1 00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,840 Speaker 1: Hey everyone, Welcome back to On Purpose, the number one 2 00:00:02,920 --> 00:00:05,720 Speaker 1: health podcast in the world. Thanks to each and every 3 00:00:05,720 --> 00:00:08,719 Speaker 1: one of you that come back every week to listen, learn, 4 00:00:08,840 --> 00:00:11,920 Speaker 1: and grow Now. Last month we put out an episode, 5 00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:14,760 Speaker 1: a special one with my friend Lewis House, where we 6 00:00:14,920 --> 00:00:18,440 Speaker 1: dived into relationships. We talked about whether it was possible 7 00:00:18,480 --> 00:00:22,079 Speaker 1: to be with one person for your entire life, and 8 00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:26,640 Speaker 1: whether you could really truly know someone deeply with very 9 00:00:26,640 --> 00:00:29,800 Speaker 1: little time with them. Now this month we talked about 10 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:33,960 Speaker 1: another fascinating topic. Maybe you grew up with some thoughts 11 00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:36,519 Speaker 1: around money, like money is the root of all evil, 12 00:00:36,800 --> 00:00:39,640 Speaker 1: or maybe you grew up with a thought that money 13 00:00:39,720 --> 00:00:43,680 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. Now we had a really fascinating conversation about 14 00:00:43,680 --> 00:00:48,960 Speaker 1: whether you can have money and be spiritual, whether you 15 00:00:49,000 --> 00:00:52,400 Speaker 1: can be doing good in the world and doing good 16 00:00:52,440 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: for yourself. If you're someone who's ever been in that 17 00:00:55,080 --> 00:00:58,000 Speaker 1: dilemma or been in that challenge, or even if I 18 00:00:58,120 --> 00:01:02,160 Speaker 1: had some complicated relationship with money, I think this episode 19 00:01:02,240 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 1: is going to be huge for you, so make sure 20 00:01:04,520 --> 00:01:06,559 Speaker 1: you listen to this one share it with a friend too. 21 00:01:06,640 --> 00:01:09,640 Speaker 1: I think we have so many issues around a mindset 22 00:01:09,680 --> 00:01:12,600 Speaker 1: around money, which creates so many issues in our life 23 00:01:12,880 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: with money. I hope you enjoy it. Me and Jay 24 00:01:22,040 --> 00:01:25,679 Speaker 1: are here and a year ago, Jay and I were 25 00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: having conversations and we said, wouldn't they be interesting if 26 00:01:29,640 --> 00:01:33,000 Speaker 1: we do a new series where Jay's got one of 27 00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:35,240 Speaker 1: the biggest shows in the world. I've been doing my 28 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,160 Speaker 1: show for a long time, and we said, what if 29 00:01:37,160 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: it could come together and do a different topic, a 30 00:01:39,640 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: different theme, a different style of conversation where we're typically 31 00:01:43,959 --> 00:01:48,920 Speaker 1: interviewing other people. And I said, let's create something where 32 00:01:48,920 --> 00:01:52,760 Speaker 1: it's like awkward conversations or awkward therapy right where neither 33 00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:56,919 Speaker 1: of us are therapists, but Jay has this incredible background 34 00:01:57,040 --> 00:02:01,360 Speaker 1: from being a monk and really being a meditator for 35 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: a long time in your life and having the mindset 36 00:02:03,560 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: of this monk mindset, where I have the more of 37 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:08,799 Speaker 1: the athlete mindset, playing sports my whole life at a 38 00:02:08,880 --> 00:02:10,919 Speaker 1: high level. And we said, what if we could bring 39 00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:14,160 Speaker 1: our real world experience from these different perspectives come together 40 00:02:14,880 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: and answer kind of challenging questions that we get a 41 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:23,919 Speaker 1: lot from our different audiences. And so we're creating this 42 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:28,359 Speaker 1: is part one of Awkward Therapy, and we've been trying 43 00:02:28,400 --> 00:02:30,480 Speaker 1: to make this happen for a year. Now we're finally here. 44 00:02:30,960 --> 00:02:34,520 Speaker 1: So what's the first question that we are going to answer, 45 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 1: the first topic that you think we should really dive 46 00:02:36,480 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 1: into it. I was going to stop Lewis though, by 47 00:02:38,320 --> 00:02:41,359 Speaker 1: saying that the thing I love about this is we 48 00:02:41,400 --> 00:02:45,040 Speaker 1: have these conversations anyway the time, all the time time. 49 00:02:45,160 --> 00:02:46,480 Speaker 1: And so for those of you that don't know me 50 00:02:46,480 --> 00:02:48,359 Speaker 1: and Lewis always make sure that we see to that 51 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:50,760 Speaker 1: at least once a month to have dinner together, go 52 00:02:50,840 --> 00:02:54,320 Speaker 1: on a hike, hang out, and that will inevitably turn 53 00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:58,480 Speaker 1: into this it's four hour conversation, conversation about life. Yes, 54 00:02:58,520 --> 00:03:00,800 Speaker 1: and we just thought, how cool would it be to 55 00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:04,399 Speaker 1: have those conversations that are uncomfortable, that are pressing on 56 00:03:04,440 --> 00:03:08,800 Speaker 1: taboo topics, that are a bit thought provoking, pushing on 57 00:03:08,840 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 1: the side of like, oh, that feels really awkward and 58 00:03:11,440 --> 00:03:15,519 Speaker 1: uncomfortable because I think that people are thinking this but 59 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:17,359 Speaker 1: they don't have a place to say it. Yeah, and 60 00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:19,640 Speaker 1: we and we say to each other and I'm like, 61 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:21,600 Speaker 1: I don't know if we could say this outside of 62 00:03:21,600 --> 00:03:24,600 Speaker 1: this private conversation, or if we're gonna get a lot 63 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,520 Speaker 1: of backlash, or maybe I shouldn't have said that, Jay, 64 00:03:27,600 --> 00:03:30,600 Speaker 1: you know, these these conversations that it's just like, how 65 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:33,800 Speaker 1: can we create a safe environment to have open conversations 66 00:03:34,160 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: a level emmanual Acho has done with his conversations with 67 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:41,240 Speaker 1: a black man. Right, It's like, these kind of uncomfortable conversations. 68 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 1: How can we just put these things out there and 69 00:03:44,600 --> 00:03:47,640 Speaker 1: be open minded to it, not be so judgmental or critical. 70 00:03:48,480 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 1: There's no right or wrong. But we're going to come 71 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:54,720 Speaker 1: together and have conversations to try to figure out some 72 00:03:54,760 --> 00:03:58,040 Speaker 1: solutions to some of these bigger questions that a lot 73 00:03:58,080 --> 00:04:00,960 Speaker 1: of people have. Yes, And obviously you've done a lot 74 00:04:01,000 --> 00:04:04,200 Speaker 1: of work on your own, and you've interviewed and are 75 00:04:04,200 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 1: friends with a lot of top elite individuals in different 76 00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:09,520 Speaker 1: waks of life, myself as well, and so we wanted 77 00:04:09,520 --> 00:04:11,320 Speaker 1: to bring it together and see where we can come 78 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 1: up with. I love it. I'm excited. I'm very excited. 79 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:15,200 Speaker 1: We've been trying to make this happen for a year. 80 00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:19,280 Speaker 1: So this is Awkward Therapy, Part one, and the first 81 00:04:19,480 --> 00:04:22,640 Speaker 1: topic of discussion is what Yeah, So the first question 82 00:04:22,640 --> 00:04:26,800 Speaker 1: that we're going to address today is can you be 83 00:04:27,600 --> 00:04:32,720 Speaker 1: aspiring to be wealthy or make money and be spiritual 84 00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 1: at the same time. Yes, that's the first question. And 85 00:04:36,440 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people growing up, I think 86 00:04:40,080 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: both of us probably growing up had these limits around 87 00:04:43,400 --> 00:04:46,040 Speaker 1: people who had money and thinking are they good or 88 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:49,400 Speaker 1: bad people? Are they controlling? Are they mean to people? 89 00:04:50,040 --> 00:04:51,840 Speaker 1: You know, if you have money, can you be a 90 00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:55,159 Speaker 1: good person or have some spiritualness to you? Or is 91 00:04:55,200 --> 00:04:56,680 Speaker 1: it only one or the other. You can either be 92 00:04:56,720 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: mother Teresa and serve you know, you can only be 93 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 1: ju and washed with people's feet in the you know, 94 00:05:02,279 --> 00:05:07,240 Speaker 1: humble or your this money hungry individual, right, yeah, yeah, 95 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:09,880 Speaker 1: And I think that when I was growing up, at 96 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:14,400 Speaker 1: least I grew up in an environment where the people 97 00:05:14,440 --> 00:05:17,000 Speaker 1: around me believed that if someone was wealthy, or someone 98 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: was rich, that they must have done something dodgy or 99 00:05:21,520 --> 00:05:24,240 Speaker 1: bad to get there, like illegal or sketchy or yeah 100 00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: it must be yeah, sketchy or illegal activities. Or they 101 00:05:28,160 --> 00:05:31,080 Speaker 1: must have stabbed someone in the back, or they must 102 00:05:31,120 --> 00:05:34,440 Speaker 1: have hurt someone, or they must be taking advantage of 103 00:05:34,480 --> 00:05:38,760 Speaker 1: someone or manipulating someone, using, abusing, that's the only way 104 00:05:38,800 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 1: they could have got there. And generally the idea that 105 00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:44,359 Speaker 1: we all know of that money is the root of 106 00:05:44,360 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: all evil. I think that was something that I was 107 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,760 Speaker 1: exposed to a lot as a child where a lot 108 00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:53,679 Speaker 1: of people around me believed that, And we weren't wealthy, 109 00:05:54,320 --> 00:05:58,640 Speaker 1: so we weren't in a position of financial strength. And 110 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:01,559 Speaker 1: often my extended family and others would look to people 111 00:06:01,560 --> 00:06:05,039 Speaker 1: with wealth and if we would admire that or see something, 112 00:06:05,080 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: they would be quick to like gampen that and be 113 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,440 Speaker 1: like no, no, no, no no, no, they they you know, 114 00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:11,440 Speaker 1: they just do all this kind of stuff. And so 115 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:13,599 Speaker 1: I think there was always that negative view towards people 116 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,200 Speaker 1: who are rich? How do we how do we get 117 00:06:15,200 --> 00:06:18,480 Speaker 1: to a place? So should we admire people that are wealthy? 118 00:06:18,640 --> 00:06:21,200 Speaker 1: Should we? Should we look to that and say, it's 119 00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 1: really cool what they've built. Should we admire the accomplishment 120 00:06:24,880 --> 00:06:31,039 Speaker 1: of amassing a ton of wealth? Or should we? Or 121 00:06:31,120 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: is that not something to admire? As you always ask 122 00:06:34,360 --> 00:06:37,000 Speaker 1: the best question this is like you know what I mean? 123 00:06:38,320 --> 00:06:41,880 Speaker 1: Do you admire the results? For you admire the person 124 00:06:41,920 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: they've become on the journey of accomplishing the results and 125 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 1: how they the actions they had in order to get there. 