Justin Wren is a humanitarian, author, journalist, former MMA fighter, and founder of the Fight for the Forgotten charity. After overcoming depression and addiction early in his MMA career, Justin embarked on a life-changing journey with the Mbuti Pygmy people of the Congo Basin rainforest. Inspired by a transformative vision, he founded Fight for the Forgotten to combat the global water crisis and expand its impact to serve the Batwa Pygmies of Uganda.   Key Takeaways     The Essentials: Personal practices, such as meditation, gratitude, and spending quality time with loved ones, are essential for maintaining a positive mindset and cultivating self-mastery.   Overcoming Depression and Addiction: Purpose-driven service can be a powerful tool for personal transformation and healing, as demonstrated by Justin's journey from overcoming depression and addiction to founding Fight for the Forgotten.   Empowering Communities: Providing tools, knowledge, and resources to develop sustainable livelihoods is a more effective approach to creating lasting change than short-term, unsustainable aid.   Sustainability and Rainforests:  Rainforests play a critical role in maintaining the Earth's ecological balance, and indigenous people, such as the Mbuti Pygmies, are essential stewards of these ecosystems.   How to Create Lasting Change: Collaboration between nonprofits and NGOs is crucial for creating a more significant impact and addressing complex global challenges, such as the water crisis and the displacement of indigenous communities.   It All Starts Within: Loving oneself and cultivating self-mastery is essential for being able to serve others effectively and create meaningful change in the world.     Sponsors and Promotions:   Henson Shaving:  Go to https://www.hensonshaving.com and enter DIVINE at checkout to get 100 free blades with your purchase.

Colt Balok, born in Tijuana, Mexico, and adopted at age two, grew up in San Diego among thirteen siblings. He moved to Albuquerque, New Mexico, in 2012 and in 2018, launched "The Colt Balok Show," an international talk show with over 1.3 million followers. The show, which Balok hosts and produces, focuses on love and human connection and features a mix of public figures and everyday individuals. Balok serves on the boards of the New Mexico Heart Gallery Foundation and the National Guard Youth Challenge Foundation.   Key Takeaways:     Choice in Perspective: Colt highlights how individuals have the power to choose their perspective and reaction to various life situations. He references a story about a monk who turns a mundane task into a spiritually enriching experience, illustrating that happiness and contentment are often a matter of choice rather than circumstance.   Therapeutic Value of Mundane Tasks: Seemingly mundane or arduous tasks, such as washing dishes or manual labor, can be therapeutic. These tasks allow for mental relaxation and can be a form of meditative practice, helping individuals find peace in the simplicity of the activity.   Impact of Attitude on Daily Life: One’s attitude towards everyday tasks can significantly affect one's mental health and happiness. Viewing chores as opportunities for mindfulness and growth rather than burdens can profoundly impact one's quality of life.   Personal Growth Through Routine Tasks: Routine tasks can contribute to personal growth by fostering patience, resilience, and a positive attitude. This mindset can transform routine or challenging tasks into opportunities for personal development.
