My original last name is Owen; I am your systar in truth and will see you soon. I am goin' if it's Owen! Stay with us on Elvis Presley Boulevard when you travel to Memphis Tennessee. Our mutual acquaintance is Lonnie/Julie Lefkowitz, Hollywood Hills🎉Gratitude for you being you ,the good you do and the best of the rest of the day to you brother Owen
Owen is so right. I have been "homeless" before, living in my van with my wife and dog, driving up and down the California coast, hiking every day, going to the gym and beach every day, and eating large amounts of fruit while watching the sunset every night, and I felt richer than when I was making bank working for Lex Friedman as his video editor. (No shade to Lex.) I am now in the process of balancing those two lifestyles, but those memories I made, are worth more to me than gold.
Assuming this is all true... When you were homeless living in a van why were you wasting your time hiking every day, going to the beach every day, watching the sunset every night? Wasn't that time suppose to be spent making money, considering you had video editing skills. What made you think it was a better idea to spend your time gallivanting as a homeless man instead of focusing on making bank for you and your wife? I don't understand your thinking. You said you felt richer. Surely it's better to BE richer rather than "feel" richer
@@mateushj2021 I'm actually older than 15. Please explain to me why a married homeless man would much rather spend his time hiking rather than spend his time trying to earn money so that he can solve the problem of being homeless
@@simplyballing1592 because enjoying your life exploring building your body and appreciating nature with people you love will usually feel better in the moment than being singularly focused on making money unless you truly love what you do
After watching this video, I decided never to waste another minute of my life crapping, showering, eating or sleeping. So I stopped doing those things and much happier now. Thank you.
OG Owen follower here - this talk was possibly the best stuff I've seen from Owen in his whole career. To be honest, I found the first half to be quite elementary and was about closing the video, but around half way somewhere he switches it up and starts laying down some really powerful stuff. It feels like he's transitioning beautifully into a great spiritual teacher, here you can find many moments of truth sharing and pure positivity and encouragement. Owen I've always resonated with you, and feel like your best work is just starting. Hope to hang soon
At his core, he just wants to make people happy. At first, it was how he got happy, by getting laid. But then, we want more and he's evolved into that. It's less superficial, but still powerful. So while his early days are sketchy AF, you can't blame a guy for trying to make the world a better place in his own way. He's controversial because he's bizarre. I've seen conman, and evil - and this guy ain't it.
I’ve started watching since the PUA pickup /dating talks but he has transformed/transitioned into this wisened spiritually evolved next level bearded life guru and I think thats really impressive.
2:20:55 I agree with this deeply. You can experience joy and happiness for most of your days, but that is a very intentional and conscious practice. That being said, being happy does not translate to traditional forms of success, nor does it mean establishing a vast network of social connections. Ascetics and monks and even very poor fishermen can be some of the happiest people, but that's not what everyone desires from life. Some people can be fulfilled with meditating, being out in nature all of the time, mastering their craft, providing the very essentials for their families, and living a life of service. That is not most people, though.
1:33:22 A big issue that is not addressed here is that a lot of people don't actually know what they ultimately want. It's easy to identify experiences we don't desire to explore further, but a grammatical antonym does not give a clear vision or direction to move toward. For instance, suppose the example is "I don't want to be broke." Is the new direction "I want to be filthy rich and a trillionaire and to be my own boss"? Or is it "I want a stable job with an above market wage and guaranteed job security"? Or "I want to marry someone who pays my bills for me so that I don't have to work"? What if they all sound the same to you, and then as you are not compelled in any one direction, you don't do anything drastically different from before. Without clarity in direction, it's easy not to take any decisive action, and oftentimes, there is simply no clear goal or destination that we are like "Yes! That's exactly what I wanted and couldn't put into words. I will stop at nothing to get there and do that."

I like to take a different view of death. Yes the body dies. This body is just the vessel for this lifetime. I wanna keep it tuned up and healthy. I’m soon to be 46. Beat all the weaknesses like drugs cigs drinks. Over 4 years now. I just been on a rising up in life. To keep a positive mindset brings positive changes and the dream life I can feel it coming. I have switched from fight mode to enjoy mode. I don’t have to let fear control my life. I love seeing outside of the box. There’s so much more. ❤
Hell yes, more videos where you breakdown and talk about these underground topics, there are those of us out there that will listen and take these ideas and actually do critical thinking around why could this piece of information could be correct, the feeling my brain gets when I get the opportunity to listen to paradigm shifting information and then break it down to actually understand it and not just accept is as my new belief is a better high then any drug I have every taken Edit: I understand now why you cant just speak about these things
2:14:47 I have gone to bars for parties when I was younger and for Meetup events in my 30's and "improved my social skills." It was definitely out of my comfort zone, but again, those are not environments that suit me, and the skills from those interactions did not elevate my quality of life. They were a means to an end of meeting more people, but once the friendships I made ran their course as others were facing their own toxic life stressors and our friend group imploded, I went back to focusing on my own projects and work. Thankfully, I was meeting people in other environments as well, including volunteering and online courses, so I developed a greater tolerance for being around large groups of people for prolonged periods of time in a more relaxed state, but ultimately, it's not something I want to jump back into in crowded spaces with loud music and the smell of booze on people's breath. There are other venues that suit my interests more.
