Controlling your emotions.
I feel like it's an importantpart of life that.
(00:39):
Eventually.
Actually, if you don't controlit.
It will control you and youwon't have.
The life you want, but before weget into that, Let's go let's
go.
And today's.
Quota today.
For Morgan Freeman.
(01:01):
Don't allow your emotions tooverpower your intelligence.
I love that quote because.
Sometimes we can let ouremotions lead when we.
Should let our intelligence or,or, or the logic part.
Us.
Take control because deep downwe know.
Regardless of where.
Reacting any new in an emotionalway.
(01:24):
We know there's a better way.
Way to do things.
But when you're not in controland it takes over.
You feel like.
It's not even you.
Starfish.
And like, Like you're made up ofdifferent people cause.
The same.
New.
The U does not in an emotionalstate can make a decision.
based on.
(01:44):
Was going to really work there'sa saying that says the heart,
your heart can deceive.
You.
Right.
Because, you know, the heartwants what it wants.
It's not.
Concerned about.
Or the.
Other factors.
And we know.
Sometimes what you.
One is not enough.
Sometimes.
No matter how you do the math.
Certain things just don't add toa positive result.
(02:05):
And they might be layers.
Outside of that.
besides what it is that might.
Effect that so.
Being in control of youremotions and.
Catching yourself.
And doing things.
In a way that.
You know, you won't regret.
Let it.
I think is worth.
Working.
And on and, you know, and.
Trying to find.
Find a way to use.
Your knowledge, what, you know.
And I say, mix it in with theemotion.
(02:27):
Cause we don't want to be.
All emotion and be all logic.
You know what I'm saying?
We ain't trying to be like spot.
A sudden his bad logical.
For my star Trek fans out there.
I ain't go for, I, wasn't neverreally a thought.
Jack fan.
So I sold the movies and themovies were fired.
I liked them shits.
Captain Kirk, I forgot son name,but he's a good actor.
He should.
Definitely have been Batman.
Nobody wouldn't accept thatwhere he would have played a
(02:48):
great, great Batman.
But yeah, man, as far as thequarter today, I say, try to
balance it out.
Like.
Don't let your motions.
Lead you is.
It's like, you know what I'msaying?
When.
You know, when you dancingright.
You to do, you can't let thewoman lead.
You gotta lead in order for thedads to be.
Right.
Yup.
The masculine imaging.
But yeah, let's get into theepisode.
Controlling your emotions.
(03:11):
I wanted to give you like mypersonal experience.
Not control.
Controlling my emotions has ledto a lot.
Of.
Things.
I see.
Spiritually physically.
Right.
When I used to live with mybrother.
I used to see that I couldn'tcontrol my emotions from all the
holes.
In the walls.
Oh shit.
(03:35):
No, no.
And my brother's deliver.
So when I go visit him, it'd befunny.
Cause I just be like, damn man.
Like, it just reminds me where Iwas at and they'll get me while
I'm in the way, but a placecause.
You know, our firm punchingshit, then you know how to.
At a timeline, you.
You know, I kind of was like,people don't like the mission
like that when I call out.
I used to jam myself up everynow and then I used to really.
(03:56):
Be mad.
And then you think that seemslike a normal thing, but it's
like a, like, almost like a,some self.
I hate.
Like you need to talk.
To a therapist type of thing.
But yeah.
I've let my.
My emotions.
Dictate a lot.
My life.
Where like, you know, I'm 36and.
I'm not where I want to be.
And I know it was a result of.,doing shit when I felt.
Like it.
(04:17):
Or letting something that didn'tgo my way affect.
Me from getting the things thatI needed to get done.
For the future.
I wanted to not repeat the sameprocess.
So now.
Not controlling my emotions.
I will dwell in the plane in themisery ozone.
It was almost like it was like acomfort for me.
Like, it's weird to say that,but it.
It felt like.
You know, I was, yeah, I got.
I've done this, like, this iswhat I do.
(04:38):
You get comfortable.
And then.
Something happens that you wishthat.
You would have got.
That you were already ready forby the time it got there.
And I noticed that was thatReoccurring thing in.
My life where like, I would nottake.
Take care of business, then theopportunity will come up that if
I would have took care ofbusiness, Opportunity and
preparation would have met.
