Attention is the most valuable personal asset in the modern digital economy, functioning as 'digital oil' that companies and institutions compete to capture, monetize, and exploit through algorithms, data collection, and targeted content; this attention economy has fragmented human focus, reduced attention spans to approximately 45 seconds, and created a trillion-dollar industry where personal data and behavioral patterns are harvested, analyzed, and sold to predict and influence consumer behavior, ultimately undermining deep thinking, mental well-being, and authentic human connection.

Your attention is like a digital oil. It s in everything and we go to wars for it #tech #ai #art$本站添加:
Yeah, life gets weird sometimes.
Might as well ride the wave.
Street lights go in the summer rain.
Everybody running in the same old lane.
But somewhere underneath the noise.
People still connect to simple joys.
Late night talks and coffee steam.

Sunny, stormy weather.

Old guitars and dashboard lights. Deep conversations through endless nights.
Talking aliens, dreams and fate. While every system operates late, >> someone spots another clue. Someone else brings a different view. Every mind, helping everybody slowly heal. No one has it figured out. That's what all this is about. Different people finding flow.
Learning as we drift and grow. We ride through the haze, finding meaning in 100.
We are surfing together.

Man, Evil Eddie made this. Hit hit him up.
Uh he did the background, the art, and everything. This is um one of several songs that he's made.
Uh so, props to him. Let me uh pause that now.
So um what I want to talk about today is um uh how important attention is. Attention and I called I said your attention is like a digital oil. It's in everything and we go to war for it. And it's true and it's it's always been this way. Uh it's just a little bit more prevalent right now.
Um there's a kind of an old saying where attention goes energy flows and a lot of that's true. Your attention is incredibly valuable. Um but often times uh it can be kind of wasted and we live in a world of of endless distractions uh all the time. I mean if you even go to the gym what do you see all over the place? TVs to what? Grab your attention.
You're at a gas station. There's what? A TV there when you're pumping gas and the gas pump to get your attention. There's a radio playing to what? Get your attention. Um 304 is addressing hot to what? Get your attention.
Everything is trying to garner your attention at all times all the time.
When we give something attention, we kind of give it life. in a sense. Um, and it's it's actually even proven through like quantum physics. Certain things need like an observer for them to like exist in a sense. So, we'll get a little bit into that, but your attention is so valuable and your attention is now like a data and the data is um it it's it's like a it's like a digital oil. They want to put it in a 55gallon drum and sell it um to companies to try to what figure out how to hack your attention. So you buy products and they can make an algorithm that will basically like sell to you and stuff like that.
Um um things like that. So it's it's crazy important. Now, women live for attention.
That's one of the things they like.
They've even said they like attention almost more than sex.
Um, and that might be true, but we're not really talking about I don't want to focus so much on getting attention. I want to focus on what you're giving your attention to.
We have kind of a epidemic of people saying that they have ADHD now that seems to be on a rise for men and women. It's not just young boys in the classroom that can't pay attention when they're being indoctrinated.
Um, that's why you see the rise of drugs like aderall and whatnot.
But the the problem is is that people don't have to take Adderall for doing things that they enjoy because they naturally want to give their attention to it. So, and we live in an attention-based economy. Like, I'm I'm trying to garner your attention to watch this show because I think the show is going to be a valuable use of your attention. But your attention is actually gold. Your intention is the most important thing that you can control in your life. This is why you don't see many people reading books. Why? Because they need focused attention. You need a little bit of discipline to actually sit down and read a book.
It's much easier to go through scrolling through reels and doom scrolling and all that because it's a quick attention grab. It's a cheap energy hit. It's a little boost.
So that's that is really destroying people's attention span.
Um I think that they've said now that people's attention span is only like 45 seconds or so. So you can't really describe anything to them that has any nuance or context because that takes, you know, it might take a few minutes to set something up.
If I have to tell you something about ancient Rome or something like that, I may have to give you um you know, a couple paragraphs of context before I actually make the point that I want to make. That is all going down the drain.
It's just all going down the drain. And that's a big problem because you can't have a deep thought, a philosophical thought or change your paradigm of how you think or see the world or operate in it if you don't really think about it on a deep level. Everything we're doing is is surface level thinking and that's that's kind of by design.
Um it's quick stimulation. It's um it's little dopamine hits. It's small amounts of bullshit. It's um you know what I mean? Like you're trying to read something and then you see some giant titties o over that come up as the next thing and then your attention is just shot. So control of our attention is massively powerful. This is a lot of what martial arts do as well. What are you doing? You're controlling your attention. This is like what Tai Chi and things like this too. It's controlling your attention uh and like synchronizing it with your body, things like that. So attention is massively important and we've kind of forgot how important it is, how valuable it is and how valuable it is to other people.
Also too, there's a lot of people who will just straight up waste your attention that you give them. You know, a lot of modern dating, I'm sure women and men, they get they give their attention to somebody um they're talking to them, texting with them, trying to take, you know, go out on dates and all that and then it just all goes to nothing because why? Because they're getting attention from so many different places. So everyone has spread themselves so thin that they never uh lock in commit and get serious about anything.
So it's a major problem for dating, saving money, becoming good at something, learning, um creating many many different things. uh even just be able to get a joke or something like that takes a certain amount of attention to read between the lines and find the details or the subtleties and whatnot.
So attention is massively important and there's there's whole industries on how to take your attention and also too on a sort of a deeper level.
So where they're saying attention goes energy flows that kind of almost creates a reality in itself. So this is where we see news media come in.
If we see that um that boat that um with that hun virus or whatever and they're trying to put this all in your face. Oh look it's going to be like the next co it's a it's the haunt virus and all that. What are they trying to do? They're trying to get your they're planting a seed, but they want you to water it and nurture it and have it grow with your attention and your and ideally fear attention. So, attention, let me actually type this out. So, they want attention plus fear or emotion.
Um, plus plus Well, we we'll say plus emotion.
Attention plus fear.
I mean, attention plus emotion can create action.
Okay?
So, if you take action to say, "Oh, I better go get more masks because of this haunt virus or something," you are starting to make it real.
That's and these type of things happen all the time for good or bad conscious or unconscious.
That's how a lot of this stuff works. So I if you start taking action on it from what your emotional response that makes it more real. You're giving life to it.
So when we go look online and we're giving all attention to we're giving our attention away like so I guess I guess what I'm trying to say is before social media before things like reals and whatnot you could be very focused and disciplined on a couple things that you needed to do and you had a much more peaceful life. You could be in a flow state. You cannot be in a flow state when you have a disruptive, distracting environment.
Seeing titties all the time, seeing ass, seeing someone jump off a building, seeing, I don't know, some crazy stuff, the next craziest news story. that is to not only just garner your attention a little bit but destroy your uh ability to have a focus level attention for a long period of time. That's why I like you guys stay on these shows a long time is it's this is like a gym for your attention. We want you to I want you to think outside the box and kind of stay focused on a certain point for a little bit. Most people cannot do that. Most people don't have I don't know I guess that type of discipline. So I mean I I am here to try to make entertaining.
This isn't like about doing work but that's that's part of what it is and your attention is also linked to so companies view your attention as data. So we're going to look at how that also plays into the money side of things.
Your age, your income, your gender, the things you like to share with your friends, the things you would like to keep to yourself, combined with the thousands of other data points have become a trillion dollar savings account for the biggest tech companies in the world. And in the next 5 years, they are going to start making >> and again these cameras and what is that? What are they doing? They're putting attention on you.
You see that? They're putting attention on you to also track what you're doing, your behaviors. But but what is a camera?
If you think about it, what is a camera?
It's a device that channels attention.
That's what it is. It captures something. But what is it capturing or recording? It's it's kind of recording basically a human perceiving something.
is is, you know, it's a machine, but ultimately it's going to be some human that will review it.
>> Withdrawals.
>> I want to make sure I pause it enough. I don't know if this is copyright, so fair use >> under mounting pressure to answer questions about how a data firm with ties to President Trump's 2016 campaign collected private information from more than 50 million.
>> And again, the the you're you're not going to be able to hide all your data with VPNs and stuff like that. They're going to have it. You know, it is what it is.
>> Facebook users without their permission.
>> Political campaigns want to advertise to voters in the most efficient way possible.
>> General of Washington DC filed a lawsuit Wednesday against Facebook over the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
>> Again, anytime you have to sign one of those things to update or something like that, they use your data. They're selling you data. Facebook was also partly started by DARPA.
You know, they're watching what you do.
Like we know this, but it's not they're not just watching what you do, waiting for you to do something bad or say the wrong thing. They're trying to see how you tick.
What you're a lab rat to them essentially. So they need to take, you know, take as much data as they can.
>> No secret that big tech companies have been collecting pabytes of data on every user they can lure.
>> Never even heard of a pedabyte >> onto their platform. I'm very concerned that the people that are spending most of the time right now speaking and focusing and thinking about big data are large companies and governments. And that's fine, but this is going to affect our lives, our parents, our kids. And I think we should all be >> Well, we're already we're we're already there, man. Like, you know, like this is something people would talk about a couple years ago and just no one would care, but still kind of no one really does. Big data has become one of the most attractive assets to investors.
Companies like Snowflake, Terod Data, and Palunteer that do nothing but compile and manage billions of data points and turn them into useful information are worth bill because they're trying to make an algorithm of you to know what you are going to do.
>> Billions of dollars the >> and not just as this is not just as a consumer. This is one thing I want to point out here. This is not just as a consumer because that's how they pitch it to you. Oh yeah, this is just so we can figure out what products to sell you that suit you best. That's all. We're actually trying to help you. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. Yeah, they'll use that to help you, but they want to know, what you eat, how you think, every little thing, everything.
manager Snowflake was so attractive that they even got the legendary Warren Buffett to change his investing strategy around tech IPOs so he could include them in his portfolio. Those are just the companies that make sense of your data, the companies that can actually harvest.