@@letsdomath1750 much gratitude to the path , always a good time to get in alignment. Always been an introvert never a partier etc , decided to socialize and it thru alot off... I do better in small organized settings...the lack of awareness and chaos in those spaces are not for me forsure
After watching the whole thing, I think that it resonates more with people who don't fit neatly into societal molds. I have done solo road trips out of my old minivan, driven across the US because I preferred the scenic route over a turbulent flight with TSA delays, and have couchsurfed around different countries in central Europe for 3 months during a self-funded 14-month sabbatical. These are not things most people would consider doing, and I get the same impression from your video, so I am not sure how much of an impact that type of message would have on general audiences. That being said, all of the national parks are next on my list.😁
Mindfulness meditation (e.g., The Mind Illuminated) is the best tool I've found to train the ability to find joy and fun in the present moment. Surprised Owen doesn't talk about it more.
What floozy. Advice: get a 80k a month house and pay for it with videos! Reality: nobody will rent you a 80k house without being able to pay cash for the entire lease. Even if you can do this you wont sell many videos and you will be broke. Why? Because your house is an investment you need a return on competing with people who own these houses by other means and will always be substantially cheaper. I could go on and on ripping him apart but there is no point and there is tons of idiots out there spouting pipe dreams.
1:29:28 That requires intellectual depth and curiosity that many people consider mentally taxing and not light and pleasant. Most people engage with such topics very sparingly, and celebrity gossip gets elevated much more readily because it's shocking and scandalous, but also a spectacle that does not involve them directly nor that requires active participation in the form of deep introspection and self-reflection.
I don't know what is with Owen, i'm following him since around 2016.. i've seen his transformation from pickup to more general hardcore brutally honest selfhelp.. it's crazy but he spits so much good stuff and facts it's like being high on cocaine everytime i watch and listen to him.. it's like he's bringing you back to the narrow road each time you're fucking up your life with negativity and timewasting like he's mentioning a lot : opportunitycost.. Thank you so much owen !!!
6:43 You can also just be neutral about taking a shower or using the toilet. These are things you do to take care of your body so that you can do things you enjoy greatly. If you really need to be hyperstimulated and enjoying every moment, there are ways to do that. Play music, watch something on your phone, daydream, etc. You can also just use that time as an opportunity to relax and not become fixated on not being there. Resistance will rob you of more joy than taking a crap.
2:23:59 I already knew about the Gates of the Arctic, and I definitely want to visit each and every one of the national parks, but when I Googled Nāpali Coast, the iconic mountainous shoreline on Kauaʻi’s North Shore, I gasped as the pictures took my breath away. It reminded me of Water World and Jurassic Park. I want to go there ASAP! I highly recommend Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia and Badlands National Park in South Dakota at sundown by yourself.
I spend about an hour showering, about 2 years left I get to be showering myself Lolol I love every minute of it 😂 I need to boost those numbers man, those are rookie numbers!!
1:07:33 Oh, I had similar experiences when driving through Utah. I could see parts of Bryce Canyon National Park from the overlooks on the highway. I was driving back to Columbus, OH by myself after a Las Vegas trip with my friend group at the time ended chaotically, lol. The GPS kept taking me into the Rocky Mountains for some reason, and I relented. It was sublime, and a transcendent experience. The bare earth was so colorful and vibrant, even without the exuberance of life. You could see mountains and desert basins, snow and sand, and a vast brilliant blue sky as dawn progressed. I was so grateful to be alive and to be born in North America and to be born on this planet. I have had other experiences like that in nature, but this is ultimately hippy talk. Most people don't care about any of that, lol. 🤣
It’s not hippy talk to realize how beautiful and amazing the world is. In fact studies show that being in nature is extremely beneficial for our mental health.
@@sexywarriorwomen Oh, for sure, I know the beauty and transformative power of being in nature for all aspects of our health. As one of the mentors in a yoga nidra program I completed shared with us, we are of nature. It replenishes us mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Each biome of Earth has the potential to inspire us and fill us with serenity and awe, as long as we take proper precautions, lol. Again, it's hippy talk in the sense that most humans will have that go in one ear, and out the other. I know so many people who don't like hiking, don't like parks, mountains, or beaches, prefer to play video games all day, don't want to ruin their make-up with sweat, prefer to go shopping or to the club, etc. Even among those who feel the beneficial impact of maintaining a regular connection with nature, most spend their time indoors. 🤷♂️
For me, what made video games addictive for me was the competitive aspect. Online PVP fps games. The knowledge of somebody trying to get me but I get them or sometimes me trying hard to get them but they get me is thrilling. Things you need to process in order to get better, etc. Feeling fluid in your movement and pulling off things like you see people in movies do.
