Realign your life's direction,so let's jump in.
It is what it is.
It's life, and life is full.
And you always have to wonderwhat would you do if it was the

(01:33):
opposite?
Right, you'd probably go in acircus.

Pirooz Sashar (01:36):
Well, totally, you know, like, I think, yeah,
man, it's like it doesn't.
And it's funny because when I,I actually think that you know
when the universe is gettingready to give you, give you a
lot of gifts or give you moregifts, it just tests you in so
many different ways just to makesure you're strong enough and
you know what to do with it andand and to go to the next phase

(01:58):
so you're not stuck on the same.
You know you're not stuck inthe same place, so that you're
always evolving.
So it's definitely you know, um, you know, I, I, I think it's
that's definitely the way it is,because it's just like you see
things that I mean, there's likethings that happen throughout
the day, especially when you'relike building two, two, um,
complex platforms, like we are,because there's a whole product

(02:20):
development side that requires alot of action, and then there's
a whole product developmentside that requires a lot of
action, and then there's a whole.
You know what we're doing withconscious self-care, as I
explained to you, sure, andwhat's interesting is that, um,
they all require a lot of time.
They already there's a lotinvolved, you know.
So you can, you can either, youcan, you can sort of choose your
battles.

(02:40):
You can go into it thinkinglike, oh, I'm gonna, I have to
do this as a cast and do allthese tasks.
Or you just approach itconsciously, knowing like you
know what.
Everything is just gonna.
Everything is gonna work itselfout, bro.
Yeah, that's my approach toeverything.
Everything is gonna be allright, everything is gonna work
itself out.
There's nothing I can do.

(03:00):
You know so.
Either way, even if, even if itwas working yourself out, I
still have no power over it.
I'm not the you know, I'm notthe creator of the you know this
, this universe.
So I'm just like whatever, I'mjust going with the flow.

Dai Manuel (03:16):
I love it and I know that that's not a philosophy
that naturally comes to peoplewithout a lot of other at least
some tribulations and trials andchallenges.
And so you know, I'm excited tohave this conversation today and
really just dive a little bitinto your background and why you
believe what you believe, butalso why you have the mission
that you have today, you know,and so you know, I think one of

(03:38):
the best places to begin to bequite honest with you is just
wondering if you could share alittle bit about your early
experiences and, moreimportantly, how they've
influenced your approach, notjust the business, but also to
branding, because I know you'reuh, you're branding big on
messaging, you're big on vision,mission, purpose.
So, uh, do you mind just, I'lljust got a little.

No, absolutely I'll give you a um, I am.
You know.
I came to the us when I nineyears old.
I was born in Iran, as I'veshared with you.
People's point of view of Iranis what they see in the media,
but Iran is no different thanVancouver, where you are

(04:22):
beautiful place, you can goskiing 15 minutes, amazing food,
beautiful people, just anamazing part of the world.
Unfortunately, due to politicalcircumstances and what other
people behind the scenes who runthe world had in mind, the
government was overthrown and wewere all most of us Iranians

(04:42):
who were outside the countrywere victims of that.
And what people don't take intoconsideration whenever we're
sitting back, like attack themor go after them or bomb them or
go to war or whatever.
What they don't understand isthat how it affects people.
You know what's happeningcurrently in any situation where
there's trauma involved,whether it's war, whether it's

(05:05):
in school, whether it's in aplayground.
As a child from the age of threeto nine, that's where your
self-image and your personalityis formed.
Years and being on the run,with my family being in danger,

(05:27):
watching my parents from goingfrom having everything to
nothing to having to start overthree times, even in the us,
making it going bankrupt, makingit go.
So, as a kid who was born intoopulence and then had to deal
with this experience of hidingfor 18 months with his family,
at one point under an alias, orjust coming to a country where I
didn't speak the language Ididn't say I didn't speak for

(05:49):
three months when I first camehere, and those who know me find
it very hard to believe becauseI talk, you play catch up, it's
all good yeah.
So you know, all this sort ofstuff like affected me and but
what it really?
You know, the traumatic sideand the subconscious side I
always thought was completelyseparate from the health side,

(06:11):
because I realized after a whileI'm like, oh, my health issues
are all connected to what Iexperienced as a kid, not
connecting it to the consciousside.
And once I, you know, startedto look into it deeper.
I mean, I spent years doingwhat I, you know.
So I grew up in Washington DC.
I grew up between my father'smartial arts school, uh, where I

(06:33):
uh, martial arts is what savedme.
Basically, I became a blackbelt at the age of 13.
I started teaching karate,which taught me how to teach.
I fell in love with teachingbecause it was a great escape
and I very, I have a very smartmom who kept me very busy.
And when I wasn't, um, and whenI wasn't, um, you know, uh,

(06:55):
being a bad kid or misbehaving,because I was just, you know, I
again I'd be exposed to all thisstuff.
Um, I was working in her salon,washing, washing, you know, I
was washing the floors, washinghair.
I always had these janitorialduties.
And then my other escape on theweekend was cooking, because
I'm an avid cook and I grew uploving to cook and I just left
food.
But I always had issues eatingand I, when I decided to go into

(07:19):
the world of products, I fellin love with products.
I fell in love with the businessof beauty because I realized in
my teenage years that everyonehas something really beautiful
about them and this sort of likesat with me Within a matter of
48 hours.
When I was 17 years old, Irealized this and then I
literally I was cleaning,because I was growing up always

(07:42):
having these janitorial duties.
I was actually cleaning thelocker room at the karate school
and I found these tapes and onewas called the stranger secret
by this guy in earl langdon,gale and I remember, I remember
putting this in my cassette anddriving home one night and I was
17 years old and the tapechanged my.
I was like whoa, what is that?
And I just knew that there wassomething better out there.

