00:00:00.300 30 seconds. One time for the underdog.
00:00:04.320 Ignition sequence start.
00:00:06.980 Let me see you put them up.
00:00:09.000 Reach the sky, touch the stars, up above.
00:00:11.100 Cause it's one time for the underdog.
00:00:15.080 One time for the underdog.
00:00:17.300 I'm Patrick Bedevi, a host of Valuetainment,
00:00:18.840 and today I'm going to talk about an experience I had
00:00:20.760 at the early stages of building my business
00:00:22.800 that I had never experienced before,
00:00:24.980 and that was anxiety attacks and panic attacks.
00:00:27.620 So many times as a CEO, I run a business
00:00:30.460 where I have many, many employees and many agents,
00:00:35.600 and I have responsibilities with different carriers
00:00:38.760 and companies such as AIGs and Nationwides
00:00:41.240 and big insurance companies and, you know,
00:00:44.200 relationship with my family, my kids, my friends,
00:00:48.320 my commitments to the community,
00:00:50.100 different things that I have to do.
00:00:52.100 And this is a very difficult subject to talk about sometimes
00:00:55.860 because, you know, as CEOs,
00:00:57.960 you don't see a lot of times CEOs talk about this
00:01:00.120 and entrepreneurs talk about this
00:01:01.260 because in private settings, when we're together,
00:01:03.620 5, 10, 15 of us, and we're openly talking about it
00:01:05.700 because it's very normal.
00:01:08.160 But sometimes other people who see CEOs,
00:01:13.440 CEOs feel like they have to live this perfect life
00:01:15.620 and this perfect thing that everybody,
00:01:19.000 you stay positive and you go out there and do this
00:01:22.080 and you do that and all this stuff that everybody knows how to do
00:01:24.560 that we don't talk about the real life
00:01:26.820 and real things that a CEO struggles with
00:01:28.820 and that doesn't inspire other people to do it
00:01:31.120 because I want to tell you about some of the things
00:01:33.520 I've struggled with, with anxiety attacks
00:01:35.620 and panic attacks.
00:01:36.900 So you'll see how that's affected me
00:01:39.740 and what I did about it.
00:01:40.620 So I remember when I lived in Iran,
00:01:43.280 I grew up in an environment where there's a lot of uncertainty.
00:01:47.900 My father never let me go play outside
00:01:49.620 because you didn't trust your kids to be outside
00:01:51.460 because there was a lot of kidnapping
00:01:52.440 and different things that was happening.
00:01:54.420 So, you know, that had me grown up in an environment
00:01:58.180 with a certain level of confinement from parents to protect you
00:02:02.200 because you didn't want to see anything bad happen
00:02:04.860 and then from there, Khomeini dies,
00:02:06.600 we go to Germany, we're living in a refugee camp
00:02:08.460 and I remember when I was 11 years old in Germany
00:02:11.080 and I didn't speak German
00:02:13.380 and I got into a fight with a group of kids
00:02:17.780 at this refugee camp
00:02:19.020 and I had a hard time making friends in Germany.
00:02:22.480 And so I am from Iran.
00:02:24.760 In Germany, I experience a little bit of discrimination
00:02:28.400 because I'm from Iran
00:02:29.420 and what are you doing coming to Germany
00:02:30.520 and why are you here?
00:02:31.740 Go back to your own country.
00:02:32.940 And I had an anxiety attack
00:02:34.740 and had all this anxiety
00:02:35.740 because I didn't know how to make friends
00:02:37.680 with a people that I'm not accepted at
00:02:39.380 and my father's not there.
00:02:40.500 My father's in Iran
00:02:42.140 and he is trying to come to U.S.
00:02:44.700 so we can all meet in U.S.
00:02:45.840 and my family goes through a divorce.
00:02:47.400 These are many things that people go through.
00:02:49.060 That was my life.
00:02:51.020 And eventually, November 20th, we come to the States
00:02:53.180 and then I'm over here
00:02:54.180 and I go to school.
00:02:56.300 After school, I joined the Army
00:02:57.560 and in the first week of joining the Army,
00:03:00.000 you know, you have a lot of different pressures.
00:03:02.920 And I remember one time
00:03:03.960 I was, you know, had this pressure
00:03:07.920 of not wanting to come back to where I'm from
00:03:11.940 and I had to graduate from the Army
00:03:13.680 and one day we had to dig foxholes
00:03:16.320 and I dug two foxholes.
00:03:18.560 You're only supposed to do one
00:03:19.540 and the foxhole is six feet by six feet
00:03:21.340 by three feet wide.
00:03:23.460 And, you know, we were trying to meet a commitment
00:03:26.440 and a deadline that we had to get this thing going
00:03:28.840 because if you don't do it on time,
00:03:30.020 if you're in war
00:03:30.700 and you're going to have this and all this stuff
00:03:31.940 and then, and I had an anxiety attack
00:03:34.800 and I went to the hospital
00:03:36.280 and in the hospital,
00:03:38.240 my temperature was 104 and a half
00:03:40.700 and I had lost 20 pounds in the span of a week
00:03:42.840 and they put two IVs in me
00:03:44.580 and the doctor said, it's not a big deal.
00:03:46.480 It's just, you pushed a little harder
00:03:49.660 and this is very,
00:03:51.480 this is your body's way of saying,
00:03:53.660 you push the limits.
00:03:55.300 So, okay, great.
00:03:56.040 So, came back and went into the Army
00:03:57.980 and later on, it happened again at 24 years old
00:04:02.160 with my father
00:04:03.960 and I didn't really know what was going on with my body
00:04:06.400 because I couldn't breathe
00:04:07.280 and at that time, I was in a lot of death
00:04:08.900 and financial turmoil
00:04:10.460 and my dad's at the hospital
00:04:11.560 and my mother's back in Iran
00:04:13.500 and my sister's trying to get married
00:04:15.020 and my family's going through struggles financially
00:04:16.940 and I'm going through,
00:04:18.680 so all of this adds up
00:04:20.120 and then as a CEO, I become a CEO
00:04:21.780 and I'm running a company
00:04:23.520 and when I'm running a company,
00:04:25.020 competitors every day are telling me I can't do it
00:04:26.960 and they're calling my staff and my agents
00:04:28.880 and telling them your CEO is not capable of doing this
00:04:31.140 and calling carriers
00:04:32.680 and they're trying to bad mouth us
00:04:33.880 and all this stuff that's going on.
00:04:34.920 It's a typical part of a competitive environment
00:04:37.240 and, you know, one day I'm on a three-week tour
00:04:41.020 and I come back from the three-week tour
00:04:42.740 and when I come back from the tour,
00:04:45.600 that night I go to a meeting
00:04:48.520 and I stayed at the meeting till midnight
00:04:50.860 and then I come back home
00:04:52.100 and I had so many things on my mind.