You know, but It's not to behere thinking about the woulda
(04:59):
coulda shit of is.
This is literally.
Being aware.
And trying to find a way to notrepeat that process.
Cause.
You know how many times.
You gonna go through the sameshit before you realize though
you.
You know, you always gotta betrue to yourself.
Can't let your emotions lead.
Everybody.
I don't know if I explained iton this show, but the real
estate story that I always bringup.
(05:19):
My downfall was.
After my mom died, I did it.
You know, I, I avoided.
The pain as much as I could.
You know what anything I couldthat's when I found I wasn't.
Netflix dude, until thathappened.
My sleeping schedule was thatbill fucked up into that
happened.
I didn't smoke cigarettes.
You The way I used to.
Until that happened.
(05:40):
So I will always do things yo,and like, just to, to distract.
And one of the, my distractions.
Was uh, my ex girl.
And.
at that time, I was like onsome, like, it's her was nothing
like, you know what I mean?
I can look back.
Back and read at a page that'sat all while my life will never
be this.
Ain't what I heard and all thisother shit.
And I'm like, damn.
Not good solo.
My emotions.
(06:00):
It changed the.
Trajectory.
Of my life.
And I literally, like, Iremember.
I would go to the real estate.
State office and my manager willalways shout a talk to me and I
was.
Was so focused on the fact that.
I was aware.
No more.
I could've focused on the factthat yo you build.
No.
A real estate career where themanager's telling you.
He wants you to replace him.
(06:21):
Now I was off of me to believethat it is says because.
You know, the politics involved,but it was good to hear.
But I literally, my depression.
All that.
All the real estate.
Systems are built.
Or just my confidence.
Once in my approach and the lawof attraction and the way I made
it work for me, I let it.
All go down the drain.
(06:42):
Because I couldn't accept.
That something wasn't going tobe the way that I.
Planned it to be.
Right.
Like, it's crazy how we get.
Mad.
Because they didn't go How weplanned it to be right.
And y'all already know, I don't.
Don't do the religion, but I dothe truth and I do.
We'll make sense.
And.
Yeah.
I mean, I like drags.
(07:02):
God's plan.
If it's not part of God's plan.
The world.
Your life is going to let youknow.
You know what I'm saying?
And I feel like.
The way guys.
Talks to me other than my mind.
Is my gut.
Oh, my God power was in my gut.
Literally.
Like.
Every single one.
Every single thing I've donebeen through.
My gut has told for like, it'stold me.
What was gonna happen?
Happen to the point that I'mlike, yo, do I got psychic
(07:24):
abilities?
And I don't know.
I just realized.
I think I'm an empath.
Cause I couldn't let it reallytell.
You, everything from your energyis either you, it got to a point
where either you made it ontelling the truth or I'm bugging
the fuck out.
But yeah.
Not controlling my emotions, mywhole real estate career.
With down the drain to the pointthat I, even to this day, I
haven't been able.
(07:45):
I haven't reclaimed that, youknow, may not became.
Came.
Independent.
And.
I've been trying to like.
I don't know, I guess repeat it.
Or get to that same level, butI'm in a Lifeway now it's
different, you know, I got apodcast.
As growing and is going to beone of the best podcasts.
You've ever heard in your life.
And other things I got in planin store, you know, and.
(08:06):
It is old for Ray and riders.
So.
You know, I got a dopemotivation and I've had the
motivation for you.
But like, I just didn't turn iton.
it needs to be turned on that.
And when I think back of.
All the decisions are made.
Purely based on emotion.
You always been me in the ass.
Cause you got to listen to thatvoice in your head that knows.
Nos.
That knows the heart is dis.
You know what I'm saying?
(08:26):
The CVU in is like, nah, Don'tlisten to duke.
Man, I know you need them, butyou know, I was saying.
Can't listen to duke all thetime.
Sometimes.
Your heart rate.
The only way to know.
No that though.
Is.
What your mind.
Mind tells you what that guttells you.
Cause your heart might tell youall the.
Time, yo go for it.
And I'm sorry.
We conditions through movies to.
(08:46):
I think like, You know, doingthe boombox.
Box method or.
You know, you're going to getthe happy ending and, life
doesn't work out like that.
Cause.
In the movies it's.
Written.
And life.
Certain things are not.
Written.