(08:04):
And so, as I started, I got into.
You know, um, I got into theworld of beauty, but I got into
it because I was always obsessedwith products and I was always
obsessed with the concept ofcreating something from scratch
and then scaling it and whatthat would look like.
I didn't even know anythingabout branding, I just knew that
I like really.
I just just I liked things thatlooked great, I like things

(08:27):
that are beautiful.
And so, um man, I and you knowwhat I did, die is like I, I did
, I you know a lot of my friendswent for the money, I went for
the work, I went and I work inevery area, every sector,
whether it was selling, whetherit was you know logistics,
whether it was marketing,whether it was, I tried to do

(08:47):
everything possible because Iknew in my mind it was great
practice but it would allow meto do is to work in 49 States
and uh and 30 some odd countriesand you know, launching
products.
And that's where I started tolearn about brand and marketing.
Because when you get deep downand you're training people and
you're teaching people andyou're working with people,

(09:10):
that's where you learneverything you know.
And when you're writing withsalespeople I was writing with
salespeople in like theoutskirts of Utah.
I was writing with salespeoplein New York City.
I was writing with salespeoplein Compton, california.
I was selling and trainingpeople in like Joliet, illinois,
like places I never eventhought of, like whatever, south

(09:32):
Dakota, montana, and it wassuch an interesting experience
because you got to see people,you got to see how people were
different.
Now, what I would do when I wasin these locales is I was always
searching for health.
I was looking for a better wayto take care of myself.
I was looking for you know,back then we didn't really the

(09:53):
internet wasn't as easy, wedidn't have these cell phones
around, so I would just throughyou know, word of mouth, look
for homeopathic people, doctors,allergists, anybody I could
find, because I always hadissues with my eating.
I would eat everything, but Ialways had a stomachache, never
knowing that my emotions, mysubconscious, my trauma from the
past and all these other thingsthat created these health

(10:15):
challenges for me were allconnected and were preventing me
from living a happy life.
Because, even though a lot ofpeople around me, even when I
was, was creating concepts,there was a period in my life
where I um became very wellknown because I pioneered the
men's grooming market and thereason guys are buying products
is because of myself and anotherguy.
We did this and I remember wehad instant shame for about 11

(10:39):
years.
But internally I was reallyunhappy.
I was in, on the outside I wasa dude having a good time, you
know women everywhere partying,you know, like a complete
degenerate.

Dai Manuel (10:49):
But in the inside I was really unhappy and I knew
that I had to fix this yeah,what were you, what were some of
those emotions?
I'm just curious about thatbecause I I know you are very
much someone that now recognizesthis idea of conscious
self-care we're going to get toin a bit, because I'm really
excited about what you'reworking on because I think it
really will make a huge, notonly local but impact.
But it's been a long journey toget there right and I'm curious

(11:11):
what was some of those emotionsthat were coming up during
those 11 years?
Because I can really relate tothis.
I remember when I was at firstcompanies and alcohol was just
everywhere.

So to and I'm in the fitness industry, which is
like just being so crazy, right.
But I'd love to hear just whatwas that experience, like you
know?
Well, you know it was veryempty and very lonely, because I
would like, let's say I would.
I always had these grand ideaslike, hey, we're going to create
this Right and a lot of it.
A lot of times I would findmyself at photo shoots and
campaigns and I set my mind tosomething and we would build a
brand and the brand wasbeautiful and over to who it was

(11:47):
supposed to be handed to.
And then, when that wouldhappen, I would always found
myself in a very empty, lonelyplace.
And and um, it also happened.
You know, same thing.
You know, I was um, I was a uh.
I wasn't the best person to bein a relationship with Right, so
I was always so I was goingthrough burrows my mom used to
call my apartments the revolvingdoors, and so I was always.

(12:11):
But I always thought like, ohwell, if I go out with this girl
and she's this way and looksthat way, then I'll be happy.
And it never worked.
And I look back and I'm like,wow, I can't believe I went
through all that.
But what happened for me wasonce I started to notice that I
was like, ok, where's all thiscoming from?

(12:33):
Where's all this stemming from?
How did all this and why do Ilike destroy relationships?
Why do I do this and why do Ifeel so deep?
And it wasn't until I nevereven discovered love, until I
became a dad.
And so the day I, the day I,held my son, which was a I
wasn't expecting it at all I waslike surprised having a baby.
And that happened, you know,and uh.

(12:57):
So you know when I but Iremember the first day that my
son grabbed my index finger andit was the first time in my life
I ever felt love.
And when I felt that love, Ikept thinking to myself I'm like
, well, how can I?
What is this?
You know I'd never experiencedthat sort of love.
I'd experienced love from myparents and all these other
family members and stuff andperhaps other people that I was.

(13:20):
You know I thought I was inlove with or, you know, I
experienced it on that.
You know, I thought I was inlove with or, you know, I
experienced it on that, you know, and that's sort of a
connection.

Dai Manuel (13:26):
But I never felt love, the way I felt that day,
that, like I'm like wow, this islike half of this guy is me,
you know, and, and look at thecity, like what do I do with him
?

And I knew right there, right there, everything
changed for me and my lifechanged.
I was very confused the firstyear because, you know, I was
the dad looking on youtube interms of how to change the
diaper, and you know.
But everything changed and Istarted doing it.
I did a very I started doingthese really deep dives and I
was like I need to figure thisout, I need to see what's going

(14:01):
on here, I need to.
I started searching and I gotheavily into meditation and I
was always reading material.
Right, you named the book.
I read it.
Someone was like did you have?
Have you ever read Think andGrow Rich?
I'm like, yeah, 25 years ago.

Dai Manuel (14:13):
Or did you?

do this?
All this stuff I was reading,but it wasn't connecting with me
.
I just knew this informationwas just being put up there.
But it was connecting.
And information was just beingput up there, but it was
connecting.
And then I just startedsearching for it and, as a
searcher, I realized I was like,wow, I am, you know, I am the
creator here, I've created allthis and I was put here for a

(14:35):
reason.
And this happened for a reason.
And this little boy came intomy life for a reason and I need
to do something.
And it was when I discoveredthat, that detachment, that when
I would detach and feel lonelyor was alone, when I felt that
that that detachment wasactually my power, that there
was power in detachment and thatif I use that power, then I

(14:59):
could become very present.
And the more present I am, themore alive I am.
The more present I am, the morealive I am, the more aware I am
, and the slower everything gets, but then the faster everything
around me starts to happen.
And once I realized that, Iknew right there.
And then I'm like well,everything's been okay to this
point.
You know why not?
But and that's where mypractice started meditation

(15:22):
started to make sense, the bookstarted to make sense, all that
stuff that was around me startedto make sense.
The book started to make sense,all that stuff that was around
me started to make sense.
And then I turned around and Ilook back and I'm like, wow,
those years went by pretty quick, you know, like now what, and
when.
I realized that I was like okay,I have two options here.
I can sit around and I can wakeup in the morning and determine

(15:42):
how great I want to make today,what kind of person I want to
be, and and live in my future,and bring my future to me and be
a part of it.
Or I can dwell on my past andcontinue thinking the same
thoughts, because those thoughtscreated those same emotions and
those emotions created the sameresults, and those results
created the same reality andthat reality created the same

(16:03):
circumstances over and overagain.
Or I can just look at that aswisdom and just let it go.
You know, and and and I and itwas one of those times I was
like I gotta make this decisionand it wasn't easy in the
beginning, and one of the thingsmartial arts taught me that
everything in life is practice.
So you know this is practicewhat you and are doing, because

(16:24):
I'm looking forward to doingmore things together.
You know more of these thingstogether.
And we're going to get better atit.
Every day is practice, you know.
Fatherhood is practice Workingout you know this.
You're an avid, you know, gymguy, so you don't just go one
time and expect great results.
You go on regular vases and youstay fit, you know.