00:04:54.080 My wife is pregnant
00:04:55.220 and I have some issues going on in our company
00:04:59.260 and then I had some issues going on
00:05:00.660 with some relationships with business people
00:05:04.200 and then I'm trying to, you know,
00:05:07.520 get this other project going.
00:05:08.900 I'm writing a book
00:05:10.220 that's got me to do some research late at night
00:05:12.360 and I'm going on four hours of sleep
00:05:14.840 and I'm really pushing it
00:05:16.020 and I'm, you know, going both ends, you know,
00:05:19.180 and one night, that night I came home,
00:05:21.180 it was 12 o'clock at night, 1 o'clock at night,
00:05:22.880 I couldn't stop breathing
00:05:23.660 and next thing you know, I have a panic attack
00:05:26.460 and, you know, ambulance comes,
00:05:28.740 my father comes, 2 o'clock in the morning,
00:05:30.420 ambulance comes, checks me out,
00:05:32.320 I get in the ambulance in our community,
00:05:33.960 I go to the hospital
00:05:34.740 and when I go to the hospital,
00:05:37.040 the doctor says,
00:05:38.260 you had a panic attack, it's very normal.
00:05:41.920 And why is it very normal?
00:05:43.360 Well, what did you do?
00:05:44.640 You know, when you're pushing everything you got,
00:05:47.080 sometimes this is your body of saying,
00:05:49.120 slow down a little bit, right?
00:05:51.120 Okay, great.
00:05:52.340 So I was 33, 34 at the time.
00:05:55.400 I said, I am going to study
00:05:57.380 the subject of anxiety attacks and panic attacks
00:06:00.840 to understand why this happens
00:06:02.660 because it happened to so many of my family members
00:06:04.660 and friends and many times
00:06:06.380 were embarrassed to talk about it.
00:06:09.020 So listen, if today's message helps you
00:06:12.440 on how you deal,
00:06:14.600 and even if one person gets something
00:06:16.680 out of this message here,
00:06:18.140 it did its purpose right.
00:06:19.460 And I think more entrepreneurs
00:06:21.080 need to talk about this.
00:06:22.280 I think more entrepreneur magazines
00:06:24.340 and blogs need to talk about this
00:06:25.860 because there are a lot of people
00:06:27.240 that deal with this
00:06:28.180 in their everyday business
00:06:30.440 and the more we know how to cope with it,
00:06:32.480 and even today, nowadays,
00:06:33.460 it's not just entrepreneurs.
00:06:34.760 I had a call I got from a friend of mine,
00:06:36.600 his 15-year-old daughter
00:06:38.160 was going through some issues
00:06:39.440 and she wanted to take her life away.
00:06:42.380 Why?
00:06:43.240 Well, because today's pressures
00:06:44.720 of kids living with social media,
00:06:46.680 Instagram, sexting, texting, Facebook,
00:06:48.960 all of these things that they're dealing with,
00:06:51.600 it's a lot more than it's ever been before.
00:06:54.120 And if we don't openly talk about it,
00:06:55.720 I think that's worse than, you know,
00:06:57.940 trying to hold it together
00:06:59.300 because I believe there's one thing
00:07:00.380 worse than exploding,
00:07:01.400 and that's imploding.
00:07:03.260 Imploding is you're holding it,
00:07:04.400 holding it, holding it, holding it,
00:07:05.180 holding it, and then boom!
00:07:07.120 You have no idea what happens with your body.
00:07:09.300 Exploding time to time.
00:07:10.600 Here's how I feel.
00:07:11.280 Here's how I feel.
00:07:11.960 Here's how I feel.
00:07:12.540 Here's how I feel.
00:07:14.200 Then you're releasing it
00:07:15.420 and feeling good about it
00:07:16.300 and you move on.
00:07:17.020 So, you know,
00:07:18.060 anxiety is not something that's a new thing.
00:07:20.100 You know, there's a lot of books here
00:07:21.440 with a lot of people
00:07:23.300 who have been struggling with anxiety,
00:07:25.020 Kennedys, Lincolns, Jacksons.
00:07:28.920 The list is long on high-profile people,
00:07:32.260 jobs, David Beckham athletes.
00:07:34.780 This is what Lincoln said many, many years ago.
00:07:37.780 Lincoln was known for having anxiety attacks.
00:07:39.920 Lincoln once said about what happened with him
00:07:44.060 and anxiety attacks.
00:07:45.160 He said,
00:07:46.360 We live in the midst of alarms.
00:07:48.940 Anxiety beclouds the future.
00:07:51.500 We expect some new disaster
00:07:53.260 with each newspaper we read.
00:07:56.740 Newspaper.
00:07:57.660 When's the last time you and I
00:07:58.880 even paid attention to the newspaper?
00:08:00.780 Everything we get with news nowadays
00:08:04.100 is within a second.
00:08:05.940 Everything.
00:08:06.460 We look at everything through Facebook, Twitter.
00:08:08.300 When somebody passes away,
00:08:09.720 we hear about it through Twitter.
00:08:11.080 When something crisis happens,
00:08:12.740 an earthquake,
00:08:13.700 a flood,
00:08:14.640 something major,
00:08:15.640 it's instant.
00:08:16.960 Instant.
00:08:17.480 Our phone notification.
00:08:18.800 Boom.
00:08:18.980 This is what happened.
00:08:19.900 Notification.
00:08:20.380 Boom.
00:08:20.540 This is what happened.
00:08:21.680 Notification.
00:08:22.160 Boom.
00:08:22.300 This is what happened.
00:08:22.980 And we're doing our work.
00:08:23.840 We're doing what we're doing.
00:08:24.780 And then boom.
00:08:25.240 That adds anxiety.
00:08:26.080 That adds anxiety.
00:08:26.840 That adds anxiety.
00:08:27.600 That adds anxiety.
00:08:28.240 And we're trying to get everything done.
00:08:29.800 So how do you live
00:08:30.960 and lead
00:08:31.880 and build
00:08:32.520 in a world
00:08:33.240 where so many things
00:08:34.500 are going on simultaneously?
00:08:37.020 That's what we're going to talk about today.
00:08:38.440 And the good news is this.
00:08:39.380 There is a formula to all of this.
00:08:41.420 There is a formula to all of this
00:08:43.400 as long as you become aware of it.
00:08:44.780 Okay.
00:08:45.320 So let me start off with the first thing.
00:08:46.960 Let me start off with the first thing
00:08:47.920 I want to talk to you about.
00:08:49.340 The difference between
00:08:51.640 being depressed
00:08:54.200 and being bitter
00:08:55.200 versus being anxious
00:08:56.340 and having panic attacks
00:08:58.120 panic attack
00:08:58.880 is a byproduct
00:09:00.880 of anxiety attacks.
