Notes from the Show:

As I'm inching closer to this babbling brook that I often walk by, I'm hoping you can hear it. Just the calm, the birds, the peace, right? Just for a moment before you start your day before you go rushing into whatever awesome dragons, I'm sure you're gonna have to fight today as a part of your life, your career, whatever it is. Let's just take a moment. Put all that on the shelf and let's focus on you. What do you need to be right today? What's one thing you're going to do to take care of yourself, To show yourself some love and respect and some care, right before you rush off into the world to go make the money to feed your kids or whatever it is, the thing you gotta get up and do just for a moment, stop. Reflect on you for a moment and check in. How are you doing? Are you holding up? Okay? And if the answer is no, What needs to change? And I'm talking about root causes, not surface level happiness, like getting a new house or a new car. Those things are great, but they do not lead to long lasting happiness or peace. You know that. What are the things the root cause, things that actually need to change to bring you some real serenity to your life? That's my question for you today as we get into the show called Ask bc Episode two as I walk away from the babbling Brook. Yes, I am outside. You were hearing correctly. Yes, you're going to hear me have labored breath at some point because I'm also on my workout trail. I'm not running, but I am walking fairly briskly. You could say up some very steep hills. So every once in a while you may hear me get labored in my breathing. But we're warriors. We're not gonna focus on things like that. That don't matter. Marcus really has taught us to never, ever waste a single moment on this earth, putting our attention on trifling things. Never waste your time thinking about and pondering trifling things like Why does he shave his moustache? Why does he wear body armor? Who cares? None of those things matter. They show that your brain is wildly creative and curious, which means you're smart, but it also means you've been conditioned to focus on things that don't mean anything and don't actually bring you any semblance of a sense of purpose. Peace of serenity. And I'm really starting to focus on peace and serenity when I talk to you guys and not happiness, because this lie of chasing happiness, that everybody this, this journey, that everybody is on to find their happiness. It's a fool's errand. It doesn't exist. There is no state of consistent, perpetual nonstop happiness that's called mania. It's a condition that has to be treated with medicine. Okay, you don't want to be happy all the time. What you want to be is not in pain. You want to be at peace and have serenity, and you want to know that everything you got up to do today is a part of a purpose that you actually care about. That's it. If we can fix those things, your life becomes exactly what you wanted to be. You woke up today to do exactly what you feel like you're a creator, puts you on this Earth to do, or if you don't have a creator, whatever your D n a decided you were supposed to be doing on this planet? Check. Okay. Do I have some semblance of peace and serenity about the things I'm doing? What are the obstacles that are preventing me from doing that? Because that's going to create anxiety and depression. Sure, by nature, for example, people talk about depression and anxiety like they're these nebulous disorders that come for you.
