  1. 0:00So, we're sitting out here right on
  2. 0:01Hollywood Boulevard, the famous,
  3. 0:03infamous Hollywood. And you can imagine
  4. 0:05the kind of parties and clubbing that go
  5. 0:08on out here in Hollywood. I mean, it's
  6. 0:09crazy. People have a very short
  7. 0:11attention span. They often are very
  8. 0:13value-seeking. They're just looking for
  9. 0:15that next little chunk of value. And
  10. 0:17often times it feels like they have an
  11. 0:18attention span of an ant. Well, why do
  12. 0:21they have the attention span of an ant?
  13. 0:22Because they have so many options.
  14. 0:25Because they themselves are very high
  15. 0:27value and there's a lot of people coming
  16. 0:29at them who want to be involved with
  17. 0:31them in the environment like Hollywood
  18. 0:33or maybe Manhattan or South Beach,
  19. 0:35anywhere that's very posh. Maybe you've
  20. 0:37been to the South of France. You know
  21. 0:39what I'm getting at here. And it's funny
  22. 0:41because I grew up being lightly
  23. 0:43autistic, having no ability to read
  24. 0:44social cues. And as a way to kind of
  25. 0:47improve myself, I HAD JUST ENOUGH SOCIAL
  26. 0:49awareness that I actually moved myself
  27. 0:52right out to Hollywood, the most
  28. 0:53difficult environment possible, so that
  29. 0:55I could sharpen the saw, so that I could
  30. 0:57get very very skilled and put myself in
  31. 1:00the toughest environment possible. Now,
  32. 1:02over the years I tried so many different
  33. 1:04things to improve my social skills. It
  34. 1:05was my life's work. And one of the first
  35. 1:08things I tried was just coming up with
  36. 1:10wacky things to say. I thought, maybe
  37. 1:11that will hold attention if I just knew
  38. 1:13something really wacky to say. That's
  39. 1:15going to hold people's attention. And I
  40. 1:17mean, if you think about it, just
  41. 1:18imagine someone who's a huge nerd saying
  42. 1:20something kind of wacky. They can hold
  43. 1:22attention for a hot minute, but as soon
  44. 1:23as the thing that they say runs out,
  45. 1:25that's it. So, the next level that I
  46. 1:28went to was building my confidence. And
  47. 1:30I spent years and years really looking
  48. 1:32at myself, my beliefs, getting more
  49. 1:34present to the moment, releasing trauma,
  50. 1:36and many other things. And what I found
  51. 1:38is that this made me more naturally
  52. 1:40charismatic. That being said, even that
  53. 1:43has a limit if you don't have those hard
  54. 1:45skills of actually having charisma. In
  55. 1:47fact, I've had many people who I've
  56. 1:49taught in real life who have incredible
  57. 1:51confidence. They're very at peace with
  58. 1:52themselves, but I bring them out to
  59. 1:53anywhere where there's a lot of
  60. 1:54competing stimulus and they can't hold
  61. 1:56attention to save their lives. You could
  62. 1:58have I hate to say to sound crazier, but
  63. 2:00you could have a gun to their head, and
  64. 2:02they couldn't go out and hold attention
  65. 2:03to save their lives. Now, conversely,
  66. 2:05what if you're somebody who is really
  67. 2:06good at holding attention? Well, you
  68. 2:08could probably hold it a lot more. I
  69. 2:11think about it constantly. When I look
  70. 2:13AT GUYS TAKING OUR BEAUTIFUL RESEARCH
  71. 2:17and refusing to use it, and then here's
  72. 2:20where it gets You want to know where it
  73. 2:21gets crazier? I got to keep talking
  74. 2:22about this. You want to know where it
  75. 2:23gets crazier? Okay. Okay. Then, they
  76. 2:26come and they need 9 million techniques
  77. 2:30to combat their crappy voice.
  78. 2:34Because when your voice isn't good, you
  79. 2:37need 9 million freaking gimmicks to hold
  80. 2:41somebody's attention.
  81. 2:43And this is so bad. And the thing is, I
  82. 2:46talk about this in video after video
  83. 2:50after video, and no one listens. I'm
  84. 2:52like Winston Churchill before World War
  85. 2:54II. Guys, the Germans, THE GUY WITH THE
  86. 2:57MUSTACHE, this guy is going to be a
  87. 2:59problem. And they're like, "No. No
  88. 3:02problem. It'll be chill, bro."
  89. 3:06No.
  90. 3:08It's going to be a problem. Okay? And
  91. 3:10that's what you guys are doing. You're
  92. 3:12just leaving this huge problem here. And
  93. 3:15that's why every time I bring people on
  94. 3:17stage,
  95. 3:19I say, "Use your voice."
  96. 3:21And they're And they they think they're
  97. 3:22screaming.
  98. 3:24And then,
  99. 3:25they make no sound, and the audience
  100. 3:26tells them, "I can't hear you." And
  101. 3:28they're shocked, and they don't believe
  102. 3:30it. And I literally and and I can bring
  103. 3:33up FOUR OR FIVE GUYS IN A ROW TO DO IT.
  104. 3:35AND THEN, ALL Y'ALL WILL BE LAUGHING AT
  105. 3:37THEM, ARROGANT, thinking that you're any
  106. 3:40different, and you're not. You've been
  107. 3:42out. You've had it where people don't
  108. 3:43pay attention to you. You've seen the
  109. 3:44consequences of it. You've seen somebody
  110. 3:46you really want to meet, and you just
  111. 3:47can't make their acquaintance. You know
  112. 3:49the problems associated to that. You
  113. 3:51know how it's probably cost you
  114. 3:52promotions. You know how if you run a
  115. 3:54business it's made it where you can't be
  116. 3:55an ambassador for your brand or be an
  117. 3:57effective I mean look.
  118. 3:58My business we've grown this
  119. 3:59specifically for decades just from
  120. 4:01organic traffic. Only recently have we
  121. 4:03even been in a position to be able to do
  122. 4:05paid traffic. Now you may not know this
  123. 4:07every seminars company that you see or
  124. 4:09at least the vast majority are using
  125. 4:11millions a year if they're big in paid
  126. 4:13traffic. We couldn't do that until
  127. 4:15recently. We were the one seminar
  128. 4:16company that I'm aware of personally at
  129. 4:18least that I'm personally aware of that
  130. 4:20built our movement just off organic
  131. 4:23videos that we put out and literally
  132. 4:25just using raw charisma. The same skills
  133. 4:27that we sharpened out here in Hollywood
  134. 4:29we used to build an eight-figure a year
  135. 4:30business and a global movement. I'd like
  136. 4:33to show that to you. Why can't you build
  137. 4:35a global movement or get a better
  138. 4:36promotion or meet new people or be that
  139. 4:39person that everybody's excited to meet.
  140. 4:40I want to show you how to use your
  141. 4:42social energy and exactly how to do
  142. 4:44that. So look my good friend Jeff him
  143. 4:47and I have been working on a new
  144. 4:48program. It's called charisma mastery.
  145. 4:51And basically this is something that has
  146. 4:53been a brainchild that we've been
  147. 4:55working on for many years and we have
  148. 4:57been slaving away at this because we had
  149. 4:59a frustration point where we thought
  150. 5:00look we tell people you got to be more
  151. 5:02charismatic and they'd get frustrated. I
  152. 5:05mean I mean imagine that imagine you're
  153. 5:06working with me directly and saying use
  154. 5:07your charisma and you're SAYING HOW? HOW
  155. 5:10DO I DO IT? WHAT IS THE EXACT WAY THAT I
  156. 5:13WOULD LEARN THIS?
  157. 5:14TELL ME AND I'M saying be more
  158. 5:16confident. Maybe try saying something
  159. 5:18and you're saying it's just not that
  160. 5:20natural energy. Look I get it and we
  161. 5:22felt that. So we decided to address this
  162. 5:25and give you something that is
  163. 5:26step-by-step where you can go through a
  164. 5:28process and force yourself to learn
  165. 5:30this. We're going to take you by the
  166. 5:31hand walk you past the smoking wreckage
  167. 5:34of nonsense like things like this just
  168. 5:35crap. We're just going to walk we're
  169. 5:37just going to walk you past the crap
  170. 5:40that we have had to push away for you
  171. 5:42and take you directly from point A which
  172. 5:45is not being able to hold social
  173. 5:46attention to your maximum extent, no
  174. 5:47matter what level you're at, to point B,
  175. 5:49where you really get this and you are
  176. 5:51just a wizard with it. We want you to
  177. 5:53have mastery over this. And for that
  178. 5:55reason, that's why we call this program
  179. 5:57Charisma Mastery. Even with competing
  180. 6:00stimulus, we want to show you how to be
  181. 6:03able to hold attention and have it where
  182. 6:04people not only want to get your
  183. 6:06attention in real life when they're
  184. 6:07meeting you, but want to follow up and
  185. 6:09get to know you better even after you've
  186. 6:11met. So, what we're going to do right
  187. 6:12now in this video is we're going to show
  188. 6:14you exactly how it is that we like to
  189. 6:17help people build out their charisma.
  190. 6:18And this is going to be really, really
  191. 6:21intense the way that we do this, okay?
  192. 6:22Because we're going to take through a
  193. 6:23group of people
  194. 6:25in this process and you're going to see
  195. 6:27them actually making a change. Now, I
  196. 6:29want you to click the link below and
  197. 6:31sign up for Charisma Mastery because
  198. 6:33this is something that we have teamed up
  199. 6:34on to take it to the next level for your
  200. 6:37life.
  201. 6:51Jeff is always working on something
  202. 6:53really, really deep. He's always got
  203. 6:54some deep project. Sometimes he's, you
  204. 6:56know, writing a book for 2 years.
  205. 6:58Sometimes working on some kind of
  206. 6:59program for 2 years. Like, you know,
  207. 7:00whatever it is, right? So, his recent
  208. 7:02one that he spent a couple years working
  209. 7:03on now around the clock. I barely see
  210. 7:04this guy anymore. He's just working on
  211. 7:06it all the time. He's sending me
  212. 7:07outlines. He's sending me drafts. He's
  213. 7:08been in the lab working on this.
  214. 7:10Remember Dr. Dre, The Chronic? You
  215. 7:11remember that? Right? He's in the up in
  216. 7:13the lab, the ped ped in the pad and
  217. 7:15trying to get the damn label off.
  218. 7:16Remember that? That's kind of Jeff right
  219. 7:17now. So, Jeff has been basically getting
  220. 7:19this off the ground and getting it like
  221. 7:21just going through everything, really
  222. 7:22creating something of quality and
  223. 7:24something that's life-changing. And he's
  224. 7:26gone really, really deep on this. I
  225. 7:28believe that Jeff has the most in-depth
  226. 7:31understanding of charisma in the world,
  227. 7:33okay? In the world. He's been teaching
  228. 7:35live events. Our team in general, 265
  229. 7:38cities, 75 countries around on world.
