At the same time, it's only 43 00:01:56,360 --> 00:01:58,360 Speaker 4: a problem for people to have big egos. It's like, 44 00:01:58,440 --> 00:02:01,960 Speaker 4: don't you know my name? So I shed that ego 45 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:04,680 Speaker 4: stuff long ago. It was too heavy to carry around. 46 00:02:04,880 --> 00:02:06,520 Speaker 3: No no, but it's bad for me when I'm on TV. 47 00:02:06,600 --> 00:02:09,040 Speaker 3: And I'm screwing up to someone's name, and you know, 48 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,720 Speaker 3: it's just and I know the guy's name. I clearly know. 49 00:02:11,760 --> 00:02:14,200 Speaker 2: This human BIG's name. I covered the NFL.

Yeah yeah, but I clearly know his name. 52 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 4: I was introducing Damar de Rosan and we're doing it. 53 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:26,560 Speaker 4: We did a panel together on mental health and I 54 00:02:26,600 --> 00:02:29,840 Speaker 4: couldn't get Derosan out. I said, and you know, and 55 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:34,679 Speaker 4: I'm here with Tamar uh uh. There's a lot of audience, 56 00:02:34,919 --> 00:02:37,560 Speaker 4: like a thousand people, and I just couldn't get the rosa. 57 00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:41,480 Speaker 3: My god, man. I did that once and to speak engagement. 58 00:02:41,520 --> 00:02:43,480 Speaker 2: Also when I was somebody and who's a famous actor, 59 00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 2: and I just had a brain fart and I. 60 00:02:46,320 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 3: Just turned I said, of course everybody. 61 00:02:48,480 --> 00:02:53,160 Speaker 2: You know him, you know, mister yea, if I did that. 62 00:02:53,360 --> 00:02:56,360 Speaker 4: Hold on, it's actually a point of anxiety, and it 63 00:02:56,400 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 4: can trigger panic attacks for people in social settings, and 64 00:02:59,280 --> 00:03:01,120 Speaker 4: so it's an on to We should talk about that 65 00:03:01,160 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 4: because it's an on ramp to pank attacks and anxiety 66 00:03:03,880 --> 00:03:06,000 Speaker 4: for folks is the tip of the tongue syndrome, or 67 00:03:06,040 --> 00:03:07,280 Speaker 4: it's on the tip of the tongue, but you can't 68 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:08,040 Speaker 4: quite get it out. 69 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:10,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean here it is. I know exactly 70 00:03:10,720 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 3: what I'm talking about. 71 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,600 Speaker 2: Also, and I'm just But also I will say this 72 00:03:13,840 --> 00:03:18,040 Speaker 2: in my defense, my training partners for years are great, so. 73 00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:22,320 Speaker 3: I haven't hit that. An awful lot I have done 74 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:26,280 Speaker 3: on top of that also, so that's my defense. I'm 75 00:03:26,320 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 3: a really good coach. 76 00:03:27,480 --> 00:03:29,680 Speaker 2: I'm not a very good fighter, so I have gotten 77 00:03:30,080 --> 00:03:32,520 Speaker 2: my head beating quite a bit, so I could use that. 78 00:03:32,760 --> 00:03:34,359 Speaker 3: All right, I want to dive into your book here, 79 00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:38,520 Speaker 3: because man, to even think about this, stop worrying. 80 00:03:38,320 --> 00:03:41,280 Speaker 2: About what people think of you? How is that even possible? 81 00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:44,040 Speaker 2: How do we get to listen? I'm you know, I 82 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,200 Speaker 2: come across I think on TV so a mess. 83 00:03:46,240 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 3: Guy's so confident, But no, I'm. 84 00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:50,320 Speaker 2: So incredibly insecure me because of course I want people 85 00:03:50,400 --> 00:03:52,600 Speaker 2: to like me. And I've brought this up in many 86 00:03:52,640 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 2: times in many interviews that and my feelings get hurt easily. 87 00:03:56,320 --> 00:03:57,280 Speaker 3: So how are you to. 88 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:00,400 Speaker 2: Coach me to get myself to stop worrying about what 89 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:01,160 Speaker 2: people think of me? 90 00:04:01,800 --> 00:04:04,440 Speaker 4: Well, let's first, let's open it up just a little bit. 91 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:09,480 Speaker 4: And this obsessive worry that we have with how we're 92 00:04:09,480 --> 00:04:13,280 Speaker 4: doing makes perfect sense when you understand the biology and 93 00:04:13,400 --> 00:04:16,279 Speaker 4: the development of the brain. And so I'll open that 94 00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:19,400 Speaker 4: up in just a second. But this obsession that we have, 95 00:04:19,960 --> 00:04:22,279 Speaker 4: it is one of the great constrictors. It's one of 96 00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,640 Speaker 4: the great mechanisms that we have that keeps us safe 97 00:04:26,920 --> 00:04:30,680 Speaker 4: but keeps us small. And so it's this fear of 98 00:04:30,760 --> 00:04:34,680 Speaker 4: rejection and this need for approval that's taking place all 99 00:04:34,720 --> 00:04:37,840 Speaker 4: the time in real time that is part of the 100 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:42,200 Speaker 4: latent filter, this filter right underneath the surface about the 101 00:04:42,279 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 4: choices that you make with words, the ways that you 102 00:04:45,040 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 4: take action. Am I going to be accepted or rejected? 103 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,160 Speaker 4: Am I going to look stupid? Or are they going 104 00:04:49,200 --> 00:04:51,120 Speaker 4: to like it? And it sounds like it's not a 105 00:04:51,120 --> 00:04:54,920 Speaker 4: big deal, but your brain is designed for survival. Two 106 00:04:55,040 --> 00:04:58,960 Speaker 4: hundred thousand years ago, our ancestry were perfectly fined and 107 00:04:59,000 --> 00:05:02,400 Speaker 4: skilled at avoiding or running from or hunting. Will the 108 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,920 Speaker 4: bees and saber two tickers, and you know, like they 109 00:05:04,960 --> 00:05:07,280 Speaker 4: figured it out, that's why we're here. But there's another 110 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,360 Speaker 4: thing that was a real survival threat, and that was 111 00:05:11,400 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 4: if we were going to be kicked out of the tribe. 112 00:05:13,000 --> 00:05:15,719 Speaker 4: Getting kicked out of the tribe was a near death sentence, 113 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:19,560 Speaker 4: and so our ancestry also became highly skilled and they 114 00:05:19,640 --> 00:05:23,640 Speaker 4: passed that down to us. Is being able to interpret 115 00:05:23,720 --> 00:05:27,680 Speaker 4: just micro expressions, am I in the center or am 116 00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:30,120 Speaker 4: I getting kicked out of the tribe? And come to 117 00:05:30,160 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 4: find out, it's not talked about very often, but it 118 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:36,719 Speaker 4: is one of the great restrictors, constrictors of your potential 119 00:05:36,720 --> 00:05:40,400 Speaker 4: because people are playing it safe to belong, and that's 120 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 4: what the tribe requires, belonging, play by the rules, authenticity, 121 00:05:45,160 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 4: getting to the edge, going and pushing limits. We don't 122 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:52,200 Speaker 4: need that, not unless you've been knighted, or unless you've 123 00:05:52,240 --> 00:05:55,560 Speaker 4: been crowned to do that. So and there is no 124 00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,080 Speaker 4: real formal crowning or nighting for most people. So what 125 00:05:59,120 --> 00:06:00,800 Speaker 4: most of us are trying to do is follow the 126 00:06:00,839 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 4: dictum of the brain fit in belong, be safe, have approval, 127 00:06:05,720 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 4: don't screw it up, don't get rejected. And the way 128 00:06:08,800 --> 00:06:12,680 Speaker 4: through that jay is to make a fundamental commitment which 129 00:06:12,720 --> 00:06:15,479 Speaker 4: you have, which is to work from the inside out 130 00:06:15,920 --> 00:06:20,080 Speaker 4: to understand how your thoughts and feelings and emotions work 131 00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:24,640 Speaker 4: together and how thought, feelings and emotions uniquely yours, impact 132 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:27,000 Speaker 4: your performance and impact the way you show up in 133 00:06:27,000 --> 00:06:29,440 Speaker 4: the world, and until you make that fundamental commitment to 134 00:06:29,480 --> 00:06:32,200 Speaker 4: work from the inside out, you and I we will 135 00:06:32,240 --> 00:06:35,159 Speaker 4: be whipped around by the external stressors of the world. 