@@JeffCaplan313feeling good and actually being good for you are two different things. Things that "feel good" are simply habits that your brain has associated as pleasure because of the dopamine release. I'm not anti-gaming per say. But. I do know that there are more fulfilling things one could be doing with their life instead. Activities that over time actually make a tangible difference in your life, and other people's lives. The part about other people's lives is not a side note either. There are plenty of studies that confirm that improving other people's lives is one of the most effective ways of improving your own life. Anywho, rant over, to each their own. May you live a wonderful life!
"Keep your friends close and your enemies closer." Also...the more educated women become, the less children they have. The game is strong in that room.
Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of $270,500 every months,God bless Christy Fiore 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
I've always wanted to be involved for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me. Although I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand
I dont smoke weed, everyone around me does. So it sucks. Hard time tryin to find friends that are full on sober nowadays. I dont wanna meet them at church tho.
watching this while stoned really shifted my perspective into thinking that life is too short to overthink and become paralyized. I have great respect for knowledge and having the course free recorded for public knowledge is also commendable.
49:42 Walmart is an excellent marketer…. They have some of the best real estate in just about every city and are known by 100% of the population. That’s marketing, I get how they might not have the best commercials- but their commercials don’t have to sell. People go there regardless. So I guess it depends on your definition of marketing because they do dominant their market…. Anyways good info - just wanted to point that out
Everyone thinks they need a ton of money in retirement because they're going to travel and host parties and do all sorts of fun activities with all of their free time. The reality is most people that are 70+ just want to stay in there comfort bubble. Lay in bed. Watch TV. You won't even care about food. You'll rather just eat a rice cake if it means 0 effort and 2 minutes of bother so you can get back to lounging around and vegging out and keeping close to your own bathroom and creature comforts. You'll want to sell your house simply because you jsut don't feel like going up and down a flight of stairs. Stay in your bathrobe all day. Sit out on the porch and just people watch. At most old people will venture out around 9:30 in the morning to get their morning coffee for 15 minutes cause it makes them feel like they got out of the house and did something for the day. You don't need a million dollars to live like that. At most you'll need your rent money, med insurance bill and like 600 bucks for food.
I love you Owen. I agree with most of what you said. But it would be good if Jordan or Ben could get these simple messages out to the public. A simple message like “clean your room” will get through to people and give them the energy they need to get their lives in order. Not everyone is ready to hear the most complicated self-improvement concepts.
2:11:25 Exactly, it's easy to jump from one extreme to the other and be blind to other aspects of life. The goal would be to maintain awareness of all facets as much as possible and take steps to make your fulfillment in each of these to be as robust as possible.
2:10:57 Yeah, that's a bit extreme. I did have the same reaction as Jesse that that is the mentality of someone who was broke, despite their financial wealth, and a slave to something that they overoptimized for and could not enjoy other aspects of life. That being said, if you don't like skiing, that too is fine. You can do other things that are fun. Moreover, I would not have aimed to overdo it and get an ACL injury. You didn't have to prove that to yourself beyond the first few attempts.
Owen, you should check out Evergreen Church in Santa Monica. Took me years to finally find a good church in LA. The Spirit is wildly present in that space.
I’m sorry, but that church is just a rock concert followed by a Ted talk about Jesus. No hate to fellow brother in Christ, however go to a real Trad Catholic or Orthodox Church.
Hi Owen, can you your next video be about epicurean philosophy and hedonism because it seems like you got this pleasure and fun living down to a science. Other people and youtubers say hedonism cannot be done because you would lack purpose, meaning and fulfillment. But I want to say, you are not like other people Owen, you got hedonistic living down. Please do a talk about it because I know most people have tried epicurean and hedonism and they can't make it work.
The best things in life are free, like using the act of petting a simple house cat to internally cleanse your spirit the same way they clean their external domain as if by chore
I have a very sincere question. “Do you believe that Jesus is Lord and Savior, or not”? If you answer, you can just answer “yes” or “no.” I’m curious. Thank you. 🙏🏻 I want for you to know too, that I appreciate the time, effort and downright love that you’ve put into sharing this piece of your life with us that you’ll never get back. Thank you, Owen. ❤️
I love most of your stuff but another idea is that perhaps your foundation was not as hard so it yielded a level of weakness that someone who never even thought about it. My foundation was extremely hard, later went through chemo, radiation, blindness not able to walk, talk of see then my wife left… Not one day have I thought of taking myself out the game. I’m a top school educator and self taught trader. My foundation yielded the idea that shit simply one day will get better and it always has. If the time ever comes that it doesn’t I will never know because I’m gonna keep going until it’s over. I’m not unintelligent for that, the odds are in your favor if you simply keep pushing.