126 00:06:48,920 --> 00:06:50,600 Speaker 1: So this is my an interview Lewis. So I'm gonna 127 00:06:50,600 --> 00:06:52,440 Speaker 1: make you out yes, And first I want to hear 128 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:55,840 Speaker 1: you all that I think this is interesting because I 129 00:06:55,920 --> 00:06:58,840 Speaker 1: was going to ask you about it. No, I was 130 00:06:58,839 --> 00:07:01,880 Speaker 1: going to have a conversation about out how you first, 131 00:07:01,920 --> 00:07:04,279 Speaker 1: because I remember having this conversation years ago with you 132 00:07:04,560 --> 00:07:09,480 Speaker 1: where you never thought that like making money was for you. 133 00:07:09,480 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 1: You were just like struggling in New York City trying 134 00:07:12,280 --> 00:07:14,760 Speaker 1: to make it and kind of live like months by 135 00:07:14,800 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 1: month in a sense. And you told me you kind 136 00:07:17,080 --> 00:07:20,640 Speaker 1: of had this limit around can I be spiritual and 137 00:07:20,760 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 1: make a lot of money? Can I serve the world, 138 00:07:23,720 --> 00:07:27,120 Speaker 1: make you know, wisdom go viral? And also is it 139 00:07:27,160 --> 00:07:30,000 Speaker 1: okay to receive money? Is it okay to like charge 140 00:07:30,040 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: what I'm worth or charge more for my services? So 141 00:07:34,040 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: I remember having this conversation with you, and I was like, 142 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:40,920 Speaker 1: I vaguely remember what I said. I said, you know, 143 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,080 Speaker 1: I think you're doing a disservice to yourself by not 144 00:07:43,720 --> 00:07:46,960 Speaker 1: generating more to be able to then hire more people 145 00:07:47,000 --> 00:07:49,480 Speaker 1: to scale this message beyond. So you're not putting all 146 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:51,920 Speaker 1: the weight on your shoulders to be able to invest 147 00:07:51,960 --> 00:07:55,160 Speaker 1: in more nutrition and food and comfortable sleeping space for yourself, 148 00:07:55,160 --> 00:07:58,160 Speaker 1: all that stuff, so you can serve at a greater level. 149 00:07:58,280 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: And so I think I'm answering the question. Whereas like, 150 00:08:01,640 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: I think, if you're doing your life and you're being 151 00:08:05,200 --> 00:08:07,360 Speaker 1: in service and being the best you can be as 152 00:08:07,440 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: kind as possible to people on that journey, then I 153 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:13,560 Speaker 1: think it's both admirable and it's cool to see what 154 00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,840 Speaker 1: you could create financially as well with the impact you're 155 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:19,240 Speaker 1: creating in the world. But it's all about how you 156 00:08:19,280 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: show up on the day to day, how you treat 157 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:24,800 Speaker 1: people in the journey of amassing the wealth. I think that. 158 00:08:25,120 --> 00:08:27,320 Speaker 1: But if you've generated a lot of money, but you've 159 00:08:27,320 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: been in a jerk, or you haven't been in service 160 00:08:30,040 --> 00:08:33,120 Speaker 1: except for to yourself only, then that's not something to 161 00:08:33,280 --> 00:08:38,040 Speaker 1: admire as a whole man perspective. Yeah, yeah, that's my thought. 162 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:40,480 Speaker 1: I think that's beautiful. I love that and I remember 163 00:08:40,520 --> 00:08:43,079 Speaker 1: that conversation as well. And I want to go back 164 00:08:43,080 --> 00:08:44,920 Speaker 1: to that question you asked though, because it's such a 165 00:08:45,040 --> 00:08:49,199 Speaker 1: it's such a powerful question that should we admire people 166 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:52,240 Speaker 1: who are wealthy? And I think we have to be 167 00:08:52,360 --> 00:08:57,400 Speaker 1: careful about what we admire because what you admire will 168 00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 1: be what your actions aspire towards. So you'll start taking 169 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:06,120 Speaker 1: on those actions correct, You'll start taking actions and behaviors 170 00:09:06,240 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 1: and decisions towards what you admire. And so I would 171 00:09:11,080 --> 00:09:14,960 Speaker 1: say that I've always admired people who had a purpose. 172 00:09:15,320 --> 00:09:18,959 Speaker 1: That's what I admire deeply when I meet someone, I say, 173 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:23,440 Speaker 1: there's two things that I admire, purpose and humility. If 174 00:09:23,480 --> 00:09:26,600 Speaker 1: I meet someone who has purpose, they're willing to sacrifice, 175 00:09:26,920 --> 00:09:30,840 Speaker 1: They're willing to do whatever it takes. They are mission driven, 176 00:09:30,920 --> 00:09:32,559 Speaker 1: they want to serve the world. It's why I was 177 00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:34,840 Speaker 1: always a fan of Viewers from before we even met 178 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:36,959 Speaker 1: and we knew each other, because I was like, Oh, 179 00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,640 Speaker 1: here's a person who really wants to do good in 180 00:09:38,640 --> 00:09:41,080 Speaker 1: the world. Here's a person who really wants to give 181 00:09:41,640 --> 00:09:43,760 Speaker 1: And so I think that's the first thing I look for. 182 00:09:44,240 --> 00:09:46,439 Speaker 1: And then the second thing I deeply admire is someone 183 00:09:46,440 --> 00:09:50,040 Speaker 1: who has humilities, someone who I feel that they were 184 00:09:50,080 --> 00:09:51,960 Speaker 1: really doing it from the goodness of their hearts. So 185 00:09:52,000 --> 00:09:55,320 Speaker 1: I think for me, my admiration has always been for 186 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:58,240 Speaker 1: those two things. And I don't think I can tell 187 00:09:58,320 --> 00:10:00,680 Speaker 1: someone whether what they admire is right or wrong. But 188 00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:04,079 Speaker 1: I would say that if you admire something, your actions 189 00:10:04,080 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 1: are going to start dictating your journey in that direction, right, 190 00:10:07,679 --> 00:10:09,680 Speaker 1: And so you have to be careful what you admire, 191 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,439 Speaker 1: because that's what you're going to chase, right And so 192 00:10:13,640 --> 00:10:17,880 Speaker 1: I would say that I like admiring purpose and humility 193 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,080 Speaker 1: because I think they are worthy of a pursuit. Sure, 194 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:24,920 Speaker 1: who are some people that we could think about, you know, 195 00:10:25,360 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: who have a mass a lot of money, but also 196 00:10:28,280 --> 00:10:31,560 Speaker 1: we feel like our purpose driven and in service to 197 00:10:31,600 --> 00:10:33,560 Speaker 1: whatever their gift is. Who are some people that we 198 00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:37,280 Speaker 1: can think about. Yeah, I wasn't thinking about this beforehand, 199 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:40,320 Speaker 1: but I'm just curious about who is living that lifestyle 200 00:10:40,400 --> 00:10:43,640 Speaker 1: right now. Yeah, that's and that's a tough question. And 201 00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:46,000 Speaker 1: I think I mean, i'd say we know, we know 202 00:10:46,040 --> 00:10:48,760 Speaker 1: a few people in our own world. I think people 203 00:10:48,840 --> 00:10:53,760 Speaker 1: that I've I've always admired and looked up to. Anyone 204 00:10:53,960 --> 00:10:57,640 Speaker 1: from that, I'd say, that's a hard question. There are 205 00:10:57,720 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: there are people like coming to my mind right now, 206 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:02,680 Speaker 1: but I'd probably say that I think Oprah's work has 207 00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: been phenomenal, like the conversation she's had that have shifted 208 00:11:07,520 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: culture or shifted humanity on her TV show, because she's 209 00:11:11,679 --> 00:11:16,520 Speaker 1: brought in an entertainment you know, TV show, but brought 210 00:11:16,600 --> 00:11:19,800 Speaker 1: in the elements of healing, of prayer, of meditation, of 211 00:11:19,920 --> 00:11:24,720 Speaker 1: spirituality of you know, creating consciousness in the planet, which 212 00:11:24,760 --> 00:11:28,040 Speaker 1: I think is powerful. So she's bringing purpose to entertainment 213 00:11:28,679 --> 00:11:32,200 Speaker 1: and she's built a massive empire. Financially. Eve been rewarded 214 00:11:32,440 --> 00:11:35,160 Speaker 1: for that service exactly, exactly, and I think that's a 215 00:11:35,200 --> 00:11:37,560 Speaker 1: great thing. I think that's the reason why I find 216 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:42,800 Speaker 1: this question so interesting, because if we're saying that spiritual 217 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,680 Speaker 1: people can't be rich, that means that spiritual people have 218 00:11:47,800 --> 00:11:50,800 Speaker 1: to be poor. That means all the people that are 219 00:11:50,960 --> 00:11:54,160 Speaker 1: rich are not spiritual. Right, is that the world we 220 00:11:54,200 --> 00:11:55,880 Speaker 1: want to live in? If we want to live in 221 00:11:55,880 --> 00:11:59,960 Speaker 1: a world where the wealthiest people or the most externally 222 00:12:00,960 --> 00:12:03,839 Speaker 1: people who have the most resources are people who don't 223 00:12:03,840 --> 00:12:07,040 Speaker 1: have spiritual intention, I don't know if that's the world 224 00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:08,720 Speaker 1: I want my kids to grow up in or the 225 00:12:08,720 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: world that I want to live in. I would rather 226 00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,280 Speaker 1: grow up in a world where the most influential people 227 00:12:13,760 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 1: had a deep spiritual intention. Yes, and with that spiritual intention, 228 00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:22,280 Speaker 1: they were there. I guess we're rewarded financially for their 229 00:12:22,480 --> 00:12:25,920 Speaker 1: level of impact and service. The challenge, The interesting thing 230 00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: is if you have that much humility, and you have 231 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: that much spiritual intention towards your life and service. Does 232 00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 1: the money matter? Yeah? Does it does it matter as 233 00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:41,480 Speaker 1: much like the more you earn, and does it really 234 00:12:41,520 --> 00:12:44,320 Speaker 1: impact the individual's life if they have a million dollars 235 00:12:44,440 --> 00:12:48,400 Speaker 1: or one hundred million dollars. That's the interesting thing also, Yeah, 236 00:12:48,400 --> 00:12:51,320 Speaker 1: I mean I'm interested in hearing your point because the 237 00:12:51,320 --> 00:12:53,280 Speaker 1: perspective you gave to me a few years ago when 238 00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: when you brought up that point, like I remember having 239 00:12:57,280 --> 00:13:01,040 Speaker 1: like hundreds of millions of views and four months away 240 00:13:01,080 --> 00:13:06,120 Speaker 1: from being broke, and it's yeah, and it was really true. 241 00:13:06,160 --> 00:13:07,880 Speaker 1: Like I would say in meetings and people will be like, 242 00:13:08,040 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: how many of years have you had now? And I 243 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 1: would share that, and I was getting all this incredible feedback, 244 00:13:12,880 --> 00:13:15,280 Speaker 1: and then I didn't have any money and I was 245 00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:18,960 Speaker 1: literally gonna be broken four months. And what I realized 246 00:13:19,160 --> 00:13:24,360 Speaker 1: was that that was negatively impacting the amount of impact 247 00:13:24,400 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: I could have sustainably long term. And it's what you 248 00:13:28,600 --> 00:13:32,160 Speaker 1: said to me that what if you're making money, but 249 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:35,240 Speaker 1: then you're investing that in your team. What if you're 250 00:13:35,280 --> 00:13:39,800 Speaker 1: expanding and creating more opportunity like today, what we have 251 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:42,559 Speaker 1: teams across the world. You have your team here, I 252 00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:46,520 Speaker 1: have my teams who are also living their purpose and 253 00:13:46,559 --> 00:13:48,680 Speaker 1: we can only employ them because there's growth in this 254 00:13:48,920 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 1: regard and then they're getting to have a deeper impact. 255 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:55,560 Speaker 1: So to me, it depends on what scale of impact 256 00:13:56,080 --> 00:13:58,480 Speaker 1: you want to have, Like yeah, And I think also 257 00:13:59,160 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 1: spirituality for me as harmony. It's having peace and inner peace. 258 00:14:03,679 --> 00:14:08,320 Speaker 1: And if you're financially stuck, or you're financially struggling, or 259 00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:13,679 Speaker 1: you feel trapped in financial debt and confusion of financial 260 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,959 Speaker 1: aspect of your life, then I feel like that's holding 261 00:14:16,960 --> 00:14:19,720 Speaker 1: you back from your spiritual progress. So it's figuring out 262 00:14:19,760 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 1: how to have harmony and balance in these areas of 263 00:14:22,000 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: your life and your relationships and your health and your finances. 264 00:14:25,960 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 1: For me, it's so key and going deeper spiritually in 265 00:14:29,280 --> 00:14:32,040 Speaker 1: all of those. So they're all abundant. Yes, if one 266 00:14:32,160 --> 00:14:37,240 Speaker 1: is not abundant, then are you maximizing your spiritual capacities 267 00:14:37,920 --> 00:14:42,400 Speaker 1: of this lifetime? And so I think it's and I 268 00:14:42,440 --> 00:14:44,760 Speaker 1: think so many of us grew up thinking that money 269 00:14:44,800 --> 00:14:47,320 Speaker 1: was the root of valuable or people with money were 270 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:50,680 Speaker 1: bad or this and this whatever we thought of. But 271 00:14:50,720 --> 00:14:53,360 Speaker 1: I think it's time to start changing the narrative and saying, Okay, 272 00:14:53,360 --> 00:14:56,720 Speaker 1: I'm going to use money for good, and how can 273 00:14:56,800 --> 00:15:00,880 Speaker 1: I make a commitment to myself to use some of 274 00:15:00,920 --> 00:15:03,440 Speaker 1: my money to be in service of other people, not 275 00:15:03,480 --> 00:15:06,320 Speaker 1: just all for myself or needing the flashy cars or things. 