136 00:06:35,200 --> 00:06:38,479 Speaker 4: And one of the great stressors in modern times is 137 00:06:38,640 --> 00:06:43,040 Speaker 4: not dark alley. The great stressors are do I belong? 138 00:06:43,480 --> 00:06:47,120 Speaker 4: Evidence by asking it? Certainly in the West, what is 139 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 4: the number one fear for most people? They don't say snakes, 140 00:06:50,200 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 4: they don't say wraths. They say public speaking. Doing your job, 141 00:06:54,800 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 4: basically getting on stage and presenting ideas in front of 142 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 4: a live audience is one of the greatest fears. So 143 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:03,359 Speaker 4: that means the most dangerous thing are the eyeballs because 144 00:07:03,440 --> 00:07:06,560 Speaker 4: usually there's not a sniper in row twelve or you know, 145 00:07:06,640 --> 00:07:09,440 Speaker 4: some sort of stavage in the front row. Like it's 146 00:07:09,520 --> 00:07:10,679 Speaker 4: it's the eyeballs with people. 147 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:12,920 Speaker 3: You know, it's interesting because you're right, like a dark 148 00:07:12,920 --> 00:07:16,160 Speaker 3: alley for me, sign me the fuck up. I'm good, right, 149 00:07:16,200 --> 00:07:17,160 Speaker 3: there's nothing wrong with that. 150 00:07:17,200 --> 00:07:20,280 Speaker 2: But the fear that one of my teammates is upset 151 00:07:20,320 --> 00:07:22,760 Speaker 2: with me, Yeah, it overwhelms me, even like you and 152 00:07:22,800 --> 00:07:25,560 Speaker 2: I just talking about it right now is bringing up 153 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:27,000 Speaker 2: a ton of anxiety for me. 154 00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 3: And I was just talking to my fiance rose about. 155 00:07:30,240 --> 00:07:33,720 Speaker 2: This, and I said, you know, I still create conflict 156 00:07:33,800 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 2: in my in between my own ears, which probably isn't there. 157 00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:40,400 Speaker 2: So it's it's really what your book is about, right, 158 00:07:40,720 --> 00:07:43,240 Speaker 2: that anxiety if man, my teammates are upset with me, 159 00:07:43,320 --> 00:07:46,480 Speaker 2: or I let someone down, or everything I've done in 160 00:07:46,520 --> 00:07:49,880 Speaker 2: life is wipe clean. You know, I'm going to be 161 00:07:49,960 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 2: judged based on just these two seconds in front of me. 162 00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:56,880 Speaker 4: That's exactly it. And so there's three phases to what 163 00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:59,560 Speaker 4: we coined as fauxpo. The great constrictor of view of 164 00:07:59,600 --> 00:08:03,040 Speaker 4: potential is fear of people's opinions. Right, And in the 165 00:08:03,040 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 4: book we get into the biology and the neurok chemistry 166 00:08:05,240 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 4: and all that kind of mechanical stuff. But here's how 167 00:08:08,200 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 4: FOCO shows up for people. It's like laughing at a 168 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,080 Speaker 4: joke that you don't really find funny, but you don't 169 00:08:12,120 --> 00:08:14,000 Speaker 4: want to be the weird one out, you know, holding 170 00:08:14,000 --> 00:08:16,520 Speaker 4: a cup at a party, like holding a cocktail at 171 00:08:16,560 --> 00:08:18,679 Speaker 4: a party, even though you don't really want to drink, 172 00:08:18,840 --> 00:08:20,440 Speaker 4: but you don't want to be the odd one out again, 173 00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:22,960 Speaker 4: you know, pretending to know a song or a movie 174 00:08:22,960 --> 00:08:25,720 Speaker 4: that everyone's laughing about or talking about. It shows up 175 00:08:25,760 --> 00:08:28,560 Speaker 4: in these very slippery ways, pulling out your phone so 176 00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 4: that you look like you've got something going on or 177 00:08:31,480 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 4: you've got your phone out because you're kind of intimidated 178 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:36,320 Speaker 4: to get into the mix with people. And it doesn't 179 00:08:36,320 --> 00:08:39,480 Speaker 4: mean it's pervasive and it always happens, and you're hold 180 00:08:39,559 --> 00:08:41,800 Speaker 4: up in your home or your office, it doesn't mean that. 181 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:45,199 Speaker 4: It means that there's just this tension about what are 182 00:08:45,200 --> 00:08:48,160 Speaker 4: they thinking about me? And if you're honest with yourself, 183 00:08:48,600 --> 00:08:51,600 Speaker 4: it shapes oftentimes the way that you think, the way 184 00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:54,480 Speaker 4: that you respond, the way that you engage. And I 185 00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:56,600 Speaker 4: thought I was alone in this. Jay. I didn't know 186 00:08:57,240 --> 00:08:59,560 Speaker 4: that when I was a kid and growing up like 187 00:09:00,040 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 4: I didn't want to look stupid and I don't want 188 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:03,840 Speaker 4: to let people down. Well, that's all about their opinion, 189 00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:07,559 Speaker 4: and it was changing the way that I was conforming 190 00:09:07,880 --> 00:09:09,959 Speaker 4: in the world. And then come to find out when 191 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 4: I spent time with the lead athletes over the last 192 00:09:11,880 --> 00:09:15,200 Speaker 4: twenty five years, they've got it too, and they look 193 00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:17,760 Speaker 4: a certain way you would never think. But when you 194 00:09:17,760 --> 00:09:20,000 Speaker 4: get just like you're talking about, when you get in 195 00:09:20,040 --> 00:09:24,199 Speaker 4: a private conversation or an honest conversation, letting people down 196 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:26,360 Speaker 4: is a problem nowah, and they don't want to look 197 00:09:26,360 --> 00:09:28,960 Speaker 4: stupid in front of other people, so they show up 198 00:09:29,360 --> 00:09:32,599 Speaker 4: and that can lead you to be even one of 199 00:09:32,640 --> 00:09:35,440 Speaker 4: the greatest in the world. But at what you do, 200 00:09:35,480 --> 00:09:39,440 Speaker 4: I should say, but there's a hollowness to it because 201 00:09:39,480 --> 00:09:43,280 Speaker 4: you abandon your first principles and the way that you 202 00:09:43,360 --> 00:09:46,440 Speaker 4: want to be for the approval or the fear of 203 00:09:46,520 --> 00:09:48,120 Speaker 4: rejection of other people. 204 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,680 Speaker 2: I am just to talk of this and what's great 205 00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:52,800 Speaker 2: about this podcast. 206 00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 3: I'm having a full blown panic attack right now as we. 207 00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:57,559 Speaker 4: Speak, So come on, are you just saying that or 208 00:09:57,600 --> 00:09:58,120 Speaker 4: you feeling it? 209 00:09:58,200 --> 00:09:58,640 Speaker 3: Good serves. 210 00:09:58,920 --> 00:10:02,320 Speaker 2: I'm sweating as are all over the place the hardest, 211 00:10:02,440 --> 00:10:04,600 Speaker 2: you know.