Thank you bro! I'm SO sorry you experienced that. That's completely insane. I hope you're doing every natural thing you can do to make sure it doesn't come back, as well as what do with doctors. Re: contemplating if you'd end it or not, what I meant was that I think most people just putter along in a daze, whereas I have the advantage of saying "I'd honestly rather be dead than live another day like this" which then MOTIVATES me. I think most people actually wish they were dead so try to NUMB it with the trappings of modern society, rather than just admitting "this is honestly a fate worse than death" and then FIXING it. -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour Thanks for the added insight and compassion bro! However, my situation has been one of the best things that has ever happened for me though. I bounced back stronger than ever physically, mentally, financially and spiritually.
This makes So Much Sense. Thank you! Had no idea who you were until today… sorry I missed you in Portland… Following you on socials so I don’t miss you if you do Portland again
I’ve enjoyed all of your content. So far this one is it. You had me at the edge of my seat wanting you to go in on the “behind the scenes” stuff you know. I can kind of read in between lines. Respect Owen for these valuable downloads.
We can’t all just live off of charisma and live in houses other people are paying for. Gotta have suckers like me to keep the lights on and the bowels of modern society functioning or it will just be like one big Fyre festival around here.
I disagree with a lot of this, but I also love Owen’s energy and he’s definitely a good example of success and an excellent teacher. Herb doesn’t give you psychosis, so I would not recommend meth over it for example. Herb may actually have benefits used in a medicinal way and not abused. Meth is neurotoxic, gives you limp dick and destroys your liver.
20:24 Yeah, these are very different individual tendencies. People who prone to being stuck at home all day playing video games and engage with graphic and explicit titillating material are indulging escapism. Part of them may feel that they don't have access to what they wish to experience in life and that it may not exist in the physical world, so why go outside to be disappointed. It's not something you can try because your belief system is not at all like that. I prefer being out in nature and visiting national parks, but I know very few people who are excited enough to actually make those trips. Many people hate traveling at all.
At first i was upset that he didnt give any answers to actually being a millionaire but then the good information he shares is profound to think about even if i knew almost all of it instinctually. Especially when he says you cant just be handed the answers and money or youll lose it or yourself.
It can be hard if there is a lot of corruption and few resources, but if you keep looking for opportunities and be creative you can find something. If you find a popular product, hear the complaints about it and make your own version that is better/higher quality (you fixed the thing people were complaining about) to sell that is an option.
It's been clinically verified dozens of times that sleeping mostly-uncovered, slightly cold, increases efficiency of metabolism and increases lifespan.
Teaching in a video format is called “passive income” - they record the video once and continue making an income or “royalties” on said video…. Brilliant
What's really sad but also hysterical is that all these people paid to hear you talk about yourself, never realizing their programming from birth kept them in their chairs. When early on you talked about how much time we spend taking a shit....I would have jumped up and said "Yeah and why the fuck am I in a seminar, paying to listen to someone tell me what I already know?? This sucks - I don't want to be doing this!! I want a refund!" and get up and walk out. Then demand a refund, go to youtube and put your seminar on playback speed 1.5! Winning
It's a free event that runs 30 hours and we post the random rants and asides here, the instructional step by step content is in the free course that is in the pinned comment, we do it this way so every video is not the exact same -Owen
Million dollar parties and nothing but pure winning to an audience of 37 people in a dingy conference room at the Pittsburgh Holiday Inn. Who is this guy?
Lmao damn. Also, is it realistic or even healthy to want to be happy and not word all the time period I think it's stuff like that. That helps you learn what it is to apply yourself and work hard and realize that everything isn't going to be great all the time period that helps you Appreciate the good times more.Should you just sit around and be bored and not strive for more happiness or success or fulfillment? No. What to Be spending every minute of your waking hour.Trying to have fun and not reward is your goal.Then I don't know.I think you have something wrong with you internally , you need some therapy or something LO.L
"They hide the best stuff by capturing it" Yep ........so true. I focus upon being a "nobody" How many times have you heard ....."Nobody" can do that. I hear that a lot from stock brokers. Soooo just for grins I gave away a process that has not had a losing trade in over 90 years trading the S&P 500. ........to the San Diego Traders Group in November 2023. The formula said up we go at that time and within 6 months that S&P was way up higher. Owen's ideas for how to rent a mansion for free work ..........if you have or develop the contacts and then manage the mansion rental. When it comes to money I look for stuff that is more passive.
@@anonymerdude4501 thank you for the kind recommendations. But it’s more of a joke - Owen always says there are people with low vibration energy who make negative comments, so I made this comment like 5 seconds after he posted the video. It’s like a parody lol
Yo Owen! Looking jacked brotha! Thanks for all the help you’ve unknowingly given me, and for free! Just wanted you to know there’s a lot of people you’ve helped that you’ll never meet. Take care brother
15:19 Being actively suicidal is very, very different from having a passive thought about killing yourself and casually thinking about it. They are not at all comparable. One is a newborn baby river dolphin in the Amazon, and the other is a massive adult blue whale.
