1 00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:15,960 Speaker 1: Hey, Brack. Okay, this is Brack Costin. I've known him. 2 00:00:16,480 --> 00:00:18,799 Speaker 1: Do you know how long we've known each other, Breck. 3 00:00:18,840 --> 00:00:22,320 Speaker 2: It's probably been close to twenty years at this point. 4 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:25,880 Speaker 1: No more, because I was like thirty thirty one, maybe 5 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:28,760 Speaker 1: even younger anyway, so easily, No, I think it's twenty five. 6 00:00:29,840 --> 00:00:34,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I've never I've never been with time and yeah. 7 00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:37,239 Speaker 1: I think I was like in my early thirties. All right, 8 00:00:37,240 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: So this is Breck Costin. I've known him for years 9 00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,400 Speaker 1: because a group of friends of mine had found this 10 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:47,800 Speaker 1: Freedom course in LA and it was transformative for them, 11 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,680 Speaker 1: and I liked the name Freedom, and I was like 12 00:00:49,960 --> 00:00:52,519 Speaker 1: at a crossroads with a relationship. Yeah, Breck, I think 13 00:00:52,560 --> 00:00:53,960 Speaker 1: it was earlier. It was like in my twenties. 14 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:55,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, and I was. 15 00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:57,880 Speaker 1: So that was like a long time ago, maybe almost 16 00:00:57,920 --> 00:01:00,920 Speaker 1: thirty years ago, and you could probably go back and 17 00:01:00,920 --> 00:01:03,040 Speaker 1: look at the dates. I probably stole my Freedom notebook 18 00:01:03,120 --> 00:01:05,800 Speaker 1: upstairs and I went to this like three day immersive 19 00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:09,000 Speaker 1: experience at Breck and uh learned a language a lot 20 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:11,560 Speaker 1: of people use now that I actually know is because 21 00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 1: of me, which we'll get into. And Breck's sort of 22 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:15,640 Speaker 1: like oblivious to all that like commercial stuff in ways, 23 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,040 Speaker 1: which I like because like he never knows how many 24 00:01:18,080 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: times I use his words, but I do always give 25 00:01:19,959 --> 00:01:23,119 Speaker 1: him credit, but like other people do also. So Breck 26 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:29,600 Speaker 1: is a life coach slash non traditional therapist but not 27 00:01:29,720 --> 00:01:33,279 Speaker 1: like a doctor. And we've known each other for years 28 00:01:33,440 --> 00:01:37,679 Speaker 1: and we talk fairly regularly, and he's a great guy 29 00:01:37,720 --> 00:01:39,760 Speaker 1: and he's had a big life, and I wanted to 30 00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: have him on here. 31 00:01:40,480 --> 00:01:42,520 Speaker 3: I think you came on years ago when I started. 32 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,360 Speaker 2: No, I never came on as podcast. We did you 33 00:01:46,400 --> 00:01:47,480 Speaker 2: when you had your talk show? 34 00:01:47,680 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 3: You didn't. 35 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:50,240 Speaker 1: I think we did, but maybe yeah we did in 36 00:01:50,280 --> 00:01:52,640 Speaker 1: the very beginning, one hundred percent. 37 00:01:52,840 --> 00:01:55,120 Speaker 2: Telling you you know, it's way too long now I 38 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,480 Speaker 2: can't remember apparently, yeah, I. 39 00:01:57,360 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 1: Mean one hundred percent. In the very very beginning we talked. 40 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: So you're in LA and we spoke the other day, 41 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,920 Speaker 1: and I thought that hopefully you'd want to come on more, 42 00:02:08,000 --> 00:02:10,160 Speaker 1: but I'll sort of drive and I wanted to just 43 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:13,519 Speaker 1: like bring up different concepts that we've discussed over the 44 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:15,799 Speaker 1: years that jump off the page to me, and also 45 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,320 Speaker 1: that you probably don't even know that I've discussed the 46 00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:20,600 Speaker 1: people and have jumped off the page with them. So 47 00:02:20,639 --> 00:02:23,480 Speaker 1: like you talk about a million things, but like probably 48 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,399 Speaker 1: the things you wouldn't even think would be the biggest thing. 49 00:02:25,880 --> 00:02:27,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's true. I mean, you know, people will take 50 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:30,160 Speaker 2: away what they think is really relevant and resonates. And 51 00:02:30,200 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: I think we're, you know, as a as a coach 52 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,280 Speaker 2: or just as as a person who's contributing, you're you're 53 00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:39,400 Speaker 2: always looking for different portals and different metaphors and different language, music, 54 00:02:39,480 --> 00:02:42,080 Speaker 2: anything you can that you think will get something from 55 00:02:42,120 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 2: your mouth to someone's ear that will be useful, right, 56 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,440 Speaker 2: like digestible and people respond to you know, two different 57 00:02:48,560 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 2: different image imagery, different music, different rhythms, different metaphors. So 58 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 2: it's kind of figuring out what's what will translate for 59 00:02:55,760 --> 00:02:56,320 Speaker 2: each person. 60 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:58,760 Speaker 1: So I guess we'll go with the biggest ticket item. 61 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,600 Speaker 1: I was going to do charming, which we'll do after 62 00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:03,359 Speaker 1: because it really surprises people in the charming. I had 63 00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:06,360 Speaker 1: a podcast called Charming is a Red Flag and it 64 00:03:06,440 --> 00:03:08,959 Speaker 1: was it was very It had a lot of impact, 65 00:03:08,960 --> 00:03:11,400 Speaker 1: which was shocking because it really people. It spoke to 66 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:13,560 Speaker 1: people because charming is used as something positive. But let 67 00:03:13,560 --> 00:03:15,840 Speaker 1: me just park that for one second. Okay, let's talk 68 00:03:15,880 --> 00:03:20,200 Speaker 1: about noise. Okay, many people use the term noise as 69 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:23,480 Speaker 1: a result of me commercializing the term noise as a 70 00:03:23,520 --> 00:03:26,560 Speaker 1: result of learning it from you at the Freedom course, 71 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: and I took it to another level. You talked about 72 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:33,040 Speaker 1: food noise and money noise, and different people have different 73 00:03:33,120 --> 00:03:38,680 Speaker 1: noise or like talking about someone's particularly noisy in that area. 74 00:03:38,720 --> 00:03:42,600 Speaker 1: And I wrote a book called Naturally Thin about food noise. 75 00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:45,760 Speaker 1: But I've seen people, I've seen on social media other 76 00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 1: people talk about it. They don't even realize that it 77 00:03:47,560 --> 00:03:49,000 Speaker 1: came from me and that it came from you. 78 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:53,720 Speaker 3: So just talk. Let's talk about noise for a little bit, okay. 79 00:03:53,840 --> 00:03:56,880 Speaker 2: So and I like that, you know, I love that. 80 00:03:57,040 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 2: As you said, you know, I kind of think of 81 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:03,080 Speaker 2: myself as being the scenes and not to diminish any 82 00:04:03,080 --> 00:04:05,000 Speaker 2: other coaches or any other people who are in the 83 00:04:05,200 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 2: working in you know, transformational world or in a self 84 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:11,400 Speaker 2: help world, spiritual world. But I just think the contract 85 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:15,480 Speaker 2: really is is that you're you're a source, right, you know, 86 00:04:15,680 --> 00:04:18,080 Speaker 2: you're not the you know, you're not not that you 87 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:21,520 Speaker 2: can't be the mouthpiece for what you're delivering, but you're 88 00:04:21,560 --> 00:04:23,520 Speaker 2: actually the source, and you want other people to be 89 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:26,280 Speaker 2: able to deliver that from their own particular expression, right, 90 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:27,680 Speaker 2: and they make it their own, they take it to 91 00:04:27,720 --> 00:04:30,440 Speaker 2: all other level. So that's always exciting for me when 92 00:04:30,480 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 2: you know, like as you take you know, noise and 93 00:04:33,040 --> 00:04:35,800 Speaker 2: kind of disseminate it so it becomes part of the vernacular, 94 00:04:36,120 --> 00:04:38,640 Speaker 2: part of the culture. Right. I like that. I like 95 00:04:38,839 --> 00:04:40,440 Speaker 2: watching that those kinds of things happen. 