1. 0:00hey guys uh video lesson two here with
2. 0:04my uncle larry hey guys
3. 0:06what are we gonna talk about today so
4. 0:07today we're gonna talk about being more
5. 0:09than one-dimensional all right so
6. 0:12one of the things i've noticed in my
7. 0:14years of work with people is if i ask
8. 0:16them to tell me what they're doing um or
9. 0:19you know who are you
10. 0:20they tell me
11. 0:22what they do you know they might say
12. 0:24jack might say well i'm a traitor
13. 0:27if i talk to an athlete they say well
14. 0:29i'm a basketball player
15. 0:31or i'm a student
16. 0:32whatever that's not who you are that's
17. 0:34what you do
18. 0:36so one of the things though especially
19. 0:38in our american culture is we are so
20. 0:40defined by what we do that we can lose
21. 0:44all other sense of self and all a lot of
22. 0:47different parts of us that are really
23. 0:48important
24. 0:49so
25. 0:50jack your year last year and a half when
26. 0:54you were really you know killing it and
27. 0:56being successful
28. 0:57would you say that was really your total
29. 0:59focus
30. 1:00yeah i'd say so that was definitely my
31. 1:02total focus and i noticed that like
32. 1:04you're saying i was very one-dimensional
33. 1:07and there's there's a time and place for
34. 1:08it and now as
35. 1:10the market has changed
36. 1:12and some things have happened in my life
37. 1:15personally now i have to realize that i
38. 1:19need to become more dimensional and have
39. 1:22different sides and different aspects of
40. 1:24me because the one-dimensional lifestyle
41. 1:26is definitely no way to live
42. 1:28so what were some of the things that
43. 1:29were happening to you negatively doing
44. 1:31that one-dimensional lifestyle
45. 1:33i would say that the biggest thing was
46. 1:35my health was really taking a plummet
47. 1:38and you know the famous saying health is
48. 1:40wealth and health is definitely the most
49. 1:42important pillar in your life before
50. 1:45money and before
51. 1:47family and before friends and before
52. 1:49pretty much everything is your own
53. 1:50health
54. 1:51so for me personally i started getting
55. 1:53really sick
56. 1:55it was actually about a year ago last
57. 1:57december
58. 1:59and
59. 2:00i actually remember it pretty crystal
60. 2:02clear it was december 1st and it
61. 2:04actually was
62. 2:06the day i got mono
63. 2:08and it was also my first six figure day
64. 2:11um so as you can see i was really really
65. 2:14getting really really sick and
66. 2:16my throat was in really bad condition
67. 2:18but i kept trading and i didn't take
68. 2:20care of myself
69. 2:21so that recovery of mono can be up to
70. 2:24six months of some serious fatigue
71. 2:27and i would say for the next three
72. 2:29months i was only trading all day every
73. 2:31day was not exercising not eating well
74. 2:33nothing so that sickness really
75. 2:36affected me for a good six months and
76. 2:38about halfway through it i also um got
77. 2:41covered
78. 2:42and then moving into the summer i really
79. 2:45had to realize like what i put myself
80. 2:47through and i was um very um
81. 2:49one-dimensional and something that my
82. 2:51parents were uh saying a lot to me was
83. 2:54like you're gonna get sick and you're
84. 2:55gonna burn out because you're just
85. 2:57going way too crazy and i did
86. 3:00so now i had to realize like
87. 3:02okay i pushed myself really hard and it
88. 3:05was
89. 3:06worth it because i
90. 3:08achieved what i wanted to do of course
91. 3:10but just then it's very key to make sure
92. 3:13you have to change and you have to
93. 3:14change your habits because if you keep
94. 3:16doing that you're really going to run
95. 3:18yourself into the ground to an
96. 3:19unrecoverable um standpoint yeah you
97. 3:23know it's interesting you said that
98. 3:24because you know you did achieve the
99. 3:26goals you wanted i know some of the the
