im fighting bro, I got married to Japanese woman and live in Japan with no friends or family, completely isolated for years and the amount I have grown is incredible, but it's tough and im not sure how much longer I can fight in this samurai land, also my wife is psycho bpd
Hey Owen, I was following you a few years ago and then I really fell off. I bought a rock climbing rope, learned how to tie a noose and found a tree to hang myself from. I ended up not going through with it and I'm now in therapy, got off drugs, got a full time job and even started dating again. I'm coming back! Just want to say thanks for all the free content you've pumped out consistently over the years. King shit 💙
@@budgetingstrategies6240 Releasing trauma which the free books The power of now (eckhart) and letting go (David R hawkins) gives you a elaborate view of how it works (TM from Julien is also great but is not free), if you don't want to go. However I think a therapist can keep you accountable and pinpoints the unidentified traumas that you need to release.
Alan Watts, George Carlin, Russell Means, Serj Tankian. These geniuses among many, many others have given us a heads up about the times we are in. This brother is teaching us to break out of our trance and be the change we wish to see. Owen, thank you for doing what you're doing, bro. 🙏🏽
10 years ago when I just started…. going into ANY social event and creating awesome connections seemed like a pipedream! Thank you for all the lessons over the years. I’m living a great life because I toon ACTION on your teachings. You rock Owen 🙏🔥🚀
44:16 “a state is just another thing to be attached to”. Earth shattering wow. What a statement. Suddenly I feel a sense of freedom I’ve not felt in decades of spiritual work…
Owen, this video is the first time I’ve ever heard you speak and God bless you sir. I watch WAY too much UA-cam every day about changing my life and self help and motivation and psychology and I understand a lot of things but it hasn’t clicked. The first 15 minutes of this video has absolutely been the information and the encouragement that I’ve been desperately seeking. I have been so low and in a victimhood mentality for years now just dying to get out. I really hope one day I get to meet you sir and do business with you or even just talk with you and thank you. I’m so glad that this video autoplayed!!
THANK YOU OWEN!!! Amazing content as always. Remember guys and gals: "You have the wisdom of a thousand generations built into your system". Also; -Don't normalize mediocrity or just getting by. -Stop thinking that "being rich" will make you happy. Look at children of billionaires. -Raise your standards. -You NEED challenges. Growth is one of the biggest pillars of fulfillment and joy. -The journey is ALL there is. Learn to embrace and enjoy everything.
I finally after 7 years am doing approaches like 8 days in a row. i had no idea how hard of a missing link this was in my life. its like i opened a portal. Now, by no means i have any "statistical" succes. But there is a clear road now, and all the inner work pays off like nothing ever paid off in my life. You can bet your behind ill be in the soonest freetour event in europe. Thank you so f-ing much. I cried smiling, to see people smile around me, because of me, and i really didnt do anything. i can give ppl compliments (thats where im at) and make funny remarks, ppl just are happy to have me. And its amazing the girls who just smile. The amount of woman that i brighten their day a little bit feels soulshattering in a good way. I cannot believe it. This is something that is going to be the only freetime thing i do. I am so gratefull to have found you in 2014, to finally get this. after giant ups and downs this was the obvious missing link.
I’ve started to realize self-control/self-discipline is integral for self esteem. Keep some disciplined practices and follow through on your word always no matter what.
Appreciating your work and lived-example at new levels recently, thank you! I'm particularly resonating with your warnings of falling into external validation traps, hooks and leaky energetic drains when rising in the public eye. Maintaining internal motivation and self-amusement to keep serving with freedom from outcome. It's clear to see you attempting to live along these principles, cheers again Owen.
Just revisited this talk and man is it a gem. Reinvigorated my drive in entrepreneurship. I've been questioning my why. Thank you for voicing what I know to be true but unable to articulate.
I'm one of those guys that makes under $100,000 a year and is a battery. Thanks to you and your crew, I plan to start my own collectibles company next year. I'm building up some inventory right now and then leaving my job next year.
The part where you say yo: I transistioned in under 12 months. Man Owen, I'm so proud of your transformation man. This has been such a great journey watching you man! I can't wait to help!
@@OwenCookFreeTour yeah man I know you had to adapt fast and you did that like a storm! Super proud man, great teamwork and innovation! Also being aware of the trends: legendary
Id love to see Owen do a program on parenting, he seems to really have his own way of parenting his kids that’s outside the mainstream and really effective.