96 00:04:40,760 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: They say the best relationships are the rock and the stars. 97 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,760 Speaker 1: So you have many stars that you talk to, but 98 00:04:46,080 --> 00:04:48,320 Speaker 1: like you're they're the star. You're the rock, Like you're 99 00:04:48,360 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: behind the scenes and understanding. 100 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,080 Speaker 2: Like any great team, you understand your position, you know, 101 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 2: and you play your position. And I think a lot 102 00:04:56,000 --> 00:04:57,960 Speaker 2: of times where it's conflicted and I'll get into noise. 103 00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:00,680 Speaker 2: Even from this context, I think for a lot of 104 00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:03,520 Speaker 2: people that they're they're they're so wanting to play a 105 00:05:03,560 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 2: position that they're just not designed for and it's and 106 00:05:07,160 --> 00:05:09,960 Speaker 2: it's just and then and I consider that to be 107 00:05:10,080 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: one of the you know, when you're trying to compete 108 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:14,320 Speaker 2: where you're not competitive, it is it is a source 109 00:05:14,360 --> 00:05:17,599 Speaker 2: of suffering. Wow, it is. And people will spend years 110 00:05:17,600 --> 00:05:19,839 Speaker 2: and years and years trying to squeeze them into something 111 00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:22,880 Speaker 2: that they just weren't designed to do and so, and 112 00:05:22,920 --> 00:05:26,120 Speaker 2: that goes right into noise as well. So noise is 113 00:05:26,160 --> 00:05:30,320 Speaker 2: this very basically it's your really your internal commentary that's 114 00:05:30,600 --> 00:05:32,960 Speaker 2: good or bad. Now, this is what people think, they oh, 115 00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:35,880 Speaker 2: good noise is good. I'm saying no, no good noise. 116 00:05:35,880 --> 00:05:37,840 Speaker 2: You're trying to keep around. Bad noise you're trying to 117 00:05:37,839 --> 00:05:41,120 Speaker 2: get rid of. So it has you either way. It 118 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:42,560 Speaker 2: holds you hostage either way. 119 00:05:42,640 --> 00:05:45,360 Speaker 1: So you're saying, like, the absence of noise is real 120 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 1: true piece. It doesn't matter if it's good or bad. 121 00:05:47,560 --> 00:05:50,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's where freedom and peace is right. And if 122 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 2: you look at when you're the most brilliant, well you're 123 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 2: when you look at where your essence is being fully expressed, 124 00:05:55,120 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 2: and it's the essential you. It's when there's no noise. 125 00:05:58,240 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 2: So that's a singer singing in front of the sea 126 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:02,479 Speaker 2: thousand people and they're not trying to remember their lyrics. 127 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,400 Speaker 2: They're not remembering it. They're connected to the audience. They're 128 00:06:05,440 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 2: expressing themselves there. They don't have like oh man, I'm 129 00:06:08,480 --> 00:06:12,440 Speaker 2: crushing it or I'm you know, or this when badly. 130 00:06:12,760 --> 00:06:15,640 Speaker 1: Meaning like even if it's family noise and you're managing it, 131 00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,600 Speaker 1: you're still having to deal with that. You're thinking about 132 00:06:17,600 --> 00:06:20,760 Speaker 1: it positive, like I got it under control. That's noisy too, 133 00:06:20,880 --> 00:06:21,799 Speaker 1: and bad noises. 134 00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,240 Speaker 2: Yeah, so management, the management of something is even more. 135 00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 2: I kind of think of this as like a feral tiger, Like, 136 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 2: you know, your noise can be running rampant and just 137 00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 2: eating anything that's on the African plane, right, feral, and 138 00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:36,760 Speaker 2: then when it comes up with a solution to a problem, Okay, 139 00:06:36,800 --> 00:06:40,760 Speaker 2: I'll manage this. I'll juste question this animal, this ferocious animal, 140 00:06:40,760 --> 00:06:44,400 Speaker 2: and that just as bad. Right. It's literally like you, 141 00:06:44,800 --> 00:06:47,240 Speaker 2: this is a Siegfried and Roy of noise. Is they 142 00:06:47,279 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 2: know how to work with white tigers, you know they 143 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,719 Speaker 2: they made millions of dollars working with with this, you know. 144 00:06:52,800 --> 00:06:56,360 Speaker 2: So it's a it's understanding. It's understanding how to work 145 00:06:56,520 --> 00:06:59,080 Speaker 2: with you know, your own you know animal. I'll talk 146 00:06:59,120 --> 00:07:01,760 Speaker 2: about survivally noise in that regard as well, but it 147 00:07:01,839 --> 00:07:05,120 Speaker 2: really is understanding that when you are truly there is 148 00:07:05,160 --> 00:07:07,760 Speaker 2: when there's no noise. So that's that's when you, like, 149 00:07:08,160 --> 00:07:11,160 Speaker 2: in this conversation that we're having, if you and I 150 00:07:11,200 --> 00:07:13,120 Speaker 2: were going, God, I hope this is going well. I 151 00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:15,200 Speaker 2: wonder if this is going all right or our internal 152 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,760 Speaker 2: dialogue was like, I'm not sure what to say. It's noisy, Yeah, 153 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:19,760 Speaker 2: it'd be like a noise. 154 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:23,000 Speaker 1: Well, that's funny because in the book Naturally Thin, the 155 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,520 Speaker 1: way that I took it to the next level, which 156 00:07:24,520 --> 00:07:27,600 Speaker 1: I forgot until this exact moment, is I said that 157 00:07:27,600 --> 00:07:30,840 Speaker 1: with people with food, they wanted to turn their noise 158 00:07:30,880 --> 00:07:32,840 Speaker 1: into a voice, like you're having just a conversation. I'm 159 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 1: about to have a meal, and this what I'm gonna 160 00:07:34,440 --> 00:07:37,280 Speaker 1: have versus I was bad, I was good. I ate 161 00:07:37,360 --> 00:07:39,000 Speaker 1: so much so I have to beat myself up and 162 00:07:39,040 --> 00:07:42,640 Speaker 1: eat more or I have to eat nothing like that's managing. 163 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,760 Speaker 1: That's noisy, but just being like okay, chocolate I wanted, 164 00:07:45,800 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 1: and I'm you know, next, I'm doing this like have 165 00:07:47,920 --> 00:07:51,160 Speaker 1: it be like a voice, which to me seemed calmer. 166 00:07:51,920 --> 00:07:54,720 Speaker 2: Well it's not only calmer, but you know it's I'd 167 00:07:54,760 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 2: see this in phases ethany where you kind of like 168 00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:01,040 Speaker 2: are first of all recognizing it's coming out of the eathers. 169 00:08:01,080 --> 00:08:04,240 Speaker 2: You're recognizing it as an internal dialogue rather that's just 170 00:08:04,280 --> 00:08:06,720 Speaker 2: your personality or that's just the way it is. So 171 00:08:06,800 --> 00:08:10,560 Speaker 2: you're seeing some distinction between oh, this isn't me, this 172 00:08:10,600 --> 00:08:13,200 Speaker 2: is the noise in my head. But most people associate 173 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,800 Speaker 2: the noise in their head with them. And when you 174 00:08:15,800 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 2: were your essential you, there's no noise, and it's a 175 00:08:18,560 --> 00:08:22,040 Speaker 2: strange phenomenon, like, oh, when I'm truly being myself, it's 176 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:24,000 Speaker 2: when there's no noise that's happening. 177 00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:26,640 Speaker 3: That's the most meditative state, is being. 178 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 2: Just just there, right, yeah. So, and I think in 179 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:32,200 Speaker 2: a world attempting that right to get to that. So, 180 00:08:32,880 --> 00:08:34,920 Speaker 2: I call that the thing you just mentioned, the cherry 181 00:08:34,920 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 2: pie I made it up as a cherry pye conflict. 