(16:46):
And then I started realizing I'mlike, well, you know, then
everything started to make sense, and then I started taking
control of my body.
And when I started takingcontrol of my body because I
started to realize, I'm like,wow, this happened because of
this.
This happened because of thisand through this process, as a
product developer because Ibecame a product developer by
accident I started looking forthe best products out there.

(17:08):
I started realizing thatthere's processes and people out
there that need help, and whycan't I bring that out there?
Why can I help make this happen?
And as a brand developer, whatif I created a, a?
What if I created somethingamazing whereby, you know, we
can help people think better andfeel?
Cause?
That's all I was searching forat the end of the day.

(17:30):
And that's where that and thenthe branding you know, I, like I
said, I love beautiful thingsand I always created beautiful
things it all started to makesense to me, you know, because I
wasn't judging, or because whenyou judge you're really judging
yourself, cause I would be theguy I was a new york guy who was
in the room like, oh this sucksand go back and go back there

(17:51):
and do it again and whatever,and that's, that was a
reflection of me.

Dai Manuel (17:53):
Yeah, you know what I mean when I position ourselves
in the world, right, it's just,it's amazing that it gives us
this feeling of control.
It's just wild and uh, I I justbecause I know you're sort of
hitting and speaking to thisdevelopment of this philosophy
of conscious self-care, and Ifind it really fascinating
because it's like quite the leapyou know, when I think of it
which is sort of video wateringget into martial arts, you know,

(18:16):
having to locate multiple timesas a team and while you're
still learning a new country andrituals and customs, and it's
just like one one journey afteranother, right, and and I know
it's compounded into why youbelieve what you believe today.
But I guess, can you elaborateon how that philosophy, this
philosophy of consciousself-care, underpins everything
you do?
Because I think that's actuallywhat you're getting to right

(18:38):
now and I'm just fascinated.
Just first of all, what doesthat mean?
Conscious self-care?

well, I'll tell you this so I I can explain it.
So what happened was when westarted doing, when we came up
with the Peruse brand and thereason we call it Peruse is not
because of my ego or anythinglike that.
I was named by a very spiritualperson.
The word Peruse means to win,or victory.
In the Mocha Farsi, which isthe beautiful language, the
beautiful people of Perjimusspeak, and so you, which is the

(19:06):
beautiful language, thebeautiful people of Pergamos
speak.
And so you know, I always knewas a kid I was given this name
because I was meant to dosomething with it.
So everything that I'm doingnow I envisioned when I was
15-16 years old.
I just didn't understand it,but I would always see it and um
, you know.
So, when we, when I, when Istarted this and when I started
bringing all of all the piecestogether, it was probably the

(19:27):
most ever branded in my life,because I just didn't know what
to do.
You know, when I got into themen's world, I knew like okay,
guys don't know how to take careof themselves.
I was running to my friends.
I'm like, can I write the wordman on this product?
And it'd be like, why?
I'm like because I, I know, ifI teach dudes, I don't know, not
have a smelly armpit or had towash their face, then I can sell
products to them.
Um, but we started.

(19:49):
It was a, it was a mission, andI and so for a long for I spent
the first two years.
There was a lot going on aroundme and partners and people that
are no longer involved, butthey had very nice people.
But I was just trying to figureit out and and I would, but I
was also going through thisexperience of discovering myself

(20:09):
, knowing that the next phase ofmy life is where I am, is where
I'm supposed to be, what I'msupposed to create some great
stuff and help people and bringall this, you know, bring
amazing products to life.
You know, that pandemic taughtus a lot because we were just
sitting here, it was all startedduring that time and just
sitting around, you think quitea bit, and so you know, as I was

(20:33):
sitting there and I'm like whatis the meaning of this?
I'm like if you're actuallytaking care of yourselves, if
you're taking care of your body,and I started really studying
the cells and I realized I'mlike, wow, and I started really
studying the cells and Irealized I'm like wow, our cells
, listen to our inner dialogue,our thoughts, everything that's
happening in our body is allhappening together.
You know, it's funny.
I had a grandfather who lived tobe in his late to his late 90s

(20:54):
and he used to always make me dothese funny exercises like look
out and smile.
I'd be like why he's like Ididn't get angry as you're
smiling.
And one day I was sitting withhim and he was a pretty wise
dude and people would come visithim and somebody's like well,
you're, you know, whatever,whatever my grandfather was, you
know too busy looking atmadonna or whatever on tv.
He was a, he was really youngat heart and somebody one of my

(21:17):
I think it was a cousin orsecond cousin was like you know
what's your?
How do you become happy in life?
What's the definition ofhappiness?
And he goes, my grandfather'slike well, stop being unhappy.
It was really simple and thatkind of clicked with me and I
started looking at this.

(21:38):
I'm like, wow, our cells listento our inner dialogue, our
cells and our cellular body.
I mean like I was.
The past few years, all thesevaccines have come to market
Again.
I'm not an anti-vax or for, butI'm not.
I'm not political, yeah, Idon't know that stuff.
But when I look at it I'm likewhy is it the guy that gets the
flu shot is the first guy to getthe flu?
You know why?

(22:06):
Why are these?
These things happen this way.
So as I started writing thebrand and I started writing
about the product and where wewant to be, and I see this
growing, I'm like, well, whatwe're?
Conscious self-care, the word,the word conscious self-care,
the, the, the value proposition,the missions, the all of that
stuff started coming to my mindand I was like, wow, this is all
based on conscious self-care.
What conscious self-care is isessentially caring for yourself

(22:26):
consciously.
We go throughout that, we gothrough the day.
95% of the time, everybody istrying to, you know, riff on our
subconscious mind and oursubconscious mind is our
powerhouse.
But if we take a little bit oftime and just be more just our
subconscious, we can do someamazing stuff, right, right, we
can literally take anything froma non-physical level and turn
it into a physical manifestationor a reality.

(22:48):
And I'm and then I was watching,looking online, and I'm like
looking at people charging allsorts of stuff every, every day,
after um, again during thatcovid time and after covid,
everybody became, everybodybecame a coach.
Yeah so, and I would laughbecause I would have 25 year
olds or 23 year olds reach outto me like I want to be your
life coach.
You seem like an interestingguy.
I'm like, yeah, you know, Iwould laugh about it again.