So true, even when you get what you want your still not content. I realized once I achieved what I wanted I wasn’t satisfied. Makes you think and look inside
If we all keep our own porch clean and learn to communicate properly, the global community will be much better off, which is basically everything you guys represent
Thank you owen, i really needed this video. it helped me ask the question to myself of "what would i do if i knew nothing would make me happy" and i surprisingly had an answer. So for the first time in years i actually feel like i have something to work towards. Slave no more
I love these videos man! After going out all night and burning it to the ground. I immediately go on theses vids. I hope you never take these vids down man! Always a good time with these long form vids! 🔥
Owen I really gained alot of value from the talk to 10 people in a funny way and rate that out of 1000. I've had attention challenges for most of my life and this technique could cure depression done consistently! Awesome video bro from top to bottom!
Owen did it again. GREAT speech man, thanks for sharing this all, I took a ton of notes and am ready to implement it all. I loved the part of ''Do it not just for the cash... do it for the mental exercise''. Really gave me new inspiration and motivation to look at my situation differently!! Thanks!
Owen you truly are an incredible speaker - this was the best thing I’ve heard in a long time! Have you ever thought about speaking with some other deep thinkers like John Vervaeke? I think that format could be interesting and dynamic
Rewatching some previous videos, I want to contribute another idea to the discussion. From my own experience, which isn't nothing, ive been alive for 30 years and have been sober most of the time, you can't fake your vibe past a certain point. Your real vibe comes from your past deeds. How much courage have you had? Your vibe is a product of who you are deep down and in truth. Don't try to change it artificially. Be authentic, and if you're a piece of shit, take the corrective action like a man and you will change. People will slap you down, but thats how you are forced to change. Let life change you in your soul, dont try to trick the world with your brain. Hardship and pain is your friend, ironically.
take action, get some positive reinforcements, change your identity core slowly over time, take external validations but to a certain degree (healthy ego) to avoid the rest crushes your soul
0:00 The importance of challenges and struggle in your life for self-development -> Owen talks about how rich kids are miserable because they have no challenges to overcome. He explains how he studied marketing and acquired core-competency, which leads to true self-confidence. 2:30 How Owen is utilizing the free tour to create new content. 3:40 How all the good things in Owens life came from tough self-improvement. 4:40 How the victim mentality can be utilized by manipulators who tell the people that they are a victim, then couple that with giving them free stuff and branding themselves their savior who "recognized" that they are a "victim". 5:50 How the first amendment is being eroded. 7:00 The masses are in a derp state. 9:30 Owen explains that achieving peak performance and massive success in all areas of life (social, dating, money etc.) is a matter of focus and that many people grow up in environments and social backgrounds that make it hard to concentrate. 11:00 Owen notes that most of the attendants of the event are probably unhappy and how the state of many people doesn't change permanently when success is achieved in the outside world. 12:20 How to get happier: 1. Embrace that you control your own mood and learn to control it. 2. Start producing habits that create brain-neurochemistry in your favor (Serotonine, Dopamine, Acetylcholine, GABA). Ingest things that help balance your neurochemistry (Supplements). 3. Doing something where you are actually growing, that is challenging to you, that you believe in and that is allowing to you grow. 13:20 Owen tells of his trip to Mexico. 15:30 The challenge of only amusing yourself and having too much leisure -> people lose their self-esteem because they don't do anything they feel good about anymore. 16:40 Owen tells story about he felt like crying when he didn't get into a castle hotel. -> Owens vacation in Mexico was too long and he couldn't focus when he got back to Los Angeles. He explains how many people that get rich experience too much leisure and become half out of it through it. 20:04 How work keeps your mind sharp -> Owen explains that fantasies about not working anymore when you are older are misguided, because you will get dumber if you don't keep your mind sharp through challenging it. 22:00 The importance of self-reliance for your self-esteem and society
Yo this video reminded me of the truth about success videos wich are the best speeches on UA-cam in my opinion. Great video Owen you really are one of the best public speakers
Something that has really made a difference in my life is, do you wanna make money, date the best people, travel the world, live in beautiful cities eat the best food, help others or do you wanna be a poop eater and focus on the little shit. Everytime I find myself procrastinating or getting triggered by stupid garbage on the internet, I ask myself am I a poop eater.
WOW, I recently tore my ACL completely and have been limping around, and the surgery will be brutal. But that is not even remotely close to what you have experienced. I'm so sorry bro. That's AMAZING to hear you've been handling it. Here is a video you may relate with - ua-cam.com/video/7N-pQh8krs0/v-deo.html and proud of you man -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour thanks Owen! Though there are certain things that suck about being paralyzed, I also have one of the most incredible stories I've ever heard, so in a strange way it's a massive blessing. All the best with the ACL!
Caring about the well being of other more than yourself, or more than others care about their own well being is a sure fire recipe to fail in life. Quit doing that and watch things get better.