182 00:08:37,840 --> 00:08:39,680 Speaker 2: And that is like, okay, you got to you got 183 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:43,280 Speaker 2: to lunch, you got to dinner. And the waiter says, okay, 184 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 2: would you like dessert and says with a cherry pie? 185 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 2: Person goes no, you know, no, I'm not going to 186 00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:52,719 Speaker 2: have any cherry pie, and so and and he goes 187 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:54,319 Speaker 2: ask again, do you want any cherry pie? And verse 188 00:08:54,320 --> 00:08:57,280 Speaker 2: says no, I don't want a cherry pie. And so 189 00:08:57,400 --> 00:08:58,800 Speaker 2: throughout the day you're like, hey, you know I didn't 190 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:00,240 Speaker 2: eat that cherry pie. I didn't needt the cherry pie 191 00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:01,680 Speaker 2: at all. You know, you didn't have the cherry pie. 192 00:09:01,800 --> 00:09:05,240 Speaker 2: But you're still being dominated by cherry pie, when whether 193 00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 2: you ate it or not. 194 00:09:06,600 --> 00:09:08,160 Speaker 1: You should have just had yeah, take up by a 195 00:09:08,160 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: couple of bites of it. Yeah, that's funny. 196 00:09:10,640 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 2: Whether you ate it or not. That's noisy yet and 197 00:09:12,840 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 2: that's what noise looks like. 198 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:17,560 Speaker 1: Well, also, I want to tell everyone that and we 199 00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:19,760 Speaker 1: can move to something else because I think they maybe 200 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:22,200 Speaker 1: get it. But like that when Breck introduced it to me, 201 00:09:22,200 --> 00:09:23,719 Speaker 1: because we're talking about thirty years ago. But I have 202 00:09:23,800 --> 00:09:26,040 Speaker 1: a crazy memory for the stuff. You've taught so many 203 00:09:26,040 --> 00:09:28,360 Speaker 1: different things and talked about so many different things. But 204 00:09:28,440 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 1: I want to like take people back to what I 205 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:34,760 Speaker 1: learned that He talked about how each person has different 206 00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:39,480 Speaker 1: Someone could have religion, noise, food, noise, money, noise, age, noise, vanity, noise, 207 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,079 Speaker 1: like it could be anything. It could be all the 208 00:09:41,120 --> 00:09:44,160 Speaker 1: seven deadly sins. It's just you could be noisy about something. 209 00:09:45,040 --> 00:09:46,600 Speaker 1: It could be it could be anything, right, Like, it 210 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 1: could be the Emperor has no clothes or I'm not 211 00:09:48,559 --> 00:09:51,360 Speaker 1: I'm even someone has billion dollars. They could still think 212 00:09:51,360 --> 00:09:52,199 Speaker 1: they're gonna lose it all. 213 00:09:52,400 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 2: Oh no, no, that happens. I mean, have a lot 214 00:09:54,320 --> 00:09:56,000 Speaker 2: of clients just like you know, who have you know, 215 00:09:56,280 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 2: story amount of money, and there they can be the 216 00:09:58,040 --> 00:09:58,760 Speaker 2: most terrified. 217 00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:02,040 Speaker 1: Okay, so that that's overall. Noise can be different for 218 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:03,000 Speaker 1: every single person. 219 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:06,600 Speaker 2: But the goal It doesn't mean that noise doesn't produce. 220 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:10,360 Speaker 2: It doesn't mean that it can't produce, meaning like you 221 00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: can make a ton of money in a certain area. Right. 222 00:10:14,400 --> 00:10:17,720 Speaker 2: But the thing is is that it mostly where you 223 00:10:17,800 --> 00:10:20,079 Speaker 2: have no noise is where you're the most created, most 224 00:10:20,280 --> 00:10:25,040 Speaker 2: most of alved, most accomplished, most you know, most evolutionary. Right. 225 00:10:25,480 --> 00:10:28,319 Speaker 1: Well, that's interesting, Okay, So this is why that's interesting 226 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:32,520 Speaker 1: to me because usually the thing that the person's most 227 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,280 Speaker 1: obsessed with, you've called that their plates of wounding, the 228 00:10:35,320 --> 00:10:38,079 Speaker 1: thing that they're thinking about the most, is the thing 229 00:10:38,080 --> 00:10:41,320 Speaker 1: that isn't coming naturally to them. And I also think 230 00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:43,880 Speaker 1: that like between sleep and wake is when all my 231 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 1: best ideas come, and when I'm the most relaxed, is 232 00:10:46,240 --> 00:10:49,840 Speaker 1: when my amazing like ideas they just come to solve 233 00:10:49,880 --> 00:10:51,199 Speaker 1: a problem that I've had forever. 234 00:10:51,760 --> 00:10:54,720 Speaker 3: And that's quiet, it's literally quiet. 235 00:10:55,480 --> 00:10:58,880 Speaker 2: Well, yeah, you can't you can't solve you know, certainly, 236 00:10:59,559 --> 00:11:02,480 Speaker 2: you know you can can't be creative or innovative or 237 00:11:02,600 --> 00:11:06,560 Speaker 2: generative when fear or shame is dominating, right, It's it's 238 00:11:06,559 --> 00:11:09,880 Speaker 2: a it's a threat, right, So why I say it 239 00:11:09,920 --> 00:11:14,120 Speaker 2: can it can produce? It means that someone can can 240 00:11:14,280 --> 00:11:17,920 Speaker 2: start like they're there, can start start their mote or 241 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:19,680 Speaker 2: their engine. In terms of I don't want to be 242 00:11:19,800 --> 00:11:21,800 Speaker 2: like that. I'm going to change my circumstances. I'm going 243 00:11:21,840 --> 00:11:26,120 Speaker 2: to drive something, right. So, like the difference between ambition 244 00:11:26,240 --> 00:11:29,160 Speaker 2: and invention is you can start something from a place 245 00:11:29,200 --> 00:11:31,719 Speaker 2: of noise, right, you can. It can kick off from 246 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:33,480 Speaker 2: place like I don't want to be like my dad. 247 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:34,559 Speaker 2: I don't want to be like my mom, and I 248 00:11:34,600 --> 00:11:36,080 Speaker 2: don't want to live like this. I want to do 249 00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:39,360 Speaker 2: something from a reactive place. But in order for it 250 00:11:39,400 --> 00:11:41,960 Speaker 2: to fulfill and move, it's got to move into an 251 00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:45,600 Speaker 2: evolutionary creative place where it's not driven drop driven from 252 00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:49,600 Speaker 2: that that source. So we're all we're always looking at 253 00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,240 Speaker 2: at you know, what is it that? What is it 254 00:11:52,280 --> 00:11:55,480 Speaker 2: that has us? And what is it that we have right? 255 00:11:55,679 --> 00:11:57,920 Speaker 2: And what is holding us hostage? And what do I 256 00:11:57,960 --> 00:12:02,280 Speaker 2: actually have? So today you know, or just riddled with anxiety, right, 257 00:12:02,320 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 2: And anxiety is I mean just kind of globally anxiety 258 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,439 Speaker 2: is trying to get control of something of no control 259 00:12:08,480 --> 00:12:11,520 Speaker 2: over right, and so people come up with tons of 260 00:12:11,559 --> 00:12:12,720 Speaker 2: solutions to that. 261 00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:15,680 Speaker 1: Like you're you're saying, because you talk about this with 262 00:12:15,760 --> 00:12:20,520 Speaker 1: charm too, anxiety has us and you say that charm 263 00:12:20,720 --> 00:12:24,880 Speaker 1: has people too, Like, so go into like how these 264 00:12:24,880 --> 00:12:28,280 Speaker 1: things are having us, Like we're going to that because 265 00:12:28,280 --> 00:12:28,880 Speaker 1: I think that's interesting. 266 00:12:28,960 --> 00:12:29,959 Speaker 3: Most people don't say that. 267 00:12:30,559 --> 00:12:34,320 Speaker 2: Okay, so when I say someone can be productive, I'm 268 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:39,160 Speaker 2: saying that they don't know that. People don't distinguish out enough. 