(23:12):
Nothing against them.
I would encourage them to gointo the field and do what they
want to do.
But I'm like this is weird.
And as I started thinking aboutit, I'm like, well, we need to.
I want to create something thatgives people this information,
that helps people withinformation.
Yes, everybody can make aliving and make money and do
whatever they want to do with it, but at the same time, if we're
helping, if we're giving, thatis going to create what's called

(23:35):
circularity.
So if you look at the brand, ifyou look at any element of what
we're doing, there's circleseverywhere.
And I became obsessed with thecircles because everything to me
is circularity, everything goesaround.
You know I may be in a positionright I may be in a position
where I'm not like.
You know what you can, you knowwhatever.

(23:55):
I might have five dollars to myaccount in the thing and all of
a sudden somebody says hey, man, I'm going through a rough time
.
I know that if I take $4 ofthat five bucks and give it to
somebody, that it's circular,everything's circling,
everything.
And I just keep seeing thecircle in my mind.
I'm like everything is going tobe okay, you know.
And then these things startedprocessing in my head and I was

(24:18):
like how do we bring this in?
This is conscious self-care.
This is what consciousself-care is all about.
This is what it is.
And all conscious self-carecomes in many forms.
First of all, it starts withyou know being conscious,
meaning accept your detachment.
You know, become nothing,become no one, step away.

(24:40):
That is true power.
Because then from there you'rein the present moment, moment,
and that present moment is whereyour power lies.
And when you're present andwhen you're detached, I can tell
you, as somebody who developedproducts that were very
superficial for many years inthe world of cosmetics, that you
tap into your inner beauty andyou can bring that inner beauty,

(25:00):
inner handsomeness, whatever itis, out into the world.
And I started to see that and Iwas like, okay, well, if
everything is okay, everythingis going to be great.
And if I'm, you know, a ditchhash and I have this true power
of being present, what's leftbeing authentic?
Because I was not an authenticperson for a good period of my

(25:21):
life, because it wasn't my fault, it was just, it was my way of
masking things.
Some people turn to alcohol,some people turn to pot.
Done that, it was alwaysmasking things.
I went high things and thatwasn't I, wasn't being my
authentic self.
Right, if I'm not my authenticself, I can't tap into my higher
self or connect with any sortof infinite intelligence,
regardless of what anybody orwhat you believe.

(25:42):
So when all this startedclicking, I was the only thing
that kept going through my headwas conscious self-care,
conscious self-care, consciousself-care.
And I wanted to create.
It wasn't just about ourproduct.
I as a product developer.
We always want to create thebest products.
But I'm like there's amazingpractitioners out there, there's

(26:03):
a lot of amazing people likeyourself out there that are
doing what they believe in, andI was like I want to help these
people and I want to create acommunity and I want this
community to be able to.
I just kept seeing.
You know, just the same way Icommunicate with my son.
I'm like, why is I?
Was like, what if I couldcreate something where a
five-year-old, a 15-year-old, a30-year-old, a 50-year-old

(26:25):
everybody can benefit from itand find who they need to find
and, at the same time, maybe noteverybody's going to like the
products I make?
You know, there's a lot ofamazing product developers out
there.
Why not bring them to theforefront and help them out in
some way?
Because it's so easy to be a onewonder nowadays on the Internet
, because most of the things yousee is all tainted, right,

(26:46):
there's like actors and there islike a top five this and the
top four that the consumergetting sick of it.
And again, as usual, when youcome up with an idea like that,
people are like oh, never work,you're crazy.
You know all this stuff, butbelieving in it, the right

(27:07):
people came and and this is howwe all connect and that's the
beauty of it.
That's what conscious self-careis all about being, you know,
loving yourself consciously,loving the people around you,
consciously, having a, havingthe space that's conscious
around you, because your spacemakes a huge difference.
Um, you know, it's everything.
Consciousness is the onlyreality we have and we're not
aware that we're in this realityand we're constantly bouncing

(27:31):
within it, meaning the words wespeak, the actions we take, the
thoughts we think.
That's that consciousness isthe only true reality that
exists.
The subconscious is just a um,you know, it's your power center
.
It all depends what you want todeal with it, and most people
are living in that subconsciousmind.
So I was like well, how do wehelp people subconscious?
How do we help them go back andreprogram?

(27:54):
How do we help them withoutthem going broke, without them
mortgaging their house andgetting extra credit cards to
learn some craziness or whatever?
Where it's just simple, whereyou bring teachers together and
the teachers are good, how do wewatch everybody's back?
And it was a consciousself-care, that's how it was
born.

Dai Manuel (28:13):
I think it's beautiful, I love it and just
the fact that we're engagingthat awareness piece, because
you are right.
I mean, we just sort of gothrough our motions, and I was
thinking about what you saidabout your grandfather.
You know, just it'll stop beingsad, just choose to be happy,
right, like, and and it'sinteresting because bronnie ware
, who did a lot of research anddocumentation around the five

(28:35):
regrets of the dying, one of thetop five regrets that people
have at end of life is I wish Iallowed myself to be happier,
which implies that there'salways a choice.
You know, we can always chooseto be happier and choose
happiness in the moment, and sothat's always sat with me, you
know.
So it's just interesting to seehow your grandfather's also
left that legacy and impact withyou, right, and now you're

(28:57):
passing it forward in a muchbigger way, you know, with these
online communities and reallythis underpinning philosophy,
really a line, you know, withthese online communities and
really this underpinningphilosophy really align it from
vision, mission, purpose of theproducts that you're bringing to
market as well.
So I'm curious, because in thepast I see you mentioned
something and I thought this isreally interesting, but this
idea of influencing yourself inthe right frequency, you know,

(29:20):
and I want to know, like, justwhat does that mean?
What does that mean, because Ilove where you're sort of going
with this, like I understandthis, because you know, I, I
want to know, like, just whatdoes that mean?
What does that mean?
Because I, I love where you'resort of going with this, like I
understand this, because youknow, as the gurus always say,
is where your attention goesyour energy flows, right.
So so, uh, you know, I'd loveto hear your your riff on that.

So take it away well, I, I give you an idea, I
was.
Uh.
Sometimes I sit in my car theycall me from work and they're
like we need a video.
And I'm like, okay, where areyou?
And I'm like, meanwhile, likeI'm in dad mode.
And yeah, I'm looking on myleft side, I see new york city,
my old life, I'm looking overhere in the village.
I'm like you gotta be on this,you gotta be on.