  230. 7:40Hundreds of thousands of peop- of people
  231. 7:42face to face and millions online. Jeff,
  232. 7:45we've been rocking this literally he's
  233. 7:46been doing this since 2003.
  234. 7:49So, you seen an event like this? 17
  235. 7:50years.
  236. 7:51Okay, 17 years as of now. Whatever
  237. 7:53you're watching this in the future,
  238. 7:54since 2003. Can you imagine how much
  239. 7:57background experience he has with this?
  240. 7:59Is there anyone in here who's like 17 or
  241. 8:0018? 19. Oh, cool. I could be your dad.
  242. 8:04Yeah. If you don't know your dad, I
  243. 8:06might be him. Yeah.
  244. 8:08Jeff might even be my dad.
  245. 8:10So,
  246. 8:12Time travel. Yeah. So, but you see you
  247. 8:14see the idea, right? There's So, what
  248. 8:16we're going to show you, there's a lot
  249. 8:17of information you'd find online. What
  250. 8:19we're going to be showing you here is
  251. 8:20something in-depth, something powerful,
  252. 8:23something tested, something
  253. 8:24life-changing, something that can help
  254. 8:26you get your goals in health, wealth,
  255. 8:28relationship, higher purpose. This to me
  256. 8:30is one of the major keys, okay? So,
  257. 8:32basically what we're going to do we're
  258. 8:32going to start breaking this down, give
  259. 8:34you some knowledge, and then we're going
  260. 8:35to go also into examples where we'll
  261. 8:37bring people up and we'll do some
  262. 8:38transformation work. Does that sound
  263. 8:39good? Yeah. Okay.
  264. 8:41One thing that I've seen time and time
  265. 8:43and time and time again
  266. 8:46is these people that come on these
  267. 8:47programs.
  268. 8:49They've engaged with these this material
  269. 8:50for many years. They can recite the
  270. 8:52theory like the back of their hand. They
  271. 8:54know it very well. However, when it
  272. 8:56comes time to actually execute, they
  273. 8:57have an inability to inability to do so.
  274. 9:00And why is that?
  275. 9:02Why do you think that is?
  276. 9:04Fear.
  277. 9:08There's a lot of different things that
  278. 9:10are happening, but essentially
  279. 9:11something's blocking them. There are a
  280. 9:12variety of internal blocks. So, what I
  281. 9:14wanted to do, I wanted to investigate
  282. 9:16this so-called human energy system
  283. 9:20to down to the the molecular level and
  284. 9:21see what are all of the different
  285. 9:22components. How do they interrelate as a
  286. 9:25holistic whole communicative system? How
  287. 9:27can you fix identify and fix weaknesses
  288. 9:30in each area,
  289. 9:32isolate those weaknesses, exercise them,
  290. 9:35reintegrate them into a more completely
  291. 9:36realized whole. So, it's interesting
  292. 9:39because like you said, I've been in like
  293. 9:42a pit for the past
  294. 9:448 months where all I'm doing like
  295. 9:46literally before I came here I I spent
  296. 9:4813 hours editing. I've been editing
  297. 9:51these videos very close to completion,
  298. 9:53but I've been editing videos for like 16
  299. 9:54hours a day for the past 2 weeks. I like
  300. 9:57maybe going outside once in a while to
  301. 9:59feel the air on my face, but it's coming
  302. 10:01very close to completion. So, last
  303. 10:03weekend I was up in Vancouver.
  304. 10:06And I had two students that it seemed as
  305. 10:10though God
  306. 10:11had put these gentlemen in front of me
  307. 10:14to tell you to tell me, "You're on the
  308. 10:16right track, buddy.
  309. 10:18This is why you're doing this."
  310. 10:21I I heard this I heard this I heard this
  311. 10:23I got the what I got the updates of this
  312. 10:24all weekend over WhatsApp. So Keep
  313. 10:26going, buddy.
  314. 10:27Cuz these guys need this. So, what we're
  315. 10:29talking about one of these Let's give
  316. 10:32you an example. One of the guys
  317. 10:34you know, a very nice guy, great value
  318. 10:37right? Seemed like a like a nice person,
  319. 10:39had a good job, etc. etc. He goes to
  320. 10:42talk to these people.
  321. 10:44He's completely deadpan.
  322. 10:46He has what we call sad face.
  323. 10:47Okay?
  324. 10:48It's an acronym.
  325. 10:50Serious
  326. 10:51anxious deadpan. Like very serious.
  327. 10:56This interaction I'm having is serious
  328. 10:58business. Right? Anxious. I hope it
  329. 11:01works. I hope it works. And then
  330. 11:03deadpan. Because what you don't show
  331. 11:05can't hurt you. All right? Furthermore
  332. 11:07his entire his entire kinesthetic mode
  333. 11:10as we call it
  334. 11:12completely shut down. Body language
  335. 11:14completely shut down.
  336. 11:16Racked with tension. Obvious tension all
  337. 11:18through his shoulders and body.
  338. 11:20Wouldn't take his hands out of his
  339. 11:21pockets.
  340. 11:23Movements are stiff.
  341. 11:25Mannerisms are stiff.
  342. 11:27Shuffling, jerky, shut down. The voice
  343. 11:32monotone
  344. 11:34inexpressive. So, how is one thing to
  345. 11:37understand, you might be this great guy,
  346. 11:41but people don't know a damn thing about
  347. 11:43you until you bring it to them. So, if
  348. 11:45you don't have the ability to actually
  349. 11:48create a compelling vibe when you're
  350. 11:51communicating with people, you are done.
  351. 11:53You are absolutely done. It's not even
  352. 11:55going to get off the ground. So, one
  353. 11:57thing, you know, as you as you were
  354. 11:58saying earlier, most people
  355. 12:00and a lot of people in this room most
  356. 12:01likely are coming from some sort of
  357. 12:04background where maybe your your
  358. 12:05profession is very logical. Maybe you're
  359. 12:07an engineer. You know, it's a Bay Area.
  360. 12:09Everyone eventually goes to tech or you
  361. 12:11move out, right? So,
  362. 12:13You got to go on the streets or you go
  363. 12:14on tech.
  364. 12:16You start shooting on the streets or you
  365. 12:19move to Denver or something, right? So,
  366. 12:22So,
  367. 12:24you know, a lot of times, you know, in
  368. 12:25your day-to-day life,
  369. 12:27the communication that you engage in in
  370. 12:29your profession is most like it's
  371. 12:30concise, right? You need to convey
  372. 12:32information in a short in a short time
  373. 12:34frame that makes sense. It's logical. In
  374. 12:37a situation where you're meeting people
  375. 12:38socially,
  376. 12:40this is not the case. So, what I've come
  377. 12:42to understand in more recent times is
  378. 12:45essentially
  379. 12:47the words
  380. 12:49and words have meanings, okay? And that
  381. 12:50that's important to an extent. You
  382. 12:52should kind of make sense to an extent
  383. 12:54in whatever language you're speaking,
  384. 12:57but the word the verbals are essentially
  385. 12:59the words salad that give them the
  386. 13:01ostensible reason to stay there and keep
  387. 13:04talking to you. So, what you're trying
  388. 13:05to do, you're trying to balance two
  389. 13:06things. You're trying to balance number
  390. 13:08one, what you might call a vertical
  391. 13:10lyric expansion or a vertical vibe
  392. 13:12development, which is essentially an
  393. 13:15emotional feeling generated by what?
  394. 13:18Generated by your external projective
  395. 13:20communications. Now, with all human
  396. 13:22communication is based on what?
  397. 13:26Our senses. We have five senses. What
  398. 13:28are your five senses? Smell, taste,
  399. 13:30touch, hearing, sight. We don't use the
  400. 13:33first two to communicate. All right, I'm
  401. 13:35not like, "Taste me, bro." Okay? Like
  402. 13:38that's that's not how we communicate.
  403. 13:39And hopefully you're not using smell,
  404. 13:41okay?
  405. 13:43You know, do a breath check, okay? So,
  406. 13:45but hopefully you you know, you're not
  407. 13:47using those two in normal circumstances.
  408. 13:48So, that leaves us with the last three,
  409. 13:50which are sight, sound, and touch. And
  410. 13:53the corresponding projective modes are
  411. 13:55what?
  412. 13:56Vocals, the noises that are being
  413. 13:58generated out of your mouth, and the
  414. 14:00corresponding verbal meanings associated
  415. 14:01with them.
  416. 14:02The
  417. 14:03specific emotional messages that are
  418. 14:06being sent with the eye focus process
  419. 14:09and the musculature of the face.
  420. 14:11And then your movement through space,
  421. 14:13gesture, and touch. So, again, we have
  422. 14:15the kinesthetic mode, we have the vocal
  423. 14:17mode, and then we have the facial
  424. 14:19emotional complex. So, all human
  425. 14:21communication is based on some
  426. 14:23combination of these three modes
  427. 14:25expressing themselves. These modes can
  428. 14:27be congruent with each other, they can
  429. 14:28be incongruent. There's a lot of
  430. 14:31interesting interplay between all of
  431. 14:33these modes. And so, we want to develop
  432. 14:36with this whole charisma training, with
  433. 14:38with these guys who are very shut down,
  434. 14:40I'm not trying to train them on
  435. 14:42behavioral choice. I'm trying to train
  436. 14:44them in behavioral capacity.
  437. 14:47Do you understand?
  438. 14:48Range. Exactly. So, in exercise, you
  439. 14:51practice what you can't do. In
  440. 14:53performance or actual interaction, you
  441. 14:56allow what you can, if that makes sense.
  442. 14:59So, that's the idea with a lot of these
  443. 15:00ex- So, I developed an exercise process
  444. 15:03that would actually allow people to
  445. 15:05engage with this stuff on a daily basis
  446. 15:07and expand their gestural vocabulary.
  447. 15:09For those of you who are not that
  448. 15:10familiar with this, we do this kind of
  449. 15:11work all the time. And we bring up
  450. 15:13different people and we can see
  451. 15:14different blockages, we can see what
  452. 15:16they're dealing with. It's a lot like a
  453. 15:17chiropractor can see things like
  454. 15:18posture, or somebody who does
  455. 15:20weightlifting can see the strength that
  456. 15:21somebody has. You can see this in their
  457. 15:24systems, the kind of charisma that you
  458. 15:25have. And some people will have a lot of
  459. 15:27it, although it may not be well
  460. 15:28controlled. Other people will have not
  461. 15:30very much of it, but what they do have
  462. 15:31is well controlled. There's a big range
  463. 15:32of it. So, we'll probably Do you want to
  464. 15:33maybe bring up maybe choose a couple
  465. 15:35different people that you can even
  466. 15:37just show some different examples and
  467. 15:38kind of you can you can hear it in
  468. 15:40vocal, you can see it in body language
  469. 15:41and demeanor, in ways they carry
  470. 15:43themselves. We'll see it and we'll see
  471. 15:44it in a few of you. So, we can just make
  472. 15:45it a little bit more practical so you
  473. 15:46can see kind of what we're talking about
  474. 15:47here. And then by the way, as you're
  475. 15:49looking at the different people up here,
  476. 15:50ask yourself a question such as could
  477. 15:52they get a promotion at work?
