- 1:10And I was sitting with a little sister there and we was having a conversation.
- 1:15And as a matter of fact, this episode, it's that little conversation is the
- 1:20inspiration for this episode of this wonderful episode.

- 1:26I'm your host, your beautiful host of the Deconstructing Topic podcast.
- 1:33Don't mind me if I'm trying to catch some air. I'm kind of like walking here
- 1:36in the heat with a little sweatsuit.
- 1:39Because, hey, listen, last night I had a good time.
- 1:42A couple of beers, a couple of drinks here. went to
- 1:45a festival there going on in umacao and
- 1:48you know i gotta sweat out those uh toxins away
- 1:52so don't mind me but you know what when you're
- 1:55listening to the deconstructing type of podcast it's always a good beautiful
- 1:58thing because it's like wow this dude
- 2:01is just straight up genuine like you know what i'm saying you don't need no
- 2:05sometimes you don't need no sparkling stuff or anything oh ah you know some
- 2:10of those special sound effect because i am the sound effect And I am David And
- 2:14this is the Deconstructing Topic Podcast And let's get on with the show Because you know what?
- 2:20It's just so funny how having that conversation with the little sister there.
- 2:25Basically, she was like, how can I say? So she was drinking an espresso martini, right?
- 2:31And I don't think I ever had an espresso martini. I had martinis.
- 2:34Let me tell you something.
- 2:36My history with martinis, I used to be like, damn, that's that fancy stuff.
- 2:42You know, give me some bourbon on the rocks, double, cognac.
- 2:47But let me tell you something. When I started drinking martinis years ago.
- 2:53Very underrated, good stuff.
- 2:56So props to the bartenders, props to the places out there that serve a good
- 3:00martini. Because sometimes you need it. It's going to kick. It might look fancy.
- 3:04Don't let that cup fool you, you know? But anyways, as I'll be drinking the
- 3:09espresso martini, she started talking about the conversation,
- 3:14started talking about manifest and all that.
- 3:16It's just like yeah well a few hours ago
- 3:18i was i needed coffee and i needed a
- 3:21drink and boom espresso martinez and we were like laughing and all that good
- 3:26stuff it's like well i guess that is manifestation and it's up right you know
- 3:30and it's like i started to kind of think and you know as i'm telling little
- 3:35stories about my life because hey listen everybody that i come across,
- 3:41I gave them my deconstructing topic
- 3:44podcast cards so they could listen and I was giving them a little story and
- 3:48this I start to realize that a lot of these stories that I have in my life There
- 3:54was a source of manifestation and as I'm talking with the little sister we Laughing
- 3:59good thing. She said She was laughing.
- 4:02She's like, oh my god, you're so funny.
- 4:04I'm like, you know what? Thank you I appreciate that. You know what I mean?
- 4:09Of course, I'm funny Of course, I'm whatever But you know, that's what makes
- 4:13this podcast so cool Because I was laughing too Oh, I'm funny?
- 4:19I'm funny, good thing I didn't do that good fella thing You know what I mean?
- 4:23If you know what I mean For those people who watch Goodfellas Was it Goodfellas?
- 4:27Yo Pesci? You think I'm funny? You think I'm funny?
- 4:30My God But anyway, just the fact that Just that conversation Just the fact that
- 4:36she mentioned those things You start to think What is manifest? You feel me?
- 4:41How can we make manifest fun? Sometimes people sit down and they go into this
- 4:46deep rabbit hole of manifesting.
- 4:49And I get it. And I'm with you.
- 4:53So the fact is that as I'm, you know, we kind of joking around in a good sense,
- 4:58having a good time. I'm like, wait a minute.
- 5:00I just told her this story about how I got to the workplace that I'm working.
- 5:06And the fact that I sat down just about in front of the building that was the
- 5:11building where I consider my home in terms of my job.
- 5:15And we are talking about 10 years before as a young kid.