AAAAAAAAHHHHHAHAHAHAH!!! THIS IS THE BEST EVER! I LOVED this so much! literally speaking my language! If you need a personal assistant, graphic designer, events manager, and vibrational sound therapist helping you spread the gift of good vibes to the world and support with amazing parties I GOT YOU!!! HOLLLAAA!!!
I’m the same, I want the ayahuasca that will make you have an ego again.. it doesn’t seem real to me either.. bro, I need you in my life, let’s connect, I totally resonate with everything and I need to be doing more of what you’re doing… trying to get out of my own way every day.

Owen is so right.

Edit: I understand now why you cant just speak about these things
2:14:47 I have gone to bars for parties when I was younger and for Meetup events in my 30's and "improved my social skills." It was definitely out of my comfort zone, but again, those are not environments that suit me, and the skills from those interactions did not elevate my quality of life. They were a means to an end of meeting more people, but once the friendships I made ran their course as others were facing their own toxic life stressors and our friend group imploded, I went back to focusing on my own projects and work. Thankfully, I was meeting people in other environments as well, including volunteering and online courses, so I developed a greater tolerance for being around large groups of people for prolonged periods of time in a more relaxed state, but ultimately, it's not something I want to jump back into in crowded spaces with loud music and the smell of booze on people's breath. There are other venues that suit my interests more.
And you are being mindful if what works for you which is great. :)
@@sexywarriorwomen Indeed 🤣
Mid 20s going thru this now decided to step out etc threw my focus right off ...now getting back into alignment & my spirituality.
@@MC333 Same, but in my late 30's now
@@letsdomath1750 much gratitude to the path , always a good time to get in alignment. Always been an introvert never a partier etc , decided to socialize and it thru alot off... I do better in small organized settings...the lack of awareness and chaos in those spaces are not for me forsure
After watching the whole thing, I think that it resonates more with people who don't fit neatly into societal molds. I have done solo road trips out of my old minivan, driven across the US because I preferred the scenic route over a turbulent flight with TSA delays, and have couchsurfed around different countries in central Europe for 3 months during a self-funded 14-month sabbatical. These are not things most people would consider doing, and I get the same impression from your video, so I am not sure how much of an impact that type of message would have on general audiences. That being said, all of the national parks are next on my list.😁
Mindfulness meditation (e.g., The Mind Illuminated) is the best tool I've found to train the ability to find joy and fun in the present moment. Surprised Owen doesn't talk about it more.
He did mention that he would rather use meditation to reach certain levels that drugs could induce
Owen’s freestyle riffs are undefeated. “I’m in your head”!”
I'm 46 i fucked up. Time for a Uturn. Thanks for this. You spoke to me.
Keep rewatching this over and over you got this
Im 52 and I did too. You still have time.
What floozy. Advice: get a 80k a month house and pay for it with videos! Reality: nobody will rent you a 80k house without being able to pay cash for the entire lease. Even if you can do this you wont sell many videos and you will be broke. Why? Because your house is an investment you need a return on competing with people who own these houses by other means and will always be substantially cheaper.
I could go on and on ripping him apart but there is no point and there is tons of idiots out there spouting pipe dreams.
1:29:28 That requires intellectual depth and curiosity that many people consider mentally taxing and not light and pleasant. Most people engage with such topics very sparingly, and celebrity gossip gets elevated much more readily because it's shocking and scandalous, but also a spectacle that does not involve them directly nor that requires active participation in the form of deep introspection and self-reflection.
I don't know what is with Owen, i'm following him since around 2016.. i've seen his transformation from pickup to more general hardcore brutally honest selfhelp.. it's crazy but he spits so much good stuff and facts it's like being high on cocaine everytime i watch and listen to him.. it's like he's bringing you back to the narrow road each time you're fucking up your life with negativity and timewasting like he's mentioning a lot : opportunitycost..
Thank you so much owen !!!
6:43 You can also just be neutral about taking a shower or using the toilet. These are things you do to take care of your body so that you can do things you enjoy greatly. If you really need to be hyperstimulated and enjoying every moment, there are ways to do that. Play music, watch something on your phone, daydream, etc. You can also just use that time as an opportunity to relax and not become fixated on not being there. Resistance will rob you of more joy than taking a crap.
Yep
2:23:59 I already knew about the Gates of the Arctic, and I definitely want to visit each and every one of the national parks, but when I Googled Nāpali Coast, the iconic mountainous shoreline on Kauaʻi’s North Shore, I gasped as the pictures took my breath away. It reminded me of Water World and Jurassic Park. I want to go there ASAP! I highly recommend Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia and Badlands National Park in South Dakota at sundown by yourself.
32:33 it's one of the top important statements made in this entire video
I spend about an hour showering, about 2 years left I get to be showering myself Lolol I love every minute of it 😂 I need to boost those numbers man, those are rookie numbers!!
