- 0:00Speaker 1: It's a great adventure to find as many podcasts that
- 0:02Speaker 1: you enjoy in one place. Arrow.net, A-R-R-O-E.net is the place
- 0:08Speaker 1: for you because it's 21 different podcasts. One of the
- 0:12Speaker 1: best right now, something our parents would say. We all
- 0:15Speaker 1: say the craziest things. The coolest thing. is that it
- 0:19Speaker 1: probably dates back to the 1300s. What? Absolutely. Something our
- 0:25Speaker 1: parents would say only on Arrow.net. A-R-R-O-E dot net. Enjoy
- 0:31Speaker 1: your exploration. Hello and good morning. How are you doing today?
- 0:35Speaker 2: Arrow, I'm good. How are you?
- 0:37Speaker 1: Absolutely fantastic and very excited to share a conversation with
- 0:40Speaker 1: you because you and I are on the same page
- 0:42Speaker 1: when it comes to these affirmations. And we got to
- 0:45Speaker 1: start off with the color of the book because they
- 0:48Speaker 1: always say don't judge a book by its cover. Why
- 0:50Speaker 1: not on this one? You picked the most unbelievable earth
- 0:53Speaker 1: tone that is so inviting for any day, any mood
- 0:57Speaker 1: of the week.
- 1:01Speaker 2: Thank you. Thank you.
- 1:03Speaker 1: For you to put this together, did it come from
- 1:06Speaker 1: your personal journeys? Because it really does feel like that
- 1:09Speaker 1: we're sitting inside a room with you and you're sharing
- 1:12Speaker 1: it with us.
- 1:15Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 1:16Speaker 3: It's a combination of my personal journey and journeys of clients, families, friends,
- 1:24Speaker 3: people who share deeply things that they wanted me to
- 1:30Speaker 3: know about them.
- 1:31Speaker 2: Yes, absolutely.
- 1:33Speaker 1: Well, your affirmation for today, the doorway to understanding, my God.
- 1:38Speaker 1: I mean, listeners need to tap into this one. I
- 1:41Speaker 1: guarantee they're going to buy that book because, I mean,
- 1:43Speaker 1: you talk about how we all are. We all like
- 1:46Speaker 1: to watch everybody else, but we have personal struggles of
- 1:49Speaker 1: our own.
- 1:50Speaker 2: Absolutely. And empathy goes a long way.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Yes.
- 1:56Speaker 3: You know, developing empathy is key. into not only understanding yourself,
- 2:02Speaker 3: but understanding others. That's the only way that you have
- 2:06Speaker 3: a doorway to understanding them.
- 2:09Speaker 1: Yeah, and you give us a definition of what empathy is.
- 2:12Speaker 1: I've never heard it put in the way that you do,
- 2:14Speaker 1: and that is empathy doesn't require agreement. It doesn't demand
- 2:18Speaker 1: justifying someone's actions or taking it on their pain. It's
- 2:21Speaker 1: only asking that you acknowledge their humanity. That is a
- 2:26Speaker 1: beautiful statement.
- 2:30Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 2:31Speaker 3: Acknowledging someone's humanity is not easy.
- 2:38Speaker 2: I know.
- 2:40Speaker 3: But it becomes easier when you allow yourself to develop
- 2:46Speaker 3: that empathy, my friend.
- 2:48Speaker 2: Hmm.
- 2:48Speaker 1: Yeah, but you know how we are. We don't think
- 2:50Speaker 1: we're humans. Every one of us think we're superheroes working
- 2:54Speaker 1: for either DC or anybody else that's putting... We could
- 2:58Speaker 1: be anime characters and we think that's our lifestyle.
- 3:04Speaker 3: Yeah, that's the problem. That's the dilemma that we are
- 3:08Speaker 3: going through. You know, at the end of the day,
- 3:11Speaker 3: no one... No one is a superhero. We are humans
- 3:18Speaker 3: and we feel, we have feelings. That is what empathy
- 3:24Speaker 3: is about, is understanding that others feel the same way
- 3:30Speaker 3: you feel. And when you understand that, you have a
- 3:34Speaker 3: doorway to understanding them.
- 3:36Speaker 2: As I said earlier, we are not superheroes.
