Summary
I've never taken a drug in my life, but I can tell you one thing for sure, if you take drugs, you're not going to be able to do anything amazing while on them. If you can't focus on one task for longer than a short period of time without taking drugs, then you're a dickhead. I'm not saying don't take them, I'm just saying if you don't have the ability to do something amazing while you're on them, you need to stop taking them. And if you can do something better than you can without taking them, then that's a good thing. I don't care what you do, I just care that you do it without the need for drugs. I mean if you want to be a better person than you are right now, then take the drugs, but if you need them to make you focus, then let me tell you what you should do with them. I'll tell you why you should not take them and why you shouldn't even be taking them at all. I've never done drugs before and I don t plan to try them again. I'm going to go down to South America and take some ayahuasca and try to find out if I can do anything better than I can already do without them. If I can't do it, then I'll go down there and do it better. I'll let you know what I think of it. -Tate -Eddie Morrow - I hope you enjoy this episode and tweet me what you thought of it! and if you like it, tweet me if you think it's good or not good enough!

I get lots of messages about drugs. People say to me, Tate, you look like you're on cocaine.
00:00:15.920
In my life, I've never tried cocaine. Never even tried it. Never. Never tried cocaine.
00:00:20.320
Never tried weed. Never tried meth. Never tried any drugs in my life. Cigars and vodka is all I do.
00:00:24.660
I've never done drugs because I was always blood tested when I was fighting. And then when I retired
00:00:27.780
from fighting, I thought, well, I've got up to 30 without ever doing drugs. What's the point in
00:00:30.500
starting now? So I've never done drugs in my life. Never even tried them ever, ever. And I say this
00:00:34.840
and people go to me, ah, but what about the Adderall or these other drugs that help you focus?
00:00:41.360
They say that we can only access 20% of our brain. Let's let you access all of it.
00:00:48.140
Just out of curiosity. And that's all. I was blind, but now I see.
00:00:54.040
And this is new to me. The idea of chemically enhancing yourself for focus. I was like,
00:01:00.260
okay, so how do these drugs work? I think there's another one begins with M. Can't remember. Anyway.
00:01:06.460
Yeah. Is Adderall even the right drug? I can't remember. If you guys are watching this,
00:01:09.980
you know what I mean. Like those drugs that people take when they focus and they sit down,
00:01:13.380
they take these drugs for like exams and shit. Anyway. So a few people were trying to highlight
00:01:18.100
to me how amazing these drugs are. And I was talking to them and I was saying,
00:01:21.200
so when you take these drugs, what do you do? Because I expected it to be like the Limitless
00:01:25.400
movie. Like you take this drug and all of a sudden you go from being a terrible chess player to being
00:01:28.940
a grandmaster. You can focus and you start winning loads of chess games.
00:01:33.540
I tablet a day and I was limitless. I had cultural appetites.
00:01:38.580
Since when do you speak Italian? I finished my book in four days. Math became useful.
00:01:44.580
So Eddie Morrow, what's your secret? Medication. What would you do?
00:01:55.320
So what do you do? Oh, I get up really early and I get all my work done and the house is clean and I
00:01:59.340
do all my uni work. You take drugs to clean the house and do your uni work? What's the fucking point
00:02:05.800
in that? I can clean the house and do my uni work without drugs. I didn't go to university. I was too
00:02:10.500
smart for university. I told my teacher to fucking suck dick and now I'm much richer than any of them will
00:02:13.960
ever be anyway. But you get my point. The people who are doing these drugs aren't even doing anything
00:02:22.960
remarkable when they're on the drugs. They're doing normal stuff. If you cannot generate enough
00:02:27.200
focus in your life to clean your own house and do your own uni work without needing to take a
00:02:30.960
fucking drug to do it, then you're a dickhead. If you're going to take these enhancing drugs,
00:02:35.000
I expect you to do something spectacular while on them. I expect spectacular results. I'm not saying
00:02:40.000
don't take them. Modafinil. That's one of them. Modafinil. Modafinil. Something like that. If you're
00:02:45.520
going to take these drugs, I expect you to come at me with a story. I took it and I could fly to the air
00:02:49.400
like fucking Superman. Fine. I took the drug and I finished my homework. Finish your homework without
00:02:55.860
the drug, you fucking nerd. Unbelievable. Most you people lack focus. You lack the ability to focus on
00:03:02.700
one task for anything longer than a little period of time without fucking getting the desire to jerk off.
00:03:07.060
Admit it. You sit at the computer and you're supposed to do your homework and halfway through the fucking
00:03:11.000
homework, you just load up Pornhub. Start stroking your cock like a little nerd. That's your problem.
00:03:16.960
And you think taking this drug will allow you to finish your work so then you can jerk off while on the
00:03:20.800
drug really fast. It's pathetic. I've never taken a drug in my life. I will not alter my brain chemistry.
00:03:27.040
My neurochemistry is obviously perfectly optimized. Obviously. That is clear. I am the pinnacle of human
00:03:33.580
performance, both mentally and physically. So if I'm going to take a drug that's going to alter my
00:03:38.620
neurochemistry, I expect to be able to do something far more fantastic than fucking homework. While
00:03:44.240
we're on the subject of drugs, people also ask me about that ayahuasca shit. What about ayahuasca and
00:03:48.820
you can go down to South America and see the spirit world? There is no spirit world. One. Two, I don't want to
00:03:58.340
go to South America. I've been all around the world. I've been to South America for work. It's a shithole.
00:04:01.740
And people are like, oh yeah, but you know, it's not a shithole because of the real cultural
00:04:04.880
experiences. It's a shithole. I don't want to go. And this ayahuasca crap, what it really is,
00:04:12.180
is people trying to find meaning in nothing because they cannot find meaning in something.
00:04:16.680
If I need to test myself and learn about myself, I can enter the cage and fight a man and I can learn
00:04:22.520
everything it takes. I can learn everything I need to know about perseverance and grit and what I'm
00:04:27.020
really made of and my spirituality. I can understand myself. You're too pussy to do that,
00:04:32.120
aren't you? So you'd rather go down to fucking Puerto Rico, drink some brown liquid, throw up
00:04:37.060
all over yourself and then lie to me about how you saw spirits. That's supposed to be one of those
00:04:40.860
transformative experiences. People say that it changes their life. That's how you find meaning
00:04:47.560
in life. I find meaning in life through tests. I test myself right here in the real world.
00:04:53.100
Andrew, become a world champion. Andrew, become a millionaire. I test myself and I succeed.
00:04:57.700
This is how I learn. You, no, you ain't got the balls to do that. So you go down to fucking,
00:05:03.420
where are they? Fucking Honduras, some shithole. And you drink some poison and you throw up and go,
00:05:08.800
oh, it's hallucinating. And I saw the spirit world and I learned so much about myself. And I learned
00:05:12.520
that when I throw up on myself, really inside of my feelings, please, please, please stop doing
00:05:22.960
dumb shit. If you want to learn about yourself, test yourself right here, right now. In fact,
00:05:27.560
I'll give you all a test. If you want a test, I'll give you a test. Stop being a bitch there. Stop
00:05:32.360
sending me stupid emails about fucking ayahuasca and modafinil and other dumb shit. If you were me
00:05:37.400
for a fucking fraction of human time, a fraction of human time, you would understand the unlimited
00:05:42.600
power I possess. And you wouldn't ask me such stupid fucking questions. I don't need more