Actually There's no guarantees,but certain things are written.
You just got to know thedifference of.
Is it a page you wrote Everycause of course, man.
(09:09):
This is a bigger creativeevolve.
The NOLA, this.
Like we all connected throughthis.
Through this creator.
And we all have different namesfor him.
We will have different.
Ways of approaching, but as thesame.
It's the same.
It comes down to the same thingyou believe in something.
You can't see.
See.
(09:29):
That was here before you.
And if you.
You can do that.
Then you can do the same withyour life.
So as I reflect on.
Things that did.
Yeah, me and.
He'll emotions.
Effect.
Every part of your life.
You know, it doesn't matter whatit is.
But let's start with like work.
And I'm gonna use an examplefrom somebody that I'm close to,
(09:51):
but it.
It has to be said, Had a job.
Right.
It's the person I knew had ajob.
And.
Someone would say racist remarksand this person I know.
You.
He don't play that shit.
He li he.
his word.
And his code is all he knows.
And.
he ended up.
Not going to do it out.
And got fired.
(10:11):
Right.
And he had a great job.
He was dead for a minute.
Both, but in a moment of.
Not.
Not being able to control your.
Your motions and.
And.
Not thinking about all thethings your.
Sacrificing for your ego, youranger.
And poof.
Just like that.
That person's been trying tofind his way of a sense.
(10:32):
So.
You know, and.
Your job.
You might not.
You know what I'm saying?
You might take off the wrongperson.
I'll tell you my, my personalexperience.
So when I was working at, wewere, before it came to an end,
the boss's son.
You know, try to strike hispower.
Try to make.
Let me do shit during the timeof pandemic, whenever it was
(10:54):
already done.
Almost like to showcase, but.
I couldn't.
Control my emotions.
I let him know what's up.
Cause I've.
I've always had a voice.
I never had a voice.
I just could have.
Spoke in.
In a, in a better way, but.
ended up getting out of hand andthey moved me to some spot and
then they were like, finish him.
I'll stop mortal Kombat shit.
(11:18):
Yeah.
Especially.
Yeah, you don't want to, youdon't want to play with your
paper, man.
So.
So.
Keep your shit in tack.
And.
And I think about going postal.
Like I'm amazed to hear that,but I didn't know.
That like.
Somebody hated their jobs somuch.
They, you know, they, they lostit.
And.
And if you don't address it, Andlet it come out when it needs.
(11:40):
To come out.
You're going to let it out and.
In the worst.
Way possible.
And.
Sometimes.
I ain't no coming back from it.
It was just sad.
In your relationships.
you ain't going to front, man.
Like I've had like, My favoriterelationships are the ones
that's like.
You're like, we just love nomatter what, there's no.
(12:00):
Expectation.
There's no.
What's the call?
It.
There's no scheduled.
To keep.
There's no.
We're not keeping track of whocalled.
Call who.
You know what I'm saying or who.
I was saying that that's.
When you want some whole othershit.
You know, sometimes we get mad,especially if you've seen the,
we went to go see the person 10times.
You haven't seen us, you know,But that's been a communication
(12:22):
come evolve like, yo, I'llappreciate it.
If you don't you come check meout too.
You know what I'm saying?
I like.
You know, show me, you love metoo.
But still there's never noanimosity in.
In certain situations.
But you not.
Be able to control youremotions.
You can hurt the person youlove.
You can make them feel like you.
Taking them for granted.
When you got unresolvedemotions.
(12:43):
They kind of shift.
So something that is happeningin another part of your life,
you might take.
It out on a relationship, but itcould be a spouse.
It could be your family member.
You know, some people take itout and the parent's like,
listen, Sarah at parents, mostparents they're growing with.
With you like, as you'regrowing, they're growing as a
parent.
It's up to.
You to fix shit when you get,when you become an adult, like.
(13:06):
Like really like this things.
And it's crazy cause.
You know, I will.
About, you know, my parents andI'm like, Now I'm a parent and
I'm like, yeah, you know what?
You ain't perfect.
Either dog.
There's so many times that youfeel like, damn I could have did
this better.
You could have did that better.
When they get older that, youknow, that just be drawn to.
(13:27):
Have the best interests, butthey biz interests and what they
want.
To do might not always meet.
when.
You haven't found the properway.