And yeah, 224 00:10:35,600 --> 00:10:36,199 Speaker 3: I'm kind of. 225 00:10:36,520 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 4: Why do you think that is? Why do you think 226 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,400 Speaker 4: that you've changed your model? Like, we could deal with 227 00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:42,800 Speaker 4: your physiological response right now, I could. I could walk 228 00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 4: you through a handful of tools, you know, the tools, 229 00:10:44,440 --> 00:10:46,880 Speaker 4: though you got to breathe right now, ye know, and 230 00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:50,720 Speaker 4: just be right here in this conversation and listen. 231 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:52,600 Speaker 2: I'm for the fact that I can have full blown 232 00:10:52,640 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 2: panic attacks and still function now. 233 00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,400 Speaker 4: And even talk about it, and now, right now, I'm 234 00:10:57,440 --> 00:11:00,000 Speaker 4: proud of it. This is the market leadership, by the way. 235 00:11:00,240 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 4: It's like saying the hard thing when you're in the 236 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,040 Speaker 4: hard thing, and it's completely honest. This is modern leadership, 237 00:11:05,120 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 4: Jay right here. And but let's just pull out of 238 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:09,840 Speaker 4: this for a moment, because you could. 239 00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,040 Speaker 3: Sweat right here on my forehead, like, yeah. 240 00:11:14,120 --> 00:11:16,760 Speaker 4: So your community, but your community respects you because they 241 00:11:16,800 --> 00:11:18,720 Speaker 4: know what it's like to be in a panic attack. 242 00:11:18,840 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 4: They know what it's like to have anxiety. And let's 243 00:11:20,920 --> 00:11:23,000 Speaker 4: just talk about it for a minute. There's two ways 244 00:11:23,040 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 4: to manage a full blown panic attack physiologically and psychologically. 245 00:11:26,960 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 4: So physiologically, you breathe, you come back into your body, 246 00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:36,480 Speaker 4: you focus your mind on the present moment, and you 247 00:11:36,559 --> 00:11:40,679 Speaker 4: become tactile, and it's like doing exactly what you're saying, like, oh, 248 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,040 Speaker 4: it's interesting that I'm sweating. My body's just trying to 249 00:11:43,080 --> 00:11:46,520 Speaker 4: cool off. So that's the physiological breathing is the big one. 250 00:11:46,840 --> 00:11:48,720 Speaker 4: And once you have a full blown a panic. 251 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,440 Speaker 3: If you hear me doing I'm kind of I'm doing it, yes. 252 00:11:51,760 --> 00:11:54,760 Speaker 4: Yeah, so just for tutorial reasons, it's big breath in 253 00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:57,440 Speaker 4: through your nose, take an actual sip at the top, 254 00:11:57,520 --> 00:11:58,800 Speaker 4: and then a long exhale. 255 00:11:59,120 --> 00:12:01,840 Speaker 3: Yep, yeah, yeah, so I'm doing that as you're talking 256 00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:02,640 Speaker 3: to me. That's what I'm doing. 257 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,120 Speaker 4: That's exactly so what I have to say. 258 00:12:05,040 --> 00:12:05,880 Speaker 3: On Sundays, I do that. 259 00:12:05,920 --> 00:12:09,240 Speaker 2: When Kurt asked me something, I'll slowly or quickly do 260 00:12:09,280 --> 00:12:10,840 Speaker 2: it without the world realizing one. 261 00:12:11,679 --> 00:12:14,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, that's that's all of us are managing this type 262 00:12:14,720 --> 00:12:17,959 Speaker 4: of it. Not panic attacks necessarily, but anxiousness about how's 263 00:12:18,000 --> 00:12:20,440 Speaker 4: this going to go? And what sits underneath of it? 264 00:12:20,480 --> 00:12:23,560 Speaker 4: Is like am I good enough? Am I good enough? 265 00:12:23,559 --> 00:12:26,080 Speaker 4: In the eyes of others? That's what faux po is 266 00:12:26,120 --> 00:12:28,160 Speaker 4: that's what the fear of people's opinions is. And then 267 00:12:28,200 --> 00:12:30,280 Speaker 4: the other thing not to belabor this too much day, 268 00:12:30,360 --> 00:12:32,520 Speaker 4: but then we start to use our minds. So we 269 00:12:32,559 --> 00:12:35,600 Speaker 4: talked about the physiological down regulating and by the way, 270 00:12:36,000 --> 00:12:38,040 Speaker 4: once a panic attack is on, and I know what 271 00:12:38,040 --> 00:12:40,160 Speaker 4: these feel like as well. For me, it takes like 272 00:12:40,240 --> 00:12:43,160 Speaker 4: forty five minutes to fully clear the mechanism. So a 273 00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:46,839 Speaker 4: couple breaths will settle you in, but there's still an 274 00:12:46,840 --> 00:12:49,400 Speaker 4: agitated state because you've got quarters all in there, you've 275 00:12:49,400 --> 00:12:52,679 Speaker 4: got adrenaline rolling through you, you've got stuff happening, So 276 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:54,680 Speaker 4: it's just you're just trying to manage the edge a 277 00:12:54,720 --> 00:12:57,560 Speaker 4: little bit, but not return to like this zen. You 278 00:12:57,600 --> 00:13:00,400 Speaker 4: know that takes time to get to. Then the other 279 00:13:00,440 --> 00:13:02,880 Speaker 4: side of the psychological side, it is like is that 280 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,760 Speaker 4: you instead of like what are they going to think 281 00:13:05,800 --> 00:13:08,800 Speaker 4: of me? You just focus as deeply as you can 282 00:13:08,920 --> 00:13:11,559 Speaker 4: on the task at hand. You can pick the task 283 00:13:11,600 --> 00:13:14,600 Speaker 4: at hand, or that you can you can just listen 284 00:13:14,679 --> 00:13:18,600 Speaker 4: to the unfolding moment around you. So deep focus and 285 00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 4: breathing are the two and that's the way through panic attacks. 286 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're right, and it's also it's look, I got 287 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 2: a task. I got a job too, and that's all 288 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:28,760 Speaker 2: I focus. And at the same time I do tell myself. 289 00:13:28,800 --> 00:13:32,080 Speaker 2: I convince myself you're safe, you're safe, You're right. 290 00:13:32,160 --> 00:13:33,600 Speaker 4: That's right here, right now, Let's. 291 00:13:33,400 --> 00:13:35,280 Speaker 2: Get back to the interesting part of this. The whole 292 00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:38,200 Speaker 2: thing was triggered on man, what people think of me? 293 00:13:38,520 --> 00:13:41,280 Speaker 4: Right, and yeah, so why did you have that shift? 294 00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 4: Why did you go from I don't give a rat's 295 00:13:43,280 --> 00:13:45,640 Speaker 4: ass to like, man, I think I'm caring. 296 00:13:45,960 --> 00:13:47,600 Speaker 3: Well, I cared so much grown up. 297 00:13:48,720 --> 00:13:51,480 Speaker 2: Then it changed in this question of mind to get 298 00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:55,400 Speaker 2: to where I am. It became I don't give a fuck. 299 00:13:55,440 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 2: I got just that task hand. But I also I 300 00:13:57,200 --> 00:14:00,120 Speaker 2: had nothing to lose. I was making nine thousand, one 301 00:14:00,160 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty bucks a year. And people sit there 302 00:14:03,160 --> 00:14:05,559 Speaker 2: and they go, oh, man, once you make it, everything's 303 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:07,160 Speaker 2: great and rainbows and you're in court. 304 00:14:07,200 --> 00:14:09,640 Speaker 3: No no, no, no, Now you have shit to lose. 305 00:14:09,960 --> 00:14:12,719 Speaker 2: It's totally different. When you have things to lose. That's 306 00:14:12,760 --> 00:14:15,480 Speaker 2: when the fear really becomes overwhelming. 307 00:14:15,760 --> 00:14:19,920 Speaker 4: And so yeah, we're talking about it, jack, right, yeah, yeah, right, yeah, 308 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:20,760 Speaker 4: that's what happens. 309 00:14:20,880 --> 00:14:23,440 Speaker 2: You have something to lose, and for me, my job 310 00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 2: is to be like to respect it. 311 00:14:26,400 --> 00:14:29,800 Speaker 4: So let me hit that, because that is where that 312 00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:33,600 Speaker 4: that thinking is what led to even the five minutes 313 00:14:33,600 --> 00:14:35,520 Speaker 4: ago panicasack. And you're probably feeling a little bit better 314 00:14:35,520 --> 00:14:35,840 Speaker 4: by now. 315 00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 3: Yeah I'm a little bit. 316 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:38,240 Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, I gets talking to you. 317 00:14:38,320 --> 00:14:40,000 Speaker 3: Which is great, and that's the whole point of Hey, 318 00:14:40,040 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 3: there's why we talk about it. People. If we don't 319 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:44,000 Speaker 3: talk about it, we cave in even more. I get 320 00:14:44,040 --> 00:14:44,520 Speaker 3: talking about it. 321 00:14:44,520 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 2: I'm talking to you all publicly as i'm having and 322 00:14:47,520 --> 00:14:49,760 Speaker 2: you can even here a wheezing a little bit. 323 00:14:49,960 --> 00:14:51,400 Speaker 3: I'm having you publicly. 