- 3:40Speaker 1: One of the things that I love about this book
- 3:42Speaker 1: is that you're so honest and transparent with us because
- 3:45Speaker 1: we are in an age right now where there is poverty.
- 3:49Speaker 1: It's on the increase. Our identities are damaged, and there's
- 3:52Speaker 1: a lot of bullying going on at work. We need
- 3:55Speaker 1: this book. What did you feel in your heart for
- 3:57Speaker 1: you to say, it's got to come out right now
- 4:00Speaker 1: in this moment?
- 4:04Speaker 2: You know, my father used to say.
- 4:07Speaker 4: When I was down and coming back from school and
- 4:13Speaker 4: being bullied and I would be on the floor crying
- 4:16Speaker 4: and he'll say.
- 4:18Speaker 2: Son, there is nothing under you, only the ground.
- 4:24Speaker 3: What are you gonna do now? Stand up and move forward.
- 4:28Speaker 3: And those for me represented those limits. I had to
- 4:33Speaker 3: shatter those limits.
- 4:34Speaker 2: We have limits.
- 4:37Speaker 3: Everyone wants to set limits in our lives, you know,
- 4:42Speaker 3: and that's what I want to do with this book
- 4:45Speaker 3: is to shatter those limits and go beyond that comfort zone.
- 4:50Speaker 1: Don't those limits get started, though, with something that you
- 4:53Speaker 1: put inside the pages about determining what inspiration and reflection are?
- 4:58Speaker 1: They are not one in the same, but it does
- 5:00Speaker 1: give us that opportunity, though, to find a limit and
- 5:02Speaker 1: or a border, doesn't it?
- 5:06Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 5:07Speaker 3: As I mentioned many times before, there's a difference between
- 5:11Speaker 3: motivation and inspiration. When you reflect upon your life, you
- 5:16Speaker 3: are not only inspired, but you have a desire.
- 5:21Speaker 2: To move forward.
- 5:23Speaker 3: With motivation, it's just an external factor that doesn't last long.
- 5:32Speaker 1: Please do not move. We'll be right back with Nordin
- 5:34Speaker 1: Zorig coming up next. The name of the book, The
- 5:39Speaker 1: No Limits Life. We are back with former Mr. Universe,
- 5:43Speaker 1: Nordin Zoreg. I want listeners to understand the importance of
- 5:46Speaker 1: this book and why they need to add it to
- 5:48Speaker 1: their lifestyle. And I mean lifestyle, because the thing is,
- 5:52Speaker 1: is that you put focus on more than just our
- 5:54Speaker 1: moment now. But the thing is, is that the attention
- 5:57Speaker 1: also goes to this thing that I call post-production blues.
- 6:00Speaker 1: We bust tail to get our job done, but nobody
- 6:03Speaker 1: is there for us when the job is done and
- 6:05Speaker 1: we go into a mini depression. This book will pick
- 6:09Speaker 1: you up in a heartbeat.
- 6:14Speaker 2: Absolutely, you do not need.
- 6:18Speaker 3: Others to give you that, you know, instant gratification about whatever.
- 6:24Speaker 2: You're doing in your life. You're doing it for you.
- 6:26Speaker 3: Yep.
- 6:27Speaker 2: That is what people need to understand.
- 6:30Speaker 3: Do what you're doing the best you can without paying
- 6:35Speaker 3: attention to what others are going to say or do.
- 6:40Speaker 1: Getting out of that comfort zone. I mean, you believe
- 6:43Speaker 1: that there's strength in that. A lot of people tend
- 6:45Speaker 1: to run away from that. And you give us that
- 6:48Speaker 1: opportunity to really kind of turn around and face the fire, basically,
- 6:53Speaker 1: and take those steps.
- 6:54Speaker 2: Go win. And that's why they call it comfort zone.
- 7:00Speaker 3: You know, comfort zone where reality is no longer available
- 7:03Speaker 3: to you. That's why they're running away, because they are
- 7:05Speaker 3: comfortable in their misery. Hmm.
- 7:09Speaker 1: But you know how we humans are, though. It seems
- 7:12Speaker 1: like when we start living a more positive life, it
- 7:15Speaker 1: seems like we lose our friends because the other friends
- 7:18Speaker 1: can't keep up with us. I suggest you just buy
- 7:21Speaker 1: this book for the friends. But is there an easier
- 7:23Speaker 1: way to keep our circles tight and growing forward?