(29:56):
Like things are coming at 100times 100 miles per hour.
And I was in my car earlier andI did a little video and on the
video I was talking about howpeople you know, how, how we're
all vibratory, you know spiritsand how we work off each other,
all of us, and how sometimes youcan just hang out with somebody

(30:17):
and have the best time and justvibe and get energized and get
inspired and move forward, andhow sometimes we're not aware
but other people's moves andinfluences can overtake our
vibration.
You know, and it's so easybecause you could be in the best
mood possible all of a sudden aparent calls you and says

(30:38):
something and you're gettingannoyed or like a sibling calls
you, or the work, the computerdoesn't work, or all these silly
things happen that take us awayfrom our true power and, uh,
and and the purpose of the videoI was just saying.
I'm like, just, you know,besides guarding the walls of
your mind, you know you canchoose to hang out with who you
want to hang out with, right.

(30:59):
So, like when you and Iconnected, for instance, I'll
give you an example and I'll getyou the.
This is leading to yourquestion.
When you and I connected, westarted texting.
You know you're sending mestuff on WhatsApp and I feel
your energy because I'm like oh,this is great, you know, and
even though I'm doing 50 things,and it's really helpful to me
because I could be in the middleof a thousand things and 14

(31:21):
people coming to me in likethree Zooms, the middle of a
thousand things and 14 peoplecoming to me in like three Zooms
, and I'm like this is cool, youknow, like, this is like, and
then it just gives me thisenergy and I can go back into
those in a certain way, and itwas, you know.
Again, it was, it's authenticand so, therefore, you know, I'm
always looking for.
You know, it's always reallyimportant to surround yourself

(31:42):
with people that believe in youand you believe in them and
they're your pillars for eachother.
There are going to be peopleyou need in business especially
in this business we don't havethe same outlook who will take
no responsibility, who blameeverything on everything and
they bring their personal stuffin there and it's like that's
what they're generating fromwithin.
And speaking of generating,that's for that whole, that's

(32:04):
for the concept.
You know that.
The question you asked about thefrequency.
So every, every day, you knowyou have a choice and, just like
I mean, think about it.
One of the hardest things I'veever done is intermittent
fasting Cause I like to eat, man, and then you get hungry and
when you get hungry you're likeshit, I gotta like wait another

(32:25):
like six hours.
What if I drink water?
What if I drink?
We have a someone we work withwho's a nutritionist and I like
to next door.
I'm like, is it okay if I havegum?
or if I say okay whatever right,and and you know what that
staying on frequency is the samething, you know, keeping on
frequency, staying on frequencyis a discipline and it's a

(32:46):
discipline that becomes naturalafter a while.
But again, it's what takes youaway from.
It is the circumstances, thepeople around you, whatever is
happening right, just thinkabout it.
You're a dad.
When you're around your kids,they feed off your frequency.
They are vibrating with you,you know, and especially the
young ones.
Take a look, I have a soon tobe five year old, and like if I

(33:07):
feel something, or if I thoughtsomebody I knew somebody lied to
me about something the otherday that I'm doing business with
and it like I felt it thesecond, I felt that his, his
posture went down.
That's how connected we are.
Right, because I'm alwaysguarding the walls of his mind,
because I don't want him toexperience anything I've ever
experienced.
I want him to.

(33:28):
So, having said that, the way Istarted because it was explained
to me for the same thing, whereyour attention, where energy
flows, your attention goes, yourattention goes, your energy
flows I started hearing allthese things that didn't make a
lot of sense to me.
But what started to make senseis I'm like, all right if

(33:50):
everything around me isvibrating, if I'm vibrating also
, and if I'm not in line withanything around me, first and
foremost, how do I protectmyself?
You know what do I do?
Because I want to stay in thisstate, because, if I know I'm in
, I have two options.
When I, when I think ofsomething, you know it.
I mean, I have two options.
When I think of something, youknow, if you have a thought, if
I give fuel to that thought, itmeans emotions, right, if I put

(34:11):
my emotions into that thought,that thought becomes my reality,
that thought becomes acircumstance.
That thought, that perception,just you know, it opens up in
the middle of my eyes, right,and we all forget that those
emotions come from our heart.
Our heart's like a magnet.
It has so much power.
I mean, the human heart is anincredible machine and that's

(34:31):
why it's so important to takesuch good care of it.
And so I'm like, all right,well, if I start thinking about
this.
I'm like, well, if I startedthinking about the past, not
regretting the past, butthinking like, how much time
have I spent in the pastactually giving emotion,
emotional, my emotionalintelligence to or towards

(34:54):
something I didn't want?
A lot, we've all done that alot, right, and what's happened?
It's become a reality.
Oh, what if I can change thatand flip the switch and you put
that towards what I want?
How do I block all those otherthings out?
Well, first and foremost, I needto stay on a frequency.
And for me to stay on afrequency, I have two ops.

(35:15):
There's two ways I can operate.
You know, I really believe inthere's a three-dimensional,
four-dimensional,five-dimensional.
We can keep going world, andI'm not a you know some
mastermind, so I don't know howto get to higher levels.
But what I do know is that whenI'm in my zone and when I'm
detached, I'm disconnected fromeverything, and when I'm nothing

(35:36):
, you know, and I've acceptedthat, and I'm just like in this
present moment and loving thispresent moment without even
thinking about myself.
I'm in my this present momentand loving this present moment
without even thinking aboutmyself.
I'm in my you know, fifthdimension and for me, if I'm
going to start feeling something, or if I want to feel, I have
two options here.
I can either, you know, startgiving my art and my freak you

(35:57):
know my emotions and start, youknow, vibing and tuning in to
the frequencies of the past orthe frequencies of the future
that are like, oh what, this ishappening.
Or I can, literally, becausethere's so many versions of us
happening at the same time, andI really believe that I can
become, become, I can harmonizemyself and go into harmony with

(36:21):
that I want and walk that way,talk, talk that way, speak that
way, feel that way.
All of a sudden, even when I'msaying this to you, my posture
changes.
Right, I start to sit up thatway and and that's it.
And, and I have two choices.
I mean, life is like a movie,right, you can either um all of
it up as a prop, because this isthe 3D, this is all matter,

(36:41):
it's all prop, it's going to behere when we're gone, right, our
inbox will be filled when we'regone, our mail will still keep
coming when we're gone, and.
But we have two options.
We can either stand in front ofthe camera and, you know, look
backwards.
We can get behind the cameraand look into the future and
just create our own movie andproduce it as we go.

(37:04):
And that, to me, is being onfrequency.
And so one of the things that Iremind myself throughout the
day is I'll stop, literally.
I have these halftimes justlike a you know, like a sporting
event and I'll ask am I onfrequency?
How am I doing?
Do I like how I'm speaking topeople?
Do I like how am I being?
Am I filled with love?
You know, where am I?