AN HOUR SHOWERING?!?! How much do you spend on water and electricity? 😂😂😂
Sounds luxurious!
1:07:33 Oh, I had similar experiences when driving through Utah. I could see parts of Bryce Canyon National Park from the overlooks on the highway. I was driving back to Columbus, OH by myself after a Las Vegas trip with my friend group at the time ended chaotically, lol. The GPS kept taking me into the Rocky Mountains for some reason, and I relented. It was sublime, and a transcendent experience. The bare earth was so colorful and vibrant, even without the exuberance of life. You could see mountains and desert basins, snow and sand, and a vast brilliant blue sky as dawn progressed. I was so grateful to be alive and to be born in North America and to be born on this planet. I have had other experiences like that in nature, but this is ultimately hippy talk. Most people don't care about any of that, lol. 🤣
It’s not hippy talk to realize how beautiful and amazing the world is. In fact studies show that being in nature is extremely beneficial for our mental health.
Studies show being in nature is good for our mental health actually. :)
@@sexywarriorwomen Oh, for sure, I know the beauty and transformative power of being in nature for all aspects of our health. As one of the mentors in a yoga nidra program I completed shared with us, we are of nature. It replenishes us mentally, spiritually, emotionally, and physically. Each biome of Earth has the potential to inspire us and fill us with serenity and awe, as long as we take proper precautions, lol.
Again, it's hippy talk in the sense that most humans will have that go in one ear, and out the other. I know so many people who don't like hiking, don't like parks, mountains, or beaches, prefer to play video games all day, don't want to ruin their make-up with sweat, prefer to go shopping or to the club, etc. Even among those who feel the beneficial impact of maintaining a regular connection with nature, most spend their time indoors. 🤷♂️
For me, what made video games addictive for me was the competitive aspect. Online PVP fps games. The knowledge of somebody trying to get me but I get them or sometimes me trying hard to get them but they get me is thrilling. Things you need to process in order to get better, etc. Feeling fluid in your movement and pulling off things like you see people in movies do.
Same it's a lot like sports flow
it's always funny to see all the mental gymnastic people use to justify the time they waste playing videogames.
@raff5184 it feels good!
@@raff5184How is it a waste of time if its fun.
@@JeffCaplan313feeling good and actually being good for you are two different things. Things that "feel good" are simply habits that your brain has associated as pleasure because of the dopamine release. I'm not anti-gaming per say. But. I do know that there are more fulfilling things one could be doing with their life instead. Activities that over time actually make a tangible difference in your life, and other people's lives. The part about other people's lives is not a side note either. There are plenty of studies that confirm that improving other people's lives is one of the most effective ways of improving your own life. Anywho, rant over, to each their own. May you live a wonderful life!
The crazier Owens beard looks the better the videos are. Missing the wheelchair in this vid.
I was today years old when I learned about Owen Cook. Better late than never I suppose. I’ll see you in Boston. Much love man! Good sh!t💯
DEAR OWEN.
PLEASE SERVE US THE CRAZY SHIT
BEST REGARDS
People live like they're immortal when, in reality, they could die at any moment.
Exactly, people act like they will be here forever. Love when life changes the script for them and there left scratching there head😂
that's because thats the way we supposed to be but the system we living in doesn't allow it.
@@dewitubeX1 that we live forever, we don't.?

Hallelujah!!!! The daily jesus devotional has been a huge part of my transformation, God is good 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻was owning a loan of $47,000 to the bank for my son's brain surgery (David), Now I'm no longer in debt after I invested $8,000 and got my payout of $270,500 every months,God bless Christy Fiore 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸..
Hello!! how do you make such monthly, I’m a born Christian and sometimes I feel so down of myself 😭 because of low finance but I still believe God
Thanks to my co-worker (Carson ) who suggested Ms Christy Fiore
After I raised up to 525k trading with her I bought a new House and a car here in the states🇺🇸🇺🇸 also paid for my son's surgery….Glory to God, shalom.
She's a licensed broker here in the states🇺🇸 and finance advisor.
I've always wanted to be involved for a long time but the volatility in the price has been very confusing to me. Although I have watched a lot of UA-cam videos about it but I still find it hard to understand

I dont smoke weed, everyone around me does. So it sucks. Hard time tryin to find friends that are full on sober nowadays. I dont wanna meet them at church tho.
I’ll be your friend
We do exist
Maybe pole, is what you want to smoke?
I hear you. Find a hiking group or running group to join? Meet people who are trying to be healthy. :)
Man made religion can bring you down so I get it about not wanting to meet people at church.
watching this while stoned really shifted my perspective into thinking that life is too short to overthink and become paralyized.
I have great respect for knowledge and having the course free recorded for public knowledge is also commendable.
You're on fire Owen 🔥 can't wait to see you in Dallas!
