  Speaker 1: The goal in twenty twelve was to create a network
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: the power of choice, just like we once had the
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: power of choice when it came to terrestrial radio. If
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: I'm in the mood for classic rock, I went to
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: classic rock. If I wanted country, I'd go to country.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: Your podcast listening should be the same thing. But don't
• 0:14
  Speaker 1: have people jumping all over these different platforms. Get them
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: to your platform. Create your own network. That's what aro
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: dot net is all about. A r r oe dot net.
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: You want your rockstars, we got them authors y A. However,
• 0:30
  Speaker 1: you want to break down your authors, we got them
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: arro dot net A r r oe dot net. Enjoy
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: your exploration, Hey, Saro.
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: And this is vocal dfrag. Vocal dfragging is taking the
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: time to physically ask yourself the questions and then question
• 0:46
  Speaker 2: the answers. That's probably one of the biggest challenges that
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: we have in our everyday world because we depend so
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: much on other people creating the answers for us, or
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: we'll go to some sort of motivational book because we
• 0:58
  Speaker 2: think they've got the answer to everything. But in reality,
• 1:01
  Speaker 2: the one thing that I've learned in being a student
• 1:03
  Speaker 2: of Julia Cameron from the artist way since nineteen ninety four.
• 1:06
  Speaker 2: I mean, all these years later, and I still I
• 1:09
  Speaker 2: give her credit for where we are in this present
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: place of my creativity and the path of everything that
• 1:14
  Speaker 2: we're going to do growing forward. But the fact of
• 1:17
  Speaker 2: the matter is is that she still didn't make me.
• 1:20
  Speaker 2: And do you understand what I'm saying is is that
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: I had to ask the questions then question the answers.
• 1:26
  Speaker 2: I didn't go to a Julia Cameron to say I
• 1:29
  Speaker 2: need to know the walk and the way. And that's
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: what we do in our everyday world. We'll turn to
• 1:34
  Speaker 2: a doctor for our different nutritional decisions, or we'll turn
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: to this person because they went through hell, they might
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: have been a hooker, they've become now a multi millionaire.
• 1:44
  Speaker 2: Do you think they have your answers? They can suggest
• 1:47
  Speaker 2: something for you, they can give you a plan and
• 1:49
  Speaker 2: a purpose, but ultimately it's going to be you that's
• 1:51
  Speaker 2: going to put your stinky ass feet in that pair
• 1:53
  Speaker 2: of shoes. And if you don't feel like doing some
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: hiking today and going over mountains that everybody else has
• 1:58
  Speaker 2: kind of walked away from, then you problem. So how
• 2:00
  Speaker 2: does anything like that even begin? See, nobody ever talks
• 2:03
  Speaker 2: about this. You've got to ask yourself the questions and
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: question the answers, which is a very difficult thing to do,
• 2:12
  Speaker 2: especially in a world. I've been married for thirty two years.
• 2:14
  Speaker 2: I always believe my wife has the answer. She doesn't
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: always have the answers, and it freaks me out when
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: I go, but, but, but, but but you should know this,
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: well I don't know this. So you're gonna have to
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: put on the hiking shoes and get around that gigantic
• 2:28
  Speaker 2: rock that's in the middle of air flow. This is
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: ah vocal defrag boy. It takes the air right out
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: of you, doesn't it. As we stand here inside this
• 2:37
  Speaker 2: beautiful forest in South Charlotte, North Carolina. And the thing
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: about it is, though, is that we may have the
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: sunshine and a nice spring breeze with the floral arrangements
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: in everybody's yards, and you know, just just looking at
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: the trees themselves, everything looks so amazingly in place. But
• 2:55
  Speaker 2: you know that's not it. That's really not the true
• 2:59
  Speaker 2: story when it comes to this, because I believe that
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: Mother Nature its biggest lesson in life is how it's
• 3:06
  Speaker 2: trained us to dot our te's and cross our eyes,
• 3:12
  Speaker 2: not as in eyes in your head, but eyes in
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: a sentence, dotting our te's and crossing our eyes. Of
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: course I've got it wrong. And the reason why I've
• 3:22
  Speaker 2: got it wrong is because you've been trained your entire
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: life by other people's vocal behaviors to believe that you're
• 3:28
  Speaker 2: supposed to dot your eye and cross your t's if
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: you want to think that you're on the correct path.