(37:24):
What am I doing?
What's happening?
No-transcript.
And again, it takes practice,because the first few times
you're doing it, yoursubconscious goes what are you
doing?
What the hell's wrong with you?
Of course nothing is right.
Of course you're this, you suck, you know whatever right.
But once you start getting goodat it, once you get stronger

(37:44):
again, it's like working out.
Then you stop and you think toyourself you're like, okay, no,
I need to get on frequency.
It's okay if I take 15 minutesand meditate, or just take a
time out or step away from thisfor a second and just come back
into it a better way, it's okay.
I often find myself around myson and I have a lot to do.

(38:06):
Man, if you look at my Trillolist, it's like insane.
And there's times I regret itwhere I'm like oh yeah, I'm with
you in two seconds, but andhe's like daddy, come play.
How many times is he going tobe saying that to me?
You know what I mean.
Like how many times is he goingto be five years old?
How long before he's like daddy, I'm going to see you later?

Dai Manuel (38:28):
My daughter's right now.
Right, it's like, yeah, they'llcall when they need something
but that's you know, that's theway I'm practicing.

So I I look at it that way and I'm like you know
what we?
We have to?
To be on frequency, you have topractice being on frequency and
to be practice, to practicebeing on frequency.
It's reprogramming, it'sreprogramming the cells.
It's not reprogramming mostpeople think, it's reprogramming
the mind.
It's reprogramming the mind,it's reprogramming the body.
The body is what captures allthese emotions, all this

(38:56):
nonsense from the past that'sprogrammed into us and then
changing it up.
And so just be careful, I telleverybody, guard the walls of
your mind, be aware of otherpeople's energy around you.
I mean the second.
You've been in conversationswhere the second somebody says
something.
You're like whoa, this dudedude is like you feel bad for
them in a way.

(39:16):
Right, you just say continue.
It's like I'm persian, so wetend to be a little aggressive,
so we just got it.
You know what I mean and I'm no, you know that's not the way it
works, but you know the way Ilook at it.
As long as I'm being authentic,who cares?
As long as I'm being honest,and I'm like no, bro, bro, this
doesn't work.
You know, this is what it is.
You don't want it, great, butagain, I cause, I want.

(39:41):
I'm looking for people who aresaying not necessarily wanting
the same things I want, butwe're in Exactly.

Dai Manuel (39:44):
Well, I mean you're you're also.
I totally relate to thisbecause, you know, a long time
ago, when I made decisions tomove away from alcohol and I
mean this is 15 years ago Irealized, you know, I still hung
around the people.
I was hanging around initiallyfor the first couple of months,
but the frequency had changed.
You know, the wants had changed, the way we interacted had
changed, because I had removedthis social influencer right,

(40:07):
alcohol, and they didn't, and Iwasn't judging them, but I
started to find myself wantingdeeper connection, deeper
relationships, and I wasn'tjudging them, but I started to
find myself wanting deeperconnection, deeper relationships
, and I realized that alcoholwas really a block to that, you
know, but normalized right.
And so I think what I'd like toask you because I know we're
getting close to the end hereand that just means I'm going to
have to have you back again andthat's all good, because I

(40:29):
can't wait to do that but whatI'd like to ask you is you know
a lot of what you're saying Ithink resonates well, but I also
know being devil's advocatehere.
A lot of people are constantlydealing with self-limiting
beliefs.
Now, you've worked through alot of those very intentionally,
consciously, and I think that'shonestly the only way you can
address self-limiting beliefs isyou have to first own them and

(40:50):
then start to first own them andthen start to work to rule.
So how you've done thatpersonally, but also I know that
you also support people alsobreak free from limiting beliefs
to assume and I hate to say theidea of assuming a new identity
, but I think it's a newfoundconfidence in who you are.
So I think the identity alwaysremains the same.
It's just our awareness foridentity and our purpose in life

(41:12):
.
It sometimes shifts when werelease some of those limiting
beliefs.
You know, we have some newbeliefs about ourselves, are
much more freeing and much moreI, I, you know, to use some of
your terminology, I wouldimagine radiating at a better
frequency, you know?
Um, do you want to just talkinto self-fulfillment?
Because I know that I hear alot from people just like I

(41:32):
can't do this, oh, I wish Icould do that, oh, I can.
Never, you know, and it's just,it always breaks my heart
because I'm just like oh, youknow, you're limiting your life
already without even trying.
You know, and that's what justreally irks me sometimes.
Reach out to those people, sendthem those messages and be like
it's okay, I see you, you cando this.

Anyway, I'm lucky to hear their thoughts.
Well, I mean, it's always toughwhen it's at home, or when it's
close to the heart, or whensomebody's here, right, because
you could be laying there.
And then you know your partner,you're like, you know what I'm
in this dimension.
I may not have a private jetsitting in the bath right now,

(42:17):
but that's where I am.
You know, like, I always tellone of my partners, because
she's obsessed with the bed,she's obsessed with bentley's,
and I'm like, and I always tellher, because you talk, I'm
talking brand, and I'm like, hey, if you want, because my
philosophy is, if you have agood product, if you have a good
brand, if you have, if you havea great value proposition,
great story, everything is right.
You don't need any advertisingfirms, you don't need any
marketing, the thing just works.

(42:38):
So, and I always tell her, I'mlike you want a Bentley, be a
Bentley, right.
And or you want to, you want tobe a Ferrari, you want a
Ferrari, be the Ferrari, right.
It's sometimes easier said thandone, so it's hard.
It's where I found challengeswith it in the past is when it's
somebody that's close to you,right, and as again, you learn

(42:58):
to detach, as again, you stayconsistent with your practice
and not feed into theirvibration, but bring them to a
better place.
Well you to bring that point upbecause I get to connect.
But to answer the question, Iwas speaking to someone I

(43:19):
actually want you to meet.
He's a champion, he's abodyboarder, he and his wife are
champion, bodyboarders Wow.
Awesome.
And then you know, becausesomebody's like, well, who cares
about bodyboarding?
It's not something like, bro,have you ever gone out in those
waves?
You know what it's like, and Ijust know that.
And you said people arepracticing this seven to eight
hours a day.