00:09:02.880 And so
00:09:03.280 on one side
00:09:04.440 you have panic attacks
00:09:05.260 and anxiety attacks.
00:09:06.140 On the other side
00:09:06.660 you have constant state of depression
00:09:08.020 and constant state of bitterness.
00:09:10.400 Very simple formula.
00:09:12.480 When you're bitter
00:09:13.340 and you're depressed
00:09:14.400 your mind is thinking about the past.
00:09:17.080 When you're anxious
00:09:18.180 and you're having anxiety
00:09:19.720 your mind is thinking about the future.
00:09:22.760 So anytime you're going through
00:09:24.460 these two states
00:09:25.180 it's important for you
00:09:26.180 to remind yourself
00:09:27.060 to say
00:09:27.500 okay
00:09:28.140 I can't do nothing
00:09:29.280 about the past.
00:09:30.280 I cannot do nothing
00:09:31.000 but that person said
00:09:32.260 they were right
00:09:33.500 and I told you so
00:09:34.600 and they're right
00:09:35.160 maybe you were wrong
00:09:36.040 and you're constantly thinking about
00:09:37.420 replaying that in your mind
00:09:38.640 and that's creating
00:09:39.660 to be depressed.
00:09:40.960 So your challenge
00:09:41.520 is not anxiety
00:09:42.140 your challenge is depression.
00:09:43.740 Well you need to get out
00:09:44.560 of that state
00:09:44.960 because you can't do nothing
00:09:45.620 or you're spending too much time
00:09:47.720 in the future
00:09:48.160 anxiety
00:09:48.700 so when you identify this
00:09:50.860 it's trying to bring yourself
00:09:51.800 back in the middle
00:09:52.360 and say the only thing
00:09:53.000 I can control right now
00:09:53.980 is this
00:09:54.420 and this is what I'm going to try
00:09:55.900 to control.
00:09:56.560 So in understanding that part
00:09:59.020 and balancing it
00:09:59.840 is one thing
00:10:00.480 but the other side
00:10:01.200 is also knowing the difference
00:10:02.320 between fear and anxiety
00:10:05.440 because fear and anxiety
00:10:07.580 the only difference
00:10:08.560 between fear and anxiety
00:10:09.720 is the timeline
00:10:11.020 and the lifespan
00:10:12.440 because fear is sudden
00:10:14.300 it comes
00:10:15.080 it goes
00:10:16.080 anxiety has a longer lifespan
00:10:18.860 I'll explain
00:10:19.700 I'm afraid
00:10:21.940 I heard something downstairs
00:10:23.380 what is it?
00:10:24.960 Let me go downstairs
00:10:25.620 to see what it is
00:10:26.560 maybe someone's trying
00:10:27.700 to open a door
00:10:28.380 in your tents
00:10:29.500 you go downstairs
00:10:30.520 it's your dog
00:10:31.480 okay
00:10:32.400 boom
00:10:33.260 22 seconds
00:10:34.080 fear is gone
00:10:34.800 anxiety
00:10:35.620 oh my god
00:10:36.620 my baby is doing 6 months
00:10:38.100 how am I going to handle this baby
00:10:39.240 I've never been a father before
00:10:40.360 somebody told me
00:10:41.300 I'll never be a good father
00:10:42.160 I don't know what a kid is
00:10:43.060 oh my god
00:10:43.720 there's no
00:10:44.060 what book do I read
00:10:44.740 what if I can't afford it
00:10:45.780 it's going to be expensive
00:10:46.440 now I'm not going to sell
00:10:47.200 I'm not going to
00:10:47.560 okay that's future
00:10:48.700 future future
00:10:49.280 anxiety
00:10:50.020 fear
00:10:50.880 anxiety
00:10:51.620 there's a big difference
00:10:52.660 between both
00:10:53.360 and it's simply
00:10:54.460 a lifespan
00:10:55.320 now
00:10:55.800 anxiety
00:10:57.740 is actually
00:10:59.440 a part of our body
00:11:00.480 so
00:11:00.800 anytime
00:11:01.600 we are anxious
00:11:03.140 or we're afraid
00:11:04.240 our body produces
00:11:05.740 adrenaline
00:11:06.760 as a way
00:11:08.120 to solve
00:11:09.200 that issue
00:11:10.260 so
00:11:10.820 adrenaline
00:11:11.300 you're in a situation
00:11:12.020 where you're going to get into
00:11:12.580 a fight with somebody
00:11:13.260 all of a sudden
00:11:13.720 your energy is low
00:11:14.400 boom
00:11:14.780 adrenaline
00:11:15.280 you're ready to fight
00:11:15.980 because there's danger
00:11:16.900 somebody's fighting
00:11:18.040 your body produces adrenaline
00:11:19.580 to be ready for that
00:11:20.620 there's war
00:11:22.260 there's attack
00:11:22.880 boom
00:11:23.240 your body produces adrenaline
00:11:24.380 on how to solve that situation
00:11:25.460 right
00:11:25.740 but
00:11:26.400 anxiety attacks
00:11:28.100 is like an alarm
00:11:29.140 it's like an alarm
00:11:30.420 fire alarm
00:11:31.900 some fire alarms
00:11:33.420 are more sensitive
00:11:34.440 than others
00:11:35.200 some people
00:11:35.820 the slightest little thing
00:11:37.080 gets them to go into the state
00:11:39.020 and you've got to control
00:11:40.620 the knob
00:11:41.240 of how sensitive
00:11:42.480 your fire alarm is
00:11:44.440 when you're thinking
00:11:45.460 you're afraid
00:11:46.060 when you're thinking
00:11:46.640 you're having an anxiety attack
00:11:47.880 it's really not that big
00:11:49.740 of a deal
00:11:50.160 lower the
00:11:51.000 you know
00:11:51.880 intensity
00:11:52.620 of how sensitive
00:11:54.020 your fire alarm is
00:11:54.940 so now
00:11:55.240 all that stuff
00:11:55.940 being said and done
00:11:56.780 I want to talk to you about
00:11:59.040 what are some of the symptoms
00:12:00.640 of actual anxiety attacks
00:12:03.380 and anxiety disorders
00:12:04.500 so let's talk about
00:12:05.540 the general symptoms
00:12:06.460 of anxiety
00:12:07.140 okay
00:12:07.460 number one
00:12:08.240 is
00:12:09.080 a challenge with sleeping
00:12:10.720 okay
00:12:11.400 when you're anxious
00:12:12.320 you can't go to sleep
00:12:13.180 because your brain
00:12:13.740 has gone all over the place
00:12:14.740 and if you
00:12:15.180 don't let your
00:12:16.360 imagination
00:12:17.200 because typically
00:12:17.920 people who
00:12:18.580 have more anxiety attacks
00:12:20.740 and more anxiety
00:12:21.480 they have an imagination
00:12:23.100 bigger than the average mind
00:12:24.500 because
00:12:24.740 it just goes places
00:12:26.740 right
00:12:27.120 so challenge sleeping
00:12:28.340 because your brain
00:12:28.980 is going all over the place
00:12:29.820 you're thinking about
