0:00Brothers welcome back listen we got to

0:02talk I mean is there any other way to

0:04put it other than we have to

0:06talk I don't know about you but I'm

0:11feeling pretty damn testy I mean there's

0:14some testosterone brewing in these

0:16macadamias down here so let me tell you

0:20uh intrusive

0:22thoughts every young man May stumble

0:24upon intrusive thoughts in his life

0:28where his mind feels like it's racing he

0:30can't focus in on the good maybe he's

0:33ruminating on the bad call it anxiety

0:37maybe you're thinking just nasty sexual

0:42perverse thoughts that don't seem like

0:44you the good news is they're not you

0:47maybe

0:48murderous maybe

0:51degenerate maybe violent maybe angry

0:54maybe

0:55sad thoughts maybe just daydreaming all

0:57the time you just catch yourself

0:58daydreaming well whatever it be thoughts

1:01are thoughts they're not real so doubt

1:03every thought because your thoughts are

1:06lik in the clouds you look up at the

1:07clouds you can do that right now look up

1:09at the clouds oh look a cloud wow where

1:12is that cloud in a few seconds it's

1:15moving okay imagine yourself looking

1:19down on a lifeguard pillar Tower

1:22whatever and you see the freaking clouds

1:25just down there moving they're not you

1:27dude they come in and they come out so

1:29never think that you are one of these

1:33clouds cuz you're not a cloud you're a

1:36man but it can be pretty tricky to deal

1:40with these intrusive thoughts what I

1:42have began to realize is that often

1:44intrusive thoughts come around when your

1:48focus has been tainted and when you

1:51allow yourself to

1:54participate in activities that make your

1:57mind scattered and shuffled

2:00one of the biggest ways to start to have

2:03intrusive thoughts is to subject

2:06yourself to complete the genery and not

2:10only that but

2:12Randomness this is probably the most uh

2:16competent way to

2:18allow introdu thoughts into your

2:21brain Doom

2:24scrolling social

2:26media uh countless you know noise you

2:30know no one wants to admit it dude no

2:32one wants to admit it but the violence

2:35of noise in this constant freaking

2:40just constant pumping of

2:43noise and frequencies into the

2:47brain like I cannot be the only one I

2:51have a distrust for music for media for

2:54movies for shows for all this BS you

2:58know why it's not because I'm skito

3:00maxing is because there is clearly I'm

3:03not in charge of this but I know who is

3:06in charge of it there's a lot of super

3:10wealthy people that are in charge of all

3:13of the stuff that you consume and I

3:16don't believe that they have my best

3:18interest in mind so I have a healthy

3:20mistrust I always have since I was a kid

3:23I would look at

3:24something maybe it came from I growing

3:27up in Sunday school you know be careful

3:29little ears what you

3:31hear be careful little eyes what you

3:35see you see too much perverseness it

3:38changes the inter workings of your mind

3:43dude if you see too much bad you fail to

3:47see and recognize the

3:50good so you're filled with

3:53anxiety you're filled with fear you have

3:55music pumping the emotions just this

3:58cycle just freaking amp you know keep

4:01going if you suffer with intrusive

4:04thoughts you have to take a step back in

4:07the high thumos Brotherhood I started an

4:10anti-rain rot campaign and it simply

4:14consisted of deleting social media

4:17deleting dating apps stop watching

4:20prawn what was the other ones uh I

4:24didn't even say limit music but now that

4:25I'm thinking about limit the freaking

4:27music man you there's no need for music

4:30all the time it is a drug the most

4:32widely accepted drug that is there on

4:34Earth you can't enter a grocery store or

4:36a gap pump your damn gas or go you know

4:40go anywhere and there's there's always

4:42music a restaurant everywhere the gym

4:45your headphones it's

4:48everywhere anti-brain Rock campaign jump

4:51roping reading uh in the morning reading

4:5410 pages a day beginning to reclaim this

4:59control over our

5:03lives I believe that for any man but

5:07especially a young man okay it is

5:11Paramount that you reclaim your

5:14Center that you reclaim your mind you

5:19have to become like James Allen

5:22said you have to become the master

5:25master gardener of your mind because

5:28nowadays there's a lot weeds are popping

5:30up and if no Gardener is there to

5:33maintain control they're going to

5:34overrun the

5:36garden if a man wants to do great things

5:40in life he has to

5:42First believe that he can do great

5:45things I think that was Michael Jordan

5:47who said that if someone wants to be

