But these days, I've got one of 27 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:13,520 Speaker 1: those tennis balls and that great big stick. So he's 28 00:01:13,560 --> 00:01:16,200 Speaker 1: gotta because he loves working out. You throw the ball 29 00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,520 Speaker 1: and then he runs off and he brings it terribly pleased, 30 00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:20,039 Speaker 1: and he brings it back and now good, you know, 31 00:01:20,120 --> 00:01:22,840 Speaker 1: good boys. So yeah, these days, I don't worry with 32 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:25,680 Speaker 1: the pencils. I just I just chucked the ball a little. 33 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:27,279 Speaker 2: Bit, and you have to give him his andy worming tablets. 34 00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:32,039 Speaker 2: Worre he dragged his backside along the cat. So did 35 00:01:32,080 --> 00:01:35,080 Speaker 2: you look at the self help shelf and there's lots 36 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,600 Speaker 2: of the women writing those books now, and did you 37 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:39,679 Speaker 2: go nah? 38 00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 1: I just saw cash on those shelves. That's all I saw. 39 00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:44,440 Speaker 1: So I thought, you know what, I'm weighing into this area. 40 00:01:45,800 --> 00:01:47,960 Speaker 1: I love telling people what to do, so it just 41 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: felt like a natural progression. But the thing that was 42 00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,480 Speaker 1: really start at the beginning of I think it might 43 00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 1: have been the Imagine video that Galgado released and Dan 44 00:01:58,600 --> 00:02:01,840 Speaker 1: and I started laughing about how much to celebrities think 45 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:05,080 Speaker 1: they're touching the people. I mean, how much is the 46 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,880 Speaker 1: delusion of thinking that whatever you think is so amazing 47 00:02:08,919 --> 00:02:12,519 Speaker 1: it needs to be shared. I'm like, that's me I've 48 00:02:12,520 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: got that blind self confidence. So Dan's like, you know, 49 00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:18,079 Speaker 1: because Dan's mad for self help book. So the two 50 00:02:18,080 --> 00:02:20,120 Speaker 1: of us sort of started to make a few notes 51 00:02:20,160 --> 00:02:22,040 Speaker 1: together and he's like, well, how do you feel about this? Now? 52 00:02:22,040 --> 00:02:24,120 Speaker 1: I write that down? So he kind of questioned me 53 00:02:24,240 --> 00:02:27,440 Speaker 1: into thinking more broadly about it, and I came up 54 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: with the easy system, which the more I've gone into 55 00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:35,160 Speaker 1: really is a lifestyle system that is amazing to implement. 56 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: So the E, for example, stands for expect lower all 57 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:41,959 Speaker 1: your expectations. You know, are you ever going to write 58 00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 1: that movie? Are you ever going to really, you know, 59 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: write that book? Whatever? Just the most you can expect 60 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: from yourself. Today's to put your feet to the floor. 61 00:02:50,880 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 3: It's true. Are you ever going to lose? Are you 62 00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:56,960 Speaker 3: going to lose that apron of fat around your middle? Nowhere? Not? 63 00:02:57,120 --> 00:02:57,680 Speaker 2: Why bother? 64 00:02:57,720 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: I'm not going to bother about it anymore? Not going 65 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:02,519 Speaker 1: to lose? And how many wardrobes do I need to 66 00:03:02,560 --> 00:03:04,880 Speaker 1: put into the garage with clothes don't fit me anymore? 67 00:03:04,919 --> 00:03:06,720 Speaker 1: I need to let the balloon go. 68 00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:09,680 Speaker 4: Okay, So expectations out the window, all right. 