276 00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,840 Speaker 1: We both like nice things. You like fashion and experiences. 277 00:15:10,880 --> 00:15:13,880 Speaker 1: I love travel and adventure and healthy foods and investing 278 00:15:13,880 --> 00:15:16,680 Speaker 1: in that. You know, we take care of our health. 279 00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:19,400 Speaker 1: We have trainers and nutritionists these things. I think it's 280 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:22,680 Speaker 1: important so we have more energy and capacity to be 281 00:15:22,760 --> 00:15:25,640 Speaker 1: of service. So I don't think there's anything wrong personally 282 00:15:25,640 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 1: with making a lot of money or having focus on 283 00:15:29,560 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 1: profit and purpose. But I think you want to have 284 00:15:32,640 --> 00:15:35,200 Speaker 1: both so you can scale both. There's a lot of 285 00:15:35,200 --> 00:15:38,680 Speaker 1: people who are so well intended who have big missions 286 00:15:38,880 --> 00:15:41,240 Speaker 1: but don't know how to make money to serve their mission, 287 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:45,400 Speaker 1: and they're doing a disservice to their cause because they 288 00:15:45,440 --> 00:15:49,080 Speaker 1: haven't figured out the skill of copyrighting or enrolling people 289 00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:54,160 Speaker 1: in fundraising or sales, or some skill to bring in 290 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:57,720 Speaker 1: revenue to support the cause or the mission. And I 291 00:15:57,760 --> 00:16:00,080 Speaker 1: think that's where a lot of nonprofits struggle with the 292 00:16:00,240 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 1: years they're not thinking about all these other things they 293 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:07,320 Speaker 1: have to do to serve Yeah. Yeah, And I like 294 00:16:07,440 --> 00:16:09,760 Speaker 1: that because I also want to clarify that for someone 295 00:16:09,800 --> 00:16:14,800 Speaker 1: who is spiritual, or is conscious or is a whatever 296 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: word you want to use, or even is in focused 297 00:16:17,440 --> 00:16:22,320 Speaker 1: on personal growth or self development, their goal is not profit. 298 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:27,040 Speaker 1: Their goal is their purpose, their mission, their service. But 299 00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,600 Speaker 1: they recognize that this is something that they have to 300 00:16:29,640 --> 00:16:34,880 Speaker 1: think about and organize around in order to serve the purpose. 301 00:16:34,920 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 1: So I think it's more about what's your top priority. Like, 302 00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,800 Speaker 1: you don't wake up in the morning every day going 303 00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:43,320 Speaker 1: how can I make more money today? Like that's not 304 00:16:43,400 --> 00:16:45,760 Speaker 1: the mindset. You wake up in the morning going how 305 00:16:45,760 --> 00:16:47,520 Speaker 1: can we serve more people? How can we have a 306 00:16:47,560 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: greater impact? How can we help more people? And you 307 00:16:50,520 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 1: realize that creating a profitable business or income is a 308 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:58,120 Speaker 1: part of that purpose. And I think that's the clarity 309 00:16:58,160 --> 00:17:01,680 Speaker 1: that we need. Yeah, our measurement for our company is 310 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:04,520 Speaker 1: to serve one hundred million lives weekly to help them 311 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,760 Speaker 1: improve the quality of their life. Exactly. It's not to 312 00:17:06,840 --> 00:17:08,560 Speaker 1: make X amounts, it's not to make a one hundred 313 00:17:08,560 --> 00:17:12,879 Speaker 1: million dollars a year. But in the okay, how do 314 00:17:12,960 --> 00:17:17,080 Speaker 1: we solve this this mission equation, which is we want 315 00:17:17,080 --> 00:17:19,239 Speaker 1: to reach one hundred million lives weekly? What does that 316 00:17:19,320 --> 00:17:21,720 Speaker 1: take well, most of it is through video right now, 317 00:17:22,359 --> 00:17:25,960 Speaker 1: video through audio content, through social media, through books, through 318 00:17:26,000 --> 00:17:29,600 Speaker 1: these different ways to scale a message. Right a different 319 00:17:29,600 --> 00:17:32,840 Speaker 1: way to scale a message which takes money, resources, and 320 00:17:32,960 --> 00:17:36,960 Speaker 1: a team to execute on these different challenges in business 321 00:17:36,960 --> 00:17:39,800 Speaker 1: to reach that mission. And so it's thinking, Okay, we 322 00:17:39,880 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: need more people to support on the team. That's going 323 00:17:42,640 --> 00:17:44,080 Speaker 1: to take more money. So how do we make the 324 00:17:44,119 --> 00:17:48,160 Speaker 1: money to hire people to serve the mission? And through 325 00:17:48,200 --> 00:17:51,760 Speaker 1: the process of figuring out the purpose equation, how to 326 00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:56,240 Speaker 1: solve that purpose conversation, then you need to figure out 327 00:17:56,320 --> 00:17:59,040 Speaker 1: money that's tied to it. Yes, And I also want 328 00:17:59,080 --> 00:18:02,399 Speaker 1: to make that point that you have to be really 329 00:18:02,600 --> 00:18:07,399 Speaker 1: vigilant on this path so that you don't buy into 330 00:18:07,440 --> 00:18:10,440 Speaker 1: your own hype. In the sense of it, you can 331 00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:14,040 Speaker 1: convince yourself of anything, and you could convince yourself that 332 00:18:14,040 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 1: you're serving people and you're doing this and doing that, 333 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:17,960 Speaker 1: and then you make loads of money and then you 334 00:18:18,040 --> 00:18:20,840 Speaker 1: just convince yourself that it's all okay. And so, yes, 335 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,040 Speaker 1: you have to be more vigilant on this path. I 336 00:18:23,040 --> 00:18:25,600 Speaker 1: don't think it's fair to say that, oh, it doesn't matter, 337 00:18:25,640 --> 00:18:29,679 Speaker 1: it's all good. You've got to check. So you have 338 00:18:29,760 --> 00:18:34,080 Speaker 1: to remain accountable in some way to make sure that 339 00:18:34,119 --> 00:18:37,800 Speaker 1: you are continuing to do good with the greater facilities 340 00:18:37,800 --> 00:18:40,880 Speaker 1: and responsibility as opposed to, Oh, I just made five 341 00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:43,080 Speaker 1: million this year, twenty million this year, and I'm getting 342 00:18:43,119 --> 00:18:47,960 Speaker 1: all these accomplishments and awards and recognition. So figuring out 343 00:18:47,960 --> 00:18:52,480 Speaker 1: how to stay humble and confident purpose at the same 344 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: time at the same time to not get carried away 345 00:18:55,280 --> 00:18:58,200 Speaker 1: by an opportunity because of that. And so what I'm 346 00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:00,640 Speaker 1: saying is that the reason why people think you either 347 00:19:00,640 --> 00:19:06,439 Speaker 1: have to be spiritual or financially successful is because they think, well, 348 00:19:06,600 --> 00:19:08,359 Speaker 1: if you're going down the spiritual path, money can be 349 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:10,600 Speaker 1: a distraction, or if you're going down money, then spirituality 350 00:19:10,600 --> 00:19:13,560 Speaker 1: will distract you. And that is true. That is real. 351 00:19:13,720 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: Like you can get really materialistic trying to be spiritual, sure, 352 00:19:18,960 --> 00:19:22,200 Speaker 1: and you can become distracted from your materialism by being spiritual. 353 00:19:22,280 --> 00:19:26,320 Speaker 1: That is true. But the goal of life is to 354 00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:30,000 Speaker 1: live in that paradox, like in that middle point of 355 00:19:30,000 --> 00:19:32,199 Speaker 1: trying to figure it out. So I often say to 356 00:19:32,200 --> 00:19:35,639 Speaker 1: people like I don't consider that we've and I know 357 00:19:35,720 --> 00:19:37,520 Speaker 1: we both feel this way. We haven't figured it out. 358 00:19:37,560 --> 00:19:39,959 Speaker 1: We don't know we don't know everything about everything, but 359 00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,879 Speaker 1: I'm trying to toggle with that because I believe that 360 00:19:42,920 --> 00:19:45,359 Speaker 1: the truth is in the middle. The truth isn't in 361 00:19:45,400 --> 00:19:47,840 Speaker 1: the either. All. Yeah, I think it's interesting. I want 362 00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:55,080 Speaker 1: to talk about also how we have individually stayed accountable 363 00:19:55,280 --> 00:19:59,440 Speaker 1: humble in our growth and our trajectory individually, because there's 364 00:19:59,440 --> 00:20:01,439 Speaker 1: a one point where I had no followers. At one 365 00:20:01,480 --> 00:20:03,520 Speaker 1: point you had no followers, and we had no business. 366 00:20:04,200 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: And now both of us have you know, an ascension 367 00:20:07,320 --> 00:20:12,840 Speaker 1: of audience, of opportunities, of money, of accomplishments, awards, things 368 00:20:12,840 --> 00:20:16,359 Speaker 1: like that. I'll ask you first, and then i'll answer 369 00:20:16,680 --> 00:20:21,720 Speaker 1: how have you question? But I'm curious how you have 370 00:20:21,920 --> 00:20:27,640 Speaker 1: managed the rise to financial gain over the last five 371 00:20:27,720 --> 00:20:32,560 Speaker 1: years and audience gain and recognition gain. How have you? 372 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:37,159 Speaker 1: And I'll answer myself, how have you personally stayed humble 373 00:20:37,680 --> 00:20:41,080 Speaker 1: in the process of the rise financially That that's what 374 00:20:41,119 --> 00:20:43,720 Speaker 1: I mean by the vigilance, like in the sense of 375 00:20:44,800 --> 00:20:50,160 Speaker 1: you can't ever be complacent about your inner journey. So 376 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:53,520 Speaker 1: if at any point you think you're humble, you're automatically 377 00:20:53,560 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: not humble. If you think you're so, I need to 378 00:20:57,320 --> 00:21:03,320 Speaker 1: stop saying that to my girlfriend, I'm so yeah. If 379 00:21:03,320 --> 00:21:05,879 Speaker 1: you think you're humble, you're not humble. If you think 380 00:21:05,960 --> 00:21:10,520 Speaker 1: you've been really grounded, you're not grounded, because that automatically 381 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:13,840 Speaker 1: cancels out the other. But at the same time, I 382 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:16,800 Speaker 1: would say that for me, what are my anchors? And 383 00:21:16,840 --> 00:21:19,960 Speaker 1: I think I look at them as anchors. We've been 384 00:21:19,960 --> 00:21:22,719 Speaker 1: getting so many amazing reviews for The Daily Jay, my 385 00:21:22,800 --> 00:21:26,119 Speaker 1: new daily guided meditation series on the car Map. You 386 00:21:26,200 --> 00:21:28,080 Speaker 1: might have heard a couple of snippets on the podcast 387 00:21:28,119 --> 00:21:29,959 Speaker 1: for a few weeks, so in case you haven't had 388 00:21:30,000 --> 00:21:31,879 Speaker 1: the chance to check it out, I just wanted to 389 00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:35,240 Speaker 1: share this review from Caitlin, an elementary school teacher from 390 00:21:35,280 --> 00:21:37,960 Speaker 1: New Jersey. He's what she had to say. I have 391 00:21:38,040 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: over nine years of experience in the American public school 392 00:21:40,960 --> 00:21:44,960 Speaker 1: education system, including teaching throughout the pandemic. Over the past 393 00:21:44,960 --> 00:21:47,679 Speaker 1: two years, I've seen extreme cases of anxiety and my 394 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,040 Speaker 1: students like never before. Many of these children have never 395 00:21:51,080 --> 00:21:54,640 Speaker 1: experienced these feelings before, and most are not even sure 396 00:21:54,720 --> 00:21:57,400 Speaker 1: of what they are feeling. My school district has spent 397 00:21:57,480 --> 00:22:00,919 Speaker 1: a great deal of time focusing on social emotional learning 398 00:22:01,160 --> 00:22:04,320 Speaker 1: SEL through this school year. We try to teach coping 399 00:22:04,320 --> 00:22:07,080 Speaker 1: skills and focus on teaching kids how to deal with 400 00:22:07,119 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: their feelings and become the best version of themselves. As 401 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:13,239 Speaker 1: someone who has also been experiencing the many anxieties of 402 00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:16,200 Speaker 1: the world today, I have recently downloaded the car mapp 403 00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,400 Speaker 1: thanks to my mom. My mom and I are big 404 00:22:18,440 --> 00:22:20,480 Speaker 1: fans of yours, and once she heard that you will 405 00:22:20,480 --> 00:22:23,520 Speaker 1: have seven minutes of Daily Jay each day, she encouraged 406 00:22:23,560 --> 00:22:27,040 Speaker 1: me in doing this.

