year to hold you. 31. Okay

4:50

so I've been doing it 16 years longer

4:52

than you've been alive to give you an idea so

4:54

I could be an idiot at this point and I'd

4:56

have to notice there are patterns that make the difference

4:58

in the quality of a person's life and their spirit

5:00

and their heart and their body and their emotions and

5:03

their business and their careers and hopefully if you keep

5:05

growing and you're trying to serve something more than yourself

5:07

you're inspired. I really believe life

5:09

supports whatever supports more of life. God

5:12

the universe so everyone has different beliefs in mind

5:14

personally as God but supports something

5:16

that supports more. In other words if you

5:18

get a desire you know desire right Latin

5:20

means of the father so if you have

5:23

a desire you already have the ability

5:25

to fulfill it but certain desires will

5:27

meet your needs and you're part of life and so

5:29

you get insights for that but then suddenly when I

5:31

married a woman had been married twice before me and

5:33

had children from both of them and I adopted them

5:36

as my own all of a sudden I had

5:38

a I was 24 and had a 17 year

5:40

old son an 11 year old daughter a five

5:42

year old one on the way I don't know

5:44

there was a different level I need to serve

5:46

something even more and I'm trying to serve community

5:48

if you're I'm not talking about virtue signaling I'm

5:50

talking about well you know in your soul when

5:53

you know you're trying to serve something more than

5:55

yourself you get insights that are indescribable And they've

5:57

come to me at all the right times when I've needed

5:59

to. Seven

6:04

years, my forty seventh you're doing this. I

6:06

just feel so blessed and a deeply described

6:08

her are the greatest blessing my life, my

6:10

family and my chosen family once I surround

6:13

myself. Whether just beautiful souls are wrong, on

6:15

a mission and on our mission is really

6:17

have people have the most extraordinary life possible.

6:19

And that means live on their terms not

6:21

mine. Whatever they want they want, be closer

6:23

to God. They what they want to build

6:25

a beautiful family. They want to build a

6:27

business. They want to transform the body. They

6:29

want to move to a different economic level.

6:31

I've been obsessed with finding answers for my.

6:34

Whole life and having tools really work. but

6:36

it's It's guided by the spirit of service

6:38

and people feel that if they think it's

6:40

only when except with me for twelve hours

6:42

a day he can take that he of

6:44

day after day. And and that's how you

6:46

win people over because you're not trying to

6:48

win over to you, don't win him over

6:50

to what's really possible for them and put

6:52

a plan together for it so I'm very

6:54

regretful. So thank you Prose kind words. they

6:56

killed over the top. To me I'm not

6:58

gonna become something of office manager sort of

7:00

a plan. A hassle arena is such a

7:02

pleasure to deserve a diplomat. My first thing

7:04

before leaving. Games can have so much stuff at

7:07

I'd love to laugh. Now I'm sitting here. As

7:09

a student, I'm not sitting here. Is your like

7:11

I'm I'm taking a moment. Also, god willing that's

7:13

clever as watching this could take this as well.

7:15

On. You. Tube you went from being

7:18

an eleven year old named. Boy.

7:20

Who's. Hungry on Thanksgiving watching your father

7:22

slammed the door on somebody say says

7:25

fantasies family to being in a helicopter

7:27

thinking that the people that are coming

7:29

to your. Your.

7:31

Venice is gonna be stuck as of

7:33

the traffic, but then you realize that

7:35

the traffic is people that are coming

7:37

to that sewing their to seating a

7:39

billion people. And nailing it two.

7:41

Years before it was even

7:43

scheduled. You went from.

7:46

Respectfully. The bottom all the way

7:48

to the top. Now I know

7:51

that is from the Grace of God. I

7:53

agree on. But. Who

7:55

is your Tony? Who. was the

7:57

man that opens your spirit up and

8:00

and molded you into the man who's gonna mold

8:02

many men? I

8:04

think it's never one thing besides

8:07

God. I don't think it's any

8:09

one thing. I had so many great mentors a

8:11

long way. I had a mother that was very volatile,

8:13

but also really beautiful. I wouldn't be who I am

8:15

without her. But when she drank

8:17

alcohol and took prescription drugs, Valium, she

8:20

got very, very violent. And I had a younger brother,

8:22

five years younger, and a younger sister, seven years younger.

8:25

And I had to be able

8:27

to become a practical psychologist and be able

8:29

to manage her spaints so she didn't

8:31

get violent. And I was five when

8:33

in high school, I was telling people the difference. I'm

8:35

six, seven now, I say it's personal growth that made

8:37

that happen, right? But I grew 10 inches in New

8:39

York as of a tumor, but before that I was

8:42

really small. My mom was small. And plus I was

8:44

kind of getting trained. You did whatever she said, and

8:46

she would get crazy. I poured liquid soap down my

8:48

throat till I threw up, because

8:50

she said I was lying and I wasn't. And when somebody you

8:52

love is trying to harm you, it

8:56

does a weird thing to your head. But at the

8:58

same time, I just felt guided to know that, look,

9:00

all this is for a deeper reason. I don't know

9:02

what it is. I had no clue, but I do

9:04

now. I mean, it made me that practical psychologist and

9:06

those skills just grew and grew and grew. And

9:09

so along the way, I had some great teachers.

9:12

I met a man when I was 17 by the name of

9:14

Jim Rohn. I first took a speed reading class because

9:16

I was so obsessed with finding a

9:18

way to learn. I always wanted to learn anything I

9:20

could, Was this when you were a

9:22

janitor? Yeah, I was a janitor. It was one

9:24

of those literally in junior high school and high school. I worked

9:26

as a janitor because my family was very poor. We'd

9:29

have enough money for food a lot of times. And

9:31

that's why at 11, we got fed at Thanksgiving. And

9:34

that was probably the first huge breakthrough for me.

9:36

I always loved people, but I

9:38

think when somebody who didn't

9:40

want even want credit fed my family,

9:43

it made me believe strangers care. My father had four

9:45

different fathers and my fourth father always said, no, it

9:47

gives a damn. And it looked that way where we

9:49

lived. It certainly felt that way. But

9:52

then it's like I had this pure evidence that somebody

9:55

cared about our family, doesn't even know who we are.

9:57

And they looked out for this this way. Stranger

10:00

care about me, I could care about strangers, and that was I

10:02

think the first step. The second step was

10:04

just one of the answers because I wanted to get

10:06

out of that environment, there was nothing like that, and

10:09

so I started reading as the solution. I could

10:11

read Emerson's essays, As a Man Thinketh, you

10:13

know, anything that would project, I read biographies

10:15

and autobiographies, and that helped me too because

10:17

I saw some of the most incredible people

10:20

in the world had incredibly

10:22

rough lives, but that didn't stop

10:24

them. And so it gave me a model in my head of

10:26

what was possible. And then, you know,

10:29

a combination of guidance and prayer, and then I

10:31

meet these people along the way because I think

10:33

everybody's journey is the hero's journey.

10:35

You know, if you look at all the stories,

10:37

you know the hero's journey, what happens? Your life

10:39

is a certain way, and maybe you're somewhat comfortable

10:41

or bored, and then something comes along and challenges

10:44

you. You get diagnosed with

10:46

a tumor in your brain. I've had that

10:48

experience. You lose a mother or father or

10:50

all of them, which I've buried them all,

10:52

gone through that experience. You get somebody who,

10:54

you know, you thought is your friend who

10:56

betrays you. You, you know, have a financial

10:58

issue. There's so many things coming, but that

11:00

challenge comes for a purpose, and the purpose

11:02

is, I believe, the universe and God calling

11:04

you to go on the journey on an

11:06

adventure to discover who you really are, to

11:08

find the deeper parts of yourself so you

11:10

have something more to share and contribute to

11:12

people. And so when that call comes, you

11:15

know, if you are willing to go on the journey,

11:17

if you don't sit there and just give up or

11:19

complain or come up with excuses, then you have to

11:21

step into the unknown. And I stepped into the unknown.

11:24

I had no net, and I put myself on the

11:26

line to do things that seemed crazy. I'd get up

11:28

and challenge psychologists and psychiatrists and give me your

11:30

worst patient. I'll handle them in less than an

11:32

hour and produce the result when they've worked on

11:34

it for seven years with a snake phobia. Then

11:36

I pulled it off. I learned skills and I pulled it off, and

11:39

then all of a sudden people are coming to me for everything,

11:41

you know, or, you know,

11:43

going to the US Army and saying to the

11:45

general there, I can take any training program in

11:47

the Army, cut it in half and increase the

11:49

competency. And he said, you're crazy. I said, no,

11:51

I'm expensive. And we appreciate it.

11:53

Crazy expensive. But when

11:56

I made a deal with, I get nothing unless I produced

11:58

the result. Right. So I have no net. Do you

12:00

follow me? So when you go

12:02

on a journey like that and you put

12:04

yourself on the line where you can't afford

12:06

to fail, you don't usually. Usually the human

12:08

psyche and spirit finds a way, especially if

12:11

it's trying to serve something bigger. And so

12:13

as I did that, I met new people. I had great

12:15

new teachers. So I started with this man, Jim Rohn, when

12:17

I was 17. I worked

12:19

for a man. I had three jobs. I'm

12:22

still in high school at the time. And my

12:24

father said, you know, this guy used to be

12:26

such a loser. And now he's so successful. And

12:28

he was late 70s. He's

12:30

buying houses in Orange County, California and fixing

12:33

them and flipping them. Right. So

12:35

that was like wealth to me. Right. So he

12:37

needed somebody help move stuff. He's trying

12:39

to do as cheaply as possible. So I volunteered

12:41

and got paid and I worked super hard. And

12:44

so the guy took me to lunch. He goes,

12:46

man, he's, I really, you're the strongest, hardest worker.

12:48

You got the best work ethic. You got a

12:50

great attitude. I said, well, I want to interview

12:52

you. I'd like to ask you a couple of

12:54

questions. He goes, okay. I said,

12:56

my dad said, you used to be such a loser. I'm not even successful.

12:58

I wasn't trying to say anything. Not only can you

13:00

do this, right? How'd you do it? I really wanted to

13:02

know because I wanted to know the pathway, right? I

13:07

was always looking for the path. How did he take that? He,

13:09

the first, your father said, well, then he kind of

13:12

laughed and said, well, it's probably pretty true. You know,

13:14

and he said, well, it started by me going to

13:16

a seminar. And he said,

13:18

wow, seminar. Now I'm figuring it out.

13:20

Yeah. It goes, I go, what's

13:22

the seminar? He goes, it's where this man who's super

13:24

successful over decades, he takes all the best of what

13:26

he's learned and he teaches it to you like in

13:29

an evening, like three and a half, four hours or

13:31

a weekend. You know, if you go for longer programs

13:33

and it can save you a decade or two.

13:36

I was like, wow, I've never even heard of such a thing.

13:38

I said, could you get me in? And

13:41

he said, yeah, but he didn't have

13:43

any follow up. So I said, well, will you? And he said, no.

13:46

What do you mean? You just set up a great way.

13:48

He goes, because if you don't pay for it, you

13:50

won't value it. I said, look, man, I make 40

13:52

bucks a week as a janitor. I'm here working for

13:54

you. I'm going to school. I'm supporting my family. I

13:56

said, you know, if you can get me in, it

13:58

would help. He goes, no. So how much

14:00

is it? He said $35. Now $35 would be like $250

14:03

now to give you an idea of inflation. So

14:06

it was a week's pay, but he was to speak for

14:08

me. I bet if you asked him in a nicer way,

14:11

he probably would have paid that. Hahahah. Anybody didn't call him

14:13

a loser up front? Yeah, I never thought he would be

14:15

a piece of shit. I'd just get the dough, man. Hey

14:17

guys, just a reminder that the merch is out for a

14:19

few more days. So if you haven't got a chance to

14:21

go to the heart of David's Outco, go ahead and click

14:23

the link in my description. Or you can shop on YouTube.

14:25

Thank you guys so much and I hope you guys enjoy

14:27

the rest of the podcast. Hahahah. But

14:30

I took the money. I thought it was the biggest decision

14:32

of my life. And I went and sat

14:34

in this seminar. I drove up my 1968

14:38

Volkswagen Baja Bug that exploded when I turned it

14:40

off and handed the keys to the valet and

14:42

went to this business seminar. With a blue

14:45

leisure suit, I got at the thrift store and fake gold

14:47

chains. I was going to make this happen. And I sat

14:49

in his room with all these older people and he was

14:51

talking and I'd read so many of these books. I took

14:53

this reading course. I was trying to read a book a

14:55

day. I didn't, but I read 700 books in seven years.

14:57

I'd read a lot by that time. It's almost like Cat

14:59

Williams. Hahaha. Yeah,

15:01

right. And then I'm finishing

15:04

his sentences and so then I eventually got the

15:06

chance to go to work for him. And I

15:08

went to work and I learned to give speeches

15:10

because I really believed in what he was doing.

15:12

And then it just grew. Then I eventually got

15:14

exposed to what's called neuro-linguistic programming. Some of your

15:16

audience may have heard of NLP. In

15:18

the 70s, it was the breakthrough when it comes

15:20

to creating change. And you could learn how

15:23

to eliminate a phobia in less than an hour, not

15:25

seven years. And I, unlike the therapists

15:27

who had to unlearn what they learned, I

15:29

convinced this man, John Grinder, let me come in the class.

15:31

I said, I'm not like them. I'll just take what you

15:33

do and run with it, man. I'll make it happen. And

15:36

I was literally putting my ear to the door at the

15:38

Holiday Inn by the LAX. So he finally said, I'm going

15:40

to charge you. Come on in and do it. So I

15:42

went through the six months training and I learned these tools.