  478. 15:54How likely would they be to get a
  479. 15:55promotion at work? Let's say this person
  480. 15:57works really hard, would they be able
  481. 15:59Let's say they run a business, would
  482. 16:00they be a good ambassador for their
  483. 16:02business? Could they Could they present
  484. 16:04what they're doing in their business in
  485. 16:06a way where people would want to be
  486. 16:07recruited and be a part of it? Could
  487. 16:09they recruit people to their vision?
  488. 16:11Could they have an amazing dating life?
  489. 16:13Could they make friends easily? Could
  490. 16:15they get invited to cool parties? Could
  491. 16:17they get invited into better networking
  492. 16:18groups? And just ask yourself those
  493. 16:19questions as you see people coming up,
  494. 16:21which is pretty harsh.
  495. 16:23Little harsh, right? But ask yourself
  496. 16:24those questions as you see, and then
  497. 16:26Jeff will start breaking down why that
  498. 16:28is and what we can change to improve
  499. 16:29those results. So, when people want to
  500. 16:32express an emotion, there's this what we
  501. 16:34call often this justification by
  502. 16:36tension. Okay? So, I go to a lot of
  503. 16:39karaoke, for example, and I'm able to
  504. 16:40witness a lot of awful singing. Uh some
  505. 16:42of it by my friends, some of it by
  506. 16:44myself. And I have a There's a friend of
  507. 16:46mine
  508. 16:47who makes who who has a tendency to make
  509. 16:49these
  510. 16:50screwed up faces when he sings, right?
  511. 16:53Like he'll he always say What is that
  512. 16:54song he sings? Like
  513. 16:56Wham, wake me up. He's like He's like
  514. 16:58Wake me up before you go-go. I'm not a
  515. 17:02fan of those songs.
  516. 17:04Right? And I'm like, why is he making
  517. 17:06these faces?
  518. 17:08And he's like, well, I want it to be
  519. 17:09emotional.
  520. 17:11I want it to be emotional. So, he feels
  521. 17:13that he needs to call into play
  522. 17:14kinesthetic and facial tension in order
  523. 17:17to justify this increased expenditure of
  524. 17:19vocal energy. But in reality, and this
  525. 17:21is a huge like overriding overarching
  526. 17:24theme of this entire program, tension is
  527. 17:26the enemy. Like some singing teachers
  528. 17:28will teach you to like grip the floor
  529. 17:30with your feet or, you know, squeeze up.
  530. 17:33And in fact, when you're out interacting
  531. 17:35and meeting people like in a bar or
  532. 17:37club, whatever,
  533. 17:38a lot of times people you'll start to
  534. 17:40you'll just have this
  535. 17:42generalized
  536. 17:43tension.
  537. 17:45In order to sort of, again, justify this
  538. 17:47increased expenditure of emotional
  539. 17:49energy that you're going to do when you
  540. 17:50start to interact with people. And the
  541. 17:52feeling, it's like you're wearing this
  542. 17:53kind of corset, right? You're wearing
  543. 17:56this sort of like tight body suit that
  544. 17:58constricts you, right? To get ready to
  545. 18:00do something. But in reality, all it's
  546. 18:03doing is burning your energy. It's
  547. 18:05wasting your energy. So, again, no held
  548. 18:07tension can be justified.
  549. 18:09Right? That's one of the biggest things.
  550. 18:11So, I don't know Now, first of all,
  551. 18:12let's let's have a look here. I want to
  552. 18:14um
  553. 18:15I want you to uh here, step back a
  554. 18:17little bit. And as you as you speak,
  555. 18:21I want you to wave your arms like this.
  556. 18:22So, do it again, say hi do the whole
  557. 18:23introductory thing.
  558. 18:25Hi everybody. My name is Kevin.
  559. 18:27Uh I live in Dublin Dublin. I'm 23 years
  560. 18:30old Yeah. and I work at a software
  561. 18:32company. So, again, I feel I feel a lot
  562. 18:34of held tension in his shoulders here.
  563. 18:37And the the thing is, again, you're
  564. 18:38probably unaware that you're even doing
  565. 18:40this. Because over time, these tensions
  566. 18:43become so ingrained that they become
  567. 18:44subthreshold. You're unaware of them.
  568. 18:46Anyone know what Rolfing is?
  569. 18:48In here, show of hands. Who can explain
  570. 18:50what that is briefly?
  571. 18:52Rolfing or Rolfing? Essentially
  572. 18:54No, that's that's Rolfing.
  573. 18:56It's different. Ida Rolf created a
  574. 18:58massage
  575. 19:02What's that? So, it's essentially an
  576. 19:03extreme massage technique that lasts
  577. 19:05maybe, I don't know, was it 10 or 12
  578. 19:07weeks?
  579. 19:0710 series. It's a series of It's a
  580. 19:09series of 10 extreme massage techniques
  581. 19:12where they're deep they're doing deep
  582. 19:13tissue manipulation in an effort to
  583. 19:16remove these early emotional traumas
  584. 19:19that become ingrained and become
  585. 19:21sub-threshold over time.
  586. 19:23Uh
  587. 19:24R O L F
  588. 19:26Right? Now again, I'm no expert in this
  589. 19:28stuff. I know very little about it, but
  590. 19:30I've heard that people who engage with
  591. 19:31this often times when those tensions are
  592. 19:33released repressed memories of like
  593. 19:35early traumas will come up. Right? So
  594. 19:38again, I'm not suggesting that you've
  595. 19:39got these early traumas, you were
  596. 19:40touched by an uncle or anything like
  597. 19:41that, but um you know, again just daily
  598. 19:44life. It could just be like anytime you
  599. 19:47like it could be school, it could be the
  600. 19:48media, it could be religious upbringing,
  601. 19:51it could be corporate culture, a variety
  602. 19:52of things come into play that create
  603. 19:54these so-called negative social
  604. 19:56conditionings. So, first thing to do
  605. 19:59is just to actually
  606. 20:01just do a just do a a physical like a a
  607. 20:03conscious tension check. Okay? And I
  608. 20:05want you to release
  609. 20:07any held tension that you feel you might
  610. 20:08have. Okay? Just do a body check like a
  611. 20:10body scan right now. Just from head
  612. 20:12feeling in your face,
  613. 20:13feeling in the throat, the shoulders,
  614. 20:17the abdominals, the quads, the even the
  615. 20:20ankles. Okay? And I want you to kind of
  616. 20:23rock back and forth. Get very loose.
  617. 20:24Make sure your jaw's loose, too.
  618. 20:27Breathe a couple times.
  619. 20:30Okay? Now try it again to go back go to
  620. 20:32the back.
  621. 20:37Okay. He's still holding. What what
  622. 20:39level do you think he's at there on a
  623. 20:40scale of 1 to 10? Two. Two. He's
  624. 20:42probably about a two or a four. Now one
  625. 20:44thing that could be interesting
  626. 20:47let's all do it together, okay?
  627. 20:49Ready?
  628. 20:51And do it again do IT WITH US.
  629. 20:55OKAY? NOW JUST DO
  630. 21:01OKAY? AGAIN.
  631. 21:07OKAY. NOW WHAT WE'RE GOING TO DO, WE'RE
  632. 21:09ALL GOING TO DO IT together again except
  633. 21:10when I go like this, everyone else drop
  634. 21:12out but you and keep doing it. Okay,
  635. 21:14ready?
  636. 21:19Okay, let's do it again and drop out
  637. 21:20quicker so we can hear him. Ready?
  638. 21:24Now, you keep going.
  639. 21:25Okay? Let's do IT AGAIN. READY?
  640. 21:30SEE, HE WAS ACTUALLY BETTER THERE. DO
  641. 21:31YOU HEAR THAT? IT WAS MORE CLEAR. It's
  642. 21:32less of a pinched tone. So, now what I
  643. 21:36like you to do, I mean again, we're just
  644. 21:38talking about sheer projection here.
  645. 21:40Right? This is just sheer projection.
  646. 21:42But again, facial expressions we're
  647. 21:45going to start with the face here. And
  648. 21:47the reason we're going to start with the
  649. 21:48face is because the face is the only
  650. 21:49mode that can communicate specific
  651. 21:51messages without the help of the other
  652. 21:54two.
  653. 21:55Right? Again, when you're speaking, the
  654. 21:58face is always coming into play just due
  655. 21:59to the close proximity of it to the
  656. 22:01whole apparatus.
  657. 22:03Physical gestures have no innate meaning
  658. 22:06until they are given meaning by the
  659. 22:08addition of either the vocal quality or
  660. 22:11the the facial expressions. Does that
  661. 22:12make sense? There is no meaning inherent
  662. 22:15meaning to a to a gesture. And again,
  663. 22:18one thing that I like to do to
  664. 22:19demonstrate that, if I go like this,
  665. 22:22Okay, so tell me uh
  666. 22:24what emotion am I expressing here when I
  667. 22:26when I do this hand gesture?
  668. 22:29Anger. Anger. [ __ ] off. Fury.
  669. 22:35Right? So, you think it's anger,
  670. 22:37but when it's like, "No, it's like he's
  671. 22:38cheering."
  672. 22:40You don't know. So again, a fist through
  673. 22:41the air
  674. 22:43has a powerful energy to it, but you
  675. 22:45don't know if it's a about to hit
  676. 22:47someone or if it's cheering for the
  677. 22:49sports team until until again, it's
  678. 22:51given context by the facial messages and
  679. 22:53then possibly the vocal tone and then
  680. 22:54the context of the situation. Same
  681. 22:56thing, you know, if you see it like a
  682. 22:57somebody crouched around the corner
  683. 22:59ready to jump out, you don't know if
  684. 23:02he's going to surprise his wife,
  685. 23:04"Surprise, honey." Or if he's going to,
  686. 23:05you know, kill his enemy.