If you've ever wanted to 410 00:22:37,119 --> 00:22:39,560 Speaker 1: meditate with me, join me on the car Map for 411 00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:43,280 Speaker 1: the Daily Jay, a daily guided meditation where I'll help 412 00:22:43,320 --> 00:22:47,080 Speaker 1: you find calm in the chaos, plant beautiful intentions for 413 00:22:47,119 --> 00:22:50,800 Speaker 1: a happy, abundant life and simple steps for positive actions 414 00:22:51,040 --> 00:22:53,520 Speaker 1: to get you closer to the life of your dreams. 415 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:56,399 Speaker 1: Meditate with me by going to calm dot com forward 416 00:22:56,440 --> 00:22:59,520 Speaker 1: slash Jay to get forty percent off a Calm Premium 417 00:22:59,520 --> 00:23:02,600 Speaker 1: membership that's only forty two dollars for the whole year 418 00:23:02,960 --> 00:23:07,439 Speaker 1: for a daily guided meditation experience. The Daily Jay only 419 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:13,840 Speaker 1: oncong So my first anchor is impact is always greater 420 00:23:13,880 --> 00:23:18,440 Speaker 1: than income. There is always more impact you can make, 421 00:23:18,960 --> 00:23:21,000 Speaker 1: So I know that. For me, what I'm trying to 422 00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:23,880 Speaker 1: do with the work I'm doing is video was an 423 00:23:24,119 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 1: entryway into a journey of transformation. I wanted people to 424 00:23:28,440 --> 00:23:31,280 Speaker 1: move from videos to listen to the podcast, to read 425 00:23:31,320 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 1: the book, to come to events, to come to retreats 426 00:23:34,080 --> 00:23:36,320 Speaker 1: with me in India, like I want to help people 427 00:23:36,840 --> 00:23:40,520 Speaker 1: go as far on their inner journey as they possibly can. 428 00:23:40,960 --> 00:23:43,480 Speaker 1: That's my personal mission. Is if someone just wants to 429 00:23:43,480 --> 00:23:45,320 Speaker 1: watch a three minute video and it makes them feel better, 430 00:23:45,359 --> 00:23:47,760 Speaker 1: that's beautiful. But if someone one day wants to come 431 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:51,160 Speaker 1: with me to India and live the life I lived 432 00:23:51,160 --> 00:23:53,359 Speaker 1: and have a deep inward journey, then I want to 433 00:23:53,359 --> 00:23:57,320 Speaker 1: be able to facilitate that. I'm still building that bridge 434 00:23:57,720 --> 00:24:00,720 Speaker 1: two people's deeper selves. And the first thing that always 435 00:24:00,800 --> 00:24:03,080 Speaker 1: humbles me and grounds me is I've got a lot 436 00:24:03,119 --> 00:24:05,480 Speaker 1: of work to do. There's so much suffering in pain 437 00:24:05,480 --> 00:24:08,440 Speaker 1: in the world. There is so much unrest in the world, 438 00:24:08,480 --> 00:24:11,120 Speaker 1: there is so much trauma in the world. So we've 439 00:24:11,119 --> 00:24:13,800 Speaker 1: got a long way to go. So all the awards 440 00:24:13,840 --> 00:24:15,880 Speaker 1: and the views they give you confidence that you're going 441 00:24:15,920 --> 00:24:18,760 Speaker 1: in the right direction, but you will know you're far 442 00:24:18,800 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: away from the destination. That's one thing. I think. The 443 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 1: second thing that really helps me is being around still 444 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: spending time with my monk teachers who have very different 445 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:32,520 Speaker 1: vision as to what is valuable in life. Yeah, because 446 00:24:32,520 --> 00:24:34,960 Speaker 1: they don't care about they don't care about material possessions 447 00:24:35,040 --> 00:24:37,679 Speaker 1: or money, and they don't care and so they're not 448 00:24:37,800 --> 00:24:41,200 Speaker 1: impressed by that. And so to be around people who 449 00:24:41,840 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 1: don't admire certain things helps you lose taste for it. 450 00:24:45,040 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 1: It's kind of like when I'm around yeah, Marcus Realius. 451 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,359 Speaker 1: The story is the Marcus Aurelius would walk through I 452 00:24:52,359 --> 00:24:55,240 Speaker 1: guess the town and just have someone saying you're just 453 00:24:55,280 --> 00:24:57,840 Speaker 1: a man when everyone was praising his name and kind 454 00:24:57,840 --> 00:25:00,720 Speaker 1: of bowing to him and saying, you're like this guy right. Yeah. 455 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:04,000 Speaker 1: And it's having that accountability that you talked about people 456 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: in your life that admire you for who you are, 457 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:11,040 Speaker 1: not for what you're creating in the world, right, for 458 00:25:11,160 --> 00:25:15,400 Speaker 1: just your kindness, your heart, you know, your humanness, not 459 00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: the brand that you have built as an individual. I 460 00:25:19,359 --> 00:25:24,600 Speaker 1: think that's so important to have my girlfriend Martha over Christmas. 461 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:28,240 Speaker 1: They did it. She's great. Over Christmas. They have this 462 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:32,160 Speaker 1: like little game that their family does where you pick out, 463 00:25:32,240 --> 00:25:34,000 Speaker 1: like a word that's going to be your kind of 464 00:25:34,040 --> 00:25:36,520 Speaker 1: your word of intention for the year, and it's supposed 465 00:25:36,560 --> 00:25:38,920 Speaker 1: to be the word you need. Like everyone picks out 466 00:25:38,920 --> 00:25:41,119 Speaker 1: a word and you hang it in an ornament that 467 00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,600 Speaker 1: goes on like a tree, and then you look at 468 00:25:43,600 --> 00:25:45,399 Speaker 1: it again the next year, and then you're always reminded 469 00:25:45,440 --> 00:25:48,040 Speaker 1: of this word. And there's different words like confidence and 470 00:25:48,119 --> 00:25:52,760 Speaker 1: self worth and intention and all these things, and can 471 00:25:52,800 --> 00:25:56,760 Speaker 1: you guess what my word was? These are random, right, 472 00:25:56,800 --> 00:25:58,159 Speaker 1: so you pick you don't know what it is, you 473 00:25:58,200 --> 00:26:02,679 Speaker 1: pick it out at its random thing. Love. That's what 474 00:26:02,720 --> 00:26:07,000 Speaker 1: we've been talking about. This humility. Oh it's humility. Yeah, 475 00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 1: it's so, it's humility. So she picked it out and 476 00:26:09,880 --> 00:26:11,480 Speaker 1: you read it in front of life. There's like twenty 477 00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:15,160 Speaker 1: of her family that I was like, humility. They're all like, yes, 478 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,439 Speaker 1: you need that, It's like no, but I was like, 479 00:26:19,119 --> 00:26:20,560 Speaker 1: I was like, I feel like I'm pretty humble, but 480 00:26:20,800 --> 00:26:23,480 Speaker 1: any funny just said that, like when you're saying you're humble, 481 00:26:23,560 --> 00:26:25,280 Speaker 1: you need more of it. And I think the thing 482 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:28,560 Speaker 1: is it's always a great reminder whether you're super humble 483 00:26:28,760 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 1: or not, it's a great reminder because life will bring 484 00:26:33,119 --> 00:26:36,560 Speaker 1: things to humble you if you do not consistently stay 485 00:26:36,680 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: humble in your life. There's injury, sickness, you know, attacks online, 486 00:26:43,160 --> 00:26:45,639 Speaker 1: or controversy or whatever might come up in the world, 487 00:26:46,320 --> 00:26:49,120 Speaker 1: and it's going to continue to come up. But as 488 00:26:49,160 --> 00:26:51,639 Speaker 1: long as you have the accountability and the right people 489 00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:54,960 Speaker 1: in your corner who call you out on your bs 490 00:26:55,160 --> 00:26:58,080 Speaker 1: and also celebrate you when you're doing good things as well, 491 00:26:58,160 --> 00:27:00,359 Speaker 1: I think that's important to have. I agree, I agree. 492 00:27:00,400 --> 00:27:05,720 Speaker 1: I think life is a journey designed to disconnect you 493 00:27:07,240 --> 00:27:10,160 Speaker 1: from your ego and dissolve your ego. If you think 494 00:27:10,200 --> 00:27:13,280 Speaker 1: about life as that is the journey, and so as 495 00:27:13,359 --> 00:27:17,119 Speaker 1: much as you willingly hand over of that journey, the 496 00:27:17,240 --> 00:27:19,440 Speaker 1: less it's being pulled away. And what I mean by 497 00:27:19,480 --> 00:27:23,679 Speaker 1: that is and it's it's what you said. When you 498 00:27:23,880 --> 00:27:28,840 Speaker 1: really think about any success you have or any impact 499 00:27:28,840 --> 00:27:34,359 Speaker 1: you've made, there is someone who has helped you get there, 500 00:27:34,480 --> 00:27:38,240 Speaker 1: directly or indirectly. So for you to say I am 501 00:27:38,359 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: self made, it isn't completely true because there was someone 502 00:27:44,480 --> 00:27:48,560 Speaker 1: indirectly or directly that helped you get there. So if 503 00:27:48,600 --> 00:27:52,040 Speaker 1: I say that, you know, people appreciate how I communicate 504 00:27:52,080 --> 00:27:54,879 Speaker 1: ideas today or certain ideas, I have to thank my 505 00:27:55,000 --> 00:27:58,920 Speaker 1: monk teachers who taught me that wisdom. Or if someone says, 506 00:27:59,160 --> 00:28:01,720 Speaker 1: hey Jay, let you really resilient or you've broken through 507 00:28:01,720 --> 00:28:04,240 Speaker 1: a lot of challenges, but then you have to respect 508 00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,480 Speaker 1: the people that tried to pull you down, and so 509 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:09,760 Speaker 1: it gave me the opportunity to overcome adversity exactly. And 510 00:28:09,840 --> 00:28:13,080 Speaker 1: so either way, there have been people who have helped 511 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,800 Speaker 1: you get to where you are, and so you can't 512 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:18,720 Speaker 1: claim the ego of I did this all myself. And 513 00:28:18,760 --> 00:28:22,520 Speaker 1: I think there's also something to be said for humility 514 00:28:23,040 --> 00:28:28,880 Speaker 1: and receiving acknowledgment from others and to yourself, yeah, and 515 00:28:29,040 --> 00:28:35,160 Speaker 1: celebrating what you've also created. I love the acceptance award 516 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:40,160 Speaker 1: of Snoop Dogg where he says something like, you know, 517 00:28:40,400 --> 00:28:44,240 Speaker 1: and I want to thank me for all the late nights, 518 00:28:44,280 --> 00:28:46,680 Speaker 1: all the early mornings, all the hard work, and I 519 00:28:46,720 --> 00:28:49,720 Speaker 1: thank me for never giving up on me. And I 520 00:28:49,760 --> 00:28:54,680 Speaker 1: think there is this over humility sometimes too, where people 521 00:28:55,120 --> 00:28:56,920 Speaker 1: are like, well, I'll be like, hey Jay, it was 522 00:28:56,920 --> 00:28:59,520 Speaker 1: so amazing what you did, and when people say it 523 00:28:59,560 --> 00:29:01,240 Speaker 1: was nothing I did. It wasn't me, you know, I 524 00:29:01,280 --> 00:29:04,960 Speaker 1: get to praise everyone else. I think there's a a 525 00:29:05,120 --> 00:29:09,560 Speaker 1: spiritual way to receive, yes, accomplishments and be humble in 526 00:29:09,600 --> 00:29:13,120 Speaker 1: your thank you, graceful in your thank you. Receive it 527 00:29:13,200 --> 00:29:16,120 Speaker 1: as well, because you are showing up in a big way, 528 00:29:17,120 --> 00:29:23,560 Speaker 1: you can be humble and also gracious in your confidence. Yes, 529 00:29:23,720 --> 00:29:26,760 Speaker 1: I think that's a great, great point, and I completely 530 00:29:26,760 --> 00:29:28,840 Speaker 1: agree with you. I don't think it's again, it's never 531 00:29:28,880 --> 00:29:31,880 Speaker 1: either all. I think that's the point that whenever anyone 532 00:29:31,920 --> 00:29:33,480 Speaker 1: tries to make it is like should it be humble 533 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:36,480 Speaker 1: or should it be confident? It's like be both? Should 534 00:29:36,520 --> 00:29:39,320 Speaker 1: I be successful or should it be spiritually? Be both? Like? 535 00:29:39,400 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: You can be both like, and we need to be 536 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:45,800 Speaker 1: both because sometimes you are going to need to. I agree. Like, 537 00:29:45,800 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 1: when when you reject praise what happened or genuine acknowledgement, 538 00:29:51,160 --> 00:29:54,160 Speaker 1: what ends up happening is you lose the opportunity for 539 00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:58,120 Speaker 1: someone else to express gratitude, to give, to give, you 540 00:29:58,600 --> 00:30:02,160 Speaker 1: block that ability for them to get You're robbing someone's gift. Yes, 541 00:30:02,760 --> 00:30:05,440 Speaker 1: and that's a no, no no. We'll talk about a 542 00:30:05,480 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 1: whole nother session on the law of attraction and the hustle. Yes, 543 00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:12,560 Speaker 1: but there's something to be you know. And people that 544 00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 1: make money know how to receive because they receive money 545 00:30:17,120 --> 00:30:19,880 Speaker 1: and there's a flow also, there's a flow to it. 546 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:23,240 Speaker 1: They the ones who are really good, don't hoard it, right, 547 00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:25,080 Speaker 1: They let it in and they let it out. It's 548 00:30:25,080 --> 00:30:27,640 Speaker 1: like a cycle. And they're investing it and they're spending 549 00:30:27,640 --> 00:30:31,560 Speaker 1: on people and they're building things. And they don't say, no, 550 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:33,600 Speaker 1: I'm not ready for money, don't give it to me 551 00:30:33,680 --> 00:30:36,000 Speaker 1: right now. It's the same thing, like you don't want 552 00:30:36,040 --> 00:30:39,320 Speaker 1: to block someone's acknowledgement or praise or opportunities and say 553 00:30:39,360 --> 00:30:41,800 Speaker 1: I'm not ready for it. Yeah, like, take it in, 554 00:30:41,920 --> 00:30:45,360 Speaker 1: receive it, be graceful, and you can also be humble 555 00:30:45,400 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 1: at the same time. Yeah, use it as fuel. Don't 556 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: let it go to you ahead, right right, But you 557 00:30:49,960 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 1: use it as fuel. So if someone gives you praise, 558 00:30:51,880 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: you go, oh, thank you so much. That's amazing. Now 559 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,920 Speaker 1: I'm going to use that to work harder. Yeah, right, 560 00:30:56,960 --> 00:30:58,520 Speaker 1: But you're not just using it to go Okay, it's 561 00:30:58,520 --> 00:30:59,880 Speaker 1: going through my head now I'm going to feel that 562 00:31:00,320 --> 00:31:02,920 Speaker 1: you're using as fuel and so and I think that's 563 00:31:02,920 --> 00:31:06,600 Speaker 1: why it's everyone needs someone accountable to them. Yeah, whether 564 00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,080 Speaker 1: that's your partner, I know, Roddy, is that for you? Probably? 