324 00:14:51,560 --> 00:14:53,600 Speaker 2: I never would have talked about this years ago and 325 00:14:53,640 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 2: never would acknowledge. The fact that I could do this 326 00:14:55,400 --> 00:14:57,440 Speaker 2: with you makes me feel better. And that's why I 327 00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:59,400 Speaker 2: want people to open up to each other. So that's 328 00:14:59,400 --> 00:14:59,920 Speaker 2: how you get through. 329 00:15:00,800 --> 00:15:03,280 Speaker 4: But Jay, this is freedom. What you're modeling right now 330 00:15:03,400 --> 00:15:06,440 Speaker 4: is full freedom. Even in the midst of the messy 331 00:15:06,520 --> 00:15:09,240 Speaker 4: edge that you're feeling right now. This is full freedom 332 00:15:09,280 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 4: because you're naming it in an honest way. You're working 333 00:15:12,600 --> 00:15:15,280 Speaker 4: from truth and so you're not trying to bend or 334 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:19,360 Speaker 4: manipulate reality. You're working from the ground source. And when 335 00:15:19,400 --> 00:15:21,520 Speaker 4: you do that, you put yourself back in a position 336 00:15:21,560 --> 00:15:25,320 Speaker 4: of power, which is radical. So the idea that like, 337 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 4: because you're a public personality and you're on TV, this 338 00:15:28,560 --> 00:15:31,920 Speaker 4: idea that I can only stay here if I'm liked 339 00:15:32,440 --> 00:15:35,120 Speaker 4: is a bit of a poison, and there is some 340 00:15:35,240 --> 00:15:38,000 Speaker 4: truth to it because if ratings go down, and ratings 341 00:15:38,040 --> 00:15:41,840 Speaker 4: are basically I'm rating you, I'm critiquing you, and I'm 342 00:15:41,920 --> 00:15:44,960 Speaker 4: voting with my channel clicker if I'm going to turn 343 00:15:45,000 --> 00:15:47,840 Speaker 4: off when Jay comes on, well that message is loud 344 00:15:47,880 --> 00:15:50,560 Speaker 4: and clear to people making decisions to keep you in 345 00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:53,240 Speaker 4: your position. So there is some truth to it. People's 346 00:15:53,280 --> 00:15:58,560 Speaker 4: opinions actually materially do matter, okay, But the thing that 347 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,840 Speaker 4: we're pointing to is that your actual job is to 348 00:16:01,880 --> 00:16:04,000 Speaker 4: get to the truth, just like you're practicing right now 349 00:16:04,040 --> 00:16:06,280 Speaker 4: when you're on stage and on air, that you are 350 00:16:06,360 --> 00:16:09,000 Speaker 4: listening deeply, you're responding with a point of view that 351 00:16:09,200 --> 00:16:12,480 Speaker 4: unique to you, and you thought deeply about it, or 352 00:16:12,640 --> 00:16:15,120 Speaker 4: you just let it roll because your body of work 353 00:16:15,160 --> 00:16:17,360 Speaker 4: speaks for itself, and you've been in this industry for 354 00:16:17,400 --> 00:16:19,800 Speaker 4: thirty years you understand it. So but it's to be 355 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,600 Speaker 4: true to oneself. Is the anecdote to the poison. I 356 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:26,040 Speaker 4: have to be good enough for them, right, And it 357 00:16:26,120 --> 00:16:30,800 Speaker 4: sounds easy. I mean, it's rare for a reason, Jay. 358 00:16:30,520 --> 00:16:31,960 Speaker 3: And this you just write a book on it. 359 00:16:31,960 --> 00:16:37,280 Speaker 2: By the way, I've sweated through my shirts. I've sweated 360 00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:37,840 Speaker 2: through my shirt. 361 00:16:38,400 --> 00:16:40,400 Speaker 4: So now you're going to get Now you're gonna get you. 362 00:16:41,080 --> 00:16:43,560 Speaker 4: I love this for you, not for me. But so 363 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:47,239 Speaker 4: you're you're going to thanks a lot for you. Well, 364 00:16:46,760 --> 00:16:49,640 Speaker 4: then I'll tell you why, because now we're we're actually 365 00:16:50,000 --> 00:16:55,160 Speaker 4: to capture this is awesome because it's yeah. So here's 366 00:16:55,200 --> 00:16:57,200 Speaker 4: the here's the thing is like you can actually work 367 00:16:57,240 --> 00:16:59,680 Speaker 4: with it right now with somebody that understands it. And 368 00:16:59,720 --> 00:17:01,120 Speaker 4: so here's what's going to happen. 369 00:17:01,120 --> 00:17:01,840 Speaker 2: Next. 370 00:17:02,160 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 4: You're going to start to get cold because your temperature 371 00:17:05,720 --> 00:17:07,520 Speaker 4: has heat it up in such a way your body 372 00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:10,280 Speaker 4: automatically responded to a sweat, which is to cool you down. 373 00:17:10,600 --> 00:17:12,000 Speaker 4: And now you're going to start to get just a 374 00:17:12,040 --> 00:17:15,880 Speaker 4: little cold. And then so that's physiological the psychology. You're 375 00:17:15,920 --> 00:17:18,800 Speaker 4: going to start to say, should I have mentioned anything? 376 00:17:18,960 --> 00:17:21,080 Speaker 4: Maybe no one would have noticed, why am I doing this? 377 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:24,160 Speaker 4: So it's kind of like the second hit that takes 378 00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:27,560 Speaker 4: place of doubt for people, or you slide right into like, 379 00:17:27,800 --> 00:17:30,480 Speaker 4: this is fucking awesome, Like, are you kidding me? I'm 380 00:17:30,480 --> 00:17:33,600 Speaker 4: the freest dude alive because I'm working from truth. So 381 00:17:34,240 --> 00:17:36,800 Speaker 4: you get on one of those two trains are familiar 382 00:17:36,840 --> 00:17:40,000 Speaker 4: trains to people that have had panic attacks. I'd suggest 383 00:17:40,119 --> 00:17:42,080 Speaker 4: just stay on the train of like I. 384 00:17:42,040 --> 00:17:45,159 Speaker 3: Am me yeah, and I'm I'm never ashamed of it. 385 00:17:45,440 --> 00:17:46,160 Speaker 4: That's awesome day. 386 00:17:46,160 --> 00:17:48,320 Speaker 3: And I actually had a bad day. 387 00:17:48,600 --> 00:17:50,760 Speaker 2: It was kind of weird, and that's I think my 388 00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:53,040 Speaker 2: schedule has just kind of been off and kind of whatever. 389 00:17:53,119 --> 00:17:55,760 Speaker 3: So and you know, this was one of the rare weekends. 390 00:17:56,280 --> 00:18:01,440 Speaker 2: Actually, halfway through the day, I just told, oh no, man, 391 00:18:01,480 --> 00:18:03,040 Speaker 2: I'm starting to go in that dark gray. And then 392 00:18:03,080 --> 00:18:06,159 Speaker 2: I told Terry Bradshaw because that's who the one I 393 00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:07,600 Speaker 2: learned about it from. 394 00:18:07,960 --> 00:18:10,560 Speaker 4: So I listened to it and the gray, we talk 395 00:18:10,600 --> 00:18:11,320 Speaker 4: about the gray. 396 00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:11,720 Speaker 3: The gray. Yeah. 397 00:18:11,800 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 2: Yeah, this was a in the middle of Sunday's boxing 398 00:18:15,160 --> 00:18:17,680 Speaker 2: vile Sunday our day. You know, we're watching football and 399 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:19,760 Speaker 2: it couldn't be better. I got my teammates around me 400 00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 2: were laughing. 401 00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:22,720 Speaker 3: I just had one. It just it just came on 402 00:18:22,800 --> 00:18:24,399 Speaker 3: and it hit and I was off the air for 403 00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,080 Speaker 3: the rest of the day. I was just man, just hit. 404 00:18:26,200 --> 00:18:28,400 Speaker 3: But I was able to tell Curtin Terry, which again 405 00:18:28,520 --> 00:18:30,679 Speaker 3: to talk about right here. So I leaned into it. 406 00:18:30,720 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 3: I didn't run away from it. 407 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,600 Speaker 2: I'm like, okay, I got to tell these guys and 408 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:35,920 Speaker 2: it's a little bit more liberating. 409 00:18:36,400 --> 00:18:39,400 Speaker 3: But again, let's let's get back to this, this whole 410 00:18:39,400 --> 00:18:40,960 Speaker 3: thing what you wrote about. By the way, this is 411 00:18:41,080 --> 00:18:43,479 Speaker 3: about Terry. That's Terry's whole thing. 412 00:18:43,480 --> 00:18:45,600 Speaker 2: Also, it was always man, he's he has the same 413 00:18:45,720 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 2: fear of being rejected and and oh man, it's gonna 414 00:18:50,040 --> 00:18:52,360 Speaker 2: be you know, this is my my last year, he says, 415 00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:53,840 Speaker 2: he said this for thirty years, this will be my 416 00:18:53,960 --> 00:18:54,400 Speaker 2: last year. 417 00:18:54,520 --> 00:18:56,520 Speaker 3: I said, also, it's gonna be the it's gonna be it. 418 00:18:56,800 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 3: The sky's always falling. 419 00:18:57,920 --> 00:19:01,320 Speaker 2: But it's you know, I think, no matter what my 420 00:19:01,400 --> 00:19:05,760 Speaker 2: insecurity sends and securities, everybody's insecurities are based on the 421 00:19:05,840 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 2: root of exactly what you're. 422 00:19:07,200 --> 00:19:10,320 Speaker 3: Writing about, of that fear not being liked. 