  687. 23:08It It tell it's again given context by
  688. 23:10what he says, his facial expression, and
  689. 23:12again the context of the situation. So,
  690. 23:14with with the face,
  691. 23:16the first thing that we're going to do,
  692. 23:18and we're all going to do this, all
  693. 23:19right? Cuz remember, it it as we get
  694. 23:21into this, we're not we're not do going
  695. 23:23to do this stuff in practice when you're
  696. 23:25actually interacting with people. We're
  697. 23:27merely attempting to expand our
  698. 23:30vocabulary here. So, the first thing
  699. 23:31that we're going to do, it's very
  700. 23:32simple, it's called a facial flex. And
  701. 23:34this is something for people who are
  702. 23:35shut down facially that you can do every
  703. 23:37morning, we call it face brushing. Much
  704. 23:39in the same way you'd brush your teeth,
  705. 23:41you'd brush your face. And you're going
  706. 23:43to do this every single day in or just
  707. 23:45in order to expand the vocabulary of
  708. 23:47emotional messages that you can send
  709. 23:49with the face. So, the first thing that
  710. 23:51we're going to do is we're going to
  711. 23:53Let's Let's just go through the facial
  712. 23:54flex right now, okay? So, the first
  713. 23:56thing we're going to do, all open.
  714. 23:59Okay? All closed.
  715. 24:03And by the way,
  716. 24:05one thing to watch as you do these,
  717. 24:07look for entanglements that come into
  718. 24:09play. Like, you see when I did this?
  719. 24:11My shoulders tensed up as well. There's
  720. 24:12no need for that. So, again,
  721. 24:16breathe, make com- completely loose.
  722. 24:18We're just exercising the musculature of
  723. 24:20the face surrounding the eyes. That's
  724. 24:21it. And the eyelids. So, again, full
  725. 24:24open.
  726. 24:26Full closed.
  727. 24:29Okay?
  728. 24:31Top open, bottom closed.
  729. 24:35Top closed, bottom open.
  730. 24:39Okay? Um all to the left.
  731. 24:45All to the right.
  732. 24:49Okay? Top Top right. Top left, bottom
  733. 24:52right.
  734. 24:57Top right, bottom left.
  735. 25:04All down.
  736. 25:07All up.
  737. 25:09Top up, bottom down.
  738. 25:14Top down, bottom up.
  739. 25:18Okay? So, now
  740. 25:22So, now what we're going to do
  741. 25:24Now
  742. 25:25Now, we're going to just do a facial
  743. 25:26flex. And for again, for 20 to 30
  744. 25:29seconds, we're simply going to make as
  745. 25:31just move the muscles in as many
  746. 25:34conceivable ways as you you possibly
  747. 25:35can. Okay, ready?
  748. 25:37Set. Go.
  749. 25:56And again, pay attention to any like
  750. 25:58entanglements that are coming to play
  751. 25:59here, okay?
  752. 26:00Stop. Now,
  753. 26:02let's take a moment. Now, great. That
  754. 26:03was Again, give yourself praise for the
  755. 26:05energy that you gave there,
  756. 26:07okay?
  757. 26:08Because
  758. 26:10it's very important as you're doing all
  759. 26:12of these exercises that you as corny as
  760. 26:14it sounds praise that energy. Because
  761. 26:16again, when you're exercising, it has to
  762. 26:18be a space that is completely free of
  763. 26:21judgmental inhibition, right? Ag- Again,
  764. 26:24there's no wrong answers in this
  765. 26:26exercise space. That's what allows you
  766. 26:28to bring it like remember what we said,
  767. 26:30you're not doing this in practice when
  768. 26:31you're meeting people. It's like in in
  769. 26:33exercise, practice what you can't do in
  770. 26:35process or in in
  771. 26:37uh performance, allow what you can.
  772. 26:39Okay? So,
  773. 26:41as you do it,
  774. 26:43notice any entanglements that came into
  775. 26:45play. For me, I I'll stop breathing.
  776. 26:47That's the one thing I always do. I'll
  777. 26:49stop breathing.
  778. 26:51Right? So, now what we want to do, we're
  779. 26:54going to do an extra I want to do an
  780. 26:56extreme facial mask. Okay? Now, what
  781. 26:59what is the extreme facial mask?
  782. 27:01Basically,
  783. 27:02you're going to make a ridiculous facial
  784. 27:04mask
  785. 27:05and you're going to hold it for 15
  786. 27:07seconds with zero tension in the body.
  787. 27:10Okay? So, as you So, first let's do it
  788. 27:13for 10 seconds. Just make some
  789. 27:14ridiculous extreme mask.
  790. 27:24Okay, now stop. Now, again, think what
  791. 27:26entanglements came into play. Did the
  792. 27:28shoulders tense up?
  793. 27:30Did the quads tense up?
  794. 27:32Was there Was there Did the breathing
  795. 27:33stop?
  796. 27:35Okay? So, let's make the same one again,
  797. 27:37but this time focusing on releasing
  798. 27:38those entanglements, okay? So,
  799. 27:43like ideally, as you make this,
  800. 27:46you can walk around, you can do the
  801. 27:48dishes,
  802. 27:52you can drive the car, you can uh
  803. 27:53perform a dance move.
  804. 27:59Okay? Release.
  805. 28:01So,
  806. 28:12So,
  807. 28:15Okay, so what we're going to do now,
  808. 28:17we're going to start to add in some
  809. 28:19arbitrary emotional attitudes to these
  810. 28:22weird masks. Okay? So, why are we doing
  811. 28:25this? What is an What is an attitude?
  812. 28:27Basically, so I've got a a list of
  813. 28:29random attitude cards here,
  814. 28:32which we're going to explore. So, you
  815. 28:33have sharp,
  816. 28:35mocking,
  817. 28:36apologetic,
  818. 28:38dull, etc. So, an attitude, any one of
  819. 28:42these words, it's a message to the
  820. 28:44intellect. It's a message to the
  821. 28:45projective modes and the intuitive mind
  822. 28:47of the projective modes to perform and
  823. 28:50express.
  824. 28:52So, what we're going to do right now,
  825. 28:53we're going to make an extreme mask and
  826. 28:55then as I add these in, you're going to
  827. 28:58express these while holding the extreme
  828. 29:01mask.
  829. 29:02Okay, as bizarre as that sounds. All
  830. 29:04right? So, first
  831. 29:06again, keep tensions free. Let's draw a
  832. 29:07mask. Ready?
  833. 29:12And now while holding that same mask,
  834. 29:14make it angry somehow.
  835. 29:21Okay? Now switch. Now make it
  836. 29:24disappointed.
  837. 29:29And again, you might feel the
  838. 29:30kinesthetic come into play.
  839. 29:32Right?
  840. 29:33Now make it playful.
  841. 29:38And the focus process might come into
  842. 29:39play as well.
  843. 29:42Now make it bored.
  844. 29:48Okay? Now drop them all. Now what I want
  845. 29:51to do next and we're I'm going to
  846. 29:52burning through these very very quickly.
  847. 29:54Normally, we do a lot more um
  848. 29:57we do a lot more uh work with these, but
  849. 30:00again, we have limited time scope here.
  850. 30:01But what I want you to do now, we're
  851. 30:03just going to work with these in
  852. 30:06in isolation. Okay? And what we're going
  853. 30:09to do, we're going to start to expand
  854. 30:11them
  855. 30:12to greater and greater levels. Okay? So,
  856. 30:15the first one I want you to do
  857. 30:18I want you to do ashamed.
  858. 30:21What does that look like? Okay, I want
  859. 30:23you to do
  860. 30:25terrified.
  861. 30:28Okay?
  862. 30:29And then I want you to do
  863. 30:31pathetic.
  864. 30:35Okay?
  865. 30:37Okay. So, now
  866. 30:39what I want you to do, I want you to
  867. 30:40hold that
  868. 30:42at maybe Okay, hold terrified. You're
  869. 30:44terrified.
  870. 30:45Okay? You're not scared. You're [ __ ]
  871. 30:47terrified. Okay? What are you again?
  872. 30:49Ashamed. Ashamed? Pathetic. Okay, so
  873. 30:52take those Now, it looks like right now
  874. 30:54you guys got these about at about a
  875. 30:55three.
  876. 30:57I want you to take them to a five.
  877. 31:04Okay, now a seven.
  878. 31:09Now a one.
  879. 31:12Now a seven.
  880. 31:16Now a 14.
  881. 31:21Now, do you believe he's terrified? No.
  882. 31:24Like I Like I'm talking like a guy with
  883. 31:26a chainsaw is about to cut his balls
  884. 31:28off.
  885. 31:29Like that's terrified. This So, you're
  886. 31:31looking like this. He's like
  887. 31:35That's more That's more like My golly,
  888. 31:37I'm surprised the new Star Wars movie
  889. 31:40sucks. Like that
  890. 31:42Haven't seen it, can't speak to it,
  891. 31:44don't really know.
  892. 31:46Okay? So, again, I want you to go even
  893. 31:48like ridiculous. Okay? Terrified, take
  894. 31:51it at a five.
  895. 31:52Pathetic, take it at a five.
  896. 31:55Ashamed, take it at a five.
  897. 31:57Okay?
  898. 31:58Now, take this to a nine.
  899. 32:01Terr- All three of you.
  900. 32:06Okay, now back to a one.
  901. 32:08So, you can get a rebound effect down to
  902. 32:09a one.
  903. 32:11Now a 10.
  904. 32:14He looks amused.
  905. 32:16All right. He looks He looks basically
  906. 32:17amused. So, okay, let's see you do You
  907. 32:19guys do terrified.
  908. 32:24So, terrified, it's going to be like
  909. 32:25eyebrows up,
  910. 32:27apart,
  911. 32:29eyes wide open, mouth open, lips drawn
  912. 32:32horizontally back. Right? Again, so
  913. 32:36it's interesting that you're incapable
  914. 32:38of doing that.
  915. 32:41No, it's it's actually quite
  916. 32:43interesting. So, what's what's
  917. 32:45suppressing this? He doesn't even know
  918. 32:47he's doing it. Much of the same way that
  919. 32:49when you were shouting earlier, you're
  920. 32:51thinking that's the you're literally
  921. 32:52believing that's the loudest you can go.
  922. 32:55Right? You're literally believing that's
  923. 32:56the loudest you can go.
  924. 32:58Now, in fact,
  925. 33:00let's do another little little exercise
  926. 33:02here. In fact, let's try let's try the
  927. 33:04projection exercise again. Okay? So,
  928. 33:07let's go let's I want you to say to the
  929. 33:08back, be like, "What's up, guys? How's
  930. 33:11it going?"
  931. 33:13What's up, guys? How's it going? Like
  932. 33:15that you I really like that. You know
  933. 33:16what? IN FACT,
  934. 33:19YOU KNOW WHAT'S YOU KNOW WHAT'S UM YOU
  935. 33:21KNOW what I think is allowing him to do
  936. 33:22that? There's a couple things. Number
  937. 33:24one, everything seems very loose. Like
  938. 33:26your your entire posture seems very
  939. 33:28loose, very upright. Um I'm not seeing a
  940. 33:31lot of held tension here.
