[00:00:14]Just give us joint respect.

[00:00:21]Just grace respect to us. Something for goodness sakes.

[00:00:54]You're wasting water. You're making a noise. You're keeping everyone up.

[00:00:59]that it's a compulsion. I can't help it.

[00:01:02]>> WHY CAN'T YOU GET A better compulsion, Aiden?

[00:01:07]Like really?

[00:01:08]>> You know, we've spoken to you about this over and over again.

[00:01:13]>> I'm over it.

[00:01:14]>> No, really.

[00:01:46]Neuroplasticity, right?

[00:01:52]>> Think of your brain like Play-Doh. It is not this rigid fixed thing that is set into stone. It's actually constantly changing, molding, and reshaping itself based on what you do every day. This ability is called neuroplasticity. It's literally your brain's superpower. Most people think, well, my brain is just the way that it is now. I've been doing this thing for so long. That's just how it is. Nothing's going to change. But science has totally blown that idea out.

[00:02:17]>> That that that disease is called >> obsessivempulsive disorder.

[00:02:21]>> That right. It was with everything though. And he became an NCAA champion.

[00:02:24]Doesn't it make sense though that like those kind of things if you could channel him into something positive?

[00:02:30]>> Could you imagine like an athlete >> that's like that?

[00:02:34]>> Yeah.

[00:02:34]>> Michael Jordan.

[00:02:35]>> I'm sure >> for as compulsive of a gambler as he is, that was his approach to basketball. So nobody could be greater.

[00:02:41]>> Yeah.

[00:02:42]>> Same thing.

[00:02:42]>> Same thing. Exact same thing. It's just one of them is dangerous. One of them will up your life and one of them will make you the goat.

[00:02:48]>> Will make you the goat. But the other side of it is it don't turn off.

[00:03:05]respect the way it was intended.

[00:03:20]Whoa. What is What is this?

[00:03:23]Come on, Aiden. You've always known.

[00:03:27]See, I'm just one of the paths that this boils down to.

[00:03:34]There's a few. There's a few, some better than others, but uh trust me, I'm the one you want to work with.

[00:03:42]Let me tell you something. And I'm the one that makes you do one extra rep in the gym.

[00:03:52]that makes you practice a guitar riff so much that your hands bleed just so you can get it right. I'm the guy. I'm the giza. I'm that pathway.

[00:04:06]So, you've done your research. You've heard about this neuroplasticity and you're wondering if you really want to escape this power.

[00:04:19]Think about those guys. Michael Jordan, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicola Tesla, Albert Einstein. They all had this and they didn't let it go. However, they didn't have this research. They didn't have this knowledge. Neuroplasticity.

[00:04:38]Don't you understand that this is your opportunity to isolate this power? Aiden, it's in your mind.

[00:04:49]Come on.

[00:04:51]I don't know what this is, but I'm looking at a clone of myself, so I'm going to go with it. Maybe I have gone insane. Let me ask you this, Mr. OCD, if that's what you are.

[00:05:06]Why should I trust you?

[00:05:09]You brought so much agony to my life. So much pain. I felt pain. I felt pain.

[00:05:18]And even with whatever plan this is supposed to be, I'm going to go insane.

[00:05:25]You know, Michael Jordan, gambler, aviator spiraling out of control.

[00:05:32]Loren's the same. So why should I go with you?

[00:05:36]You know, you could be some neurological parasite if if if if something like this is happening.

[00:05:48]Why should you trust me? Cuz I could just be some sort of neurological parasite.

[00:05:56]Whatever you think it could be a realistic alternative.

[00:06:02]That's stupid. Aiden, just take this situation how it is. Let me explain something to you. Yeah, maybe you shouldn't trust me.

[00:06:14]Maybe it will go bad. But you know what?

[00:06:17]Look at me.

[00:06:19]I am you.

[00:06:22]I am you and so much more.

[00:06:26]I am what Aiden Marsden could be. Think about it.

[00:06:32]With me, you never dropped the guitar.

[00:06:36]You never skipped the gym.

[00:06:39]You would be invincible.

[00:06:43]And that's what you're looking at.

[00:06:48]What you are is in my way cuz this is my life just as much as it is your life. Okay?

[00:07:04]Do you know what it's like to be caged in this corpse of what I could be? Cuz I'm Aiden Marsden.

[00:07:13]I'm the Aiden Marsden the world wants, the world would benefit from.

[00:07:21]Come on.

[00:07:24]You either work with me and we become great, spiral out at 60 or we both lose.

[00:07:40]Okay.

[00:07:43]I don't want to be like the rest of them and I definitely don't want to be less than.

[00:07:52]Walk with me and you will thrive.

[00:08:34]situations respect.

[00:08:57]Heat. Heat.

[00:09:19]Heat.

[00:09:38]Heat.

[00:09:44]Heat.

[00:09:58]Heat.

[00:10:27]Heat. Heat.