565 00:31:09,240 --> 00:31:12,200 Speaker 1: Martha's that way for me where she will celebrate me, 566 00:31:12,760 --> 00:31:16,600 Speaker 1: but she also just gives me great feedback if I'm 567 00:31:16,680 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: if she thinks I'm being you know, over the top 568 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,960 Speaker 1: on something, which I never try to be. But yeah, 569 00:31:21,000 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 1: it's just even just her, just her being there as 570 00:31:23,520 --> 00:31:26,120 Speaker 1: a reminder to stay humble. Yeah, you know, even if 571 00:31:26,160 --> 00:31:28,800 Speaker 1: she doesn't have to say anything, it's just like, Okay, 572 00:31:28,800 --> 00:31:32,160 Speaker 1: I don't need to be boasting anything. And having someone 573 00:31:32,280 --> 00:31:36,120 Speaker 1: that you are inspired by in your life that can 574 00:31:36,160 --> 00:31:39,120 Speaker 1: be that accountability is so key. I think having that community, 575 00:31:39,280 --> 00:31:41,560 Speaker 1: not everyone that just says you're incredible all the time, 576 00:31:42,320 --> 00:31:48,360 Speaker 1: but someone who keeps you grounded and also supports your growth. Yeah. Yeah, 577 00:31:48,560 --> 00:31:52,200 Speaker 1: for me. The interesting thing going back to our original 578 00:31:52,280 --> 00:31:55,880 Speaker 1: question is money and spirituality. Yeah, like, and going back 579 00:31:55,880 --> 00:31:59,880 Speaker 1: to in context of this is if you're proud of 580 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:05,240 Speaker 1: something that can be taken away, it will always leave 581 00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,719 Speaker 1: you empty. So I mean proud of your money, correct, 582 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:11,240 Speaker 1: if that's all you're proud of of what you've done, 583 00:32:11,680 --> 00:32:16,120 Speaker 1: and ultimately, whether you die with it or you lose 584 00:32:16,160 --> 00:32:19,440 Speaker 1: it before you die, it is going to go somewhere else. 585 00:32:19,800 --> 00:32:22,400 Speaker 1: It's going to be transferred, even if that's to your 586 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:25,720 Speaker 1: children or to anyone else. Then that can be a 587 00:32:25,840 --> 00:32:28,480 Speaker 1: very scary place to live. It can be a fearful 588 00:32:28,520 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: place to live. But you can never lose the impact 589 00:32:30,640 --> 00:32:32,800 Speaker 1: you've made on people totally like that, you know. And 590 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:36,160 Speaker 1: I think that's what I've noticed, is that purpose is 591 00:32:36,160 --> 00:32:39,040 Speaker 1: the only thing that keeps giving to you because it's 592 00:32:39,080 --> 00:32:42,200 Speaker 1: such a like it's it's the only thing that can 593 00:32:42,240 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: give to you without needing anything else. And here's something 594 00:32:46,000 --> 00:32:48,640 Speaker 1: else that I'm thinking about. Please, there are a few 595 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:51,360 Speaker 1: people that I know, and I think you know as well, 596 00:32:51,960 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 1: who have made a lot of money, but they still 597 00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,520 Speaker 1: don't have that fulfillment inside or remember their relationships are 598 00:32:58,560 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 1: off or their health is off. But there are others 599 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,440 Speaker 1: who have made a lot of money and they are 600 00:33:03,480 --> 00:33:07,400 Speaker 1: so fulfilled with so much joy because it's purposeful money. 601 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,480 Speaker 1: It's money made with a mission in mind. And I 602 00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:12,000 Speaker 1: think that's what we need to be thinking about on 603 00:33:12,040 --> 00:33:14,520 Speaker 1: our journeys, is the money we're making. And I think 604 00:33:15,880 --> 00:33:18,480 Speaker 1: money is great to have. It helps solve a lot 605 00:33:18,520 --> 00:33:21,000 Speaker 1: of problems in our lives. But it doesn't solve the 606 00:33:21,040 --> 00:33:23,640 Speaker 1: problem of fulfillment. Yes, and it doesn't solve the problem 607 00:33:23,720 --> 00:33:27,600 Speaker 1: of inner peace. It might solve some peace, it might 608 00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:30,320 Speaker 1: be able to help pay for challenges to overcome, but 609 00:33:30,360 --> 00:33:34,880 Speaker 1: it doesn't bring us ultimate inner peace by itself. Correct 610 00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: unless we figure out purpose and mission as well. Yes, 611 00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:45,160 Speaker 1: money gives financial security, yes, and financial stability and financial safety, 612 00:33:45,440 --> 00:33:51,080 Speaker 1: which are all very important things. But financial stability does 613 00:33:51,160 --> 00:33:56,240 Speaker 1: not equate to mental peace. Right. Like, we know people 614 00:33:56,680 --> 00:34:02,520 Speaker 1: financial security, but they are not mentally peaceful. They're emotionally unstable, correct, 615 00:34:02,600 --> 00:34:06,760 Speaker 1: because those two things don't correlate. Same with emotional stability 616 00:34:07,240 --> 00:34:10,160 Speaker 1: does not lead to financial security. Right. I know people 617 00:34:10,160 --> 00:34:13,840 Speaker 1: who are really emotionally together, but they may not have 618 00:34:13,880 --> 00:34:16,480 Speaker 1: figured out how to organize their business with their life 619 00:34:16,840 --> 00:34:20,160 Speaker 1: to facilitate that which I was in that bucket for 620 00:34:20,200 --> 00:34:23,640 Speaker 1: a long time in my life, and so we've got 621 00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:26,759 Speaker 1: to start seeing them. It's just two different pursuits. If 622 00:34:26,760 --> 00:34:29,640 Speaker 1: I buy a ticket to LA I'm not going to 623 00:34:29,680 --> 00:34:31,799 Speaker 1: get to New York. And if I buy a New 624 00:34:31,880 --> 00:34:33,840 Speaker 1: York I'm not going to get there. You've got to 625 00:34:33,960 --> 00:34:36,759 Speaker 1: pay for that ticket that you want, and they're two 626 00:34:36,800 --> 00:34:43,200 Speaker 1: different things. An emotional regulation and emotional peace and making 627 00:34:43,280 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: money are two different skill sets, yes, and you have 628 00:34:46,320 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: to you have to study and practice the art of 629 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:56,000 Speaker 1: emotional regulation, of emotional peace, of inner peace. It has 630 00:34:56,080 --> 00:34:58,839 Speaker 1: taken me decades to get to a place where I 631 00:34:58,880 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: feel inside right. And I know you you went off 632 00:35:03,560 --> 00:35:05,879 Speaker 1: to go on this journey when you were twenty one, 633 00:35:05,960 --> 00:35:09,040 Speaker 1: twenty two or something because you didn't feel that early 634 00:35:09,080 --> 00:35:10,719 Speaker 1: on in your life, and you were inspired by the 635 00:35:10,760 --> 00:35:13,200 Speaker 1: monks that you met who came and taught and you're like, 636 00:35:13,239 --> 00:35:15,160 Speaker 1: I want to go learn this and have this in 637 00:35:15,239 --> 00:35:18,440 Speaker 1: my life. So I think it's two separate journeys. It's learning. 638 00:35:18,480 --> 00:35:21,120 Speaker 1: And some people make money naturally and it comes easier 639 00:35:21,120 --> 00:35:24,520 Speaker 1: to them, and other people are just peaceful, joyful people naturally. 640 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 1: I would say, Roddy's like one of these just peaceful, 641 00:35:26,920 --> 00:35:30,920 Speaker 1: joyful people naturally just in her nature, where other people 642 00:35:30,960 --> 00:35:34,120 Speaker 1: struggle and have more depressed thoughts and they're more stressed out. 643 00:35:34,719 --> 00:35:38,040 Speaker 1: And so it's a each r a practice, and they 644 00:35:38,040 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 1: can both be very challenging, but so worthwhile pursuing because 645 00:35:42,600 --> 00:35:47,520 Speaker 1: when you master both, it gives you even more peace. Yeah. Yeah, 646 00:35:47,880 --> 00:35:52,520 Speaker 1: I mean I have friends that make you know, I 647 00:35:52,840 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 1: have friends that work their job, make their money, and 648 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,480 Speaker 1: then spend all their evenings and weekends with their family, 649 00:35:58,760 --> 00:36:01,560 Speaker 1: and they're really happy because they know what their purpose is. 650 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,959 Speaker 1: And then I have friends that have all the money 651 00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:06,319 Speaker 1: in the world that are unhappy. But then I all 652 00:36:06,360 --> 00:36:08,440 Speaker 1: said the opposite, where I have friends who are doing 653 00:36:08,440 --> 00:36:11,560 Speaker 1: their ninety five job and spending time every day and 654 00:36:11,600 --> 00:36:13,719 Speaker 1: they have time, but they're not happy for stress. Yeah, 655 00:36:13,719 --> 00:36:15,400 Speaker 1: and then I have friends that are leaving their purpose 656 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,160 Speaker 1: making out somebody that are happy. And so we need 657 00:36:17,200 --> 00:36:21,319 Speaker 1: to stop equating money and happiness in the same conversation, 658 00:36:21,400 --> 00:36:24,719 Speaker 1: or money and success. They just provide different things. And 659 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:28,400 Speaker 1: like you beautifully said, they are different skills and we 660 00:36:28,440 --> 00:36:31,879 Speaker 1: have to decide. Each one has to decide what type 661 00:36:31,920 --> 00:36:34,600 Speaker 1: of life we want to lead. And I think both 662 00:36:34,800 --> 00:36:37,720 Speaker 1: are I don't know, you'd tell me both are equally 663 00:36:37,760 --> 00:36:39,960 Speaker 1: as important to learn at the same time, because if 664 00:36:40,000 --> 00:36:42,680 Speaker 1: you're putting your energy on making money, but then you 665 00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:44,840 Speaker 1: can't sleep at night because you're emotionally stressed and you 666 00:36:44,920 --> 00:36:47,239 Speaker 1: have no peace. But you figure out the money thing, 667 00:36:47,280 --> 00:36:48,839 Speaker 1: your health is going to go to crap and your 668 00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:51,239 Speaker 1: relationships are going to go to crap. If you're just 669 00:36:51,640 --> 00:36:53,440 Speaker 1: zend out all day and you don't spend time on 670 00:36:53,560 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: figuring out the money side, then you're broke, you know, 671 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:00,279 Speaker 1: and there becomes some stress around not having things to 672 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:03,640 Speaker 1: buy and pay for and going month a month that 673 00:37:03,800 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: has an element of stress. So they're both so important 674 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:11,239 Speaker 1: to be working on together, I think correct. I'm a 675 00:37:11,280 --> 00:37:14,960 Speaker 1: big believer that emotional regulation is the key in general 676 00:37:15,239 --> 00:37:18,839 Speaker 1: because it just makes you less reactive in all life situations. 677 00:37:20,080 --> 00:37:23,040 Speaker 1: But finding a way to make money within a meaningful 678 00:37:23,120 --> 00:37:28,040 Speaker 1: pursuit is so fulfilling as well. Yeah, it doesn't feel 679 00:37:28,040 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 1: like work when you're doing something meaningful and making your 680 00:37:31,520 --> 00:37:34,759 Speaker 1: money around it. Yeah, And if you can't do that yet, 681 00:37:34,920 --> 00:37:37,400 Speaker 1: I think that's one of the biggest issues too, is 682 00:37:37,440 --> 00:37:41,080 Speaker 1: that doing a job just because it pays the bills 683 00:37:41,400 --> 00:37:44,160 Speaker 1: and takes care of what you need and then having 684 00:37:44,280 --> 00:37:47,319 Speaker 1: time to figure out your passions and what else you 685 00:37:47,360 --> 00:37:50,040 Speaker 1: want to do, that's a beautiful place to start. That's 686 00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:52,040 Speaker 1: where I started. I think that's probably where you start too. 687 00:37:52,120 --> 00:37:54,360 Speaker 1: It's like you start with just a base. And I 688 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:58,760 Speaker 1: think too many people hate on their current life because 689 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,400 Speaker 1: they want this passion life. But hating on your current 690 00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,520 Speaker 1: life is just training yourself to hate on your future life. 691 00:38:06,160 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 1: And I think we don't recognize that you'll never be 692 00:38:08,120 --> 00:38:10,839 Speaker 1: happy where you're at. Yeah, and I'm not saying you 693 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:12,600 Speaker 1: you're gonna love like I would say. I've done so 694 00:38:12,600 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: many jobs in my life that I honestly did not love, 695 00:38:15,760 --> 00:38:18,440 Speaker 1: but I choose. And I did everything from stacking shelves 696 00:38:18,480 --> 00:38:22,480 Speaker 1: at grocery stores to working in retail to delivering newspapers. 