EARLY BIRDS #10: THE PASSING OF TIME

How we spend our energy, focus and attention directly affects how we perceive the passing of time. Bonding with your special someone can make 6 hours feel like a fleeting moment of bliss. Every second is savored as though it could be your last.

Whereas waiting for a connecting flight to take you home can feel like an eternity, as Reggie puts it “It’s all about the investment of time into what you value”.

YOUR VALUES; are what make you into you. They are your fundamental beliefs that guide your actions, motivations and behaviors throughout your life.

You may ask “WHY SHOULD I GIVE A FUCK ABOUT VALUES, WE ALL ON EARTH AND WE ALL WILL DIE ONE DAY, WHY DOES IT MATTER.”

“Because unless you plan to end yourself in the next 5 seconds, you will spend the rest of your life interacting with your environment, the people around you and their habitats… You’d think it useful to understand what in this massive world is important to you???

Of course you could always live a life of responsibility free bliss drugged out your mind with a VR headset one tuning you permanently into fantasy land… That way you are nice and controllable, unlikely to stir up political trouble or cause a fuss, just how big government want you.

What do you value? Money? Honesty? Loyalty? Integrity? Time?

Have you ever taken a moment to question what it is that you actually value.  Then see how your daily actions feed or starve your own values.

Once you know this, you will have an easier time (pun) being able to allocate the precious hours, minutes, seconds of your day.

Stay frosty

It’s so easy to look at a sunny day and complain about a single cloud in the sky

A plate full of food in front of you and firstly notice the lack of salt or the speck of hair on the side.

A beautiful motor car could drive by yet if it had an ugly person driving it we may scold the person for their genetic mis fortune.

These and 1000 other examples of finding ways of seeing negative in positive.

What if each day we did our very best to try not focus on all the bad and instead found every reason to be grateful, happy and encouraged for the day ahead.

Smile, laugh and strive to become a better person!

HOW IS IT BEST TO GET YOUR DAY STARTED:

Each person has their own ways to crank up the day to high revs. Getting into that deep flow state of efficient work that allows ridiculously

High levels of work to be accomplished.

Your first hours are the foundation of the rest of the day. How you prime yourself with thoughts, sounds, sights and actions helps to set

Up everything else that follows.

We want to ask you PIPSTERS what kind of music gets you psyched and ready to take on the challenges ahead of you. Is it a certain playlist, Genre?

Artist?

A certain emotion you get?

It's valid to ask these questions to find out what best fits you. Why do we listen to music in the first place

To say the type of music one listens to does not affect a person’s mental state is a misnomer. Every sound, smell, taste, feeling and sight acts as sensory input to our brains. Our brains take this data and figure out what it all means… A vast proportion of the input we receive our brains Reticular Activation System regards as unimportant and either discards or relegated to the unconscious mind to sort out or otherwise.

When it comes to choice of music however, this is where it can’t be underestimated how vital it is to be aware of what you are listening to.

We are not trying to tell you what to listen to or what not to.

WE ARE SAYING THAT IT IS AN ABSOLUTE MUST TO LEARN TO BE GENUINELY CURIOUS AS TO WHAT MUSIC CAPTIVATES,

FEEDS, MOTIVATES AND ELEVATES YOUR MIND, BODY AND SOUL.

Is it an artist whose life story you relate to, is it a genre whos beat is unmatchable, or a poetic movie score that stokes the fires of your soul.

Music can be an incredible tool for you to become a better person, and learning how to start your day on a good note(mind the pun),

Could be the difference between an altogether awesome day and a bitter, mediocre and milksop day.

We had to to take a break, figure some things out within our own lives,

Topic of the day, HOW OFTEN DO WE ACT SUPER LAZY ON WEEKENDS.

Rise and shine on the hardest days.

What kind of willpower and self control does the average person possess on a Sunday morning.

Every reason and excuse to sit back and not care about the day.

"I've worked so damn hard for my day off, busting my ass to finally be able to enjoy a day to myself."

"I'm entitled to a day off, surely I deserve that, who are you to act like you spend your sunday better than I?"

Without judgement, critisism or condescention, we ask you this simple question, are you making the most out of this day off?

If you have any goals for yourself or vision for the future, is it an idiotic suggestion to propose that a day off could be used

for a huge deal of good?

We ask you to consider for a moment, is your life going exactly how you want it to. Is there any area of you life where you feel stuck, trapped, jammed or otherwise hindered?

Einstein said, you cannot use the same level of thinking that created a problem to solve it. Is it crazy to think that in the few hours that you have away from work each week, that your decisions matter more than you know.

Imagine the frightening thought of waking up and getting out of bed at nine am in the morning on a saturday and sunday. Where you actually give yourself the chance to make the best out of your day. Instead of waking up at 1 pm and automatically kicking back to watch tv,taking this time to build your life.