423 00:19:10,800 --> 00:19:13,960 Speaker 2: So give me your book, Like, give us if I 424 00:19:13,960 --> 00:19:16,520 Speaker 2: could turn around and teach something to my teammates, Terry 425 00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 2: and everybody else that I work with right now, give 426 00:19:19,119 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: me some bullet points that kind of get us through 427 00:19:21,040 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 2: the art I guess if you will, of being liked 428 00:19:23,119 --> 00:19:23,960 Speaker 2: and not caring that. 429 00:19:24,040 --> 00:19:25,120 Speaker 3: What people say about us. 430 00:19:25,440 --> 00:19:27,280 Speaker 4: Okay, So I'm glad you brought up caring because the 431 00:19:27,320 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 4: subtitle is stop worrying. The subtitle is not stop caring. 432 00:19:31,680 --> 00:19:35,280 Speaker 4: So people's opinions, Some people's opinions materially matter. So we 433 00:19:35,359 --> 00:19:39,240 Speaker 4: need to first identify whose opinions matter to you. And 434 00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:41,320 Speaker 4: for me, I've got a roundtable and it's eight people. 435 00:19:41,600 --> 00:19:43,640 Speaker 4: And to have a seat at that roundtable, two things 436 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,720 Speaker 4: that've had to take place. One is they've they've had 437 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:49,520 Speaker 4: time under tension with me and for them to demonstrate 438 00:19:49,560 --> 00:19:52,680 Speaker 4: that they care about me and my growth and who 439 00:19:52,720 --> 00:19:56,960 Speaker 4: I am, my struggles and my ambitions and you know 440 00:19:57,080 --> 00:19:59,520 Speaker 4: what flourishing as a human looks like for me, Like 441 00:19:59,560 --> 00:20:02,800 Speaker 4: they re care and I've got time under tension with them. 442 00:20:02,960 --> 00:20:05,160 Speaker 4: The second thing is that they've been in the arena. 443 00:20:05,359 --> 00:20:09,040 Speaker 4: They understand pressure, they understand what it takes to get 444 00:20:09,040 --> 00:20:12,600 Speaker 4: to the edge publicly or privately and stay in that 445 00:20:12,680 --> 00:20:16,280 Speaker 4: agitated state in an honest way, because that's what's required 446 00:20:16,280 --> 00:20:18,879 Speaker 4: for breakthroughs. So to get on my roundtable, for me 447 00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:22,760 Speaker 4: to care about your opinion, there's an earned scar tissue together, 448 00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:26,960 Speaker 4: and it's that tenderness of caring that they've demonstrated and 449 00:20:27,040 --> 00:20:29,440 Speaker 4: in return, hopefully I'm doing the same gift for them. 450 00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 4: And they've been in it, they understand quote unquote it. 451 00:20:33,760 --> 00:20:36,520 Speaker 4: So I do think that people's opinions do matter now 452 00:20:36,560 --> 00:20:39,560 Speaker 4: outside of the roundtable, if you will, And that's a 453 00:20:39,600 --> 00:20:42,640 Speaker 4: good exercise. Who's at your roundtable? It's a really good 454 00:20:42,680 --> 00:20:45,520 Speaker 4: exercise just to go through that. And I think you'd 455 00:20:45,520 --> 00:20:48,359 Speaker 4: be surprised some of the people at the roundtable. You 456 00:20:48,440 --> 00:20:51,119 Speaker 4: might feel like, Wow, that person should be there because 457 00:20:51,160 --> 00:20:55,520 Speaker 4: it's my parent. But if there's only eight seats, who 458 00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,040 Speaker 4: are the ones that you really care about? So it's 459 00:20:59,040 --> 00:21:01,520 Speaker 4: a hard, good exercise. And then second, you know, the 460 00:21:01,560 --> 00:21:04,639 Speaker 4: second layer is where it gets tricky, which is like 461 00:21:05,000 --> 00:21:10,199 Speaker 4: the college admissions advisor, the producer, or who's ever responsible 462 00:21:10,200 --> 00:21:13,960 Speaker 4: for budget negotiation. Those opinions do matter, but if you're 463 00:21:13,960 --> 00:21:17,600 Speaker 4: not true to yourself, you're playing their game and for 464 00:21:17,680 --> 00:21:21,080 Speaker 4: their approval as opposed to working from the inside out 465 00:21:21,320 --> 00:21:23,359 Speaker 4: and being true to your ideas, being true to the 466 00:21:23,400 --> 00:21:25,919 Speaker 4: way that you are wanting to experience the world. So 467 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,040 Speaker 4: I want that back to your eight people here, Okay, people. 468 00:21:28,960 --> 00:21:29,480 Speaker 3: Round table. 469 00:21:30,440 --> 00:21:33,439 Speaker 2: Are these eight people that you look at and go, Okay, 470 00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 2: no matter what I know, I'm walking this walk together 471 00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,560 Speaker 2: and they got my fucking back or is it? Hey, 472 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:42,040 Speaker 2: I got eight people and they may be screwed up too, 473 00:21:42,160 --> 00:21:45,000 Speaker 2: but they're still at that table. I may not get 474 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:47,200 Speaker 2: what I need back from them, but I love them 475 00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:49,359 Speaker 2: this much that they're at that table. 476 00:21:50,119 --> 00:21:52,320 Speaker 4: You can make up the rules. The purpose is is like, 477 00:21:52,400 --> 00:21:56,399 Speaker 4: whose opinions are you going to deeply value? And I 478 00:21:56,440 --> 00:22:00,080 Speaker 4: need some sturdiness for me. I need to know that 479 00:22:00,520 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 4: their opinion is not going to be flippant, It's going 480 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:05,639 Speaker 4: to be honest, it's real. It's in context of my 481 00:22:05,880 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 4: unique history and all of my pain and the brilliance 482 00:22:10,200 --> 00:22:12,240 Speaker 4: of how I'm trying to see the future. I need 483 00:22:12,240 --> 00:22:15,119 Speaker 4: them to have context because I could walk down the 484 00:22:15,119 --> 00:22:17,720 Speaker 4: street and say, a j black shirt. Really you wear 485 00:22:17,760 --> 00:22:20,639 Speaker 4: black shirt again?

So for me, those people those eight, yes, 491 00:22:37,600 --> 00:22:40,440 Speaker 4: they have my back, meaning that they under they put 492 00:22:40,440 --> 00:22:43,640 Speaker 4: in time, under tension to demonstrate how much they actually care. 493 00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:47,040 Speaker 4: So I'm going to in return, hopefully be able to 494 00:22:47,359 --> 00:22:49,480 Speaker 4: honor the opinions that they're sharing. 495 00:22:49,680 --> 00:22:51,480 Speaker 2: Those are the eight for me, which also so also 496 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:53,240 Speaker 2: people are going to call me I'm like my shit. 497 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,000 Speaker 4: Basically, that's it, That's exactly it. Yeah, and just calling 498 00:22:57,040 --> 00:22:59,560 Speaker 4: it out of context is like kind of weak, right, 499 00:23:00,240 --> 00:23:02,359 Speaker 4: know you and that you've built the relationship where they 500 00:23:02,359 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 4: can be honest with you, you might put them at 501 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:04,600 Speaker 4: the round table. 502 00:23:04,680 --> 00:23:06,600 Speaker 2: But I think it's also people who just say some 503 00:23:06,640 --> 00:23:09,240 Speaker 2: people I just need unconditional love from Some people say 504 00:23:09,240 --> 00:23:10,320 Speaker 2: not need call me on my shop. 505 00:23:10,359 --> 00:23:12,040 Speaker 3: I just need that love, right, And that's right. 506 00:23:12,080 --> 00:23:14,119 Speaker 2: It's interesting you're saying the eight because I used to 507 00:23:14,119 --> 00:23:17,199 Speaker 2: always look life like, hey, who are the four legs 508 00:23:17,200 --> 00:23:17,919 Speaker 2: of my table? 509 00:23:18,560 --> 00:23:21,160 Speaker 3: That's cool and it's going to be a cool exercise 510 00:23:21,200 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 3: for me to do to try to expand it to eight. 511 00:23:23,480 --> 00:23:26,080 Speaker 2: And I kind of you know, the four legs of 512 00:23:26,119 --> 00:23:31,159 Speaker 2: my table I've probably changed interchanged here and there throughout. 513 00:23:31,240 --> 00:23:34,040 Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know you can you can also add 514 00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:37,240 Speaker 4: you could add Jesus if you wanted, you could add Buddha. 515 00:23:37,320 --> 00:23:40,040 Speaker 4: You could add you know, you could add someone you 516 00:23:40,040 --> 00:23:42,199 Speaker 4: don't really know, but you feel like you have a 517 00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:44,960 Speaker 4: relationship with them. I have one spot reserved for that 518 00:23:45,040 --> 00:23:48,240 Speaker 4: as well on my aide. So you know, I just 519 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,119 Speaker 4: don't get to hear their opinion, you know. So it's 520 00:23:51,119 --> 00:23:52,800 Speaker 4: a little it's a little bit more complicated. 521 00:23:53,160 --> 00:23:55,840 Speaker 3: It's interesting. Yeah, I'm a big I'm a big God guy. 522 00:23:55,840 --> 00:23:58,560 Speaker 2: But I've always right. I've never put God at the table. 