697 00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:24,640 Speaker 1: I calculated the other day, I've been working now for 698 00:38:24,640 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 1: twenty years because I started working when I was fourteen 699 00:38:27,000 --> 00:38:30,000 Speaker 1: thirty four now, so we're working for twenty years and 700 00:38:30,040 --> 00:38:33,319 Speaker 1: I've done I would say that up until six years ago, 701 00:38:34,200 --> 00:38:36,560 Speaker 1: most of the jobs I did I didn't want to do. 702 00:38:37,239 --> 00:38:41,200 Speaker 1: But all of them I learned to take a skill 703 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,759 Speaker 1: that I used today. And so now when I look back, 704 00:38:44,800 --> 00:38:47,719 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh, well, being a delivery boy told me 705 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,319 Speaker 1: discipline because I had to do all the streets in 706 00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:56,320 Speaker 1: my area without any reciprocation, in the rain and lugging 707 00:38:56,320 --> 00:38:59,480 Speaker 1: around this like, you know, delivering news thing, which it 708 00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,399 Speaker 1: didn't make me cool. I missed out and hanging out 709 00:39:01,400 --> 00:39:03,880 Speaker 1: with friends. What everybody taught me discipline, And I think 710 00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:05,680 Speaker 1: it's you know, I had a lot of those jobs 711 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:07,480 Speaker 1: as well, where I was a bouncer on the weekends 712 00:39:07,480 --> 00:39:11,160 Speaker 1: at a nightclub the weekest, so I was a truck 713 00:39:11,239 --> 00:39:14,000 Speaker 1: driver during the day for I only did this for 714 00:39:14,080 --> 00:39:15,279 Speaker 1: three and a half months and I was like, I 715 00:39:15,320 --> 00:39:18,480 Speaker 1: can't do this anymore. Truck driver for six hours a day. 716 00:39:18,800 --> 00:39:21,719 Speaker 1: I would drive a massive U haul, kind of the 717 00:39:21,719 --> 00:39:24,600 Speaker 1: biggest truck before you had to get a special license 718 00:39:24,640 --> 00:39:27,320 Speaker 1: for a truck, so I think, imagine that the biggest 719 00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:30,760 Speaker 1: U haul. And I was driving for NAPA Auto Parts, 720 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:33,560 Speaker 1: which is like a car manufacturer. And I would drive 721 00:39:33,920 --> 00:39:37,200 Speaker 1: two and a half hours from Columbus to Cincinnati, Ohio, 722 00:39:37,640 --> 00:39:39,359 Speaker 1: and two and a half hours back every day and 723 00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:42,680 Speaker 1: transfer these autoparts from one truck to another and bring 724 00:39:42,800 --> 00:39:46,120 Speaker 1: others back up to Columbus. And the truck only went 725 00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,840 Speaker 1: fifty five miles an hour all the way the pedals 726 00:39:48,880 --> 00:39:51,280 Speaker 1: of metal, and so I was just in the slow lane. 727 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,359 Speaker 1: This was before like really cell phones and all these 728 00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:57,319 Speaker 1: different things. And I would do that during the day, 729 00:39:57,360 --> 00:39:59,080 Speaker 1: and I would do the bouncing on the weekend to 730 00:39:59,120 --> 00:40:01,880 Speaker 1: make some money. And I remember thinking like this is 731 00:40:01,920 --> 00:40:03,919 Speaker 1: not for me, this is not what I was born 732 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 1: to do. Yeah, but I think in those situations, just 733 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 1: like you had in your situations, it's figuring out how 734 00:40:09,800 --> 00:40:13,879 Speaker 1: to be purpose in the thing you're doing, be joy, 735 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 1: be fun in those moments while you're thinking of like 736 00:40:18,160 --> 00:40:19,640 Speaker 1: the next thing to get out of or how to 737 00:40:19,680 --> 00:40:21,120 Speaker 1: get out of that into the next thing what you 738 00:40:21,239 --> 00:40:24,279 Speaker 1: want to be doing. And you know, have you ever 739 00:40:24,320 --> 00:40:26,239 Speaker 1: been to a restaurant where you have a waiter a 740 00:40:26,239 --> 00:40:30,000 Speaker 1: waitress that's just like full of light, full of joy. 741 00:40:30,360 --> 00:40:33,600 Speaker 1: They're so grateful, they bring a smile to your face, 742 00:40:34,040 --> 00:40:37,319 Speaker 1: They remember the order perfectly, They just like want to 743 00:40:37,320 --> 00:40:40,439 Speaker 1: make the experience incredible. Yeah, you always tell these stories 744 00:40:40,480 --> 00:40:42,719 Speaker 1: about getting them getting hired and then going on to 745 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:46,600 Speaker 1: some other career because they brought the joy, They brought 746 00:40:46,680 --> 00:40:50,000 Speaker 1: purpose to their career, to their job which maybe they 747 00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:52,640 Speaker 1: didn't really want to be at ye, but that's how 748 00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:55,040 Speaker 1: you get to the next place. It's by bringing that 749 00:40:55,160 --> 00:40:58,880 Speaker 1: energy to the thing you don't enjoy and being purposeful. Anyways, 750 00:40:59,160 --> 00:41:02,120 Speaker 1: I think if we could start doing that, you're gonna 751 00:41:02,120 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 1: be a magnet for opportunities to finding your purpose. I 752 00:41:06,080 --> 00:41:08,279 Speaker 1: love that there was we were just in Rwanda and 753 00:41:08,360 --> 00:41:11,360 Speaker 1: there was a I don't drink alcohol, but I was 754 00:41:11,400 --> 00:41:13,680 Speaker 1: with a group of people who were and so there 755 00:41:13,760 --> 00:41:16,440 Speaker 1: was a somalier who was explaining the wine expert was 756 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:18,040 Speaker 1: like telling everyone what's in the wine and all that 757 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:20,440 Speaker 1: kind of stuff, and the person I was weird and 758 00:41:20,560 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 1: encouraged him to he was he was from Africa. And 759 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:27,240 Speaker 1: the person who was leading the retreat asked the person 760 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:31,280 Speaker 1: to explain their journey to how they became a somalier 761 00:41:31,280 --> 00:41:33,799 Speaker 1: at this beautiful hotel that we were at, and he 762 00:41:33,840 --> 00:41:36,200 Speaker 1: sat down and he told us his story and it's 763 00:41:36,239 --> 00:41:39,160 Speaker 1: exactly what you said. Yeah, literally cool. So he was 764 00:41:39,200 --> 00:41:41,920 Speaker 1: saying that he worked at a restaurant. He was waiting 765 00:41:42,440 --> 00:41:46,120 Speaker 1: and then he was asked one night to like choose 766 00:41:46,120 --> 00:41:48,680 Speaker 1: a bottle of wine for a table, and so he 767 00:41:48,800 --> 00:41:51,040 Speaker 1: chose a bottle of wine for that table, gave advice, 768 00:41:51,120 --> 00:41:52,920 Speaker 1: and he was really good at it because he'd been 769 00:41:52,920 --> 00:41:56,839 Speaker 1: doing his YouTube research and learning on the side. And 770 00:41:56,960 --> 00:41:59,879 Speaker 1: he said that when he gave it to this person 771 00:42:00,000 --> 00:42:02,279 Speaker 1: at the table, they asked him why this wine, why 772 00:42:02,320 --> 00:42:04,319 Speaker 1: not the other one, Like they were really quizzing him, 773 00:42:04,760 --> 00:42:07,359 Speaker 1: and because he'd done his research, he knew what to say. 774 00:42:07,400 --> 00:42:09,799 Speaker 1: He said that at the end of the meal, that 775 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,400 Speaker 1: person who was sitting at the table, gave him a 776 00:42:12,440 --> 00:42:15,680 Speaker 1: car so cool, and when he looked into the next day, 777 00:42:16,160 --> 00:42:20,080 Speaker 1: that was the owner of the brand of wine that 778 00:42:20,120 --> 00:42:24,280 Speaker 1: he gave. No way, that is cool and that person deceptive. 779 00:42:24,280 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: If you want to train to be somewhile, then you know, 780 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,680 Speaker 1: we'll put you into training school. Everything that's cool and 781 00:42:28,719 --> 00:42:31,239 Speaker 1: it's amazing, Like you know, he was so beaming when 782 00:42:31,239 --> 00:42:33,520 Speaker 1: he's telling the story. He's so happy doing it. And 783 00:42:33,600 --> 00:42:35,640 Speaker 1: for him it was a big change because he was 784 00:42:35,680 --> 00:42:38,200 Speaker 1: saying that the family he grew up in would have 785 00:42:38,280 --> 00:42:41,880 Speaker 1: not been happy with him working in alcohol, but it 786 00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 1: was his passion. It was what drew him there. Right, 787 00:42:44,320 --> 00:42:46,319 Speaker 1: It's just those kind of stories that melt my heart. 788 00:42:46,360 --> 00:42:48,920 Speaker 1: But if he showed up stress that he was going 789 00:42:48,960 --> 00:42:51,319 Speaker 1: to a job that he didn't like and sank, I 790 00:42:51,360 --> 00:42:53,000 Speaker 1: really don't want to be here. I'm not doing the 791 00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:55,160 Speaker 1: thing I want to do exactly, and let me just 792 00:42:55,480 --> 00:42:57,800 Speaker 1: get through the night, let me do the bare minimum, 793 00:42:57,960 --> 00:43:00,120 Speaker 1: let me show up and just get my check and 794 00:43:00,200 --> 00:43:03,239 Speaker 1: go back. If we go through life in those moments 795 00:43:03,280 --> 00:43:06,400 Speaker 1: where we don't want to be doing something, nothing good 796 00:43:06,520 --> 00:43:09,080 Speaker 1: is going to happen for us. We're not going to 797 00:43:09,080 --> 00:43:14,279 Speaker 1: create an energy that attracts financial abundance. And that's not 798 00:43:14,320 --> 00:43:18,840 Speaker 1: a spiritual practice. Showing up being kind of half lazy, 799 00:43:19,040 --> 00:43:21,840 Speaker 1: half disinterested in just going through the motions, that's not 800 00:43:21,880 --> 00:43:25,839 Speaker 1: a spiritual practice either. A spiritual practice from my perspective, 801 00:43:26,040 --> 00:43:30,080 Speaker 1: is being present in a moment and giving your fullest joy, 802 00:43:30,320 --> 00:43:33,280 Speaker 1: giving your light, giving your heart to the moment. Yes, 803 00:43:33,480 --> 00:43:35,920 Speaker 1: that's a spiritual practice. I'm not saying you're gonna be 804 00:43:35,960 --> 00:43:38,000 Speaker 1: able to have the energy to do that every moment 805 00:43:38,000 --> 00:43:40,200 Speaker 1: of every day, but it's doing your best to get 806 00:43:40,239 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: back to the moment and say, how can I be 807 00:43:42,200 --> 00:43:44,839 Speaker 1: of service to this moment? How can I use my light? 808 00:43:45,120 --> 00:43:47,560 Speaker 1: How can I use my gift whatever that is in 809 00:43:47,640 --> 00:43:51,080 Speaker 1: this moment to serve absolutely? What would you say is yeah, 810 00:43:51,600 --> 00:43:53,520 Speaker 1: what would you say as a spiritual practice for you 811 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:55,279 Speaker 1: kind of day to day? Yeah? I think. I think 812 00:43:55,320 --> 00:43:59,240 Speaker 1: the spiritual practice is how can I truly treat everyone 813 00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: I meet as an equal, as a human? How do 814 00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:08,120 Speaker 1: I see them through equal vision? How do I not 815 00:44:08,480 --> 00:44:11,480 Speaker 1: talk down to someone or talk up to someone? How 816 00:44:11,480 --> 00:44:15,960 Speaker 1: do I truly allow each person to space to express 817 00:44:16,040 --> 00:44:20,000 Speaker 1: themselves and express myself to connect with them? And if 818 00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:22,160 Speaker 1: I'm going to a place of work. If I'm going 819 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:24,840 Speaker 1: to a place of wherever I am, how can I 820 00:44:24,880 --> 00:44:29,160 Speaker 1: show up believing that my positive energy and what I 821 00:44:29,200 --> 00:44:32,160 Speaker 1: put out in the world will some way come back 822 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,919 Speaker 1: to me. Yeah, it's hard to believe that, but it will. 823 00:44:35,960 --> 00:44:39,080 Speaker 1: I've seen sometimes, you know, it's like an investment, Like 824 00:44:39,120 --> 00:44:41,520 Speaker 1: sometimes you're mak an investment and you don't see the 825 00:44:41,560 --> 00:44:45,200 Speaker 1: benefits till twenty years later, but you're so grateful for 826 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:48,040 Speaker 1: it twenty years later because it almost surprises you. And 827 00:44:48,120 --> 00:44:51,000 Speaker 1: that's how the world works. Like there's very few things 828 00:44:51,040 --> 00:44:54,200 Speaker 1: that are instant in life. I mean, I would say 829 00:44:54,239 --> 00:44:57,600 Speaker 1: that you probably feel you're living off of habits and 830 00:44:57,640 --> 00:45:01,480 Speaker 1: disciplines you built totally. It's not like it's not like 831 00:45:01,520 --> 00:45:04,280 Speaker 1: what you're winning in now is what you just did yesterday. 832 00:45:04,719 --> 00:45:07,080 Speaker 1: Like it's stuff that you like when you you know, 833 00:45:07,280 --> 00:45:10,359 Speaker 1: we're playing sport and developing as an athlete, like all 834 00:45:10,360 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: of those skill sets are useful today. Absolutely, even though 835 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:16,160 Speaker 1: you're not doing the same thing. Absolutely. Yeah, it's similar 836 00:45:16,200 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: to my athletic background, which you were an athlete as well, 837 00:45:18,800 --> 00:45:21,680 Speaker 1: but you're more trained. You were the athletes of the mind, right, 838 00:45:22,200 --> 00:45:25,240 Speaker 1: you were the spiritual athlete. You're getting up at four am, 839 00:45:25,239 --> 00:45:28,280 Speaker 1: sleeping on the ground, you know, just being of service 840 00:45:28,280 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: all day, learning, teaching, meditating, being with your monk community. 