(43:40):
And he, and then he was tellingme he's like there's days that
are just hard, there's days thatare this, there's days that are
that, and you have to know howto swim, you have to be in a
certain condition, certain shape.
So and you know, he said, hesaid something to me about
wanting to believe in himself.
And I said, well, what do youmean?
And he goes.
Well, you know, sometimes Ihave this limiting belief about
because I my dream is to becomea world champion and I don't

(44:03):
know how to do it, and you know.
So then I then some days it'sjust hard.
And then all of a sudden, I sawthe energy level, even his
posture on how does he want tocall?
Similar to this, and he startsgoing down and I was like, let
me ask you a question where areyou right now?
And he's like what do you mean?
I'm at home.
I'm like where are you?
Like?
He's like I'm like where?
And he's like hawaii.
I'm like you know where I am.
And he's like where.

(44:23):
I'm like I'm in new yorkfreezing my ass off right now, I
mean.
And he's like oh okay, I'm likewhat's the temperature there?
So he tells me the temperature.
I'm like how far are you fromthat beautiful blue water?
He's like I can just walk to it.
I'm like ah it's pretty cool,isn't it?
Huh?
And he's like, yeah, and.
And he was like, well, uh, okay.
And I said, let me ask youanother question.
What do you see?

(44:45):
You know, when you startthinking about becoming a world
champion, you've obviouslythought about it before, right.
And so when you have thisthought, what do you see?
And he's like, well, I, um, andhe started describing it to me,
you know.
And he's like I'm this, I'mthat my wife was world champion
too, and I'm a world.
And we, all of a sudden, ourentire conversation and the
energy turned into the world,world bodyboarding, surfing,

(45:08):
world champion, which I knownothing about.
I mean I'm.
I told them I was like I'mobsessed with what they do,
because the two things I'mobsessed with is fly.
Well, I'm, I'm in love with hisflying and I want to learn how
to surf.
I've always wanted to learn howto surf.
So I'm like I'm like, dude,you're my, you might be young,
but you're my idol, bro.
Like you're doing what I wantto do every day, and so, anyway.

(45:28):
So I started telling him, likestart tell me what that feels
like.
So he starts describing it tome and I'm like where did I
fought for?
And he said well, it was.
It was something that, you know, I thought about.
And I said, well, it formed inyour conscious mind.
It was just, it was a thought.
Then it turned into an imageand when it turned into an image
, you pressed it into yoursubconscious, I mean, you put in
precedent to your subconscious.
It went into the body and youacted and you started, you know,

(45:51):
you started manifesting thingsand he was like okay.
And I said okay, let me ask youanother question do you like
pizza?
And he's like, yeah, I'm like,well, do you ever get hungry?
Order a pizza?
And he's like, yeah, I'm like.
So what happens?
He goes well, I get hungry.
I'm like you think about it,right, you have this fawn.
And then you just go, halfsubconsciously, you order the

(46:13):
pizza.
And then what happens?
And the pizza comes.
So during this process whereyou're waiting for the pizza,
are you sitting back andthinking that your pizza is not
coming, that you're not going toeat, that you're not going to
have food, that the world andthat, all of a sudden, the state
of hawaii is going to run outof pizza?
And he's like no, I alreadyknow I'm going to get the pizza.
And I'm like well, why can'tthe world championship be the

(46:35):
same way?
You know?
Why can't?
Why not think about I know it'sagain?
And I told him I was likethat's just same way.
You've been conditioned to thinkabout the pizza and a hundred
other things in your life.
You want, like a world champion, walk like a world champion,

(46:56):
train like a world champion,because at some point something
is going to happen, you know,and it's when you least expect
it.
And and I said don't go into it.
And that's the other advice Ihave for everybody.
Don't go into it just thinkinglike, oh, when is it coming?
It's going to work, is it notgoing to work?
Because, again, when you detachand you're disconnected from it
and you're just flowing, youknow, you get into that state of
flow where everything ishappening for you.

(47:18):
Then possibilities are endlessand things you'd be surprised.
You walk into a place and youhave no idea.
You know, like how you weremeant to meet somebody, how you
connect with somebody.
Look, I'm sitting here todaywith you and look how, look how
we connected.
Right, we are just being juststrange the way.
I would have never thought I.

(47:39):
I never even look at that otherplatform and then one day I
look at what I see you and I seeyour, the thing you did for our
brand.
I'm like this guy's great Iwant to hang out with this dude.
You know and you just never knowyou know, and it's and it's,
and that's the beauty of life.
And at the end of the day, thatwhich is yours will come to you
, you know, and if you'vethought about it and you feel it

(48:01):
in your heart, it's going tocome to you in one shape or the
other.
The rest is up to you.
What happens is you limit, welimit ourselves.
When we start doubting, when westart thinking all these other
things, when start like well,I'm not again your subcontract,
like I'm not good enough, or whydid I do this?

(48:22):
Or why did I choose this?
Why does it even matter?
You're here now, yes, andthat's a practice of its own.
You're here now and there'sthings that happen to me.
Some days die.
I have no idea.
I'm like, okay, well, this isinteresting, you know, like
literally, I had one of thosedays yeah, like the other day
where, like I was like sittingdown with someone, a hypnotist
that I'm friends with, we'rejust having a conversation she's
helped me out quite a bit inthe past, met her in the

(48:42):
strangest way, and then I startgetting these feels and you
would think, like most people, Iwas thinking to myself on the
way, you know, to one of thescenarios.
I was like most people would beon there, like if this was 20
years ago.
I'd be on the floor likekicking myself and pouting and
throwing things at the wall, andthen I started.
Then, all of a sudden, I feltgood, cause I'm like I really
don't think, it really doesn'tmatter.

(49:03):
At the end of the day,everything's going to be all
right.
You know, and that's theapproach, that's the discipline.
I'm going to stick by the sameway you choose to eat healthy.
Why?
Because you know what you putin is what you get out.
So what you put in here is whatyou're going to get out, and
what you put in here is whatyou're going to get out even
more.
So I mean this, this is amagnet man.
This thing is, like you know,brings itself.

(49:23):
I don't know if I answered thequestion, but you did it just
sharing you know daily life withyou, man, and how that sort of
connects, you know well, I thinkthe mindset, but that's that
mind-body connection.

Dai Manuel (49:35):
I find nowadays it's not like you have to convince
people of this anymore.
They are very aware they mighttry to be ignorant to their own
states at times and try to avoidthat.
And of course, as let mebelieve, sometimes, trump, the
real you know like what's actualreality.
The real, you know like what'sactual reality.

(49:56):
But again it's as you shared,it's a lot of that self
perspective and how itinfluences our outwardly
perspective, right, and how weshow up, and I just keep
thinking of Rumi while you'retalking and so uh, you know
something interesting I justwant to leave you with.