00:12:30.360 so many different things
00:12:31.340 two
00:12:32.140 irrational fears
00:12:33.180 everybody's got fears
00:12:34.360 you know
00:12:34.660 spider
00:12:35.120 snake
00:12:35.740 dark
00:12:36.740 height
00:12:37.420 but irrational fears
00:12:39.020 that are non-existent
00:12:40.480 that's going to give you anxiety
00:12:42.220 three
00:12:42.500 muscle tension
00:12:43.260 is a symptom of anxiety
00:12:45.560 four is chronic indigestion
00:12:47.080 IBS
00:12:48.040 you've heard of it
00:12:48.580 irritable bowel syndrome
00:12:50.000 that's part of
00:12:51.240 symptoms
00:12:52.260 five
00:12:53.040 stage fright
00:12:53.700 if you have to speak on stage
00:12:54.920 and all of a sudden
00:12:55.440 you're having too much anxiety
00:12:56.340 because you're afraid of speaking
00:12:57.180 in front of everybody
00:12:57.760 again
00:12:58.280 because of what other people think
00:13:00.680 it's part of it
00:13:01.460 six
00:13:02.220 panic attacks
00:13:03.420 panic attacks
00:13:04.120 feel like a heart attack
00:13:05.160 but it's not a heart attack
00:13:06.100 shortness of breath
00:13:06.940 sweating
00:13:07.840 your hands are going to sweat
00:13:09.020 shaking
00:13:10.540 a possible
00:13:11.660 shakiness
00:13:13.360 you may feel like you're having a seizure
00:13:14.760 chest pain
00:13:15.360 stomach pain
00:13:16.000 fainting
00:13:16.540 all a part of it
00:13:17.980 and a lot of anxiety
00:13:19.120 could lead to panic
00:13:20.400 if you don't control your imagination
00:13:22.200 flashbacks
00:13:24.020 if you're constantly reliving
00:13:25.880 embarrassing moment
00:13:27.580 of your life
00:13:28.400 or things that you did
00:13:29.640 that mess with your mind
00:13:32.380 I was watching a video
00:13:33.320 the other day
00:13:33.880 that dunk
00:13:34.400 that Vince Carter
00:13:35.180 dunked on a 7 foot 2 inch guy
00:13:36.800 and this 7 foot 2 inch guy
00:13:38.840 had the opportunity
00:13:39.680 to come and play in the NBA
00:13:40.880 in the Olympics
00:13:41.640 Vince Carter
00:13:42.900 6'6
00:13:43.520 jumps over a 7 foot 2 guy
00:13:45.080 well
00:13:45.800 he got the offer
00:13:47.060 to come to the NBA
00:13:47.820 the only reason
00:13:48.380 he didn't accept it
00:13:49.160 is because
00:13:49.480 he was so embarrassed
00:13:50.580 that it was the most viewed
00:13:52.020 dunk of all time
00:13:53.200 that he didn't want to come
00:13:54.500 play in the NBA
00:13:55.080 until today
00:13:55.540 he struggles with it
00:13:56.480 this guy
00:13:57.900 because it was an embarrassing moment
00:13:59.220 he kept replaying
00:14:00.720 reliving in his mind
00:14:02.780 that's going to create anxiety
00:14:04.040 number 8
00:14:04.940 compulsive behavior
00:14:06.140 feeling like you have to be perfect
00:14:08.200 that's going to create anxiety
00:14:09.400 your family
00:14:10.480 maybe you had a military father
00:14:12.520 that was
00:14:12.820 you have to be perfect
00:14:13.600 everything's got to be perfect
00:14:14.640 that's going to create anxiety
00:14:16.100 compulsive disorders
00:14:17.080 thinking they have to do
00:14:17.820 everything right
00:14:18.700 that'll create anxiety
00:14:20.040 self-doubt
00:14:21.240 a little bit of doubt
00:14:22.040 is healthy
00:14:22.780 because you
00:14:23.400 want to prove to yourself
00:14:24.920 that you can overcome it
00:14:25.800 but a constant self-doubt
00:14:27.180 it's going to create
00:14:28.220 a lot of anxiety
00:14:29.080 for you as well
00:14:29.760 so how to fight off anxiety
00:14:31.060 okay
00:14:32.420 very simple
00:14:34.400 always
00:14:34.900 if you're having anxiety
00:14:37.020 and it's a real symptom
00:14:38.260 of anxiety
00:14:38.920 you always
00:14:40.380 the breathing
00:14:40.980 go back to
00:14:41.680 trying to breathe
00:14:42.560 the way you sleep
00:14:43.420 because the best state
00:14:44.880 of breathing
00:14:45.840 we do is when we're sleeping
00:14:46.840 and we're the calmest
00:14:47.800 we're breathing
00:14:48.260 right
00:14:52.440 that's the way you breathe
00:14:53.740 when you sleep
00:14:54.340 try to breathe like that
00:14:55.580 and it generally works
00:14:56.940 two
00:14:57.280 accept that you're having
00:14:58.580 a little bit of anxiety
00:14:59.480 it's okay
00:15:00.040 you're having anxiety
00:15:01.260 process it
00:15:02.280 am I thinking about the past
00:15:03.460 no that's depression
00:15:04.280 I'm not being depressed
00:15:05.140 right now
00:15:05.600 I'm not bitter right now
00:15:06.840 I'm anxious right now
00:15:07.680 because I'm thinking about the future
00:15:08.680 can I do anything about it right now
00:15:09.960 no
00:15:10.420 come present
00:15:11.180 good
00:15:11.500 accept it
00:15:12.220 three
00:15:12.880 your brain
00:15:14.420 if you allow your brain
00:15:15.600 your brain will
00:15:16.540 will
00:15:17.400 will play tricks on you
00:15:19.220 regularly
00:15:19.920 okay
00:15:20.260 but remember
00:15:20.780 you're in charge of your brain
00:15:21.740 so
00:15:21.960 let me give you an analogy
00:15:23.060 let's just say a dog
00:15:24.000 I have two dogs
00:15:24.680 so you walk your dogs
00:15:25.660 on a leash
00:15:26.140 and generally
00:15:27.280 where you don't want your dogs
00:15:28.420 to pee
00:15:28.720 you can pull the leash
00:15:29.460 and they won't pee
00:15:30.080 when they raise their leg
00:15:31.020 take them to the next place
00:15:32.160 next place
00:15:32.600 next place
00:15:32.900 you pick and choose
00:15:34.020 here's okay
00:15:34.700 and they go pee
00:15:35.500 in your own brain
00:15:36.940 you can pull
00:15:37.980 the places your brain goes
00:15:39.240 because there's one person
00:15:40.300 that's the captain
00:15:41.220 under your brain
00:15:41.900 and that's you
00:15:42.500 you dictate
00:15:43.440 where your brain needs to go
00:15:44.380 change it up
00:15:44.960 very quickly
00:15:45.740 change your state
00:15:46.800 you leave that place
00:15:48.040 and you forget about it
00:15:49.120 and literally within
00:15:49.900 30 seconds
00:15:50.880 you forgot what you were