15:44

And then I got on radio up

15:46

in Canada. So my career really

15:48

launched and I'll show the heck up. I give you a picture. And

15:51

this I didn't know was a shock jock show.

15:53

In those days, there weren't many shock jocks. If

15:55

you don't mind, what is that? It's

15:57

like, you know, your morning group that's, you know,

15:59

like. Some kind of thing when he. Couldn't.

16:04

And so I was young I know going

16:06

in the same sorts idea radio show and

16:08

he starts kind of talk to me and

16:10

he brings this psychiatry starts and I've been

16:13

talking about what I can wipe out any

16:15

phobia you come see me I don't care

16:17

what the problem is of one our i

16:19

am one stop therapist or oh and what

16:21

rights and subs on so sooner people call

16:23

you discover that yes yes yes yes you

16:25

know and up and then a psychiatrist gossip

16:27

he says you know your starlets and you're

16:29

a liar people like you should not be

16:31

lot on the radio. And

16:34

I pause. and I'm a nice guy. but it's

16:36

parts. Can assess your finer.

16:38

I'm. From the streets I'm a

16:40

punchy twice Tobacco Try to be elegantly

16:42

simple syrup. Let me ask you questions.

16:45

I. Said that. Are you

16:47

scientists? Isn't. Of course I'm

16:49

a physician. As a great

16:52

some of your scientists you'd never make

16:54

an assumption and you'd want to have

16:56

a way to test the hypothesis. An

16:58

educated guess I sets of your hypothesis

17:00

is a muslims in a while because

17:02

you never seen someone get results are

17:04

rapidly So I said the best way

17:06

to test hypothesis is for be worth

17:08

one of your precious I said once

17:10

the undoing of free seminar, the holiday

17:12

and. Two nights amount announced

17:14

right, got enough money and I said

17:16

17:18

space and somebody you've never been able.

17:20

Curious and I'm sure you have votes

17:22

Reform, Pause and five one so that

17:24

it he goes. And I said an

17:26

altered America's like make my patients do

17:28

this as wasn't our patience to blow

17:30

to try something new. And.

17:33

Protecting me when we passed. As

17:35

long pause what what this one woman in oh

17:37

17:39

night he had dreams that a snake bites are

17:41

in the face and of we've had dreams like

17:44

17:46

pops out she'd wake up and if it happens

17:48

Seven years into the and I said

19:48

This wasn't my technique is technique, I learned

19:50

from it'll be But I was willing to

19:52

put myself on the line. That was a

19:54

secret. Burn Bridges rights. I had his seats

19:56

and sure enough it took me about fifteen,

19:58

twenty minutes and people watch. He

20:04

also. Makes no move and I

20:06

said day party? Philosophical? Really?

20:08

Com? Is it okay? Just

20:10

one second I walk mine on a desk

20:12

back behind me. Now have a bad know

20:15

I swear to God and I come as

expensive as is the largest. They put the

20:19

audio c the bag moving right so they

20:21

20:30

Going to say is that stay with it

20:32

Rights and and everything They change their body.

20:34

This change in her nervous systems that a

20:37

great. It wasn't simple techniques com nancy spirit

this make swimming. Think it was made before. And

20:42

I said how do you feel about snakes

20:44

and schools are not very attractive sense as

20:46

the sailed around it's they want to. So

20:48

many points what launch boats And I said

20:50

well, would you be willing to hold it

20:52

Schools, they're not very attractive. I said look,

20:54

you were seeking out of control thinking of

20:57

a snake. now there's one in front of

20:59

you you may find attractive. It or not,

21:01

freaking, you're not seeking. you're not spitting. Second,

21:04

Because I don't on the inside. Scoop.

21:10

As an appellate for subsidies noted is

21:12

like know as much as a minority

21:14

still have any way. Long story short

21:17

to story of at the end of

21:19

that. I've. Found my I found my

21:21

tool I found how to get people's attention and prove

21:23

what he did was real and some him i i

21:25

stepped doing these free just events i i didn't have

21:27

any them as i got the boss and drugs and

21:30

smoking and and women out and or had not had

21:32

an orgasm and ten years gave an orgasm without

21:34

touching requires and I got come up to me going

21:36

to teach me i do that when i. Was

21:42

all about that often? What's

21:44

on the how are you even with up with

21:46

all about that man And I know, yeah, problems

21:48

are there wasn't. A moon up the touch

21:51

them. Laugh at his

21:53

they're pissed off his sister and rather the

21:55

any couldn't believe it. He did not apologize

21:57

on the nature of the last several decades.

21:59

To be fair I was are young and

22:01

full of piss and vinegar and I needed

22:03

people going to therapists over and over again

22:05

for the same as a problem when you

22:07

I knew could be changed much quicker like

22:10

using like you wouldn't have a phone from

22:12

fifteen years ago. it was a real phone

22:14

avoided you be an idiot right or computer

22:16

They not updated the technology and most forms

22:18

of psychology and psychiatry the doing stuff from

22:20

one hundred and fifty years ago still so

22:22

I felt pretty intense and saw it. I

22:24

didn't have a good out interaction with him

22:26

to certain said to be fair funny but

22:29

it a long term fire. My but I

22:31

have the same time I've you know now

22:33

if train how people get the study, my

22:35

work and big credit to be a therapist

22:37

and X so it's it's kind of grown.

22:39

I I trained therapist around the world the

22:41

state but it went from that to okay.

22:44

Working some great athletes and turning around. Had

22:46

a guy that was exposed to make the

22:48

team and the alley Olympics and see what

22:50

he know he made a team that won

22:52

the gold medal in that.my reputation and and

22:54

next thing I know I'm working with Gorbachev

22:56

and I got Mother Teresa, Nelson Mandela, Bill

22:59

Clinton and sports teams and it just grew

23:01

Governance: All this was because I understood and

23:03

I want your audience understand. it

23:05

as something of sided you the you don't like. A

23:08

behavior and emotion of thought. It's.

23:11

Not You. There's nothing wrong with you.

23:13

It's a pattern and we can develop

23:15

patterns in to them so often that

23:17

we think we are patterns as as

23:19

the habit. a habit of thinking. Have

23:21

an emotion over every moment you overeat,

23:23

when you're bored, when you're pissed off,

23:25

or when you worried. rights to pattern

23:28

you contains any pattern when you start

23:30

thinking there's something wrong with you. But

23:32

also, I've learned that anybody that's great

23:34

and anything you're an actor understand you

23:36

do music. I did know that before

23:38

or comedian a packet you are graded

23:40

patterns. We wouldn't be successful. If

23:42

somebody is great musician, they know certain

23:44

patterns, know how to get their. Three.

23:47

skills first go you gotta do is you gotta

23:49

recognize patterns because otherwise sing sing random and so

23:51

overwhelming at the world seems random like oh my

23:53

god is the worst time to be alive was

23:55

bullshit i saw people like they got to know

23:58

that it's a worse time the world pull for

24:00

example, I have so much hate. I

24:02

can show you the postcards that were used

24:05

that were posted by the two of

24:07

the founding fathers, Adams and Jefferson, and

24:09

you've read what they said, it makes

24:11

Trump and Biden and everybody around them

24:13

sound like they're the nicest people in

24:15

the world. I mean, it's cyclical. We

24:17

go through cycles, right? Just like seasons.

24:19

So once you recognize a pattern, you

24:22

can run a business. Once you recognize a pattern, you can

24:24

know what's going on in the stock market. You can be

24:26

a better investor. Once you recognize a pattern, you know what

24:28

to do with your body for more energy. If you recognize

24:30

a pattern, you can decipher how to make a relationship work.

24:33

The first skill is recognizing, the second skill is

24:35

learning to use it. And when

24:37

you look at somebody who's masterful, pick any subject

24:40

in that area, in that domain, they know the best

24:42

patterns and they know how to use it. Now you

24:44

start, let's say you're gonna play the piano by

24:46

playing somebody else's patterns because they figured it out.

24:49

And then as you do that long enough, there gets to a point

24:51

where you learn how to use it, and then you get to the

24:54

third stage where you create your own pattern. And

24:56

that's when you become kind of the master of

24:58

your particular domain, whatever it is you're really good

25:00

at it, if you do it long enough and

25:02

strong enough. So once I understood that, I started

25:04

doing that with businesses. I realized

25:06

business is a pattern. There's certain things that make

25:08

them go, certain things that make, and so then

25:11

I started building them. I started one business and

25:13

I was overwhelmed. And then two, and I did

25:15

things that I really just thought changed the quality

25:17

of people's lives. Businesses I felt passionate about. And

25:19

now I've got 114 companies who

25:21

do $7 billion in business. And

25:23

I couldn't even run one before. And

25:26

it's all just because I know this pattern. So what

25:28

I do is teach people those patterns, help

25:30

them understand the patterns that control them so they

25:32

can change, help them understand the patterns of something

25:34

they want to master, their body, their emotion, their

25:36

business. And once you know them, it's like, you know the

25:38

pathway to get from where you are to where you want

25:40

to be, then it just comes down

25:42

to doing the hard work. Because it's hard work.

25:44

There's no way around the hard work part. But

25:46

it's fun when you get momentum. And

25:49

it's easier. It's like easier to succeed when you have

25:51

momentum than it is to fail. And so

25:53

that's been my life's work. So I'm now, you know,

25:55

47 years into this, and

25:58

I worked in every country in the world, 195 countries. And

26:00

I have the most blessed life because I can go

26:02

anywhere in the world and I've helped so many millions

26:05

of people that I get so much love because when

26:07

you pour out love like that and

26:09

you really deliver for decades and always

26:11

up your game, you touch a

26:14

lot of lives. And I've had people grow up with

26:16

me. I remember when people started recognizing me like, you're

26:18

that guy. And then I had those infomercials for a

26:20

while. I'm like, you're that real estate guy. No, no,

26:22

no. Oh, you're Tony Robbins. Oh, you

26:24

changed my life. Oh, now people come and go, I've

26:26

been listening to you since I was 25 and they

26:28

were like 50 years old. Have

26:31

I been around that long? I guess so. The answer

26:33

is yes. So it's a beautiful, beautiful experience. But I

26:35

share the story because you ask it, but I want

26:37

you to know it wasn't a straight line. There's

26:40

so many ups and downs along the way. If you see

26:42

a straight line in nature, it wasn't made by God. It

26:44

was made by a human, right? Because

26:46

real living things go up and down. Now

26:48

if they keep growing, the up and down

26:51

leads to something greater. And fortunately, I've not

26:53

given up and pursued that and been guided

26:55

and had a lot of grace

26:57

of my life along with the hard work. I

27:00

remember being in your house and you made a

27:02

joke. You go, I always wanted a trophy and

27:04

rings. I just took a different route. And

27:07

I'm sitting there like, what the hell? I

27:09

go, you trained Serena

27:11

Williams, Conor McGregor, four presidents.

27:14

You have all of these leaders. You're the

27:17

leader that the leaders go to for advice.

27:19

And I'm not even blowing smoke up your ass. This

27:21

is legit what people say about you. How

27:24

do you take great people and make them even greater

27:26

than they are? Because now they're performing at a high

27:28

level. Did you have

27:30

that same mindset with the man who's

27:32

unfortunate with the champions? Well,

27:35

yes, I think, you know, people

27:37

come to me in one of two extremes. They're the best

27:39

in the world at what they do. And why do they

27:41

come to me? Because someone who's the best in the world

27:44

is always, they know if I make a little 10 degree

27:46

shift here and I go this direction or

27:48

I make this 10 degree shift this direction, I go

27:50

out a week from now, a month from now, six

27:52

months from now, a year from now, I have a

27:54

different destination, different destiny, different impact. So the best in

27:57

the world, no, a little thing can change everything and

27:59

they want it. to know those and I've

28:01

been obsessed, I'm an obsessive person, I've been

28:03

obsessed for 47 years with asking

28:05

the question, what makes the difference in the quality of

28:07

people's lives? What makes the difference in the quality of

28:09

their performance? Because it's not your

28:12

background. Like, you know, I used to

28:14

think when I was growing up poor, we had no money

28:16

and my fourth father and like, what's wrong here? And I

28:19

remember thinking, well, it's like those people are

28:21

lucky and we're just not. But

28:23

the truth of the matter is you see people

28:25

that have the worst background whatsoever and they just

28:27

made different decisions. They just get moving forward, right?

28:29

So for me, when I look at people, the

28:31

best come to me because they wanna keep getting

28:33

better. And the other time people come to me

28:35

is when they're hungry. What I mean

28:37

by hungry is, if you see my

28:39

audience, it's every color, every background, every age group,

28:41

every country in the world. How, what do they

28:44

have in common? It's not demographics. It's

28:46

a psychographic of wanting more. And

28:48

so you might want more because you

28:50

just went through a divorce. You want

28:53

more because you just had a birthday

28:55

with a zero on it, or maybe after 30, a

28:57

five or a zero on it. You start reevaluating

29:00

your life a little bit. You might do it

29:02

because you lost your job or something

29:04

happened to the business. So pain can

29:06

trigger that hunger. And some people, that's

29:08

not pain. They're just hungry to be more, do more

29:10

and give more. That's my audience. I'm

29:13

not for somebody in lukewarm middle. They're

29:15

not gonna come in and go work day and night

29:17

with me for three or four days. They're gonna go,

29:19

oh, I do all this crap. It's not worth it.