• 3:34
  Speaker 2: When I believe by walking through this force on a
• 3:37
  Speaker 2: daily basis, by going through my daily journals of thirty
• 3:40
  Speaker 2: two years, by walking through the storms, that we are
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: in all reality, we are crossing our eyes and dotting
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: our te's. How do you get beyond something like this
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: by becoming aware of it? And trust me, Johnny down
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: the streets, or Sindy at work, or even somebody somewhere
• 4:01
  Speaker 2: in a far far place on social media, They're not
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: going to give you that reason to dot your tea
• 4:09
  Speaker 2: and cross your eye. You're gonna have to go into
• 4:11
  Speaker 2: that mess all by yourself and figure the stuff out.
• 4:14
  Speaker 2: But that's so much work. I don't want to put
• 4:17
  Speaker 2: myself through a lot of stress and anxiety. Oh, you're
• 4:19
  Speaker 2: already going through it, so I don't know why you're
• 4:21
  Speaker 2: lying to yourself about that. You know you've got so
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: many questions on your heart, and you think you've got
• 4:26
  Speaker 2: an answer. A little band aid action going on there
• 4:29
  Speaker 2: is pretty cool. But the problem is, though, is that
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: you can put any band aid on any ouch, and
• 4:35
  Speaker 2: that ouch now becomes a scar, and every day of
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: your life you're going to look at that scar and
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: be reminded of your faults in life. See you dotted
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: the T and you crossed the eye. You may have
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: made it through that process of change and challenge, but
• 4:56
  Speaker 2: the perseverance is going to check you in right now
• 4:59
  Speaker 2: and ask you the real question. If you've got an
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: addiction to creativity, alcohol, drugs, food, whatever your addiction might be,
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: it might be the better reason to figure out how
• 5:10
  Speaker 2: you're going to dot that T and cross that eye.
• 5:13
  Speaker 2: And it still sounds so incredibly odd to say something
• 5:16
  Speaker 2: like that, and yet your life is incredibly odd. I
• 5:21
  Speaker 2: don't care how much money you've got in your bank,
• 5:24
  Speaker 2: what your car looks like, how many smartphones you have,
• 5:27
  Speaker 2: or if you're doing regular Wi Fi or if you've
• 5:29
  Speaker 2: got the new fangled fiber Wi Fi. I don't care.
• 5:33
  Speaker 2: It's not you. What's in you is what counts, And
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: that's what vocal d fragging is all about. What is
• 5:41
  Speaker 2: in you? Why don't you openly talk about it with yourself?
• 5:44
  Speaker 2: You could do a daily vocal dfrag like we're doing.
• 5:48
  Speaker 2: You could write it down and the reason why I
• 5:50
  Speaker 2: do the vocal d fragging, pitch, volume, and tone are everything,
• 5:54
  Speaker 2: whereas writing, which I've been doing since July of nineteen
• 5:57
  Speaker 2: ninety four, so I'm a little bit of an expert
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: on it. So what happens is though when you go
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: back it is nothing more than the interpretation of your
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: now reading what was written. Then that's basically just dotting
• 6:13
  Speaker 2: your eye and crossing your te. But in fact, the
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: focus today is dotting your t and crossing your eye.
• 6:21
  Speaker 2: Don't cross your eyes in front of me, because you're
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: gonna send out a body language signal that's gonna make
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: me go. Really that's how you feel, then do it yourself.
• 6:33
  Speaker 2: Maybe I'll see you on a different day. Ask yourself
• 6:36
  Speaker 2: the questions, question the answers. This stuff really works. It's
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: called bookle deep reading.