49:42 Walmart is an excellent marketer…. They have some of the best real estate in just about every city and are known by 100% of the population. That’s marketing, I get how they might not have the best commercials- but their commercials don’t have to sell. People go there regardless. So I guess it depends on your definition of marketing because they do dominant their market…. Anyways good info - just wanted to point that out
I just found this guy. Amazing speaker, very unique understanding about life and he’s very intelligent!
micro dosing is sus! thanks Owen for another banger!
You know the seminar lit when Big Bubba makes an appearance
I think its more julian thing in their buissnes model

Everyone thinks they need a ton of money in retirement because they're going to travel and host parties and do all sorts of fun activities with all of their free time. The reality is most people that are 70+ just want to stay in there comfort bubble. Lay in bed. Watch TV. You won't even care about food. You'll rather just eat a rice cake if it means 0 effort and 2 minutes of bother so you can get back to lounging around and vegging out and keeping close to your own bathroom and creature comforts.
You'll want to sell your house simply because you jsut don't feel like going up and down a flight of stairs. Stay in your bathrobe all day. Sit out on the porch and just people watch. At most old people will venture out around 9:30 in the morning to get their morning coffee for 15 minutes cause it makes them feel like they got out of the house and did something for the day. You don't need a million dollars to live like that. At most you'll need your rent money, med insurance bill and like 600 bucks for food.
I love you Owen. I agree with most of what you said. But it would be good if Jordan or Ben could get these simple messages out to the public. A simple message like “clean your room” will get through to people and give them the energy they need to get their lives in order. Not everyone is ready to hear the most complicated self-improvement concepts.
True
2:11:25 Exactly, it's easy to jump from one extreme to the other and be blind to other aspects of life. The goal would be to maintain awareness of all facets as much as possible and take steps to make your fulfillment in each of these to be as robust as possible.
I fucking love this dude. Oh the conversations we could have😮
First time hearing him
2:10:57 Yeah, that's a bit extreme. I did have the same reaction as Jesse that that is the mentality of someone who was broke, despite their financial wealth, and a slave to something that they overoptimized for and could not enjoy other aspects of life. That being said, if you don't like skiing, that too is fine. You can do other things that are fun. Moreover, I would not have aimed to overdo it and get an ACL injury. You didn't have to prove that to yourself beyond the first few attempts.
Owen, you should check out Evergreen Church in Santa Monica. Took me years to finally find a good church in LA. The Spirit is wildly present in that space.
I’m sorry, but that church is just a rock concert followed by a Ted talk about Jesus. No hate to fellow brother in Christ, however go to a real Trad Catholic or Orthodox Church.
Hi Owen, can you your next video be about epicurean philosophy and hedonism because it seems like you got this pleasure and fun living down to a science. Other people and youtubers say hedonism cannot be done because you would lack purpose, meaning and fulfillment. But I want to say, you are not like other people Owen, you got hedonistic living down. Please do a talk about it because I know most people have tried epicurean and hedonism and they can't make it work.
Thank you, Owen. I'm done being lazy. I'm thankful for you. Sending you lots of love & abundance.❤🌌🗝
It really is that simple!
Every master leaves behind a book hard back, soft back.
The best things in life are free, like using the act of petting a simple house cat to internally cleanse your spirit the same way they clean their external domain as if by chore
Yeah man. This is making a lot of sense
The more spiritually enlightened owen becomes the more he physically resembles a leperchaun, lol love u bro you're my hero fr
I immediately thought of Rainn Wilson when I saw him.
I have a very sincere question. “Do you believe that Jesus is Lord and Savior, or not”? If you answer, you can just answer “yes” or “no.” I’m curious. Thank you. 🙏🏻
I want for you to know too, that I appreciate the time, effort and downright love that you’ve put into sharing this piece of your life with us that you’ll never get back. Thank you, Owen. ❤️
Im sold just on the way he is dressed in the Versace like short with the shoes, I'm only 8 minutes in and I know this guy is Fun
I love most of your stuff but another idea is that perhaps your foundation was not as hard so it yielded a level of weakness that someone who never even thought about it. My foundation was extremely hard, later went through chemo, radiation, blindness not able to walk, talk of see then my wife left… Not one day have I thought of taking myself out the game. I’m a top school educator and self taught trader. My foundation yielded the idea that shit simply one day will get better and it always has. If the time ever comes that it doesn’t I will never know because I’m gonna keep going until it’s over. I’m not unintelligent for that, the odds are in your favor if you simply keep pushing.
Thank you bro! I'm SO sorry you experienced that. That's completely insane. I hope you're doing every natural thing you can do to make sure it doesn't come back, as well as what do with doctors.
Re: contemplating if you'd end it or not, what I meant was that I think most people just putter along in a daze, whereas I have the advantage of saying "I'd honestly rather be dead than live another day like this" which then MOTIVATES me. I think most people actually wish they were dead so try to NUMB it with the trappings of modern society, rather than just admitting "this is honestly a fate worse than death" and then FIXING it. -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour Thanks for the added insight and compassion bro! However, my situation has been one of the best things that has ever happened for me though. I bounced back stronger than ever physically, mentally, financially and spiritually.