29:21

So that's not my audience. But when someone's in pain

29:23

or someone has drive, that's my

29:25

audience. That's people I serve. To answer your question

29:27

with somebody's great, I just find the

29:30

little things. They take

29:32

them next level, or if they've had an athlete and

29:35

they're having a slump, I go back and find her,

29:37

or a financial trader. I find out what were they

29:39

doing at their best in their head, in their psychology.

29:41

I go to the very depth of what's happening. When

29:43

I worked for the army, I took

29:46

the pistol shooting program that took them, I don't

29:48

know, almost a century to develop. And

29:50

I cut the training in more than half and tripled

29:53

the number of people at experts. How did I do

29:55

it? I went and said, give

29:57

me the three best experts in the entire military

29:59

at shooting. a 45 caliber pistol. I

30:01

never shot a 45 caliber pistol, never shot a gun before. I

30:04

told him I'm gonna do this, right? Now I had a partner

30:06

at the time. How do you sell this? How

30:09

do you sell this? How do you go to the military and be like, I've

30:11

never shot a gun in my life. I didn't tell him that part. But

30:14

I had a partner that was from the Special Forces and

30:16

was John Grinder, he was the one who created NLP. So

30:19

it was the two of us together. And then the day

30:21

I'm supposed to go to the army after a year of

30:23

going through top secret clearance and all this stuff, he

30:25

calls me and says, I'm at the airport, I'm really

30:27

sorry, I have this problem. I gotta go handle it,

30:29

you're on your own. So

30:32

my guts are going crazy. I

30:34

show up underground at this facility in

30:36

Virginia by the security

30:38

services. And they bring me the best guy

30:41

in the army, the best guy, I think it was the

30:43

Marines, and then the best coach of them all. And

30:45

they walk in and they're like, you know, 45,

30:47

50 years old, and I'm 24, and I'm in

30:49

a t-shirt and jeans. And they say, hey,

30:52

where's the teacher? And I said, well, you mean

30:54

the instructor? I said, that's me. And

30:56

they said, where's the teacher? It's

30:59

me, how old are you? I'm 24, I just turned 24, I

31:01

think. And they said, how

31:04

long have you been shooting? I said, well, I've never

31:06

shot before, but we're gonna have a good time today.

31:08

And they were like, looked at me like, are you,

31:10

am I being punked? No, no, no, I don't need

31:12

to have shot. And they, you're gonna shoot a gun.

31:14

So they give me a 45-caliber pistol, we're in this

31:16

underground range, I'll never forget. And they're

31:18

watching me, I've never shot a gun before, right? And

31:20

I'm shaking a little bit and boom. And I put

31:23

the bullet in the ceiling because if you had a

31:25

kickback, did not build rapport. But here's what I did,

31:27

so you understand what I do, and I

31:29

answer your question. I said, I will learn how to

31:31

do this, just like we're gonna train other people to do this, but

31:33

I'm gonna learn the right way, your way. So

31:35

we're gonna start with pick up your gun, all

31:38

three of you, and I want you to go through

31:40

the very first step, like you're about to go shoot

31:42

this gun, and we're on the range, and I go

31:44

stop. And I'd figure out what they're doing in their head.

31:47

And I discovered something that, some things were idiosyncratic,

31:49

like different for each of them. I look for

31:51

the things that are universal, that's what works. And

31:54

all of them, without knowing it, took

31:56

the target, which looked a million miles away

31:58

to me, and mentally. they brought the target

32:01

right here. So in their visualization

32:03

of the target, they brought it closer. Well, it's

32:05

right here, you felt certain you're gonna hit it.

32:07

I'm sitting there going, how am I gonna shoot

32:09

this thing way the hell out there? So

32:11

that was one of the things, I watched the rhythm

32:13

of what they did. I saw what they did with

32:16

their breath, how they held the gun. And so I

32:18

broke it all down into steps until I found what

32:20

they all had in common. And then I took a

32:22

new group of people and trained them to do it.

32:25

And in a day and a half, not four days,

32:27

we qualified everybody and tripled the number of people at

32:29

expert. And the Colonel who wrote up the

32:31

project to the governor, to the general said, the first

32:33

breakthrough in pistol shooting since World War I. So that

32:36

gave me momentum. But that's how I think, I go

32:38

and figure out what's those differences are. So when I

32:40

trained people, you know what I did? I

32:42

didn't let them shoot the gun until they'd handled the

32:45

gun over and over again with no bullets, nothing perfectly,

32:47

exactly the other guys. And the first time they shot

32:49

the gun, I literally put the target three feet in

32:51

front of them. Boom, right through the

32:53

center, boom, boom, right through the center. Hey, this is

32:55

cool shit. And then took it 10 feet and then

32:57

20. And then by the time

32:59

we got it to 50 feet and more, I

33:01

mean, these guys were performing at incredible level. So

33:03

it's these micro things. When somebody's in a tough

33:06

place, might never been there before,

33:08

then the work takes more work, right? But I

33:10

love both. And I love doing the one-on-ones that

33:12

I get to do with amazing

33:14

people and challenge people. And I love being able to do

33:16

crowds of 20 and 30 and

33:19

40,000 people, which we did. I'm doing a seminar

33:21

in a few weeks. Again, I did it last year for a

33:23

million and a half people for six days. Billy

33:26

got me into it. You talk about the virtual one, right?

33:28

Yeah, it was the virtual one. Really

33:30

fucking early in the morning. Wish it was, wish

33:32

it wasn't. I told Billy, I'd go, I'll meet

33:34

you at the end. And I'll turn that on.

33:37

I was the lukewarm guy at that time. Faith,

33:40

I want to circle to faith. I

33:43

think that we're living in a time right now where

33:45

people are starting to lack faith, right? And

33:48

I feel like faith is like the foundation. And

33:51

if you don't have a foundation, regardless of where you're

33:53

building, it's always rocky. What's

33:55

your thoughts on faith and how does a man

33:57

build his faith? to

34:00

build it, you have to understand you were born with it. I'm

34:02

not talking about your religion, I'm talking about your faith. We

34:05

both share, you know, we're both Christians, I know, but

34:07

I don't tell people what to believe. What I think

34:09

is important is that they find what is so for

34:12

them inside. They find their connection with God. It's like

34:14

trying to touch God, you know, the story of the

34:16

blind people touching God, and one touches the tail, and

34:18

they all have a different perception of what God is.

34:20

They're only getting a little piece of it, God's so

34:22

much more than that, right? But faith you were born

34:24

with, and I'll prove it to you. Think of all

34:26

the people that are watching or listening right now, our

34:28

friends out there, who get up every day

34:30

and get in a car and drive it. How

34:33

the hell do you get up, drive a car

34:35

65 miles an hour down

34:37

the street, there's nothing but a yellow line dividing you from

34:39

other people coming 65 miles an hour

34:41

at you, and you know, you know, every

34:43

single day in every city on earth, people

34:46

get killed because the person on their

34:48

side crosses that line. They fell asleep,

34:50

they're trying to text, they're upset,

34:52

they're drunk, happens every single day of your

34:54

life. How the hell do you do that?

34:57

There's only one way, things. Without

34:59

faith, you couldn't make that drive.

35:01

You would have to stay home and do nothing,

35:04

which is pretty much what we did during COVID.

35:06

People want faith and thought a little microbe was

35:08

going to destroy the planet, right? And it wasn't

35:10

true. We all found it wasn't true, unfortunately, the

35:12

hard way after all those shutdowns and all the

35:14

problems and so forth. So without faith, we don't

35:16

function. But faith is a muscle. And

35:18

the more you use a muscle, the stronger it gets. Faith

35:21

unused does not grow, it shrinks. Courage

35:23

unused does not grow, it shrinks.

35:26

Passion unexpressed does not grow, it

35:28

shrinks. So, but if you use

35:30

more of it, and you rely on it more,

35:32

you discover it's there. And what I found is,

35:34

I personally,

35:37

everyone is different in their approach. My wife is unbelievable.

35:39

She's one of the most incredible human beings I know.

35:41

She just has faith. I have

35:43

to earn it. It's just my thing. I don't

35:45

know the way I'm there. It's like my way

35:48

of earning it is over practice, over prepare, over

35:50

deliver, be so ready to go, and then step

35:52

into that room and then everything I prepared for,

35:54

for hours. My team will be

35:56

working with me till two in the morning designing stuff for,

35:58

you know, a day's event, for example. 12 hours

36:01

and I got mind maps and ideas and I

36:03

stand out in that audience and it all changes

36:05

because I feel the people I see what's needed

36:07

but because I've loaded my system so to speak

36:10

I feel like I've done my part and then God comes

36:12

through you. Amen. You prepared yourself.

36:14

That's my part. Now some people just have the

36:16

faith and it works, I wish I worked that way in some way but I

36:18

don't. That's so beautiful and honestly I

36:20

literally just spoke about this with Andrew T. I don't

36:22

know if you know who Andrew T. is. Yeah, of

36:24

course I do. I told him I'd go, God prepared

36:26

me for this. I did not prepare, like I prepared

36:28

as much as I can but when we were having

36:31

a conversation it was like I already knew where it

36:33

was going and I was so confident and I tell

36:35

people now I'm like I'm probably the most confident in

36:37

the room but I'm confident because I'm confident in my

36:39

Lord not me. Yeah, I'm confident and guided. When

36:42

someone stands up in those rooms and it's been 47 years, when

36:44

they stand up it's different

36:47

every time and when they stand up

36:49

it's already done and then I get to see how

36:51

it's done and then afterwards I look at what I

36:54

did and figure it out so I could do it

36:56

again or teach other people to do it. I figure

36:58

out the patterns but that's really the process. But I

37:00

want you to know the way I am, I don't

37:02

go preach to people about their religion at all. I

37:05

tell people whatever you believe I help you practice

37:07

it because you won't be happy otherwise you won't

37:09

be fulfilled and I also believe that somebody thinks

37:11

that there is no God, there isn't anything greater

37:14

in the universe than yourself. It's

37:16

a little bit egotistical and a little bit

37:18

silly. It's like saying Webster's dictionary is the

37:20

result of an explosion in a print factory.

37:22

It all came together just perfectly. So I

37:24

think if you can do your part and

37:27

you can work your tail off and you can over deliver

37:30

then something magical happens, grace. Some people

37:32

call it luck, grace, God,

37:34

the universe, whatever you want to do. But my

37:36

personal belief is it's really hard to be fulfilled

37:38

without that. But I don't ever do that. I

37:41

decided not to become a minister of sorts because

37:43

I wanted to reach people that

37:46

weren't being reached. I didn't want

37:48

to talk to people that are already there. I want to reach

37:50

people that they see me, they experience

37:52

it, they feel how much real love and care

37:54

is there and then they

37:56

might ask me what I believe in that area. Well remember,

37:58

we're going to be there. I'm not here to do

38:00

that. I explain to people all the time. I'm not

38:03

a preacher. I'm a man who fears God and loves

38:05

to talk about it. That's beautiful. So

38:08

the thought behind it is if Jesus came

38:10

down and said, hey, preach, the number one thing you would say is

38:12

don't use your mouth. Use your actions. I agree. Because

38:15

people could talk all day. That's right. And a lot

38:18

of people that talk about Jesus aren't moving the way

38:20

Jesus wants to be moving. That's right. So

38:23

I'm very proud of the way you're moving. Not that you need my. I

38:25

could go to bed now that Jordan's

38:27

proud of it. I feel

38:29

so much better. But before

38:31

we go. But I always tell people you can know who

38:33

I am. You don't have to see how my lips move.

38:35

You can tell my feet and my hands and my body

38:37

has moved for 47 years. It's

38:39

real clear who the hell I am and what I really stand

38:41

for and what I really deliver. And I

38:44

think that's the greatest message any of us can have

38:46

because anybody can talk a good game. And the most

38:48

disgusting thing to me in the world is all the

38:50

virtual signaling that you see in social media where people

38:52

don't even know the whole story of what's going on

38:54

in some part of the world. And they present how

38:56

great they are because they're supportive of something. That

38:58

is annoying. What are you going to do? Do

39:00

something. Don't just talk about or try to present

39:02

yourself. Well, they're adding to the problem. If

39:05

you don't actually have a solution, you're talking about it. You're starting

39:07

the fire. If

39:09

you'd like a lot of people would get mad at me.

