00:01:47.480
in the description box below absolutely aesthetic i might need to procure myself a pair as well
00:01:55.640
so on to the teaching at hand this is something you can use for anything in life really we're
00:02:01.560
gonna start with an example of the most perhaps the most simple and straightforward thing so i
00:02:07.560
suppose most of you you you pray in the temple of iron you go to the gym so the next session
00:02:14.120
do this say if you do deadlifts for example greatest exercise arguably say if you do three
00:02:23.800
repetitions before going to the bar before lifting the bar before doing the movement with your body
00:02:30.640
think of it in your mind do the movement in your mind visualize yourself lifting the bar three
00:02:37.540
times think about how it will feel how you will push through when it gets heavy create the movement
00:02:44.580
first in your mind this is the teaching so i'm gonna repeat create it first in your mind you can
00:02:52.320
do the same thing with the entire session when you're driving to the gym or you're cycling or
00:02:58.420
you're walking to the gym construct the session in your mind what you're gonna do what is your
00:03:05.560
plan you should have a plan by the way so you know exactly what to do when you get into the gym if
00:03:11.020
you only go in without a plan you're not gonna get jacked simple as that unless you take steroids of
00:03:16.380
course then you can do a bit what you want but i don't recommend you to do that i recommend that
00:03:21.940
you train naturally and that you have a plan whenever you go into the gym so that is something
00:03:27.480
you can do create the session in your mind create every lift first in your mind before actually
00:03:33.740
doing it. So do the lift in your mind, then you do it with your body and you will notice that it gets
00:03:39.340
easier, especially when you get up to the really heavy weights where every single little detail
00:03:44.840
needs to be on point. So do try that. Now on to another example, a very broad example. This applies
00:03:52.380
to an MMA match, a Warhammer game, a session of diplomacy, a grappling match, any athletic
00:04:00.720
competition. Formulate a plan in your mind. Enter the competition, be it an MMA fight or be it a
00:04:09.660
Warhammer match. Have a strategy in place in your mind. Ask yourself first, what do you want to do?
00:04:16.240
Not how will I respond to the opponent. That is of course something you can think about as well,
00:04:20.700
but primarily this is the holistic life teaching. What do you want to do? What do you want to get
00:04:27.140
out from this thing. Is it a Warhammer match? Maybe you want to try a special strategy, a special
00:04:35.340
tactic that you formulated in your mind, or a diplomacy game. I can definitely recommend the
00:04:40.660
game, by the way. Diplomacy, great stuff. Formulate a tactic first in your mind. Do try to impose
00:04:47.580
your tactic on the game. If it's an MMA match, where is your strength? Is it in striking? Okay,
00:04:55.320
then you formulate a plan to keep the fight striking. If you're a grappler, take the match to
00:05:01.680
the ground and so on. You understand what I mean? The point is that don't go into any situation
00:05:07.940
without first having constructed a scenario in your mind. So whatever you do, first do it in your
00:05:14.960
mind and then you will manifest it, hopefully. Now of course when we're talking about plans,
00:05:20.380
strategies once reality hits you in the face then many plans they will you know go out the window
00:05:26.140
but it's always better to have a plan than to not have any plan at all now i will use another example
00:05:31.580
which i'm very happy on on a personal level as a famous fashion designer one of my finest triumphs
00:05:40.460
as a clothing designer if i may be so bold this woolen shorts made in lithuania materially made
00:05:47.500
in Lithuania by Merino wool but first made in my own mind. I asked myself what do I want? What do
00:05:54.460
I want in a pair of shorts to relax at home or to go to the gym or to have whenever really? What do
00:06:02.060
I want them to feel like? Yes, nice, soft, airy, not too warm. So wool often you know you think about
00:06:08.940
warm weather but you can also have it in summer actually, especially if it's short. I do like
00:06:14.140
cotton as well, but wool, linen, they hit differently. They have a high vibration for
00:06:21.100
those who want to schizomax a bit. So anyway, I started with a thought in my mind when I released
00:06:30.140
this pants. Then I thought, what if we would have this as shorts? So then I had a prototype made,
00:06:38.620
So these grey shorts, I wore them for a long time to ensure that they would feel good,
00:06:44.700
pair the wishes that I had constructed first in my mind.