- 7:26Speaker 2: Absolutely.
- 7:30Speaker 3: The only way you do that is teaching them that, hey,
- 7:33Speaker 3: we are humans. Yes.
- 7:35Speaker 2: But there's something else.
- 7:37Speaker 3: Within us, and that's the spiritual experience that we have.
- 7:42Speaker 3: That is at the core of everything that I do,
- 7:46Speaker 3: is being inspired by something else rather than just, you know,
- 7:53Speaker 3: the material world, which is good, but it's not the only,
- 7:59Speaker 3: not at the core of why we're here for it.
- 8:03Speaker 2: We're not here just to gather stuff, more stuff and
- 8:07Speaker 2: more stuff.
- 8:08Speaker 3: We're here to live and love. That's why we're here.
- 8:16Speaker 1: Learning to love all living things. That's what we're taught
- 8:19Speaker 1: in martial arts. And boy, that'll change your eyesight in
- 8:21Speaker 1: a heartbeat when you start realizing there's a lot more
- 8:24Speaker 1: to life than just yourself.
- 8:29Speaker 3: Absolutely. Absolutely.
- 8:31Speaker 1: Your identity and the empowerment that you've got in building
- 8:36Speaker 1: our own destiny. There are so many people now that
- 8:39Speaker 1: are relying on others to create the path for them.
- 8:42Speaker 1: Or even worse, they're relying on AI technology to do
- 8:45Speaker 1: the work for them. You're very open with us when
- 8:47Speaker 1: it says build your own destiny. Do it yourself.
- 8:53Speaker 2: Absolutely. You know.
- 8:56Speaker 3: Building your own destiny is being able to create your destination.
- 9:03Speaker 3: Putting a plan together, knowing where you're going, where is
- 9:06Speaker 3: that leading you?
- 9:08Speaker 2: Do you even know where you're going? Then when you
- 9:12Speaker 2: know that, put a plan together.
- 9:14Speaker 3: Put that, you know, this destination is destiny.
- 9:19Speaker 2: When you know where you're going, that is your destiny.
- 9:23Speaker 2: Put a plan together, execute.
- 9:26Speaker 3: Create that map and start moving forward.
- 9:32Speaker 1: You've talked about how we can't rewrite our past, but
- 9:36Speaker 1: the problem is, though, is that we're rewriting our past
- 9:39Speaker 1: in a way that we want to accept it. And
- 9:41Speaker 1: the thing is, though, is the past is not going
- 9:43Speaker 1: to change. How can we get people to get the
- 9:46Speaker 1: weight off their heart of that past? Learn from it,
- 9:49Speaker 1: but stay present. Don't you agree with that? Absolutely.
- 9:54Speaker 3: The past... can teach you something, but it also can
- 9:58Speaker 3: destroy your life because you're in the same, you live
- 10:02Speaker 3: in the same things emotionally, except that the event is gone.
- 10:06Speaker 2: Somebody said something or did something to you and you
- 10:08Speaker 2: reliving that you emotionally, you are emotionally driven by those.
- 10:14Speaker 2: And guess what? So that event is gone. That person
- 10:18Speaker 2: is gone. So the past does not exist. It's gone.
- 10:23Speaker 3: You need to move forward with new chapters in your life.
- 10:27Speaker 3: You need to reclaim that pen and write your new chapter.
- 10:32Speaker 3: Don't let others or circumstances write that chapter for you.
- 10:36Speaker 3: Don't let life create your chapter. You create your own chapter.
- 10:42Speaker 3: Letting go of the past.
- 10:45Speaker 1: I love where your heart is. You have got to
- 10:47Speaker 1: come back to this show anytime in the future. The
- 10:49Speaker 1: door is always going to be open for you.
- 10:51Speaker 2: Thank you, Arrow.
- 10:55Speaker 1: Well, you be brilliant today, okay?
- 11:00Speaker 2: Thank you so much.
- 11:01Speaker 3: And again, for those, please pre-order the book at every store,
- 11:06Speaker 3: any store that sells books. You're so right.