269 00:12:40,120 --> 00:12:41,680 Speaker 2: You know, what is it, you know where they have 270 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:44,040 Speaker 2: noise and no noise, so it just looks like, oh, 271 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:47,439 Speaker 2: I if that I'm being manic here, and I'm going, well, no, 272 00:12:47,520 --> 00:12:50,000 Speaker 2: you're actually not being manic there. You know here you're 273 00:12:50,040 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 2: pretty freed up. Here you're manic and you're collapsing both 274 00:12:52,960 --> 00:12:56,360 Speaker 2: of those those things. So someone could be have their 275 00:12:56,440 --> 00:12:59,480 Speaker 2: craft just to kind of finish that up. Their craft 276 00:12:59,520 --> 00:13:01,439 Speaker 2: could be straordinary, like they be able to play the 277 00:13:01,440 --> 00:13:04,840 Speaker 2: guitar brilliantly. They can do that, but their career is noisy, 278 00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 2: so they never fulfill in their career. But they could 279 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,599 Speaker 2: be the best, the best guitarist in the world, and 280 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:12,560 Speaker 2: people understand, what if I'm really great at this, How 281 00:13:12,600 --> 00:13:15,040 Speaker 2: come this isn't fulfilling? And some it could be mediocre 282 00:13:15,800 --> 00:13:19,240 Speaker 2: in their craft, but really freed up in their career, right, 283 00:13:19,320 --> 00:13:22,199 Speaker 2: meaning they have all this room to make mistakes, to fail, 284 00:13:22,320 --> 00:13:26,400 Speaker 2: to lose, to move right. And so you know, watching, 285 00:13:26,559 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 2: you know, watching where things produce and how they produce, 286 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:33,160 Speaker 2: you know, is my entire kind of work, right, Like 287 00:13:33,200 --> 00:13:35,199 Speaker 2: what is what is it that has someone to be effective, 288 00:13:35,520 --> 00:13:38,280 Speaker 2: you know in a particular way. So the question that 289 00:13:38,320 --> 00:13:44,119 Speaker 2: you're asking is, I consider identities. I look at identities, 290 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:45,600 Speaker 2: and the identity is a way you want to be 291 00:13:45,640 --> 00:13:48,280 Speaker 2: seen or a way you do not want to be seen. Right, 292 00:13:48,640 --> 00:13:50,959 Speaker 2: So I want to I might want to be seen 293 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:52,720 Speaker 2: as smart. I can't be seen as stupid. I want 294 00:13:52,760 --> 00:13:54,160 Speaker 2: to be seen as a tractor. I can't be seen 295 00:13:54,160 --> 00:13:56,240 Speaker 2: as ugly. I obn to see this as powerful. They 296 00:13:56,280 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: can't be seen as weak. 297 00:13:57,600 --> 00:13:59,559 Speaker 1: I feel like you used to call that image. Also, 298 00:13:59,760 --> 00:14:01,120 Speaker 1: is that you're saying that's the same. 299 00:14:01,400 --> 00:14:03,640 Speaker 2: Well I did. It was it was a It may 300 00:14:03,760 --> 00:14:07,480 Speaker 2: had a much broader context, okay, right, but the identity 301 00:14:07,520 --> 00:14:10,040 Speaker 2: is very specific. You know. We walk around, you know, 302 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:12,240 Speaker 2: wanting to be seen in a particular way. And if 303 00:14:12,240 --> 00:14:17,479 Speaker 2: we're not seen in a particular way, we get reactive, threatened, disconsolate, 304 00:14:17,640 --> 00:14:21,120 Speaker 2: something like that. So I always consider that identities have you, 305 00:14:22,200 --> 00:14:25,720 Speaker 2: qualities and characteristics you have. So this is there to 306 00:14:25,760 --> 00:14:29,640 Speaker 2: your point about Charmin. So you could have an identity 307 00:14:29,880 --> 00:14:32,840 Speaker 2: of loyal like you need to be seen as a 308 00:14:32,840 --> 00:14:36,280 Speaker 2: loyal person. That's an identity, right, So you're loyal to 309 00:14:36,320 --> 00:14:39,120 Speaker 2: a fault, steal, stay in situations long after you should, 310 00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:42,840 Speaker 2: you don't get out fast enough. You ally yourself to 311 00:14:42,920 --> 00:14:45,640 Speaker 2: things you shouldn't because you've got a dysfunction, so you're 312 00:14:45,680 --> 00:14:48,680 Speaker 2: not seeing things correctly. It's loyal to a fault is problematic. 313 00:14:49,120 --> 00:14:52,960 Speaker 1: Yep, agreed. And that's almost like the obligation to a fault. 314 00:14:52,960 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: When people constantly have to go, they always have to 315 00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:58,480 Speaker 1: show up, it feels disingenuous, like they're doing it to 316 00:14:58,560 --> 00:14:59,320 Speaker 1: check the box. 317 00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:04,760 Speaker 2: So with regards to loyalty as a characteristic equality, that's 318 00:15:04,800 --> 00:15:08,080 Speaker 2: different than an identity. I mean you have loyalty, Loyalty 319 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:11,040 Speaker 2: doesn't have you. So you can be loyal to the 320 00:15:11,080 --> 00:15:16,080 Speaker 2: appropriate situations, you can exit situations appropriately, and you can 321 00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:18,400 Speaker 2: be disloyal if you have loyal I mean I'm not 322 00:15:18,400 --> 00:15:20,240 Speaker 2: going to be loyal to someone who's saying, you know, 323 00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:23,200 Speaker 2: an asshole or someone who's doing this. Right, But you 324 00:15:23,280 --> 00:15:26,080 Speaker 2: can't be disloyal if loyalty to a fault has you. 325 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,440 Speaker 2: So that is true for everything. So it could be 326 00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 2: so everything to be positive or negative depending on the context. 327 00:15:47,360 --> 00:15:52,280 Speaker 1: Okay, so talk about obligation, because everybody that's listening is 328 00:15:52,360 --> 00:15:54,840 Speaker 1: doing a bunch of things they don't actually want to 329 00:15:54,880 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: be doing. And I do many things for other people, 330 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:02,120 Speaker 1: but I don't do anything anywhere that I don't want 331 00:16:02,160 --> 00:16:02,520 Speaker 1: to do. 332 00:16:02,800 --> 00:16:04,880 Speaker 3: And I think that's jarring, and I. 333 00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:08,000 Speaker 2: That's revolution that's this almost is like you now we're 334 00:16:08,040 --> 00:16:10,520 Speaker 2: talking kind of like graduate school in terms of self help, 335 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 2: just because it really is such a revolutionary concept because 336 00:16:16,240 --> 00:16:19,680 Speaker 2: it looks completely selfish. Yes, because someone says, but what 337 00:16:19,760 --> 00:16:22,960 Speaker 2: looks what looks one way to the culture might be 338 00:16:23,120 --> 00:16:29,360 Speaker 2: entirely different to what's actually true. Right. So if someone 339 00:16:30,200 --> 00:16:32,560 Speaker 2: is saying, oh, you you know, you never do anything, 340 00:16:32,640 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 2: you know, obligatorily, and I go and I say, yeah, 341 00:16:35,200 --> 00:16:38,400 Speaker 2: I don't, and they go, well, that's just completely selfish. 342 00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:41,600 Speaker 2: I go, well, actually know it's selfless because who wants 343 00:16:41,600 --> 00:16:44,720 Speaker 2: someone around who's doing something as they're a pain in 344 00:16:44,760 --> 00:16:47,480 Speaker 2: the ass. They're doing it for you. They're sanctimonious about it, 345 00:16:47,520 --> 00:16:50,600 Speaker 2: they're self righteous about it, and that's not yielding anything. 346 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,720 Speaker 2: It's no benefit to any right. 347 00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:56,080 Speaker 1: I don't like when people count who gave a gift 348 00:16:56,120 --> 00:16:58,040 Speaker 1: to give a gift back. I don't want any gifts. 349 00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:01,200 Speaker 1: I have one, no gifts. Gifts giving is literally my 350 00:17:01,240 --> 00:17:04,760 Speaker 1: love language. I don't want any because I'm not giving 351 00:17:04,800 --> 00:17:06,399 Speaker 1: a gift because I want something back or because I 352 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 1: got something. They have nothing to do with each other, 353 00:17:07,960 --> 00:17:10,320 Speaker 1: and it irritates me when I hear someone, well, can 354 00:17:10,359 --> 00:17:11,800 Speaker 1: you believe they came to the wedding and they only 355 00:17:11,800 --> 00:17:12,200 Speaker 1: did whatever? 356 00:17:12,800 --> 00:17:14,159 Speaker 3: Who gives a shit that? 357 00:17:14,320 --> 00:17:14,399 Speaker 2: So? 358 00:17:14,640 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 1: I hate that shit. I hate counting. That's the opposite 359 00:17:17,680 --> 00:17:18,920 Speaker 1: of being a good person. 360 00:17:19,480 --> 00:17:22,520 Speaker 2: An obligation can can just like you said that, it 361 00:17:22,600 --> 00:17:27,800 Speaker 2: can trans can translate to many many situations. It can 362 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:31,320 Speaker 2: go to It can go to gift giving. It can 363 00:17:31,359 --> 00:17:35,720 Speaker 2: go to emotional context like I love you. I didn't 364 00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:38,360 Speaker 2: hear it back, right, You're obligated to say it back, 365 00:17:38,359 --> 00:17:38,600 Speaker 2: so it. 366 00:17:38,520 --> 00:17:41,000 Speaker 3: Can be I agree with that too, that's so ridiculous. 367 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,240 Speaker 2: It can be on emotional context, it can be in 368 00:17:43,280 --> 00:17:47,119 Speaker 2: a physical context. Obligation can translate to many many different situations. 369 00:17:47,440 --> 00:17:51,880 Speaker 2: So obligation, you know, to live a life obligation free, right, 370 00:17:52,000 --> 00:17:54,359 Speaker 2: meaning you know, I'm only going to do things that 371 00:17:55,880 --> 00:17:57,879 Speaker 2: I want to do, and I'm only going to do 372 00:17:58,000 --> 00:17:59,760 Speaker 2: things that I say I'm gonna do or I'm not 373 00:17:59,760 --> 00:18:03,160 Speaker 2: going to do them, right, And you know, like when 374 00:18:03,160 --> 00:18:04,720 Speaker 2: someone goes, well, what if your wife asks you to 375 00:18:04,760 --> 00:18:06,800 Speaker 2: do something to me, I go, that's usually my pleasure. 376 00:18:07,000 --> 00:18:08,200 Speaker 2: You know, I want to do something for it. 377 00:18:08,280 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: It's not an obligation, right, right, but you may not 378 00:18:11,440 --> 00:18:13,760 Speaker 1: totally want to do that thing, but you want to 379 00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:14,320 Speaker 1: do like. 380 00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:16,040 Speaker 2: But you want to do that for them because you 381 00:18:16,040 --> 00:18:16,560 Speaker 2: know it'll. 382 00:18:16,400 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 3: Like yess what I'm saying, yes exactly. 383 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 2: So that's for people get stuck.