00:15:51.800 worried about
00:15:52.580 and being anxious about
00:15:53.620 and the last one
00:15:54.800 is self-questioning
00:15:55.580 actually when it's happening
00:15:56.540 I'm asking
00:15:56.940 why am I having an anxiety
00:15:58.500 why is this anxiety
00:16:00.240 being created right now
00:16:01.020 why am I thinking like this
00:16:02.080 why is this taking place
00:16:03.080 and as you go through it
00:16:04.440 you say
00:16:04.700 oh
00:16:05.060 okay
00:16:05.820 this is not a big deal
00:16:06.860 it's fine
00:16:07.500 I'm going to be okay
00:16:08.400 and you move on
00:16:09.700 and when you do do that
00:16:11.060 it's almost like graduating
00:16:12.460 that state of anxiety
00:16:14.440 and you feel incredible about it
00:16:16.040 because you can do
00:16:16.880 that same exercise again
00:16:18.820 so a few basic things
00:16:21.480 to help with anxiety
00:16:22.420 as well as this
00:16:23.260 one I said already
00:16:25.020 focus on the present
00:16:26.020 two
00:16:26.820 do something
00:16:27.700 that's a routine
00:16:28.640 go cook something
00:16:29.800 you know
00:16:30.280 go make a puzzle
00:16:32.620 go something
00:16:33.340 that's a routine
00:16:34.400 way of doing something
00:16:36.260 laundry
00:16:36.860 if you have a routine
00:16:37.720 on how you do laundry
00:16:38.640 it gets your brain
00:16:40.020 to do a routine
00:16:40.700 so you don't think about it
00:16:41.680 next one is exercise
00:16:42.800 there's nothing better
00:16:44.380 to release anxiety
00:16:46.180 than to exercise
00:16:47.560 and a constant
00:16:48.440 those who
00:16:49.000 are continuously exercising
00:16:50.960 that fear
00:16:51.600 that anxiousness
00:16:52.520 all leaves you
00:16:53.960 when you exercise
00:16:54.760 because your body's moving
00:16:55.820 if you're in a place
00:16:56.960 that you can't go
00:16:57.500 straight to the gym
00:16:58.140 go walk the stairs
00:16:59.040 go speed walk
00:17:01.200 go do something
00:17:02.060 where your body's moving
00:17:03.140 and that anxiety
00:17:04.420 will typically go away
00:17:05.600 and communicate your feelings
00:17:07.360 sometimes
00:17:07.880 not talking about it
00:17:09.800 with somebody else
00:17:10.500 is one of the biggest ways
00:17:11.540 to continue that state
00:17:12.840 is you hold it
00:17:14.020 that's the imploding part
00:17:14.980 talk about it with somebody
00:17:16.100 talk about it with a peer
00:17:17.200 if you're an entrepreneur
00:17:18.620 maybe you're not comfortable
00:17:19.640 sharing it with somebody else
00:17:20.680 find a peer
00:17:21.560 that's also an entrepreneur
00:17:22.520 that has been through
00:17:24.120 as well
00:17:24.380 talk to me
00:17:24.740 he'll generally tell
00:17:25.420 oh my god
00:17:25.800 I can't believe you're telling me this
00:17:26.640 it's happened to me as well
00:17:27.600 you're kidding me
00:17:28.540 no
00:17:28.820 how do you overcome this
00:17:29.880 oh you're an athlete
00:17:30.540 oh this is normal
00:17:31.700 it happens
00:17:32.160 how do you deal with this
00:17:32.840 oh my god
00:17:33.320 this is
00:17:33.700 okay so these are some of the things
00:17:35.460 you communicate with a spouse
00:17:36.500 communicate with a friend
00:17:37.420 and if your kids
00:17:40.180 or family
00:17:40.800 or somebody else
00:17:41.540 that's going through this
00:17:42.440 and you don't communicate
00:17:43.440 that with them
00:17:44.340 they're in that state
00:17:45.960 you'll ask yourself
00:17:47.080 why is that person
00:17:48.000 so anxious
00:17:48.600 depressed
00:17:48.920 it's probably because
00:17:50.100 they're going through
00:17:51.880 a certain process
00:17:53.420 that causes them
00:17:54.460 to have anxiety
00:17:55.100 you can actually help them
00:17:56.020 process that
00:17:57.440 with them
00:17:58.080 okay so
00:17:58.600 what intensifies
00:18:00.160 anxiety attacks
00:18:01.300 your anger
00:18:02.900 your anger
00:18:04.120 will intensify
00:18:05.360 your anxiety
00:18:06.260 so anger
00:18:07.880 is fuel
00:18:08.680 to anxiety
00:18:09.480 if you control
00:18:10.420 if you allow your anger
00:18:12.480 to get out of control
00:18:13.460 your anxiety
00:18:14.100 goes even higher levels
00:18:15.380 so anger
00:18:16.580 is generally
00:18:17.520 stemmed from
00:18:19.260 us
00:18:20.200 telling the world
00:18:22.340 that I have a problem
00:18:23.400 that I don't think
00:18:24.160 I can solve
00:18:24.780 that's what
00:18:25.640 the feeling
00:18:27.360 and emotion
00:18:27.760 of anger really is
00:18:28.560 I'm having a problem
00:18:29.500 I don't know how to solve it
00:18:30.280 I'm so ticked off
00:18:31.040 right now
00:18:31.380 okay
00:18:32.620 it's learning
00:18:34.260 how to
00:18:35.100 take that same passion
00:18:37.420 that anger
00:18:37.960 that you have
00:18:38.620 instead of
00:18:39.680 into feeling like
00:18:40.680 you can't solve it
00:18:41.480 try to come up
00:18:42.940 with a solution
00:18:43.540 and it goes away
00:18:44.460 short sentence
00:18:46.000 short lifespan
00:18:47.320 it has
00:18:47.760 if you can find
00:18:48.560 and use that same energy
00:18:49.500 of anger
00:18:49.900 to solve it
00:18:50.920 instead of staying
00:18:51.780 into it
00:18:52.160 as if you cannot solve it
00:18:53.340 that's all it means
00:18:54.080 next time you're angry
00:18:54.920 why am I angry
00:18:56.080 it's because
00:18:56.640 I'm trying to tell the world
00:18:57.740 that I have a problem
00:18:58.300 I can't solve
00:18:58.820 yes I can
00:18:59.480 stay present
00:19:00.740 can I solve it
00:19:01.540 great
00:19:01.800 it moves on
00:19:02.960 so
00:19:03.340 same thing with anger
00:19:06.680 some basic things
00:19:07.800 of breathing
00:19:08.260 taking the time out
00:19:09.200 do not bottle up
00:19:10.000 your feelings
00:19:10.700 accept responsibility
00:19:13.060 do not blame
00:19:13.960 a lot of time
00:19:14.540 when a bad relationship
00:19:16.200 or bad business relationship
00:19:17.620 or bad breakup
00:19:18.620 or something happens
00:19:20.220 that you're upset
00:19:21.340 at the other person