  941. 33:32And
  942. 33:34again, it's very resonant. Have you ever
  943. 33:36Have you ever done singing before? Uh
  944. 33:38I've tried singing. You've tried it.
  945. 33:39He's tried it. He's played Let's do it
  946. 33:40again. "Hey, guys. How's it going?" Hey,
  947. 33:43guys. How's it going? Okay.
  948. 33:45Second. Hey, guys. How's it going?
  949. 33:48Pretty good. Pretty resonant.
  950. 33:50Hey, guys. How's it going? So, again,
  951. 33:52can you can you hear the the distinction
  952. 33:54there? When it gets to him, he's got a
  953. 33:57lot of held tension there.
  954. 33:59It's a lot of held tension. So, one
  955. 34:01thing I want you to think about doing is
  956. 34:03first off, it sounds like number one,
  957. 34:05you're you're pushing air.
  958. 34:07Okay? You're kind of pushing air. So,
  959. 34:10look, that's the conventional wisdom,
  960. 34:12right? Push from the diaphragm. What's
  961. 34:13the problem with that? You're pushing a
  962. 34:15lot of air through this this whole
  963. 34:17apparatus. Basically, yeah, it will
  964. 34:20if you push enough, it'll make a loud
  965. 34:22sound.
  966. 34:23But, it won't sound clear or clean.
  967. 34:27It'll sound kind of
  968. 34:29just kind of vague like hollow and
  969. 34:31unattractive, and it won't project very
  970. 34:33far. Or, if you are projecting it very
  971. 34:35far, what's going to happen?
  972. 34:37Voice going to get shot. It It damage It
  973. 34:38will damage. So, what What I've learned
  974. 34:41is basically
  975. 34:43And again, I used to lose my voice all
  976. 34:45the time after these events. You know,
  977. 34:46especially after a a full complement of
  978. 34:49the events of the week between the the
  979. 34:50boot camp, etc. etc. So, one thing I
  980. 34:52learned was yes, you need to have a
  981. 34:55carefully
  982. 34:57controlled fountain of air that's
  983. 34:59maintaining a precise relationship to
  984. 35:02the need put upon it by again, the
  985. 35:04demands of what whatever you're trying
  986. 35:06to do. But, again,
  987. 35:09I I don't want to just be willy-nilly
  988. 35:10pushing air. I want to generate the
  989. 35:12power
  990. 35:13more from the constriction
  991. 35:16of this sort of sock around the
  992. 35:19epiglottis. All right, it's called the
  993. 35:21aryepiglottic
  994. 35:22sphincter, okay? LOL badum-chish. Right?
  995. 35:25Um but but basically, it Think about it
  996. 35:27like this. If you have a hose,
  997. 35:29you turn the water on,
  998. 35:31it just comes out. But, if you pinch the
  999. 35:33hose,
  1000. 35:35now it becomes a more concentrated
  1001. 35:37stream cuz you have pressure. So, two
  1002. 35:39things I want you to do here cuz I I
  1003. 35:41want to I want to work through this this
  1004. 35:42vocal thing here. First off,
  1005. 35:45think about pinching the muscle around
  1006. 35:47the voice box. Okay, you're going to
  1007. 35:49squeeze it, and it's going to be it's
  1008. 35:50going to be a stream that goes to the
  1009. 35:52back like a laser-like beam that goes
  1010. 35:54directly to the back of the room. You're
  1011. 35:56not talking to these guys, you're
  1012. 35:57talking to the back wall.
  1013. 35:59Okay? You're talking to the the very
  1014. 36:01You're talking to Ryan at the back,
  1015. 36:02okay? So,
  1016. 36:04that's number one. Number two, I want
  1017. 36:07you to keep the jaw loose, and I want
  1018. 36:09you to think about bouncing the sound
  1019. 36:13off the hard palate.
  1020. 36:15Okay? So, everyone feel for your hard
  1021. 36:16palate right now. Again, so put your
  1022. 36:19tongue behind your teeth.
  1023. 36:20Okay, and then slide it back.
  1024. 36:22You feel where it's like a drop up?
  1025. 36:25Whoop, it goes up. That's your hard
  1026. 36:26palate. So, pinch, bounce the sound off
  1027. 36:29that, and try to beam it back to to Ryan
  1028. 36:31there. So, again, Hey, excuse me.
  1029. 36:34I've been sick. Hey,
  1030. 36:36like, hey, how's it going, Ryan?
  1031. 36:39Boom.
  1032. 36:40Hey, how's it going, Ryan? Hey.
  1033. 36:44Hey, how's it going, Ryan?
  1034. 36:46Okay, pinch it more, okay? I want I want
  1035. 36:48it to Again, I want you to even think
  1036. 36:49about it resonating up through the head.
  1037. 36:51In fact, think about it coming
  1038. 36:54out of the forehead and out up and out
  1039. 36:57like that. So, HEY, HEY, HEY, HEY, HOW'S
  1040. 37:01HOW'S IT GOING? HOW HOW'S IT GOING?
  1041. 37:05OKAY? HEY.
  1042. 37:06HEY, how's it going, Ryan? Okay.
  1043. 37:09Hey, how's it going, Ryan?
  1044. 37:12Okay, take it louder. Hey, how's it
  1045. 37:14going, Ryan? Okay, project it back, and
  1046. 37:17I want you I want you to feel it. In
  1047. 37:18fact, bring it up here. Look at my face.
  1048. 37:21Bring it up up here to the eyes. So,
  1049. 37:23it's like, hey.
  1050. 37:25Hey.
  1051. 37:26There he is. Hey, how's it going, Ryan?
  1052. 37:28Yeah, there he is right there. Good.
  1053. 37:30That's that's And I know how And And the
  1054. 37:32thing is,
  1055. 37:35bro, I know I know how hard it is to
  1056. 37:36actually do that. That's why it's not
  1057. 37:38this huge achievement, but I you can
  1058. 37:41definitely hear it's more of a clear
  1059. 37:43tone, and it's going back. Let's try it
  1060. 37:44again one more time. Hey.
  1061. 37:46Hey.
  1062. 37:47Hey.
  1063. 37:48Hey. It's better. It's definitely It's
  1064. 37:51It was a two before, so it's probably a
  1065. 37:52five now. But again, this is a process.
  1066. 37:55It's an ongoing thing. And look, the the
  1067. 37:58most important thing is that you don't
  1068. 38:00feel guilt, you don't feel ashamed of
  1069. 38:02this stuff. You just recognize it for
  1070. 38:04what it is, cuz again, if you're like,
  1071. 38:05oh, this sucks that I'm like this,
  1072. 38:07that's just adding to the judgmental
  1073. 38:08burden, which is the problem in the
  1074. 38:10first place. Because as you're trying to
  1075. 38:12do this expenditure of emotional energy,
  1076. 38:14intellectual judgment comes into play,
  1077. 38:16and then it calls these tensions into
  1078. 38:18play as its enforcer to kind of shut it
  1079. 38:20down. Which is interesting, because, you
  1080. 38:22know, over time you begin to equate the
  1081. 38:25repression of the emotion with its
  1082. 38:28expression.
  1083. 38:29Like the moment that you want to express
  1084. 38:31the emotion, boom, it's shut down. These
  1085. 38:34These two things are the same event in
  1086. 38:36time, almost. Or, you know, eventually
  1087. 38:38that's what it becomes. So, eventually
  1088. 38:41you think that the repression of the
  1089. 38:43emotion is the expression of the emotion
  1090. 38:44itself.
  1091. 38:46And so, it it's Again, these things can
  1092. 38:48be very, very difficult to number
  1093. 38:49identify and then release, but it's part
  1094. 38:52of a process. Okay, thanks for being up
  1095. 38:53here, guys.
  1096. 38:54Come on down. Like, jump on down.
  1097. 38:57Cheers. Cheers.
  1098. 38:59Now, um By the way, as we do the
  1099. 39:01exercise in the future, we'll get them
  1100. 39:02to pass the microphone. Oh, of course.
  1101. 39:04Yeah, yeah.
  1102. 39:04to do one more where they pass around a
  1103. 39:05bit? Uh sure, but in fact, you want to
  1104. 39:07like uh like chit-chat a little bit
  1105. 39:09about what we saw there and then we'll
  1106. 39:10like we'll call some up. So, let me just
  1107. 39:12take this off cuz I'm getting like quite
  1108. 39:14warm up here.

  1127. 39:53Oh, yeah. So, do we have a mic up here?
  1128. 40:01Okay. So, what we're going to do now is
  1129. 40:04I want to um
  1130. 40:06practice a couple different things here.
  1131. 40:09And first I want to do let's let's start
  1132. 40:11with something pretty simple.
  1133. 40:13Let's start with process changes.
  1134. 40:16Okay? So, I want you to basically I want
  1135. 40:19each of you guys to tell a short
  1136. 40:2130-second story about how you arrived
  1137. 40:25here tonight.
  1138. 40:27Okay?
  1139. 40:28And basically what I want you to do I
  1140. 40:29want you to change
  1141. 40:32from Actually, I got a better idea.
  1142. 40:35Okay, I got a better idea. So,
  1143. 40:37three people raise their hands.
  1144. 40:39I'm I'm a Okay, I'm going to You, you,
  1145. 40:40and you. You three up here.
  1146. 40:42Get a word in your head, and I want you
  1147. 40:44to say them. Do you have your word in
  1148. 40:45your head?
  1149. 40:47Bike. Well, no, don't say it out loud.
  1150. 40:50Okay, so you're done. Okay, what Come up
  1151. 40:52with a word in your head a word in your
  1152. 40:53head your word in your head. You got
  1153. 40:54your words? Okay, now say it out loud.
  1154. 40:56Manifest. Banana. Preposterous. Okay, so
  1155. 40:59you're going to come up with a short
  1156. 41:00story and the beginning, middle, and end
  1157. 41:03are going to be manifest, banana, and
  1158. 41:05preposterous.
  1159. 41:10Go. Oh, and as you do this,
  1160. 41:14you're going to change process
  1161. 41:16from a You're going to start out ashamed
  1162. 41:19and you're going to end up at hopeful.
  1163. 41:23Okay.
  1164. 41:24What were the three words? Manifest.
  1165. 41:26Banana. Preposterous. Okay, manifest
  1166. 41:29banana and preposterous.
  1167. 41:31So, my friend Chris always talks about
  1168. 41:34You're ashamed. You're ashamed now.
  1169. 41:36And it's just
  1170. 41:38manifesting doesn't work like that.