She goes, Okay, so 389 00:18:34,640 --> 00:18:36,919 Speaker 2: it's it's gonna be as simple as that, and then 390 00:18:36,960 --> 00:18:39,880 Speaker 2: they get done you know down the road right where 391 00:18:39,920 --> 00:18:41,640 Speaker 2: it's kind of something you want to do, but it's 392 00:18:41,680 --> 00:18:43,280 Speaker 2: like literally simple. 393 00:18:43,320 --> 00:18:45,359 Speaker 1: Well no if she lets that go a couple of 394 00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:47,439 Speaker 1: times and it is like says to you like it 395 00:18:47,440 --> 00:18:49,119 Speaker 1: would be nice if you did them, but doesn't give 396 00:18:49,160 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: you damage. 397 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,080 Speaker 3: Next time you might want to do them. 398 00:18:51,119 --> 00:18:54,080 Speaker 1: It's kind of like this weekend, I was with someone 399 00:18:54,200 --> 00:18:57,479 Speaker 1: that I care about and I was exhausted, and I 400 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:00,119 Speaker 1: just I am always activated, but I'm when I do 401 00:19:00,200 --> 00:19:02,440 Speaker 1: a lot of things that involve other people, I really 402 00:19:02,520 --> 00:19:05,080 Speaker 1: need to restore. And it could be like organizing sweaters, 403 00:19:05,160 --> 00:19:07,000 Speaker 1: or like looking at lip gloss or just staring at 404 00:19:07,040 --> 00:19:07,320 Speaker 1: the TV. 405 00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 3: I just need to be. 406 00:19:08,440 --> 00:19:11,640 Speaker 1: Alone ish, or like wandering in a house with someone 407 00:19:11,680 --> 00:19:13,240 Speaker 1: else there, but not like a you know, in an 408 00:19:13,280 --> 00:19:16,080 Speaker 1: obligation mode.

And I said, I first just 415 00:19:32,080 --> 00:19:33,720 Speaker 1: want to know if you care if I go or not, 416 00:19:33,840 --> 00:19:35,600 Speaker 1: Like I just want to know where you stand with it. 417 00:19:35,960 --> 00:19:37,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the question. I was to say, is 418 00:19:37,640 --> 00:19:38,920 Speaker 2: this important to you that I go? 419 00:19:39,560 --> 00:19:40,800 Speaker 3: Like do you care? Like how much? 420 00:19:40,800 --> 00:19:42,240 Speaker 1: On a one to ten because all of sudden you're 421 00:19:42,240 --> 00:19:44,800 Speaker 1: not communicating and you just say yes and then you 422 00:19:44,840 --> 00:19:46,879 Speaker 1: resent it or you say no and they resent that 423 00:19:46,960 --> 00:19:48,520 Speaker 1: you said no, even though they didn't really care. 424 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:50,080 Speaker 3: But it was the way that it was discussed. 425 00:19:50,119 --> 00:19:52,800 Speaker 1: I said, listen, you, if it's really important to you, 426 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: then we should discuss that. I wasn't even ready to 427 00:19:55,119 --> 00:19:56,600 Speaker 1: go yet. I just was ready to say, if it's 428 00:19:56,600 --> 00:19:59,960 Speaker 1: really important, you should discuss that. I on my own 429 00:20:00,160 --> 00:20:02,680 Speaker 1: vacuum don't want to go, but like, if it's really 430 00:20:02,720 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: important to you, because as a family member, that's a discussion. 431 00:20:05,680 --> 00:20:07,080 Speaker 1: And then he was like it's really not and I 432 00:20:07,119 --> 00:20:08,879 Speaker 1: was like, okay, great, I really don't want to go. 433 00:20:09,320 --> 00:20:12,040 Speaker 1: And then later he was gone for like three hours 434 00:20:12,040 --> 00:20:14,240 Speaker 1: and he was worried that it was too long, and 435 00:20:14,280 --> 00:20:16,920 Speaker 1: that became a I'm like, no, like not to make 436 00:20:16,960 --> 00:20:19,760 Speaker 1: you feel bad. You could go for five hours like 437 00:20:19,920 --> 00:20:21,680 Speaker 1: I you know, I want eventually I want you to 438 00:20:21,680 --> 00:20:23,440 Speaker 1: come back and not be But it's like that kind 439 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:25,600 Speaker 1: of stuff. It like frees you up because you could 440 00:20:25,680 --> 00:20:28,040 Speaker 1: really go on the wrong road. You could go and 441 00:20:28,080 --> 00:20:28,720 Speaker 1: resent it. 442 00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 2: First of all, you're always looking to maintain like you're 443 00:20:32,160 --> 00:20:35,480 Speaker 2: now talking relationships, so you're talking, so you always are 444 00:20:35,520 --> 00:20:39,640 Speaker 2: looking to maintain the affinity of the connection, the love 445 00:20:39,760 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 2: connection and the relationship. That's kind of like the intention, right, 446 00:20:43,640 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 2: and in between fights and disagreements and you don't feel 447 00:20:47,119 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 2: appreciated or whatever people's issues are, you know, that can 448 00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 2: be that can that can get threatened that affinity, right, 449 00:20:54,160 --> 00:20:57,199 Speaker 2: So those kinds of conversations of like, well is this 450 00:20:57,280 --> 00:21:00,399 Speaker 2: important to you? No, it's not, okay, then I'm not 451 00:21:00,440 --> 00:21:03,560 Speaker 2: going to go, and it maintains the affinity in the 452 00:21:03,640 --> 00:21:07,040 Speaker 2: relationship rather than I'm just not going right. 453 00:21:07,520 --> 00:21:10,399 Speaker 1: No, you're right, or like going and resenting. I do 454 00:21:10,560 --> 00:21:12,960 Speaker 1: ask a lot if something's important, Because someone said to 455 00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:14,520 Speaker 1: me years ago, Dennis, who you knew, He said, if 456 00:21:14,560 --> 00:21:16,720 Speaker 1: it's important to you, it's important to me. He didn't 457 00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:18,400 Speaker 1: act that way, but I liked the sentence. 458 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 2: I do too, and I like and I like that too. 459 00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 2: So it's obligation. So you live a life obligation free, right, 460 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,920 Speaker 2: So you take away the victim. That's really what you're doing, 461 00:21:26,960 --> 00:21:29,280 Speaker 2: because a victim is somewhere something or someone. 462 00:21:29,200 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 3: Smarter like the marthing, or someone's. 463 00:21:31,400 --> 00:21:33,280 Speaker 2: Doing something to you. You take away the victim in 464 00:21:33,320 --> 00:21:37,000 Speaker 2: the conversation, right, and then we so get into those 465 00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:40,680 Speaker 2: habits of acting like victims and situations and and living 466 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:44,320 Speaker 2: life implication free. So obligation and implication free are like 467 00:21:44,840 --> 00:21:47,320 Speaker 2: implication free means you know what it means about you. 468 00:21:47,320 --> 00:21:48,879 Speaker 2: If I do this, I'm a good person. If I 469 00:21:48,920 --> 00:21:51,160 Speaker 2: don't do this, I'm a bad person. Right, And people 470 00:21:51,240 --> 00:21:53,000 Speaker 2: live mostly obligatorily. 471 00:21:53,200 --> 00:21:54,800 Speaker 1: No, they want and they check the butt, they want 472 00:21:54,800 --> 00:21:57,199 Speaker 1: the scorecard. It's counting, which is the opposite of a 473 00:21:57,200 --> 00:21:58,840 Speaker 1: good relationship, is counting anything. 474 00:21:59,200 --> 00:22:02,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you're looking to live a life you know, obligation free, 475 00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:06,639 Speaker 2: implication free, and you're more generous, you're more creative, you're 476 00:22:06,680 --> 00:22:10,080 Speaker 2: more connected, you're more communication and you have less noise 477 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:10,600 Speaker 2: in your head. 478 00:22:10,800 --> 00:22:11,200 Speaker 3: Bravo. 479 00:22:11,400 --> 00:22:14,680 Speaker 1: So we've accomplished. Okay, let's get into charm. So tell 480 00:22:14,680 --> 00:22:16,080 Speaker 1: me about charming. I'm eating a little bite of my 481 00:22:16,080 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: snack because I have very breafacet let's talk about charming. 482 00:22:19,560 --> 00:22:22,639 Speaker 2: So you know, when someone says and usually charm is 483 00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,600 Speaker 2: associated with you know, men or masculine. Let's call it 484 00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:26,679 Speaker 2: that way, you know, can take it. 485 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:28,760 Speaker 3: Wow, yeah, right, so explain that. 486 00:22:29,119 --> 00:22:32,720 Speaker 2: Yeah. So you know, we don't usually say the woman's charming. 487 00:22:32,760 --> 00:22:35,200 Speaker 2: We will use a different term for that. You know, oh, god, 488 00:22:35,240 --> 00:22:38,719 Speaker 2: she's really gracious, or she's really soak, you know, sweet, 489 00:22:38,760 --> 00:22:42,400 Speaker 2: like all kinds of different things.

