Tate Speech - Tate on Doing Drugs

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!

00:00:00.000 I get lots of messages about drugs. People say to me, Tate, you look like you're on cocaine.

00:00:08.160 I can't feel my face.

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 0.98

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 1.00

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 1.00

00:02:13.960 ever be anyway. But you get my point. The people who are doing these drugs aren't even doing anything 1.00

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 1.00

00:02:30.960 fucking drug to do it, then you're a dickhead. If you're going to take these enhancing drugs, 1.00

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 1.00

00:02:55.860 the drug, you fucking nerd. Unbelievable. Most you people lack focus. You lack the ability to focus on 1.00

00:03:02.700 one task for anything longer than a little period of time without fucking getting the desire to jerk off. 1.00

00:03:07.060 Admit it. You sit at the computer and you're supposed to do your homework and halfway through the fucking 1.00

00:03:11.000 homework, you just load up Pornhub. Start stroking your cock like a little nerd. That's your problem. 1.00

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 0.99

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. 1.00

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 0.98

00:03:44.240 we're on the subject of drugs, people also ask me about that ayahuasca shit. What about ayahuasca and 1.00

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 1.00

00:04:04.880 experiences. It's a shithole. I don't want to go. And this ayahuasca crap, what it really is, 1.00

00:04:12.180 is people trying to find meaning in nothing because they cannot find meaning in something. 0.99

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, 1.00

00:04:32.120 aren't you? So you'd rather go down to fucking Puerto Rico, drink some brown liquid, throw up 1.00

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 1.00

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, 1.00

00:05:03.420 where are they? Fucking Honduras, some shithole. And you drink some poison and you throw up and go, 1.00

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 1.00

00:05:22.960 dumb shit. If you want to learn about yourself, test yourself right here, right now. In fact, 0.99

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 1.00

00:05:32.360 sending me stupid emails about fucking ayahuasca and modafinil and other dumb shit. If you were me 1.00

00:05:37.400 for a fucking fraction of human time, a fraction of human time, you would understand the unlimited 0.99

00:05:42.600 power I possess. And you wouldn't ask me such stupid fucking questions. I don't need more 1.00

00:05:46.480 fanal. I don't need it. Cause I'm new.