523 00:23:58,600 --> 00:24:01,119 Speaker 2: I've always been like and for me, it's my relationship 524 00:24:01,160 --> 00:24:03,359 Speaker 2: with faith. There's always been like I've always punished as 525 00:24:03,359 --> 00:24:05,760 Speaker 2: a little kid. I got brought upstairs this dark room 526 00:24:05,800 --> 00:24:07,720 Speaker 2: all the time, and I just started talking talking to God, 527 00:24:07,720 --> 00:24:09,520 Speaker 2: and I just started looking God as my best friend, 528 00:24:09,560 --> 00:24:11,040 Speaker 2: and like a best friend to have parent, Who do 529 00:24:11,040 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 2: you what do you want a best friend? 530 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:13,960 Speaker 3: Really? You just wants someone to listen, to be there 531 00:24:13,960 --> 00:24:14,080 Speaker 3: for you. 532 00:24:14,359 --> 00:24:16,440 Speaker 2: I'm not trying to use God to like, hey, get 533 00:24:16,520 --> 00:24:18,920 Speaker 2: this job, or hey, you know, make this happen for me, 534 00:24:19,040 --> 00:24:20,600 Speaker 2: or if you don't make this happen for me, I'm 535 00:24:20,600 --> 00:24:22,920 Speaker 2: gonna stop believing in you. I don't have that relationship 536 00:24:22,960 --> 00:24:26,440 Speaker 2: my relationship is more just I'll do it, I'll get 537 00:24:26,440 --> 00:24:27,080 Speaker 2: where I need to go. 538 00:24:27,400 --> 00:24:29,040 Speaker 3: Just pick me up, brush me off, and let's keep 539 00:24:29,080 --> 00:24:29,960 Speaker 3: walking this walk together. 540 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 2: I never viewed faith as being a part of that table. 541 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 2: If you will, whether it's by four or my eight, 542 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:38,840 Speaker 2: it's pretty interested. I'm going to add that today. 543 00:24:38,960 --> 00:24:39,840 Speaker 3: I love that. Yeah. Cool. 544 00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:42,080 Speaker 4: Yeah, it's a good exercise. It's a really good exercise. 545 00:24:42,119 --> 00:24:42,639 Speaker 3: Yeah. 546 00:24:42,960 --> 00:24:45,040 Speaker 4: And then the other thing is like when you're doing 547 00:24:45,080 --> 00:24:48,960 Speaker 4: the exercise, you'll recognize, like, man, I don't want to 548 00:24:49,040 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 4: send this to like a parent, maybe because they're not 549 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 4: on the list. Let's just say that for example. And 550 00:24:54,240 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 4: then it's this weird thing like, well, I'm caring about 551 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,000 Speaker 4: their opinion, but I don't even want them on the 552 00:24:59,040 --> 00:25:01,400 Speaker 4: list of eight at the round table. Like that's how 553 00:25:01,440 --> 00:25:05,440 Speaker 4: slippery this thing is. And here's the origins of it. 554 00:25:05,560 --> 00:25:09,719 Speaker 4: Your brain is designed to care about fitting in. Like 555 00:25:09,760 --> 00:25:12,920 Speaker 4: we talked about. The second piece is that our culture, 556 00:25:13,040 --> 00:25:17,000 Speaker 4: certainly in the West, is obsessed with performance, and it 557 00:25:17,040 --> 00:25:19,720 Speaker 4: would make perfect sense that we would raise handfuls of 558 00:25:19,760 --> 00:25:23,680 Speaker 4: generations yours and mind included, where we would fit into 559 00:25:23,720 --> 00:25:28,320 Speaker 4: what's called a or develop what's called a performance based identity. Now, 560 00:25:28,400 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 4: let me explain that. Okay, So the culture values performance, 561 00:25:31,320 --> 00:25:33,280 Speaker 4: how you fit and stack rank and how. 562 00:25:33,119 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 3: Well you're doing. 563 00:25:34,400 --> 00:25:36,720 Speaker 4: We're obsessed with it. So then we build a performance 564 00:25:36,720 --> 00:25:40,159 Speaker 4: based identity, and the definition is that I am not 565 00:25:40,520 --> 00:25:44,560 Speaker 4: who I am. I am what I do relative to 566 00:25:44,640 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 4: how well I do it compared to other people. So 567 00:25:48,359 --> 00:25:52,160 Speaker 4: my identity becomes how well I do something. So when 568 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:54,480 Speaker 4: I go on the mound, or when I go onto 569 00:25:54,480 --> 00:25:56,600 Speaker 4: the pitch, or when I go on to the you know, 570 00:25:56,640 --> 00:25:59,800 Speaker 4: the stage, whatever the thing is for somebody. This is 571 00:25:59,800 --> 00:26:02,040 Speaker 4: why it's so hard for so many of us is 572 00:26:02,080 --> 00:26:05,800 Speaker 4: because it's not just public speaking, it's not just sharing 573 00:26:05,840 --> 00:26:09,600 Speaker 4: the ideas. It's the fact that they are judging all 574 00:26:09,640 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 4: of me. My entire identity is at stake. People say 575 00:26:14,080 --> 00:26:16,199 Speaker 4: round ball and round bat is a very one of 576 00:26:16,200 --> 00:26:18,879 Speaker 4: the hardest things to do in sport. I disagree. I'malk. 577 00:26:18,880 --> 00:26:21,359 Speaker 4: I'm going to point the surfing, but okay, that's a 578 00:26:21,359 --> 00:26:24,040 Speaker 4: different story. But round ball, round bat just to you know, 579 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:26,199 Speaker 4: kind of make it easy for folks to relate to. 580 00:26:27,160 --> 00:26:30,520 Speaker 4: What's incredibly hard is that you have to deeply focus. Okay, 581 00:26:30,560 --> 00:26:33,359 Speaker 4: and it is a challenging task. But what happens for 582 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,439 Speaker 4: most people. When you've got I don't know, millions watching, 583 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:39,840 Speaker 4: you know, sixty thousand that or whatever the stadium is 584 00:26:39,880 --> 00:26:42,880 Speaker 4: holding eyeballs on you. Is that you're trying to manage 585 00:26:42,920 --> 00:26:45,600 Speaker 4: your identity. You're trying to manage your ego, You're trying 586 00:26:45,640 --> 00:26:49,440 Speaker 4: to manage approval and not look stupid at the same time. 587 00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:51,239 Speaker 4: What you need to do is drive all of your 588 00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:53,719 Speaker 4: attention to picking up the laces, so your mind can 589 00:26:53,760 --> 00:26:55,520 Speaker 4: only focus on one thing at a time. And if 590 00:26:55,560 --> 00:27:00,160 Speaker 4: it's trying to manage looking good versus deep focus, I'll 591 00:27:00,160 --> 00:27:03,159 Speaker 4: never see the ball. It's too fast. It's happening to 592 00:27:03,520 --> 00:27:06,159 Speaker 4: same with on stage, same with whatever. The thing that 593 00:27:06,200 --> 00:27:09,160 Speaker 4: you matter is that matters to you. Our mind can 594 00:27:09,200 --> 00:27:12,719 Speaker 4: only focus on one thing at a time well, and 595 00:27:12,800 --> 00:27:15,840 Speaker 4: so having the skill, the psychological skill to have deep 596 00:27:15,840 --> 00:27:20,400 Speaker 4: focus is one worth investing in. Hands down, Is. 597 00:27:20,359 --> 00:27:24,240 Speaker 2: There also a way do you have tactics in whether 598 00:27:24,320 --> 00:27:26,119 Speaker 2: this book or other teachings as well? 599 00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:29,520 Speaker 3: Where I could start, how do you get yourself. 600 00:27:29,160 --> 00:27:32,920 Speaker 2: To shift for you to care more about what your 601 00:27:32,920 --> 00:27:35,359 Speaker 2: opinion is of you than others? 602 00:27:35,720 --> 00:27:36,560 Speaker 3: But that is of you? 603 00:27:37,359 --> 00:27:40,480 Speaker 4: Yeah, I love that. And before I directly answer that 604 00:27:40,520 --> 00:27:43,439 Speaker 4: I'm going to give you maybe something that's going to 605 00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:46,960 Speaker 4: add material context is that so to go from a 606 00:27:47,040 --> 00:27:53,000 Speaker 4: performance based identity to a purpose based identity. So this 607 00:27:53,160 --> 00:27:56,359 Speaker 4: is no longer about your opinion of yourself here, this 608 00:27:56,480 --> 00:27:59,560 Speaker 4: is about how true are you to the purpose that 609 00:27:59,560 --> 00:28:03,640 Speaker 4: matters most to you? And that is the escape hatch, 610 00:28:03,920 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 4: that's the relief valve to go from performance based like man, 611 00:28:08,560 --> 00:28:11,720 Speaker 4: what do they think of me? To your point, which 612 00:28:11,760 --> 00:28:14,640 Speaker 4: is like, well, how am I being true to me? Okay, 613 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,800 Speaker 4: they're kind of in the same bucket. Not really, they're 614 00:28:17,840 --> 00:28:20,880 Speaker 4: materially different. But the entirely different game is when you're 615 00:28:20,880 --> 00:28:23,720 Speaker 4: clear about your purpose in life. This podcast, for example, 616 00:28:23,960 --> 00:28:26,760 Speaker 4: for you, right, there's a purpose underneath of it. And 617 00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:30,040 Speaker 4: then so you're measuring how true you are to the purpose, 618 00:28:30,480 --> 00:28:32,720 Speaker 4: how much you're actually giving to the purpose. Because you 619 00:28:32,720 --> 00:28:34,840 Speaker 4: had a choice, Jay, this is why I have such 620 00:28:34,920 --> 00:28:37,560 Speaker 4: respect for you. You could have held back and not 621 00:28:37,640 --> 00:28:41,240 Speaker 4: said anything about a panic attack. You could have said, hey, guys, 622 00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:43,880 Speaker 4: I need to go to the bathroom, say hey, my 623 00:28:43,960 --> 00:28:46,440 Speaker 4: camera's not working, hold on, give me a minute. You 624 00:28:46,480 --> 00:28:49,000 Speaker 4: had a choice or just to not say anything at all, 625 00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 4: and maybe no one ever notices. But the choice you 626 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:54,200 Speaker 4: made was to be honest, to get to the truth, 627 00:28:54,240 --> 00:28:58,200 Speaker 4: because that is what this podcast is about, and you're 628 00:28:58,200 --> 00:28:59,440 Speaker 4: not going to hide from it. You're going to be 629 00:28:59,480 --> 00:29:03,160 Speaker 4: about it. So you actually are living here the evidence 630 00:29:03,240 --> 00:29:05,400 Speaker 4: of a purpose based identity. 