>> Again, just one thing about Warren Buffett. Warren Buffett is a disciplined trader. Yes. And he's done it for a long time. But his dad was a senator in Omaha.
So he was do he's been doing insider trading and known stuff for a long time.
Is he a disciplined trader? Yes. But his dad was also a senator. He's been linked into the shit the whole time >> in his portfolio. Those are just the companies that make sense of your data.
The companies that can actually harvest it are worth trillions. And that's because your information is useful for so much more than just targeted advertising.
>> Whenever we're online, information brokers collect our data and use it to assemble user profiles that can earn >> the dossier on you.
and them a lot of money.
>> Jeff Bezos may or may not be using Alexa to listen out for product recommend.
>> What do you mean may or may not? Of course he's doing it for that. That's part of why they put it in your household to record what you say and stuff like that. It It's not It's not to record what they say because they care about really what you're saying. It's more about compiling data, creating algorithms, and things like that.
um things like that. Um this is why I worry about the data centers because what what are the data centers doing? They're just processing this information quicker.
>> But all of this will be used against you.
They're going to say, "Oh, you see this uh stove here? It's a smart stove. He turns it on for 30 minutes um from 6:30 to 7:00 to cook his dinner. Let's see if we can get that down to 20 minutes.
It's not to save you money. You'll still probably pay the same bill, but they're going to say, "Well, you know, we don't want you to use as much electricity because the data processing center uh actually needs that more than you uh heating up your spaghetti or boiling tea and shit like that.
>> Have a Sunday."
>> But that's just the cherry on top of the big data sundae. There are much more profitable business strategies used by the big data companies than using your data to recommend you a new toaster. Big data is becoming a new big oil because memory store.
>> See this? They're calling it the new big oil. See, I didn't even know that they were going to say this, but yeah, these 55gallon drums are equivalent of of what your data makeup, your DNA data makeup. Are you looking at corn? Are you not looking at corn? Are you watching football? Are you watching reality TV? Are you looking at alien stuff? Um, what products are you buying online? Um, you know, what medications are you taking? Like, it actually gets crazy.
How much are you spending in gas? Which gas stations did you go to? Like, it's actually endless.
>> Has become orders of magnitude cheaper.
In the 2000s, big tech companies started to realize that their data would be highly monetizable through commerce and direct sales to third party data brokers. So, they started to collect as much as they could. But data brokers often take all the breadcrumbs that they have gathered about you, pair them with other data they can obtain, and then share all of it with businesses who want to market to you. And they will frame this as a win-win.
>> Back then, >> it's not just marketing. This is what I'm talking about.
It's not just marketing to you.
That sounds nice and stuff. It's not just marketing to you. That it's it's beyond that. It It's really beyond that.
In my opinion, it's definitely beyond that.
>> Share them with other data they can obtain and then share all of it with businesses who want to market to you.
And they will frame this as a win-win.
>> Back then, high volume data center memory still cost as much as $10,000 per terabyte. And it was stored on highly inefficient hard drives. All web companies had to store some transactional user data like login information.
>> So, this is what I'm also trying to say about these data centers and stuff. a lot of it is just going to simply be used on stuff um against you.
Um so they're going to have a lot on file to use against you. It's not really going to be to serve you. They'll in fact they'll actually make you pay to access your own data they already basically like stole from you.
>> Ch.
>> As a matter of fact, um Snowboard, do you remember an was it Andrew Yang? Can you hear me? Yeah, I can hear you. I remember Andrew Yang and the Yang Gang.
Yeah.
>> So, um and and you you more than likely you may know more about this than I do, but when he was making his um presidential run, excuse me, he did have a very interesting um point of view um in regards to UBI, universal um universal basic.
>> He's got some good stuff.
>> Yeah. And so and but his ideal behind it I thought was brilliant. All of these companies are generating this is a multibillion dollar industry.
>> It's huge. Yeah.
>> Um collecting our data, collecting our attention, learning how to sell, market to us.
>> And we're talking medical data, every goddamn thing. Everything. Everything.
>> Everything you can imagine. Blood type, everything.
And so his point of view was how do we fund UBI? These companies have to pay us a percentage of the income that they derive from our information >> and I don't know why that didn't get more um airplay and that didn't get more time. I mean I I have my opinions around that.
>> It's sensible so they're not gonna that.
Yeah.
>> Yeah. And so yeah, it was very interesting and and I and like I said, I I wish they would have talked more about that because to me that was brilliant.
>> I didn't know if he was trying to derive it from that. Um >> yeah, if I can find some information about it, I'll forward it over to you in the Discord.
>> Okay. Yeah. No, that's um but this this data is so valuable and it's not really talked about because it's it's not the data itself per se. It's what they can predict from it. You know what I mean?
Like we go back to Warren Buffett. We just saw a picture of him. He's someone who would be like a mad scientist with all this data and be able to really figure out how to manipulate a market.
Most of it's used in market manipulation. It's not to serve you.
It's to pretty much go against you.
So keep in mind I was in I did I was in the mortgage industry for a decade um before I switched to banking and finance. And so when I tell you I have looked at tens of thousands of credit reports >> and bank statements >> it's not hyperbole over the past 20 years. And you know, when I I talk about, you know, Negroamus and stuff like that, I'm not joking because I can literally look at your credit report and your last two bank statements and you'd be surprised at how much I know about you, your life, what you value. And and people I I people were always shocked with how much I could tell and how much I about them.
And it's like it's not it's not it's not right.
>> That's only two data sets really.
>> Exactly. They have literally hundreds, if not even more. They know where you They know like when you're taking a dump.
They actually I'm pretty sure Facebook like knows when you're going to take a dump and like like think about it. You have your phone in your pocket. So it can like every phone has GPS in it by default since the very first cell phone.
So they almost know like, okay, he's walking to his stove. He's walking back to his computer. He's walking here. They like know everything that happens. As a matter of fact, maybe I shouldn't say this um in case we because you know I I know how much of a criminal mastermind Keshan Jones is. So maybe I shouldn't say this, but as a matter of fact, that's one of the ways they solve crimes. Um they look to see the cell phone data in that area. We've seen enough um we we've seen enough true crime videos where they've had nothing but just the color of a car. We knew that we knew it was a white um you know Ford tourist >> and they ping all they look at all they can pull all the cell phons that was in that area and then yeah they actually caught someone. So sorry to sorry to say that what that's also called and so it's not just the cell phones there's a whole different thing of it which is a different type of um data gathering thing called the flock system >> I'll type it in flock f l o c k the flock system is similar to what cgrip is saying so they once they find it's a white car whatever then your local police department or even other people can put it into the flock system. The flock system is cameras on stop lightss, street corners, toll booths, shit like that. You almost can't drive anywhere.
You probably have to be way out in the country to not be seen by something like that. And the way that flock started was they kind of just like started doing without really asking the public's permission for it. So, um, they they also can do that, which is, you know, that's not a big surprise to anybody, but it's called the flock system. Uh, what were you going to say, Secret? They also um the police will use that.
Yeah, we were we I think I was actually watching a video where um someone um I fell down a rabbit hole in regards to these people, you know, unalivvening people over fast food, you know.
>> Well, well, when we say these people, we know >> we know we know who that is. And a and actually actually actually I watched um there's actually YouTube change where I fell on a rabbit hole. I literally watched like 20 30 of these incidences and yeah I I I I wanted a snowflake to be at least one of them. It wasn't.
>> It wasn't. It wasn't. Well well >> it's not it didn't happen at a Panera Bread place, did it? No, it didn't. No, it didn't. It happened at the fried chicken.
insane. But yeah, and so and they caught her um because they they just had to color the car and um and they were able to catch her because of the self her cell phone was in the area. She had the car. Bam. Got her.
>> Black Nissan Ultima just got pulled right over.
>> So that type of data gathering is a little different. Like I'm not really gonna count that. It it is it is valuable to bring in the conversation, but it's what you give your attention to.
Giving your attention and thoughts to something is one of the last things that we can control and it's actually one of the most powerful things. So if you're giving your attention to watching football, we'll say, that's a lot of time and attention. And when you're watching football, guess what?
You're actually just watching commercials like most of the time.
So, I'll just throw that out there.
Commercials. What is a commercial? Why are commercials so important? Because they're meant to grab your attention.
That's if you if I need to sell you something, I need to get your attention.
Um, like the Alec Baldwin, like AIDS, attention, information, decision, action, or whatever it is.
That's that's what they're doing all the time. That's why you see Doug and Emu, the the goddamn Liberty Mutual things everywhere you turn. Um stuff like that.
So, the squandering of our attention is really uh messing a lot up. But um this but the attention also they're recording what you're giving your attention to. I guess >> everything integral to their service.
The big data companies went further and took a chance by collecting thousands of other non-essential data points like how long users stayed on certain pages.
>> And again, that was Mark Zuckerberg there >> and everything integral to their service. The big data companies went further and took a chance by collecting thousands of other non >> I don't know that might be him. I think it is. But he didn't create fully Facebook. Part of it is is DARPA too to what? get information on people. And getting information on people doesn't necessarily have to be bad, but it's not going to be, in my opinion, they're not going to like use it to really help you as much as go against you.
>> Essential data points like how long users stayed on certain pages, what time of day people would interact with certain services, and what caused users to leave the platform. The business value of this data was obvious, but it was too expensive to store and compiling such large data sets into usable information would take weeks or months with the computers available at the time.
The companies made the bet that storage would become cheaper and computer processing would become faster and as it did the data >> well no it's not cheap. Well, it is a little bit it is so there's this there's a twofold thing to this.
What's that law secretrip that you were you've said it before. So basically like every two years the technology almost doubles up.