39:11

Why aren't you speaking up about this? Because I don't know

39:13

about it. I think that's fair. That's intelligent. I

39:15

don't know about it. How am I going to speak

39:17

about it? What if I'm talking about talking my ass

39:19

and I go in the wrong direction and then I

39:21

convince other people to go in the wrong direction? We're

39:23

not all equal in our understanding or skill. It's Valentine's

39:25

Day. And so I feel romantic and I wrote a

40:29

was interviewing a former

40:31

UK prime minister and

40:33

and I had him with this group and

40:36

it was right around the time that Brexit was coming And

40:39

sure enough some people asked the question somebody asked the question and

40:41

he gave his answer what he thought about that And the person

40:43

says well, I think you're completely wrong. I don't think you know

40:45

what you're talking about at all He goes

40:47

well, I was prime minister for eight years, right Tony

40:50

Blair And I go you're a

40:52

horror criminal and it's like we oversimplify

40:55

Everything in a complex world and we live in

40:57

the world today that if we've been on a

40:59

plane we think we can fly it We're not

41:01

all equal in our skills We can become equal

41:03

in our skills if you want to put the

41:05

time and the energy and the effort into it

41:07

But we live in a world now where it's

41:09

all about instantaneous fulfillment and it's not real. It's

41:11

not really fulfillment It's positioning and positioning makes you

41:13

feel empty in the end. You don't feel strong

41:15

you feel fearful That's what this whole imposter syndrome

41:18

thing is is people like Trying

41:20

to be something that they're not look you can

41:22

build yourself into anything you want to become You

41:25

know our creator give us this thing

41:27

called choice And you can make new

41:29

choices and you can take a new direction right now today

41:31

You don't like your life changing you don't like your business

41:33

change You don't like your relationship change you first because if

41:35

you just change it You'll have the same problem again because

41:37

you're part of a more right, you know

41:39

I can find answers change anybody can change it As

41:42

long as you stop making up stories and you

41:44

stop coming up with all the excuses because you're

41:47

just fearful Fearful everybody else fear

41:49

that's why faith is so powerful faith is the

41:51

only thing that can get you out of fear

41:53

You're scared, but you do it anyway. That's what

41:55

courage is. It doesn't take courage if you're not

41:58

scared and most of them that

42:00

we develop spiritual muscles, emotional muscles,

42:03

faith, courage, determination, all those, they come because you

42:05

did it not because you felt like it, you

42:07

did it because you knew it was going to

42:09

serve something more than you, or you knew it

42:11

was going to serve you as well. There's

42:14

two things, faith, that there's two stories that I hit

42:16

in my head. I want to share here because I

42:18

know there's going to be a lot of people watching

42:20

this, and the two things that I always rely on

42:22

when it comes to faith, because sometimes you have to

42:24

remind yourself that faith. Even when you see a man

42:26

who's like, man, that guy has a lot of faith,

42:28

trust me, the devil has put him to the test

42:30

to have that faith. There was this

42:32

one, an amazing speaker, and he said,

42:34

God will give you the vision at the end, but

42:37

he won't tell you how to get there because you

42:39

need faith to get there. I

42:41

thought that was really beautiful. At the time in

42:43

the scripture, there was a woman that

42:45

was in the crowd, and Jesus was walking. At

42:48

the time Jesus was walking and he was healing, he was a very famous

42:50

man. Some people wanted to talk to him, some people didn't. This

42:54

woman, this woman who was ill, she just says,

42:56

I'm not going to bother him, but I know

42:58

if I just touch his cloth, his clothes, that

43:00

I'll be healed. She

43:03

touches him, and instantaneously

43:05

she was healed, she felt it, and

43:08

Jesus turns around and he goes, who touched me? Who

43:11

touched me? Obviously he knows who touched her.

43:13

He goes, who touched me? I felt power leave me. She

43:17

got scared. She goes, it was me. I just

43:19

knew that if I touched you, that I would

43:21

be healed. He said, daughter, it was your faith

43:23

that healed you. I

43:27

circled with that because the thing that

43:29

rang with me, man, was a lot of

43:31

people always asked me, when you talk to a man who

43:33

doesn't want to know God, the first thing he brings up

43:35

is the things that, why would this happen if there's a

43:38

God? I think

43:40

that everybody has the same tools. Some

43:43

people that have bad intentions have better

43:45

faith than you, so they could get there quicker

43:47

than you. I

43:50

always try to tell people, man,

43:52

don't run away from faith. Do not run

43:54

away from faith. In

43:56

this world, it's either you're contributing or you're going to

43:58

be a part of it. somebody else's

44:00

contribute. It's true. Faith

44:03

without works is dead too. We got to do our part. That's

44:06

the hard work. They don't have faith but they aren't doing anything. It's

44:10

like hope. Hope is a good first step and hope

44:12

is not enough. You got to

44:14

get yourself an action. You got to do something.

44:16

You got to learn. You got to grow. Some

44:19

people call fail, I call learning. You got to

44:21

learn. Every time you don't

44:23

succeed and you learn something, you get better

44:25

if you keep moving forward. Even

44:28

your human body is this. I wrote a whole book

44:30

called Life Force and I interviewed 150 of

44:32

the best scientists, regenerative

44:35

doctors, Nobel laureates about these incredible

44:37

breakthroughs like stem cells and things

44:39

that are occurring. One

44:42

of the things I ended up doing a whole

44:44

chapter on was understanding placebos because placebos are amazing.

44:46

You can take any problem a human being has

44:48

and give them a placebo and a percentage of

44:50

them get well. I mean, physically well. You know

44:52

you changed my life when you first told me

44:54

that. No, I didn't know that. When you told

44:56

me you took 10 people in a room that

44:58

had depression and you got them

45:01

into the gym, eight

45:03

of them didn't have depression anymore. I was secretly

45:05

depressed when you told me that. I didn't

45:07

know that. I didn't know that either. Changing

45:10

your biochemistry, people try to do through drugs

45:12

and it doesn't work. SSRIs,

45:14

Prozac, Zoloft, all these things. There was

45:17

a cover of Newsweek a year ago

45:19

in 2022, almost two years

45:21

ago, saying all the metastudies say they

45:23

don't work but we keep selling them. This is so

45:25

crazy. We did this study

45:27

where during COVID we had Stanford

45:30

come to me and they had two other professors

45:32

that went through one of my programs called Date

45:34

with Testing, a six-day program, a real deep immersion.

45:37

They said they both had clinically depressed, came out

45:39

not depressed. They were like, do you need data

45:41

on the people you've worked with? I said, well,

45:43

I got millions of clients. They said, no, but

45:45

like scientific data. I said, no. I

45:47

said, you want to do a study? Let's do a study. They said,

45:49

we'd love to. I said, before we

45:51

do it, tell me how does this

45:53

work normally? Meaning when people

45:55

go for traditional treatment, how many get well?

45:58

And they said, if you go across the metastudy, when they do

46:00

like a hundred different studies and see what they have in

46:02

common, the average is 60% don't improve

46:04

at all. That's with drugs

46:07

and therapy. 40% improve, but on average

46:09

they improve 50%, they're half

46:11

as depressed. Most of them stay on those drugs for the

46:13

rest of their life, at least a decade, and

46:15

they don't work. All they do is numb you. They don't take

46:18

care of the real problem, right? So I said, I think you

46:20

can do that with a placebo because by the way, with the

46:22

placebo, the more intense the

46:24

placebo, the greater the reaction. Meaning we

46:27

can give you an amphetamine to speed

46:29

your body up, give it as a

46:31

blue pill and tell you it's a barbiturate and

46:33

your body will slow down. It doesn't

46:36

just heal your body, it'll overcome

46:38

a drug in your body. But if we

46:40

really want a powerful injection, powerful thing, the

46:42

bigger the capsule, the greater the response, if

46:45

it's an injection, they get even bigger results. And

46:47

the most powerful results of all was fake surgeries

46:50

because, I mean, I've shared this with you when we

46:52

talked about that book, but in,

46:54

you know, what is it? Microscopic

46:56

surgery for the knees, what's it called? I'm

46:58

going to get them named. Ophthaloscopic, thank you.

47:01

Ophthaloscopic surgery, they did a study, they

47:03

were doing this for all the veterans, and

47:05

they did fake surgeries on a percentage of

47:07

them. Well, they literally put them out, cut

47:10

them, and did nothing, put it

47:12

back together. The results after a year and a

47:14

half was that people had no surgery improved more

47:16

than the people had the surgery, so they stopped

47:18

funding it. Because of surgery, now you really expect

47:20

a result, right, to make things happen. But anyway,

47:22

with Stanford, I said, let's do the study. I

47:24

said, what's the best result you've ever gotten in

47:27

getting rid of depression? Because this is the middle

47:29

of COVID when this is happening, and people are,

47:31

you know, more suicides at the

47:33

time, more overdoses, you know how bad it was then,

47:35

people are freaked out at home. And

47:37

so I said, what's the best? They

47:39

said the best was five years ago at Johns Hopkins.

47:41

They gave people for a month psilocybin.

47:44

So they gave them magic mushrooms for

47:46

a month and cognitive therapy for

47:48

a month. I said, well, after that, you

47:50

better be changed in some way, right? And the

47:53

guy said, it was amazing, it was the greatest

47:55

result in the history of psychiatry. Six weeks after

47:57

this month's worth of treatment, 54. percent

48:00

of the people had no symptoms whatsoever. It's like

48:02

unbelievable. I said, I think we can beat that.

48:04

We'll see. Right. So I said, you set up

48:06

the study. They did the same type of study,

48:08

no drugs, obviously, and just the six day seminar.

48:11

And what do we do? We get

48:13

people to rewire how they perceive

48:15

the world. In other words, whether

48:18

your life is terrible, shitty, great,

48:20

magnificent, has nothing to do with

48:22

your life. It has to do with what you focus on.

48:25

Right now, there are a million things that you could be pissed

48:27

off about in the world if you wanted to be, or your

48:29

life, or worried about. There's a million things you could be happy

48:31

about too. What's wrong is always

48:33

available, so is what's right. So when you

48:35

shift your belief systems consciously, and

48:38

you decide what you want to value, and you

48:40

align your behavior values, you have a different life.

48:42

So these people go through this process, and

48:44

the results were so profound that they

48:46

were afraid they were going to get canceled if they

48:49

published it. So they put it, blacklisted it, meaning they

48:51

didn't know who it was, and they sent the details

48:53

out to three different organizations, came back with the same

48:55

result. 100% of the people after six

48:57

weeks who went through my program for six days,

48:59

not one had any sense of clinical depression. 17%

49:02

of the people they put in had

49:04

suicidal ideation, constantly thinking of suicide.

49:07

Not a single person did it. They followed up 11 months

49:09

later, they were going to do 12 months, but COVID people

49:11

were coming back to work and so

49:14

forth. So they had all the statistics on

49:16

the general population, so they did an 11-month

49:18

study. Nobody depressed anymore, but more importantly, their

49:20

negative emotions had dropped 72%, their positive emotions

49:22

had gone up 51%. Now they're doing a

49:26

one-year study right now on engagement.

49:30

In a business, the more engaged your

49:32

employees are, the more successful the business

49:34

is, the more profitable it is. And they

49:36

look at engagement, disengagement, and active disengagement. Well,

49:40

disengagement is somebody that's quiet quitting is what we call

49:42

it now. They're trying to do the least possible. Active

49:44

disengagement is loud quitting. They're pissed off and they're trying

49:47

to hurt the company but still get

49:49

paid for a period of time until they're

49:51

gone. And during COVID, for those four years, we

49:53

had the lowest level of engagement in history and

49:56

the highest level of active disengagement, people angry.

49:58

Like you see people planes now, so

50:01

mean, and restaurants and things like that. They

50:03

were pushed down so long now they've got

50:05

this agitated state still what's going on. But

50:07

anyway, the bottom line is it's a one-year

50:09

study. Usually these are one month, three month

50:11

studies, 30 or 40 people, 750 people

50:14

for a year. It just completed. I

50:16

only saw the six month mark. I'm gonna see the

50:18

other but they said it's incredible. The

50:20

people literally made up their engagement completely

50:22

transformed, made up for four years and

50:24

then some improved. And then for the

50:27

11 or six months I saw it

50:29

afterwards. Every month it got better and I never saw them again

50:31

because they have a different psyche. So there's

50:33

no question, this is published in the Journal of

50:35

Psychiatry, the first study I told you about. Not

50:38

one phone call from anybody. And people still sell

50:40

those drugs because it's like we're so trained to

50:42

be a certain way. But for people that are

50:44

hungry and people want a solution, there are many.

50:46

I'm not the only one but there are many

50:49

that actually work and all you have to do

50:51

is find there isn't a problem that we can't

50:53

solve. Every problem that mankind has created, mankind can

50:55

solve. And we're all part of man or humankind,

50:57

man or woman, it doesn't matter. Yep. I

51:00

recently and correct me if I'm wrong because I feel like you

51:03

would know this. There

51:05

was things that I had to practice. When I was

51:07

depressed, I was hanging around with people I should have

51:09

been hanging out with. I had to retrain my brain

51:11

into behaving. And it was it was kind of like

51:13

I was a psychopath. If I was angry because when

51:15

I was depressed I was angry. So say somebody was

51:17

walking by and he pissed me off. I'll say something

51:20

negative about him in my head but then I made

51:22

myself say three nice things about him in my head.

51:24

Because I was like truly it was my fear of

51:26

God, right? I didn't want God to make me look

51:28

at me and I mean I didn't want him to

51:30

look at me looking at another son of his and

51:32

I'm just talking trash and then still asking him to

51:34

come help me. And then

51:37

when I was getting myself out of it I learned and I

51:39

want to know if this is right but

51:41

your brain can't be depressed and grateful at

51:43

the same time. That's what you talked about

51:45

before exactly. I have a process to show

51:47

people the two emotions that mess up your

51:49

relationships, that mess up your life, that mess

51:51

up your career, your business, is

51:53

fear and anger, right? Those two extremes.

51:56

And when you're grateful, simplistic as that

51:59

sounds. when I say grateful, I don't mean

52:01

intellectually grateful. I mean, you really feel it. I have a process

52:03

I do every day for that that I teach people to do

52:05

for 10 minutes. And when you're

52:07

really grateful, you can't be grateful and fearful

52:09

simultaneously. You can't be angry and grateful simultaneously.

52:12

So that's the power of that. One emotion

52:14

is really powerful to rid or get it

52:16

out of your body. And what you did

52:18

perfectly was you caught yourself and broke the

52:21

pattern. It was a habit and

52:23

you caught yourself, said, no, I'm gonna do this.

