You mentioned anxiety before.

Imagine how effective you'd be if you weren't anxious all the time is one of yours.

Anxiety is the emotion du jour of the 21st century.

And lots of driven people, very anxious, very paranoid.

That's what's caused them to be effective.

It pays so much attention,

detail-oriented, not letting things go,

staying up at night thinking about it.

That's the paranoia coming in.

What have you come to learn about anxiety and dealing with it?

So anxiety and stress are interesting.

They're very related.

Stress is when, like if you look at an iron beam,

when an iron beam is under stress,

it's because it's being bent in two different directions at the same time.

So when your mind is under stress,

it's because it has two conflicting desires at once.

So for example, you know,

you want to be liked,

but you want to do something selfish,

and you can't reconcile the two.

And so you're under stress.

You want to do something for somebody else.

You want to do something for yourself, right?

These are examples.

You don't want to go to work,

but you want to make money.

So you're under stress, right?

So you have two conflicting desires.

And I think one of the ways to get through stress is to acknowledge that,

oh, I actually have two conflicting desires.

And either I need to resolve it.

I need to pick one and then be okay losing the other.

Or I will decide later.

But at least just being aware of why your stress can help alleviate a lot of stress.

and then anxiety i think is sort of this pervasive unidentifiable

stress where you're just kind of stressed out all the time

and you're not even sure why and you can't even identify the underlying problem

and the reason for that is because you you have

so many uh unresolved problems unresolved stress points

that are piled up in your life

that you can no longer identify what the problems are there's this mountain of garbage in your mind

and it's a little bit of it poking out the top like an iceberg and that's anxiety.

But underneath there's a lot of unresolved things.

And so you just need to kind of go through very carefully every time you're anxious.

Like, okay, why am I anxious this time?

I don't know why.

Oh, well, let me sit here and just think about it.

Let me write down what the possible causes could be.

Let me meditate on it.

Let me journal.

Let me talk to a therapist.

Let me talk to my friends.

Let me just kind of see like,

when does that stress go away?

If you can kind of identify and unravel and resolve these issues,

then I think that helps get rid of anxiety.

A lot of the anxiety is piled up because we move through life too quickly,

not observing our own reactions to things.

We don't resolve them.

So this goes counter to what I was saying earlier about not reflecting too much on things.

But you reflect on the problems to observe them and solve them.

You don't reflect on them to feel better about yourself.

Well, if you're doing it to just feel better about yourself,

that could be strengthening your personality and your ego and could be creating a more fragile personality.

You know, one big anxiety resolve for me is just ruminating on death.

I think that's a good one.

You're gonna die.

It's all going to zero.

You cannot take anything with you.

And I know this is trite.

And I know that we don't spend enough time thinking about the big questions.

We kind of give up on them when we're very, very young.

You know, a little child might ask the big questions like,

why are we here?

What's the meaning of life?

What is this all about?

You know, is there Santa Claus?

Is there God?

but then as adults we're taught not to think about these things we've given up on them

but i think the big questions are the big questions for good reasons

and uh if you can keep the idea in front of you at all times

that you're going to die and that everything goes literally to zero

what's there to stress about yeah for better or worse life is very short how should people deal with its briefness?

Enjoy it.

Make the best of it.

It's even briefer than that.

Each moment just disappears.

It's gone.

There's only a present moment and it's gone instantly.

So if you're not there for it,

if you're stressed out or you're anxious or you're thinking about something else, you missed it.

So any moment when you're not in that moment,

you are dead to that moment.

You might as well be dead because your mind is off doing something else

or living in some imagined reality

that is just a very poor substitute for the actual reality

so one of my recent realizations was what is wasted time what is what is a waste of time

so i don't like to waste time but what is wasted time

100

and everything is wasted time in a sense

101

because nothing matters in the ultimate

102

but in each moment the thing matters in each moment it's the only thing that matters actually.

103

What's happening in front of you is literally has all the meaning in the world.

104

And so what matters is just being present for the thing.