- 5:21You start to think how powerful the mind can be if you really put yourself into
- 5:28that manifest kind of bubble kind of thing and again you know we could have
- 5:33fun here because sometimes we don't know you know sometimes we could say coincidence
- 5:38absolutely coincidence it is a thing you know,
- 5:42but uh but the fact that is how can i say as we laugh and joking you know that
- 5:47you know she had a long day on her, how can I say, profession.
- 5:53It's something where she was having a good time. One minute,
- 5:56she's doing something crazy.
- 5:58The next minute, she's like, damn, I'm tired.
- 6:01I wouldn't mind going for a drink. I wouldn't mind going for a coffee. Paquiti.
- 6:07Espresso martini. And again, that's the name of the episode,
- 6:11Manifesting Espresso Martini.
- 6:12But what I want people to kind of understand, is have you ever sometimes said
- 6:19to yourself, you want to manifest big things by all means.
- 6:23Hey, listen, we want to manifest where we have a house of 30 rooms.
- 6:29That's great. We want that. But you know what?
- 6:32As I'm walking right now in the streets here in my beautiful Puerto Rico,
- 6:37I noticed that these streets were, you know, done not too long ago.
- 6:42I could see that This right here, these streets The pavement,
- 6:46whatever it is These streets here As I'm looking at the streets They were done not too long ago.
- 6:52So in other words, in order for you to manifest, you have to pave the way,
- 6:58you have to start building that road to where you want to be at.
- 7:02Now, yes, we want to build this, let's say, house, dirty rooms.
- 7:07That's what I'm trying to manifest.
- 7:09You know, success comes in many different ways. Remember, success for somebody could be wealth.
- 7:15Success for somebody could be health. Success for somebody could be something
- 7:19other different. We have our own ways of, you know, what success is.
- 7:24Remember, they don't tell us what's in the TV. They don't tell us what it is,
- 7:28what is success. No, success, you determine that.
- 7:30But you know what? You got to start paving that wave, start building that road.
- 7:35Again, you manifest that you want to live in a house with 30 rooms.
- 7:39But what is it? Maybe something as simple as start manifesting a big house with just one room.
- 7:45You'll be like, well, David, why would I have a big house in just one room?
- 7:50You know, that's kind of a little funny, odd. Well, the whole house is the whole
- 7:54damn move. You know what I mean?
- 7:56But the whole point is that sometimes when we do these manifest things,
- 8:00and I'm paid, you can count me on that situation, is that sometimes we forget the little things.
- 8:08Remember, manifestation, it comes in different sizes, different shapes. You know what I mean?
- 8:15Different colors, different actions, different outcomes.
- 8:20Different things. And you know, I always emphasize to people.
- 8:23Now, some people, you know, are believers of the law of attraction.
- 8:27I say, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. You know what I mean?
- 8:32There's no way you could sit down in a chair and just be like,
- 8:37ah, you know, I'm here trying to add law of attraction. I'm trying to attract money.
- 8:43I'm trying to attract that. And you are sitting down. Okay, great.
- 8:47Nice. I wish the world lived, you know, I wish the universe kind of worked in
- 8:52that little kind of concept where you could just sit down, not do anything,
- 8:56and just close your eyes and say, hey, I want to manifest that right now.
- 9:01It's going to be a million dollars in my bank account. Let's close my eyes.
- 9:05Let me open it. Can I check my bank account? It's not going to work that way.
- 9:08It's going to work that I'm telling you I got to get up But sometimes We get too,
- 9:14How can I say Not riled up But sometimes We
- 9:17get too wrapped up And so that When we manifest
- 9:20Big Like the 30 rooms And we
- 9:23get one Then we get disappointed Then who Who is to
- 9:26say Right That you wasn't Manifesting just that one Big room You see what I'm
- 9:32saying That's the whole thing Over here behind That little story Of the espresso
- 9:36martini I'm pretty sure the young little sister wants to have her own business and do something crazy.
- 9:45You know what I'm saying? Like have a business of something,
- 9:47something, something, maybe a restaurant, maybe a bar, who knows?
