I’m off to another Rarity event.
That's what it's called these personal development seminars focusing on relationships, wealth
and everything in between.
I woke up early this morning on a Saturday, sacrificing my sleep to learn something new
and to keep growing.
This morning has got me thinking about sacrifice.
I'd say that might be the theme of today's episode, “sacrifice”.
I was up very late last night, and up early this morning.
One of my few mornings, probably like you to get some rest.
Even though I had to wake up early and had a late last night, I still wanted to be able
to go to this event today.
It gets me thinking of why do people end up sacrificing or causing themselves to be uncomfortable
for something else?
In my case, the reason why I wanted to put myself in that uncomfortable position is because
there's something that deep down inside I really want.
That is to grow as a person, to always be doing better, challenging myself and push
myself.
I'd say this is no different from meeting and attracting women.
You have to put yourself through some difficult times to be able to go after and get what
you want.
You do have to go and get a lot of objections from girls, and run the risk of embarrassment.
You have to put yourself in a very uncomfortable situation many times, to be able to go and
get what you want.
I know that what you crave in your life is dating, probably a beautiful woman.
I don't blame you.
A lot of guys want that, but a lot of guys don't sacrifice.
They don't take the work that's needed to be able to go and get that.
Anything that you're going to want out of life, it's going to be hard and tough.
I say that from a guy who has experienced, 32 years on this earth and I can tell you
anything that I've ever wanted that was worth anything was hard work, a lot of work.
Today, I ask you, what are you sacrificing?
What is it that you are putting aside to be able to get what it is that you desire?
Right now with Chris Wise and he had some interesting things to say about sacrifice.
When I hear the word sacrifice, it doesn't feel good to me.
It's like, I have to give up something that I love.
It's almost like I'm being mean to myself so that I can get something greater.
As I've been working on my diet, I have chosen not to eat certain foods.
It has felt, but it has come from a place of, I'm doing and choosing this out of being
kind and loving towards myself.
When I have chosen not to go to McDonald's or eat pizza, or eat all these things that
I love, it's done from a place.
I know that if I do those things, it's not getting me to where I want to go.
In those moments, where it's hard, because there's been a transition period several years
where I would emotionally eat at night, or certain circumstances would trigger emotional
eating as opposed to like, okay, I'm not going to do it.
I'm going to make it happen.
I'm going to sacrifice something and give it up.
That's one energy and I feel like that's a very old masculine paradigm, being so hard
on yourself in sacrificing and driving forward and like extreme discipline.
Now the place at which, I am now in the best shape I've ever been in my life is done from
a place of, I feel this, I want this food so bad.
I'm going to surrender right now into this moment.
I'm going to feel all that there is to feel.
I'm going to feel that creating and that desire as I allow that surrender to take place.
When I've done this in the moments where that craving has come up, what's happened is that
desire, drive and craving disappears.
My relationship with sacrifice is over.
I don't feel like I sacrifice things in life anymore.
I feel like as you, as one, so deeply begins to embrace and being love, kind towards yourself,
you will find that you can create your life from a completely new place where sacrifice
is no longer necessary.
What is left is a place of surrender.
We can surrender into life and love, and out of that place, take action and create the
life of your dreams.
I'm in a Lyft right now.
I'm in one of those Lyft rides where you share the ride somewhere and what's hilarious is
that I'm about to pick up this guy named James, who I met yesterday at the rarity event.
We'll see what happens when he comes in.
He's gonna be like, what are you doing here?
Let's see his reaction.
Hey buddy. What's going on? How are you?
Where are you headed? I'm headed to the Farmer's Market.
I saw your picture on the app and I'm like "That's James."
I was telling him how I met Chris and that money game that we played.
That completely threw me for a loop. He had his mind blown apparently.
Hi, what's up? All right, text me. Bye.
Where was I?
I was at this event yesterday and it was all about wealth and how to look at money in a
different way.That's really cool.
It was interesting to have a different perspective on money.
One of the big questions that they asked was, what does money mean to you?
What does it represent to you?
There was answers they're talking about.
Money represents freedom, being able to do what you want to do, and being able to show
value in the world.
If you want something, you're going to give money because it's an exchange of value.
I want to stick more with the topic of sacrifice.
I interviewed a guy who puts on the event and he had his perspective on sacrifice.
Earlier, when I was driving there, I had my perspective on sacrifice.
There's definitely a lot of different meanings behind what that is.
How I think it relates to you in terms of your journey to meeting and attracting women
you want, and taking it further?
I think sacrifice is something to be looked at in terms of working hard, doing some things
that you might not necessarily think you'd be doing to be able to get the results that
you want.
One thing that I preach on this channel is the idea of going out and talking to a lot
of strangers, people and girls.
I think that is one of the best ways to expose yourself to the fears that you might have
with approaching girls and also get you better at the skill of communicating, socializing,
and being able to attract girls.
I think sacrifice is related to that sense because you're sacrificing your time.
You're sacrificing the notion of what it might look for normal people to do the normal dating
process, which might be apps or online dating or meeting someone through a friend or family.
I'm asking you to take a new perspective, a mind shift and maybe sacrifice some of those
old beliefs and mindsets to get you to the next level.
That next level is you being able to go up and purposefully attract the type of woman
that you want.
I believe in order to do that, it's going to take the sacrifice and you going out there
and putting the work in.
I want to help you with this.
If you look in the description below, I offer a free video.
It's a little mini course on conversation.
It's called Chick Crack.
That is a video that is going to be teaching you all the different conversation topics
that women love to talk about.
That's going to help you be able to go up and start and continue conversations with
the women that you meet.
Go ahead, get that in the description below.
I want you to check that out.
I want you to think again this week about the notion, idea and the concept of sacrifice.
Not only sacrificing things in your life, but sacrificing old mindsets.
Let's see what that takes you.
For me, sacrifice for bettering my life.
I had to sacrifice bad things that were bringing me down in life like hard drugs, for sure
that was one and alcohol.
From then on, my life has gotten way better.
You sacrifice drugs and alcohol for a better way of life, living happiness and getting
along with other people and moving forward.
Still have more things to sacrifice in my life.
I’ve been so lazy, but I know for me it was the drugs and alcohol.
It bettered my life, sacrifice that keep my will to God.
My life keeps getting better from eight years off hard drugs and being drunk off alcohol,
so I've come a long ways.
