  Hey brothers just wanted to share a download coming through
• 0:03
  today that creation and
• 0:07
  creativity can be very easy is very easy when it's just flowing
• 0:14
  you just let it
• 0:15
  flow I think we can get so many ideas that creativity is hard
• 0:22
  and it all has to be
• 0:24
  meticulously planned out and meticulously edited and there's
• 0:27
  all these steps you
• 0:28
  SPEAKER_00: have to go through and
• 0:32
  a lot of that can just be burnt down you can just throw away
• 0:36
  all those ideas
• 0:37
  because the most important thing initially is to just get in
• 0:42
  the zone of creating
• 0:44
  and publishing ongoingly because if you don't have that skill
• 0:49
  if you haven't opened
• 0:50
  the volcano of just being able to create ongoingly then it's
• 0:58
  not going to matter
• 0:59
  SPEAKER_00: how good your strategy is if you
• 1:02
  SPEAKER_00: are not able to be a fire hose of creation.
• 1:08
  Like if that's your calling,
• 1:09
  then first and foremost,
• 1:10
  you need to just open the fire hose.
• 1:13
  SPEAKER_00: And that can be really liberating and really simple.
• 1:16
  SPEAKER_00: Because literally,
• 1:18
  SPEAKER_00: you can just press record on a video,
• 1:21
  SPEAKER_00: stream of consciousness,
• 1:22
  SPEAKER_00: just talk about something,
• 1:23
  SPEAKER_00: and then just immediately upload it just how it is.
• 1:26
  SPEAKER_00: Like it's that simple.
• 1:28
  SPEAKER_00: The vast majority of my videos have just been
• 1:31
  SPEAKER_00: Me doing that with zero editing.
• 1:34
  SPEAKER_00: Similar with social media posts or blog posts that are written,
• 1:38
  SPEAKER_00: like you can just sit down,
• 1:40
  SPEAKER_00: write something,
• 1:41
  SPEAKER_00: 100,
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: 200,
• 1:42
  SPEAKER_00: 500 words stream of consciousness,
• 1:45
  SPEAKER_00: just hit publish and toss it out there.
• 1:50
  SPEAKER_00: Vast majority of my posts are written that way with very little editing.
• 1:54
  Maybe I read back through them once or twice before publishing
• 1:59
  and just put them out there.
• 2:02
  SPEAKER_00: If it's a longer essay,
• 2:04
  SPEAKER_00: I might do some deeper revision or editing,
• 2:11
  SPEAKER_00: but so much of my creativity just occurs as a pure flow of inspiration,
• 2:20
  SPEAKER_00: just letting it flow,
• 2:22
  SPEAKER_00: letting it rip,
• 2:23
  SPEAKER_00: putting it out there.
• 2:25
  SPEAKER_00: And I think a lot of you guys are actually creating a lot in your life,
• 2:31
  SPEAKER_00: but there's a gap between
• 2:33
  creating and publishing you're like creating tons of stuff like
• 2:37
  gold in your
• 2:38
  journals or in your poetry books or in the background but
• 2:42
  you're you're not just
• 2:44
  hitting the publish button so that's that's a gap to overcome
• 2:49
  as well you want to
• 2:51
  just become become comfortable with open sourcing your life and
• 2:57
  open sourcing your
• 2:57
  process if you're called in that direction you know not
• 3:00
  everyone is authentically
• 3:02
  SPEAKER_00: called to go there
• 3:03
  But I think a lot of us here have this authentic calling to
• 3:07
  open source our lives
• 3:08
  SPEAKER_00: and our process and our creativity for the good of all.
• 3:11
  That's part of our medicine to just pulse and blast our signal
• 3:17
  into the field.
• 3:19
  SPEAKER_00: It's a very noisy world and your signal is valuable.
• 3:23
  SPEAKER_00: The signal that really comes from your heart,
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: your wisdom,
• 3:27
  SPEAKER_00: your inner child,
• 3:29
  SPEAKER_00: your true voice,
• 3:31
  SPEAKER_00: your true pain.
• 3:34
  SPEAKER_00: Another common fallacy is like,
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_00: oh,
• 3:36
  SPEAKER_00: I can't create or record right now because I'm in pain,
• 3:39
  SPEAKER_00: I'm struggling.