631 00:29:06,400 --> 00:29:15,160 Speaker 2: You who better to have a panic attack with than you? 632 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:18,080 Speaker 2: Can't be better than that? Like, it's so good, Hey man, 633 00:29:18,080 --> 00:29:20,440 Speaker 2: I'm having pitching problems. I'm hanging out with Nolan Ryan. Like, 634 00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:22,480 Speaker 2: I'm good. It's a perfect guy. 635 00:29:23,280 --> 00:29:26,120 Speaker 4: Oh that's so funny. Yeah. 636 00:29:26,320 --> 00:29:28,239 Speaker 3: And I'm proud of my scars. That's the whole thing. 637 00:29:28,240 --> 00:29:30,400 Speaker 3: I try and get people to understand. My scars are 638 00:29:30,520 --> 00:29:31,760 Speaker 3: my superpowers. It's not. 639 00:29:32,560 --> 00:29:34,480 Speaker 2: And we're talking to hear about purpose, right, It's not 640 00:29:35,240 --> 00:29:38,880 Speaker 2: the successes, it's the scars. It's what I've overcome. When 641 00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:40,120 Speaker 2: I walk in the room, I look at it, and 642 00:29:40,120 --> 00:29:41,880 Speaker 2: I look at everybody in there. I go, y'ell, I 643 00:29:41,880 --> 00:29:44,200 Speaker 2: ain't like me. I'm different, and not because of what 644 00:29:44,240 --> 00:29:46,200 Speaker 2: I've achieved, but because of what I've overcome. 645 00:29:46,800 --> 00:29:50,360 Speaker 4: I love that, And everybody's face down something like we 646 00:29:50,400 --> 00:29:53,040 Speaker 4: all have our stars and we need the cool kids 647 00:29:53,120 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 4: like you to be about it and to raise your 648 00:29:55,840 --> 00:29:59,400 Speaker 4: hand and to say hey, listen, I got scars, and 649 00:29:59,520 --> 00:30:01,440 Speaker 4: you know what, I'm done with them. I'm a work 650 00:30:01,480 --> 00:30:03,680 Speaker 4: in progress, and be nice if I was perfect, but 651 00:30:03,680 --> 00:30:05,840 Speaker 4: I'm leaving that for the enlightened. I'm still trying to 652 00:30:05,840 --> 00:30:09,360 Speaker 4: figure it out, you know. So nobody does the extraordinary 653 00:30:09,440 --> 00:30:12,680 Speaker 4: loan Jay like. We need each other. We really do 654 00:30:12,800 --> 00:30:15,040 Speaker 4: need each other. We're more like we're designed more like 655 00:30:15,120 --> 00:30:17,200 Speaker 4: a core reef, but we don't act that way. We 656 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,680 Speaker 4: act like we're individual contributors. We're unique unicorns, you know, 657 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,480 Speaker 4: but we are really deeply connected and we need each other. 658 00:30:24,520 --> 00:30:27,360 Speaker 2: So also, going back to you were saying, because you're 659 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:29,360 Speaker 2: going to answer my question, but then new veered. 660 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,200 Speaker 3: Yes, right, so I can't pay the ad D guys 661 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:33,040 Speaker 3: making you go back. 662 00:30:32,880 --> 00:30:38,520 Speaker 4: To all how about that? See we need yeah it together. 663 00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 4: So purpose base, I'm sorry, performance based to purpose space. 664 00:30:44,040 --> 00:30:46,800 Speaker 4: And your question is like, how do you know if 665 00:30:46,880 --> 00:30:50,120 Speaker 4: you how does your opinion of yourself become louder than 666 00:30:50,120 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 4: the opinions of others? Right, And the sleight of hand 667 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:56,160 Speaker 4: that I was making is instead of doing that, be 668 00:30:56,320 --> 00:31:00,440 Speaker 4: true to a purpose. So that's that is your your gauge, right, 669 00:31:00,600 --> 00:31:03,920 Speaker 4: is that know your purpose? And that takes time to 670 00:31:04,720 --> 00:31:07,240 Speaker 4: identify that. If you're not clear what your purpose is, 671 00:31:08,080 --> 00:31:09,840 Speaker 4: I would say that that's the biggest piece of work 672 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,960 Speaker 4: to do, next to the roundtable of eight. Okay, all right. 673 00:31:13,280 --> 00:31:15,560 Speaker 4: And then to answer your question though, if you're not 674 00:31:15,760 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 4: down with doing either of those and you're saying, no, 675 00:31:17,520 --> 00:31:20,240 Speaker 4: I just want to know my opinion matters about me, okay, 676 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:23,520 Speaker 4: So then you need to be incredibly clear about what 677 00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:27,080 Speaker 4: your core virtues and values are that matter to you. 678 00:31:28,040 --> 00:31:31,400 Speaker 4: So you're not mapping it to your performance. You're mapping 679 00:31:31,400 --> 00:31:34,800 Speaker 4: it to how the quality and the character of the 680 00:31:34,880 --> 00:31:39,600 Speaker 4: human that you are. So that's the foundation. Then on 681 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:42,560 Speaker 4: top of that you can layer your standards for performance. 682 00:31:43,160 --> 00:31:45,520 Speaker 4: So you could be a great performer. But if you 683 00:31:45,600 --> 00:31:49,680 Speaker 4: are lying, cheating, getting over, sneaking one through and your 684 00:31:49,760 --> 00:31:54,960 Speaker 4: virtues are suspect, it's unsustainable. It gets found out and 685 00:31:55,040 --> 00:31:58,160 Speaker 4: you know that what you're doing is playing a shell game. 686 00:31:58,640 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 4: So what I'm saying is build a foundation. And the 687 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:03,360 Speaker 4: foundation is the virtues, the values that matter to you, 688 00:32:03,680 --> 00:32:06,320 Speaker 4: the things that you're going to stack your performance standards on. 689 00:32:06,640 --> 00:32:09,800 Speaker 4: So first do the deep work, there's no shortcuts, Okay, 690 00:32:10,040 --> 00:32:14,160 Speaker 4: Then you can have some real opinions about your performance standards. 691 00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:16,760 Speaker 4: My standards are crazy high. I'm sure yours on. But 692 00:32:16,920 --> 00:32:20,520 Speaker 4: if they're high standards without having foundation, they just end 693 00:32:20,640 --> 00:32:23,280 Speaker 4: up getting really flimsy and it's hard to repeat them. 694 00:32:23,480 --> 00:32:26,440 Speaker 4: So then the way that we have opinions of ourselves. 695 00:32:26,520 --> 00:32:29,800 Speaker 4: Now we're getting into the art of coaching. So actually, technically, 696 00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 4: how do you do it? Coach yourself like you are 697 00:32:33,000 --> 00:32:36,960 Speaker 4: one of your greatest friends or your greatest athletes that 698 00:32:37,000 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 4: you would ever love to work with, are a great partner. 699 00:32:39,600 --> 00:32:42,800 Speaker 4: Back yourself, coach yourself, build yourself, be productive in the 700 00:32:42,840 --> 00:32:45,320 Speaker 4: way you speak to yourself. Let go of the old 701 00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:48,800 Speaker 4: narrative like you suck. What's wrong with you? Man, You're 702 00:32:48,800 --> 00:32:51,080 Speaker 4: never going to get this shit done. Like back down 703 00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 4: the critique and the judgment. That does not create a 704 00:32:55,400 --> 00:33:00,680 Speaker 4: sustainable approach to flourishing the fun to what you might 705 00:33:00,720 --> 00:33:01,240 Speaker 4: get the girl. 706 00:33:02,040 --> 00:33:03,520 Speaker 3: You don't need to be hard on your walls. 707 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:06,280 Speaker 4: Yeah, Like you might get good that way, but you're 708 00:33:06,560 --> 00:33:10,280 Speaker 4: not gonna feel very good. Right, So so there is 709 00:33:10,320 --> 00:33:12,480 Speaker 4: a better way, is my point? Right, that's the old 710 00:33:12,480 --> 00:33:14,800 Speaker 4: school way, Like because they didn't really know better, they 711 00:33:14,800 --> 00:33:17,600 Speaker 4: didn't know the science of excellence. The science of excellence 712 00:33:18,000 --> 00:33:22,200 Speaker 4: doesn't point to like just be happy, be positive. It's 713 00:33:22,200 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 4: a productive way of backing yourself with your own self 714 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:29,000 Speaker 4: talk like okay, glad, I figure that out. Now, let's 715 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 4: figure this shit out. Let's go back to the woodshed, 716 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:33,440 Speaker 4: let's go to work. Come on, be honest with yourself, 717 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,040 Speaker 4: get down into it, figure it out. Like you got 718 00:33:36,040 --> 00:33:38,480 Speaker 4: more and you let's go. That's a whole different way 719 00:33:38,480 --> 00:33:42,200 Speaker 4: of speaking to yourself. And like, man, everyone's watching, You're 720 00:33:42,200 --> 00:33:45,120 Speaker 4: gonna look like a fool. This is crazy. What's wrong 721 00:33:45,160 --> 00:33:48,200 Speaker 4: with him? Why get what's what's his problem? What's her problem? 