105

So if you're doing something that you want to do and you're fully there for it,

106

then it's not wasted time.

107

If you don't want to do it

108

and your mind is running away from it and you're reacting against it

109

and you're wishing you were somewhere else and you're thinking about some other thing

110

or you're anticipating some future thing or regretting some past thing or being fearful of something,

111

then that's wasted time.

112

That's time that's being wasted when you're not actually present for the reality in front of you.

113

So my definition of wasted time,

114

yes, I do want some material things in life.

115

And, you know, there are things that have more value than others within this life.

116

But this life is very short and bounded.

117

So the true wasted time is a time that you are not present for when you are not there for it,

118

when you are not doing the thing you want to do to the best of a capability such

119

that you're immersed in it.

120

If you're not immersed in this moment,

121

then you're wasting your time.

122

People get worried about dying and no longer being here,

123

but they don't realize that so much of their life is spent not being here in any case.

124

That's right.

125

And I think people crave being here for it.

126

And when you're here for it,

127

you're actually not thinking about yourself.

128

You're more immersed in the thing,

129

the moment, the task at hand.

130

We don't want peace of mind.

131

We want peace for our mind.

132

That's right.

133

Yeah, you don't, peace, the mind is what will eat you alive if you let it.

134

And there's more to you than the mind.

135

How so?

136

Well, I mean, it's very...

137

I don't want to disassemble the body, so to speak, right?

138

Because...

139

Please, go on.

140

Yeah, at the end of the day,

141

everything arises within your consciousness, right?

142

You've got nowhere else to experience it.

143

Sorry?

144

You've got nowhere else to experience it.

145

You've got nowhere else to experience it.

146

And that consciousness is relatively static in the sense

147

that it's been exactly the same from the moment you were born to the moment you die.

148

And everything that you experienced from your body,

149

from your mind to the world,

150

to everything is within that consciousness.

151

And that thing, that base layer of being,

152

and this is what the Buddhists will tell you, is the real thing.

153

Everything that comes and goes in the middle,

154

including your mind, including your body is unreal.

155

And trying to find stability in those transient things is your castle that you're building on sand that's going to crumble.

156

Life is going to play out the way it's going to play out.

157

There will be some good and some bad.

158

Most of it is actually just up to your interpretation.

159

You're born, you have a set of sensory experiences, and then you die.

160

How you choose to interpret those experiences is up to you,

161

and different people interpret them in different ways.

162

Yeah, it's the old line about two people walking down the street.

163

They're having the exact same experience one is happy one is

164

sad right it's a narrative in their heads it's how they choose to interpret um

165

so i think when i said

166

that it was a long time ago i was talking more about having positive interpretations

167

and negative interpretations but these days i think it's better just not to have any interpretations

168

and to just allow things to be you're still going to have interpretations you can't stop it

169

and nor should you try but even that having an interpretation is just a thing you can leave alone.

170

Yeah, I really want to try

171

and just dig in a little more to the best way to remind people that they should value their time.

172

Just how brief it is that the time that you spend ruminating,

173

being distracted, fears of the past, regrets.

174

Well, I don't want to tell anybody how to live their life.

175

I would just say that to the extent that you want to improve your quality of life,

176

the easiest and best way to do that is to observe your own mind and your own thoughts and be a little,

177

not necessarily critical, but be observant of yourself more objectively.

178

And then you'll kind of realize your own loops and patterns.

179

It takes time.

180

It's not overnight.

181

It's not instantaneous.

182

So you mean letting go is not a one-time event?

183

Yeah, and letting go is not necessarily even the right answer.

184

Like, yes, if you're trying to be an enlightened being and,

185

you know, you want to live like a god and everything's going to be perfect and be a Buddha,

186

sure, you can let go.

187

But I think in practice it's actually quite hard to do.

188

I think I would say

189

that you're going to find a lot of fulfillment out of life by just doing what you want to do

190

and genuinely exploring what it is

191

that you want rather than doing what other people expect you to do

192

or society expects you to do or what you might just think should be done by default.