00:06:48.140
So then I thought, yes, this is it. This is what I want.
00:06:51.980
This is a good manifestation of a desire in my mind.
00:06:55.580
Then it was only a matter of, you know, changing the color.
00:06:59.260
So grey, just standard, and then I opted for a light brown.
00:07:03.340
I have a little book here with different colors, so you can get a nice feel for it.
00:07:07.500
it always easier to see directly instead of a screen. So that is also a good thing. Very happy.
00:07:14.240
By the way, of course, yes, legugloria.com. It's not my meaning to promote my own work here,
00:07:20.940
my own products, but I simply want to do it because it was a good example of envisioning
00:07:26.460
something and then it getting translated into something material. Now to use another example,
00:07:33.000
just on a personal note again translate this to any endeavor any quest you're on for me when i
00:07:40.120
make a video i ask myself what is the message i want to convey what is the feeling i want to
00:07:46.340
convey so in this video the main point is i want to show all of my esteemed supporters that you
00:07:53.720
can use your mind for a lot your mind is a powerful weapon you can use to impose your will on the
00:07:58.940
world. That is what I want to convey with this video. Then of course how I am
00:08:04.880
dressed, how I look in the face for the day, how the hair is, how the light is,
00:08:08.160
how the audio is, whatever it might be. I try to optimize everything like that.
00:08:13.160
Also of course I want everything to look good but the main thing is what do I
00:08:17.240
want to say. You can apply this to if you hold a speech or if you write an
00:08:21.740
article or you write a social media post. What is the main thing you want to say
00:08:25.820
here. And that is also a very good indicator of quality. So you don't just post something for the
00:08:33.080
sake of it. I've removed posts in the past where I ask myself, what is the main point? Why am I
00:08:39.140
making this post? So if you hold a speech or a presentation or anything, always keep that in
00:08:45.760
mind. What do I want to say? What message do I want to convey? Or indeed, if you are an artist,
00:08:51.540
what is the feeling you want to convey. So if you look at all my training videos
00:08:55.780
here on YouTube, or perhaps you're watching this on X, you can head over to
00:08:59.100
my YouTube, watch all of my training videos. I have training videos from the
00:09:04.740
last 13 years. Quite cool if you think about it. What is the purpose of them?
00:09:09.480
Yes, it's for other guys to look at before training themselves, so they get
00:09:13.640
pumped up. So I'm trying to convey a feeling. So if I were to make a cool
00:09:18.380
training video this summer. If I get in a good shape, I will do it. I'm not in a super good
00:09:23.260
shape. I look jacked and everything, but I need to cut some weight. I need to lose some fat still
00:09:27.420
if I want to make a video. So anyway, what I want to say to myself then is what is the purpose of
00:09:34.220
this video? Yes, it is to increase the thumos and inspiration and joy and motivation for everyone
00:09:40.140
who's watching it. So I construct some scenes in my mind. Would it look cool if I do some
00:09:46.060
muscle-ups, some dips, some chins, some Thai boxing, whatever it might be, some cool statue.
00:09:54.100
These are all created, the scenes are created first in my mind, and then I go out and record
00:10:00.440
them. So hopefully this was somewhat informative, somewhat insightful, and I hope you can use
00:10:07.220
these insights to gain success in life. And again, it can be used for whatever. So do try it out,
00:10:13.840
do try it the next time you go to the gym. Visualize as much as possible, use your mind,
00:10:18.000
it's a very powerful weapon. All right, thanks for watching and thank you for your support. Do
00:10:24.080
