00:00:00.000 today whether it's uh uh doom score on scrolling right or the dopamine detox and porn tiktok
00:00:07.900 gaming social media overstimulation we are like all over the place right you're like oh my god
00:00:11.680 i'm seeing a bit how many likes how many follows how many this how much subscribe everything is
00:00:15.240 about there right so it creates a lot of uh anxiety because data's in our face right there
00:00:22.440 information's in our face right there so anxiety okay anxiety today we have more pressures to show
00:00:31.180 up to the public judgment is higher right what if this what if i feel what if i fall what if it's
00:00:37.600 bare what if i get embarrassed and humiliated in front of everybody what do you tell a jordan
00:00:43.560 peterson in 2016 before he's going to get on this on how to deal with anxiety what do you tell a
00:00:50.200 17 year old kid who is comparing himself to his friends and his classmates is dealing with anxiety
00:00:55.240 what do you tell a 28 year old that is thinking about getting married and he's in a relationship
00:01:00.760 but he doesn't know if he's ready to get married and he has so much anxiety thinking about the
00:01:04.600 future what do you tell these folks two things fix your diet and go in nature because i think that
00:01:11.960 when we go into raw nature everything makes more sense i think a lot of the symptoms broadly for
00:01:19.760 humans that we're suffering from now are because of the way we've come become divorced from nature
00:01:23.840 it's just when i'm out surfing in costa rica and you're in a huge ocean oh everything makes sense
00:01:31.380 you cannot stand in front of a mountain at a lake by yourself with people you care about and think
00:01:36.180 oh you know i it's just everything starts to make sense you get perspective tell me why
00:01:41.180 i think that as humans we've we are connected to nature in ways that very few people are talking
00:01:46.180 about we're trying to become more and more civilized right and i think that we need we
00:01:52.520 need nature not we don't need to live in the woods you know you don't need to be um a hermit
00:01:58.300 but we actually need to go into raw nature to keep perspective on our lives you ever look at
00:02:04.220 the stars and think whoa we are so small when was the last time you saw the stars like really
00:02:08.940 saw the stars honestly when i uh when i would walk my two dogs they both died about six months ago
00:02:16.660 seven months ago but whenever i would walk my dogs at 10 o'clock 11 o'clock at night because
00:02:21.700 that's when i would walk them i would always look at the stars so it's not something i've been i've
00:02:26.060 done the last few months it's pretty hard to look at the stars and and lack you just think i'm so
00:02:33.240 small. Whatever I'm worried about right now, I am a human being who apparently has consciousness
00:02:39.480 on a blue rock in the middle of a universe that is massive. You know, look, there are things that
00:02:45.600 happen in our lives that are stressful, but we are little organisms on a rock in the middle of
00:02:51.040 a massive universe. And I think we forget that. So just take a breath, get perspective, go into
00:02:55.600 nature and realize it's going to be okay. It's going to work out. You got to fix your diet. You
00:02:59.800 got to fix the biochemistry, but I think we need nature to keep us in the right frame. I do this
00:03:04.360 myself. I get worried, you know, about this stress or that stress or this business or that, and you
00:03:08.620 think, oh, look at the stars. On a really cloudless night, somewhere without a lot of light pollution,
00:03:14.300 there are so many, you've never seen stars. You're like, oh my God, this is beautiful. And I think for
00:03:18.560 the human organism, when we do that, when we're in front of a mountain and we can see the grandeur
00:03:23.020 and the scale of what is around us in the world, it does something to our parasympathetic nervous
00:03:28.680 system, this calming nervous system, even when we look at a horizon, we look at a view, why are
00:03:33.560 waterfront houses the most expensive? Because they come with calm. They come with parasympathetic
00:03:39.560 nervous system activation as you're looking at a vista. So much of what we're doing today
00:03:44.360 is right around us. We're looking at a phone. It's right in front of us. The podcast studio,
00:03:48.180 everything is 15 feet away. What if you could see a mile? Your brain completely changes. You just
00:03:54.500 get calm. You know, we're looking at a screen. How often as to, for us as humans, do we take
00:04:00.480 into a vista? That's grand, you know? And for most of us, it's going in nature, driving to an
00:04:04.800 overlook. Or if you're lucky enough to live in a house with a water view or a mountain view,
00:04:09.880 you've got it. That's why those houses are more expensive because we're calm there. Because that's
00:04:13.980 what our, we need that as humans. You need to see where you are. Being in environments like this,
00:04:18.300 I mean, it's amazing to be here with you on this podcast, but being environments like this,
00:04:21.600 This is stressful for us as humans.
00:04:24.300 No, I agree.
00:04:25.180 I agree on that part.
00:04:26.720 But give me, so those two hacks, both of them are long-term thinking.
00:04:31.220 Give me the part about how to control your imagination.
00:04:34.420 I have my own way of doing it.
