- 0:02Speaker 1: I studied the darkness. You find no answers in the light. None.
- 0:08Speaker 1: It's too happy, it's too nice, and we're not. We
- 0:10Speaker 1: need to be taught how to live in happiness that
- 0:13Speaker 1: just comes naturally to us happy moments. But the dark times, man,
- 0:17Speaker 1: you can't and you can't get there unless you put
- 0:20Speaker 1: yourself there. Life will take you there. But when you
- 0:23Speaker 1: get into those dark moments, it's why people. That's why people.
- 0:26Speaker 1: How are you able to?
- 0:26Speaker 2: Man?
- 0:26Speaker 1: I couldn't read and write to I was a junior
- 0:28Speaker 1: in high school. How are you able to write like this? Man?
- 0:31Speaker 3: Motherfucker.
- 0:34Speaker 1: I go to such places in my mind and I
- 0:37Speaker 1: study the darkness, like it's not just physical. When I
- 0:41Speaker 1: was growing up and I saw my mom getting beat,
- 0:43Speaker 1: and I got beat, and I was some stuttering little
- 0:46Speaker 1: black kid in all white school and I'm on stage
- 0:49Speaker 1: and I gotta say one line, one fucking line in
- 0:51Speaker 1: front of fifteen people, and I walk off stage of stutter.
- 0:55Speaker 1: All those insecurities and all those things. Man, I used
- 0:59Speaker 1: to go home and cry, I'm my god, man, it's off.
- 1:03Speaker 1: I'm hang on.
- 1:04Speaker 3: Man.
- 1:05Speaker 1: As I got older, we gotta study this, man, the
- 1:07Speaker 1: only way we're gonna get through this if we study it.
- 1:10Speaker 1: So every time I'm in the dark moment and life
- 1:13Speaker 1: up around me, whether it be physical or just life,
- 1:16Speaker 1: I get in it. Man with it can pen and paper.
- 1:18Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, this can sucks. I can feel like
- 1:21Speaker 1: I'm losing my ship. Let's can study this. Let's come
- 1:25Speaker 1: out of this motherfucker genius. You know I started. I
- 1:28Speaker 1: studied the black matter of the mind, the dark matter,
- 1:33Speaker 1: you know, like Dvan Hawkins. That's that's name. I said
- 1:35Speaker 1: it right, That's where I consider myself. Man, you know,
- 1:38Speaker 1: I was on a journal just like you said. I mean,
- 1:40Speaker 1: you couldn't say any better, and so many people get
- 1:43Speaker 1: it wrong. I don't give a man, you can't for me.
- 1:47Speaker 1: I cannot help people. There's a lot of cookie cutters.
- 1:50Speaker 3: Out here in this world.
- 1:51Speaker 1: Oh, discipline, make up early, take coach, shower this that,
- 1:56Speaker 1: whatever it's offing bullsh it's not. But what they don't
- 2:01Speaker 1: teach you within the cookie cutter is like our minds
- 2:05Speaker 1: are like a fucking garage. And the garage if you
- 2:10Speaker 1: open the garage and it's all cluttered up, it's off up.
- 2:12Speaker 1: You can't put your car in there. You got boats
- 2:14Speaker 1: and you got fucking kids, toys and everywhere. But if
- 2:18Speaker 1: you organize that garage and you put everything in a
- 2:21Speaker 1: rightful spot, you can pull that car in there, you
- 2:24Speaker 1: can put two cars in there, you put bikes in there.
- 2:26Speaker 1: And that's like with the mind. People talk about discipline, determination,
- 2:30Speaker 1: repetitions and all this consistency. White people fall off the
- 2:35Speaker 1: wagon so often is because their mind is fullish. There's
- 2:40Speaker 1: no room in that mind for discipline. There's no room
- 2:43Speaker 1: for consistency. They may do it once or twice, but
- 2:47Speaker 1: then the mind takes over and that cluttered in garage
- 2:50Speaker 1: comes in and then it's like a circuit breaker, man.
- 2:53Speaker 1: A circuit breaker just overloads and sparks and our minds.
- 2:57Speaker 1: That's that's our mind, man. It's like a circuit breaker.