I see the point at 7:10 a lot in one of my friends but also at people in general like, people are so ‘unpresent’ that they literally don’t notice what is around them like me trying to get their attention (and I am like that also! but maybe not that much since I am into this type of work for some time now)
Cool stuff you're talking about! Thanks for so much value. I would like to add that it seems that it may not just be about development of the prefrontal cortex (which is still very important) but also the healthy connection of it with other brain areas as P. Levine states in one of his videos or other ones, so that the connection is more stable. One of the ways he approaches to support it in SE, he describes as feeling into the body sensation and describing the sensation as body sensation in your own words within your mind or speaking it out (f.ex. in a therapeutic context) to support connection of other parts of the brain with the prefrontal part for example while combining with other steps and tiltration. But there are also other approaches for this by other guys which are interesting as well and maybe sometimes more straight forward. Watching some of your old material right now which was taken down, great things there as well. Looking forward to see your next videos. Have a great day!
I recently signed a contract with myself to do carnivore for 30 days. If you really want to do something, I encourage you to get a piece of paper out and sign a dated contract that you can actually, really, truly keep. Helped me to start trusting myself again.
Watch hi def videos of hollywood hills. Hold yourself to the highest standards, and don't be in awe. get in the head space where you feel deserving of the best. be willing to take risks because you know that you are the value not the things you pursue. Always maintain options on the table and keep things up in the air. Keep things in motion. The moment you get a new job, start looking for anew one. The moment you acquire an asset start looking to sell. stay 3 or 4 steps ahead of your self. your self, your only enemy.
Have you ever read Carlos Castenada? You've literally followed the process of what Don Juan explains in The Active Side Of Infinity - that there's an unseen predator that rules the Earth, feeds off our energy and awareness and controls our minds, but we can overcome it through discipline and inner silence. When the predators influence is removed, tremendous feats of awareness are possible.
1:08:00 this is exactly what I need. Everyone wants so much money to help people how can someone like me get help when I have no money? I have to learn to make it first so then I could afford help. Please teach me.
The truth is, you could be reading endless free books and watching endless free videos, to get started. But I know the average person simply lacks the personal motivation, so for that reason I want to help them with that, despite that it's their own fault. I want to help them, because end of the day, when they fail, they'll drag down everyone else. So it's about me saying "Not only do I take responsibility for myself, I'll take responsibility for the lazy people too, since otherwise they'll collectivize and come after me and blame me" -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour True. I must be beyond average bc i spend everyday reading- sometimes multiple books, every day researching, watching self help financial marketing and investment videos. I act on their advice atleast the part that doesn't require any money. I'm producing youtube videos to the best of my ability, trying motivation videos on a new channel to get monetized, started developing an online course for travel videography. I started my own business after being homeless when covid shut down my job facility. I had the option of staying homeless in L.A or flying to Costa Rica for $90 and now I do promo videos on my iphone SE for a room in a hostel and food but I can't get comfortable here I need to succeed and I don't have anyone, any family to guide mentor help. I'm not lazy nor do I lack motivation I lack guidance knowing what works what leads to success... I hope to meet you on December 3-4. I'm be flying back to the USA to see you guys, probably sleeping outside but I need to know how I can succeed and I will do anything.
Owen, thank you for another video! Do you think that learning marketing was hard because of the paradigm you were in at the time? It seems like letting go would help streamline the internal experience of learning content that you don't vibe with
Hey Tyler, What's the VINIQ that you talk about as far as rankings? All I get is a alcohol. Probably spelling it wrong and searching wrong but ill try again and will probably find by the time of a response. All the best, Lukas Bimba
Imagine the universe was a creative project. What do creative projects need? They need time. They need energy. They need hands. Creative projects start small. You could argue they start from nothing more than the spark of idea, aka the big bang. Then they grow in scope and complexity. Everyone on the project, aka every atom in the universe, is delegated to a task that contributes to its progress, be it menial or profound. Some projects take hours. Some projects take weeks. This project began 13.8 billion years ago and does not seem close to wrapping up. We are the most recent recruits to this project. What stresses us out is that we’re temps. We have no idea what the deadline or the deliverable is, and we know we won’t be around long enough to find out, and we don’t like it. No one likes being a temp, especially if they start to identify with the role. And we identify with our role hard. The thing is it’s just a role. Most temps grow into more sophisticated and substantial roles. The single celled organism that died in like a day was certainly a shittier temp role than the human organism temp role. But these two roles are made of the same stuff, just put together in more sophisticated and substantial ways. When you leave this temp job, aka die, the project will still keep going. And more sophisticated and substantial roles will evolve as it does… recruiting all the same stuff that made a star, made a plankton, made you. A temp is only scared to lose their job if there’s no opportunity on the other side. And this project has unlimited opportunities for growth, on this planet alone let alone others (humanity itself is just one small task force in this project). So what are you going to do about it? You could freak out and despair over your temp role. This seems to be a popular choice these days. Or you could crush the temp role while it’s in your hands - gain experiences, make contributions, learn lessons - to prepare for a bigger and badder role when the opportunity presents itself, which by the looks of this project it definitely will. Your temp role, by definition, is disposable. In all likelihood the whole human taskforce is disposable. Nevertheless the role was funded. Nevertheless the taskforce was formed. However small, however replaceable, this seat is yours. You decide what you want to do with it. If you decide to fuck off and kill time and grow bitter until the role is let go, that’s on you. Your resume. Your acumen. Your call. If you decide to be that temp who shrugs off the insignificance and goes all in on the job, punching above your weight and contributing to the creative project in a way that will likely never be recognized or remembered but will make you a stronger candidate for future roles, that’s on you too. Your resume. Your acumen. Your call. The project moves forward either way.