52:25

And you did three new good things. Broke it,

52:27

did it again, three new things. Now you had

52:29

strong enough reasons to do it because yours is,

52:31

I gotta do this for God. Not everybody has

52:33

that belief system, but they might do it for

52:35

their child. They might do it for

52:37

their husband or wife. Most of us, I think one of

52:39

the most beautiful things about human beings, what

52:41

makes us gorgeous as beings is

52:43

that we'll do more for others than we'll even

52:46

do for ourselves. And as somebody

52:48

who loves, somebody who care about, whether it be

52:50

your kid, whether it be somebody else. And so

52:52

sometimes that's what's needed. But you need leverage, you

52:54

have leverage, something that makes change a must. And

52:57

then you have to rewire yourself. The reason

52:59

these people lasted by the way, they followed

53:01

me, Stanford had a group that followed me

53:03

for three years prior and they measured my

53:05

body when I'm in these audiences, 10, 15,

53:07

20,000 people for

53:09

12 hours a day, four days in a row, seven days in

53:11

a row in these stadiums. And they wanted to

53:13

see what my body did. So I found

53:16

all these interesting statistics like, I

53:18

jump a thousand times on an average day, one

53:20

of those days and I weigh 290 pounds. So

53:23

every time I come down, it's four times your

53:25

body weight. So imagine a thousand pounds, a thousand

53:27

times in a day. And I've been doing that

53:29

for 47 years. How's your knees? My

53:32

knees are actually great. My bones though are

53:34

like, they did my bone density. They go,

53:36

these are humans, these are ultra athletes. This

53:38

is something we've never seen before. Gorilla called

53:40

you, right? Cause the demands

53:42

were so intense, but also, you know, if you've

53:44

ever been running with a friend and

53:47

you can't speak anymore, that's cause the

53:49

lactic acid has gotten to about a

53:51

four. I'm an 18 and still speaking.

53:54

I have the lean body mass of NFL

53:56

Defensive lineman, right? So You go through all this stuff and

53:58

what I do. The most powerful thing

54:01

was we saw that every time I go

54:03

on stage there's this thing they call when

54:05

they do these measurements on like the Tom

54:07

Brady's of the World are. They did am

54:09

on ninth of Hockey teams that won over

54:12

again like the Tampa Bay Lightning team that

54:14

come from mine and when they wanted to

54:16

see what happens biochemically and still be discover

54:18

something. Saw a guy like Tom Brady is

54:21

down by ten points of the Fourth Quarter

54:23

Superbowl. He wins How on earth He has

54:25

a surge of testosterone which makes you focused,

54:27

it puts you in the zone and you

54:29

also. In here is going on. you

54:32

remember every detail when you have

54:34

enough testosterone, but usually you also

54:36

get cortisol that's the stress hormone

54:38

simultaneously in this championship physiology use

54:40

of his explosion of this driving

54:42

testosterone and a course or drops

54:44

off the cliffs all you get

54:46

his maximum output stuff a guarantee

54:48

you can win but it maximizes

54:50

your possibilities are moving at a

54:52

different. Place. A

54:54

Dick. Holy different biochemical psychological face facts and

54:56

so I do that every time A gun

54:58

safety follow me to three and a half

55:00

years and and it burned eleven thousand three

55:02

hundred calories given idea one day on states

55:04

to reach Can believe his father did all

55:06

this. suspect that this happens every time a

55:08

your idols and on the state or with

55:10

up into the top of his third level

55:12

of stadium and so forth on I'm always

55:14

in the room you never woman a strikes

55:16

but was interesting was then they started measuring

55:18

my audience. And. That's how

55:20

they can understand why these changes have lasted of

55:23

ago houses last the just from once as are

55:25

you feeding us a look. At what

55:27

we feed off each other they did it when

55:29

my live audience mm when I started going digital

55:32

seminars where people like fifty countries they went to

55:34

fifteen countries and while we're doing the seminars they

55:36

do the same thing to me I've or this

55:38

device that measured married or ability and so forth.

55:41

The came and took my so live and see

55:43

what's happening my hormones took my blood they did

55:45

the same thing with these people and guess what

55:47

they saw it looks like a song like everybody's

55:49

different and then all the sudden it begins and

55:52

as I start searching up the audience is biochemistry

55:54

matches mind the cortisol drops off the test round

55:56

process runs. Through here and that's mighty Storm

55:58

through the fire has. That's why, like a

56:00

bonus you were. We were nine eleven. Any person

56:03

around the world, even Mount Americans, can tell you

56:05

where they were, what they saw the moment they

56:07

sought. Ask you where you won

56:09

eleven? You have no clue because you didn't have

56:11

the surge about energy, that emotion, and those biochemical

56:13

changes. So that's why this last, and that's why

56:16

we're So it's when you catch yourself and rewire

56:18

yourself. Yes, you're doing something behaviorally, but you also

56:20

making biochemical changes when you do it. and if

56:22

you do it over and over again, it just

56:25

becomes the new habit than the way of being

56:27

him. And you have to work at. Night

56:29

you just have a new quality of life. For.

56:32

Colonel. A Lily I told

56:34

ya has sit here and students say

56:36

a sob either is something I wrote.

56:38

I want to read it verbatim. from

56:40

what are you sad because I want

56:43

to top And and Ninety ninety One

56:45

you are Wrote the book awakened. The

56:47

Giant within has thirty One Well, and

56:49

there was this one thing that caught

56:51

my heart and had to write this

56:53

because I really pray that this sits

56:55

with a lot of people in our

56:57

generation because Og also explain why it's

56:59

the Niagara Syndrome. Or yes, they jump

57:01

into a lake of life not knowing.

57:03

Where they're gonna end up. And. They get

57:05

caught in the current, the current events,

57:08

the current fears, the current challenges. They

57:10

get directed by their environment and not

57:12

their values. The

57:15

the time when you wrote that the current

57:17

was strong. but now because a social media

57:19

the current is raging. agree with you. How

57:23

could you explain this to

57:25

children that are being risen

57:27

not by their parents, but

57:30

by tablets, by I phones,

57:32

by social media on. How

57:35

do we get some to not jump

57:37

and yet without knowing their values? And

57:39

then when we come from a home

57:41

that doesn't have a leading father that

57:43

doesn't demonstrate good values, how does a

57:45

man even find good? Sally's. Well.

57:49

When. I was. nineteen

57:51

or twenty i just learned some of

57:53

these skills skills i started to myself

57:55

i can really produce lasting change in

57:57

the first thing i thought was and

57:59

how all these people coming to these little events back then,

58:01

there were 50, 100 people, 150 people. But

58:05

I wanna help somebody one-on-one, I wanna mentor

58:08

somebody. So I went there, in Chino Prison

58:10

System in California, they had a thing called

58:12

the M2 program, match two people. And

58:14

so I got matched with this guy that was a murderer. And

58:17

I came in and met with him twice a month,

58:20

like clockwork, and he

58:22

didn't have any of those values, I helped him discover

58:25

them. When I say didn't have them, we

58:27

all have values. There's something distinct in the

58:29

human creature that knows right from wrong, regardless

58:31

of how you've been conditioned. You know, your

58:33

conditioning can cover it up. But

58:35

at a core level, we know what's important.

58:38

It's kind of wired into so we wouldn't

58:40

survive as a species. It's why we succeed,

58:42

we succeed, not because of one individual, we

58:44

succeed because we create communities that

58:46

can solve any problem. One person can't solve a lot of

58:48

problems, but a group of people can. So

58:50

anyway, I worked in that environment, and

58:52

I got to see that within a

58:54

few months, I got to change this

58:56

physiology, because that's what I start with. Start with the body

58:58

and then you'll get the mind, right? What do you explain this, if

59:00

you don't mind me asking? Was he

59:02

out of shape? Was he not? No,

59:05

he's in prison and he's doing nothing,

59:07

but being rageful, angry. But was he

59:09

like that before prison? Yes. Okay.

59:12

But in prison, it's magnified, as you can imagine. So you

59:14

absolutely have to start first with your body. I start with

59:16

the body, I think it's the fastest way to shift. There's

59:18

lots of ways, sometimes I start with other ways, but you

59:20

just think about it. If someone is sitting here like this,

59:24

and they're talking like this, and they make

59:26

gestures like this, and they... because

1:00:00

it covers from A to Z. Energy, stanema,

1:00:02

stress, sleep, immunity, focus, mental clarity, gut health,

1:00:04

and mood. Honestly, it covers it all. All

1:00:06

right, I wanna share you my life cycle.

1:00:08

In the mornings, I take Lion's Mane, Cordyceps,

1:00:11

and Chaga. This gives me energy four to

1:00:13

six hours. I am just like a lightning

1:00:15

bolt. All right, Turkey Tail might've saved my

1:00:17

life. This might be a little bit too

1:00:19

much information, but my stool is impeccable right

1:00:21

now. If you don't know what the stool

1:00:24

is, don't Google it. The next two are

1:00:26

Reishi and Shataki. You're gonna wanna put these

1:00:28

next to your toothbrush. I'm not exaggerating. Belle

1:00:30

and I both took this before bed, and I

1:00:32

have never had a night's sleep like that. Don't

1:00:34

forget to use my code for the link in

1:00:36

the description, and that is going to be George20

1:00:38

for 20% off. Seriously,

1:00:42

try this. You're not gonna regret it. So I show

1:00:44

people how to make changes quickly, but then to make

1:00:46

it lock in, you need rituals, right?

1:00:48

You're gonna have lots of goals, but

1:00:50

goals don't meet squats, like New Year's. People have

1:00:52

set a New Year's resolution and 91% of people

1:00:54

never even get close to covering it because

1:00:57

they have this thing they want or they have no

1:00:59

plan or they have a little crappy plan, but they

1:01:01

don't have rituals, like things you're gonna do every day

1:01:03

that make it automatic, like the ones you're creating. Like,

1:01:05

if I do that, I'm gonna do this instead. You

1:01:07

do that, and after a while, you don't have to

1:01:09

think about the ritual, it takes over. It'll start to

1:01:11

happen automatically for you, right? So when

1:01:13

I look at these situations like working with these people,

1:01:16

I looked at it and said, okay, anyone

1:01:18

can get those values. They have to be awakened. I

1:01:20

start with a body, and so all of a sudden,

1:01:23

he started running, and pretty soon, he's running two and

1:01:25

three miles in a day, doing all these pushups, and

1:01:27

all of a sudden, he's owning himself. He feels in

1:01:29

control of his body. Why don't you take control of

1:01:31

one part of yourself with discipline? I always tell people,

1:01:34

my original teacher, Jim Rohn, you say discipline weighs ounces,

1:01:36

regret weighs tons. Like, if you

1:01:38

want to have a great life, you gotta learn to

1:01:40

discipline yourself, and if you discipline yourself in one area,

1:01:43

it's amazing, you'll start disciplining yourself in others, and

1:01:45

discipline sounds like a negative word, but what it

1:01:47

really means is taking back control, and

1:01:50

so I watched that, then I started feeding him books to

1:01:52

read, as a man thinks it, so he started to feel

1:01:54

his thoughts are controlling and so forth, and by the time

1:01:56

he got out, he got out eight

1:01:58

years later. different human being,

1:02:00

a loving human being, control of his life, a

1:02:02

peaceful human being. So the answer to your question

1:02:05

is, it's great to have a father, but unfortunately,

1:02:07

many of us, I had four different ones, they

1:02:09

didn't stick around. Many of us didn't have that

1:02:11

strong father, but we can find that in a

1:02:13

mentor. And we're in a world

1:02:15

today where if you're conscious, you can go

1:02:17

find those mentors because those people are online

1:02:19

or you can join an organization or something

1:02:21

of that nature. So the answer to your

1:02:23

question on a simplistic level is, yes, it's

1:02:25

great to have a father, but not all

1:02:27

fathers are there, not all fathers are great

1:02:29

fathers. But there's always someone out there

1:02:31

that if you can show you're out for something

1:02:34

more than yourself, and you're trying

1:02:36

to accomplish something, somebody will move in your direction.

1:02:38

That's the grace of life. But you have to

1:02:40

first show your committed, you got to show you're

1:02:42

going to do something in my opinion, that to

1:02:44

me is what it takes. And social media, you're

1:02:47

never going to teach these kids not

1:02:49

to do these things, they're going to have

1:02:51

to experience things, unfortunately, that are painful, what

1:02:53

you really need is get to the parents.

1:02:55

That's what really matters. But there's so many

1:02:57

absent parents, they because they're so stressed out,

1:02:59

they don't have to manage their own states.

1:03:01

So it's not an easy thing. I don't

1:03:03

pretend there is. But I think that's why

1:03:05

communities, churches, environments where people are conscious about

1:03:08

wanting to support one another are so valuable, and

1:03:10

you can find it in many different ways, but

1:03:12

you have to pursue it. God

1:03:16

moves to those that are willing to do their

1:03:18

part. I mean, if they thought without action is

1:03:20

nothing, right? So it's like, you've got to do

1:03:22

your part. You may not know everything. But if

1:03:24

you start taking a few steps, you'll get momentum,

1:03:27

you'll go on the journey we talked about, right,

1:03:29

you'll meet new people, you'll have some new mentors,

1:03:31

you'll face some new dragons, but then you'll learn

1:03:33

to slay them, you'll develop skills and abilities you

1:03:35

didn't know you had, you'll slay the dragon, and

1:03:38

you'll come home the hero of your own life.

1:03:40

And now you have gifts to give people because

1:03:42

you've earned it, because you've become someone, you weren't

1:03:44

just sitting around telling people your opinion or

1:03:46

virtual signaling. But look, the

1:03:49

pendulum always swings very far. And

1:03:51

then it swings back. We're swinging about as far

1:03:53

as I can imagine right now in our society,

1:03:56

probably going to go further than I even imagined. But

1:03:58

I think we're going to find balance. There's a lot of

1:04:00

young people coming back to God right now. And

1:04:03

the Z generation, they're like, it's amazing. People say

1:04:05

they don't care. The millennials had a little different

1:04:07

frame, not all of them, but some of them.