100. 3:29people who are seeing this video are
101. 3:30saying well i'm still not there yet and
102. 3:31i get that um but it is important to
103. 3:35kind of try to keep balance from the
104. 3:36get-go so you don't end up with motto or
105. 3:40you know ending up really kind of run
106. 3:41down
107. 3:43[Music]
108. 3:44obviously it's got to be different for
109. 3:45each person but you have to kind of be
110. 3:47aware of it
111. 3:48down the road i'm going to give you guys
112. 3:50some tips on how to be more diverse how
113. 3:52to kind of tap into you know seeing
114. 3:54yourself multi-dimensional instead of
115. 3:56just you know i'm a trader or what have
116. 3:59you um the fact that you know you've
117. 4:02been able to kind of
118. 4:03step back at this point um a little bit
119. 4:06you know focus more on your relationship
120. 4:08which is important to you the um your
121. 4:11health you know

167. 5:51new
168. 5:52uh ei
169. 5:54uh emotional intelligence yeah yeah
170. 5:58i always thought it was eq well you know
171. 6:00good thing you mentioned eq is uh is
172. 6:02another term but i think that one might
173. 6:04be uh copyrighted so
174. 6:06ei is uh is
175. 6:08you know one that everybody can use
176. 6:10cool
177. 6:11so yeah i've been uh
178. 6:13helping my family out i've been with my
179. 6:15mom here for a couple weeks i've been
180. 6:17seeing a lot more friends
181. 6:19so just working on
182. 6:21multiple areas of of life and making
183. 6:24sure i see myself as
184. 6:26a boyfriend see myself as a family man
185. 6:29see myself as a trader see myself as
186. 6:32someone who stays active and stays
187. 6:34healthy and being this four-dimensional
188. 6:37um
189. 6:38person who
190. 6:39has more than one thing and who is is
191. 6:42happy in life because he's not so
192. 6:43focused on one thing and letting one
193. 6:45thing control his life where you have
194. 6:47you have other things to uh bounce off
195. 6:49of whereas
196. 6:51okay if training's not good one day then
197. 6:53i will go and spend time with my
198. 6:55girlfriend and you know everything you
199. 6:57know vanishes from the trading whereas
200. 6:59if you're just trading you have a bad
201. 7:00day you have nothing to bounce it off of
202. 7:03um
203. 7:03or if i'm
204. 7:06with family and friends and having a
205. 7:08good dinner staying active just
206. 7:10that's really the key to happiness is
207. 7:13having multiple pillars of advancements
208. 7:16right you know it's interesting because
209. 7:17when jack was first studying to learn
210. 7:20how to become a traitor um
211. 7:22you know he would share a little bit
212. 7:23with me and he was passionate about it
213. 7:26he
214. 7:27loved doing what he was doing and that
215. 7:29is one of the key things to to
216. 7:32being happy so in america we focus so
217. 7:35much on money that a lot of people will
218. 7:37do things that they're not really
219. 7:38passionate about but make some money
220. 7:40you're not going to be happy you know i
221. 7:42am not a trader i will probably never be
222. 7:45a traitor because i'm really passionate
223. 7:46about human psychology and being a
224. 7:49therapist i love it i'm never going to
225. 7:50make the money that he does or you know
226. 7:52the potential you guys have
227. 7:54but i enjoy it more and so it's really
228. 7:57key to do what makes you happy and so
229. 8:01jack you know he would tell me how
230. 8:02excited he'd get you could see in his
231. 8:04face we'd be talking about the new
232. 8:06things he was learning and so now it's
233. 8:08not a matter of saying you know training
234. 8:10is not important it's now saying okay
235. 8:13now i just got to kind of remember the
236. 8:14other things that are important too and
237. 8:16that's what we want you guys to do is
238. 8:18just have
239. 8:20a full life not a one-dimensional life
240. 8:23love it yeah
