Olympics considering Esports for the games?! If you have not heard of Twitch or any of the other online platforms which are blowing up the internet as far as views and followers..well then maybe you are a little un informed currently. So we will bring a few thing into light and perspective. If you have ever studied the markets or trends video games are massive and it's a massive industry, new game release sell tons of units! You match that with the #Youtuber craze of people watching people play video games...that's where Twitch came about I feel....and know you have a massive community that play video games, watch, comment, tip, and so on. So is it any different from way back when...Elvis Presley came out swinging his hips...it was a new thing a start to Rock and roll. And the generation before him was not use to it...and called it the Devil"s Music       So basically we chat about either we change with the times or we get left behind and complain about how it use to be back in the good old day's!!

Burning Nike Air - #ColinKaepernick

John Barrett who is from the other side of the world is fascinated by some of the news stories he hears about over here in #North#America

Today's being that #Nike has just signed C.K to a deal for it 30 year #anniversary. With all that has been going on since this guy took his first knee...its beyond amazing what has since happened.

My take was simple, there is no such thing as bad #publicity for either sides involved as they are both trending everywhere currently..

John hit the nail on the head as with all current events in the state of the world right now, it's here today gone tomorrow...and in a few days or weeks time this will not be talked about.

There are two side to the story those in favour and those against as again with everything in the world today...

But IYP is trying to find that middle ground where 2 side can collide in a positive state to discuss and and open a dialogue!

Breaking #Mental #Barriers

Well, another incredible topic we discuss today all about these mental barriers each and every one of us has and is trying to overcome!

Two different directions today as I speak about how the last month or so much has changed (it started back in May but has peaked in August) that I truly cannot #intellectually put it into words as it's something that maybe just can not always be described.

John Barrett tied into my rant perfectly with the point and case at hand of the 4 minute mile (and there are many other examples of this) when one person does what no one thinks is possible because it has never been done.

There are so many examples-of this in our #society but it is a fact that if the human mind is told or

Being of Service to Others

Our talk today is about the bigger picture — that next level #purposeand service to others.

When John Barrett asked me today about being of service to others I immediately remembered a movie we had watched back in my #sotozen class a few years ago. About how in Japan the older generations those whom were retired and later on in life where active in teaching and playing with the youth the pre school age children.

Such a different way of thinking and doing from our side of the world where our elders go into an old age home. So how does this relate to being of service.

Because we wake up with a purpose...a reason...an energy and mindset that there is something more important than just ourselves. Yes, at the base level we will all dropping or at least put #ego to the side.

Each one of us is capable of this with family, at work, and social gatherings. It is mandatory to take care of ourselves first, but it is also in our best interest to be of service to those around us it is like the circle of life!

We have a built a #community that has supported us and grown with us, so yes there are times we are tired, or not in the mood, but we have a responsibility not only to ourselves but to our community to show up and be better...to be of services!

Ignite Your Purpose - Episode 118

Putting it into Motion-Meet the #universe half way~

John Barrett practices what he #preaches and 10X's it. BOOM!!

So John decided to email a few of the people close to him on the island the lives on...just to chat and just to expand his #knowledgebase...no set agenda, but to just see where it took him. He got replies and set the meetings up.

When I woke up this morning I was blasted with messages to call him ASAP and there was major news and items we needed to discuss.

By John taking this action (no word of a lie) and in this one specific meeting for real changed the forward path of Ignite Your Purpose, because John meet with a BIG DOG that has been 10 Xing it for decades...and the idea's that came out of his head for us to implement along with the fact other may jump on board is a whole other level I do not think John and I took as an option just a few days ago...truly incredible!

Having said that...and this is why Ignite Your Purpose is different; we keep it real, we are not on a soap box preaching ...we are in the #streets or #trenches #slugging it out just like everyone else. So while our excitement was at 210%....There were certain points in the conversation that we both sat speechless (and we asked each other why) we were both IN FEAR of the unknown... saying things like well this seems like a lot of work, how long will it take, how much money will it take, do we have the skill set, can we do this.

How amazing it was to both of us that when a massive opportunity like this lands in your lap, you can almost kill it off before it even begins

Why do we Always Aim so low?

Such an interesting question, and such a deep response- 

The thing is that you MUST look inside for the answer, for me I can now remember the things that were said to me at very young ages and I mean through meditation and stillness the exact moments, the exact words, people and situations that lead me to this belief.

This belief was put into my head by others who 'A' did not believe in themselves or their abilities 'B' gave up and 'C' did not want me raising the bar very high for fear of failure!

Its time to ask ourselves the question Do you want to die trying or live just an average or low bar life? 

I know my answer to that one! It took a while, but I now KNOW!!

What is motivation?

In this chat we go from on extreme to the other, the one point we both agree on is that #motivation as with so many other topics we talk about has to be an inside job.

Because motivation is an up and down #rollercoaster some days you may peak and some days you may be in the valley...so it then becomes the question of what drives your motivation?

John Barrett spoke on many items that he puts up on his #manifest board that keeps him motivated towards his goal or goals...one of the many ways he drives himself to the end line.

I recall how my motivations have and will continue to change as everyday that passes I learn and evolve into something different. The past I was motivated by money to attain studio time to record music, then after that I was motivated to hit the next level in health to keep my skills, mindset and physical health on point for the long haul, currently I am motivated to serve others with my stories of negative to positive.

So what is motivation to you?

How many Chances?

So something that has be coming up for me lately as a lesson is this; that person it could be #friend #family member #husband #wife #boss#coworker you name it, but that one person in our life that we keep giving chances to. For what ever reason that may be.

For me I find that I personally #struggle with giving the extra chances because I want to make sure I am being and doing good all the time for those around me.

John Barrett made some great points, one being that he, as well as myself we almost always go to one extreme or the other. Meaning we at one point in our journey either cut them out of our life 100%. Then at some point later on during our transition period went the other way and all we tried to do was help, help, help and it was a one way street for us.

It makes it easier now for us that we understand somewhat that it's not at all about us. It's not our lesson to learn, the #universe is trying to teach them something and we could actually be interfering with their lesson and learning for their self improvement and #evolution.

So if someone ask's well thats one thing, but if they keep making a mistake or whatever it is to make us continue to give chances, well maybe it really is ok to step back with compassion and let them continue to do them!

To dangle on the edge of the cliff of life... is to be #Alive

John Barrett and I in this episode keep it #real as phuck. We talk about the fears that strangle us on a daily, yet we know we damn well know that to step into that fear, to learn from it, to overcome it...is the start of our growth and or #evolution on this process of being #human

It is far from easy but it reminds us of the saying that the #ancient#Greeks, #Romans and all those from a time long long ago use to say: "Is it not better to die standing then to live a life on your knees?"

It will dumb us down, stunt our growth and slowly kill us if we do not step into the unknown, that is where life is truly lived at. To remember what it truly feels like to be alive. To live 30, 40 , 50, 60 years repeating the exact same routine is to build your own safe room and live in it...in fear of what could be or may happen.

For the last 10 years I have known and tried to learn this lesson...it's only been the last 2-3 months that I have untied the rope and sailed my the boat out into the ocean, finally leaving the harbour of safety!

We thank you and we appreciate you for joining us on our journey.