- 9:53But just the fact that if in her path that she was building,
- 9:59in her career that she has been building,
- 10:02where she put that work to be in that situation where she says,
- 10:06wow, I'm working hard, man. I'm tired.
- 10:11What can I cure my tiredness with? You know what I mean?
- 10:15You could go to a spa. You could do this. You could do a lot.
- 10:19But the little sister said, you know what? I need a drink.
- 10:25Amen. If those people out there who have had a tough day or just productive, even if it's not tough.
- 10:34But have we not, you know, how many times, and you know, listen,
- 10:37I don't know how many times I could count, but how many times you have said,
- 10:40hey, wow, I need a drink, right? So you apply that to that.
- 10:45Then the little bit of tiredness, the little bit of thing, you know what,
- 10:48I need some coffee. Then I'll go to the bar and get a drink.
- 10:53Guess what? Why not do both, right? Why not get this expressive martini?
- 10:58Because you need it, because you manifest it.
- 11:01Guess where you're going to get that at? Exactly my point. Exactly my point.
- 11:07You see, in order to get there, you got to move. You got to do something.
- 11:10Regardless of how you're tired, you're going to always feel tired. Because guess what?
- 11:14For the most part, even someone who has millions of dollars,
- 11:18I don't care if you say, well, that person got millions of dollars and they
- 11:23could do anything they want.
- 11:25Listen, for the most part, that person worked hard. They worked hard for their
- 11:28money. You don't think that they're tired?
- 11:31They're probably more tired than you are. But what did they do? They work hard.
- 11:36And that's one of the things you got to work. You got to work.
- 11:39And then what's your reward?
- 11:41Hey, listen, your reward for working hard can mean, you know, so many things.
- 11:46But your reward could also be manifested by saying, you know what,
- 11:50let me start doing those little things. Let me just start getting up.
- 11:54Let me set a discipline where I'm going to get up at 4 o'clock in the morning.
- 11:59Like I'm over here on the getaway, seeing my family, a little bit of what all I'm doing.
- 12:03But guess what? I'm waking up at 5 in the morning, sometimes a little bit early.
- 12:08And I'm saying to myself in these past few weeks, I mean past few days, I'm having a good time.
- 12:15I'm going to sleep under the influence of, you know, some adult beverages,
- 12:20some good beers from the island, straight from the island.
- 12:23But you see, that's the reward.
- 12:26But you see, instead of waking up and saying, oh, man, you know, I can't.
- 12:30You see, I work the next day. I wake up the next day. That's why I'm doing this
- 12:33podcast. I'm putting in work.
- 12:36See, the reward is that I could just be tired, right? Going back to that espresso martini.
- 12:40I think I might want. I think I might need one after this one. Thank you.
- 12:45But the fact is that there's a reward for something, and the reward will get you tired.
- 12:50You know, I know people that their rewards would be that, hey, I work hard.
- 12:54Let me go on vacation. I know a couple of people went on vacation recently,
- 12:57and they came back tired. But guess what?
- 13:01You work yourself again so you could go on another vacation and treat yourself
- 13:04to do whatever it is that you want. You manifest it. You ask for it.
- 13:08You ask for it. You manifest it. You got it. I guarantee it's going to work
- 13:12in that cycle. And I want people to feel discouraged That they're,
- 13:16hey, nah, you know, I can't You know, I'm tired You know what?
- 13:21If you're a drinker, non-drinker If you're a coffee drinker If you're a non-coffee
- 13:24drinker Next time You look at a menu when you go to a restaurant.
- 13:30Even if it's not there Just tell the waiter Can I have an espresso martinis, please?
- 13:36And that's basically my podcast Because once again,
- 13:40Think about the reward Think about what you can manifest Even
- 13:43the smallest thing You always have to think Listen to your mind Listen to your
- 13:49body Listen to your soul And feed them Give them what you think that they need
- 13:56Even if it's something as small As an espresso martini Anyways,