Too.
Here your emotions, or be ableto.
You know, go forward smoothly.
You start turning to thingslike.
Alcohol drugs, nicotine.
(13:49):
You know, there's an opioidthing.
Like anything.
To numb you address.
Addressing it and facing it.
And you don't.
One thing I noticed.
I ain't going for, I don't thinkI mentioned it this season, but.
Season two had quit smokingcigarettes and at some point.
That shit got me, but
Malcom (14:07):
At some point he fucked
up Every time, a smoke, a
cigarette.
The problem still is.
Well, you got to think.
Think about that, you do to healyour emotion is going to be
there.
So why not work on.
The problem.
So, yeah, outlet is notsomething that can take.
You away.
From your family.
You understand what I'm saying?
Yeah, I'll they gotta besomething that.
(14:29):
also is healthy for you.
And.
In them.
Because.
Yeah, you got to look out foryou, man, but there's certain
decision that affects everybodythat you love.
You know what I'm saying?
Like you'll rest in peace to.
The Jason man.
Your hurt me, man.
I.
And I'll be to her.
It was celebrities, of course,Colby MJ.
(14:50):
But.
Uh,
His own life.
You know what I'm saying?
He didn't.
You got hopeless, right?
Like.
You know, he didn't.
I guess he felt like he time,you know, and sometimes it could
be like that, but.
As long as you alive.
To fix things.
(15:11):
Like.
As I mentioned.
Mentioned earlier of me punchingthe war should like that.
Yo there's friends.
That the friends don't callthem.
Knowing that they're going to bein situations.
And they might act up.
I don't remember.
There was an uncle.
With the family.
Wouldn't like, he was so cool,but nobody liked the guava him.
Cause he was over.
He's ready to pop off.
And it's crazy, right?
(15:31):
Like, When I was younger, Ididn't think that was a big
deal, but you like yo.
A lot.
A lot of, a lot of tough shit.
behind it.
Like that ass, like.
All that tough shit.
from the surface.
You really insecure.
Yeah, Eagle controls.
You.
(15:52):
And human influence.
from the surface.
You really insecure.
Yeah, Eagle controls.
You.
And human influence.
By people that are not livingprobably the life that they
saying they are like, it's justa whole.
Whole bunch of differentfactors, but.
You don't want to be, so youdon't.
You don't want to be the personthat people don't want to take
you nowhere because you don'tknow how to act.
(16:13):
Or, you know what I'm saying?
Like, we all know those people.
Um,
You know, there's people
that you, you could bring them
anywhere and it's all good.
But then, you know, you got.
Is there any situation likethem?
This might not go well.
If I bring.
Bring this person, because thisperson doesn't know how to,
they're not the massive, theiremotion.
They let other people dictate.
Cause it's like, like it's all,some Hoke shit.
(16:33):
Shit.
You know what I'm saying?
But no gamma rays.
Come on.
Yeah, it was.
And then one of those outbursts,they may not be no coming back
from.
Oh man, like.
outbursts.
Where I broke a cell phone andnot dead ass.
Didn't have money for anothercell phone for like another
month.
The worst ones.
(16:54):
The roll rage, right?
Cause yo.
You're so mad that somebody.
Cut you off that you got toshoot them while you're driving
in, not even knowing if theygot.
Baby in the car.
Like, this is a worldwide thing.
A lot of people need to reallythink.
Think about what the fuck theybe doing then like, Yeah, you
got to worry about you, but thisis you, not the only person in
the fucking world, man.
So you, it's up to you to.
(17:16):
To.
You know what I'm saying?
Hone your shit, man.
So you, it's up to you to.
To.
You know what I'm saying?
Hone your shit, man.
Because.
You're going to put yourself injeopardy or somebody else in
jeopardy.
And think about that.
Right.
(17:36):
There's people that.
Kill someone.
Or, those.
Slow sleazy best friends and allthat shit, which.
When I was younger, I really,really thought.
And the boy was cool.
Like, oh, you just live in likeyou just doing what you want.
But.
We don't.
Realize that.
(17:57):
There's an energy force aroundthis.
Like us as.
As people.
And us in the world and energy.
Energy transfers.
So.
If you're just.
Doing stuff on the surface.
Um,
You might, you know what
I'm saying?
You're going to get all that.