  1171. 41:40Like, how can you even think that's
  1172. 41:41something that would work? Like, I don't
  1173. 41:43even want to be seen with you.
  1174. 41:45Oh my goodness. Oh, hold on. Let's add
  1175. 41:47in another one, too. Just to make it
  1176. 41:49more complicated. So,
  1177. 41:51so manifest, banana, preposterous, and
  1178. 41:52you're going to go from ashamed to
  1179. 41:53hopeful, and you're also going to go
  1180. 41:55from soft to loud. Okay, boom. Cuz we're
  1181. 41:58going to change the vocal process, too.
  1182. 42:00So, we're working again facial
  1183. 42:01expressions with the emotional attitude,
  1184. 42:03and also you can also call into play
  1185. 42:05your entire physicality. For ashamed,
  1186. 42:07you could be like ashamed versus
  1187. 42:08hopeful, and then again bring the face,
  1188. 42:10and then as you go for Again, with with
  1189. 42:13the three words, what we're exercising
  1190. 42:14is imaginative capacity to come up with
  1191. 42:17stuff on the fly. And then, also we're
  1192. 42:19we're flexing the voice from soft to
  1193. 42:21loud. Okay? So, soft to loud, ashamed to
  1194. 42:23hopeful, manifest banana, prosperity.
  1195. 42:26Wait, what was it? Preposterous.
  1196. 42:27Preposterous. Okay, go. Boom. And he
  1197. 42:30comes up to me, right? He's like, "If
  1198. 42:32you want something, you should manifest
  1199. 42:34it." And you know, I'm thinking like,
  1200. 42:39"What does that even mean? What's
  1201. 42:41How could you even tell me something
  1202. 42:43like that?" And then, he goes downstairs
  1203. 42:46to the basement, right?
  1204. 42:47He grabs a yellow banana, hands it to
  1205. 42:50me, he's like, "If you want to be
  1206. 42:51preposterous,
  1207. 42:53just take this out in front of anyone,
  1208. 42:56peel it,
  1209. 42:57make eye contact while you eat it."
  1210. 43:00That's good. All right. Go ahead. Good.
  1211. 43:04Okay. So,
  1212. 43:05So, what we're doing here, again, we're
  1213. 43:07we're learning to This is also a
  1214. 43:08coordinating coordinating skill
  1215. 43:11exercise. Cuz we're You're trying to
  1216. 43:12coordinate And this is very difficult,
  1217. 43:14by the way. Very few people that just
  1218. 43:15popped up. Normally, we would do this at
  1219. 43:17the end of like the 8-hour day, where
  1220. 43:19we've worked all of these different
  1221. 43:20things. So, kind of putting you guys on
  1222. 43:22the spot here. Sorry. But, sorry, as
  1223. 43:25they say in Canada, which is up there.
  1224. 43:26It's a great place. Um so, let's get
  1225. 43:28another three words. So, again, you You
  1226. 43:31three guys here, you, you, and you.
  1227. 43:33Word, word, word. Get them in your mind
  1228. 43:35so you're not influencing each other.
  1229. 43:36Okay? You got your word? You got your
  1230. 43:38word? You got your word?
  1231. 43:39Okay?
  1232. 43:40Which. Jaguar. Paper. Which, Jaguar,
  1233. 43:44paper. Okay? So, you're going to Your
  1234. 43:47Your story's going to start with the
  1235. 43:48word which, middle Jaguar, then paper.
  1236. 43:51You're going to go from
  1237. 43:52nonchalant
  1238. 43:54to confused.
  1239. 43:57Actually, let's go from nonchalant to
  1240. 43:59frantic.
  1241. 44:01And you're going to change process from
  1242. 44:03speaking slowly to speaking very
  1243. 44:06quickly.
  1244. 44:07Okay? Go.
  1245. 44:10So So my my friend, right? Slower.
  1246. 44:14My friend.
  1247. 44:14And more nonchalant.
  1248. 44:16My friend.
  1249. 44:19Who claims
  1250. 44:22that she's a witch, okay?
  1251. 44:24I mean, you don't meet a lot of witches
  1252. 44:25nowadays.
  1253. 44:27Occasionally, you run into a few.
  1254. 44:29Now, when you see a witch,
  1255. 44:33you say hi to them.
  1256. 44:35Right? And one day, I knocked on her
  1257. 44:36door.
  1258. 44:37I was wondering if she's home.
  1259. 44:39And I walked in,
  1260. 44:40and she's [ __ ] a jaguar.
  1261. 44:43She's in bed with a jaguar.
  1262. 44:47Oh, Jesus. Having sex with a jaguar.
  1263. 44:51And I was like,
  1264. 44:53I don't know what to do. I I I I I I
  1265. 44:55So, I whipped out a piece of paper from
  1266. 44:57my back pocket
  1267. 44:58that says,
  1268. 45:01"I wish our friendship would end today."
  1269. 45:05And I signed my name on the paper, and I
  1270. 45:07gave it to her, and she signed it. OKAY.
  1271. 45:08OKAY. GOOD.
  1272. 45:16OKAY, SO LET'S DO ANOTHER. IN FACT, I'LL
  1273. 45:18GO this time
  1274. 45:20just to see if I'm what if I could do
  1275. 45:21this. So, let's do um
  1276. 45:24Okay, so three words. You You three guys

  1285. 45:50Okay, damn, this is a lot to juggle.
  1286. 45:52Wow, this is more difficult than it than

  1289. 45:57right? Okay. Mocking to furious.
  1290. 46:01Cat toilet light.
  1291. 46:03Okay.
  1292. 46:05I was at my house the other day
  1293. 46:07and I saw this cat
  1294. 46:09and it's my cat. I don't like the cat
  1295. 46:11very much. It's a bastard. It's ugly,
  1296. 46:14stupid.
  1297. 46:16And you know,
  1298. 46:18the other day I saw the cat.
  1299. 46:20I walked in the bathroom and it was
  1300. 46:22actually drinking out of the toilet.
  1301. 46:26And I was like, what the hell is this?
  1302. 46:30WHY IS THIS CAT DRINKING OUT OF THE
  1303. 46:33TOILET?
  1304. 46:34WHY IS THIS CAT DRINKING OUT OF THE
  1305. 46:36TOILET? SO I WENT AND I GOT A LIGHT AND
  1306. 46:39I SHINED IT ON THE DAMN CAT AND I SAID,
  1307. 46:41"GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE!"
  1308. 46:44OKAY.
  1309. 46:45THAT'S
  1310. 46:50UH IT'S A LOT IT'S A LOT OF COGNITIVE

  1334. 47:42to do in terms of the verbal the verbal
  1335. 47:44progress or vocal process change, we're
  1336. 47:47going to do

  1344. 48:01high.
  1345. 48:07Okay.
  1346. 48:15The [ __ ] thing, man.
  1347. 48:17So, here in San Francisco, there's this
  1348. 48:19bar called Casanova, right?
  1349. 48:22Do I need a mic?
  1350. 48:23Ryan, can you hear me in the back?
  1351. 48:26Yeah, yeah.
  1352. 48:29And
  1353. 48:34it looks like it's a cool place.
  1354. 48:36It looks like it should be fun to go.
  1355. 48:41There's a payphone on the wall, why? Why
  1356. 48:43use the payphone?
  1357. 48:46There's a bartender.
  1358. 48:49He was cool, gave me water. Seemed like
  1359. 48:51a charismatic dude.
  1360. 48:53But then again, I don't know what a
  1361. 48:55normal bartender is supposed to be. Who
  1362. 48:56knows?
  1363. 48:59Then
  1364. 49:00something that I really started noticing
  1365. 49:03was that there was this couch next to a
  1366. 49:04fireplace, and this fireplace
  1367. 49:09it doesn't work.
  1368. 49:11At all.
  1369. 49:13Where is it supposed to end this thing?
  1370. 49:14NASCAR. Somehow you got to take this to
  1371. 49:16NASCAR.
  1372. 49:18To NASCAR.
  1373. 49:19NASCAR and peaceful. NASCAR.
  1374. 49:23I got bored at one point during the
  1375. 49:25and then
  1376. 49:26somebody I was talking to they're like,
  1377. 49:27"Hey, you like NASCAR?" And I was like,
  1378. 49:30"Not really."
  1379. 49:32ALL RIGHT.
  1380. 49:39ALL RIGHT, THANKS GUYS. THANKS FOR
  1381. 49:41HELPING. GIVE THEM A HAND. Give them a
  1382. 49:43hand.
  1383. 49:44GOD BLESS.
  1384. 49:49SO, YEAH, THAT'S ACTUALLY LIKE WHY AM I
  1385. 49:51HAVING THIS? SO, that's actually like a
  1386. 49:53very advanced
  1387. 49:55exercise from kind of the end. And we do
  1388. 49:57a lot of other different ones where
  1389. 49:59other people are coming in and trying to
  1390. 50:00interfere with you. Again, it gets very
  1391. 50:03practical. Like it starts out very
  1392. 50:06It starts out very um
  1393. 50:07functional just to expand the capacity
  1394. 50:10of the projective modes. But then again,
  1395. 50:11we're we're working all of those
  1396. 50:13different modes. We're We're working the
  1397. 50:15vocal, we're working the facial, we're
  1398. 50:16working the gestural, we're working the
  1399. 50:18intellect, we're working the emotional
  1400. 50:20process. We're opening up to intuition.
  1401. 50:22And then we're actually practicing it.
  1402. 50:25Skills that you would actually use in
  1403. 50:26interaction, right? Imaginative
  1404. 50:28capacity, stylistic capacities, changes
  1405. 50:32in process, monitoring different things
  1406. 50:34that are happening around you at the
  1407. 50:35same time
  1408. 50:37as you interact with people, moving the
  1409. 50:38plot forward, understanding how to
  1410. 50:40juggle that, how to sort of find the
  1411. 50:42plot development implicit in the vibe,
  1412. 50:45and finding the vibe implicit in the
  1413. 50:46plot development, right? Cuz a lot of
  1414. 50:48this stuff, it's Look, so much of the
  1415. 50:51social interaction stuff has us confront
  1416. 50:55a variety of so-called what appear to be
  1417. 50:57opposites,
  1418. 50:58right? There's direct versus indirect.
  1419. 51:00There's repose versus energy.
  1420. 51:03There's again, the vibe versus the plot
  1421. 51:05development. There's like aggression
  1422. 51:08versus hanging back, etc. etc. But one
  1423. 51:10thing to understand and and there's so
  1424. 51:11so many of these. But one thing to
  1425. 51:13understand
  1426. 51:14is if you have a spectrum
  1427. 51:17of apparent opposites, the greatest
  1428. 51:19vitality at any point along that
  1429. 51:22spectrum is through kind of the
  1430. 51:23synthesis of the two ends,
  1431. 51:26right? So, a big part of all this is
  1432. 51:28starting to get away from so-called
  1433. 51:29black and white thinking and and this
  1434. 51:30emphasis on dualism.
