Talking Perspective -

Think about it truly if you visit someone one to two times a year and the average life span is 78 years old and they are in their 70 currently you really only have a few more times to see them! This is a very sobering fact, the type of fact that should #wake us up out of a stone cold sleep. We for some reason as being human do not really place a lot of weight on the present moment-instead we tend to think like we have infinity to live. So we dont really live it like it is our last moment. John and myself are in the middle of practicing what we preach. The universe is definetly testing us on the daily currently and we are doing our best to test the waters of balance between the ying and yang. Yet there are things we are both waiting on for maybe the perfect moment or the perfect logo or perfect SEO hacks...like John said let's just get on with it STOP the worry or the care's and just get on with it!!!

Patients You Must Have......

John Barrett has been itching to release all of our shows...we have been working endlessly to re bot formats, make sure all the tags are in to the proper areas, meta data, the proper write up's and so on. Currently we are waiting on our new logo design to be done so we can upload that across all platforms... then we will start the release.

Having said all of that we both just want to get it out...we both feel we have- #lost- time to make up for. Meaning we are very young in the game compared to the #veterans out there. Some doing it 8 plus years.

We see them just starting to implement things we are already doing so we know we are on the correct path...the eagerness, the piss and vinegar is just oozing out of us. "Slow down young grasshopper"

Yet we are trying to control ourselves we are trying (and doing pretty well I might add) patience....

We all need the ying and the yang so we need to be driven by our passion dreams goals and excitement and as well we have to implore the slow down times or the patience when implementing your vision!!

Have you been able to use paitence in your goals???

The Ying and The yang

John Barrett decided to be the inter viewer today and ask me some questions about the two totally different world I operate in.

How when you involve yourself more to one side then the other (lack of balance) the world then reflects a more one sided view .... and better yet how you can't appreciate one without the other 👊🙌❤️😳

I am of 2 worlds 1. Being of #sotozen and 2. Being of #KravMaga - the ying and the yang. How We fully appreciate understand and believe that what we feed our mind body and soul is then in fact what we end up viewing the world 🌎 as!

Take a listen and let us now what you think.

The Outsource Economy - The Bailout Lifestyle

I can't do it...

I don't know how to...

Mum/ Dad/ someone else will do it for me...

John Barrett and myself talk about an event I went through as a waited for 2 families who took up all the tellers time at a bank for the better part of 30 minutes as the parents asked the tellers to do all the work for their kids (early 20's) ya kid's... because the kid's just did not have the time to do it themselves and as well the kids found it to difficult which lead them to stress and possible anxiety.

I had to admit to John that even though I am 10 year's deep into the sotozen ways and lifestyle this brought me close to the edge!

As I sat there in amazement at what was going on in front of me... I thought about all that goes on in this world; from 3rd world countries, all the tragedies, all the heart break -then- to how it once was when immigrants came here with $10 dollars and somehow made it on their own

I was like who can you really be upset with????? Honestly?

Not the Kids..better yet young adults - not their fault because it's all they know,

The parents well they learned it from somewhere as well, or maybe they are trying to make up for not being there for their kids back in the day because they had to work?

We do some what live in a handout world these days.... so we ranted about the ways this has developed and what might be to come! Take a listen and let us know your thoughts!

What You Do - Or What You Want To Be

We chat about speaking our truth...and the mental blocks of becoming what it is you want to become and not what you are currently doing.

Example if you are currently "Not working" or unemployed does that mean that is what you do? Or could it be that you are taking time off to train heal study #empower yourself in a new endeavour, starting a new business....And so on.

John Barrett and myself go into the world of words and how we describe ourselves...These title DO NOT #DEFINE US!

As well as how we tend to use titles as a way of describing ourselves to others that maybe in the form of mother actress mechanic or whatever....yet we tend not to talk about what we are trying to become or accomplish

Moss Massimo speaks about this coming from a fear of being judged or being worried about what other may think or say about where we want to take our life!