(18:18):
Trauma.
If you don't really know theperson, that's why I heard
somebody talk about whatnightstands it should.
Like that at me personally.
Yup.
I got close one time, but.
You know, never happened.
But now But now I see a.
Different.
Like, I don't know.
I don't The way I see it.
I.
Only four, you know, of course Iwant to live good, but mostly,
you know, I want my kids to havethe best of everything.
(18:41):
And.
The only things that matter tome.
All the things that I do tobetter their lives in mind.
Right.
I don't even watch sports nomore.
I used to watch.
TV.
I can watch first take no more.
Cause the way they did.
Kyrie is a lot of shit.
It's changing for me, right.
Right now in his wild man.
And I feel like the maturity andit's like all I'm.
(19:03):
Missing is that extra?
You know what I'm saying?
Like this is the time in mystory from when you started
hearing the podcast.
This time is the most importanttime of my life.
And through.
This journey that I had with me.
Yeah.
We'll hear the growth.
And I was expecting.
Experienced the growth has takenlonger than I expected.
But.
(19:24):
I realize that there's noshortcuts and you've added.
There's a bridge you got to getthrough.
Like you can't go to Statenisland.
Unless it's the ferry or youcross that bridge.
You ain't got a choppa.
You know what I'm saying to becoming down this shit, like on
some SWAT shit, like.
(19:44):
You know, there's only, youknow,
Uh,
but It's the one that
you know is right.
It's not the same as every otherperson.
It's not this one bridge.
Everyone had their own bridge,but.
There's a bridge.
You got.
To get across.
To make it to that other side.
Cause when you at right now,you're not.
You know, and it's all, this isthe bridging your head.
(20:06):
You know what I'm saying?
All this is taking place in yourhead, which is fire.
All right.
So there's a lot of people that.
Suppress their emotions.
And that's what leads them tooutbursts and shit like that.
Uh,
These are people that
repressed their emotions.
so both of these things.
A preview.
Prevent you from experiencingand expressing feelings.
(20:30):
So.
For the ones that.
I think they got the emotionsintact because they don't let it
out.
You're oppressing a lot ofthings that just building up
inside and the way you going.
And release it as fucked up, oryou're going to find ways.
To cope with.
It.
When there's ways.
To be one with it to.
B.
(20:50):
To have a healthy relationshipwith yourself and be.
Healthy.

Sleeping disorders stayed up allnight, thinking about solutions,
thinking about this thinking.
About that.
Like not putting that shit, thebed, you know what I'm saying?
living.
In a memory of the past.
It's true though.
Like think about it, right.
Even if something new that Yourbrain recognize it as something
(22:36):
that you went through.
Because I feel like when it'ssomething like totally new that
you haven't went through, that'swhat you get the shock.
That's when you get like, that'swhere she can.
I get traumatic.
But the depression, I feel likeit's.
It's natured.
It's rooted in.
The way you handled things inthe past.
Maybe you weren't proud of it.
Maybe you could have handled itbetter, but then you don't have
(22:56):
confidence.
That you're going to.
better this time.

you know, There's just
no way around you being.
In this way, and there is youjust have a full autumn of, to
be honest.

Progress.
But you can't have with the onewithout the other, if you.
Talking that talk, but notwalking out book.

You take an action.
But not talking or thinkingabout it.
Like all these things.
(23:38):
Like.
When they come.
Together.
You know what I'm saying?
They formed the Megazord.
I'll fall back.
Thinking about power and justmash.
That's the piece of Tommy again?
Uh,
And when you, you know,
Look, stress.
Yes.
Cortisone.
All that shit leads to disease.
And leads to.
(23:59):
You being the worst version ofyourself?
So we got to have things inplay.
That battle stress.
You got to have defenses likeAmerica.
If somebody tries to cross thatline from another country.
We got.
Got stuff.
In order that when nine livecourses is automatic, We should
win that shit down.
I just saw a.
Handmaid's.
(24:19):
His tail when they try to
uh,
They try to save Hannah
and.
He shot the fucking planes down.
Spoiler alert.
Uh,
But it.
I was fucked up.
I mean, but you gotta have thatshit.
Like where yo, where stresscome.
You know what you gotta do.
You know, you gotta hit thatgym.
Get them dolphins, you know, yougotta meditate.