• 3:40
  SPEAKER_00: But that's the goal.
• 3:42
  SPEAKER_00: We need that.
• 3:43
  SPEAKER_00: That's the juice.
• 3:44
  SPEAKER_00: We need to hear about your pain, your struggle.
• 3:47
  You recording a stream of consciousness video about your real
• 3:51
  pain probably be more
• 3:52
  powerful than a hundred videos of you having a peak experience
• 3:57
  and being like,
• 3:58
  SPEAKER_00: I'm so enlightened right now and life is easy.
• 4:01
  SPEAKER_00: Like,
• 4:02
  We Need Your Pain There's So Much Juice There There's So Much
• 4:05
  Rawness Potency Power
• 4:08
  And Realness There And Yeah It's Such A Common Fallacy In The
• 4:15
  Spiritual Community
• 4:16
  Of Like Oh I'm Not Enlightened Enough Yet So I Who Am I To
• 4:22
  Share Anything It's Like
• 4:23
  Nobody's Actually Enlightened Enlightenment Is A Lie There Is
• 4:27
  No Destination
• 4:29
  SPEAKER_00: of Enlightenment.
• 4:30
  SPEAKER_00: No one is fully enlightened.
• 4:31
  SPEAKER_00: Anyone claiming to be fully enlightened is full of shit.
• 4:35
  And you should stop listening to that person because God is
• 4:38
  inexhaustible.
• 4:40
  SPEAKER_00: There's a reason God is known as infinity.
• 4:44
  SPEAKER_00: Infinity goes on forever.
• 4:46
  SPEAKER_00: There's no end to deepening with God and opening to God.
• 4:51
  SPEAKER_00: And thank heavens for that because that is
• 4:53
  SPEAKER_00: Eternal Fulfillment.
• 4:54
  It just fulfills on ever and ever deeper levels and further and
• 4:59
  further oceanic
• 5:01
  depths of mystery are revealed and ever more profound love is
• 5:06
  revealed and embodied
• 5:09
  SPEAKER_00: and shared.
• 5:11
  SPEAKER_00: And so when you realize that,
• 5:13
  SPEAKER_00: it's just like,
• 5:14
  SPEAKER_00: oh,
• 5:15
  SPEAKER_00: we're all like children on our hands and knees,
• 5:17
  SPEAKER_00: like just getting started and eternity's
• 5:20
  SPEAKER_00: Bates111 Council of Kings
• 5:47
  you have way more of value to share than you might realize and
• 5:51
  so just got to burn
• 5:53
  down those barriers and get that skill moving of just
• 6:00
  volcanically putting it out
• 6:02
  there just eliminate that gap between creation and publishing
• 6:08
  eliminate that gap
• 6:09
  between experiencing and creating like all of life is art and
• 6:13
  all of life can be
• 6:14
  SPEAKER_00: translated into art at any time
• 6:18
  SPEAKER_00: and the best way is when it's easy.
• 6:22
  SPEAKER_00: Like the best way is when it's just pure inspiration.
• 6:25
  You're just like having an insight or you're feeling something
• 6:29
  hit you in the heart
• 6:31
  SPEAKER_00: and you're like,
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_00: I just feel a spontaneous overflow,
• 6:37
  SPEAKER_00: a creative inspiration to translate this into art right now,
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_00: translate this into a video,
• 6:42
  SPEAKER_00: translate this into an audio like I'm doing right now.
• 6:47
  just like burn down the gap and just get comfortable being that
• 6:52
  fire hose of signal
• 6:53
  and then over time you can shape your signal more you can for
• 6:57
  one you can see who
• 6:58
  your organic signal is attracting that's extremely valuable
• 7:02
  because those people
• 7:04
  are going to be like your true soul family if you are sharing
• 7:07
  your raw soul the
• 7:09
  people who resonate with that are going to be the souls that
• 7:12
  are most closely
• 7:14
  Link with you and most closely similar to your template in this
• 7:17
  lifetime.
• 7:18
  So that's a huge upside of prolific creativity is that you call
• 7:25
  in the soul fam.