  1435. 51:32And really starting to see
  1436. 51:35the the the nuanced gray areas that are
  1437. 51:38involved in this. Cuz look, some people,
  1438. 51:40like let's say for example, the old, you
  1439. 51:42know, direct indirect question,
  1440. 51:44right? Some people seem to navigate this
  1441. 51:48issue with a minimum of intellectual
  1442. 51:50effort, with a minimum of any effort
  1443. 51:52whatsoever. They seem to know exactly
  1444. 51:54when to move things forward. They seem
  1445. 51:56to know exactly when to be a bit more
  1446. 51:58aloof and chilled back. And sometimes
  1447. 52:00that can change from moment to moment to
  1448. 52:02moment to moment. So, again, it's
  1449. 52:04starting to open yourself up to this
  1450. 52:05idea of just again, fields of choice
  1451. 52:08potential at any moment the right choice
  1452. 52:10can be at any point along that. And and
  1453. 52:12just kind of starting to understand your
  1454. 52:14own capacities and be able to bring
  1455. 52:18those to bear
  1456. 52:19on whatever demands of whatever
  1457. 52:22particular social interaction that
  1458. 52:23you're engaged with. Whether it's again,
  1459. 52:24it's negotiation, sales, meeting
  1460. 52:27someone,
  1461. 52:29you know, navigating some sort of
  1462. 52:32hostility with your neighbor or
  1463. 52:34something. Again,
  1464. 52:36understanding and like first of all,
  1465. 52:39releasing these tensions and then
  1466. 52:40developing these skills,
  1467. 52:43it'll enhance pretty much every social
  1468. 52:45interaction you'll ever have. Yeah, I
  1469. 52:46can see that. One of the most
  1470. 52:48frustrating things is that as we
  1471. 52:50progressed,
  1472. 52:51and I know Jeff has felt this too,
  1473. 52:53people will come to us
  1474. 52:54and they'll say, "Oh, I'm not an
  1475. 52:55extrovert like you."
  1476. 52:57Or I'm not a public speaker like you. Or
  1477. 53:00I don't have charisma like you. And
  1478. 53:02people who I work with or people who I
  1479. 53:04interact with will say things like this.
  1480. 53:06And it to me that's like if I walk into
  1481. 53:08if I bring you to my house and the room
  1482. 53:10is messy,
  1483. 53:11and then you walk in and I say, "Oh,
  1484. 53:13well, I'm not one of those clean room
  1485. 53:15people like you." You know, right? If I
  1486. 53:17have a bunch of cavities in my teeth and
  1487. 53:19I say, "Oh, I'm not one of those
  1488. 53:21non-cavity people like you." Or I'm not
  1489. 53:24one of those rich people like you. It'd
  1490. 53:27be like I have a kind of pop belly right
  1491. 53:28now. Imagine if I'm like, "Oh, I'm not
  1492. 53:29one of those people with abs like you."
  1493. 53:32And it there's it's it's funny because
  1494. 53:35earlier in our careers with this, people
  1495. 53:37could really see the gap that we were
  1496. 53:39kind of learning it ourselves, but now
  1497. 53:41that we're both in our 40s, we've got to
  1498. 53:42internalize the point that now people
  1499. 53:44think that it's just something we always
  1500. 53:45had. They don't get it that this was
  1501. 53:48something that was worked on, which in
  1502. 53:49some ways is a compliment, right? So,
  1503. 53:51for me and Jeff, that's the biggest
  1504. 53:52compliment that we can get is that they
  1505. 53:54think it's something that we're born
  1506. 53:55with. But, in reality, it's also
  1507. 53:57completely delusional. This is a process
  1508. 54:00that you can learn. And for us, it
  1509. 54:02became a priority because we understood
  1510. 54:04that our quality of life was going to be
  1511. 54:05a lot lower if we didn't have this down.
  1512. 54:08We understood that life was very bad
  1513. 54:10when you're just working, working,
  1514. 54:11working all the time, and it's just
  1515. 54:13constantly treading water, but not
  1516. 54:15understanding how to come across. And
  1517. 54:17the big thing to understand, like we
  1518. 54:18said, is that in life, there's a reason
  1519. 54:20why people will pay a ton for a Rolex
  1520. 54:23watch that really you could argue it's
  1521. 54:25no better than Timex.
  1522. 54:27I mean, functionally speaking, if you're
  1523. 54:29stuck in the middle of nowhere, what
  1524. 54:31would you rather have? You're stuck out
  1525. 54:32there for 6 months.
  1526. 54:33The Indiglo Timex,
  1527. 54:35where it has like a chronometer in it
  1528. 54:37and a timer and all that kind of stuff,
  1529. 54:38or do you want the Rolex that could you
  1530. 54:40know, that probably could break, has all
  1531. 54:41these expensive components in it? I
  1532. 54:43mean, maybe if you could melt it down
  1533. 54:44and make a spear with it, I don't know.
  1534. 54:46But, generally speaking, people will pay
  1535. 54:49$30,000 for the exact same thing because
  1536. 54:51it's associated to status. So, like we
  1537. 54:54said, the major thing that you can use
  1538. 54:56to create leverage when you're learning
  1539. 54:58is your personality. That's something
  1540. 55:01where you can have nothing going for you
  1541. 55:03at all, and you can start spitting
  1542. 55:05results. And then what you want to do is
  1543. 55:07you want to leverage this and not just
  1544. 55:08use it as something to have a bit of
  1545. 55:11personality and that that's it, but you
  1546. 55:13want to leverage it for things. So, you
  1547. 55:14want to start asking yourself right now,
  1548. 55:16what can I use to leverage this for? You
  1549. 55:19know, in a city like San Francisco or
  1550. 55:21Los Angeles, New York, Miami, Vegas, you
  1551. 55:24can use it to leverage yourself into the
  1552. 55:25best parties, best networking events,
  1553. 55:27best dating opportunities, getting into
  1554. 55:29better jobs, and so on and so forth. In
  1555. 55:31smaller towns, there'll be all sorts of
  1556. 55:32other applications as well. Maybe you're
  1557. 55:34using it for pragmatic things. If you're
  1558. 55:36from a really small town, maybe you you
  1559. 55:37know, you use it to negotiate a better
  1560. 55:39tractor or something like that, right?
  1561. 55:40Just depends what it is that you're
  1562. 55:41doing. But either way, you want to have
  1563. 55:43this down. I'd ask you to really take a
  1564. 55:45pause and think about every situation in
  1565. 55:47your life right now where you're not
  1566. 55:49projecting yourself properly. Think
  1567. 55:51about every single situation in your
  1568. 55:52life right now where you're not
  1569. 55:53connecting or you're being ignored.
  1570. 55:56People aren't paying attention to you.
  1571. 55:57People aren't taking you seriously.
  1572. 55:58People don't value your presence. People
  1573. 56:01are not feeling an urgency for you to be
  1574. 56:02around. When you're coming to the group
  1575. 56:04of friends that you have, are they
  1576. 56:05saying, "Oh, so-and-so's coming." if
  1577. 56:07it's you, or are they kind of
  1578. 56:09indifferent? And if they are excited,
  1579. 56:11how excited are they? And so on and so
  1580. 56:13forth. Do you know, do the people who
  1581. 56:14you meet out, are they excited to spend
  1582. 56:16more time with you or are they not? And
  1583. 56:17then I'd ask yourself to think about
  1584. 56:19what this I'd ask you to think about
  1585. 56:20what this is costing you. And really
  1586. 56:22what you want to do is you've got to
  1587. 56:23you've got to you've got to live your
  1588. 56:24life in a way where you're optimizing
  1589. 56:26different opportunities, okay, in order
  1590. 56:28to play the game of life properly. And
  1591. 56:30so what winds up happening
  1592. 56:32is that if you neglect a core area,
  1593. 56:34you're going to reap you're going to
  1594. 56:35reap what you sow, right? You're going
  1595. 56:36to have the consequences of that. And so
  1596. 56:38the pain of this can get very, very bad.
  1597. 56:40It can be embarrassing. It can be
  1598. 56:41frustrating. You're putting a lot of
  1599. 56:43work into something, you're not getting
  1600. 56:44an ROI on it, and so on and so forth.
  1601. 56:46Also, I'd ask you to consider, even when
  1602. 56:48you're going to raise your children,
  1603. 56:50what kind of personality are your
  1604. 56:51children going to have when they're
  1605. 56:52watching you doing this? What kind of
  1606. 56:54leader are you? What kind of vibe are
  1607. 56:56you creating around your friends? And
  1608. 56:58how good could your life be when you
  1609. 57:00take the time to cultivate this versus
  1610. 57:02how bad can your life be and frustrating
  1611. 57:04can it be when you don't.
  1612. 57:11THANK YOU, GUYS.
  1613. 57:16COULD YOU HOLD THE ENERGY OF A
  1614. 57:18500-person crowd without a microphone?
  1615. 57:21Can you walk into any environment and be
  1616. 57:23that wizard in the environment where
  1617. 57:25people want your attention? Are you that
  1618. 57:26person who can connect quickly and
  1619. 57:28people want to get to know you better
  1620. 57:29and follow up with you? We're going to
  1621. 57:31show you the exact skills of charisma.
  1622. 57:33I'm really really pumped for you. Get
  1623. 57:36ready. I'll see you inside Charisma
  1624. 57:37Mastery. Yo, Jeffy here. Let me ask you
  1625. 57:40a question.
  1626. 57:41How do you want your story to go?
  1627. 57:43Do you want to live an extraordinary
  1628. 57:45life? A life of fulfillment, a life of
  1629. 57:48accomplishment, a life of joy with
  1630. 57:51people that you actually care about
  1631. 57:53to give you a process to open and
  1632. 57:56sustain charismatic expression with
  1633. 57:58increasing consistency. Remove the
  1634. 58:00obstacles, isolate the skills, and put
  1635. 58:03it all together
  1636. 58:04because if you struggle with meeting
  1637. 58:05people
  1638. 58:06socially, how to speak to all of the
  1639. 58:07issues surrounding this inner
  1640. 58:10relationship between intuitive and
  1641. 58:12intellectual resources
  1642. 58:14is arguably the most fundamental
  1643. 58:15challenge facing anyone who's attempting
  1644. 58:17to improve their communication skills.
  1645. 58:19Because connecting with people
  1646. 58:21that leads to getting the promotion,
  1647. 58:23getting the partner of your dreams,
  1648. 58:25getting the social life that very few
  1649. 58:27people enjoy, and ultimately getting
  1650. 58:29that feeling that you belong.