Get one with the creator.
Or pray, whatever you need todo.
(24:40):
Getting into that, you know, getinto that bag and into that
positive.
Positive bag.
Because you can have that money.
The bag, but if you positive.
I mean, if you're negative.
And you don't know how tomanage.
This shit.
Correlation with the way youmanage your money, whether you
believe it or not.
Uh,
a lot of people,
(25:00):
uh,
Talk about impulse.
Impulse is a big factor, butwe'll get in.
We'll get into that later.
You can't control that if youknow, you got to do.
Steady work.
But you giving into yourimpulses and you doing.
You know, just not eventhinking.
How can you be rich like that?
Right.
Cause.
All or even be successful, evendo good cause.
(25:23):
I feel like.
It's taken away your impulsetakeaway for new discipline.
Your discipline is you.
You know, Being intact likethat.
You D like, You're not playingaround.
You're not.
We.
We spoke about Wow.
The impulse really affects yourdiscipline.
You know,
Uh,
being on point, get shit
done.
(25:44):
But if you.
Skip certain parts.
You.
Have you.
certain thing that you'redisciplined to, to act on your
impulses.
You'll never truly.
Truly be free.
Right.
Like.
What your impulses are likereally?
Pay.
Attention.
(26:04):
You know, like if you feel acertain way
Um,
Do you feel, you know,
that you go smoke?
Did you go watch TV?
Like.
Um,
things that you want to
do.
You can do them.
At a better time.
Uh,
And you got to know what
your triggers are, what makes
you just want to act on it?
(26:25):
Like.
And the sum and most of thethings that.
If it's not like a positive.
Impulse, the things that we acton.
Set us back a little bit.
So.
And the best thing you could.
Do is be aware.
Change the channel and no.
There's no success.
If you can't control, when youdo something.
(26:47):
You know, if you impose.
Impulse.
If you can control your impulse.
You know, Well, well, you're notgoing to control.
All of it, but for the mostpart, Discipline is the intac
and you'll be able.
To finish what you start.
And you'll be able to stayconsistent.
And.
It's the only way to seeprogress.
Staying discipline.
(27:08):
Think about all like, yo, a lotof I said this in another
episode, but a lot of the dudes.
A lot of those, you know, havemilitary background.
That discipline is, is wow.
Like even.
Even if they didn't get shitfrom that, I see that a lot of
them got.
That like.
That should don't leave them alot of.
I'm still run.
(27:29):
Fat and everything, but it'sstill be running.
Still.
Still do they bed?
So.
Repetition.
Is the friend to discipline.
And impulses that cousin, thatit could be the good cousin or
it could be.
My cousin t-to.
That nigga.
(27:49):
Oh, man.
Shout out.
Shout.
The family.
Um,
So the ego.
We know it.
You know, is data protect youfrom being hurt?
Over rejection or you feelinglike you about to be embarrassed
in front of It's wild.
Just think.
Thinking about all thesituations that could have been
(28:09):
avoided.
If people will keep the ego intech.
And your ego worries about afuture.
That's like, it's not even hereyet.
Like.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, you feel like you gotta belike, This.
So you gotta be like that, oryou're not going to take this.
And sir.
So it could help you with.
You know, with the.
You know, with the negativepeople.
(28:30):
The ego can let you deflectthem.
But sometimes you let yourEagle, the flag.
The people that I want.
To be there for your life and.
Help you out.
As opposed to.
You know, make it more difficultfor you.
First thing you could do ischeck your motherfucking self,
like that ass check yourself.
Like.
(28:50):
That's That's one thing I'vebeen good about.
About man.
There's a lot of dudes and a lotof people wanted to snuff,
especially when I lived inBrooklyn.
But.
I thought about theconsequences.
I kept my ego in check because Iknew.
I couldn't always be around toprotect my brother.
And then God forbid somethingwould have happened to my
brother.
My ego would have went out thewindow.
I would've shot K.
I would.
Everybody.
A family like.
(29:12):
You know this, you know, likethere's.
There's those fathers that.
Or family members dag.
Uh,
You know that rape or.
And you know, this is where Idon't give a fuck about none of
that.
Like you could.
You can kill the person that.
Enslaved you raped.
You kidnapped you.
(29:32):
If you kill them to get free.