- 3:00Speaker 1: So much in it you keep on loading it. You
- 3:02Speaker 1: can't put any more into it. So I talk about
- 3:07Speaker 1: it in there, man, so much about clearing space in
- 3:10Speaker 1: your fucking mind. So then you have room for all
- 3:13Speaker 1: those discipline waking up early, taking those because they do
- 3:17Speaker 1: mean something, But we don't get to that dark matter
- 3:21Speaker 1: that is keeping you from clearing out that mental garage.
- 3:25Speaker 4: That's a good way to put it, because that is
- 3:28Speaker 4: the mind of most people is filled with stuff that
- 3:32Speaker 4: they have to move around to get to what they want,
- 3:35Speaker 4: and it's constantly piling up and unorganized and organized.
- 3:40Speaker 1: Mind man you're looking at I got to take care
- 3:42Speaker 1: of the kids. The kids scaredules off up, my husband
- 3:44Speaker 1: and my wife. You know, I'm I'm going by McDonald's
- 3:47Speaker 1: to get this, and I'm rushing my schedule. Everything's this.
- 3:50Speaker 4: I wish I was doing this, but I'm doing that.
- 3:52Speaker 4: That's it and that and this, and I want to
- 3:54Speaker 4: raise but I can't get What's it? A boss of asshole?
- 3:57Speaker 1: Where's greatness in that? Man? You can't You can't can't
- 4:00Speaker 1: fit discipline in that. You can't fit structure, you can't
- 4:03Speaker 1: fit consistency, You can't fit the grind, and then when
- 4:06Speaker 1: you try it gets can overrun by the f clutter
- 4:11Speaker 1: in your mental garage.
- 4:15Speaker 5: My favorite quote of all time by ts Eliott, those
- 4:18Speaker 5: willing to risk going too far can possibly find out
- 4:22Speaker 5: how far one can go. Notice that it says those
- 4:25Speaker 5: willing to risk you have to risk failing, You have
- 4:28Speaker 5: to risk getting mocked. You have to risk your safety
- 4:31Speaker 5: and security if you want to find out how far
- 4:34Speaker 5: you can go, If you want to find out how
- 4:36Speaker 5: many lives you can touch if you want to find
- 4:39Speaker 5: out what it tastes like at the top, you have.
- 4:41Speaker 3: To be willing to risk going too far.
- 4:44Speaker 6: Someone has to have the vision. God gives a vision
- 4:47Speaker 6: to a person, and that person leads many.
- 4:50Speaker 7: People out of a dark situation.
- 4:52Speaker 6: So you may be chosen with your vision to lead
- 4:55Speaker 6: your family out of the cycle of limitation, to lead
- 4:58Speaker 6: your people out of poverty. Maybe if you were the
- 5:00Speaker 6: leader that was called to lead everyday people to stop
- 5:04Speaker 6: believing that there's no hope further life.
- 5:08Speaker 3: God will test you with suffering.
- 5:09Speaker 8: God will test you with challenges.
- 5:10Speaker 3: God will test you with difficulties.
- 5:12Speaker 8: God will test you with hard times. But that is
- 5:14Speaker 8: when the proof of your faith is manifested, not when
- 5:17Speaker 8: everything is given to you, not when it's easy, not
- 5:19Speaker 8: when times are simple. But in the challenges. Do you
- 5:22Speaker 8: curse God or do you bless Him for giving you
- 5:25Speaker 8: the opportunity to experience these challenges and experiencing difficulties to
- 5:29Speaker 8: become better and to get closer to him.
- 5:32Speaker 9: Life is hard any way you choose to live in
- 5:36Speaker 9: your dreams, demand sacrifice, discipline, and resilience. Yes, it's hard,
- 5:42Speaker 9: but so is living with the weight of unfulfilled visions
- 5:45Speaker 9: and regret. Pain will always be a part of life,
- 5:49Speaker 9: So tell me what pain will you do?
- 5:53Speaker 10: You should feel fantastic when you're given a challenge, When
- 5:57Speaker 10: hard is put in front of you, you should say, finally, God, Universe,
- 6:01Speaker 10: finally you've given me something difficult. My life has been
- 6:05Speaker 10: too easy for too long.
- 6:06Speaker 3: I'm too capable to live.
- 6:07Speaker 10: Such a meager existence and simply survive with sustenance and netflix.
- 6:13Speaker 9: I needed a challenge.
- 6:14Speaker 10: I needed something difficult.
- 6:15Speaker 3: Finally, Thank you.