I want to make sure, because people, uh, when
they get exposed to some of thisinformation, it could be on
Instagram, it can be on socialmedia, whatever and I'm not
saying what I'm putting outthere is great or not.
I just share whatever the hellis on my mind, right, but
there's stuff out there.
Like to be a billionaire, youhave to, to be this, you have to

(50:27):
do that to manifest what youwant.
To say these things 12 timeslike people just chill, like
relax, relax.
You know, get to know yourselfand look in the mirror and
realize that you are the one youknow you are, you are the
creator, and then look atyourself and love yourself and
then fall in love with your ownvibration.

(50:48):
That is true power.
From that moment, once you getgood at that, you know and this
is something we have to likeexpand upon in later podcasts we
can also bring people who canteach this.
It's because it really helpspeople.
Man, it's like.
It's not about like.
It's like I was tellingsomebody the other day.
They're like well, what do youthink of the market?

(51:09):
I'm like what market?
And they're like you know theeconomy.
Are you worried about it?
I'm like I created my owneconomy, bro.
And you're like well, how didyou come up with this valuation?
I created my own valuation.
I don't need to go on the sharktank, I don't need to do this
sort of stuff and I'm not beingcocky, it's just that I don't
pay.
Be your own reality.
You know, long as you're doingsomething that's working, you're

(51:34):
helping people, especially inthis day and age, and you're
giving back, and you again, it'sall about that circularity.
As long as it's in a nicecircle, then you have something
beautiful.
But you don't need to likedon't, because I know people
look at that like I gotta get uptomorrow and I gotta go because
this thing, this app said Igotta do this.
You don't have to do anything,you can shoot to do it right and
the rest of it is the rest ofit, and all these guys that they

(51:56):
use is like elon musk wakes upin the morning and eats this and
we don't know he could beeating bacon, egg and cheese for
all.
We have no idea, bro.
Like no, nobody knows any ofthat.
But you know he's in frequencywith everything he's doing, and
so are all these other guys thatthey use.
Guys and, ladies and gentlemen,I should say that they use Guys
, ladies and gentlemen, I shouldsay that they use as comparison

(52:16):
.
That's all they're doing.
They're just in frequency andtheir vibratory outlook is in
harmony with what they desire.

Dai Manuel (52:27):
That's it Right.
It's that alignment ofconscious and self-conscious
right.
When you get those two thingsaligned, oh my goodness, watch
out, because it is life-changing.
It really can be.
But and what we're talkingabout?
It's not like we're talkingabout a cryptic code that you
need to crack.
It's like giving yourself thespace to just start to apply
some of the things we talkedabout they even just meditate.

(52:47):
You know, like just doing alittle bit of meditation every
day, I mean, if you're someonethat loves the science, sure
science has.
Science has come around andsaid, wow, yeah, we'll see a
decrease in cortisol levels,we'll see heart rate variability
decrease, you're going to feelless stressful, you'll be more
present.
You know, and they study thisand they've you know, there's
thousands of ideas aboutmeditation and it's like what
more do you need as aninvitation to just try it?

You know something, Guy If you look at
any amazing person in history,if you look at some of the like
not that I studied dictators,but I always wondered I'm like
how did this guy take over acountry when he was like 18
years old?
Or how did this guy do this?
Or how did I got, or how didthis if you look at anybody
who's done anything I'm notsaying dictators are great, but
if you look at anybody who'sdone anything great or done

(53:32):
something where you're just likehow the hell did they do that?
You have to know that they,even though they couldn't see it
, smell it, taste it, you know,but they believed in it so much
and they stayed so committed tothat belief that they just do it
.
They just did it.
It happened in some way, formor the other.
And then others believed intheir cause or believed in what

(53:55):
they were doing at some pointand I'm sure everybody, like
anybody else, at some point.
Some somebody told Napoleon likeyou're not gonna be able to
conquer nothing, and he's likeyou know, and I, I read
something the other day and theywere saying he's like
circumstances, I create my owncircumstances.
You know, what I meanApparently it was quote by
Napoleon.

Dai Manuel (54:14):
somebody said I can believe it.
I mean, I'm sure he said it inFrench.
But you know, there we go.

I'm not saying Napoleon was a great guy, but my
point is that the guy'sconquered a bunch of countries.
You know what I mean, back inthose days where there was no
GPS and navigation and computersand whatever.

Dai Manuel (54:34):
You're right, you're right, you're right.
And you know, for the sake ofbrevity I do recognize we're
getting on time here, but Ialways like to give you know
sort of that last words from myguests.
So you know, what would youlike to leave today for the
audience?
You know this is sort of yourlast sort of goodbye to them, or
invitations.
What would you like to leavewith them today?

I think it's really important for everybody
to understand these three thingsNot everybody, but if I can
share something with you, if yousaid what are the three most
important things that I can takefrom you, peruz, or what you've
learned, I wouldn't say thesame three things I said at the
beginning of this.
Say the same three things.

(55:16):
I said at the beginning of thisthat your power lies in your
detachment, you know, and beingable to step out and be nothing
and live in the moment.
Your power lies in the present,loving the present moment and
um and and being authenticnumber.
You know, but, most important,knowing you know.
You have two options.
Every day you have to believe.
There's two things you canbelieve in.

(55:37):
One is fear and worry and allthis other stuff which is like,
which slows down your ravelengths, which slows everything.
Everything's moving fast, buteverything just slows down for
you.
And the other option is to havefaith and know everything is
going to be okay, althougheverything is going to move
slower.
Everything around you is movinga lot faster than you imagine
and I would leave.

(55:57):
It's pretty simple and nothingyou know.
Amazing, and I can tell youit's taken me a while to figure
out everything that I've beenthrough, the journey I've been
on.
It's taken me some time tofigure that out, and you know.

Dai Manuel (56:17):
I live by it every day and I try to expand on that
and I try to help other peoplewith it too.
You know so Well.
I really appreciate your timetoday to connect and share some
of these pearls of wisdom thatyou've gathered in your lifetime
and I know it's a constantevolution.
Just based on everyconversation I have with you,
I'm always amazed at how muchmore depth, but also how much
more wisdom I'm able to uncoverin our conversation.
More, um, I just wisdom I'mable to uncover in our

(56:37):
conversation.
So I'm I'm really stoked to haveyou back later, uh, especially
to talk about some of the otherinteresting projects, and I'd
love to have you back to talkabout the community that you're
developing, specifically,because I think it's.
People need community.
We all do, we're all lookingfor it, but but when we align
with the right people, with theright intentions, with the right
support systems, it'sincredible how life can take a
whole new meaning for eachindividual.

(56:57):
That's part of that community,and it's always fun to do it
together.
So I'm going to have you backreal soon.

Awesome.

I appreciate it Seriously.
Lots of love to everybody outthere.