It all starts with the belief deep down inside that you can change your life for the better if you know what you are aiming for and you why this matters to you.

Sleep in for an extra 2 hours!, instead of waking at 7am typical work time, go till 9am. But get your ass out of bed and start chasing your passions...the things that actually matter to you.

REGGIE AND MONK were still hanging on a Tuesday from a ferocious sesh that occurred on the night of EARLY BIRDS 4.

Two days into the week and the after effects of the weekend were still in effect...

We delve into what someone can do to help them stay in tip top shape and recover energy for the next day's work and activities. After work activities can include everything from playing a sport, attending a book club, joining a gym, meditation, watching series, getting high on weed or getting drunk on booze.

We want to explore today how someone can use their time after work as effectively as possible to unwind and relax without getting hammered and suffering the consequences of a hangover or wasted evening on  the next day's work.

Let's take sports as an example,

You cannot understand and appreciate the long term effects of doing pilates, yoga, martial arts or any other exercise that involves flexibility, stretching and agility until you actually do it. When you wake up on a daily basis and your entire body feels fresh and rejuvenated, how does that improve in small ways every other aspect of your day???

1000 tiny improvements with your body and mind lead to a tremendous improvement in the overall wellness of your being…

Likewise, what is the effect of having a weekend hangover that spills over onto the weekdays, it just makes a mess of everything, and reduces your efficiency. A bad Monday increases the possibility of a bad Tuesday and the domino effect continues.

One of the best ways to allow yourself to unwind after a day's work is ensuring that you already have a head start on the events of tomorrow.;

Having food prepared and prepacked in a container to take with,

Setting out tasks for tomorrow the day before and reflecting back on the day you had allowed your subconscious to begin implementing problem solving for tomorrow giving you a tremendous head start.

MOST IMPORTANT 3 TASKS OF THE DAY!!!

List these down at the beginning of the day….. As well as leaving space for additional notes.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tRv_nJ0jpLg    episode 10

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4g-KRSxWdg4   episode 11

PRESENT, PAST AND FUTURE… Planning your tomorrow, reflecting on the day and living in the present combines the three modes of time.

HAPPINESS THAT COMES THROUGH COMPLETING AND FOLLOWING THROUGH WITH ONE'S GOALS, LEADS TO SELF INTEGRITY AND SET FOR TOMORROW'S SUCCESS.

“THE GREATEST SALESMAN IN THE WORLD- OG MANDINO” I will persist until I succeed…

Finishing our affairs for the day, the value of pushing that extra 1% in the day.

When your very identity and core is based around being he/she who gets all their stuff done no matter what.

Imagine the superpower of being able to create limitless energy within yourself to continue pursuing your goals, ambitions and aspirations no matter the cost of personal energy. Time to decide, what do you stand for and what are you willing to do to achieve your goals…. Do you even have goals set out???

The seeds of tomorrow are planted in the fields of yesterday.

An old African Proverb says “ The best time to start was 30 years ago, the next best time to start is now”.

We are what we think about, act, feel and believe on a daily basis.

How do you recover from an extremely hard weekend of partying, lack of sleep, dehydration... We don't have any experience with this nor do any of our associates, friends, colleagues and buddys... It's useful to know however... just in case one stumbles upon a mad rave with a music video being recorded... What do you do?   Water, fruits for vitamins and minerals, rehydration salts bought at any pharmacy, paracetamol, a hearty meal and a few prayers for good measure.  We made tremendous connections this weekend, going up and down talking to every person At a music event up in the mountains where a music video was being created by our friends.  It was a glorious weekend with great laughs, fun, banter and joy to be shared.  We also connected with @jen_j_now who we filmed a podcast with @manlikeallaninho about sex, biology and our natural bodily processes, avoiding STD's covering Sexual preferences.   All in all a good night, however one where Monk wandered off into nowhere for 3 hours and couldn't be found. Forgot everything and then when found snapped back to consciousness and next morning remembered nothing.  Guys drink responsibly, it's not worth getting yourselves hurt and injured... except to please women and impress your friends.  Also you can attain a special "DARWIN AWARD" for dying in stupid and amusing ways.. and you definately dont want to end up posted there.  " Also its not a pleasant feeling to NOT know what happened this weekend. We as humans like to know what is going on to keep ourselves sane and mentally stable."

 Have fun guys, stay safe.