Wow, so and and it and it 542 00:25:17,880 --> 00:25:21,120 Speaker 2: becomes an addiction like anything else. That's why age can 543 00:25:21,119 --> 00:25:24,360 Speaker 2: be really challenging for people as they you know, as 544 00:25:24,359 --> 00:25:26,199 Speaker 2: they fall and they don't have the same skills, they 545 00:25:26,240 --> 00:25:30,359 Speaker 2: don't do the same resources that they had. So what 546 00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:33,439 Speaker 2: I all say to women, and women will say this 547 00:25:33,680 --> 00:25:38,359 Speaker 2: right as well, is if you see someone who's particularly charming, 548 00:25:38,600 --> 00:25:39,479 Speaker 2: run for the hills. 549 00:25:39,720 --> 00:25:42,960 Speaker 3: I literally called the podcast charming is a red flag. 550 00:25:43,359 --> 00:25:46,639 Speaker 2: Yeah, so run for the hills because in two years 551 00:25:46,680 --> 00:25:50,359 Speaker 2: you're gonna hate this God, You're gonna hate, You're gonna go, 552 00:25:50,440 --> 00:25:51,640 Speaker 2: I'm gonna kill this guy. 553 00:25:51,560 --> 00:25:54,840 Speaker 1: The very thing that you found so fascinating that the stick, 554 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,159 Speaker 1: this bit is gonna make you sick, it. 555 00:25:57,080 --> 00:25:58,879 Speaker 2: Is, and in two years you're gonna be out of 556 00:25:58,880 --> 00:26:02,199 Speaker 2: your mind. Right. So I say I say this to 557 00:26:02,240 --> 00:26:05,359 Speaker 2: women when women go, you know, I'm marrying my yoga instructor. 558 00:26:05,400 --> 00:26:07,479 Speaker 2: I go. Just because he can put his you know, 559 00:26:07,720 --> 00:26:11,240 Speaker 2: legs around his head doesn't mean that he's got emotional flexibility. 560 00:26:11,359 --> 00:26:13,800 Speaker 2: Don't confuse those two, right. I'm not saying he doesn't. 561 00:26:14,200 --> 00:26:16,680 Speaker 2: I'm saying that those are different phenomenas. There's a different 562 00:26:16,720 --> 00:26:21,800 Speaker 2: photomen beeing spiritual evolution, creative evolution, emotional evolution, right, and 563 00:26:21,920 --> 00:26:24,479 Speaker 2: these things so a lot of times, and that can 564 00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:27,800 Speaker 2: be a highly seductive thing for you know, and and 565 00:26:28,200 --> 00:26:33,080 Speaker 2: dating charms. So I'm saying most men, other men who 566 00:26:33,480 --> 00:26:36,800 Speaker 2: so who have integrity, you know, a sense of themselves 567 00:26:36,880 --> 00:26:38,320 Speaker 2: and a sense of you know, kind of a moral 568 00:26:38,320 --> 00:26:40,439 Speaker 2: compass in terms of who they are and what they are, 569 00:26:40,440 --> 00:26:42,359 Speaker 2: and they don't need all that feedback. They have a 570 00:26:42,400 --> 00:26:47,040 Speaker 2: stronger sense themselves, they can have charm. So meaning you 571 00:26:47,080 --> 00:26:50,159 Speaker 2: can have charm from a context of integrity, right, But 572 00:26:50,200 --> 00:26:53,919 Speaker 2: if charm is your whole story, that's where it's problematic. 573 00:26:54,000 --> 00:26:56,000 Speaker 3: It's owning you, it's wearing you. 574 00:26:56,359 --> 00:26:58,720 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's what it has you your dow'n have it. 575 00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:02,000 Speaker 2: So it doesn't mean you can have charm. It just can't. 576 00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:03,480 Speaker 2: It's got to be like anything. You've got to be 577 00:27:03,480 --> 00:27:04,920 Speaker 2: able to pick it up and put it down and 578 00:27:05,000 --> 00:27:07,200 Speaker 2: use it, and it's got to be more more mobile 579 00:27:07,200 --> 00:27:10,760 Speaker 2: in play in all that way. And most men who 580 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:14,440 Speaker 2: have integrity and have a great deal of respect dismiss charm. 581 00:27:14,840 --> 00:27:17,080 Speaker 2: They'll see other men and they'll they'll dismiss it because 582 00:27:17,119 --> 00:27:19,880 Speaker 2: they can smell like it's it's self centered, it's narcissistic, 583 00:27:20,200 --> 00:27:22,320 Speaker 2: it's it's superficial, it doesn't. 584 00:27:22,000 --> 00:27:25,200 Speaker 3: Have enough weight love it wow. 585 00:27:25,560 --> 00:27:27,359 Speaker 2: And so you've got to be interested. And this is 586 00:27:27,400 --> 00:27:30,920 Speaker 2: always the game, you know, for me, loss is always 587 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,760 Speaker 2: the game that you're willing to lose what you considered 588 00:27:33,840 --> 00:27:37,239 Speaker 2: maybe your most important asset for the possibility of your 589 00:27:37,280 --> 00:27:37,840 Speaker 2: own evolution. 590 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:41,520 Speaker 1: Well, it's funny you say that, because the way I 591 00:27:41,520 --> 00:27:44,280 Speaker 1: think of it is things that you're good for and 592 00:27:44,320 --> 00:27:46,800 Speaker 1: things that are good for you. So I used to 593 00:27:47,119 --> 00:27:49,119 Speaker 1: remember friends of our Shannon, et cetera. I used to 594 00:27:49,119 --> 00:27:52,440 Speaker 1: produce events, large scale events, multimillion dollar events, the Grammy's, 595 00:27:52,480 --> 00:27:55,760 Speaker 1: the Emmys, on the Rock, Alcatraz. No one was ever 596 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:57,480 Speaker 1: better at it than I was. No one you could 597 00:27:57,480 --> 00:27:59,439 Speaker 1: ask the woman who ran all the events at Disney. 598 00:27:59,600 --> 00:28:02,080 Speaker 1: My bodyline was perfect, my P and L sheet, I 599 00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:05,480 Speaker 1: missed not a detail I didn't. I picked up every floral, 600 00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:06,640 Speaker 1: like every chair, like. 601 00:28:06,760 --> 00:28:08,800 Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, that makes that make perfect sense. 602 00:28:08,720 --> 00:28:12,840 Speaker 1: Because I'm sick like so. But I was great for it. 603 00:28:12,840 --> 00:28:15,639 Speaker 1: It wasn't great for me. So I had to be 604 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,320 Speaker 1: like you know, and that's what goes on in my 605 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:19,480 Speaker 1: work every day. Things that I'm good at, and my 606 00:28:19,520 --> 00:28:21,600 Speaker 1: whole entire team relies on me for all the details 607 00:28:21,640 --> 00:28:24,080 Speaker 1: in the detail of every video and every caption and 608 00:28:24,200 --> 00:28:26,440 Speaker 1: all the weeds because I'm amazing at them, but they're 609 00:28:26,440 --> 00:28:28,679 Speaker 1: not good for me. And it's like a discipline for 610 00:28:28,680 --> 00:28:31,600 Speaker 1: the people around me. Like you guys cannot come to 611 00:28:31,680 --> 00:28:34,600 Speaker 1: Mommy for every single question otherwise I cannot do what 612 00:28:34,640 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: I need to do in my business. 613 00:28:35,680 --> 00:28:36,520 Speaker 3: It's not good for me. 614 00:28:37,160 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: So that's sort of my like cross to bear is 615 00:28:40,760 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 1: what I'm good for, but what's not good for me? 616 00:28:44,760 --> 00:28:46,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, and those are those are and there they can 617 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:49,400 Speaker 2: be very different, right they can. They can be very 618 00:28:49,520 --> 00:28:53,720 Speaker 2: very different. So, and that's also understanding what's bankrupt, you 619 00:28:53,760 --> 00:28:56,840 Speaker 2: know as it because because you can be highly productive 620 00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:00,360 Speaker 2: and have no sense of that illution.