1:04:09

But the Z generation is having a different, I

1:04:12

think that's the other part of history

1:04:15

that's great. Like if you wanna

1:04:17

know history, I'm gonna give

1:04:19

it to you in four sentences. Good times create weak people.

1:04:23

Weak people create bad times.

1:04:26

Bad times create strong people and

1:04:28

strong people create great times. That's the

1:04:31

history of the world. It's a cycle that we go

1:04:33

through. And right now we're in the cycle where a

1:04:35

lot of people that are weak, silence

1:04:39

is violence, words are violence. Heard Chris Rockley,

1:04:41

they said, if you think words are violence,

1:04:43

no one has slapped the shit out of

1:04:46

you on national television. I'm like,

1:04:48

no words are not violence, right? And now

1:04:50

some people saying words are violence are saying,

1:04:52

oh yeah, somebody can chop off the heads

1:04:54

of children, rape women, and oh,

1:04:56

by the way, that's totally okay. I'm not saying what

1:04:58

anybody else has been okay, but that's totally okay. It's

1:05:01

justified. I mean, same people saying words are violence.

1:05:03

So we're in a weird position right now, but

1:05:06

that calls to people to the point where

1:05:08

they get humbled, because

1:05:11

they don't know what to do. And when you

1:05:13

get humbled, you tend to look for something beyond

1:05:15

yourself, something deeper in this world, call

1:05:17

it grace, call it God, call it universal

1:05:20

intelligence. I don't limit people to say, well, use

1:05:22

the words I would use. Everyone has their own

1:05:24

way of reaching that. I'm respectful of that. But

1:05:27

they gotta find it, or they're gonna feel

1:05:29

really empty inside. I

1:05:31

love the way you move. You show grace to everyone.

1:05:34

And I was just telling Billy, we

1:05:37

were talking about something personal, and the reason I overcame it

1:05:39

is because when I was reading the scripture, it

1:05:42

just dawned on me. I go, Jesus always

1:05:44

knew Judas was going to betray him, but

1:05:46

he always treated him like the other disciples. Yeah. There's

1:05:50

power in that. And then they come up

1:05:52

to him and they're like, you gotta pay taxes. And he's like,

1:05:54

I gotta pay taxes. Who's on

1:05:56

the coin? They go Caesar. I go and give to Caesar what

1:05:59

Caesar's and give to God. God and

1:06:02

but then he said something that's even more powerful after

1:06:04

that he says but those so we don't offend him

1:06:07

and I just pause it he goes but so

1:06:10

that we do not offend them and then he

1:06:12

went with them and I thought to myself I

1:06:14

go my God I go the only way I could

1:06:16

reach a man is by love it

1:06:18

is by love it is only love because if I looked

1:06:21

at you and I listen dude you're a dumb piece of

1:06:23

shit and I'll tell you why I guarantee

1:06:25

you that person is now out because he knows

1:06:27

that you don't love him and you don't care for

1:06:29

him but if I go hey Tony um you

1:06:32

know I think that I think you would

1:06:34

be more sincere and eager to listen because

1:06:36

you know it's coming from somebody who cares

1:06:38

about you I understandably

1:06:40

if I try to teach anybody that I work

1:06:42

with who works with people coaches

1:06:45

trainers therapists all those types

1:06:47

of people I said you know you can't influence somebody

1:06:49

if you're judging them I mean

1:06:51

it's possible but you're not gonna influence most people

1:06:53

by judge the only way can influence them is

1:06:55

for them to feel how much you sincerely care

1:06:57

and people don't trust that initially I remember I

1:06:59

have a friend right now that I've known for

1:07:02

about I don't know probably 30 years and

1:07:05

he that quote you get from one

1:07:07

of my books when I was like a week in the giant

1:07:09

within I think I was 30 years old and I wrote that

1:07:11

book and you were describing that opening to that event where I

1:07:13

was flying in the helicopter and I was worried

1:07:16

that people are gonna make to my event because there's all

1:07:18

this traffic you know forever as far as the eye could

1:07:20

see and it was my event it was like 15,000 people

1:07:22

and I blew my mind well he was in that

1:07:24

event so give you an idea and he's been

1:07:26

a friend for 30 years maybe 25 years where it's been and

1:07:29

he told he's told several people you know Tony won

1:07:32

me over he goes I got dragged there by somebody

1:07:34

I thought this is BS this is a bunch of

1:07:36

crap and I'm not jumping and doing this stuff and

1:07:38

in those days I wear a suit and tie it

1:07:40

was the style of those days so I'm on stage

1:07:43

and you could see the sweat just going down the

1:07:45

tide for some time holy fuck my shirt was soaked

1:07:47

I was sweating like crazy I was giving my soul

1:07:49

he said after he did that he goes I thought

1:07:51

to mess I could jump a few times that son

1:07:53

of a bitch can do that push that stuff so

1:07:56

I think you got to go first you

1:07:58

can't lecture people You got

1:08:00

to be an example, not like you're

1:08:02

perfect or some bullshit. Nobody is. But

1:08:05

where you're willing to see what isn't working and improve

1:08:07

it, and you're willing to constantly find a way to

1:08:09

be better. And if you do that, life's amazing. But

1:08:11

I think there's interesting thing about the Bible that I

1:08:14

don't know if you agree with or not, but I'll

1:08:16

share it with you from my perspective. One

1:08:18

of my sons, when he finally

1:08:21

found Christ, he... You know, a lot of

1:08:23

people, when they find God in whatever form they find God, they

1:08:25

believe that they have found the way and everyone

1:08:27

else should do it that way, right? And his

1:08:29

way was kind of hellfire and damnation at the

1:08:32

time, right? And I'm

1:08:34

cursing myself, right? So it's like, he's lecturing me.

1:08:36

He's just blowing my mind, right? So one day I was

1:08:38

in Fiji, I have a resort there and a time there,

1:08:40

and that's with my wife. And I was like, you know,

1:08:43

I'm not going to influence my son by talking

1:08:45

about this. I said, I

1:08:48

need to read the whole Bible from beginning to end.

1:08:50

I want to do it over the next four or five days. I want to go on

1:08:52

a fast, which is what I did. And I

1:08:54

fasted and read the entire Bible in five days. My

1:08:57

wife will tell you, no bullshit, read the whole thing,

1:08:59

cover to cover. And it's

1:09:01

quite a read. But when you read it... I

1:09:03

might say the best in the world. You sold

1:09:05

a lot of books, but my man Jesus Christ

1:09:07

is a little heavier than you, bro. I

1:09:10

read the Old Testament and the New Testament, right? So read

1:09:12

them both, right? The Old thing, right? And one thing struck me

1:09:14

that I thought was really interesting, and I went to my

1:09:16

son with this because he was so locked up and he's not

1:09:18

like that now. He's much more... It's like, I hate it. I

1:09:21

often tell people the worst thing about Christians sometimes

1:09:23

is Christians, you know? Christ

1:09:25

was not a Christian. You know, we've made this

1:09:27

whole thing up here. Like, this is how it

1:09:30

is, right? My son is becoming like that. I

1:09:32

don't want that. But at the same time... You're

1:09:34

so accurate with that, man. Like, when I was

1:09:36

speaking about Jesus, I made a joke to my

1:09:38

mom. I go, the only people that come at

1:09:40

me are Jesus lovers. Like, Muslims are like, I'm

1:09:42

so proud of you. Jewish people are like, I

1:09:44

respect you. Christians are like, nah. I'm

1:09:46

like, what? They all got their judgment. How it should be,

1:09:48

what should be, right? As if they

1:09:50

had the direct communication. So anyway, I went to

1:09:52

my son after I read this whole thing. And

1:09:55

I thought a lot about it. And I said, you know what? He

1:09:57

actually, I just read the whole Bible from cover to cover. He's like,

1:09:59

no. And my wife's there. She

1:10:01

goes, he did it day and night in Fiji,

1:10:04

five days, eat pineapple, watermelon, and drank water. That

1:10:06

was it. That was fast the entire time. I

1:10:09

says, it was a wild journey. I said, it was beautiful. I

1:10:12

said, then a couple of things, you know,

1:10:15

kind of came to me. I said, the

1:10:17

first thing that came to me is God seems

1:10:19

like a selfish bastard in the first half

1:10:21

of that book. I

1:10:24

said, he's mean, he's jealous,

1:10:26

he's spiteful. I

1:10:29

said, that's not my experience of God. And

1:10:31

maybe the second half of the Bible, right?

1:10:33

This estimate is like God is, it's not

1:10:35

just about one, it's everybody and everyone

1:10:37

can experience this joy and this love. And I

1:10:40

said, so I said, I got a question

1:10:42

for you. Because he was

1:10:44

like, this is what the Bible says. And rather

1:10:46

than saying, look, the Bible has been translated by

1:10:48

men, every group of Romans that may decide what

1:10:50

went in and what went out. And we found

1:10:53

missing pieces of the Bible, all that stuff. I

1:10:55

just simply said, do you

1:10:57

think God grows? He

1:11:00

looked at me and said, what are you saying?

1:11:02

Is this technique? I said, it's not a

1:11:04

technique. I said, it's a simple question. Because

1:11:06

I mean the first time in the Bible and God

1:11:08

seems very selfish and spiteful and

1:11:10

mean. And second part, totally completely

1:11:13

loving. So I said, everything in

1:11:15

the universe grows or dies. God

1:11:18

knows what's going to happen for, what's going to happen,

1:11:20

knows your thoughts. I said, I'll buy all that. But

1:11:22

my question is not that. He goes, well, then you're

1:11:24

saying it doesn't mean the same thing as the words.

1:11:26

I said, no, I just said, does God grow? He

1:11:31

really thought about it for a little bit. And

1:11:33

I said, cause my concern is your experience of

1:11:35

God is through a minister, which I think it's

1:11:37

a beautiful thing, but I'd love it if you'd

1:11:39

had a direct experience of God. And

1:11:42

that was what you're making judgments from rather than

1:11:44

what somebody else tells you. I'd love to have

1:11:46

you read that same Bible and see what your

1:11:48

experience it is rather than someone telling you what

1:11:50

it means to their filters. And

1:11:52

that's the only thing I wish I wish everybody's

1:11:54

experience of God, quite frankly, was as unique as

1:11:56

your signature. So instead of fighting over, you have

1:11:59

to have my signature. Everybody

1:12:01

wanted to have their own individual signature, their own

1:12:03

individual connection with God. That's the connection that I

1:12:05

personally experience in a way I perceive God. And

1:12:08

so that's why I don't try to make other people to be

1:12:10

a certain way, or my way is, or somebody else's way is.

1:12:13

I just want them to experience the joy

1:12:15

of knowing that they're not alone and that

1:12:17

they're made of something way more than their

1:12:19

intellect and their ego. I love that you

1:12:21

challenge your son in ways

1:12:23

that are uncomfortable, because you know there's a lot

1:12:25

of men that are like, I don't want my

1:12:27

son to get like this, I don't want to

1:12:30

get... and they spare the rod. You

1:12:32

get what I'm saying? Listen, the

1:12:35

reason I have my utmost respect for

1:12:37

God is because my father made me

1:12:39

respect him. And so I

1:12:41

had a way to look at my father. I'll give you

1:12:43

an example. People are

1:12:45

like, well wait, if God presents

1:12:47

himself, then okay, listen. Listen.

1:12:53

My father is an Assyrian

1:12:56

man that has flesh. Do

1:12:58

you know what that man would do to me? If

1:13:00

I was ever like, you come over here, and I need you,

1:13:03

come here. My dad would be like, me come here, me come

1:13:05

here. And then he would dismantle

1:13:08

me where I stand and

1:13:10

then reshape my mind to

1:13:12

know that there comes with respect. I

1:13:15

have to respect my father. I'm not going to make my

1:13:17

father get up so he could come to me. I'm going

1:13:19

to get up to go to my father. And

1:13:21

I really, really do feel the same way that we communicate

1:13:23

right here. You'll understand me

1:13:25

more if there's love. If you're not

1:13:27

coming and presenting yourself fully humbly and surrendering

1:13:30

yourself with love, I don't

1:13:32

think God's going to even want to talk to you. Well,

1:13:34

what if you're God, and you come here to this

1:13:36

incredible place you created called Planet Earth, and

1:13:39

you walk up to one of your creations and you

1:13:41

say, hey creation, this is so-and-so,

1:13:43

Mr. so-and-so. How are

1:13:45

you liking this thing I created for you? And the person says,

1:13:47

God, I'm glad you showed up because I got a bone to

1:13:49

pick with you. I mean, first of all, why do you make

1:13:51

it so effing hot all the time? I mean, you could have

1:13:54

made it 72 degrees year round

1:13:56

here. I mean, it's insane. And then you make

1:13:58

these stupid people that get it right. my

1:14:00

way and either feel whether I'm trying to accomplish. Why

1:14:02

wouldn't you make everybody nice and connected? And you make

1:14:04

these little red ass, these little red ass, they bite

1:14:06

my ass. I mean, why would you create such a

1:14:08

thing of your God? And

1:14:11

then God goes to one of his other creations and says,

1:14:13

how are you liking this place? And they say, oh God,

1:14:15

thank God you're here. I've always

1:14:17

wanted to thank you directly. This

1:14:19

is the most amazing paradise. It's so unbelievable. First

1:14:21

of all, you never get bored because you're always

1:14:23

changing the temperature. It's so amazing. You bring so

1:14:26

many people to challenge me to grow. And you

1:14:28

make these little red ass, man, these things

1:14:30

are courageous. They're one millionth by size, they

1:14:32

bite my ass. It's amazing. You know, now

1:14:34

the question is, if you were God, who

1:14:36

do you want to hang out with the

1:14:39

first person or the second one? Wow. So

1:14:41

I tell people say there is no God. I said, there's God just

1:14:43

bitching so much. I just want to hang out with you. I

1:14:49

got a Christian joke. There's a bunch

1:14:51

of scientists and they're like,

1:14:53

God, I don't know if you knew about AI,

1:14:55

but we figured it out, buddy. We don't need

1:14:57

you. In fact, we all smirked at each other.