We live in a world with.
You're still responsible.
So with the unfair shit that's Ifeel is in place.
We got to control motions withthe police.
Like.
Yo they tough.
Cause they got the gun.
A lot of them dudes was.
Herb's don't get me wrong.
I never give credit to the goodcause.
(29:53):
Man.

And shout out to yeah.
But we talk about them.
Pussy ass cops.
That needed a gun to be tough.
You know what I'm saying?
That they, that they did thisshit for power.
And they definitely use theirpower in the.
Wrong way.
But shout out to the good cops,but.
You know them.
I'm not controlling.
Their motion is killing a lot ofmy people.
(30:14):
People.
And is that what I'm saying?
Rest in peace.
All those people there.
You know,
uh,
was that.

Dick had that couldn't controlhis emotions.
And.
Let the field overall.
Overwhelming to the point thathe had.
You know, they had to take yourlife.
You know what I'm saying?
Like, I'm sorry.
We live in that world with.
(30:34):
We just got to.
You know, I've seen people getUp.
Sometimes there's nothing youcan do about it, but.
If you can add.
Ad.
Not even say nothing.
I mean, I don't know.
We got to try something.
'cause God damn.
All right.
So.
Go.
Right?
What other.
What happens if you don't putyour emotions in control?
(30:57):
You're going to have unhealthyass relation.
Relationships.
With.
Majority of people.
And you don't want to end the.
Damaging a relationship.
That's Medford.
You know, meant to be a positiveforce in your life because.
You.
I don't know how to handleyourself.
You don't know how to like.
Chill.
(31:18):
And.
Especially, you know, therelationship with yourself.
You know, knowing that you havesome type of control.
Oh, Any type of control feelsgood, but nothing's control
that.
You have on you.
Um,
That.
You blacked out.
And ain't no coming back from.
(31:39):
No.
I just know.
That's the path.
That you could be on if youdon't figure this shit out.
I've had moments like that.
I'm like, yo, I get so mad aslike I see red.
Red and thank God.
I think God that I've alwaysfind the way.
Hold myself in.
I have.
I go for, I got more angertowards fucking laptops in.
(32:02):
Like digital shit on my phonetaken awhile.
I'll be ready to fucking flingthat shit.
But even that.
People don't pay attention tothe little, you gotta pay
attention to the little thing.
Cause.
If you're doing shit like that.
For little things, you're goingto do it.
It even worse for.
Well, you know, the things thatare worse.
Um,
and then, like I said
interesting Regrets.
(32:24):
You know how many regrets I haveof.
Uh,
you know, I remember one
time I was at.
Family thing.
And I remember I just comparemyself to my uncle.
And I was like, oh yeah, I thinkI'm like Miguel.
Right?
And no one ever, no one evenmentioned.
His name, but that was like someinsecurity I had it, but I
remember like blacking out allemotional.
(32:45):
And I remember, like I asked theco and I going to find your
eyes.
Gotten way better.
I used to be so much worse.
And I like that.
I have
uh,
I've seen progress.
In myself, which is good, butthere's still another level I
got to reach now, especiallythat I got.
My babies, my little babies.
Yeah, of course life test.
(33:06):
Uh,
Out of control.
Like.
You know, just pulling out thatmotherfucker, you going to just,
you.
And I feel like that's how lifewould be You'll fix that.
You can't, you can't steal that.
At steering wheel.
That's out the long run.
I mean, I, you can't controlthat steering You're not going
(33:28):
to control this vehicle of life.
See the decision that.
You've made that made sense.
Like taking that class or takingthat career.
And then you look at.
The decisions you.
You based on your emotion andyou see like, You're dealing.
With all the.
(33:48):
Analytical stuff now that youpass.
The.
Emotion part, the real shit.
It gives you a dose of reality.
I have banana.
We spoke about that.
Let's speak about.
Of course the best part of beingable to control your emotions.
Like.
You have better relationshipswith the people you love.
You have a better relationshipwith yourself because you.
(34:10):
I know that.
No at least nine or eight out.
Out of 10 times, you're going tobe able to hold on.
Stop thinking about it.
And.
Let it go, right?
Because it's all about lettinggo.
When you add that moment ofemotion.
Motional control.
You know, When it's time to letgo.