- 6:17Speaker 10: You're never going to be a good man or good
- 6:19Speaker 10: at being a man without pain and suffering.
- 6:21Speaker 7: You're going to have to go through a.
- 6:22Speaker 10: Bunch of shit and have a terrible life to become
- 6:24Speaker 10: a good man. I think you should embrace that and
- 6:26Speaker 10: accept it. And I think that the correct mental model
- 6:29Speaker 10: for men to have is a degree of stoicism and
- 6:31Speaker 10: not to be too concerned with even how they feel.
- 6:34Speaker 10: If I woke up today happy, If I woke up
- 6:37Speaker 10: today and happy, I would have done this interview with you.
- 6:39Speaker 10: If I woke up today sad, I would have done
- 6:42Speaker 10: this interview with you. What's the difference? Why put so
- 6:45Speaker 10: much important notes on my emotion? If certain things must
- 6:48Speaker 10: be done. I must work, I must train, I must
- 6:50Speaker 10: see Tucker Carlson, I must resist the matrix. I've got
- 6:53Speaker 10: things to do. So when men say, oh, don't, I
- 6:55Speaker 10: feel sad.
- 6:56Speaker 3: Who cares? The world doesn't care.
- 7:00Speaker 10: Men who are out here to destroy you and take
- 7:01Speaker 10: your girl don't care.
- 7:03Speaker 3: So why do you care?
- 7:04Speaker 10: Like the person who should care at least is you.
- 7:07Speaker 10: You're the only person who wakes up every day who
- 7:09Speaker 10: should have a genuine, invested interest in improving your life.
- 7:12Speaker 10: Nobody else wakes up and wants to prove your life,
- 7:14Speaker 10: only you.
- 7:15Speaker 3: You should be a monster, an absolute monster.
- 7:17Speaker 4: You should be ruthlessly ambitious.
- 7:20Speaker 3: And then you should learn how to control it.
- 7:22Speaker 4: And it's that old expression, it's better to be a warrior.
- 7:24Speaker 3: In a garden than a gardener in a war.
- 7:27Speaker 11: You have to make the task small enough so that
- 7:31Speaker 11: you'll do it, no matter how small that is. If
- 7:35Speaker 11: you make the task small enough, I've never seen anyone
- 7:40Speaker 11: not be able to progress if they made the task
- 7:43Speaker 11: small enough.
- 7:45Speaker 9: Your story may not have a happy beginning, but that
- 7:48Speaker 9: does not make you who you are. You are not
- 7:51Speaker 9: defined by what was out of your control. It is
- 7:53Speaker 9: the rest of your story what you choose to do
- 7:56Speaker 9: about it. Who you choose to be. That is the
- 8:00Speaker 9: real you, So tell me who are you.
- 8:04Speaker 11: The hero is the person who confronts horrible, chaotic potential
- 8:08Speaker 11: and tames it and makes something of it. Right, that's
- 8:11Speaker 11: the fundamental human story. But the problem is that you
- 8:14Speaker 11: have to face what you don't want to face in
- 8:15Speaker 11: order to fix it. And so you look at all
- 8:18Speaker 11: the things about yourself that need to be burned off,
- 8:20Speaker 11: that need to be dispensed with, and that mad, especially
- 8:23Speaker 11: at the beginning, especially if you're screwed up, that may
- 8:25Speaker 11: be like ninety five percent of you just has to
- 8:28Speaker 11: go up in flames, and it's painful. Even some of
- 8:31Speaker 11: that stuff that you have to burn off doesn't want
- 8:33Speaker 11: to die, and it'll scream in agony while you're burning
- 8:35Speaker 11: it off. It's not pleasant. But if you know that
- 8:38Speaker 11: you're the thing that can transcend your problems. Most fundamentally,
- 8:41Speaker 11: if you know you're the thing that, if it faces
- 8:44Speaker 11: the problems, can transcend them, then you have the faith
- 8:47Speaker 11: that would enable you to take stock of who you are.
- 8:50Speaker 7: And remember this, you'll be alone in the most difficult
- 8:54Speaker 7: times of your life. These times will make you wise.
- 8:59Speaker 7: You all and fearless. No matter what good you do
- 9:05Speaker 7: to people, they will only remember your mistakes. No, it's
- 9:12Speaker 7: one of the most powerful words in existence. Don't be
- 9:16Speaker 7: a people pleaser. For the best, prepare for the worst.