  1651. 58:32Well, for over 17 years, I've been
  1652. 58:35helping people just like you. You see,
  1653. 58:37most people suffer from the same social
  1654. 58:39issues. They don't feel like they can
  1655. 58:41just be themselves. They feel judged.
  1656. 58:43They feel uncomfortable. Like they got
  1657. 58:46to walk on eggshells so they don't say
  1658. 58:48the wrong thing, offend someone, or
  1659. 58:52maybe ruin a relationship by expressing
  1660. 58:55themselves fully. That good old
  1661. 58:57aphorism, "Just be yourself." or "Just
  1662. 59:00be confident."
  1663. 59:02It's a vague abstraction that's really
  1664. 59:05just brought us more problems than
  1665. 59:06answers.
  1666. 59:07So, maybe you don't feel like you know
  1667. 59:09how to connect, communicate well, or add
  1668. 59:13value to your peer group. Does this
  1669. 59:15sound familiar?
  1670. 59:16These are obstacles that I used to face
  1671. 59:18a long time ago. But over time, 20 years
  1672. 59:21to be exact, I systematically learned to
  1673. 59:24overcome this with the right mindset and
  1674. 59:27an understanding that charisma is
  1675. 59:29actually one of the most important
  1676. 59:30skills you can develop, aka
  1677. 59:32self-expressiveness.
  1678. 59:33And why is that? Well, people like and
  1679. 59:37want to be around people who are easy to
  1680. 59:39connect with. Do you know how and why
  1681. 59:42people open up more easily around
  1682. 59:44others?
  1683. 59:45The answer is value. The value someone
  1684. 59:47gets when they interact with you that
  1685. 59:49makes them want to continue to connect
  1686. 59:51with you. And when I say value, I don't
  1687. 59:53mean a financial gain or any material
  1688. 59:56gain at all. It's a feel-good gain. A
  1689. 59:59gain that naturally comes from
  1690. 1:00:01charismatic people that literally
  1691. 1:00:02everyone wants to be around. And it's
  1692. 1:00:04the number one social issue I see every
  1693. 1:00:06day. The key is to project the kind of
  1694. 1:00:09life you want out into the world.
  1695. 1:00:12I've helped thousands of people overcome
  1696. 1:00:14all obstacles that are stopping them
  1697. 1:00:16from generating that feel-good gain for
  1698. 1:00:18others. How? By fully expressing who
  1699. 1:00:21they truly are. And that is what you
  1700. 1:00:23call charisma.
  1701. 1:00:25Now, you might say, "But I'm not a
  1702. 1:00:28charismatic person, Jeff." You might
  1703. 1:00:30think, you know, "I wasn't born with
  1704. 1:00:32that it factor." Well, I used to feel
  1705. 1:00:34the same way.
  1706. 1:00:35And I made it my life's mission to
  1707. 1:00:38actually figure this out. And after
  1708. 1:00:41almost two decades of successfully and
  1709. 1:00:43systematically coaching this, I've seen
  1710. 1:00:45it with my own eyes. You don't have to
  1711. 1:00:47wait to learn the exact mindset that my
  1712. 1:00:50students and myself use to live
  1713. 1:00:52unapologetically
  1714. 1:00:53100% me 100% of the time. And attract
  1715. 1:00:57and keep the people you want to be
  1716. 1:00:59around the most.
  1717. 1:01:01I dig deep, identify the exact issues
  1718. 1:01:04that are stopping you from succeeding,
  1719. 1:01:06and I help you to map out ways to
  1720. 1:01:08accomplish your social goals, removing
  1721. 1:01:10all the mental blocks, exponentially
  1722. 1:01:12accelerating your growth. And how do we
  1723. 1:01:14do this? By combining the lessons with
  1724. 1:01:16personal feedback, I will help you to be
  1725. 1:01:19the kind of person you're meant to be.
  1726. 1:01:21And that's the secret sauce to it all.
  1727. 1:01:23Having someone in your corner who's been
  1728. 1:01:25there, who's gone through that. Somebody
  1729. 1:01:27who knows what they're talking about.
  1730. 1:01:29And most importantly, who cares about
  1731. 1:01:30you and your results. And let me assure
  1732. 1:01:33you,
  1733. 1:01:34you don't get through 17 years of
  1734. 1:01:36coaching this stuff by not caring about
  1735. 1:01:38your clients.
  1736. 1:01:39And that's why so many of my students
  1737. 1:01:40see massive results.
  1738. 1:01:42Maybe that's connecting with someone you
  1739. 1:01:44like. Maybe that's learning to be
  1740. 1:01:45yourself. So, if you dream of creating
  1741. 1:01:48your own life on your own terms, and you
  1742. 1:01:50struggle in social settings due to a
  1743. 1:01:52lack of confidence, if you don't know
  1744. 1:01:54how to build strong relationships,
  1745. 1:01:56if you often feel alone, like you don't
  1746. 1:01:58have real friends, or you don't know how
  1747. 1:01:59to connect, you don't have to feel like
  1748. 1:02:02you don't belong in a room, like you're
  1749. 1:02:04not a valuable part of any social
  1750. 1:02:07circle, because this is a learnable
  1751. 1:02:10skill.
  1752. 1:02:11If you've ever learned a new language,
  1753. 1:02:12or know somebody who has, or if you've
  1754. 1:02:15ever seen how artists learn to improve
  1755. 1:02:16their stage presence and their
  1756. 1:02:17performance over time, then you've seen
  1757. 1:02:20proof that becoming charismatic is a
  1758. 1:02:22learnable and coachable skill. As long
  1759. 1:02:24as you're willing to put in the work,
  1760. 1:02:25you can learn this. There's no magic
  1761. 1:02:28wand, there's no silver bullet, but I
  1762. 1:02:30will hold you accountable for a whole 6
  1763. 1:02:32months to train you up like an artistic
  1764. 1:02:35coach would, and get you those results.
  1765. 1:02:38But you have to do the work. This is
  1766. 1:02:40your life we're talking about here. No
  1767. 1:02:42one else is going to put the effort in
  1768. 1:02:43for you. I'll guide you every step of
  1769. 1:02:45the way, but you need to put in the
  1770. 1:02:46work. You can learn how to be the most
  1771. 1:02:49charismatic person in any room. You
  1772. 1:02:51know, that person that everyone wants to
  1773. 1:02:53talk to, or everyone wants to be friends
  1774. 1:02:54with. You can learn to project that
  1775. 1:02:57feel-good gain they all want to be
  1776. 1:02:59around.
  1777. 1:03:00Strong and successful connections start
  1778. 1:03:03with charisma. And that's why I've
  1779. 1:03:04developed this program called charisma
  1780. 1:03:06mastery to help you learn faster to be
  1781. 1:03:08expressive, so you're you.
  1782. 1:03:11Now, this is a system that I've
  1783. 1:03:13developed over the last 17 years of life
  1784. 1:03:15coaching.
  1785. 1:03:16I used to teach strangers how to connect
  1786. 1:03:17with each other. I don't lie about that.
  1787. 1:03:19But Charisma Mastery isn't just about
  1788. 1:03:22connecting with people you're
  1789. 1:03:23romantically interested in. It's about
  1790. 1:03:25building a better you. And once you
  1791. 1:03:27complete this course, you'll be a new, a
  1792. 1:03:30best version of yourself. You'll become
  1793. 1:03:32the person you were meant to be. The
  1794. 1:03:34person everyone wants to be around.
  1795. 1:03:37Free from concern. Free from judgement
  1796. 1:03:39from yourself and others.
  1797. 1:03:41Now, if you're just starting out on your
  1798. 1:03:43personal growth journey, and maybe you
  1799. 1:03:46feel a little bit lost, like you don't
  1800. 1:03:48know what to do next, then this is for
  1801. 1:03:50you.
  1802. 1:03:51It all starts with the four big issues
  1803. 1:03:53that people have. And the biggest of
  1804. 1:03:55these is self-judgement. In other words,
  1805. 1:03:58how you talk to yourself.
  1806. 1:03:59So, maybe you judge yourself. Or you're
  1807. 1:04:02constantly thinking about other people
  1808. 1:04:04judging you. If you give power to others
  1809. 1:04:07by making them the issue, it's virtually
  1810. 1:04:10impossible to become charismatic, let
  1811. 1:04:12alone connect with someone. So, once you
  1812. 1:04:14understand why and how talking to
  1813. 1:04:16yourself the right way is so important,
  1814. 1:04:19then you can move on to break out of
  1815. 1:04:20your shell.
  1816. 1:04:21And even if you tried in the past, this
  1817. 1:04:24will be different because I'll walk you
  1818. 1:04:26through my systematic approach to bring
  1819. 1:04:29out your true self. So, you can just
  1820. 1:04:30live as you, without the social
  1821. 1:04:31pressures, without the anxiety out there
  1822. 1:04:34in the real world.
  1823. 1:04:36So next, once you talk to yourself the
  1824. 1:04:38right way, you need the tools to help
  1825. 1:04:40you put what's on the inside outside.
  1826. 1:04:43And we excel at this. Through a number
  1827. 1:04:45of at home and then outside the home
  1828. 1:04:47dynamics and personal feedback for six
  1829. 1:04:50whole months, we help you to nail these
  1830. 1:04:52until you've come out the other end a
  1831. 1:04:54free, fully expressive version of
  1832. 1:04:56yourself. And once you've achieved that
  1833. 1:04:58high level of charisma, we help you
  1834. 1:05:00implement those results in your life, in
  1835. 1:05:03your social circle, in your family, in
  1836. 1:05:05your professional life. And finally,
  1837. 1:05:06there's the fourth step, which is
  1838. 1:05:08helping you keep these results for good.
  1839. 1:05:10So again, fix your internals, put what's
  1840. 1:05:13on the inside outside,
  1841. 1:05:15implement this in your life for 6 months
  1842. 1:05:18and keep the results for good.
  1843. 1:05:20But, I can only help if you're the kind
  1844. 1:05:22of person that's 100% committed and
  1845. 1:05:24ready to take action. And that's what
  1846. 1:05:26this new Charisma Mastery program is all
  1847. 1:05:28about, to help you hone the learnable
  1848. 1:05:30skill of charisma.
  1849. 1:05:32It's designed to give you the confidence
  1850. 1:05:33to approach any situation with ease, to
  1851. 1:05:37learn how to connect with anyone,
  1852. 1:05:39anywhere authentically and successfully
  1853. 1:05:42by giving them that so-called feel-good
  1854. 1:05:44game. And by doing so, you'll be
  1855. 1:05:47creating those dream relationships and
  1856. 1:05:49those strong connections, so you can
  1857. 1:05:51actually live life on your own terms.