(34:31):
And let God, you know, And like,I take work when you not.
In sync.
Sync.
With how you feel.
And if you want.
What's the what's the same.
If you only work when you feellike you'll never be rich,
you'll never make money.
So that's telling you rightthere.
When you don't feel like.
(34:52):
Doing something and you do it.
That's a sign.
Of progress and this.
A sign of.
Someone's successful.
They're not being.
Being reactive.
They're being proactive.
You know what I'm.
I'm saying, but.
They'll make you proud.
(35:14):
It'll.
Let you see maturity.
And balanced, right?
Cause we don't want.
We don't.
Nothing's ever completelybalanced, but you don't want
everything to fully be on oneside and where it holds.
Right.
I have everything on one sideadds weight.
You want to add weight.
(35:35):
You want to feel.
Light.
You know what I'm saying?
Like on some carbon fiber shit,I just thought this Batman.
And then we have the carbonfiber because it makes the car
move faster.
But.
You know what I'm saying?
You want to be good.
And that self.
Control is self-mastery is like.
Tell me what's better.
Better than that.
I think like what's better thanthat.
(35:55):
You got self-mastery.
sex and how you do something ishow you do everything.
So you can control youremotions.
If you can control what you eatand you can control what goes in
your body.
You can control what goes inyour bank account and what comes
out your bank com.
And everything is incorrelation.
For a healthy.
Good successful life and yeah,you're going to have downfalls
(36:16):
and yeah, you're going.
I have.
Keeping yourself intact.
And, you know, there's a time.
Time and place for everything.
I'm not saying that you can'tlike if.
If you're mad, you want to punchsome shit?
There's a gym.
Or a bag.
That you can buy that you canfuck that shit up.
And it's a good way to release.
Right.
Um,
If you want to cry.
(36:36):
And your pillow and scream andfucking punch the fucking.
Fucking pillow, fucking do it.
Just don't do it.
In front of people, certainthings you could do in front of
people showing you emotionsactually helps.
With the right person in the.
Right time.
But.
When you're.
Not in tune.
(36:57):
You're going to while out soon.
Do now to.
to get better.
And I, which I'm here doing thesame thing.
But accepting your emotions.
It's a big part of it, exceptthat you feel.
That way.
You know, state that you feellike that.
(37:18):
That.
Ways, you know, Ax, why you feelthat way?
Get into the heart of it.
And then you realize, and thensee what.
What are your other options?
Because sometimes you thinkthat's the only way.
And then once you.
Start calming down thing, toomuch options.
It makes it makes a difference.
And this was mentioned to me, mymom, my home girl, Sally.
She told me yo, when you feel acertain way, journalists,
(37:39):
because then you know what youdid.
Did that data feel that way?
So you know how to almost, youknow, Change what happened
happens next time.
And after that was dope.
And I don't know, there'ssomething I feel about
journaling that is like, It's away to.
Like.
Almost like a, you.
Like a closet.
It's it's You put it in thecloset, right?
(38:03):
And you take.
Take everything you've beenthrough and went through for
that day.
And you put it in this.
In his book and it just like, itcomes off.
You.
You know what I'm saying?
And.
You can throw the your closet,you could see how, if you keep
shit from you, keep OSHA.
You see how your style was alittle bit bougie back in, you
know, a couple months ago.
(38:24):
And now you get a little bitclean.
You know what I'm saying?
And I am speaking for myself.
I need.
I need to clean it up.
I need to get in shit.
I need to be that example.
That I admire.
It's where I'm getting them.
You got to give yourself spacespaces in point, man.
And any type of situation.
Sometimes you need to breathe.
You need to not think you needto give yourself.
Space, go watch a movie, go takea walk, go laugh.
(38:47):
Walking.
Walking is dope, man.
This time.
It's like, I walk for dumb shit.

Ready to go like, yo, somethingas small as like 20 minute walk.
You know, there's also walkingmeditation.

way you could fail.
Fail, how would you go aboutthings and yo that's that fake

And everything is all good.
When it's in the creator'shands.
God has a plan, but in thetwang.
Swans, which are actions andbeliefs.
Your motions can be the best.
Or the worst part of you?
But like captain planet.
Used to say the power is yours.

When you take control of thewheel, not only do.
You take control of the music.
But you choose.
The road you.