722 00:33:48,320 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 4: Like now we're in the critique game of others and 723 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:54,240 Speaker 4: it's it's just a complicated little mix. So let me 724 00:33:54,320 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 4: just back up virtues and values first. Then hold high standards. 725 00:33:57,960 --> 00:34:01,360 Speaker 4: Then be very clear about how you speak to yourself 726 00:34:01,640 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 4: about approaching those standards. If you're not doing the hard 727 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,600 Speaker 4: work in practice, it doesn't show up in game day 728 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,160 Speaker 4: the way that you would hope. So the messy edge, 729 00:34:11,440 --> 00:34:15,719 Speaker 4: the emotional messy edge in practice is what great athletes 730 00:34:15,800 --> 00:34:18,319 Speaker 4: do consistently, and that's what the rest of us can 731 00:34:18,400 --> 00:34:21,240 Speaker 4: learn from, not just the entertainment of athletics. It's cool, 732 00:34:21,400 --> 00:34:23,680 Speaker 4: don't get me wrong. I love it. But what they 733 00:34:23,719 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 4: do is they fundamentally organize their life in front of 734 00:34:26,719 --> 00:34:29,480 Speaker 4: their peers, their friends, people that are trying to take 735 00:34:29,520 --> 00:34:33,040 Speaker 4: their job, and their coaches, people who decide if they're 736 00:34:33,040 --> 00:34:36,319 Speaker 4: going to play or not. They fundamentally decide that they're 737 00:34:36,320 --> 00:34:38,000 Speaker 4: going to get to the messy edge where it doesn't 738 00:34:38,000 --> 00:34:40,319 Speaker 4: look good. And they do it on Monday, and they 739 00:34:40,360 --> 00:34:43,640 Speaker 4: do it on Wednesday and Thursday and Friday, and then 740 00:34:43,680 --> 00:34:47,000 Speaker 4: Sunday they let it rip. But to look messy and 741 00:34:48,080 --> 00:34:51,000 Speaker 4: dishoveled amongst your friends and peers and people try to 742 00:34:51,000 --> 00:34:52,799 Speaker 4: take your job and coaches that hold the keys to 743 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,480 Speaker 4: your job, to get messy and be a bit of 744 00:34:55,520 --> 00:34:58,640 Speaker 4: a mess there, that's fucking hard to do. And that's 745 00:34:58,680 --> 00:35:01,480 Speaker 4: what the greats do. Push to that edge because there's 746 00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,000 Speaker 4: a purpose, and that purpose can be a narcissistic purpose. 747 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:07,279 Speaker 4: I just want to be my best, or there can 748 00:35:07,320 --> 00:35:10,800 Speaker 4: be a greater purpose. House for them, my parents, homes 749 00:35:10,800 --> 00:35:13,480 Speaker 4: for people that don't have it, shelters for dogs, running 750 00:35:13,520 --> 00:35:16,360 Speaker 4: waters for whatever. Like, if you can upgrade the purpose, 751 00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:19,120 Speaker 4: that the whole thing gets a little bit easier. So anyways, 752 00:35:19,120 --> 00:35:21,720 Speaker 4: I'll stop talking because I get animated about this stuff 753 00:35:21,920 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 4: and I love it. 754 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:25,399 Speaker 3: I appreciate it. And just to let you know we are. 755 00:35:25,760 --> 00:35:27,640 Speaker 2: I only got a couple minutes left, but we're about 756 00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:30,759 Speaker 2: thirty five minutes since that panic attack happened, and your 757 00:35:30,920 --> 00:35:34,520 Speaker 2: everything we talked about has happened. I'm sure it's dried out, 758 00:35:34,520 --> 00:35:37,000 Speaker 2: it's gotten colder, but you can hear everything's kind of 759 00:35:37,239 --> 00:35:37,680 Speaker 2: calm down. 760 00:35:37,719 --> 00:35:39,720 Speaker 3: My breathing has gotten back to normal. 761 00:35:40,080 --> 00:35:42,600 Speaker 2: So more than anything, I want to show you some 762 00:35:42,640 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 2: gratitude for helping me walk through this minefield of anxiety. 763 00:35:48,120 --> 00:35:50,319 Speaker 2: It's really cool and that's that's a special bond, and 764 00:35:50,360 --> 00:35:52,880 Speaker 2: that's you know I always like to share with my people. 765 00:35:52,920 --> 00:35:55,319 Speaker 3: We walked this walk together. I always say, man, walk 766 00:35:55,400 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 3: this walk together. 767 00:35:56,320 --> 00:35:59,080 Speaker 2: And you truly walk that walk with me together right here, 768 00:35:59,080 --> 00:36:00,759 Speaker 2: And I just want to tell you I'm grateful for you. 769 00:36:00,760 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 4: I appreciate it, I appreciate you, and I know we're 770 00:36:03,600 --> 00:36:05,359 Speaker 4: turning home base here. I just want to say one thing. 771 00:36:05,440 --> 00:36:08,600 Speaker 4: I really was looking forward to this conversation with you 772 00:36:08,640 --> 00:36:12,000 Speaker 4: because of the realness, because of the authenticity, the groundedness 773 00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:15,080 Speaker 4: to get to truth. And man, you did not hold 774 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:18,480 Speaker 4: back and I'm so real matter. I can't get more 775 00:36:18,480 --> 00:36:20,440 Speaker 4: real and the second thing is I want you to 776 00:36:20,440 --> 00:36:22,520 Speaker 4: not look. Look you see the shirt, I've got like 777 00:36:22,560 --> 00:36:25,240 Speaker 4: a shirt underneath the shirt. I wore that because sometimes 778 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,719 Speaker 4: I swept during interviews too, and so I had a 779 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:30,719 Speaker 4: second layer. Just okay, so. 780 00:36:32,280 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 3: Just in case, Yeah, that was that was a water. 781 00:36:38,680 --> 00:36:39,319 Speaker 3: That's so cool. 782 00:36:39,600 --> 00:36:41,359 Speaker 2: You don't you know a couple of years ago, you 783 00:36:41,440 --> 00:36:43,000 Speaker 2: never nobody would have talked about this. 784 00:36:43,239 --> 00:36:45,200 Speaker 4: But that's how you're leading the way, Jay, And then 785 00:36:45,239 --> 00:36:48,439 Speaker 4: come on, I appreciate that from the front. 786 00:36:48,600 --> 00:36:52,799 Speaker 2: Hey, these are my scars, are my accomplishments, and you 787 00:36:52,800 --> 00:36:55,000 Speaker 2: know there's just I guess this kind of goes. 788 00:36:54,880 --> 00:36:55,960 Speaker 3: Back to what you're writing about. 789 00:36:56,280 --> 00:36:59,640 Speaker 2: You can't have shame in it, and you know that's 790 00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:03,120 Speaker 2: me taking out the shame means, Hey, I'm I'm not 791 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 2: caring about negative thoughts of what that may bring about 792 00:37:07,040 --> 00:37:09,279 Speaker 2: of me talking about these issues that I have. 793 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:11,840 Speaker 4: One hundred percent. And when we give more value to 794 00:37:11,880 --> 00:37:14,520 Speaker 4: other people's opinions than our own, we live life on 795 00:37:14,640 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 4: their terms, not ours. And so you're showing the way. 796 00:37:18,080 --> 00:37:18,360 Speaker 3: Again. 797 00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:20,200 Speaker 4: Appreciate you, brother. 798 00:37:19,960 --> 00:37:22,839 Speaker 3: I appreciate it so much.

Oh, real quick before I let you go, 802 00:37:30,840 --> 00:37:32,520 Speaker 3: real quick. I never knew this about you. 803 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:35,319 Speaker 2: This is the first book you've written, but you did 804 00:37:35,360 --> 00:37:38,799 Speaker 2: an audiobook with Pete Carroll. Why did you do an 805 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,160 Speaker 2: audio book instead of a written book? 806 00:37:42,640 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 3: I'm just fascinated by it. 807 00:37:44,800 --> 00:37:47,239 Speaker 4: So I just valued the audio form. You know, I've 808 00:37:47,239 --> 00:37:49,799 Speaker 4: got a podcast myself, and I'd really value that. And 809 00:37:49,840 --> 00:37:52,480 Speaker 4: we thought, let's say, let's save some trees, let's go 810 00:37:52,520 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 4: to the audio route. 811 00:37:53,719 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 3: And it was just it. 812 00:37:54,600 --> 00:37:56,799 Speaker 4: Was really fun to be able to do it that way. Yet, 813 00:37:56,880 --> 00:37:59,440 Speaker 4: so that's called compete to create. Uh a guide to 814 00:37:59,520 --> 00:38:03,160 Speaker 4: living authentically? Leading and living authentically? How about it? And 815 00:38:03,200 --> 00:38:05,560 Speaker 4: so yeah, so that's an audio form only. 816 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:06,680 Speaker 3: That's incredible. 817 00:38:06,760 --> 00:38:09,239 Speaker 2: So again, this book right here, folks, go out and 818 00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:11,479 Speaker 2: get it a thready you hit the top ten list. 819 00:38:11,640 --> 00:38:15,920 Speaker 3: The first rule of mastery.