1:14:59

Like we could create humans now. And God sits

1:15:01

back and goes, really? He goes, Oh yeah. Oh

1:15:04

yeah. He goes, look at show me. So they

1:15:06

look at each other knowing the old Testament. They

1:15:08

grabbed dirt with their hands and he goes, uh,

1:15:10

that's mine. Get your own. It

1:15:14

all comes from God. I, I, that, that joke always made

1:15:16

me laugh. I'm going to share with you. But

1:15:18

well, with my son, what interesting thing is to

1:15:20

his credit was, you know, it created an

1:15:22

opening cause it created a thought

1:15:24

that couldn't get out of his head. Does

1:15:26

God grow? Okay. Well then I want the

1:15:28

Bible to guide me, but I also need

1:15:30

to do my part and see everything's evolving.

1:15:32

But the core principles of love, they're

1:15:35

part of every religion. Truthfully, they're what

1:15:37

is the core truth. I neighbor, like myself,

1:15:40

lovely neighbor, like myself, right? Which by the

1:15:42

way, implies that you would actually love yourself,

1:15:44

not fake love, ego love, but

1:15:46

a depth of caring for yourself because you care

1:15:48

for yourself. You care for others when you're beating

1:15:50

yourself up all the time. Pretty soon you can't

1:15:53

handle it. Now you're in other people's faces because

1:15:55

you're so raw, you can't handle it anymore. So

1:15:57

I Just think there's, there's certain universal principles.

1:16:00

Bring lasting outfits and the most important voice

1:16:03

I believe besides love is Grace Because when

1:16:05

you grow everly girls or guys warm and

1:16:07

you don't grow you pay a big price

1:16:10

and will you do grow. You have something

1:16:12

to give and what makes people's life meaningful

1:16:14

is not what it would. Anybody can make

1:16:16

themselves feel good with very few things you

1:16:19

can food, alcohol, have sex with yourself for

1:16:21

the comfort of but it's never as good

1:16:23

by yourself. Now with love with love with

1:16:25

with connection. So when something great happens in

1:16:28

your life the person want to do is

1:16:30

share with somebody and that makes it more.

1:16:32

That's why we have relationships. So I just

1:16:35

think. You. Know Why Does the quality

1:16:37

relationships with cause of relationship with yourself, with your

1:16:39

creative, with your family, with your friends. That's the

1:16:41

quality of a person's life. Everything else is secondary

1:16:43

to that. I wrote something down and I've never

1:16:46

said a solid I want to say to you

1:16:48

and I want to see how you feel about

1:16:50

it and if is the correct way to go

1:16:52

that it's because I'm Shauna Be a Tony Why

1:16:54

don't have as good as I don't know? There's

1:16:57

a correct way for anything there's There's many ways

1:16:59

to get Places are some words joy A both

1:17:01

some that are easier summit succeed faster but I

1:17:03

don't have the right wrong mode within me. About.

1:17:06

How about something? Asks. Why?

1:17:10

But I would say that's exactly what

1:17:12

Tony with so. Ah,

1:17:16

I'm. Reading through comments and I was as gotta go

1:17:18

to I want you to challenge my heart on things

1:17:20

you want me to talk about so that way when

1:17:22

I see as I noted as a great amount of

1:17:24

people are wash my starts at eight a his figure

1:17:26

out to give me was the right like it How

1:17:29

do I figure this out and I'm enjoying this thought.

1:17:32

To. They'll feel like we live in and in an industry.

1:17:34

That in as generation where we have identity issues

1:17:36

and all shapes and forms and the one

1:17:38

identity issue that I see more than anything as

1:17:40

I don't know who I am, I don't

1:17:42

know what I want to become. I

1:17:44

don't know my passions are. I don't

1:17:47

know anything. About myself on.

1:17:50

And something. Came. To me

1:17:52

at or N N are I wanted it

1:17:54

bounces ideal for the this is my hypothesis.

1:17:58

maybe you don't know who you are because

1:18:00

you haven't revealed who your creator is. If

1:18:04

I broke my car and it's a Toyota, I'm not

1:18:06

taking it to Hyundai because the first thing they do

1:18:08

when they pop open the hood, they go, I didn't

1:18:10

create this. I don't know what's inside of this.

1:18:13

And I feel like the people that

1:18:16

I meet that know God know their purpose. And

1:18:18

there are some Christians that are like, hey, like

1:18:20

I still don't know. I know God. I love

1:18:22

God. And to me it's like, okay,

1:18:24

well, how much do you know God? Truly

1:18:27

how much do you know God? And

1:18:29

I really, really have came to the conclusion that if

1:18:31

you do not know who you are, you do not

1:18:33

know who created you. Because

1:18:35

once you find out who created you, the Bible verse

1:18:38

that hits me in the head right away is seek

1:18:40

first the kingdom and then the rest shall come.

1:18:43

What does that even mean? Well, I could tell you

1:18:45

from a man that I was in a place where I shouldn't be.

1:18:48

And I asked God, take my feet and place them

1:18:51

where you want them to be, not where I

1:18:53

want them to be. Because as

1:18:55

a child, I'll give you an example, how

1:18:57

my relationship in Hollywood was. This

1:18:59

is the best way that I could put it

1:19:01

in perspective. I'm a little kid playing

1:19:03

around at the playground and my father in heaven

1:19:06

brought me to this playground. He goes,

1:19:08

okay, go have fun with your friends. And I went and I'm having fun,

1:19:10

but I started acting like them and

1:19:12

I started playing like them. And he calls

1:19:14

me back and goes, hey, hey, hey, come here. What's up? Don't

1:19:17

do this. And I go, well, no, everybody's doing it. He goes, yeah, but

1:19:19

they're not part of our family. We

1:19:22

have respect. We have

1:19:24

different standards, different standards. And

1:19:26

I want to circle back to this right here. It's

1:19:31

easy to mix your standards with everyone

1:19:33

else's. And man, do

1:19:35

I see a lot of copy and paste out there. And

1:19:38

I think we're living in a day and age where

1:19:40

people are so caught up on what everybody else is

1:19:42

doing. They forget to reflect on what they're doing. Well,

1:19:46

it's, it's, you know, the

1:19:48

social media is out of control. What's

1:19:50

that thermos that costs like $45 that kids

1:19:52

now, if they don't have it, they get

1:19:54

hydroflask. What's it called? Hydroflask? No, it's

1:19:56

a different one. It's been around forever. I was just

1:19:58

reading about the other day. Are you talking about

1:20:00

the mug? Yes. I just read about it.

1:20:03

Like five women took it out. It was like the

1:20:05

company was broke. Yeah. It's been around since 1910 or

1:20:07

something like that. And

1:20:11

now these kids, they all want a $45 firmness

1:20:14

because they see everybody else in TikTok has and if

1:20:17

they don't, they get bullied. Oh, that's not really one

1:20:19

of those. That's how insane it is. But it's always

1:20:21

been insane. It's just more insane with social media. It's

1:20:23

magnified it. Yeah. And I just think, look, the

1:20:26

pathway to finding, quote,

1:20:28

your purpose, I think the biggest mistake is thinking

1:20:31

you have one purpose. We have

1:20:33

lots of purposes. We have different purposes in

1:20:35

each day. There might be an overriding purpose

1:20:37

to grow, to give, to contribute, to love,

1:20:39

whatever, to be an expression of God that

1:20:41

you'd be proud of, that God would be

1:20:43

proud of, whatever your belief is. But there's

1:20:45

so many purposes and people get caught up

1:20:47

in having to create some big purpose. You

1:20:49

know what my purpose is? Doubt. It's

1:20:52

really simple. Something I get calls every day of

1:20:54

my life and it's like, especially now because of

1:20:56

the stage of life I'm in and because I

1:20:58

have so many different skills and businesses and so

1:21:00

forth. Somebody's got a challenge in the business. Somebody's

1:21:03

got cancer. Somebody's got Alzheimer's. Somebody is worried about

1:21:05

something with their kid. And it's like,

1:21:07

I take great joy, even though I only have so

1:21:09

many hours in the day, if I can help them,

1:21:11

that's what I want to do. And it's like, I

1:21:13

don't need to make this grand. I used to have,

1:21:15

I'm going to help billions of people. I've done all

1:21:17

that. Millions of people. It's just be

1:21:19

helpful. To me, that's an expression of

1:21:21

love. It also doesn't have the ego

1:21:24

that I have all the answers. It's just, I can be

1:21:26

helpful. That means you're going to do your part too. That's

1:21:28

why I was told to be, I'm not your guru. And

1:21:30

people try to make me in a guru early days. I mean,

1:21:32

I'm not here. You're not broken. You don't need to be fixed.

1:21:35

But I can be helpful because I have some insights

1:21:37

because I focused on something for 47 years. You're

1:21:40

just like, you could teach. I don't

1:21:42

know squat about singing and sound very good. Hey

1:21:45

man, don't pick lessons from me. Or

1:21:48

music or whatever, right? I have my own enjoyment of it,

1:21:50

but I don't have those skillsets. So everybody,

1:21:52

I look at everybody in my life and I go,

1:21:56

I think this is why I get along with so many

1:21:58

different levels and qualities and types of people. in

1:22:00

countries. I can enter

1:22:02

a country because everybody I meet I believe, and this

1:22:04

is no bullshit, I believe they're superior to me. I

1:22:06

see you as superior to me in some way. I

1:22:08

don't know what it is yet till I meet the

1:22:10

person, and you might be superior to something

1:22:12

I don't want to be superior to, like feeling depressed, but you

1:22:14

might be better at it than I am. But you're going to

1:22:17

be better at something because you have different life experience. I

1:22:19

also, so it makes me respect you, it

1:22:21

makes me hold you here, whoever you are.

1:22:23

And people feel that. They feel respected, they feel

1:22:26

loved, they feel cared for. At the same time,

1:22:28

I'm no like wilting flower. I know

1:22:30

who the F-I-M. And I also know

1:22:32

I'm superior to every person I meet in some areas.

1:22:34

Not because I'm so superior, but because I have a

1:22:36

different set of life experiences, and I've worked at it

1:22:38

for 47 years, and every day said I got to

1:22:40

do it better. And so that

1:22:43

makes me feel equality with people. And

1:22:45

when you have that equality, then all that

1:22:48

other crap goes away, and you're not worried

1:22:50

about what everybody's thinking and doing. And some

1:22:52

of it, honestly, George, is just the experience

1:22:54

of living enough life.

1:22:56

Because, you know, there

1:22:58

are stages of life where you get to, where

1:23:00

you just finally say, I don't give a shit.

1:23:02

Like when you're in your 20s, you're kind of

1:23:05

trying to prove yourself to yourself or to other

1:23:07

people. Maybe your 30s, trying to figure things out.

1:23:09

Your 40s can be, look at seasons

1:23:11

of your life. Zero to 20, you know, you're, you

1:23:13

know, you might have

1:23:15

to go to work early like I did, or some families do, but

1:23:17

you're kind of without for it to some extent. Other people are teaching

1:23:19

you what to believe. 22 to 42, you're the soldier

1:23:22

of society. You go out and

1:23:24

say, they told me that crap, but I'm going to

1:23:26

find out what I believe. I'm going to test it.

1:23:28

I'm going to be president of the United States, a

1:23:31

billionaire, and have 150 relationships simultaneously, and everybody's going to

1:23:33

be happy. Then you go out and find

1:23:35

out relationships are more complex than that. And you're not

1:23:37

the president, you're not yet a billionaire. And so it

1:23:39

humbles you. And then you look to grow. Then you

1:23:41

go like 42, 43 to say 63, that range. If

1:23:43

you worked hard in the first two seasons,

1:23:47

if you planted in the spring and you took

1:23:50

care of it in the summer, you're going to

1:23:52

be reaping. You're going to be in a position

1:23:54

of impact, of power, of quality of life. You're

1:23:56

going to, if you're in business, you're going to

1:23:58

be successful at what you you've

1:24:00

learned and grown, you've been through all the ups and downs,

1:24:02

right? Doesn't mean you're done. And then,

1:24:04

you know, you get, say, 64 to 84 to 104 to

1:24:09

120 of the oldest human beings, somewhere in that

1:24:11

final season, then you're in a

1:24:13

mentor relationship. You've lived enough life, you don't need to

1:24:15

prove anything to anybody if they know who you are

1:24:18

great, they know who cares. Right, quite

1:24:20

frankly, do you want them to like you? If you're human,

1:24:22

do you like people? Yes, but it's

1:24:24

not your life in depth anymore. And

1:24:26

so you're not tied to that proving

1:24:28

to yourself or other people, you just

1:24:31

want to serve. And I

1:24:33

think not everybody gets there because not everybody

1:24:35

grows during all those seasons. But if you

1:24:37

really grow during those seasons, I want people

1:24:39

to know, you look at all the studies,

1:24:41

the most difficult time, most happy on time

1:24:43

for most people is 22 to 23 to 43

1:24:45

range. And

1:24:47

then the next, most, and the

1:24:49

starts to be enjoyable is in that 43, 63. If

1:24:53

you're healthy, the strongest time in life, the

1:24:55

happiest time for human beings is 64 to

1:24:57

about 84 if they stay healthy.

