Mind: The Loyal Servant and a Misleading Leader – Part Two

In this episode, I dive deeper into the nature of the mind and share my personal technique for quieting it—by simply returning attention to the present moment, again and again. The mind doesn’t truly operate in the present. It functions mostly through memory and imagination—pulling from the past and projecting into the future.

I explain how this simple shift in awareness has helped me, but I also emphasize that no technique should be followed dogmatically. What works for one may not work for another. The journey of inner stillness is personal. Each individual must investigate themselves to find the method that truly aligns with their nature.

This episode invites you to question your current relationship with the mind—and gently explore what really helps you come home to the present.

🎙 How the Mind Works — Association, Memory & Mental Noise

In this episode, I break down how the mind isn’t really ours—at least not in the way we think. What we call my mind is mostly a collection of borrowed thoughts, past associations, and inherited beliefs. The mind works through connections—linking memories and labels to every moment—and this often leads to confusion, division, and mental chaos.

I share how many of us unconsciously took sides during childhood, forming identities based on incomplete information. These mental alliances now shape how we judge, react, and even suffer.

But there’s another way.

I explain how we can use the mind as a tool—a loyal servant—rather than be misled by it as a false leader. I also offer a simple, practical approach to quieting the mind:

🧘‍♂️ Deliberately return to the present.

⚖️ Stay neutral. Stop taking sides.

Whether your mind feels noisy, overwhelmed, or stuck in the past, this episode will help you see it more clearly—and perhaps for the first time, choose peace over patterns.

🎙️ Unmasked by Toltec Wisdom | Episode: The Fourth Agreement – Always Do Your Best**

In this episode of Unmasked by Toltec Wisdom*, I dive into the Fourth Agreement from Don Miguel Ruiz’s transformative book *The Four Agreements*: **"Always Do Your Best."*

I reflect on real moments from my own life—times when I did my best and when I *fell short*—and how those choices shaped their outcomes. This episode is a personal exploration of growth, self-compassion, and accountability.

I also discuss how this agreement serves as a grounding force for the other three:

1. *Be impeccable with your word*

2. *Don't take anything personally*

3. *Don't make assumptions*

Without doing your best, the previous three remain ideals. With it, they become practice.

"Doing your best" isn't about perfection—it's about showing up fully in the moment with honesty and presence, even when your energy, emotions, or circumstances shift.

Whether you're new to Toltec wisdom or deepening your journey, this episode invites you to reflect, recalibrate, and realign with your inner integrity.

👇 Tune in now and let’s grow together.

In this powerful episode, I open up about my personal experiences with popular musician Seun Kuti—one situation where I chose not to make assumptions, and another where I did. The contrast in the outcomes reveals a deep truth:

🔍 Assumptions can silently destroy relationships, opportunities, and trust.

Whether it’s with friends, partners, or strangers, many of us fall into the trap of thinking we “know” what others mean or feel—without ever asking. I share how that played out in my life, and what it taught me about awareness, communication, and clarity.

✨ If you’ve ever lost something valuable because of unspoken stories in your head, this episode is for you.

📌 Listen, reflect, and unmask the silent killer called assumption.

In this episode, I share two stories from my college days that reveal just how much our reactions shape our reality. One situation I took personally—and it led to unnecessary pain. In another, I chose not to take it to heart—and found peace instead.

These contrasting experiences taught me powerful lessons about perception, ego, and emotional freedom. If you’ve ever felt triggered, misunderstood, or overwhelmed by someone else’s words or actions, this reflection might offer a new perspective.

🎧 Tune in to explore:

• How taking things personally can trap you in pain

• What it really means to “let go”

• The hidden freedom in how we choose to perceive

Welcome to Unmasked by Toltec Wisdom 🌿

In this episode, we dive into the First Agreement from The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz: Be Impeccable with Your Word — the foundation of Toltec wisdom and perhaps the most powerful agreement you can make.

I share a personal story about how my sister, without meaning to, put me under a lifelong spell with just a few words — shaping how I saw myself, especially around mathematics. It’s a real-life example of how casual comments, especially in childhood, can define us for years.

✨ Let’s unmask the lies and speak truth into our lives.

In this episode, we dive deep into a powerful and often uncomfortable truth: how human beings are domesticated from childhood—trained to follow social rules, seek approval, and suppress authenticity and live in fear.

Using toltec as our lens, we unpack the silent contracts we inherit from family, culture, and society—and how we can break free.

🔍 Topics we explore:

* What is human domestication, and how does it begin?

* How “agreements” shape our identity and limit our freedom.

* How human domestication relates with animal domestication