• 7:29
  SPEAKER_00: And at the same time,
• 7:31
  SPEAKER_00: over time,
• 7:32
  SPEAKER_00: you can also get clearer on like,
• 7:34
  SPEAKER_00: okay,
• 7:35
  SPEAKER_00: what are some of my most central messages?
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_00: Like, if I'm trying to also create an ecosystem that
• 7:44
  SPEAKER_00: or a business around what I'm doing.
• 7:46
  SPEAKER_00: What am I actually offering to people?
• 7:50
  SPEAKER_00: What services am I offering?
• 7:53
  And how can I start to shape my art and my content to speak
• 7:58
  even more directly to
• 8:00
  the person I'm creating for and educating them about what I'm
• 8:05
  creating for them and
• 8:06
  SPEAKER_00: what I'm offering for them?
• 8:09
  But you won't be able to do that effectively if you haven't
• 8:12
  already developed the
• 8:14
  SPEAKER_00: skill of just being the fire hose of creativity,
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_00: just being the volcano,
• 8:19
  SPEAKER_00: giving zero fucks what people may think about it.
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_00: And the way to do that is just baptism by fire, just putting the reps in.
• 8:28
  SPEAKER_00: You can't think your way into not caring what people think.
• 8:31
  You just repeatedly subject yourself to the fire and realize
• 8:35
  that it doesn't
• 8:39
  SPEAKER_00: actually affect your deepest essence.
• 8:42
  Connect to the part of you that's completely beyond any
• 8:46
  criticism or any other
• 8:48
  SPEAKER_00: human ape's opinion of what you're doing.
• 8:51
  SPEAKER_00: Be open to feedback for sure.
• 8:52
  SPEAKER_00: Be open to reflections, but just don't give a fuck.
• 8:57
  what people think just put your organic signal out there and
• 9:01
  know that if you're
• 9:02
  really laying your heart and soul on the line on the real and
• 9:06
  sharing what's real
• 9:07
  for you then that echoes for eternity and the opinion of no
• 9:13
  mortal can touch that
• 9:15
  so just put it out there and yeah like I say as you develop
• 9:25
  that skill you can
• 9:26
  SPEAKER_00: shape it more over time
• 9:28
  to be more dialed in around what you're specifically offering
• 9:34
  and then even then
• 9:35
  though you still like for me I still need to make plenty of
• 9:39
  space for just organic
• 9:40
  inspiration organic creativity it's never worked for me to be
• 9:45
  overly rigid or
• 9:46
  formulaic or overly planned out I'm sure some people can do
• 9:50
  that but for me like
• 9:52
  Sometimes I just wake up one day and I thought I was gonna work
• 9:55
  on one thing but
• 9:56
  then I'm just like I feel like I'm meant to make a song right
• 9:58
  now and then I Just
• 10:00
  trust that make the song and then I listen to the song like a
• 10:03
  hundred times over
• 10:05
  the next couple days and it's like a charge up a power up that
• 10:08
  I needed and so you
• 10:11
  want to leave that open space for pure inspiration and honor
• 10:15
  that pure inspiration
• 10:16
  SPEAKER_00: when it's coming through because I
• 10:19
  SPEAKER_00: Otherwise, it can dry up.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_00: You can lose touch with it.
• 10:21
  SPEAKER_00: I mean, it is truly limitless inspiration.
• 10:24
  SPEAKER_00: The well of inspiration is limitless.
• 10:26
  But if you're not honoring your pure inspiration,
• 10:31
  it might vacate for a while.
• 10:33
  It might go speak to someone else and try to find another
• 10:36
  portal to manifest
• 10:37
  SPEAKER_00: through because you're not honoring it.
• 10:41
  SPEAKER_00: So honor that inspiration and don't keep it to yourself.
• 10:43
  SPEAKER_00: Don't keep it locked up in your journal where no one can see it.
• 10:47
  Put it out there so that other people can receive it and
• 10:49
  benefit from it and find
• 10:51
  SPEAKER_00: medicine in it.
• 10:54
  SPEAKER_00: So thanks for listening.
• 10:56
  SPEAKER_00: Brothers, much love.