>> Yeah.
>> Was it Greshams? No. Was it um give me a second. I'll tell you >> it was some type some type of such and such law but basically >> and I learned this from like a Brian Tracy book like a long time ago actually. So like if you get a um computer in I don't know 1996 when 1998 comes around the next computer will be so good you could s you could consider the one other one obsolete.
It's not obsolete.
>> Moore's law.
>> Moors law. Yeah. Moore's law. So the yes the the computer processing power and memory does get cheaper. Yes. But the demand for it will just go exceedingly higher. That's why they're doing the data storage and all this. It will just never be it will basically never be enough because it's not unlimited. So they it's basically will never be enough. So that demand is not going away. No matter what jumps we have in technology like quantum computing and stuff, the they're still going to keep building a lot of these and you know saying you got to store everything on the cloud and stuff. that's not going away.
>> They were collecting would become proportionally more valuable. The companies that started earliest took the biggest risks, but they were able to build the biggest data modes, >> right? So, you know, if you're a small new company and if you don't have any specific data sets, yeah, unfortunately, I think you are at a disadvantage.
>> Investors love when a company is hard to compete with because competition leads to lower margins and greater risk of losing customers. Well, you made it, Peter.
>> I'm not sure what ASW is.
You're a big >> like an Amazon thing kind of got >> in charge of a whole bunch of people.
>> Amazon Web Services. Um I think it's was it >> okay? Probably. Probably. Yeah, probably. Yeah, I think you're right.
>> Make anti-competitive behavior illegal for companies. So, the next best thing they do is build moes around their market. These are advantages to the incumbent market leader.
>> And it's not a moat. It's like a toll booth really. you they they clip your coin to they make you pay to access an information >> that any would be competitor would have to overcome to start gaining market >> basically to kiss that wall >> share detailed user data is a huge advantage for one company to have over another Microsoft executives found that providing their businessto business sales executives with detailed market analytics could improve >> Hang on let's I'm going to read that here's an example of shit that we were were shown things like this but we don't actually read it like we're not reading much, including myself. I don't sit and read a ton of books. I'll be I'll be honest with you. Harvard Business Review, a look into Microsoft's data-driven approach to improving sales.
Again, they're always going to pitch it to you. Oh, we're just improving sales, which is part of it, and I'm a saleserson, so I would want to know everything about them, too, I guess. But other companies are going to use it in a in a sinister way eventually. Companies are beginning to utilize their employees behavioral data. Listen to that. Listen to that. Look at Secret. They won't even let him listen to this show because his goddamn computer at his work. Companies are beginning to Why? And and why would Secret's company do that? Because he's giving my the attention to me. He still is doing work. I think he's I don't think he's totally screwing up. But you're giving attention to me. And they don't like that. They don't like that.
>> Imagine. Imagine. And for a whole year, not one problem. For a whole year over over >> and you still were completing your work and stuff. Yeah. You know, you're doing work. He's he's >> there. He's a hard worker's there to do, you know, work. Work is first. This is all bullshit. This is extra for fun stuff. Um, but some people it does they are able to they need a little bit of a stimulant at at work. So, Crrip's not taking Adderall. He's listening to something like this to help keep his mind sort of occupied so he can focus on as a background thing so we can focus on actually really what he's doing.
>> Yes. Coffee and monster energy.
>> Yeah. Yeah. So companies are beginning to utilize their employees behavioral data. So that means spying on you basically. Generally uh companies are beginning to utilize their employees behavioral data generally known as people analytics to better understand and improve their sales operations with strong results. Microsoft uh where we work is no exception and in B2 businessto business sales is one of the areas where we are seeing the most value. our findings and the ways we came to them uh can be useful to other sales organizations looking to make internal changes. So who to fire? When they say make internal changes, that means who to fire of this type of uh of this type or optimize how their salespeople relate to customers. That was kind of written weird. So some as a salesperson, it is good to know everything about people like that because it helps you word things better. present things better, maybe things that you don't say because it will trigger them and piss them off, something like that. But, you know, they're they're they're also thinking about how to sell you how to live in a pod, shit like that. It's going to be how to sell to you the next scop or whatever. So, it can be used in nefarious ways. detailed market analytics could improve their productivity by 30%. a new company looking for market share won't have >> and also too this part of all this this this data collection and everything like that is going to what algorithms including me I like to appease the YouTube algorithm now because I'm its golden boy so I need >> a matter of fact you're right about No you're you're right about that >> I'm right about it yeah >> I was I was I was watching a video um about YouTube and in regard ards to >> you have to sip kind of >> exactly because um what they do is they from from what I read they look to see you know which content and like which you know gets most views and they will only push your content if you keep people on YouTube. YouTube's goal is to keep you on YouTube. If they can keep you on YouTube 20 hours a day, they will. And if they promote your content and they see that when people click on your content, they're leaving YouTube, they stop promoting you. And if they see promoting your content keeps you on YouTube longer, they'll promote you even more.
>> Yeah. And and and by the way, there's nothing wrong with that either. There's nothing there's nothing wrong with that.
Um, I'm not just saying that because I because I like YouTube because I I do like YouTube and I think it can be valuable, but they that's what they should be doing. You know, that makes that makes really good sense.
>> User data until they get users.
>> What I'm the point that I was also trying to make is these algorithms and all that, like I've tried to say before, like they do kind of become your god and they they have a heavy influence on how you do things.
So, you change your behavior sometimes based on that. And I'll, you know, just I'll leave it at that. Including myself.
You know, I'm not saying I'm above any of this stuff. I'm just pointing it out.
And it will be hard for them to get users when they are competing against entrenched companies that already have user data. Tesla has a significantly higher earnings multiplier than legacy car brands because it made collecting driver data a priority, which is currently being used to develop full self-driving features. If >> Tesla got a lot of help from the government, too, guys. And uh Elon Musk's dad is also a billionaire just so you just so you know that and was a billionaire.
>> Tesla never successfully implements autonomous driving >> before before he made his money. Just just to let you know >> the millions of hours of driving data that it is stored could be sold to another automaker trying to develop self-driving. If Tesla doesn't want to sell its data mode, it could be used to make it >> they can gate it >> cars better in other ways.
>> So that's another thing too is they want to gather all this information. So they can gatekeep it. So you have to pay the digital toll or subscription fee to be getting that data for whatever purpose you want to use it.
>> Like predicting, >> which by the way is not it's not bad. It is it is giving some value. So I'm not going to fully be hating on this all the time.
>> Driving habits to increase efficiency or churning out where to put new superchargers on the network. Anything to make it harder for other electric automakers to catch up.
>> We have more data now than we've ever had before. we can understand real exposure and then we can design our vehicles for that exposure.
>> Building a competitive mode to make it harder for startups to enter your market.
>> So I've never heard the term competitive mode. Have you se grip is that that sounds almost like gatekeeping or making it?
>> It is.
>> It is um it's actually one of the concepts to um rule one invest in which is a Warren Buffett concept that you want to be with a company that has um that that makes it difficult for competitors to penetrate barriers to entry. So that's why they call it a moat because castles will build a moat around it. And so it's kind of like um you know um McDonald's for example, you know you know anyone can do burgers and stuff like that, but McDonald's they're real estate company and they have their stores a lot of prime um real estate.
And so that's a big use that's a big barrier to entry for someone trying to compete against McDonald's or for example um Coca-Cola um for example.
They're pretty much in almost every restaurant. Yeah. Yeah.
>> And so it's hard for you to get in. So you look for companies that have a moat around it.
>> Okay.
>> And so and so for Tesla, for example, um they're actually funny because driving house in Idaho probably has a moat of Coca-Cola around the whole goddamn thing.
>> Warren Buffett's a creepy guy kind of.
He Yeah, they say, "Yeah, he's a good investor, but his dad was a senator.
They're doing insider trading.
You know what I mean? If your dad's a senator in in Omaha, when you're doing your trading career, like you know people, you can kind of get some information. So, I'm not saying he doesn't have any skill or anything by any means, but like let's be real here.
>> Wait, >> Warren Buffett's now senator.
>> Wait, are you trying to say Nancy Pelosi and her husband are not investing geniuses?
>> They're not. I hate to break you guys. I know you guys thought she was a genius, but yeah, that that type that's what they do in Congress. That's why Congress only pays like 250k a year, but they come out millionaires after because they're doing a bunch of stuff like this. Why? Because they probably create that the moat uh around certain information and whatnot. So, like a lot of these tech things, it should be it should be an equalizer. So, because it could be saying, "Okay, well, I have access to all the same information that Warren Buffett does." It's like, "Yeah, kind of, but you're going to have to pay for it, and there's always going to be I'm not really quite sure what to think about it." But, but the the point I'm also trying to make is the data is also what in a record or an account of what you're giving your attention to or holding it on andor doing.
So if you're buying stuff online, if you're buying um umbrellas on the Tik Tok shop, that means that you were it can mean a whole bunch of different things. So there that's what I'm saying. Your attention is actually like golden. It's valuable.
>> It is just the first >> in many ways. This is just one of them.
>> That data has become the new oil.
>> We don't know anything about how >> I didn't know that they were going to say that that the data was like the oil like that either. By the way, >> what Amazon or Google um really does with our data, um we have to take their word for it. We in fact, if anything, we sign away half of our rights to these data.
>> So, it's time to learn how money works to find out why your information has become a trillion dollar market.
>> Trillion dollar market, guys.
Think of that.