00:19:22.040 on what they did
00:19:22.560 you can't really
00:19:23.020 control anything on that
00:19:23.980 I can take responsibility
00:19:24.960 and see on what I can do better
00:19:26.160 and that's all I can control
00:19:27.480 I can get angry over them
00:19:28.480 because they don't want to change
00:19:29.220 maybe
00:19:29.440 and that's okay
00:19:30.020 it's not on me
00:19:30.900 maybe I didn't do something
00:19:31.800 that was right
00:19:32.340 and I can work on it
00:19:33.480 take responsibility
00:19:34.900 grudges
00:19:35.980 probably one of the
00:19:37.340 worst things we can do
00:19:39.020 it happens in family
00:19:39.940 friendships
00:19:40.320 business relationships
00:19:41.300 cold shoulder
00:19:42.300 I'm just not going to talk to him
00:19:43.820 I'm not going to call him back
00:19:45.640 I'm not going to do this
00:19:46.620 we hold this grudge
00:19:47.540 grudges hurt you
00:19:50.120 more than anything else
00:19:51.180 you've heard
00:19:51.720 the thing before
00:19:53.640 you know
00:19:54.020 holding a grudge
00:19:54.840 is kind of like
00:19:55.500 you're holding on to coal
00:19:56.800 it's on fire
00:19:57.600 and you don't throw it away
00:19:59.220 you hold on to it
00:20:00.080 and you're really the one burning
00:20:01.060 you know
00:20:01.980 it's letting go grudges
00:20:03.560 is a big part of anxiety
00:20:05.400 laughing it off
00:20:06.980 and accepting it
00:20:08.320 and trying to laugh off
00:20:09.720 at your own craziness
00:20:12.660 and your own madness
00:20:13.540 it's actually so effective
00:20:15.440 when you do that
00:20:17.060 obviously exercising
00:20:19.480 again
00:20:19.820 meditating
00:20:20.220 and praying
00:20:21.500 it's very very effective
00:20:22.820 quiet moment
00:20:23.600 pray
00:20:24.000 meditate
00:20:24.880 it's incredibly effective
00:20:26.620 when you do that
00:20:28.100 so
00:20:28.400 now
00:20:29.260 next thing
00:20:30.140 on how to stop
00:20:31.100 anxieties
00:20:32.400 from leading into
00:20:33.760 a panic attack
00:20:34.560 very basic
00:20:35.560 stop believing your brain
00:20:37.500 all the time
00:20:38.480 okay
00:20:39.000 your brain
00:20:40.000 is not right
00:20:40.920 all the time
00:20:41.640 they say
00:20:42.060 listen to your heart
00:20:43.160 not your brain
00:20:44.520 your brain
00:20:45.020 can really mess with you
00:20:46.400 if you listen to your brain
00:20:48.080 all the time
00:20:49.920 okay
00:20:50.400 so
00:20:51.280 a few things
00:20:52.180 with panic attack
00:20:53.080 has to do with your diet
00:20:54.080 and your diet is
00:20:55.220 avoiding the following
00:20:57.040 alcohol
00:20:59.020 nicotine
00:21:00.100 and coffee
00:21:01.040 can create anxiety
00:21:02.640 because you're just so
00:21:03.820 bottled up
00:21:04.900 and you're so wired up
00:21:05.940 and if you
00:21:06.480 do too much of that
00:21:07.620 you generally
00:21:08.160 ever see somebody
00:21:08.880 that drinks a lot of coffee
00:21:09.880 they're just so wired
00:21:11.040 well that's
00:21:11.500 that's anxiety right there
00:21:12.480 and anything is just
00:21:13.420 going to make it a bigger deal
00:21:14.380 than it really is
00:21:15.120 if you can avoid it
00:21:16.180 you can avoid it
00:21:16.900 I'm not a big fan of coffee
00:21:18.360 my staff and my teammates
00:21:19.780 will tell you
00:21:20.260 I'm insane
00:21:20.840 I'm crazy
00:21:21.420 but I'm not a big fan of coffee
00:21:23.140 my wife thinks
00:21:23.780 I'm nuts
00:21:24.300 but I don't drink coffee
00:21:26.400 because it amps me up
00:21:28.700 even to a whole different level
00:21:29.920 so
00:21:30.300 if you can avoid those things
00:21:32.060 that can also be a part
00:21:34.480 to minimize situations
00:21:36.400 for anger
00:21:37.000 exercise
00:21:37.480 again is a part of it
00:21:38.540 highly recommend meeting
00:21:39.800 with a dietician
00:21:40.660 or a nutritionist
00:21:41.420 someone that knows
00:21:42.180 what they're doing
00:21:43.200 to find out
00:21:43.720 with your blood type
00:21:44.540 to recommend things
00:21:45.240 that you ought to eat
00:21:45.860 and you shouldn't eat
00:21:46.600 it's very easy to do that
00:21:47.980 you pay somebody $100
00:21:48.700 $200
00:21:49.260 and they'll put that together
00:21:50.780 for you
00:21:51.080 they'll take your blood type
00:21:51.860 that's a very good thing
00:21:52.580 to do
00:21:52.920 if you meet with a dietician
00:21:54.540 you can always find
00:21:55.200 a good one
00:21:55.720 around
00:21:56.520 next one
00:21:57.080 that has to do with anxiety
00:21:58.240 and anger
00:21:58.760 is overcoming guilt
00:21:59.600 so let's talk about
00:22:00.240 overcoming guilt
00:22:00.920 I can't tell you
00:22:02.260 how many
00:22:02.760 friends and family members
00:22:04.880 I know
00:22:05.280 that had to overcome this
00:22:06.500 and some that took
00:22:07.400 10, 20, 30, 40 years
00:22:08.820 and
00:22:09.960 guilt
00:22:11.380 doesn't allow
00:22:12.640 to live a happy life
00:22:14.000 the sooner
00:22:15.260 you can identify
00:22:16.280 and overcome guilt
00:22:17.260 the sooner
00:22:17.700 you can live a happy life
00:22:18.880 all of these
00:22:20.600 are part of life
00:22:21.760 but entrepreneurs
00:22:22.480 experience this more
00:22:23.660 because
00:22:24.080 anxiety typically happens
00:22:25.920 to people that are
00:22:26.540 in more pressure type situations
00:22:27.940 military, athletes
00:22:29.080 TV, media, politics
00:22:30.940 and a debate
00:22:31.540 entrepreneur, business owner
00:22:32.820 and
00:22:33.700 let me explain some to you
00:22:35.240 the more you want to experience
00:22:37.540 the higher level of competition
00:22:39.000 the more of a likelihood
00:22:39.940 there is
00:22:40.560 that there's a possibility
00:22:41.440 of imminent anxiety
00:22:42.180 so
00:22:42.380 some people tell you
00:22:43.360 that's exactly why
00:22:44.380 I don't want to be an entrepreneur
00:22:45.320 an athlete
00:22:45.900 a military
00:22:46.380 that's fine
00:22:48.080 I want to get
00:22:49.100 the juice of life