This makes So Much Sense. Thank you!
Had no idea who you were until today… sorry I missed you in Portland…
Following you on socials so I don’t miss you if you do Portland again
"Great guy but he's dead" I love Owen hahaha
Are you serious?
I’ve enjoyed all of your content. So far this one is it. You had me at the edge of my seat wanting you to go in on the “behind the scenes” stuff you know.
I can kind of read in between lines. Respect Owen for these valuable downloads.
Man, i love these new videos, youre the G.O.A.T... pure créeme
Thank You Owen
We can’t all just live off of charisma and live in houses other people are paying for. Gotta have suckers like me to keep the lights on and the bowels of modern society functioning or it will just be like one big Fyre festival around here.
I disagree with a lot of this, but I also love Owen’s energy and he’s definitely a good example of success and an excellent teacher. Herb doesn’t give you psychosis, so I would not recommend meth over it for example. Herb may actually have benefits used in a medicinal way and not abused. Meth is neurotoxic, gives you limp dick and destroys your liver.
& yuck meth mouth… I definitely wouldn’t recommend that
Like a new rich motivational zen master
20:24 Yeah, these are very different individual tendencies. People who prone to being stuck at home all day playing video games and engage with graphic and explicit titillating material are indulging escapism. Part of them may feel that they don't have access to what they wish to experience in life and that it may not exist in the physical world, so why go outside to be disappointed. It's not something you can try because your belief system is not at all like that. I prefer being out in nature and visiting national parks, but I know very few people who are excited enough to actually make those trips. Many people hate traveling at all.
Thanks for sharing. I've been a big fan of yours for many years.
Thank you Owen ! Very insightful and thought provoking!
At first i was upset that he didnt give any answers to actually being a millionaire but then the good information he shares is profound to think about even if i knew almost all of it instinctually. Especially when he says you cant just be handed the answers and money or youll lose it or yourself.
What about people living in developing countries? How do we exceed the average person without enslaving others or do illegal work
Learning internet marketing and doing social media is not country relevant -Owen
It can be hard if there is a lot of corruption and few resources, but if you keep looking for opportunities and be creative you can find something.
If you find a popular product, hear the complaints about it and make your own version that is better/higher quality (you fixed the thing people were complaining about) to sell that is an option.
Love this! I'm having fun watching...lol😂 God Bless

i always wonder why these people who have the solution to making millions are doing youtube videos or teaching and not living like millionaires ....?
Interesting isn't it?
Teaching in a video format is called “passive income” - they record the video once and continue making an income or “royalties” on said video…. Brilliant
He literally tells you why in this video.
This is one of the best videos you've done in maybe the last decade. Thank you so so much
Thank you Owen!😊
Win win win and not one word of god . Let's pray they find the real meaning before it's to late.
You clearly didn’t watch the whole video.
What's really sad but also hysterical is that all these people paid to hear you talk about yourself, never realizing their programming from birth kept them in their chairs.
When early on you talked about how much time we spend taking a shit....I would have jumped up and said "Yeah and why the fuck am I in a seminar, paying to listen to someone tell me what I already know?? This sucks - I don't want to be doing this!! I want a refund!" and get up and walk out. Then demand a refund, go to youtube and put your seminar on playback speed 1.5! Winning
It's a free event that runs 30 hours and we post the random rants and asides here, the instructional step by step content is in the free course that is in the pinned comment, we do it this way so every video is not the exact same -Owen
It was free. He did say that in the video, but yes watching sped up is a win.

So very very true
This is his hobby doing these talks. He makes no money from them
Lmao damn. Also, is it realistic or even healthy to want to be happy and not word all the time period I think it's stuff like that. That helps you learn what it is to apply yourself and work hard and realize that everything isn't going to be great all the time period that helps you Appreciate the good times more.Should you just sit around and be bored and not strive for more happiness or success or fulfillment? No. What to Be spending every minute of your waking hour.Trying to have fun and not reward is your goal.Then I don't know.I think you have something wrong with you internally , you need some therapy or something LO.L
When does your podcast start, Owen?
Good shit.
"They hide the best stuff by capturing it" Yep ........so true. I focus upon being a "nobody" How many times have you heard ....."Nobody" can do that. I hear that a lot from stock brokers. Soooo just for grins I gave away a process that has not had a losing trade in over 90 years trading the S&P 500. ........to the San Diego Traders Group in November 2023. The formula said up we go at that time and within 6 months that S&P was way up higher. Owen's ideas for how to rent a mansion for free work ..........if you have or develop the contacts and then manage the mansion rental. When it comes to money I look for stuff that is more passive.

15:19 Being actively suicidal is very, very different from having a passive thought about killing yourself and casually thinking about it. They are not at all comparable. One is a newborn baby river dolphin in the Amazon, and the other is a massive adult blue whale.