SUPERPOWERS LIE DORMANT BEHIND YOUR VEIL OF LIMITING BELIEFS.      IF YOU CAN DREAM IT YOU CAN ACHIEVE IT - ZIG ZIGLAR   Envisioning the goal that you have set out is the most powerful skill leading to manifestation.    Believing in oneself to the point where you have no doubt that you will achieve the task at hand, no matter how many facts people throw at you.    Like saying “the stats show that someone of your caliber and skill set is not usually on the side of completion”, thank you for boosting my morals and desires to prove you wrong because now I KNOW for damn sure I will complete this task.    Being in this frame of mind is what unlocks the new realm of insane human abilities allowing us to seem inhumane.    Giving yourself the chance to take alternate routes of completing this task is what creates this BEAST inside us, through manifestation, belief, hope, trust and physical results.     You will find it much harder to implement pillars of structure in your life.   Unless  you are willing to consider different ways of learning, and adapting new information to past problems.    Planning has the effect as well of putting your subconscious to work to figure out solutions before hand and develop a strategic and tactical mind.

Being able to understand the capacity of our brains has been a continued topic a discussion point that, to this day no scientist have conclusive results to show exactly how much of our brains we use on a daily basis as an average.

We are able to conduct multiple tests to understand the level of brain activity during certain events by introducing specific thoughts, scenarios and multiple other stimuli. The most common tests are CAT scans alongside MRI which both indicate alternative brain levels of activity.

Reggie and Monk both attempt to unveil the uniqueness of our brains and how to actively stimulate certain parts of our cognitive minds to progressively increase the brain's capacity.

Tune in for more info and deeper analysis…

Another long awaited installment of WACKY WEDNESDAYS  WHERE THE TRUE MADNESS OF REGGIE AND MONK IS UNLEASHED!!  Buckle your life vests and prepare for madness!!

THE HUMAN TENDENCY to prefer bite size media. It’s less of an intimidation than having to listen to a 2 hour piece whilst allowing the maximum possible information potential. 1

It is a scientific fact that humans on average forget 50% of what they learn within an hour and 70% of what they learn in 24 hours. Our natural ability to concentrate wanes after 10 -40 minutes. When we spend any longer on a task we get diminishing returns from our time spent.

PRIMACY AND RECENCY:

The effect of PRIMACY is that you are more likely to remember what you learn in the beginning of a video, class, presentation or interaction, RECENCY is the higher likelihood of remembering what was learnt at the end of said video, class etc.

We figured by reducing the time of our videos to below 30 minutes, we maximize the attentive timespan of our viewers and get whatever points and information across in a secure and effective way.

ACCEPTANCE: WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO ACCEPT OUR LIFE CIRCUMSTANCES.

ACCEPTANCE IS A MENTAL SWITCH... "Life is the way it is, what can we do about it?". When we approach problems and challenges with a positive mindset based on a desire to grow and learn, every obstacle becomes an opportunity for self development. The alternative is "LIFE IS THE WAY IT IS, why bother trying to change anything at all?"

"IT IS WHAT IT IS" (IIWII) can be one of your greatest tools for creation or self destruction. You can find yourself in a bad situation doing something, stupid, shady and unwise all because you decided "F*Ck the outcome, YOLO". You Only Live Once, so why not live in a way that actually matters, because the alternative is living a life devoid of meaning where nothing matters and you are just counting days until your death.

YOU HAVE TO MAKE MISTAKES IN ORDER TO GROW: There are some mistakes you should avoid at all costs. REGGIE mentions in episode 10 about the MIDAS TOUCH, how we must go about life learning to make mistakes in the most effective way possible that leads to the greatest amount of learning and progress.

THERE ARE LIMITS TO THIS!!!: You don't need to murder someone, get sentenced to 30 years in prison, get educated while inside then return outside in order to realize murder is bad. Some people who have had horrendous life circumstances, brutal childhoods,

horrendous abuse, traumatic social circumstances know no other way other than rough roads and dark means to get ahead.

There are many convicted felons who do return to society with a desire to make a positive difference and in many ways we could say that this is part of their story. Karmically we could say that it took them going to prison and learning how to overcome their circumstances to act as an example to other inmates to show them what is possible. By same token, can we not also ask why it is necessary for the original murder and sentencing to occur before lesson is learn't?

I Monk, noticed I was developing this mindset of "Allowing the Temptation to get the better of me voluntarily. Video games, weed, masturbation, porn, cigarettes and laziness were excused as "WHAT IF I NEED TO BE TRYING OUT THESE TEMPTATIONS IN ORDER TO FEEL SHITTY ABOUT THEM AND REMIND MYSELF WHY I SHOULDN'T BE DOING THESE THINGS IN THE FIRST PLACE.

This mindset morphed into " WHAT IF I CAN MAKE FALLING INTO TEMPTATION THE GREATEST THING THAT CAN EVER HAPPEN TO ME". Not saying that it cannot happen, but simply that you are rolling the dice every time you try to get away with trying to turn a bad habit into a good outcome. The same time that was spent slacking off and messing around, could have been spent developing one's business, mindset, and good habits.