00:22:50.000 and sometimes
00:22:51.220 the juice of life
00:22:52.000 means putting yourself
00:22:52.940 in situations
00:22:53.620 that you need to learn
00:22:54.900 how to cope with yourself
00:22:56.040 and if you do that
00:22:57.680 that's what leads
00:22:58.760 to becoming a leader
00:22:59.660 remember at the beginning
00:23:00.540 of the video
00:23:01.100 I have not yet met
00:23:02.500 a strong man
00:23:03.340 or a woman
00:23:03.960 without an easy past
00:23:05.280 with an easy past
00:23:06.320 because they don't go together
00:23:07.320 your body needs to be torn
00:23:11.060 to become a stronger muscle
00:23:13.320 that's the same thing
00:23:14.380 with a leader
00:23:14.980 and an entrepreneur
00:23:15.900 the bigger the empire
00:23:16.640 you want to build
00:23:17.060 sometimes you need to go
00:23:17.880 through the ripping
00:23:19.380 of the muscle
00:23:20.100 the ripping of the mind
00:23:21.260 the ripping of a new mindset
00:23:22.660 that you got to go through
00:23:23.780 to reach those new heights
00:23:25.180 overcoming guilt
00:23:26.080 guilt is a crippling
00:23:28.440 and it is important
00:23:29.540 emotion of human body
00:23:31.320 too
00:23:31.580 one
00:23:32.020 understand why you're guilty
00:23:34.140 two
00:23:35.020 acknowledge your guilt
00:23:36.440 three
00:23:37.260 empathize
00:23:38.540 because empathy
00:23:39.460 is the greatest human nature
00:23:40.660 and human emotion
00:23:41.460 and
00:23:41.700 you know
00:23:43.440 when you understand
00:23:44.280 someone else's pain
00:23:45.260 you are truly
00:23:45.960 on the path
00:23:46.580 to forgiveness
00:23:47.600 so you got to empathize
00:23:49.060 and why is that person
00:23:50.420 feeling that way
00:23:51.680 why did that person
00:23:52.480 do this
00:23:52.860 why is that person
00:23:53.560 if I was in that situation
00:23:55.200 how would I act
00:23:56.100 and why is that person
00:23:57.060 thinking
00:23:57.400 why did that person
00:23:58.180 do this
00:23:58.640 so empathize
00:24:00.180 then it's circumstances matter
00:24:02.220 no one
00:24:03.180 this is the one part
00:24:04.080 you know how we
00:24:04.860 we all do it
00:24:06.980 you know we watch a sport game
00:24:08.180 and so if I was LeBron James
00:24:09.420 I would have done this
00:24:10.060 if I was Kobe Bryant
00:24:11.000 if I was
00:24:11.520 you know
00:24:12.240 if I was the president
00:24:13.440 if I was this
00:24:14.360 if I was that
00:24:14.980 and if I was this actor
00:24:16.180 I would have never
00:24:16.920 we like to do this
00:24:18.420 if I was
00:24:19.140 I would do this
00:24:19.700 listen
00:24:19.940 no one
00:24:21.060 and I mean
00:24:21.660 no one
00:24:22.460 knows
00:24:23.300 every single detail
00:24:25.320 to any decision
00:24:26.340 any human being ever makes
00:24:27.640 no one ever does
00:24:28.720 we all want to say
00:24:30.440 that we would do
00:24:31.220 something differently
00:24:31.920 we're all guilty of it
00:24:33.240 but to overcome guilt
00:24:35.140 you kind of need to
00:24:36.540 you know
00:24:37.560 see what you could do
00:24:38.840 and
00:24:39.300 maybe try to have
00:24:40.700 as much information
00:24:41.460 about why the decision
00:24:42.280 that was made by that person
00:24:43.420 but circumstances matter
00:24:44.600 so
00:24:44.940 you can't sit there
00:24:46.680 and say
00:24:47.140 here's what that person
00:24:48.440 should have done
00:24:49.060 right
00:24:49.360 next
00:24:51.420 learn from your mistakes
00:24:52.540 easy
00:24:53.200 everybody's going to make them
00:24:54.160 learn from them
00:24:54.740 six
00:24:55.040 change
00:24:55.480 human beings
00:24:56.560 are capable of change
00:24:57.600 but it comes only with
00:24:58.520 extreme dedication
00:24:59.660 be nicer
00:25:01.660 be transparent
00:25:02.500 next
00:25:03.400 acknowledge toxic relationships
00:25:05.360 it's tough to
00:25:07.600 let go of toxic relationships
00:25:08.980 because sometimes
00:25:09.660 those people are your cousins
00:25:10.680 and they're your friends
00:25:12.140 of 10, 15, 20 years
00:25:13.340 and
00:25:13.660 we feel guilty
00:25:15.920 if we have to let go
00:25:16.880 of a toxic relationship
00:25:17.880 with a person
00:25:18.380 that's always negative
00:25:19.380 around us
00:25:19.940 and doesn't believe in you
00:25:21.380 and constantly bashes you
00:25:23.020 and constantly
00:25:23.540 re-reminds you
00:25:24.240 of things that you did
00:25:24.840 in the past
00:25:25.260 that were bad
00:25:25.760 and you can't be an entrepreneur
00:25:27.140 you know you can't run a business
00:25:28.260 you can't go out there
00:25:29.480 and look for me
00:25:30.120 like you don't have a degree
00:25:31.500 Patrick
00:25:31.920 you can't go work for Morgan Stanley
00:25:33.500 you don't know what it is
00:25:34.820 to take your license
00:25:35.340 you went to the military
00:25:36.220 because you weren't that smart
00:25:37.200 you're not the brightest
00:25:37.960 that whole thing
00:25:39.520 that's toxic
00:25:40.280 those relationships
00:25:41.280 need to be set aside
00:25:43.700 and you can revisit it
00:25:45.060 5-10 years later
00:25:46.080 and if they work on it
00:25:47.520 great
00:25:47.680 if they don't
00:25:48.220 maybe there's time
00:25:49.040 for a new relationship
00:25:49.880 that is going to appear
00:25:50.740 in your life
00:25:51.660 but you got to be strong enough
00:25:52.600 to let go of those relationships
00:25:53.720 to move on
00:25:54.440 8-forgive yourself first
00:25:56.640 then you'll forgive other people
00:25:57.620 the hardest person
00:25:58.240 to ever forgive is yourself
00:25:59.380 you know
00:26:01.080 there's a lot of people I meet
00:26:02.640 and they don't want to give it
00:26:03.520 everything they got
00:26:04.120 and I say
00:26:04.380 what is it
00:26:04.840 there's something you're dealing with
00:26:05.840 inside
00:26:06.140 you're bottling up
00:26:06.940 you got to forgive yourself
00:26:08.480 and the last one is obviously
00:26:09.580 Let It Go
00:26:10.200 the famous song
00:26:13.200 from
00:26:15.260 is it Frozen?