1:24:59

Because you know what matters most, it's

1:25:01

relationships. You know who you are, you

1:25:03

know what you believe. You're just,

1:25:06

you're not being pushed around by the wind, you're not

1:25:08

trying to prove anything. And I wish

1:25:10

more people knew the pathway that's really real so that

1:25:12

when they're in the middle of that crap, they could

1:25:14

still have a compelling future. Because I think that's what's

1:25:16

missing. When you talk about depression, our

1:25:19

society is in a winter season. This

1:25:22

happens about every 20 years we go

1:25:24

through a season. When it's springtime, everybody's

1:25:26

optimistic, everything's going great, if

1:25:29

you know your 20s, pardon me? The

1:25:31

roaring flies. Oh, that's even more like fall. Springtime

1:25:33

would be more like after World War II. After

1:25:36

a winter, a really rough time, people

1:25:38

wanted to have babies that had sex like crazy.

1:25:40

They wanted to, they didn't want to be part

1:25:42

of war. They wanted to build and create. We

1:25:44

have this society that's very optimistic. Then

1:25:46

you go through the 70s and 80s after 20 years of that, from

1:25:50

say 45 to around the time John F. Kennedy

1:25:52

got killed. Now it's a summertime, it's

1:25:55

hot, it's difficult. There's fighting usually historically

1:25:57

between older and younger generations during that

1:25:59

time. They don't go to war. I don't want

1:26:01

to go to war. Then you make it

1:26:03

through, exhaust that, and then there's a fall. Life

1:26:06

is like really easy, really tough.

1:26:08

Really easy, really tough. But if you're a god,

1:26:10

you have a nighttime, the dark night of the

1:26:12

soul, you have the morning where it all is

1:26:14

brand new again. You set it up that way,

1:26:16

right? And it builds muscle. It makes you stronger.

1:26:19

Well, in the fall season, you

1:26:21

like, you know, if it's a fall financially, then, you

1:26:23

know, people want to give you a house even though

1:26:25

you don't have a job, right? You remember those days,

1:26:28

right? Money flows, stock markets go crazy. And then eventually

1:26:30

you go back to winter again. And

1:26:32

we're in winter, where people are seeing the

1:26:34

worst case in almost everything in each other,

1:26:36

in society, in the future. Oh my god,

1:26:39

it might be World War III. Oh, you

1:26:41

know, are we going to survive? And it's

1:26:43

exaggerated during that time. But

1:26:45

we get tired of being fearful, and

1:26:48

we start to grow, and we stop being

1:26:50

as judgmental because it takes so much energy

1:26:52

to be upset all the time. Right

1:26:55

now, people still get energy from being upset.

1:26:57

But pretty soon, they'll start to burn out,

1:27:00

and people start to look for something new. And

1:27:02

that something new will be a new springtime, and the world

1:27:05

would be different. There's going to be some major changes in

1:27:07

this world, they have to be. It's

1:27:09

not a bad time. You can see in snowboard

1:27:11

in the winter, you're going to be with your

1:27:13

family, you can have a great fire, you can

1:27:16

build a business. It's a great time. Don't be

1:27:18

mad at the season, use the season. But don't

1:27:20

think that when it's bad, it's going to be

1:27:22

bad forever. Or when it's good, it's going to

1:27:24

be good forever. Life is cyclical, history is cyclical.

1:27:27

So, it's like you want to take advantage of the

1:27:29

season you're in and have some perspective. If you were

1:27:31

born in 1910, I think I shared this with you

1:27:33

guys before, but for your listeners, if you're born in

1:27:35

1910, you don't have to be history buff. Just

1:27:38

remember that first season of springtime is 20

1:27:40

years in your life, right? You're

1:27:42

born in 1910, while you're growing up, we go through World

1:27:44

War I, it's scary, but you're protected, you're not going to

1:27:47

war. You're a kid. And

1:27:50

some tough times, but then we win the

1:27:52

war, we come back, and then there's this

1:27:54

explosion of technology, just like now. In

1:27:57

a short period of time, a few decades, we got

1:27:59

radios, television, and radio. We got

1:28:01

cars, we got airplanes, we have

1:28:03

tremendous economic abundance after all that,

1:28:05

right? It's a big fall. It's

1:28:07

wonderful. The Roaring Twenties. You

1:28:09

were born in 1910, 1920 or 10 years old. Right

1:28:13

at 19, when you think you're going to go party and have a

1:28:16

car, have a great time, by

1:28:18

the way, all those kids, they were called

1:28:20

flappers. They were looked down

1:28:22

on as a weak generation, like baby

1:28:24

boomers and exers look very often at

1:28:27

millennials and zees. Because truthfully,

1:28:29

millennials and zees are great human beings, but

1:28:31

they don't know what pain is. Because what they

1:28:33

think is pain is when their internet doesn't

1:28:35

work. They can't get their ancestors on their fingers.

1:28:37

So they don't know. I'm not being derogatory.

1:28:39

It's just they don't know, but they're going to

1:28:41

because it's just reciprocal. So what happened to

1:28:43

those people? They turned 19 years old in

1:28:46

1929. People

1:28:48

are jumping out of buildings. The economy drops through

1:28:50

the floor. The middle of the country is a

1:28:52

dust bowl. People are standing in line for bread.

1:28:55

Those weak ass kids became

1:28:58

incredibly strong. And

1:29:00

they made it through 10 years of depression. It

1:29:02

wasn't by when you say winter. It's not like

1:29:05

it's bad every day. It's just the

1:29:07

overall theme is fear. The overall theme is overreaction. And

1:29:09

so if you know what happened to depression, there were

1:29:11

some good times in the middle of the depression and

1:29:13

then bad times, right? The overall theme was painful. What

1:29:16

was the reward for 10 years of

1:29:18

making it through a depression and getting

1:29:20

strong? By the time they're 29, it's

1:29:23

1939 and World War II breaks out and you

1:29:25

and I weren't alive then, but it looked like

1:29:27

Hitler was going to win. He was strafing countries

1:29:29

and taking him over in days. He was bombing

1:29:31

London. It looked like the end

1:29:33

of the world. And those people volunteered to go

1:29:35

fight for that. Those

1:29:37

weak ass kids became unbelievably powerful. They became

1:29:39

known. They won the war, World War II.

1:29:42

They came back and they were known as

1:29:44

the greatest generation and they created

1:29:46

a new springtime. This video is sponsored by

1:30:39

me. I'll write it right

1:30:41

here for you. Please visit

1:30:43

the website After

1:30:45

the war like we said everybody was excited

1:30:48

all went well till Kennedy got shot and

1:30:50

then Martin Luther King and then Robert

1:30:52

Kennedy And we went into

1:30:55

a hot summer but think about the 70s and

1:30:57

80s and how they were different than the 90s and 2000s or 2010s and

1:31:01

Listen after 9 11 and after

1:31:03

2008 or in winter winter has

1:31:06

some tough economic times and

1:31:08

winter usually has or Some significant war we're

1:31:10

probably gonna have at least the cyber war with

1:31:12

China We already have one but one that's

1:31:14

more extreme, and we're all gonna have to grow

1:31:16

from it So I think Millennials and Z's

1:31:18

are the new hero generations. They

1:31:21

just haven't gotten there yet They're being getting

1:31:23

prepared because the technology they know how to

1:31:25

use may not a network and communicate all

1:31:27

the good things They've got good values within

1:31:29

themselves when the real tough times come They're

1:31:31

gonna get incredibly strong and they're gonna change

1:31:33

society in a really beautiful way So it's

1:31:35

it's on the verge of happening as we

1:31:37

speak That's what

1:31:39

I mean by good times great weak people We

1:31:42

people great bad times bad times great strong

1:31:44

people strong people good great times That's

1:31:46

really that you can go through century after century

1:31:49

a thousand years of Roman history And you'll see

1:31:51

the same pattern Knowing

1:31:54

that can give you peace though. That's my

1:31:56

point when you recognize patterns. It's

1:31:58

not chaos anymore Oh no, this

1:32:01

is heaven before. Okay, this has a

1:32:03

purpose. Right? I mean, why

1:32:05

would God create winter? Everything looks like it's freezing

1:32:07

and dying. Well, you get rid of the old

1:32:09

and only the strong survive, and then it creates

1:32:11

a new season, the springtime, and new growth, and

1:32:13

new... If things didn't die, there would be no

1:32:15

room for something new to grow. I'm

1:32:18

going to have my time, and I'm going to have to

1:32:20

leave this planet at some point. I don't look forward to

1:32:22

it. But I do look forward to the fact that when

1:32:24

I leave, hopefully, there'll be a lot of souls that I've

1:32:26

contributed to, and a meaningful way I could feel like life

1:32:28

has tremendous meaning. If I die tomorrow,

1:32:30

I get to feel that way. But I also

1:32:32

know that, hey, well, someone

1:32:35

else is going to take this spot. Someone

1:32:37

else is going to have new ways of doing this.

1:32:39

Someone's going to do it better. Someone's going to stand

1:32:41

on the shoulders of the people before them, just like

1:32:43

I stood on the shoulders of people before me. And

1:32:46

I see the beauty in those seasons of life. And

1:32:48

so what it allows me to do is enjoy what

1:32:50

season I'm in, rather than saying, oh my God, you

1:32:52

know, there's only so many years left. Beautifully

1:32:55

said. Amen. You

1:32:57

reap what you sow. Without a doubt. Before

1:33:01

we tap into the new things that you're sowing,

1:33:04

I'm a new, engaged man. Yes,

1:33:07

I know that. Congratulations. Thank you. I appreciate it.

1:33:10

And there's a lot of men right now that, you know,

1:33:12

I feel like the 30s are the new 20s, right? So

1:33:15

there's a lot of men that are... Why

1:33:17

do you laugh at that? Well, because... You don't think

1:33:19

I look 20? No, no, I'm not

1:33:21

looking back. It's just, we've got more

1:33:23

people living at home at 30 years old than any

1:33:25

time in history, including the Depression. And

1:33:28

so I'm looking forward to seeing those people

1:33:30

pushed into a life where they get to grow again,

1:33:32

because you can't be happy when everyone else takes care

1:33:34

of you. You do nothing. And I

1:33:37

feel good for a while. I might feel comfortable, but

1:33:39

you don't have any pride. I don't mean pride

1:33:41

like ego pride. I mean, like when

1:33:43

people talk about self-esteem, I hate that term. It's

1:33:45

so bullshit overused. People think, well, no

1:33:47

one treated me while they said these terrible

1:33:50

things to me, so I have terrible self-esteem.

1:33:52

No. Like, how can you remember

1:33:54

only that? People say good things too, but you

1:33:56

remember those things conveniently, right? Someone could tell your

1:33:58

whole life you're a piece of crap. You're worthless

1:34:00

and some part of you can go, you know

1:34:02

what? I'm gonna show you and you go out

1:34:04

there and crush it in the world, right? Someone

1:34:06

can tell you your whole life. You're beautiful. You're

1:34:08

brilliant. You're amazing You're the best on earth and

1:34:11

you'd feel insecure because you know, you're not It's

1:34:14

not what people say to you The only way

1:34:16

you get self-esteem which means the steam for yourself

1:34:18

is by doing incredibly difficult things And you

1:34:20

know you pushed yourself through it And

1:34:23

then there's an inner pride that no

1:34:25

amount of money No amount of accolades can

1:34:27

match because you could take away everything I quote

1:34:29

have things you can't take away who I've become

1:34:31

as a man That's something

1:34:35

I know You know, I

1:34:37

want to jump into this before I jump into

1:34:39

the engagement thing because this is actually I

1:34:42

grew up in a house where my parents sat me down and they're like

1:34:44

when you turn 18 Well,

1:34:47

they used to say we're not in Mercaya and

1:34:49

that is certainly means we're not American which is

1:34:52

weird because we were American So

1:34:54

imagine growing up in the fucking house that

1:34:57

I had I would get grounded for failing

1:34:59

English and be yelled at in broken English

1:35:01

Like brother, you know, you fucking come do

1:35:03

this homework guys. You're my example. You want

1:35:06

to know why I'm failing you guys But

1:35:09

they would be like we're not in Mercaya when

1:35:11

you're 18. This will always be your home. That's

1:35:14

beautiful. I left when I was 21 But

1:35:19

In my culture, we never were like hey when

1:35:21

you're 18, you're a man get out of the

1:35:23

house That's scary

1:35:25

when you think of that My parents always

1:35:27

encouraged me to go be my man, but they always reassured

1:35:29

me that I'd always have a home And

1:35:32

even when I go to their house, I'm like, oh, I'm going to

1:35:34

my mom's house They're yelling at me. This is your house. Stop saying

1:35:36

it's your mom's house. I'm going 31 years old mom. I have a

1:35:39

At two places now. I don't even have one You

1:35:42

keep this house. Yeah, and they'll

1:35:44

be like no, this is your home and I

1:35:47

think we need it for the

1:35:49

Emmerichias the Americans I think they need

1:35:51

to stop telling their kids that they're men at

1:35:53

18 even though they are man Men,

1:35:57

it's we don't have it. We don't have any

1:35:59

kind of virtual attention transition anymore for that. In many

1:36:01

cultures in the world you have to do something

1:36:03

at that age that makes you a man. You

1:36:05

have to get up and leave the tribe. You

1:36:08

have to go out, go on the hunt. You

1:36:10

have to jump off that pole and survive. They

1:36:12

have all kinds of rituals that make this transition