>> This week's lesson was sponsored by Guardio. Sometimes you give your data to these companies willingly and they turn it into billion dollar payouts. But sometimes people maliciously >> what what's gonna happen with this guardio like what is this funny this is his commercial for his thing but what is guardio gonna do it makes the moat around you >> steal your most >> you need to keep paying subscription for >> important information >> and what guardio does is probably say hey we can sell it to a company but for the right price everything is for sale so as far as protecting your own information I wouldn't really worry about it too much because they're going to get it anyways and you can't live so paranoid about it, I guess. Um, or I'm not really sure. I'm just saying I don't really try to give it too crazy.
I'm also like doing a show, so I'm putting I'm kind of want people to look at that.
>> Take money right out of your pocket. But Gardio is here to help.
>> Wow. Vertio is a browser extension that provides comprehensive of popular YouTubers being compromised and wonder why this happens. Many believe that two-factor authentication is sufficient fort often comfortable you can protect malware.
>> Sorry, I don't want to play a >> expensive in-house tools to analyze.
Many large corporations tried to build data management tools in house but most were clunky and slow costing more than they ever earned in improved business operations. Large tech companies that already had experience building software were the only ones that got it right.
And other companies >> were left using basic regression analysis.
>> Anytime you see a guy like this douche here, this guy is a douchebag. I hate this little twirl thing. You can only pull that off if you're like a kind of older type like muscle head Mr. Clean dude. But this guy is a dork here. I hate that look. I don't know what it is.
Sometimes the people with mustaches are just the worst >> done by teams of analysts to make >> and when we say like the archetype of Gavin that's who that is >> used of their databases. It was a huge market opportunity that had been filled by third party specializing in data analytics. Companies like Snowflake, Terodata, Amazon, Redshift and Google's bitquery will >> again thanks for being here guys. I appreciate it. um and and liking all the videos and um watching the comment and content and um commenting and you know with intelligent responses and whatnot.
Um I've got um the subscribers really going up. So it was all you know from the support of you guys because when I do these shows I'm just I'm just clipping it really for the you know parts that I think are are really good.
So um thank you. ingest a company's database and provide a range of tailored tools to quickly and intuitively work with the customer data they invested so much time in collecting. These services have a price range between $250,000 and $5 million per year, which is an insignificant investment for major companies that would have spent that much on internal tools anyway. In exchange, they get tools that are constantly updated and function as required.
>> Also too, the data half the reason they wanted data so they could run it through AI.
That's why I worry about this. That's where the data centers come in because it's going to be we're gonna go from like, you know, like a let's say that these we're going from like basically from like a V8 engine to the engine the size of a giant like cruise ship. That type of jump in like computing power and stuff like that. And I don't know if people really it's and it's but it's going to be for like how to plug in more algorithms and stuff like that. It's going to probably be used to be like tracking you more. Like you're still as far as I'm concerned the internet and computer is every is pretty quick. All my internet works pretty fast. Like I don't think I need it to go way faster. It's like I think we're good. And I actually like some of the AI now, the lower level AI, like to make some pictures and stuff like that's kind of cool, but like um they're going to part start to do it to figure out speech patterns and and way more crazy stuff.
>> Well, when you were talking about the whole Alexa stuff and everything, that's what that is about to get to learning language. They want to know how we talk regularly and so they they can incorporate that in their AI learning model.
>> Yeah. Large the long large language models and stuff like that. But there but what the computers this is this is why I try to say to people like it's going to become basically its own consciousness because we're training it to kind of do that because we're you know it it's constantly learning and training all the time. So, it's just going to be um I guess just kind of a norm.
>> The customer turnover rates from the biggest data analytics providers is extremely low, which signals that the companies that work with them are satisfied with the results they provide.
Modern tools are >> here's what this guy did. This sellout, this guy jacked off two guys like this.
This what he did.
>> Turnover rates from the biggest data analytics providers is extremely low, which signals that the companies that work with >> that's what he did. This guy down here, douchebags, >> them are satisfied with the results they provide. Modern tools are able to use technology like machine learning and advanced results based algorithms to use data in ways that would never be possible with human intuition alone. Do you >> again? Also too, >> YouTube algorithms this video to you.
>> When has collecting the data served you?
When's the last time you can think of and maybe there is some small ways where it actually does help you >> because it knew you had an interest in finance and business. It knew that you may have watched my videos or videos like mine before and when you did click on those videos you watched them for longer than you watched videos on other topics >> and that's what he's that's what Crrip was talking about and that's um he just this guy kind of answered my question.
>> YouTube is an algorithm that is using the data at its disposal to deliver the result of maximum watch time on the platform. If YouTube gets more watch time, it can deliver more ads and collect more data.
>> Yeah, >> advanced algorithms like YouTube's are now accessible to all companies.
>> So, here's one of the other major points that I wanted to say that that has to do with uh your attention being valuable because that's more of my point on here, your attention, because your attention is really what where they're getting the data from. You know, it's what you're looking at, what you're doing, things like that. So if you are giving your attention to let's say you decide to listen to this show which is a good choice instead of scrolling. We'll just say that let's say you decide to listen to this show three t three times a week and it's a two-hour thing but you didn't scroll when you're doing it and stuff like that. that will increase your attention span because what what do you think what do you think you take in better information if I look at like 90 short things scrolling that are all like a minute and a half long or if I watched one thing for you know two hours or something like that. So you your attention it's not fragmented and going all over the place. you only have so many like attention units that you can process at one time. So, um, in other words, like if you're trying to, you know, that's why some people need like less stimulation. They want the room quiet and the lighting a certain way and stuff like that so they can really focus down and not have any other distractions around. Like, we live in a world of a ton of distractions.
And that's basically what ADHD and stuff is for a lot of people. There's just so much distractions going on at all times.
And we're we're used to living that way where we're not we're not in the moment. We're not present. We're not just able to just be. Um this is why we're seeing a lot of women not be as peaceful to be around and and have uh any serenity serenity to them because they're they're scatterbrain. They're thinking about so many things and they're stressing and stuff like that.
You know, we we're chewing bubble gum.
We're drinking coffees, the ice coffee.
We're hitting vapes. We're we're watching Tik Tok. The radio's on. Other music is on. A dog is there. Kid is doing this and this and that. The like your attention is is holds the key to a lot. So maybe we need to make sure that we are not giving our attention away like a cheap 304.
you know um you should be giving your attention to like this program >> as much as possible >> to data service provider >> so I'm not telling anyone what to do I'm just giving an example how it cuts your attention up essentially >> enabling more companies to effectively cash in on their data >> imagine like your grandpa or something looking at this it would be so much even like here this is perfect actually even Here you see so many so many pictures that's so much stimulation within stimulation within stimulation within stimulation that when you scroll through things you never I don't know process it deeply or or think about it. You just kind of like MP everything becomes like an MPC to you sort of in a way because you can't you know focus on anything. It's really overwhelming. Like a lot of this stuff is actually can be really overwhelming.
>> New tools can also help clean up messy data. Having a billion data points means nothing if it's not organized into a usable format. As companies >> where the data centers will come in >> migrated their data between different databases, formats would regularly be changed, lost or duplicated. This made much of it unusable without having people go back through millions of entries and correct everything manually.
Modern tools can fix a lot of these problems without human intervention and make different data sources work together in one.
>> These data centers are huge, guys.
Like look at this picture right here.
What does this remind you of? I want you guys to think outside the box. Put in put in the chat what this maybe reminds you of. Certain movie like this is almost like those Matrix pods. You know in a sense, you know what I'm saying? like this is this pretty soon you're going to be like, "Well, you can work at the data center, but why don't you just sleep in the pod?
You're going to be loving the pod. I might start investing in like pod companies.
Just listen to a podcast in the pod and you'll love it." Actually, >> central database.
>> Somehow you'll actually think it's dope.
>> The game developer EA gets data coming from Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, Nintendo, and their in-house distribution platform, Origin. All of these platforms send user data back to EA in different formats, which makes >> I mean, even just knowing somebody's age and demographic uh can be a lot, you know, and where they're from.
Um, Secret, you've lived in a couple other countries um before and and places like DR and stuff. Mhm.
>> You you would say that a lot of those people have a lot of different patterns that are So if you had I don't know if you had to sell one thing in France and then sell something else to someone in like >> Dominican Republic or something like what would you be doing different?
>> Yeah. To Yeah. Because you got so >> in regards to this you know this topic.
>> Yeah. So even with France, um you know, keep in mind, you know, over there they have like month-long vacations. They take um you know, two-hour lunches and everything along those lines.
>> Really?
>> Oh, yeah. Um and >> holy crap.
>> And so um you know, wine back when I lived out their w a bottle of wine was cheaper than a bottle of Avon. And so yeah, you're right. um their their commercials, their advertising. The way you would advertise to um someone over in France is totally different than where you would advertise to someone in Dominican Republic.
>> Um and and vice versa. We we have we have we have we have um different sense of humor. We value different things. Um and on top of that, you know, it's it's it's night and day. It's it is night and day. I mean, yes, we're all humans and stuff like that, but culturally >> Yeah. Yeah. Especially to like sales.
So, I'm sure sales people did want it.
This is some type of Alec Ballwin character. He's like, I want to know everything about these people.
I want to play that um more of that movie, but when I played it before, I got a whole bunch of copyright strikes and stuff.
>> You're serious?
Yeah, I'll try it again because maybe I just let it play too long because I was only playing small parts of it. But uh because I've been wanting to use that again. So let me try it again.
>> But we even but even when you think about it, that was only like maybe what three minute clip, four minute clip and we we transformed it to like over a half hour 45.
>> We transformed it. Um and so but maybe maybe because it was the movie or something like that. I'm not sure. I think it's because it was like a movie.
Yeah.
>> Okay.
>> U because I might >> Ah, okay. Yeah.
>> Yeah. Probably because it was a movie.
Um it's not like, you know, someone >> like someone doing >> someone commenting or doing a reaction video to what you're talking about and they and they transformed it.
>> Yeah. No, the whole movie I think is on Netflix and or on the platform for free.