69 00:03:09,760 --> 00:03:12,760 Speaker 1: It's for armor, to armor yourself, to get strong, to 70 00:03:12,760 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 1: build your blind self confidence, because then you're just not 71 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,040 Speaker 1: going to care what That's very much a celebrity trade 72 00:03:17,120 --> 00:03:19,440 Speaker 1: is not to care what other people think or say 73 00:03:19,480 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: about you. So armoring yourself and getting stronger with a 74 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:27,200 Speaker 1: little bit of Julia jitsu, which I'll explain quite strongly 75 00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:30,120 Speaker 1: in the book. And then the S is for stop 76 00:03:30,800 --> 00:03:33,520 Speaker 1: doing all the stuff you don't want to do, like 77 00:03:33,840 --> 00:03:37,320 Speaker 1: going to stuff or raising your kids, those sort of 78 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 1: things that you're like, I could delegate this. I like 79 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,920 Speaker 1: to say yes and then cancel. There's a very big 80 00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 1: chapter on how to be able to die Yes. I'd 81 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:49,360 Speaker 1: love to do that, and then just cancel later because 82 00:03:49,400 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: the feeling of joy that you're coming is still going 83 00:03:52,240 --> 00:03:55,880 Speaker 1: to be omni present. They just won't remember that you've canceled. 84 00:03:56,240 --> 00:03:59,600 Speaker 1: And then you know the why and the easiest. Once 85 00:03:59,640 --> 00:04:03,360 Speaker 1: you've canceled everything, you're freed up a lot of spare 86 00:04:03,440 --> 00:04:06,240 Speaker 1: time for yr pee to do all the stuff you 87 00:04:06,280 --> 00:04:07,480 Speaker 1: want to do, like lie on. 88 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 4: The couch, yes, and then the circle continues. 89 00:04:11,200 --> 00:04:13,120 Speaker 2: My friends and I talk about this a lot, is 90 00:04:13,160 --> 00:04:15,960 Speaker 2: that we feel obligated to say yes to a lot 91 00:04:15,960 --> 00:04:18,039 Speaker 2: of things, and then you get resentful that you've said 92 00:04:18,120 --> 00:04:20,480 Speaker 2: yes and we're all in age going I don't want 93 00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:21,360 Speaker 2: to do that anymore. 94 00:04:21,360 --> 00:04:23,599 Speaker 3: Whether it's a lot of it's social, it's not all work. 95 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:27,240 Speaker 1: It's like on five and after COVID, forget it. I'm 96 00:04:27,279 --> 00:04:30,400 Speaker 1: never going out. Sometimes I'll sit. You know, you've washed 97 00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:32,159 Speaker 1: the hair, You've still got that job ahead of you 98 00:04:32,200 --> 00:04:34,880 Speaker 1: with the blow dry, before you put on the makeup, 99 00:04:34,880 --> 00:04:36,880 Speaker 1: and you sit on the bed, just like I do 100 00:04:37,360 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: not want to go. I don't even care if it's 101 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:41,920 Speaker 1: dinner with my best friends, I don't want to go. 102 00:04:42,560 --> 00:04:45,120 Speaker 1: So that's the moment.

Some people don't want to be called, 114 00:05:09,680 --> 00:05:14,479 Speaker 1: so it's good to reach out for the text all 115 00:05:14,560 --> 00:05:16,920 Speaker 1: day to ask you this, how crude for them? 116 00:05:17,440 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 2: How come you've done this as an audio book? Couldn't 117 00:05:20,279 --> 00:05:21,359 Speaker 2: be bothered writing. 118 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:28,520 Speaker 4: It's part of the lowering the expectations I see practicing. 119 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,200 Speaker 1: I have enjoyed about the process of Audible is that 120 00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:35,040 Speaker 1: I've been able to have almost a stand up performance 121 00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: because I had to didn't tour last year recording the audio. 122 00:05:39,040 --> 00:05:43,960 Speaker 1: It's not just reading the book. It's a proper, proper performance. 123 00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:47,000 Speaker 1: I've even done accents and voices. I had to keep 124 00:05:47,040 --> 00:05:49,960 Speaker 1: stopping because I was finding myself. So music, which is 125 00:05:49,960 --> 00:05:54,839 Speaker 1: not actually a new thing, but the opportunity for comics 126 00:05:54,920 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: to have this performance an extra arm when you can't 127 00:05:59,680 --> 00:06:01,599 Speaker 1: be on the stage with I think we're only still 128 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:05,840 Speaker 1: up to seventy five percent capacity in theaters. So this 129 00:06:06,279 --> 00:06:09,560 Speaker 1: going down this track with Audible has been a really 130 00:06:09,600 --> 00:06:12,920 Speaker 1: really fun adventure, genuinely, so you've I've written the whole 131 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:15,360 Speaker 1: book book.