Whatever 653 00:30:20,640 --> 00:30:24,760 Speaker 2: you might introduce, you also introduce because you wouldn't be 654 00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:27,840 Speaker 2: introducing that if it was something that you didn't have. 655 00:30:28,160 --> 00:30:30,560 Speaker 2: You're introducing it because it's something you don't have that 656 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:34,680 Speaker 2: you're wanting, right, And so if you're introducing that you're 657 00:30:34,720 --> 00:30:38,240 Speaker 2: also introducing the loss, the loss of well, wait me, 658 00:30:38,320 --> 00:30:39,840 Speaker 2: I won't I won't be able to produce over here, 659 00:30:39,960 --> 00:30:42,400 Speaker 2: or I won't be effective over here, or this might 660 00:30:42,480 --> 00:30:45,040 Speaker 2: you know, fall apart. So that's the fear. That's why 661 00:30:45,080 --> 00:30:47,920 Speaker 2: when someone says, well, most people don't change, they're not wrong, 662 00:30:48,520 --> 00:30:51,840 Speaker 2: just because what it requires to change is huge. 663 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:54,040 Speaker 1: You mean, like, I'm stopping drinking, so I'm not gonna 664 00:30:54,040 --> 00:30:55,840 Speaker 1: be the life of the party anymore. I'm overweight, I'm 665 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:59,000 Speaker 1: losing weight. I'm not going to be jovial exactly. Yeah, 666 00:30:59,160 --> 00:31:01,280 Speaker 1: there's that Friends, that episode about fun and Bob. 667 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:04,240 Speaker 2: I think it's fun Bobby Worth, right, Oh god, Bobby's 668 00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:06,160 Speaker 2: coming over, you know, because he is an alcoholic and 669 00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,400 Speaker 2: he was hysterical and now and he's no longer drinking 670 00:31:08,400 --> 00:31:11,040 Speaker 2: and he's not fun anymore, right, Which is not accurate. 671 00:31:11,160 --> 00:31:13,920 Speaker 2: It's not you know, lots of people have been sober 672 00:31:13,920 --> 00:31:16,920 Speaker 2: for years who are incredibly entertaining and great and creative 673 00:31:16,920 --> 00:31:19,600 Speaker 2: at all and more productive than ever. So it's not 674 00:31:19,680 --> 00:31:23,000 Speaker 2: a function of that, but it is a function of 675 00:31:23,040 --> 00:31:25,560 Speaker 2: not being afraid to lose. And I think and I 676 00:31:25,600 --> 00:31:27,400 Speaker 2: look at that as one of the major themes of 677 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:31,120 Speaker 2: evolution right that you're willing in some area to you know, 678 00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:44,200 Speaker 2: to lose in a powerful, profound way. 679 00:31:47,160 --> 00:31:49,520 Speaker 3: Okay, so now I have two little things. 680 00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:51,400 Speaker 1: So the two things I want to talk about are 681 00:31:51,400 --> 00:31:53,680 Speaker 1: something you said recently about people don't come batteries are 682 00:31:53,720 --> 00:31:56,400 Speaker 1: not included the way that we start like catastrophizing and 683 00:31:56,400 --> 00:31:58,240 Speaker 1: thinking about something. But they're not this, but they're this, 684 00:31:58,680 --> 00:32:00,400 Speaker 1: whe they're different than the last person. And I was 685 00:32:00,400 --> 00:32:02,920 Speaker 1: with and like, and you've said, like battery, people don't 686 00:32:02,960 --> 00:32:06,160 Speaker 1: come with batteries. That's one concept, and then the other 687 00:32:06,160 --> 00:32:08,840 Speaker 1: one is like I don't think this is just like 688 00:32:08,920 --> 00:32:11,120 Speaker 1: a bit. But when I was talking to a writer 689 00:32:11,280 --> 00:32:13,800 Speaker 1: who works for Fortune magazine last night, this woman Diane Brady, 690 00:32:13,840 --> 00:32:17,520 Speaker 1: and she was talking really intimately about the difference between 691 00:32:17,520 --> 00:32:20,600 Speaker 1: extroverts and introverts as it pertains to being a CEO, 692 00:32:20,680 --> 00:32:23,239 Speaker 1: and she was like, I'm an extrovert. She knew who 693 00:32:23,320 --> 00:32:26,239 Speaker 1: she was, and she was like, the pandemic killed me. 694 00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:28,320 Speaker 1: I was like wanting to like go talk to like 695 00:32:29,000 --> 00:32:30,600 Speaker 1: essential essential worker. 696 00:32:30,800 --> 00:32:31,200 Speaker 2: Yeah. 697 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:32,600 Speaker 1: Yeah, she was like I wanted to walk out. And 698 00:32:32,640 --> 00:32:36,760 Speaker 1: for me, I was like I was a in a 699 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 1: like a blanket. I extended the pandemic two years by 700 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 1: that behavior like it gave me license to keep using 701 00:32:43,760 --> 00:32:46,200 Speaker 1: it as an excuse to never leave the house. So 702 00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:50,480 Speaker 1: and then she was talking about how entrepreneurs introverts are 703 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: very good entrepreneurs because they get really deep and granular 704 00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:58,160 Speaker 1: and extroverts don't have have more difficult time focusing. They 705 00:32:58,160 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: may be good at knowing a lot of different things, 706 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,760 Speaker 1: maybe about the market, about so many different companies and 707 00:33:02,840 --> 00:33:05,840 Speaker 1: different topics, but they don't they have a difficulty focusing. 708 00:33:06,240 --> 00:33:08,440 Speaker 2: I think that's a really use just just to put 709 00:33:08,480 --> 00:33:10,960 Speaker 2: some you know, parentheses around it. I think that's I 710 00:33:11,000 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 2: think it's really astute in terms of introverts and extroverts 711 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:19,160 Speaker 2: that if you look at CEO, someone who's doing all 712 00:33:19,160 --> 00:33:23,280 Speaker 2: the operations and managing all those operations and managing people, yeah, 713 00:33:23,360 --> 00:33:27,400 Speaker 2: you know, they're mostly extroverts. They have that ability visionaries, 714 00:33:27,880 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 2: you know, founders, entrepreneurs, they're more introverted. They're like, you know, 715 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 2: that's a very that's a that's more of a thing. 716 00:33:33,120 --> 00:33:36,080 Speaker 2: They wouldn't be running and managing a bunch of people. 717 00:33:36,400 --> 00:33:39,080 Speaker 2: So that's why when I when I look at you know, 718 00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:42,560 Speaker 2: like when Elon Musk kind of took over Twitter, I 719 00:33:42,880 --> 00:33:47,920 Speaker 2: management is not his you know, he's an inventor, right, and. 720 00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:50,520 Speaker 1: What are you? I'm totally an introvert and people are 721 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 1: shocked by that, but I can't. I hate managing people 722 00:33:53,480 --> 00:33:53,840 Speaker 1: from the. 723 00:33:54,000 --> 00:33:57,680 Speaker 2: So I'm the same way. I'm a complete introvert. Okay, interesting, 724 00:33:57,920 --> 00:34:00,600 Speaker 2: I'm a complete and everybody says, so I'm much more 725 00:34:01,040 --> 00:34:04,360 Speaker 2: like the pandemic. I thrived in the pandemic and and 726 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:09,040 Speaker 2: zoom became everything. So everybody, even I always say, an 727 00:34:09,080 --> 00:34:11,799 Speaker 2: act of love is that you don't invite me anywhere, right, 728 00:34:12,000 --> 00:34:15,880 Speaker 2: so you cancel on me, right, So so all of 729 00:34:15,920 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 2: those that's that's but being creative, generative, you know, collaborative 730 00:34:20,640 --> 00:34:23,120 Speaker 2: and making something happen, those that's you know, that's where 731 00:34:23,160 --> 00:34:26,680 Speaker 2: I thrive. And you don't want me running your company. 732 00:34:27,080 --> 00:34:32,160 Speaker 1: But this woman said that that that they draw upon 733 00:34:32,360 --> 00:34:37,040 Speaker 1: each other like. Well, It's interesting though, because I find 734 00:34:37,080 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: that people. I've had people gravitate towards me because of 735 00:34:41,680 --> 00:34:44,359 Speaker 1: my like the light and the way that I am, 736 00:34:44,480 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: like my passion, which isn't about being an extrovert, and 737 00:34:47,440 --> 00:34:50,359 Speaker 1: sometimes they'll like dim my light as a result. It's 738 00:34:50,440 --> 00:34:52,160 Speaker 1: kind of a different thing. But I'm thinking to who 739 00:34:52,200 --> 00:34:54,719 Speaker 1: is attracted to who introverts are attracted to extroverts or 740 00:34:54,880 --> 00:34:58,080 Speaker 1: extroverts because there are two extroverts are not the best combination, right, 741 00:34:58,120 --> 00:34:59,440 Speaker 1: because you can't focus. 