5:49great first you have to believe that you

5:51can be great at something he believed

5:53that he could be the best at

5:56basketball all right and I I think what

6:00happens is we forget to believe we

6:03forget to see because we see so much BS

6:07we hear so much BS we forget who we are

6:10and what we're about and what we

6:12actually want and you may not think this

6:15is a big deal dude but it is and I've

6:17heard from the guys in the group that

6:19upon starting this campaign upon

6:22deleting the shorts and deleting

6:23Instagram and the dating apps and now

6:25watching prawn and now listening to so

6:26much music and becoming spiritually fit

6:29but also mentally fit and physically fit

6:32and focusing on better things other than

6:35just BS like maybe listening to you know

6:39some CEOs that run companies listening

6:41to their podcast instead of freaking

6:43Andrew hubman for the hund time telling

6:45you to wash your hands between sets to

6:48get cold to increase hypertrophy by 75%

6:52and make sure you sleep because we all

6:54know we got to [ __ ] sleep how many

6:55more times you need to be told you need

6:56to sleep good dude like maybe not

7:00listening to Joe Rogan and Joo winick

7:02and and uh freaking David gogin you know

7:06stay hard man stay hard who's going to

7:08carry the boats no one dude there ain't

7:11no freaking

7:12boats there ain't no freaking boats when

7:15you're poor you can't even afford a boat

7:16you can't even afford a your damn uh

7:19car so everyone's worried and focused on

7:22the wrong thing listen to so much noise

7:25addicted to noise when really there's

7:28guys at the top good men that want to

7:31help you but no one's listening you can

7:33check these damn podcasts man these top

7:36investors telling you how they think how

7:39they evaluate a

7:41company there this get like hundreds of

7:44views like hundreds of views no one's

7:47listening to them you guys are worth

7:49millions CEOs that are running companies

7:52that that actually go on and and give a

7:55talk tell you what the the environment

7:58the the world is looking like no one's

8:02listening no one's like learning

8:05self-defense learning how to protect

8:07your loved ones the people in your life

8:09everyone's so focused on self they don't

8:12think about protecting the people they

8:16love furthering making Investments for

8:19the future planting a seed now so you

8:21know the future Generations have a tree

8:23to sit under have fruit to pick from

8:30so again these guys in the group they've

8:32told me man I started doing this and

8:34it's exactly what I needed my brain

8:35feels I feel more human and that's what

8:37we really try to get at need to feel

8:40more human reclaim that humanity and

8:43that Center of mind that core you know

8:46this if you've ever felt thrown off and

8:49you ever wanted to maybe dye your hair

8:52and get a bunch of tattoos for no damn

8:55reason if you ever wanted to do

8:57something completely stupid

9:00and if you have a bunch of anger and

9:02resentment and fear it's cuz you're not

9:05you you're not really you you don't

9:07actually know who you are so if you want

9:09to know who you are then you have to

9:11have a core because you have to get to

9:13know that core what is at the

9:16center but the more that you feed

9:18yourself content the more that you

9:22consume nonsense the more nonsense

9:25you're going to feel it's really that

9:26simple man it's really that simple so

9:30again I think that this what we're going

9:33to name it righteous

9:35living now I don't mean righteous in the

9:38sense of moral superiority over other

9:41people that are not living the way that

9:43you

9:44are righteous living is a way of living

9:48that is

9:49aligned

9:50with with getting to know yourself and

9:53who you want to be and the things you

9:56care about and the people you care about

9:58and then aligning your life

10:00to not constantly be sidetracked but

10:02being in

10:04alignment with who you are with what

10:06feel right with what feels right

10:10righteous living will greatly enhance

10:15your life righteous

10:17living not allowing yourself to be a

10:20degenerate to do all the dumb stuff to

10:22be prudent to be not not a goody goody

10:25chu but to be to be awake man to be

10:28awake to be hear to be able to see to be

10:34righteous to be a man you know to be

10:38happy with who you're becoming to feel

10:41strong this strength internally this

10:44Focus this dumo man this dumo this

10:48spiritedness this this goodness that

10:51emanates from you that can you know

10:53shake up things that can impact other