Exactly. Anyways. Yeah.
Um, so anyways, I'll I'll try to find that. I'll let this play >> without manually changing formats.
>> Like he one of the things he says he's like attention, interest, decision, action. I think what's he saying first?
Attention. Attention, attention, attention. It it's it's it's really important. And you hold the key to your own attention. You don't have to hoe it out to slop >> to play nice with one another or using a tool to do the same thing. EA actually uses Snowflake to monitor things like how long users play certain games, what modes create the highest player engage.
Also too, um, what they have now, um, in certain cars, it'll literally record your face all the time because it wants to see if you're looking at the road or if you took your hands off the road. And so actually be recording your face like all the time just and you're just driving.
agement, how to most effectively push microtransactions, and the right balance of skills-based matchmaking to keep giving players the right amount of dopamine. The driven algorithm that recommended you this video to keep you engaged with the YouTube platform is the same as the matchmaking algorithms that decide your teams in online games. They aim to keep you engaged by making sure you aren't winning everything and getting bored. But you are also not getting destroyed every round and rage quitting. In addition to improving user engagement and spending, using data can also help companies like EA cut down on cost by predicting server usage and only just having enough available to meet demand. You might hate them.
>> Yeah. So, they're just trying to That is a justification. I guess that did help save them some money, >> but these tools make companies like EA a lot of money, and they have all been fine-tuned by mountains of data used effectively by off-the-shelf tools. If this so far has sounded a bit too big brother for your liking, it gets a lot worse. User data has become highly valuable, cheap to store and yeah, see the world's most valuable resource is no longer oil but data.
Data is, you know, a receipt of your attention.
That's what it is essentially.
>> Easy to sell. In other words, it's pretty much become a new type of currency, one that is impossible to tax and can be spent as many times as a company wants. One of the most lucrative strategy.
>> And that should have just been, see this back here too? That should just be dollars cuz that's what they print.
That's basically what they do right now.
Anyways, >> he wants one of the most lucrative strategies to monetize this data is used by hedge funds. Hedge funds have been quietly buying cons.
>> Again, who are hedge funds? or you know some rich dude who just you know probably you know manipulates the market >> credit and debit card transaction data >> or it's Ivy League level stuff I guess I'll say that >> which retailers are outpacing or underperforming their earnings projections the hedge funds will buy or short the companies ahead of public announcements profiting off the shift in share price >> and so here's another thing too is that um these are all companies competing with each other. So, they're all trying to, you know, gobble up the data as fast they can, as best they can, and stuff.
So, private industry is driving a lot of the demand for this, and they get pretty crazy with what they can do. Um, so I like having not a ton of regulations, but when it's when it's stuff like this, this is almost like a utility thing, I think government should step in more.
Um, Bill Gates recently bought like Three-Mile Island to to use nuclear power, one in Pennsylvania. I've actually like ridden a motorcycle to there and stuff like that. Um, and I think Jeff Bezos also is getting uh his own nuclear plant because they're they're using it to power AI. So, no, the environmental people didn't really care when they went to do that. follows these transactions. Transaction data providers charge millions of dollars a year for access to the real-time databases. Some banks sell this data directly through private agreements with hedge funds and others go through service providers like Bloomberg Second Measure.
>> So, wait a minute. No, no, no, no. They sell the data. You don't get any you don't get any of that money. You don't get your clip your coin clip of it. They clip your co they give your data and they clip off that, but you can't clip off what they get.
>> Banks sell this data directly >> and they'll do this under the table. to say, "Oh, we actually signed for this.
It's in the fine print here on page 270." Sir, you you signed it on the contract. I'm sure you read it over, right?
>> Through private agreements with hedge funds and others go through service providers like Bloomberg Second Measure, which is a subscription on top of a regular Bloomberg terminal subscription, which already costs $24,000 a year.
>> So, that's part of the uh money side of it.
And I want Well, actually to complete the video, >> hedge funds will even pay a large premium to be the exclusive purchaser of customer data so that they can make profitable trades based on information that is technically public but nobody else has. Major hedge funds will also subscribe to multiple data providers to ensure they are getting a comprehensive overview of customer activity before even the companies themselves.
>> Yeah. See, I've never been able to work in like office setting like this.
Um, like I haven't I've never I don't really have a ton of experience in the corporate world. I mean, I do work at, you know, corporate places and I'm, you know, conduct myself as a professional and whatnot, but not like inside these offices for a long amount of time and stuff. Um, and one of, and speaking of attention, one of my good friends, well that works for me and stuff like that, but he also has a corporate job. He told me that in these offices, they absolutely love fantasy football. He said like fantasy football is like a religion to them and stuff and they just they'll like spend more time worrying about fantasy football than like actually doing work.
Um, in a lot of these corporate jobs, they kind of want you to like like I told my friend because he was like trying to actually like bring new ideas in and like there he was getting pissed that they were only making 10 6% but he made a lot more in his projects and a lot of people in the corporate world like I don't really care. I'm already getting paid. So like he's like the lack of giving a shit and the Tylenol brain it's like a it's like a hindrance on a bunch of stuff.
It's not a strategy that is going to work for someone with a Robin Hood account and a few thousand, but it's been incredibly profitable for the firms that can pay to play. Hedge funds have some dirty tricks to generate big returns, but they have nothing on the guys that operate in the world of venture capital. But to find out how these guys still make money after investing in So um I also wanted to look at this too.
Where is it?
uh news thing about Yes. This right here because this this is also going with my uh attention theme.
>> New this evening on Tampa Bay Tonight.
Technology impacts many parts of our lives, but now ADD and ADHD cases are on the rise.
Let me just um do this.
So go to aderall speed.
And many believe the overuse of technology may be to blame. So I speak to a licensed clinical social worker about how cell phones and tablets affect daily brain function and spike dopamine hits especially in children.
>> So the way that I treat ADHD is that it's not so much something we're looking to cure, it's something that we're looking to manage. Licensed clinical social worker Joshua Goldman says being diagnosed with ADHD can be due to genetic factors, but spending time on social media can also increase the chances of the condition developing faster.
>> People just able to scroll through >> Yeah. See, it's too much stimulation.
Your brain is not designed to be seeing hundreds of dog picks and your grandma like to see to see a dog pick a cat pick. Your family's here. Um, your girlfriend's here.
Um, your friend's dog is here. There's a text message here. There's another thing here. Um, and it's playing music.
It's It's a lot >> things quickly, short little clips. And >> we're so used to like living this way that we we've, you know, this essentially the phone like scrolling like this. It's almost imagine it like a hamster wheel thing.
It's like a hamster wheel of your attention to just a lot of times dumb shit.
>> This quick dopamine hits that really the brain wasn't designed for.
>> One's mental well-being may also play a role in getting properly diagnosed. Some people actually think that they have ADHD, but they may actually be suffering more from anxiety and depression because um symptoms uh of inattention, difficulty focusing can also be um symptomatic of anxiety and depression.
>> Yeah. But sometimes they're just also cooked too.
>> But Goldman warns, if you have ADHD, don't rely solely on medication to help you manage your symptoms. Address the root. See how they love like just they just love showing you like see these expensive pills we are the drug dealer to you peasants.
You know what I'm saying? Like it's just I don't know why the news does this.
Like you know pharmacists are not in there like mixing chemicals and stuff either by the way. They just are just like making you wait. In the medical industry they love to like make you wait. You must wait peasant as we gatekeep more shit and more information and make a moat around it. It's it's like a moat everywhere >> the issue instead.
>> I absolutely think that there are holistic >> Sorry a little bit. I I kind of emoted there. I got a little emote and allic um and therapeutic non-farmacological methods that are just as helpful if not more helpful because they're setting you up for a lifetime of being able to better manage these symptoms. So what do those holistic methods include?
>> Comes from um strengthening your mind through mindfulness and other >> listening to snowboard Joe's 98 program >> cognitive behavioral techniques. It comes from lifestyle changes and it's really a commitment to >> and cutting out bullshit is just a lot of it too. Look at this nice chemtrails through through this guy right here.
That's what they ended on >> for all well-being.
Oops.
That's not what I'm trying to watch right now. Um, so this is um I want to play something from a comedian that I really like called Doug Stanh Hope. And this is like a a drawing that um is on this guy's video right here. Um I just want to give him credit.
Uh Johnny 6. So, um, thank you.
I'll subscribe to him and, um, play this right here. Let me just check the chat as well.
Thank you, Kan. Appreciate that.
This guy put um, how 2000 meets the matrix. Yeah, when we were looking at that data data server, that's basically what it was like for sure.
Julis is here. Hello. Welcome.
So, um, what does this have to do to it for attention? Uh, I'll actually let it play for a second.
>> All the drugs that are even popular anymore, all the dummy drugs, all the drugs that make you more >> Hosak. So, that was Hosak. boring all the mood stabiliz >> are anti-depressant. Everyone's got some mental disorder they've been diagnosed with and they take a fucking pill. I They push them on me all the time. I got ruin so many relationships cuz I Yeah, I fuck cuz I think I fucking think all the time. Sorry. Oh jeez. You think it's ADD? NO, IT'S NOT ADD. I'M THINKING I'm thinking about A LOT OF STUFF.
THAT'S NOT ADD. YEAH, I STUTTER a lot and I fuck stuff up, but that's cuz I'm always thinking, well, you're not listening to ME CUZ I'M THINKING ABOUT SOMETHING THAT'S MORE INTERESTING THAN YOU. I'M TRYING TO I'M TRYING TO BUILD A A PERFECT UTOPIAN SOCIETY IN MY HEAD.
AND WHAT ARE YOU TALKING TO ME?
>> And this guy Doug Stanho uh is a very funny comedian. Uh this is like a really good comedy special. This is just like a I don't know like a cartoon representation of it. But what he's going to start to say is, you know, um um basically why why why are there some drugs like aderall and stuff created?