Hence speaking our truth...we are here for such a short time and the last thing any of us want is to be 98 years old and full of regret about wishing we did or tried but instead placed to much value on what others thought...so in fear we did nothing!

Hacking short term win?! - Long term Lose!?

We carry on a little more in depth to all the 'on goings' in the world today....like what you ask??

Well there are a few things that are blowing our minds currently that we thought we should chat about

~

1. The The CrossFit Games banning all the Iroquois for testing positive for banned substances

2. How the fighting weight classes are rigged (or how the bigger fighters cut weight to fight in lower weight classes being the larger fighter in a small class)

3. Bio hacking Ben Greenfield is one of the guys leading the way with a whole new system of hacks to better the body through new ways of thinking and tech

~

John Barrett talks about a movie 'Iroquois' and how #doping or substances are just the normal in certain sports

How can we just be good anymore when these substance and #hacks or tech or whatever makes being GOOD basically obselete

~

We all fall into this category as John and I speak about some of the things we do to improve ourself or get us that edge over the next person or that next level of #health for our own #longevity

~

What we want to know is the why...ego or fear of death...

take a listen and let us know what your thougths are

To Hack or not to Hack that is the Question

So a comment that a fellow vlog/ podcast talk show host friend of ours asked us our thoughts on a product...

That took John Barrett and myself down a road...actually all over the F ing road to be honest.

We thought it was a brilliant idea coming from a business and entrepreneur stand point for sure, and in this day and age something a lot of people could and would use to reduce sugar issues.

It however did bring us to the point of "is this just another #quickfix"? another hack?

In a world where we are taught this PILL this SHOT this course...insert whatever will make you better, richer, sexier, smarter and so on...

Is this just another thing we do to avoid the true root #cause???

Take a listen and let us know what you think...good or bad

today we talk Reaction or Intention 😜

John and myself talk of this being a life long lesson. We are all human no matter our back grounds

So we all share the same program when it comes to emotions and that fight or flight reaction mode.😮

We can consider it our primitive mind

Our lower self the one ☝️ that needs to be right and needs to survive when we each react to a situation- whatever it may be 👌- always a story which is attached to a past and then an emotion

However when we start and or are able to come from our higher self or intention when we can master this amazing way or being or even just begin it ---all changes - we start seeing the world for what it is- not how we react to what we see or hear

For us a work in progress 🙌❤️👊

Take a listen 👂 and let us know where u stand!

Thank You For Nothing? Ignite Your Purpose #IYP

It's is so true that saying thank you costs absolutely nothing but can make all the difference in the world~ Something that never stop's rocking my world is how people can over look the most simplest of acts. Yes, that is correct acknowledgement on a good well done.

How this came to a head is where we are staying currently there are a ton of renovations and work going on, and day in day out I see the guests and local traffic just going through their day and rarely do I see any interactions between those working and passer by's.

I have been there so I go out of my way to talk to and thank those whom I come into contact with.

The interesting point here is that someone I work with asked my why do I do that?

My reply was that is costs me nothing and makes me and them feel phucking awesome...that's why!!

GM Plant Closing, Plant Opening - Ignite Your Purpose #IYP

There has been much talk of the GM plant closing in Canada and the USA, one of those plants is in an area where I grew up and I know a lot of people and family members whom have been affected by this. One of my friends even sent me an independent interview that was done with a bunch of the laid pf workers as they left work for the last time. I have to admit some of the stories were heart breaking. Now from an awareness stand point I watched how I reacted and felt after watching something like that; contracted, fearful, lost, hopeless, powerless are all words that came to mind.

However;

Check this, the same friend sent me an interview with Elon Musk an innovator, an entrepenure, a trend setter, a trail blazer. He said maybe just maybe we would want to use all those factories. Now now this may or may not happen.

However again when I paid attention to how I felt is was amazing, I was open, happy, excited, alive, endless possibilities.

It got me to thinking if we are always relying on someone or something else we can fell hopeless or not in control of our own destiny. So if in the end it can all be taken away from us, why would we NOT want to control it ourselves?