- 9:24Speaker 7: To reach somewhere, you need to leave something behind. When
- 9:29Speaker 7: you are angry, stay silent. Don't waste your time with explanations.
- 9:37Speaker 7: People only hear what they want to hear. Accept criticism,
- 9:43Speaker 7: but never accept disrespect. The best way to respect yourself
- 9:48Speaker 7: is to discipline yourself. Never give up on something you
- 9:53Speaker 7: really want. It's difficult to wait, but it's more difficult
- 9:58Speaker 7: to regret. Let success go to your head. Don't let
- 10:03Speaker 7: failure go to your heart. If you are a giver,
- 10:07Speaker 7: remember to learn your limits because the takers don't have any.
- 10:13Speaker 8: There is no safety in a job. There is no
- 10:15Speaker 8: safety in a degree. The only security is found within yourself,
- 10:18Speaker 8: your skills, your network, your resources, your abilities, your mindset,
- 10:22Speaker 8: your intelligence, the things that you can actually control. Dude,
- 10:25Speaker 8: life isn't safe. The highest risk takers are the people
- 10:27Speaker 8: that win. And here's the thing. I prefer going out
- 10:30Speaker 8: with nothing having gone all in and tried, because I
- 10:33Speaker 8: end up with nothing. Either way, I die naked and alone.
- 10:36Speaker 8: So that's why I don't take it so seriously. Everybody's
- 10:37Speaker 8: out here taking it seriously. They're going to take it
- 10:39Speaker 8: with them like they're going to be remembered in one
- 10:41Speaker 8: hundred years.
- 10:42Speaker 12: I don't care who you are, how much money you have,
- 10:45Speaker 12: what do you have going on when you get out
- 10:47Speaker 12: of bed. Every day life is standing right there to
- 10:50Speaker 12: punch you in the mouth, and you have to overcome
- 10:53Speaker 12: all these different struggles in life every day. I actually
- 10:57Speaker 12: love when adversity is thrown at me and I have
- 11:00Speaker 12: to deal with that stuff.
- 11:01Speaker 13: This is kind of part of being a man. It's
- 11:03Speaker 13: like you kind of got to fuck it all up
- 11:06Speaker 13: a little bit, I think so. I think part of
- 11:08Speaker 13: learning is dying. I think part of learning is you
- 11:12Speaker 13: got to die a little bit, because what is learning
- 11:14Speaker 13: learning is me giving up on my old shit, my
- 11:16Speaker 13: old ideas. Those ideas have to die for me to
- 11:19Speaker 13: be open to some new shit. And so me learning
- 11:21Speaker 13: how to be a better man.
- 11:22Speaker 3: I had to die a little bit.
- 11:23Speaker 1: And when you kill sit inside of you, man, there's
- 11:25Speaker 1: a fucking hole and you don't know what to put
- 11:28Speaker 1: in there.
- 11:28Speaker 7: Right.
- 11:28Speaker 3: Just got to find the right food, right, got to
- 11:30Speaker 3: find the right.
- 11:31Speaker 13: Food and I was lucky to have like some good
- 11:34Speaker 13: dudes in my life at the time when it hit
- 11:36Speaker 13: for me to be able to fill it with the
- 11:37Speaker 13: right shit.
- 11:38Speaker 2: The man who never fail, the man who never fail
- 11:42Speaker 2: has no glory.
- 11:43Speaker 3: The man who fail and got back up, that's where
- 11:46Speaker 3: his glory is.
- 11:48Speaker 2: The man who fell twenty times and got up twenty
- 11:51Speaker 2: one times, that man has even greater glory. Wow, that
- 11:55Speaker 2: man has more courage, way more courage than the guy
- 11:58Speaker 2: who was so strong from birth he never failed. There's
- 12:01Speaker 2: no glory in that. And so I just, you know,
- 12:04Speaker 2: I just try to encourage guys to say, hey, we're humans,
- 12:08Speaker 2: and but we have inside of us. We have a courage,
- 12:13Speaker 2: and we have a determination, and we can have a
- 12:17Speaker 2: strength and a gentleness at the same time.
- 12:21Speaker 3: Uh, and that's our glory.
- 13:40Speaker 8: Up.
- 14:12Speaker 1: I think I think, I.
- 14:16Speaker 4: Think, I
- 14:20Speaker 13: Think I had