Because it that also helps them like monitor your attention and take control of it too. So, for example, like aderall is kind of used in doing things that sucks for long periods of time. If it's something you love to do, you generally don't need to take like aderall and other stuff like that for it >> about bowling or what I and I do. I have a head that won't shut the fuck up.
So, where do the ideas come from? Do you have a a head like that? Do you have the brain that just won't shut the fuck up all the time?
You learn to work with it.
I AM NOT TAKING FUCKING MEDICATION FOR IT. THAT'S ALSO WHERE THE IDEAS COME FROM. I'LL JUST POUR SOME ALCOHOL on that when it happens and try to even it out. You work with your problems. Fuck it. Everyone's taking pills just cuz you're afraid of standing out. Or I was terrified when my doctor told me that I had a unique and interesting personality trait.
But then he told me about new Zolaf >> again. It's Holofac. And I just take >> three pills a day and I blend into this fucking horrible inbredad corporate landscape and I don't care.
So that's that's what he's trying to say. That that's where this this is related to your attention. Your attention is so valuable that they have to give you a drug so they can keep it going.
Um even more. You know what I'm saying?
They'll they'll legalize any drug so long as that drug keeps you producing.
That's all they give a shit about is production. You're kicking out enough boxes at the plant. Well, go whatever keeps you doing that. Keeps you vaguely content sitting in a cubicle. Go ahead.
FDA approved.
>> That's true. That's what they're doing with anti-depressants and aderall.
Aderall is like meth light. So they get they give you a lot of these drugs to just make you keep like doing kind of like drifting and doing like bullshit.
>> I have a job where I alphabetize insurance forms 45 hours a week and I noticed I couldn't concentrate so well on my job. So my doctor put me on Adderall and now I can just breeze through my workday. I don't even notice that my empty life is being pissed away underneath fluorescent tubes. I have no highs or lows. I have no good stories.
I'm just But I'm getting a lot of stuff done. I'm probably the most boring person I know. But look at me produce. I just go A B CDE E F G H I J K. I'm going to be you're never going to take a pill for that. You're not concentrating because that's fucking boring. And that's a natural reaction to boring. Don't concentrate.
>> Exactly. So that's what I'm trying to say. when it's something that you generally like, you don't have a problem concentrating on it. So, a lot of, you know, um, our attention is scrambled by like other meaningless bullshit um, distractions that come up and everything. So, like that's what I'm saying. your attention that you control also can help it so you don't go down a rabbit hole of something really stupid or you know what I'm saying like if you're just scrolling all the time and stuff like that it's really actually kind of crazy I think that had a problem or just the sound ended.
Um, hang on a second because I had another video that I wanted to watch on this right here.
Um, >> yeah, >> they're not after your money. They're after this. We live in an era where everything you could ever desire is readily available. So here's another thing too like I want to make sure that I speak about the topic. I don't want to just make sure I watch other uh videos.
Um so right here in this image sometimes the images say more this probably looks like it's AI image or something like that but either way this can be a realistic image in some ways. Uh everyone does have you know some people have literally three pieces of tech on them. a smart watch, a phone, and then probably a tablet or laptop that is then in their backpack or, you know, carrying it to work or whatever. Um, so that's not completely far-fetched. And one of the problems of that is we now don't interact with people the same in a face-toface manner as we did because the phone is like a moat to the to getting to someone's attention in a sense and it's like a barrier or it's a copout can be like well I'm just looking at my phone so I'm not like paying attention to what's around me and whatnot. So that's why some people like don't even say hi to each other that much.
>> As a matter of fact, um yesterday I was at um churches I was at church's chicken and >> well well and and by the way yesterday was not a Sunday.
I'm being honest here. I'm being honest here.
>> Yeah.
>> And so I'm at the light and this is like a long behind light. And so I'm I'm looking at the parking lot because this is a small this is a small um restaurant and it gets packed real fast. And so I'm thinking, yo, I picked the right time to go. There was very few cars in there.
And while I'm waiting, there's like two cars left. So I'm like, great. And so I go and the light finally turns green. I pull into the parking lot and as soon as I'm pulling out this chick gets out the car. Now mind you, I'm sitting there watching for like she was like literally this like was like literally almost five minutes. Like I just missed it and and she and soon as soon she goes jump in line and mind she there was no one in line. So she goes in and so I wait for her and so she orders her food. I go order mines. The point I'm trying to make is she then sits in the corner and she's on her phone. There was like two and then this other woman she's on her phone and the two men well with me makes three. None of us are on our cell phones. You know, two of the guys are talking. I'm sitting away from my food.
But these two women were glued to their phone. So >> Exactly. Yeah. Like a waiting room scenario where that will always happen.
>> Oh, it gets even crazier. So then the woman gets her food, the girl that was waiting for me, um, who she was cute, but she had too many she had she had a full sleeve and a full leg full of tattoos, but that's another story. But as soon as she gets her food, she gets her food like a whole minute, two minutes before I do. She goes get in her car and turns it on. And so, and then I get my food. And when I get in my car, she's still in her car. And then I go drive off. I'm at the light. She's still in her car. And I waited like two, three minutes for like the turn. It turned, she's still in her car. So literally, and so you know, she was on her phone the whole time.
>> Literally sat in her parking lot for several minutes to before she got to order her food, saw me pull up, ran, jumped in, made her order, and then as soon as she got her food, instead of leaving, sat in her car for another several minutes, which you know, she was on her phone.
>> Yeah.
>> And it just had me thinking that all the women, these women stay on their phones, they're glued to it.
>> Exactly. Yeah. It's It's like I don't know. If you just walked down the street and said hello to somebody, they would kind of like have an anxiety because they're not some of these people that especially once they're able to work from home for a while. They're kind of like very shy in person sometimes.
Um, and I I'm I'm a kind of a shy person sometimes, but I can't be, you know, to talk to customers and stuff like that.
But, um, you start to see that people are better at they always want to communicate through a screen, I guess, more than in person sometimes.
Sometimes, but I'm just saying when you say hi to them, sometimes it'll like break their brain if you stop and said, "Hey, hello." um in the grocery store or something because some people are just so like zoned out.
>> Excuse me.
>> With a few taps of a screen, you can access a vast universe of entertainment, information, and >> especially women, to be honest.
>> Interaction. It's convenient, entertaining, and undeniably addictive.
However, there's a hidden cost to this lifestyle. What if I told you that these platforms aren't just after your money, but something far more valuable? Your attention. Your attention is the currency they crave and they're willing to do whatever it takes to get it.
Welcome to the era where your attention is being >> some creepy AI photos sort of in a way.
Yeah, I don't want to like focus on too much what that is saying about but your your attention is is basically hunted. If I'm holding your attention, I can sell you more things basically.
But and you know something and for the men, you know, that's one of my red flags. A woman that can't stay off her damn phone, if every time you turn around, she's glued to her phone. Um, that's one of my red flags.
>> Yeah, exactly. That's what I'm saying.
They can't be in the moment and be peaceful because their mind is elsewhere at all times. Like, this is a thing, too. Um, people talk a lot about like uh having peace of mind and having no anxiety and stuff is just like really being in the moment. These people can't they don't know how to be in the moment. They can't go into a waiting room and just sit there and not be on their phone and not have a I mean maybe I guess like an old magazine, but they can actually just sit there and be calm, relax, kind of enjoy it.
Um, a lot of people can't really do that. uh especially a lot of women because they have all this external stimulation that gives them a little sense of dopamine and drama. They can get a drama fix on it too. So there and most people are more connected in the online world than the real world which is maybe not the worst thing and just how it's going. But um I think people are ve are also becoming kind of numb from these prescription drugs and everything like that as well where they're just kind of >> I guess just like checked out I guess.
>> And I actually disagree with you. Well, I don't know if I Well, maybe disagree is not the right word to use, but with what we do. So, here's the thing. When we're online, it's about community. It's about thought. It's It's us interacting.
It's us >> with them. It's about being a thought.
>> Exa Exactly.
>> But it is though actually because THEY DON'T THINK ABOUT ANYTHING ELSE. But it kind of is. But you're right. It is. I guess it is a different paradigm because they look at it like that. like we are literally talking about um important subjects. We're talking about things that make us more aware. We're talking about things that can improve our quality of life. We're talking about things that can give us additional skills. Um and so no, I think so us being online and us being on YouTube, totally different mindset.
>> Yeah, I guess so. Yeah. Yeah.
>> Yeah. Baller on a budget. Eight for eight and it's good to look I'm not afraid to go for a discount. I will put a coupon.
>> Oh, that's that's all good. I I think it's awesome.
>> In today's episode, we're going to navigate through the digital mastrom, uncover the tactics employed by big tech, and most importantly, equip you with the tools. Again too, I want I also don't want to blame I don't want to try to like blame this all on big tech and AI and stuff. It's our personal choice what we do with our attention period.
So you know also certain women and neighbors and stuff people who just want to like take up your time to do to do something stupid or you know certain customers certain customers are time wasters.
Uh in business there are people who are just simply time wasters too. Um you know I'll be honest sometimes some like you know um Indian customers they just go out and get like 97 bids and they're going to be like they're going to just they always want to like barter. sns are just like this is going to be some guy who's cheap and gonna try to you know nickel and dime me to get the price down and like I think I could just get an easier customer somewhere else because sometimes and I don't think that will have the guy will have any loyalty with using me again so sometimes that's how um people are to work with like Indian customers and so like it's not that I don't want to do the work but the extra attention that customer takes for me to make it work cost me in another area where I could have worked on a different customer or something, too. So, women take your time, too. Um, and if they're giving you good time and you know you like them, that's a good that's the best use of your attention. But I think a lot of people aren't giving good attention to each other because it's they're only getting leftovers from all the swiping they've done and stuff like that.