00:04:35.860 I'm curious to know what you would say.
00:04:37.940 When your imagination goes off, okay, you're about to go into a big business meeting.
00:04:42.360 You're about to give a speech in front of, you know, thousands of people.
00:04:45.580 You're about to do a podcast that's a live stream.
00:04:48.340 This is pre-recorded is different.
00:04:49.660 You can edit.
00:04:50.720 Live stream is you're being judged every second, right?
00:04:53.020 It's just going, going, going.
00:04:53.960 Most people cannot do a live stream because it's too much.
00:04:57.640 You're about to give a speech in front of your 30 students in high school,
00:05:02.040 and they're judging you.
00:05:03.000 They're looking at you.
00:05:04.140 What do you tell yourself to control your imagination at that time?
00:05:07.480 You know, there are breathing techniques.
00:05:08.920 In terms of self-talk, I think you just have to, when you are,
00:05:13.580 when what you are doing in those situations is aligned with something you're passionate about,
00:05:18.000 I fall back to that personally.
00:05:19.540 You know, before this podcast, I'm thinking, oh, I hope I hope I'm coherent. I hope I'm clear on this podcast. I hope I can deliver value. And what I go back to from myself is, well, you know, I've done the preparation. I've worked for this. I've I've done my research. You know, I've done my research.
00:05:37.020 It's like when I used to do running races.
00:05:38.700 The hay is in the barn, they would say.
00:05:40.520 You know, you've done the training.
00:05:42.360 And if you've done the training and you've done the preparation
00:05:45.220 and you have a real passionate emotional connection to what you're doing,
00:05:50.220 that's going to come through and you're going to be fine.
00:05:52.100 People are going to see that.
00:05:53.140 You know, I think that some of the most meaningful feedback
00:06:00.140 that I get from people in my audience
00:06:01.740 is that they can see passion and intention
00:06:06.980 come through in my content.
00:06:08.440 And that's not something I'm trying to do,
00:06:10.200 but that makes me feel good, Pat.
00:06:11.460 It makes me think, oh, okay,
00:06:13.480 maybe I'm doing it somewhat right.
00:06:15.040 I can always get better.
00:06:15.920 But if people that see my content
00:06:18.480 can tell that I care about the quality of their life,
00:06:23.260 I've been successful.
00:06:25.100 That's the most important thing for me,
00:06:27.300 that if my actual genuine interest
00:06:31.000 in giving people value that will improve the quality of their life comes through that's i
00:06:36.180 think i'm always a little bit surprised that people follow you know but that that would probably be my
00:06:42.140 guess for why people find value or like what i do if they like what i do you're very sincere i'm
00:06:47.940 telling you i don't know if i told you the first time maybe i did when we were together my wife
00:06:52.980 would send me videos of you and you know which videos the ones when you go on the market yeah
00:06:57.380 and you're like at walmart or target or whole foods and you're like let me tell you about this
00:07:00.560 Let's take a look.
00:07:01.100 Let me tell you about this.
00:07:01.840 Let me tell you about this.
00:07:02.460 And you would kind of go through it.
00:07:05.120 But it's something a lot of people deal with today, anxiety.
00:07:08.340 And I think half the time it's here, it's preparation,
00:07:11.460 it's spending too much time in the future, you know,
00:07:13.440 it's spending too much time, what if this goes wrong?
00:07:15.300 What if that goes wrong?
00:07:16.200 And do you believe in God yourself?
00:07:18.320 I believe in something bigger than us.
00:07:21.120 I don't know that I call it God, but I believe in something bigger than us.
00:07:23.700 Do you meditate?
00:07:24.300 Do you pray?
00:07:24.940 I do.
00:07:25.780 I talk to something bigger than us.
00:07:28.400 Sometimes I call it the universe, whatever.
00:07:29.680 Yeah, I'm sort of ecumenical, perhaps.
00:07:32.280 Got it.
00:07:32.740 So do you think that gives you an element of believing the future looks bright
00:07:37.520 and it kind of brings a calming feeling to you?
00:07:39.520 It helps.
00:07:40.380 It definitely helps.
00:07:41.840 And, you know, people will sometimes say to me something that kind of hits at a core level.
00:07:47.240 Like they might say, Paul, well, you've been given a gift.
00:07:50.560 And I think, okay, cool.
00:07:52.360 I should be grateful for that.
00:07:53.360 If I have the ability to speak in a certain way,
00:07:55.920 to be a conduit for ideas
00:07:58.320 that probably don't even come from me, Pat.
00:08:00.680 They probably come from something bigger than me.
00:08:02.560 And that's a gift.
00:08:03.600 And my job is just to be the best funnel
00:08:05.640 for that information.
00:08:06.760 And that's bigger than me.
00:08:09.100 That's bigger than me.
00:08:09.860 You don't have kids yet.
00:08:10.800 Not yet.
00:08:11.340 You want to have kids.