193

um you know i think most older successful people will tell you

194

that their life was best

195

when they lived it unapologetically on their own terms be selfish holistic selfishness there you go exactly we can clip

196

that little i'm telling you about being selfish yeah yeah yeah

197

that's it just keep running about bad guy uh great i i had this insight

198

or a question i guess how much do you think

199

that we should trust the voice in our heads because half of wisdom suggests to rely on your sort of bottom-up intuition,

200

and then half of it has to be sort of top-down rational as possible.

201

How do you navigate the tension between head and gut in this way?

202

I think the gut is what decides.

203

The head is kind of what rationalizes it afterwards.

204

The gut is the ultimate decision maker.

205

And what is a gut?

206

The gut is refined judgment,

207

it's taste aggregates aggregated and it could be aggregated through evolution uh

208

and it's in your genes in your dna

209

or it could be aggregated through your experiences

210

and what you've thought through the mind is good at solving new problems

211

and uh new problems in the external world

212

that have different defined edges you know beginnings and ends and

213

and objectives what the mind is actually really bad at is making hard decisions

214

so when you have a hard decision to make i find it's better to,

215

yes, you ruminate on it,

216

you think through all the pros and cons,

217

but then you sleep on it.

218

You wait a couple of days.

219

You wait until the gut answer appears with conviction and it feels right.

220

And when you're younger, it takes longer because you just don't have as much experience.

221

And when you're older, it can happen much faster,

222

which is why, you know.

223

And you have less time to Yeah.

224

And old people are more set in their way as a consequence, right?

225

They know what they want.

226

They know what they don't want.

227

So it takes time to develop your gut instinct and judgment.

228

But once you've developed them,

229

don't trust anything else because you can't go against your gut.

230

It'll bite you in the end.

231

Usually in relationships that failed,

232

you can look back and say,

233

oh, actually I knew it was going to fail because of this reason,

234

but I kind of went ahead anyway,

235

because I wanted it to be this way, right?

236

I wanted this person to be a different way than they are.

237

I wanted to get a different thing out of it than I thought I was going to,

238

than I knew I was going to get,

239

but I just wanted it.

240

So sometimes desire will override your judgment and then trap you.

241

Yeah, wishful thinking.

242

It traps you into a pathway that just chews up time.

243

As you get older, one thing that becomes harder to ignore is your testosterone levels.

244

They impact everything from your energy to your mood and how well you recover.

245

However, there are science-backed supplements like Tonkat that support testosterone, strength and recovery.

246

And that is why I'm such a huge fan of Moentis' product

247

because they make the only NSF-certified Tonkat LE on the planet.

248

That means it's so rigorously tested that even Olympic athletes can use it

249

and why I partnered with them because they make the most carefully tested,

250

highest quality supplements on earth.

251

This is a huge part of my brain,

252

body and sleep stack, which makes a big impact on my cognition,

253

my strength and my recovery.

254

쉐도잉이란? 영어 실력을 빠르게 키우는 과학적 방법

쉐도잉(Shadowing)은 원래 전문 통역사 훈련을 위해 개발된 언어 학습 기법으로, 다언어 학자인 Dr. Alexander Arguelles에 의해 대중화된 방법입니다. 핵심 원리는 간단하지만 매우 강력합니다: 원어민의 영어를 들으면서 1~2초의 짧은 지연으로 즉시 소리 내어 따라 말하는 것——마치 '그림자(shadow)'처럼 화자를 따라가는 것입니다. 문법 공부나 수동적인 청취와 달리, 쉐도잉은 뇌와 입 근육이 동시에 실시간으로 영어를 처리하고 재현하도록 훈련합니다. 연구에 따르면 이 방법은 발음 정확도, 억양, 리듬, 연음, 청취력, 말하기 유창성을 크게 향상시킵니다. IELTS 스피킹 준비와 자연스러운 영어 소통을 원하는 분들에게 특히 효과적입니다.