Um, nice eager have had the family meal.
Nice.
So, um, you know, and another thing too, like I'm not saying everything is robbing your attention. Some people if they have a project or a hobby that they like to do, you know, then they can like listen to this in the background. but do it, you know, or you know, sometimes people need a hobby and put their attention into that and like, you know, gardening or something else where it's not always, you know, um screen related like so your attention is down to you. It's we can't just blame it like all big tech and and stuff like you know, we it's it's really on us. So maybe this summer think about how to like slow it down and um you know besides listening to this show, but then just tune everything else out, but like we don't need to overstimulate oursel >> to protect yourself in this neurological warfare. This is more than just a call to action. It's a wakeup call. It's a clarion call for those ready to reclaim their minds. Are you ready to join us?
But before we >> I don't know. This is someone else's thing that they made. I don't know if I really want to watch that. Um I do want to find this um Glengary Glenn Ross thing though.
In fact, in this movie he says a uh Patel customer um because which is saying an Indian one saying like oh they're they're actually uh difficult.
So let me go to this right here for a second.
I think this is it.
Yes. Yes. Pay attention to what he's saying here. And this is going to be linked to how I was saying attention and emotion can make an action. So, actually, let me go put this up. This is uh one of the things that I typed in near the top here.
Um, >> and you may want to play that one and a half times speed or something.
>> Yeah, I'll do something like that. Yeah, this time I'm trying to find where I put like a T.
Yeah, this right here. This right here.
So, this is another almost take on it because I was trying to say this is I'm trying to make this episode about attention because I like So, that's why I'm showing this here, not really for sales per se. Like attention plus emotions sometimes can equal an action.
uh especially, you know, well, for anybody because that it kind of triggers them to go like take some action.
Uh ideally, they almost want it to be sort of fear-based, too. Um but I don't know. We shouldn't actually say that. Um you know, you don't want to like you want them to want to do something.
I'll just play it like this. A B C A always B C closing always be closing.
See a AI da is the other one that I wanted to talk about.
>> Always be close.
>> Commenting people.
>> AIA.
Attention. Interest.
>> Yes. Attention. Interest.
>> Decision. Action. Attention. Do I have your attention? Interest. Are you interested? I know you are. Cuz it's fuck or walk. You close or you hit the bricks. Decision. Have you made your decision for Christ in action?
>> That's all we need to know.
>> AIA, get out there. You got the prospects coming in. You think they came in to get out of the rain? A guy don't walk on the lot unless he wants to buy.
But this So this Alec Baldwin guy is some guy in in the tech companies right now trying to get as much data as possible.
um you know, he's going to see always be collecting data. Like that's that's that's kind of what's happening right now out there. Uh because they're small businesses and they want to, you know, I mean, not small businesses, but they're they're private businesses that want to have a monopoly over something >> sitting out there waiting to give you their money. Are you going to take it?
So, that's what I wanted to say about the attention part >> and >> yeah, that and that that's going to be my that's going to be my new um pickup line, you know, when I got to hit the place or in the car.
>> Buckle.
>> Buckle walk.
>> Buckle walk.
>> Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I I didn't want to get off on a sales tangent. Um, I did want to say make sure that it's about like attention here. Um, so like another thing too, like reading a book is one thing that could garner attention or takes, you know, attention to to get um I mean to accomplish.
Um, I don't know. I would say like doing any type of endurance sport or kind of maybe like running um hiking things you know things where it maybe takes a long time to do it maybe builds your attention as well.
Um let me try playing some of this Alec Baldwin thing again because this guy wants attention.
He's get garnering her attention.
A B C A always B C closing always.
>> Which is good. We got to go over this like once a month on here and remind you fucks. Always be get out there and always be closing and stuff like that.
Hustle like um every salesperson needs to hear this now and then.
>> Closing. Always be closing.
A I D Attention.
Interest decision. Action. Attention. Do I have your attention? Interest. Are you interested? I know you are, cuz it's fuck or walk. You close or you hit the bricks. Decision. Have you made your decision for Christ?
An action.
AIA. Get out there. You got the prospects coming in. You think they came in to get out of the rain? A guy don't walk on the lot lest he wants to buy.
They're sitting out there waiting to give you their money. Are you going to take it?
>> Are you mad enough to take it?
Incredible.
>> What's the problem, pal? You, Moss, you're such a hero. You're so rich. How come you're coming down here and waste your time with such a bunch of bums?
Again, this is good to see because um this guy is actually helping you, trying to help you.
Like we like we need this guy to if you're a small business person or something, you need to be this guy. Like you need to be reminded to be this guy now and then uh to sell like anything.
Not be this guy, but to always be closing.
Um, you know, if you guys have side hustles and other stuff like that or you eventually want to work for yourself, you got to always be closing just to survive. Just even to survive, you got to always be closing.
>> You see this watch?
>> This is important too right here. I don't um not about sales, but why do why do you say you see this watch? This is why materialism is the god here. You'll see.
>> Have you seen this watch?
>> Yeah.
>> That watch costs more than your car.
I made $970,000 last year. How much you make?
You see, pal, that's who I am. And you're nothing.
Nice guy. I don't give a shit. Good father. Fuck you. will go home and play with your kids.
>> Go home and play with your stepkids.
>> You want to work here? Close.
>> Go home and play with your step kids.
>> Play with your kids. You want to work here? Close.
Not cool. Snowboard. Not cool.
>> Think not cool.
I I I used to be a I used to be a step crash duck. Not cool.
>> That hurt.
>> How can you TAKE THE ABUSE >> OF BEING A STEPDAD? How can you take the abuse of being a stepdad?
>> You don't like it? Leave.
I can go out.
>> That's also part of part of the whole attention thing too.
Who you give attention to, you end up in your life more, you end up like seeing them more and stuff in a sense. Um, you know, so um sometimes there's certain people who are just kind of like time wasters too.
And what he's saying like you don't like it, leave. Sometimes you need to do stuff like that around just people who are just not, you know, growing any better or do you just get sometimes just certain people you just get like kind of a bad vibe around and you just don't really want to deal with them. And um I think it might have actually been Warren. So we'll give Warren Buffett some credit uh here. I think he had a quote though saying if you want to be rich you have to get used to saying no a lot like that. It's there's something like that.
So, uh, which is kind of what he says like we we swing at the pitches we really like. So, it's got to be like like a like at least a couple billion dollar deal for Birkshire Hathaway to start, you know, investing in what you're doing and stuff like that.
that tonight the materials you got make myself $15,000 TONIGHT IN TWO HOURS. Can you can you >> So yeah, if you're starting your own business and stuff guys, you need to be this guy sometimes >> as a doesn't it doesn't mean in a mean way. It can be fun. You got to want to be fun and go to your buddy like always be closing and shit like that. That's like it's it's actually awesome. You need to have this now and then for we're going to have to watch this now and then as taking some medicine. As a matter of fact, um, back when I was an account back back when I was an account exec for Countrywide, I was in this broker shop and, um, and so part of my job was to, um, get these brokers to sell my loan products, you know, to sell loans and to send them to my company to originate. And so I was pitching I was pitching the product and this this was a shop that wasn't that I was having some challenges with and I went ahead and this guy was on a call and I went took the call and I I closed the mortgage. So, literally I'm I'm on the phone with with this prospect cold call and I sold and I literally sold it was like a quarter million half million dollar mortgage right there on the phone. And then after um I sold after I sold him um I transferred him over to the processor to um to process the transaction, order the appraisal, >> and as soon as I transferred the call, I stood up and I was like, "Now that's how you sell a fucking mortgage." Nice.
>> Nice.
>> And they they ended up being one of my gush. I like I can sell any any any of my products I can sell. That's how that's how you sell a fucking I mean ethan mortgage.
>> Nice. Nice.
>> Oh, that that was my That was my moment.
>> Talk to you guys about appearance. Okay.
Because most of you dress like shit. I don't know what your financial situation is and I don't want to know, but you got to get yourself at least one decent suit. Oh, this isn't the one that I wanted to go to. Uh, but we'll we'll let this play >> because we have a kind of a minimum level of aesthetic professionalism here that we have to maintain. In 3 months, you can outfit your whole closet. But for now, just get you something to hold you over. There's an important phrase we use here. I think it's time you all learned it.
Act as if. Do you understand what that means? Act as if you are the fucking president of this firm. Act as if you got a 9-in cock. Okay? act as if. And to do that properly, you need to at least look the part. So, go get dressed.
Secondly, it's time to get your series 7 books. Now, don't get nervous. If you study, you'll >> No, this this was um crip.
This is another sales one, too. So, sometimes just good to see these things >> have a selling mindset, too. It's just good to, you know, is is just to survive in this economy. You just need to like this is a basic thing.
>> I'm sorry, man. This must shit. I'm so sorry.
>> It's okay. Don't worry about it.
>> Fucking dumbass.
>> Get the fuck out of here.
>> What? Don't talk to me. Don't look at me. Just pick your ass up out of that Italian leather chair and get the fuck out of this room right now.
Come on, let's go. Schle out.
Did you ever have to like talk shit to any of them croup like that or like Well, you don't I don't have to say anything, I guess. But >> um cuz sometimes like I guess in these certain jobs people don't guess if you haven't had your own business you don't know how to really like sell or what it means. You don't like take it as serious. I guess um I think some people who have had their own business a little bit or have to do like be more of an entrepreneur always need to have a selling mindset because you could make money doing Go ahead.
>> Or your 100% or when your 100% commission or the majority of your Yeah.
is based off of um what you generate.
>> Exactly. Yeah. The commission is like huge. Yeah. So sometimes, but I'm saying um I think if it's the commission based, it is basically having your own business, you know, selling that. So you have to do it.