841 00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 1: And you had to go through adversity on a daily basis. Essentially, 842 00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,960 Speaker 1: you had to do uncomfortable things and be positive about it. 843 00:45:44,320 --> 00:45:46,640 Speaker 1: In football, when you're doing three of days, it is 844 00:45:46,719 --> 00:45:49,359 Speaker 1: not fun and one hundred five degree humidity and heat, 845 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,799 Speaker 1: showing up, putting pads on and getting smashed over and 846 00:45:52,840 --> 00:45:55,640 Speaker 1: over again for two hours at a time, three times 847 00:45:55,680 --> 00:45:58,960 Speaker 1: a day, it's not fun. Yeah, But the coaches ingraining 848 00:45:59,080 --> 00:46:03,200 Speaker 1: you added and how you show up for others and 849 00:46:03,600 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: your team and the team and if you are missing 850 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:09,160 Speaker 1: the play, you're letting the whole team down. And it's 851 00:46:09,160 --> 00:46:12,120 Speaker 1: how each individual shows up with a positive attitude makes 852 00:46:12,120 --> 00:46:17,160 Speaker 1: the entire mission of the team move forward in progress. Yeah. 853 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: But if you're stressed and overwhelmed and allowing the adversity 854 00:46:21,040 --> 00:46:23,600 Speaker 1: of the moment to hold you back, then the team's 855 00:46:23,600 --> 00:46:25,439 Speaker 1: going to be held back. Yeah. I think you did 856 00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:28,960 Speaker 1: that in the monk community by constantly being a service, 857 00:46:29,000 --> 00:46:31,719 Speaker 1: even if you're only getting two hours asleep and in 858 00:46:31,800 --> 00:46:35,279 Speaker 1: the heat all day serving, you know, just asking for 859 00:46:35,360 --> 00:46:39,920 Speaker 1: food and the same thing in life and you're using 860 00:46:39,920 --> 00:46:43,239 Speaker 1: that discipline now from ten fifteen years ago. Well, I 861 00:46:43,239 --> 00:46:46,120 Speaker 1: think what I see in you is that I didn't 862 00:46:46,160 --> 00:46:48,080 Speaker 1: know you when you were an athlete back then, but 863 00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:50,279 Speaker 1: I feel like the thing I know it's about you 864 00:46:50,360 --> 00:46:53,919 Speaker 1: is that you're always bringing the most amount of value 865 00:46:53,960 --> 00:46:56,239 Speaker 1: to everything you do. That's the goal. And whether I 866 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: was when I spoke to your master mind a few 867 00:46:58,160 --> 00:47:00,719 Speaker 1: years ago, I saw how much value you grow your community, 868 00:47:01,080 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: and I saw how my success all of them have 869 00:47:03,840 --> 00:47:07,320 Speaker 1: had and the journeys and careers they've had. And I 870 00:47:07,400 --> 00:47:08,880 Speaker 1: want to talk about this, and I think it'll be 871 00:47:09,000 --> 00:47:12,040 Speaker 1: useful for us to answer this together. I think one 872 00:47:12,080 --> 00:47:14,600 Speaker 1: of the biggest issues that people have. So let's say 873 00:47:14,600 --> 00:47:18,920 Speaker 1: first they recognize, as we both clarified that we realize 874 00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:22,000 Speaker 1: that money is an energy, that it's a resource. Money 875 00:47:22,080 --> 00:47:24,960 Speaker 1: is not good or bad. It's defined by how you 876 00:47:25,160 --> 00:47:27,480 Speaker 1: use it, and if your goal is to use money 877 00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:30,359 Speaker 1: for a higher purpose and for a mission, it can 878 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:33,200 Speaker 1: be a beautiful thing. You've established that. I think one 879 00:47:33,239 --> 00:47:35,680 Speaker 1: of the biggest things that people struggle with, and this 880 00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 1: is what I wanted us to talk about, is people 881 00:47:37,920 --> 00:47:42,799 Speaker 1: struggle with the idea of how do I charge for 882 00:47:42,920 --> 00:47:46,400 Speaker 1: what I'm worth. Where I feel uncomfortable to charge for 883 00:47:46,520 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: my services. I know coaches feel this way, I know 884 00:47:49,640 --> 00:47:51,640 Speaker 1: therapists feel this way. I know people are in the 885 00:47:51,760 --> 00:47:57,640 Speaker 1: service business feel difficult to feel like they're allowed to 886 00:47:57,680 --> 00:48:00,680 Speaker 1: feel comfortable to charge for their service. Is because it's 887 00:48:00,680 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: assumed that if you're doing good for the world, you 888 00:48:02,680 --> 00:48:05,480 Speaker 1: should be doing it for free. And so let's address 889 00:48:05,520 --> 00:48:07,200 Speaker 1: that mindset. Because I think a lot of people might 890 00:48:07,200 --> 00:48:09,680 Speaker 1: be watching right now going listen jam with you, but 891 00:48:09,719 --> 00:48:13,560 Speaker 1: I just feel really unconfident about saying this is how 892 00:48:13,640 --> 00:48:16,560 Speaker 1: much my services are worthy. And so I'll go first 893 00:48:16,560 --> 00:48:18,919 Speaker 1: because I bought it up. Yes, but I think it's 894 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:21,680 Speaker 1: the idea of Like the first thing I say to 895 00:48:21,719 --> 00:48:25,520 Speaker 1: people is we know this that when people are paid 896 00:48:25,560 --> 00:48:29,040 Speaker 1: for something, including when I pay for something, I take 897 00:48:29,080 --> 00:48:32,160 Speaker 1: it more seriously. I'm more likely to show up and 898 00:48:32,200 --> 00:48:35,399 Speaker 1: be my best, and I'm more likely to complete. A 899 00:48:35,440 --> 00:48:38,080 Speaker 1: great example of us is a personal trainer. Absolutely. The 900 00:48:38,120 --> 00:48:40,200 Speaker 1: reason I have that is because I know I've already 901 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:42,600 Speaker 1: paid for his time. I already know I've paid for 902 00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,399 Speaker 1: an hour, and if I cancel, I'm going to lose 903 00:48:45,440 --> 00:48:48,319 Speaker 1: that money. And if I show up and I'm not 904 00:48:48,440 --> 00:48:51,080 Speaker 1: full energy, then I'm not going to get that much 905 00:48:51,120 --> 00:48:54,759 Speaker 1: out of it. Right. If I haven't paid someone, I 906 00:48:54,920 --> 00:48:56,319 Speaker 1: may or may not go to the gym. If I 907 00:48:56,360 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 1: feel like it or not, I probably won't turn up. 908 00:48:59,080 --> 00:49:00,680 Speaker 1: If I turn up to them, I might just be 909 00:49:00,719 --> 00:49:02,480 Speaker 1: on my phone the whole time. By the way, if 910 00:49:02,480 --> 00:49:04,600 Speaker 1: you're going to gym, you probably paid membership too. So 911 00:49:05,000 --> 00:49:10,240 Speaker 1: the idea of the transaction of money forces a higher 912 00:49:10,280 --> 00:49:14,880 Speaker 1: commitment and energy from me included, yes, and from everyone absolutely, 913 00:49:14,920 --> 00:49:17,560 Speaker 1: and so of course it's all based on affordability and 914 00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:20,200 Speaker 1: privilege and access. Of course, like I'm not telling to 915 00:49:20,200 --> 00:49:21,640 Speaker 1: be able to pay more than they have, but the 916 00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: idea that when we exchange money for something, we value 917 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:29,280 Speaker 1: it more. And I think our friend Dean Graciosi says, 918 00:49:29,719 --> 00:49:32,239 Speaker 1: you pay attention to what you pay for, and the 919 00:49:32,360 --> 00:49:34,799 Speaker 1: more you pay for it, you pay more attention to 920 00:49:35,000 --> 00:49:37,359 Speaker 1: the thing that you've invested in or signed up on. 921 00:49:38,000 --> 00:49:39,839 Speaker 1: If you buy a house and you spend a lot 922 00:49:39,880 --> 00:49:41,319 Speaker 1: of money on that house, you're probably going to make 923 00:49:41,320 --> 00:49:43,040 Speaker 1: sure the house is in good order and you're going 924 00:49:43,120 --> 00:49:45,280 Speaker 1: to fix it up and you're going to treat it well. 925 00:49:45,320 --> 00:49:47,719 Speaker 1: You buy a new car, same thing. You're gonna not 926 00:49:47,840 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 1: trash it, at least not right away hopefully. But if 927 00:49:50,360 --> 00:49:52,040 Speaker 1: you buy a car for a few hundred bucks, you 928 00:49:52,040 --> 00:49:54,400 Speaker 1: may say, if it hits a wall or if this 929 00:49:54,880 --> 00:49:57,920 Speaker 1: is scratched, like, who cares because I didn't invest that 930 00:49:58,000 --> 00:49:59,600 Speaker 1: much in it. So we pay attention to what we 931 00:49:59,640 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 1: pay for are And I think you're doing a disservice 932 00:50:03,000 --> 00:50:07,160 Speaker 1: to yourself and you're creating a model to everyone around 933 00:50:07,200 --> 00:50:10,160 Speaker 1: you that you're not worth receiving of money if you're 934 00:50:10,200 --> 00:50:13,400 Speaker 1: not willing to charge or eventually charge more when you 935 00:50:13,400 --> 00:50:17,719 Speaker 1: can deliver more value for that. And I think it's 936 00:50:17,719 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 1: important to we'll probably talk about this more and another 937 00:50:21,600 --> 00:50:23,840 Speaker 1: session about you know, a law of attraction and the 938 00:50:23,880 --> 00:50:25,759 Speaker 1: hustle and grind and then things around that. But I 939 00:50:25,800 --> 00:50:31,400 Speaker 1: think when I think we should be constantly striving to 940 00:50:32,719 --> 00:50:35,640 Speaker 1: develop more skills, add more value, and then in that 941 00:50:35,680 --> 00:50:39,600 Speaker 1: process be willing to charge more. Yeah, otherwise we're staying stagnant. 942 00:50:39,640 --> 00:50:41,200 Speaker 1: And I think you just hit a nail on the head. 943 00:50:41,239 --> 00:50:45,800 Speaker 1: It's that you're charging for your skills that you've developed, 944 00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:48,920 Speaker 1: and you're not charging for the time. You're charging for 945 00:50:48,960 --> 00:50:51,680 Speaker 1: the time it to build those skills and the value 946 00:50:51,719 --> 00:50:54,960 Speaker 1: can deliver with the speed of a delivery hole. Correct, correct, 947 00:50:55,000 --> 00:50:56,879 Speaker 1: Because I think a lot of people feel like, oh, 948 00:50:56,920 --> 00:50:58,880 Speaker 1: I can't charge that much for an hour, or I 949 00:50:58,920 --> 00:51:02,319 Speaker 1: can't charge that much for X, Y or Z. But 950 00:51:02,360 --> 00:51:04,800 Speaker 1: it's like you're not charging for that hour. You're charging 951 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,560 Speaker 1: for all the hours that it took to build that exactly. 952 00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,600 Speaker 1: And I think a good example for my personal life 953 00:51:10,680 --> 00:51:13,680 Speaker 1: is I'm paying for a therapist slash coach right now. 954 00:51:13,719 --> 00:51:17,080 Speaker 1: That's I pay a kind of a lump sum for 955 00:51:17,120 --> 00:51:19,680 Speaker 1: six months for a certain amount of sessions. But if 956 00:51:19,680 --> 00:51:22,080 Speaker 1: I was to average the sessions out and call it 957 00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:25,640 Speaker 1: per session rate, it's around seven hundred bucks a session, 958 00:51:25,920 --> 00:51:27,520 Speaker 1: right for an hour and a half, which is probably 959 00:51:28,080 --> 00:51:31,640 Speaker 1: the highest amount of any therapist out there. Ye should 960 00:51:31,640 --> 00:51:33,480 Speaker 1: therapist maybe one hundred and fifty, maybe two hundred and 961 00:51:33,480 --> 00:51:36,000 Speaker 1: fifty on the high end, some of the celebrity therapists 962 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:39,359 Speaker 1: or five hundred dollars a session. So I'm paying above that, 963 00:51:40,160 --> 00:51:44,319 Speaker 1: and I'm paying it because I'm getting incredible results from 964 00:51:44,320 --> 00:51:49,279 Speaker 1: my inner piece, and it's worth it. It's worth it. 965 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: You was investing in your future, investing in my future forever, 966 00:51:53,480 --> 00:51:55,880 Speaker 1: and the skills that I'm developing that will allow me 967 00:51:56,000 --> 00:51:59,560 Speaker 1: to have greater peace in my intimacy, in my relationships, 968 00:51:59,560 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: greater my friendships, greater harmony in my business, and allow 969 00:52:05,000 --> 00:52:08,600 Speaker 1: me to soar financially and with my mission. So it's like, 970 00:52:09,200 --> 00:52:13,359 Speaker 1: it's all around a good investment, correct, even if it's 971 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:17,000 Speaker 1: a three times more than the average, right for me, 972 00:52:17,160 --> 00:52:20,040 Speaker 1: it's worth it. Yeah, yeah, And other people that may 973 00:52:20,080 --> 00:52:22,400 Speaker 1: not make sense based on where they're at, and I 974 00:52:22,480 --> 00:52:24,640 Speaker 1: get it, But there is an investment that will make 975 00:52:24,680 --> 00:52:27,200 Speaker 1: sense for you. And maybe it's not a hiring a 976 00:52:27,239 --> 00:52:30,360 Speaker 1: therapist or a coach, but it's going through a workshop 977 00:52:30,360 --> 00:52:33,080 Speaker 1: online that you pay something for, buying a book, buying 978 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,400 Speaker 1: a blood something else, listening to our podcast either one 979 00:52:36,440 --> 00:52:39,279 Speaker 1: of those. It's like, yeah, exactly. But you're investing time. Yeah, 980 00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:42,399 Speaker 1: you're time. You're investing time to learn something and then 981 00:52:42,440 --> 00:52:44,719 Speaker 1: investing in applying it and testing it. And I think 982 00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:47,239 Speaker 1: that's just as that's valuable as well, and I want 983 00:52:47,239 --> 00:52:50,200 Speaker 1: to address that. It is by the way I feel 984 00:52:50,600 --> 00:52:53,200 Speaker 1: awkward talking about money. We will feel awkward to talk 985 00:52:53,239 --> 00:52:56,280 Speaker 1: about money because we were told that it's a taboo 986 00:52:56,320 --> 00:52:59,600 Speaker 1: in society. Yeah, you never ask someone their wage, You 987 00:52:59,680 --> 00:53:01,719 Speaker 1: never asked them how much money they make. You don't 988 00:53:01,760 --> 00:53:04,880 Speaker 1: tell someone what your bonus was this year. So we've 989 00:53:04,960 --> 00:53:09,359 Speaker 1: created a taboo in society to talk about money, and 990 00:53:09,400 --> 00:53:12,680 Speaker 1: that's why most of us feel really uncomfortable, where we'd 991 00:53:12,760 --> 00:53:15,759 Speaker 1: rather not have that conversation. But the problem is then 992 00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:18,439 Speaker 1: we spend all of our mind thinking about money, because 993 00:53:18,440 --> 00:53:20,239 Speaker 1: then we're like, well, they didn't pay me enough, or 994 00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:21,920 Speaker 1: they don't value me, or I should have got a 995 00:53:21,920 --> 00:53:24,240 Speaker 1: bigger bonus, or I should have got a better promotion, 996 00:53:24,560 --> 00:53:27,640 Speaker 1: or my salary should be this. And so by you 997 00:53:27,760 --> 00:53:32,520 Speaker 1: pretending or not even pretending, by you feeling uncomfortable to 998 00:53:32,680 --> 00:53:36,360 Speaker 1: address money, you actually end up spending more time obsessed 999 00:53:36,400 --> 00:53:38,640 Speaker 1: with the lack of it. Yes, And I think that's 1000 00:53:38,680 --> 00:53:41,400 Speaker 1: the pain, that you're actually obsessing over the lack of 1001 00:53:41,440 --> 00:53:43,759 Speaker 1: money because you're scared of talking about it. And I 1002 00:53:43,760 --> 00:53:45,920 Speaker 1: know I've been there, Like I know what that feels like. 1003 00:53:46,320 --> 00:53:50,080 Speaker 1: And I think some things that people can think about 1004 00:53:50,120 --> 00:53:53,560 Speaker 1: as they leave this conversation is I'm so glad you 1005 00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:55,840 Speaker 1: said this, because I was probably going to forget this. 1006 00:53:56,719 --> 00:53:59,600 Speaker 1: A mentor of mine early on when I was broke, said, 1007 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:01,759 Speaker 1: it comes to you when you're ready for it, and 1008 00:54:01,800 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 1: I was like, I feel pretty ready to have some 1009 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:06,520 Speaker 1: money because I don't have any. I feel ready and 1010 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,719 Speaker 1: he's like, it'll come to you when you're ready for it. 1011 00:54:08,719 --> 00:54:11,600 Speaker 1: And I didn't understand it. When you're lacking, it doesn't 1012 00:54:11,600 --> 00:54:14,600 Speaker 1: make sense. But it understood it as money started to 1013 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:16,760 Speaker 1: come to me because I was like, I wasn't ready 1014 00:54:16,800 --> 00:54:20,160 Speaker 1: to manage the responsibility, the weight. I didn't have the 1015 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:23,719 Speaker 1: knowledge on how to receive money, how to manage it, 1016 00:54:23,760 --> 00:54:25,960 Speaker 1: how to pay off credit cards and debts, how to 1017 00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 1: automate things like I would have blown it because I 1018 00:54:28,560 --> 00:54:31,120 Speaker 1: didn't understand it enough. So what you said right there 1019 00:54:31,160 --> 00:54:35,600 Speaker 1: is so important that we need to have conscious conversations 1020 00:54:35,640 --> 00:54:41,040 Speaker 1: about money and be willing to be uncomfortable with your 1021 00:54:41,040 --> 00:54:43,680 Speaker 1: friends or family members that maybe you've never talked about 1022 00:54:43,719 --> 00:54:48,239 Speaker 1: money and start talking about it. I love normalizing the 1023 00:54:48,239 --> 00:54:51,359 Speaker 1: conversation so it's not scary, so it's not bad. So 1024 00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:53,520 Speaker 1: it's not this I don't know, I don't want to 1025 00:54:53,520 --> 00:54:55,400 Speaker 1: talk about it, it's scary. If you know these things. 1026 00:54:56,239 --> 00:54:59,560 Speaker 1: Letting go with the shame around money conversations and do 1027 00:54:59,600 --> 00:55:02,600 Speaker 1: it appropriate setting with the right people, but be willing 1028 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,920 Speaker 1: to have these conversations. You won't feel the pressure of 1029 00:55:05,960 --> 00:55:08,480 Speaker 1: it as much, and when it comes, it's not going 1030 00:55:08,520 --> 00:55:09,920 Speaker 1: to feel like you have to hold on to it 1031 00:55:09,960 --> 00:55:13,720 Speaker 1: as much, and you'll just be able to naturally flow 1032 00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:16,440 Speaker 1: in the world more with open conversations. So I think 1033 00:55:16,440 --> 00:55:18,799 Speaker 1: what you said there is so important we need to do. Yeah, 1034 00:55:18,840 --> 00:55:21,719 Speaker 1: And I think that the reason we feel uncomfortable is 1035 00:55:21,760 --> 00:55:24,040 Speaker 1: because we've never been trained, And the reason why we 1036 00:55:24,080 --> 00:55:27,719 Speaker 1: decided to do this is because we're trying to have 1037 00:55:27,760 --> 00:55:31,680 Speaker 1: the uncomfortable conversation so that hopefully all of you feel encouraged. 1038 00:55:31,719 --> 00:55:34,920 Speaker 1: I've always found our friend David Buck. Yes, he has 1039 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:38,000 Speaker 1: some really great stuff on Like I remember reading his 1040 00:55:38,040 --> 00:55:40,600 Speaker 1: stuff years before I met it about how much money 1041 00:55:40,600 --> 00:55:42,640 Speaker 1: to spend on rent and how much money does it 1042 00:55:42,760 --> 00:55:45,120 Speaker 1: save and how to do this like when you first 1043 00:55:45,160 --> 00:55:48,280 Speaker 1: have like an income from a job. And I found 1044 00:55:48,320 --> 00:55:50,600 Speaker 1: that so useful because no one in my life has 1045 00:55:50,680 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 1: ever talked to no one talked about it. So if 1046 00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:55,960 Speaker 1: you're scared of talking about money, if you're scared of 1047 00:55:55,960 --> 00:55:58,040 Speaker 1: figuring out how to charge, and by the way, if 1048 00:55:58,080 --> 00:56:00,760 Speaker 1: you're someone who in your heart goes jee, I feel 1049 00:56:00,760 --> 00:56:04,200 Speaker 1: like I'm somewhat taking advantage of someone when I ask 1050 00:56:04,280 --> 00:56:09,200 Speaker 1: them for money, bring more value, bring more value, over deliver, 1051 00:56:09,800 --> 00:56:12,399 Speaker 1: give your heart, and then you won't feel that way 1052 00:56:12,440 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: because you realize you're having a genuine impact on them. 1053 00:56:14,800 --> 00:56:18,160 Speaker 1: I realize when we launched some of our courses and programs, 1054 00:56:18,680 --> 00:56:22,400 Speaker 1: we studied how they improve people's lives, and we saw 1055 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,000 Speaker 1: that someone in our community has been part of Genius 1056 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:28,600 Speaker 1: for ninety days, their happiness goes up by and we 1057 00:56:28,680 --> 00:56:32,000 Speaker 1: were like, that's incredible, Like that's beautiful, right, And so 1058 00:56:32,400 --> 00:56:36,200 Speaker 1: when you start to measure impact, Yes, measure your impact. 1059 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,560 Speaker 1: Don't just create something and hope that it works. Measure 1060 00:56:39,600 --> 00:56:43,240 Speaker 1: your impact. You'll feel more confident. Really take the time 1061 00:56:43,280 --> 00:56:46,680 Speaker 1: to create an offering that genuinely improves people's lives. You'll 1062 00:56:46,719 --> 00:56:49,759 Speaker 1: be more confident, and then ultimately keep checking in with 1063 00:56:49,880 --> 00:56:53,239 Speaker 1: yourself absolutely to check am I truly delivering or not? Yeah. 1064 00:56:53,280 --> 00:56:55,320 Speaker 1: One of the things we do every Monday today is 1065 00:56:55,360 --> 00:56:58,560 Speaker 1: Monday our team Calls, is we talk about what are 1066 00:56:58,960 --> 00:57:01,200 Speaker 1: some of the impact we're aching on all the different 1067 00:57:01,200 --> 00:57:05,600 Speaker 1: programs and products and from the courses to the podcast, 1068 00:57:05,680 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 1: like what the testimonials of the week. We have a 1069 00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:12,320 Speaker 1: big spreadsheet with all the testimonals that come in different 1070 00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:14,279 Speaker 1: people on the team read out what they kind of 1071 00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,280 Speaker 1: have ownership over here the biggest testimonials of the week, 1072 00:57:17,640 --> 00:57:20,800 Speaker 1: and it constantly reminds us why we're doing what we're doing. 1073 00:57:21,240 --> 00:57:26,360 Speaker 1: So don't neglect hearing testimonials, hearing the impact you've made 1074 00:57:26,400 --> 00:57:29,320 Speaker 1: on your friends' lives, or if you have a freelance, 1075 00:57:29,360 --> 00:57:32,000 Speaker 1: gig or a career, how you're being of service with 1076 00:57:32,040 --> 00:57:35,040 Speaker 1: your talent and your skills. You are living you know, 1077 00:57:35,040 --> 00:57:38,240 Speaker 1: when you live in purpose, that is the fuel to 1078 00:57:38,360 --> 00:57:40,400 Speaker 1: keep going. You love it. I love it when people 1079 00:57:40,400 --> 00:57:42,640 Speaker 1: come up to us on the street and say, I'm 1080 00:57:42,640 --> 00:57:44,840 Speaker 1: listening right now this. I read your book. It helped 1081 00:57:44,840 --> 00:57:46,760 Speaker 1: me here two years ago. I found you and I 1082 00:57:46,840 --> 00:57:49,480 Speaker 1: got it into this incredible relationship. I got out of 1083 00:57:49,480 --> 00:57:52,080 Speaker 1: this challenging relationship or gott in shape because of you 1084 00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:56,400 Speaker 1: or what you shared. It's fuel for our purpose to 1085 00:57:56,560 --> 00:57:59,160 Speaker 1: have more energy and go you know, bigger at it. 1086 00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:04,800 Speaker 1: So be willing to receive that as well and start 1087 00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,160 Speaker 1: having these conversations. What else shall we leave people with 1088 00:58:07,320 --> 00:58:12,360 Speaker 1: as we wrap up episode one? I think my big 1089 00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:17,640 Speaker 1: takeaway from today's conversation is we all have to evaluate 1090 00:58:18,040 --> 00:58:21,800 Speaker 1: our relationship with money. Do you have a positive relationship 1091 00:58:22,400 --> 00:58:24,920 Speaker 1: do you have a negative relationship, Do you have a 1092 00:58:24,960 --> 00:58:29,080 Speaker 1: neutral or void relationship? Most of us don't realize that 1093 00:58:29,200 --> 00:58:32,640 Speaker 1: we all have a relationship with money. If you don't 1094 00:58:32,680 --> 00:58:37,080 Speaker 1: talk about money, that's like not talking to someone, right, 1095 00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:39,800 Speaker 1: That's what it is. If you don't talk about money, 1096 00:58:40,160 --> 00:58:43,400 Speaker 1: then your relationship is you don't communicate with that person. 1097 00:58:44,520 --> 00:58:47,080 Speaker 1: Then you can have negative communication, you have negative thoughts 1098 00:58:47,120 --> 00:58:49,960 Speaker 1: about that person, you have negative feelings towards that person, 1099 00:58:50,760 --> 00:58:54,280 Speaker 1: or you have positive feelings and healthy feelings. Figure out 1100 00:58:54,280 --> 00:58:57,240 Speaker 1: your relationship. And the quote or the wisdom that changed 1101 00:58:57,360 --> 00:59:00,720 Speaker 1: my relationship with money was this beautiful thought by Martin 1102 00:59:00,800 --> 00:59:04,520 Speaker 1: Luther King, which was that the people who love peace, 1103 00:59:05,240 --> 00:59:07,400 Speaker 1: and I believe I'm a person who loves peace, I 1104 00:59:07,400 --> 00:59:10,959 Speaker 1: believe you are. That the people who love peace need 1105 00:59:11,040 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 1: to learn to organize themselves as well as those who 1106 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:18,240 Speaker 1: love war. Absolutely, And what I realized was that the 1107 00:59:18,600 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 1: challenge with spirituality or positivity in the world was that 1108 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:32,920 Speaker 1: it was not organized enough. An organization requires finances, businesses, structure, operations, implementation, 1109 00:59:33,480 --> 00:59:35,600 Speaker 1: and so to me that was something that really made 1110 00:59:35,640 --> 00:59:38,120 Speaker 1: me realize that if I truly believe I want to 1111 00:59:38,440 --> 00:59:42,240 Speaker 1: positively improve the world, I have to think about money. 1112 00:59:42,400 --> 00:59:45,480 Speaker 1: It's not my goal, it's not my obsession, it's not 1113 00:59:45,520 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: my priority, but I can't ignore it because if I 1114 00:59:49,000 --> 00:59:51,560 Speaker 1: ignore it, it's going to negatively impact of There's another 1115 00:59:51,600 --> 00:59:54,720 Speaker 1: like viral or quote online that says it's better to 1116 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:57,520 Speaker 1: be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in 1117 00:59:57,560 --> 00:59:59,880 Speaker 1: a war, and I think it's we need to train 1118 01:00:00,080 --> 01:00:04,840 Speaker 1: ourselves to be prepared for the financial world, for the 1119 01:00:05,000 --> 01:00:07,640 Speaker 1: ups and downs of the financial world, for just the 1120 01:00:07,680 --> 01:00:10,680 Speaker 1: world in general that has a lot of ups and downs, 1121 01:00:10,760 --> 01:00:13,560 Speaker 1: and be prepared for all of it with a spiritual 1122 01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:16,760 Speaker 1: practice and a financial practice as well. I think that's 1123 01:00:16,800 --> 01:00:19,280 Speaker 1: the key so that you're not stressed when life comes 1124 01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:22,080 Speaker 1: at you with war, because there will be some war 1125 01:00:22,160 --> 01:00:25,680 Speaker 1: at some point, whether it be metaphorical or spiritual war, 1126 01:00:25,840 --> 01:00:28,520 Speaker 1: or we're on something right, and for us to be 1127 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:32,919 Speaker 1: prepared on both financially spiritually and be working on both 1128 01:00:32,960 --> 01:00:35,360 Speaker 1: of those will be so key.