00:26:17.560 is it Frozen?
00:26:18.120 it says Let It Go
00:26:18.760 I've listened to that song
00:26:20.180 so many times
00:26:20.700 I can't even tell you
00:26:21.520 went to a kid's birthday
00:26:23.300 the other day
00:26:23.880 a kid is a year old
00:26:24.660 and my son was a year and a half
00:26:25.800 at that time
00:26:26.320 he thinks
00:26:27.900 what's the character's names?
00:26:30.720 what's the character's name
00:26:31.580 for Olaf?
00:26:32.600 Olaf and the girl's name
00:26:33.640 as well
00:26:33.880 what's the girl's name?
00:26:35.020 Elsa
00:26:35.380 Elsa
00:26:35.420 he thought Elsa was there
00:26:36.980 to visit him
00:26:37.640 you know
00:26:38.020 we had to listen to
00:26:38.880 Let It Go
00:26:39.320 a million times that night
00:26:40.480 and I walked away that night
00:26:42.300 saying Patrick
00:26:42.920 you just got to let it go
00:26:44.360 you know
00:26:44.740 from watching Frozen
00:26:46.360 anyways
00:26:46.680 you got to let it go
00:26:47.340 okay
00:26:47.520 so last one
00:26:48.060 Power to Change
00:26:49.500 I did a video
00:26:50.100 on how to create a habit
00:26:51.240 and there's a formula
00:26:53.500 on how to create new habits
00:26:54.560 and how to get rid of bad habits
00:26:55.720 link is on the bottom
00:26:56.860 if you haven't seen it
00:26:57.580 go watch that episode
00:26:58.560 as well
00:26:58.840 because it has a lot
00:26:59.580 to do with this
00:27:00.180 on learning
00:27:01.080 how to create new habits
00:27:02.200 but the power to change
00:27:03.760 our brain
00:27:04.560 hates change
00:27:06.020 remember
00:27:06.420 the brain doesn't like change
00:27:08.400 they make sure
00:27:09.900 it remains the same
00:27:10.960 and stays comfortable
00:27:12.020 it's on you
00:27:13.000 the programmer
00:27:14.620 of the brain
00:27:15.500 to make that change
00:27:16.900 if you the programmer
00:27:18.020 doesn't do it
00:27:18.840 it won't change
00:27:19.540 but you're in charge
00:27:20.260 of the programming
00:27:20.880 so the power of change
00:27:22.560 one
00:27:22.780 understand the need
00:27:23.700 to change
00:27:24.420 two
00:27:25.140 condition your brain
00:27:26.800 on how to change
00:27:28.400 three
00:27:29.180 expect friction
00:27:30.420 your brain
00:27:30.980 is going to fight you
00:27:32.240 on the new change
00:27:33.120 that you're trying to make
00:27:34.060 four
00:27:34.900 do not expect results
00:27:36.080 overnight
00:27:36.500 it will not happen
00:27:37.380 overnight
00:27:37.680 five
00:27:38.780 be realistic
00:27:39.720 six
00:27:40.760 have a certain time limit
00:27:42.280 seven
00:27:43.040 get comfortable
00:27:44.500 meaning
00:27:45.160 staying
00:27:46.040 in your comfort zone
00:27:47.640 will never allow you
00:27:48.820 to realize your change
00:27:49.800 so get uncomfortable
00:27:51.340 is the word
00:27:53.100 get uncomfortable
00:27:54.040 it's going to be difficult
00:27:55.420 at times
00:27:56.120 when you're going through it
00:27:58.200 eight
00:27:58.900 keep yourself motivated
00:28:00.400 and nine
00:28:01.040 adapt
00:28:01.940 your goals
00:28:03.040 so
00:28:03.600 to recap
00:28:04.720 today's message
00:28:06.180 on what I
00:28:07.200 eventually
00:28:08.360 had to do
00:28:09.760 to
00:28:10.440 that helped me out
00:28:12.040 was
00:28:12.900 I was trying to do
00:28:14.880 20 different projects
00:28:16.140 at the same time
00:28:17.120 and one of the things
00:28:18.640 that's helped me out
00:28:19.660 tremendously
00:28:20.660 is
00:28:21.960 minimizing
00:28:23.260 all of these
00:28:24.800 multiple
00:28:26.080 activities
00:28:27.380 or
00:28:28.440 projects
00:28:29.260 that I'm working on
00:28:30.220 to
00:28:30.860 lesser things
00:28:31.920 to put my focus on
00:28:32.960 the fewer things
00:28:33.960 you can put your focus on
00:28:35.040 the better you do
00:28:35.720 meaning
00:28:36.100 I have to worry
00:28:38.480 about my family
00:28:39.260 okay
00:28:39.860 my faith
00:28:40.280 my family
00:28:40.940 my health
00:28:42.260 my business
00:28:43.580 and
00:28:44.520 the friends
00:28:45.440 that I have
00:28:46.020 that matter to me
00:28:46.740 the most
00:28:47.240 and that's five things
00:28:48.900 and
00:28:49.700 stuff that I gotta do
00:28:50.860 with
00:28:51.380 hobbies
00:28:52.240 whatever else it may be
00:28:53.680 the more I can
00:28:54.380 minimize those things
00:28:55.800 the better it is
00:28:57.200 and the more efficient
00:28:58.420 I can be
00:28:59.140 in all areas
00:29:00.380 of my life
00:29:01.580 if I can minimize
00:29:02.660 the projects
00:29:03.800 I'm working on
00:29:04.560 you will become
00:29:05.820 more effective
00:29:06.480 the more you can
00:29:07.400 minimize the projects
00:29:08.220 you're trying to do
00:29:08.920 so
00:29:09.160 few books to recommend