That's it.
We expect everyone here to treat their co-workers with a certain level of respect.
>> Okay, before we get started, I have one question. Has anyone here passed a series 7 exam?
>> I have a series 7 license.
>> Good for you. You can get out, too.
>> What? Why?
>> We don't hire brokers here. We train new ones.
>> That's it. Skippy, pack your shit. Let's go.
Now that's now that's a now that does make sense from one perspective, but that's also a definitely a red flag. Um, but go ahead. But yeah.
>> Yeah, this is this uh I don't know if you've seen this movie or not, The Boiler Room. It's a really good movie, actually.
And I think that um I'll just let it play.
>> Here's the deal. I'm not here to waste your time, okay? And I certainly hope you're not here to waste mine. So, I'm going to keep this short.
become an employee of this firm, you will make your first million within three years. Okay, I'm going to repeat that. You will make a million dollars within three years of your first day of employment at JT Marlin. There is no question as to whether or not you'll become a millionaire working here. The only question is how many times over.
You think I'm joking? I am not joking. I am a millionaire. It's weird thing to hear, right? tell you it's a weird thing to say. I am a fucking millionaire. I guess how old I am. 27. You know what that makes me here? A fucking senior citizen. This firm is entirely comprised of people your age, not mine. Lucky for me, I happen to be very fucking good at my job or I'd be out of one. You guys are the new blood. You're going to go home with the kessive. You are the future.
>> Remember guys, this is also what all these scammers and stuff do too. So people like this can like a very like sometimes con art con artist is like because it really is an art form and some people are the someone who's a very good con is a very very um charismatic convincing you know >> energetic type person to even be doing shit like that to sell anything.
Sometimes you kind of just need to be that way >> when it comes to sales and persuasion.
It is an art and a science.
>> It is. Yeah, it really is.
>> And um and so because we've all have heard, you know, he could sell ice to an Eskimo or he has the gift of gab >> and >> Yeah.
>> And so and for me, I you know, I I always had to sell. So even in school, you know, candy bar drives, um Christmas drives, whatever the case may be. I I I I've never Throughout my whole childhood, I never bought a bike. Um I didn't buy the first bike that I bought was a motorcycle because I always got free bikes um from these um sales drives. But when I learned the science behind sales, you know, why people would say yes to me or things it it just it it literally >> Yeah. And it's it's so many different scenarios to too. And it makes people easier to like deal with and make like ideally you want to make them happy, too. Like selling doesn't mean you go and like rip somebody off either.
Selling is like a better if it's like a win-win. Like I'm actually giving value to you and I'm get but I'm getting paid good for it too. So like making like people part of the way part of why the economy is so fragile is people don't have the ability to start um making money from just doing like uh I don't know be able to hustle and do some small things so they always will have like something that they can do. A lot of people kind of struggle with that because you need to, you know, be pretty handy, but you also need to know like uh how to sell jobs too and what you uh can take and you know, interacting in person a lot too. Uh so, but sales like even part of sales too is just sometimes uh people want to text a lot and stuff like that too. Uh and also it can be extremely cheap. So sales is um really like an art form.
>> Big swinging dicks of this firm. Now y'all look money hungry and that's good.
Anybody tells you money is the root of all evil doesn't fucking have any.
>> This next part's >> they say money can't buy happiness. Look at the fucking smile on my face. Ear to ear baby. You want details? Fine. I drive a Ferrari 355 Cabriolet.
What's up?
I have a ridiculous house in the South Fork. I have every toy you can possibly imagine. And best of all, kids, I am liquid. So, now you know what's possible. Let me tell you what's required.
You are required to work your fucking ass off at this firm. We want winners here, not pikers. A per walks at the bell. Piker asks how much vacation time you get in the first year.
>> I never really understood what is a per.
Do you know what that is? Secret.
>> Yeah, pretty much someone who just coast. Um you might have heard um there was this trend they were called quiet quitting when people just do the bare minimum to not >> what is what even is that like that's what I'm saying like if you're at work be serious about what you're doing instead of just like I don't know going through the motions all the time. It seems like that's a waste of your own time if you're not like into what you're doing I guess. So, I know for me, I'm at the stage, so I just don't got that dog in me no more. Um, I'm I'm at the point to where, you know, like I said, I'm looking to retire in the next two to five years. And so, you know, my goal I used to, you know, I used to always want to be in the top 10. Um, top 10%, always one of the top dogs. And now I'm at the point in my career where I'm just I'm just I just want to be in the middle of the pack. I'm not trying to be top dog and I'm not trying to be at the bottom of this the crap pile and so but yeah um but 20 years 10 15 years ago yeah you got to have that dog in you now I'm not the I'm not at the point where I'm trying to quiet quit either maybe know quiet quitting it's like come on like what are you really doing I guess I don't know >> vacation time people come and work at this firm for one to become filthy rich. That's it. We're not here to make friends. We're not saving the fucking manatees here, guys.
You want vacation time? Go teach third grade public school.
Okay.
First three months, the firmware as a trainee, you make $150 a week. After you're done training, you take the series 7. You pass that, you become a junior broker and you're opening accounts for your team leader. You open 40 accounts, start working for yourself.
Sky's the limit. Word or two about being a trainee, friends. Damn. And I think um is it still working on your YouTube?
This might have got taken down.
Is this still uh working guys on yours?
>> Parents, the other brokers, whoever, they're going to give you shit about it.
It's true. $150 a week, not a lot of money >> here. Um please hold.
Culture is the operating system.
Invisible architecture.
Silent instruction set running underneath civilization.
Culture is the operating system. Quiet in the background while the world keeps spinning. Invisible patterns shaping every instinct. Most people never stop long enough to think. Fashion, language, fear, ambition passed down like software with every tradition.
>> Exact like it was suspend. Damn. This is this is insane.
>> You may you may have to start a new stream. I don't Well, I don't know how that works though.
Uh yeah, I think it ended. Maybe it was from watching that um always be closing one.
Um maybe I'll just try making another one really quickly.
>> Okay, I'll jump in it.

Okay.
Um, let me make sure.
>> So when you get a chance, >> wait. Yeah, I think it >> is my consent. Most people never question the environment.
Everybody downloading social permission.
Building personalities through repetition. Screens blowing soft in the night vision. Turning human beings into algorithmic decisions. Everybody chasing digital affection. Created lifestyles for public inspection. Metrics replacing human connection. Validation loops become addiction. New cycles weaponize attention. Fear becomes profitable intervention. Outrage spreads faster than reflection. Division sold as audience retention.
Another version deep in the frame telling people who love and to blame. OS quietly rewrite and truth manufactur reality injected through the youth OS invisible command.
Most people never realize they been cities glowing cold in neon weather.
Everybody isolated together. Digital tribes forming forever but nobody really understands each other. The rich sell dreams of time. Everybody monetizing the human mind. Attention markets.
Human beings converted into data machines. But somewhere there is still an authentic.
You got to have a program.
Yeah. So, um uh I'm glad it still stayed and I want to actually um put it on something positive. I've been like digging this kind of track lately. So, um thanks for staying on. The stream kind of got disrupted. Um, so I'm going to see what that was. I think it was just maybe I was um playing that um Alec Baldwin one.

Okay. Right there.
>> Oh, no. I'll put on 304.
>> Okay. 304. This is I This is what I think happened to your finger.
So, let's test your flexibility.
Where's his glove?
>> Just lie back and relax.
>> Just breathe.
>> What movie was this?
>> Breathe through the pain.
>> Wait. Breathe through the pain.
>> I can't.
>> My goodness. You're tight.

The wrong the wrong trap.
Well, that note, I'm actually going to try to end on something somewhat positive and uplifting here.
>> Oh my god.
>> For yourself. TRUST ME ON THIS BECAUSE when something when you going to take some hits just living, the longer you live, something's going to happen to you or someone you care about.
>> Trust me on that. It's called life. It's called life.
But people who ARE SUCCESSFUL, THEY TAKE OWNERSHIP for their lives.
All of us are self-made.
But only the successful will admit it.
Only the successful will admit it.
People who are not successful, you know what they do? They'll blame their circumstances.
They blame society. They blame their conditions. They blame the government.
They're looking outside of themselves.
All of us are selfmade, but the successful will admit it. See, a guy named Robert Ruth wrote a book called Success Strategies of Little Pig. He said, "It's not what you don't have, it's what you think you need that keeps you from being successful, successful, happy, happy, and wealthy."
Let me bring it to you another way.
Dr. Cottage G. Woodson said, "If you can determine what a man shall think, you never have to concern yourself with what he will do."
Let me bring it to you another way. Late Minister Dwight Parrot said, "Even though we are born and made in the likeness and image of God and be given authority and dominion over everything on the face of the earth, we will never exercise authority and dominion over our lives until, listen up closely, until we exercise authority and dominion over what we are not.
Here's what I'm up to. I want to get past your mind. See, many of you the biggest challenge they face, the biggest challenge is your mind. Remember he said until we exercise over what we are not.
Remember what Dr. College Woodson said, the miseducation of the negro. If you can determine what a man shall think, you never have to concern yourself with what he will do. If you can make a man feel inferior, you never have to compel him to seek an inferior status, for he would seek it himself. And if you can make a man feel justly and outcast, never have to order him to go to the back door, he'll go without being told.
And if there's no door, his very nature will demand one. Very nature will demand one.
Now, suggest looking at just stick a pin in that. Stick a pin in that.
The biggest challenge that I have in talking to you right now is to get past your mind. That's the biggest challenge.
Why? Because your state of mind has produced the life that you have right now. State of mind has produced the life that you have right now.
Einstein said that thinking that has brought me this far has created some problems that this thinking can't solve.