742 00:34:59,719 --> 00:35:02,000 Speaker 2: Well first, well, you don't necessarily want to, you know 743 00:35:02,040 --> 00:35:04,760 Speaker 2: when when you're just back to the whole idea of 744 00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:08,279 Speaker 2: knowing your position, which you kind of started with, like yeah, 745 00:35:08,280 --> 00:35:11,040 Speaker 2: and knowing what your contribution is and people wanting to 746 00:35:11,080 --> 00:35:14,279 Speaker 2: be what they're not. Right, you know, this is really 747 00:35:14,360 --> 00:35:18,320 Speaker 2: understanding you know how you where you fully express yourself 748 00:35:18,360 --> 00:35:20,400 Speaker 2: and what does that look like? And just like in 749 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:22,440 Speaker 2: a relationship, if if you have two people of the 750 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:25,160 Speaker 2: same issues, you know that's problematic and you know, meaning 751 00:35:25,200 --> 00:35:26,680 Speaker 2: like oh we're going to run out of money, Yeah, 752 00:35:26,680 --> 00:35:28,960 Speaker 2: we're going to die. You don't want those two things 753 00:35:29,080 --> 00:35:30,960 Speaker 2: or like god, look out fat i am, look out, 754 00:35:31,000 --> 00:35:33,960 Speaker 2: look at my butt. You don't want both those all 755 00:35:34,000 --> 00:35:37,080 Speaker 2: those issues colliding. You want them missing. And that's the 756 00:35:37,120 --> 00:35:39,640 Speaker 2: same with assets. When you build a team, you know, 757 00:35:39,840 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 2: the CEO is not the is not the CTO, and 758 00:35:44,080 --> 00:35:48,040 Speaker 2: the CTO is not the CEO, and the founders and 759 00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:51,200 Speaker 2: the visionaries not and they're all they're all and building 760 00:35:51,400 --> 00:35:56,080 Speaker 2: a profound championship team is understanding each person playing their 761 00:35:56,120 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 2: position perfectly and they intersect. 762 00:35:58,640 --> 00:36:00,760 Speaker 1: Yeah, you could be in the I've had someone who's 763 00:36:01,160 --> 00:36:04,000 Speaker 1: seems who's in the wrong seat, but and they're great 764 00:36:04,040 --> 00:36:05,080 Speaker 1: in the right seat. 765 00:36:04,880 --> 00:36:06,960 Speaker 2: Like absolutely, just a little exactly. 766 00:36:07,239 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: Okay, you could have someone who seems terrible because they're 767 00:36:09,800 --> 00:36:12,080 Speaker 1: in the wrong fucking seat. But if they're loyal and 768 00:36:12,160 --> 00:36:15,560 Speaker 1: seems smart enough, you should play musical chairs. And what's 769 00:36:15,600 --> 00:36:18,120 Speaker 1: interesting is that. So I'm at this Fortune event last night. 770 00:36:18,160 --> 00:36:20,680 Speaker 1: I'm sitting at the table with a woman very high 771 00:36:20,760 --> 00:36:23,920 Speaker 1: up at General Motors and another and we're next to uh, 772 00:36:24,040 --> 00:36:27,600 Speaker 1: Josh Kushner, uh, and the guy who is the CEO, 773 00:36:27,760 --> 00:36:31,160 Speaker 1: Sebastian of hoult Renfrew, like major people. And this woman 774 00:36:31,239 --> 00:36:33,920 Speaker 1: Diane Brady next to me, who had an interesting conversation 775 00:36:33,960 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: with journalists and she's at Fortune. Now that's her, that's her. 776 00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,040 Speaker 1: She's the one who said it. But to be honest, 777 00:36:39,400 --> 00:36:42,400 Speaker 1: I have never heard anyone use it in human resources 778 00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:46,600 Speaker 1: and in staffing and in executive searches. And they should, 779 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,680 Speaker 1: like you're not allowed to ask someone how old they are, 780 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,359 Speaker 1: but you should be you should actually do the emotionally 781 00:36:51,440 --> 00:36:55,280 Speaker 1: intelligent conversation in staffing and ask are you an introvise? 782 00:36:55,280 --> 00:36:57,880 Speaker 1: This is no wrong answer, but here's the here's the quiz, 783 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,560 Speaker 1: or give them the quiz, like it's like an IQ 784 00:36:59,719 --> 00:37:03,440 Speaker 1: quiz because it's true, Like I have been in relationships 785 00:37:03,480 --> 00:37:06,520 Speaker 1: with introverts many times because I'm attracted to someone similar 786 00:37:06,520 --> 00:37:07,920 Speaker 1: to me because they're gonna say I don't want to 787 00:37:07,920 --> 00:37:08,640 Speaker 1: go out either. 788 00:37:08,640 --> 00:37:09,600 Speaker 3: But it's bad for me. 789 00:37:10,239 --> 00:37:13,560 Speaker 1: It's bad for me, and I haven't realized that because 790 00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:15,080 Speaker 1: it's like I get into like sort of like there's 791 00:37:15,080 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 1: like a film on us. 792 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:17,160 Speaker 3: It's like stale. 793 00:37:17,280 --> 00:37:21,080 Speaker 2: Understanding, you know, understanding and the one hundred of nuances 794 00:37:21,120 --> 00:37:23,840 Speaker 2: that go to those kind of headlines intovert an extrovert 795 00:37:23,880 --> 00:37:27,480 Speaker 2: r because underneath those two things are tons of nuances that, yeah, 796 00:37:27,520 --> 00:37:31,040 Speaker 2: that someone should use this as some sort of scrutiny 797 00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:33,279 Speaker 2: in terms of discerning like, well, is this the person 798 00:37:33,360 --> 00:37:35,239 Speaker 2: the right position? I mean, I'm doing that all day long. 799 00:37:35,280 --> 00:37:37,320 Speaker 2: In terms of subtle pivot, it's like just a little 800 00:37:37,560 --> 00:37:40,359 Speaker 2: subtle pivot and changes is a game changer with that 801 00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:42,919 Speaker 2: person or a dramatic pivot, right, Yeah. 802 00:37:42,960 --> 00:37:44,880 Speaker 1: But I think in this case the label is important 803 00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:46,600 Speaker 1: because I don't think that the average person if I 804 00:37:46,640 --> 00:37:50,080 Speaker 1: were applying for a job, they would not think that 805 00:37:50,120 --> 00:37:50,960 Speaker 1: I was an introvert. 806 00:37:51,080 --> 00:37:53,400 Speaker 2: No, no, no, no, they wouldn't. They wouldn't have no idea. 807 00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 3: You too, if someone were hiring you, Brick, they. 808 00:37:56,239 --> 00:37:59,000 Speaker 2: Would no, no, no, absolutely right, So. 809 00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:00,520 Speaker 1: They might think you could manage a bunch of people. 810 00:38:00,560 --> 00:38:02,840 Speaker 1: They might think you could be the head. You know. 811 00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:04,520 Speaker 2: You know what I mean, I've done that. When I'm 812 00:38:04,560 --> 00:38:06,719 Speaker 2: pitching something that I really want you to take over this, 813 00:38:06,800 --> 00:38:09,439 Speaker 2: I go, that's a lesson you want me doing exactly, 814 00:38:09,600 --> 00:38:12,520 Speaker 2: And I say that directly. You know, that's not that 815 00:38:12,840 --> 00:38:15,000 Speaker 2: I'm not I'm not doing that, right, But that's because 816 00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:18,120 Speaker 2: also you won't do obligation. Yes, so, but I was 817 00:38:18,160 --> 00:38:21,439 Speaker 2: saying about Bethane. When you're seeing being attracted to your light, 818 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:26,560 Speaker 2: that is what That's what someone who's an entrepreneur, visionary, 819 00:38:26,920 --> 00:38:30,520 Speaker 2: you know, someone who like you. People know that shit's 820 00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:33,560 Speaker 2: going to happen over there. This is something, this is 821 00:38:33,719 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 2: you know, there's something creative, something innovative, something will happen 822 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,319 Speaker 2: that will translate into you know, into the world. Right, 823 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:42,960 Speaker 2: So I think people know that, right. 824 00:38:43,080 --> 00:38:45,640 Speaker 3: And I get vampired and I don't even realize it is. 825 00:38:45,680 --> 00:38:47,440 Speaker 2: And then you need to know who then you need 826 00:38:47,480 --> 00:38:49,880 Speaker 2: to know like who are you going to allow do 827 00:38:50,000 --> 00:38:52,239 Speaker 2: that because they have to be complementary in terms of 828 00:38:52,280 --> 00:38:55,200 Speaker 2: feeding you as much as you feed that. Right, it's 829 00:38:55,239 --> 00:38:56,800 Speaker 2: a it's that's part of the dance. 830 00:38:57,360 --> 00:38:59,960 Speaker 1: And by the way, that's a thing that's another construct 831 00:39:00,080 --> 00:39:02,000 Speaker 1: that like could be a chapter in a book that 832 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:04,640 Speaker 1: I never have thought about that and this age I've 833 00:39:04,719 --> 00:39:08,319 Speaker 1: never thought about that I'm gonna draw certain people, but 834 00:39:09,080 --> 00:39:10,960 Speaker 1: if they're if we're not gonna be playing tennis where 835 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:12,640 Speaker 1: I'm playing with a better tennis player and they're just 836 00:39:12,680 --> 00:39:16,960 Speaker 1: gonna draw off of me, but I'm not getting anything positive. 837 00:39:17,080 --> 00:39:19,280 Speaker 1: It's gonna kill me. And it's happened like it actually 838 00:39:19,360 --> 00:39:22,240 Speaker 1: you feel like you're just light is dimming. It's actually 839 00:39:22,239 --> 00:39:22,759 Speaker 1: happened to me. 840 00:39:22,880 --> 00:39:26,120 Speaker 2: It's wild and that I mean, I'm possibly I don't 841 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:29,040 Speaker 2: know if it's actually, you know, completely true. But that's 842 00:39:29,080 --> 00:39:32,600 Speaker 2: an age thing also where you then know that because 843 00:39:32,600 --> 00:39:35,959 Speaker 2: mostly you're just gonna you're gonna draw in everything, because 844 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:38,560 Speaker 2: that's what the light does. It'll draw in all kinds 845 00:39:38,600 --> 00:39:41,799 Speaker 2: of things. And then the ability to discern who you 846 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:44,680 Speaker 2: actually collaborate with, who you're with, what you're gonna do. 847 00:39:44,920 --> 00:39:48,480 Speaker 1: Mark, That's exactly my biggest problem. Literally, access is my 848 00:39:48,560 --> 00:39:50,440 Speaker 1: number one problem. Everyone around me. We have to go 849 00:39:50,480 --> 00:39:51,400 Speaker 1: on an access diet. 850 00:39:51,480 --> 00:39:51,839 Speaker 3: Two things. 851 00:39:51,960 --> 00:39:55,440 Speaker 1: Having too many ideas is number one.