59:10 What percentage of your thoughts is fulfillment of biological drives? What percentage is egoic needs? What percentage is social conditioning? How are these needs running me and how many of these needs are truely mine?
Reminds me of the movie about the founder of mcdonalds ray Kroc, he starts off as an unsuccessful salesman who drinks a lot, and by the end hes super successful and happy. But what the movie doesnt cover is 10 years later he relapsed into alcoholism and died 4 years after checking into a rehab center…..
Ok. So nightclubs let's say loud Environment. Is it best to only approach girls who give youveyr contact before you approach ? Girls who don't notice you until you walk up to them ? Or either way does not matter ?

I do believe you can get the momentum back though!

This dude literally threw away decades of brand development and has successfully created a new brand on self help. Love you Owen, follower since 2015.
Hey Owen, I was following you a few years ago and then I really fell off. I bought a rock climbing rope, learned how to tie a noose and found a tree to hang myself from.
I ended up not going through with it and I'm now in therapy, got off drugs, got a full time job and even started dating again. I'm coming back! Just want to say thanks for all the free content you've pumped out consistently over the years. King shit 💙
That's unbelievable, that you for letting me know, and good you're still here. Sorry it got to that point -Owen
there's much better times ahead if you can stay the course
Do you think therapy helped? If so, could you explain why?

0:00 The importance of challenges and struggle in your life for self-development
-> Owen talks about how rich kids are miserable because they have no challenges to overcome. He explains how he studied marketing and acquired core-competency, which leads to true self-confidence.
2:30 How Owen is utilizing the free tour to create new content.
3:40 How all the good things in Owens life came from tough self-improvement.
4:40 How the victim mentality can be utilized by manipulators who tell the people that they are a victim, then couple that with giving them free stuff and branding themselves their savior who "recognized" that they are a "victim".
5:50 How the first amendment is being eroded.
7:00 The masses are in a derp state.
9:30 Owen explains that achieving peak performance and massive success in all areas of life (social, dating, money etc.) is a matter of focus and that many people grow up in environments and social backgrounds that make it hard to concentrate.
11:00 Owen notes that most of the attendants of the event are probably unhappy and how the state of many people doesn't change permanently when success is achieved in the outside world.
12:20 How to get happier:
1. Embrace that you control your own mood and learn to control it.
2. Start producing habits that create brain-neurochemistry in your favor (Serotonine, Dopamine, Acetylcholine, GABA). Ingest things that help balance your neurochemistry (Supplements).
3. Doing something where you are actually growing, that is challenging to you, that you believe in and that is allowing to you grow.
13:20 Owen tells of his trip to Mexico.
15:30 The challenge of only amusing yourself and having too much leisure -> people lose their self-esteem because they don't do anything they feel good about anymore.
16:40 Owen tells story about he felt like crying when he didn't get into a castle hotel.
-> Owens vacation in Mexico was too long and he couldn't focus when he got back to Los Angeles. He explains how many people that get rich experience too much leisure and become half out of it through it.
20:04 How work keeps your mind sharp -> Owen explains that fantasies about not working anymore when you are older are misguided, because you will get dumber if you don't keep your mind sharp through challenging it.
22:00 The importance of self-reliance for your self-esteem and society
Yo this video reminded me of the truth about success videos wich are the best speeches on UA-cam in my opinion. Great video Owen you really are one of the best public speakers
Great speech Tyler, thank you.
One of your best speeches ever! Really needed this one today.
Thankyou.
Excellent talk
Something that has really made a difference in my life is, do you wanna make money, date the best people, travel the world, live in beautiful cities eat the best food, help others or do you wanna be a poop eater and focus on the little shit. Everytime I find myself procrastinating or getting triggered by stupid garbage on the internet, I ask myself am I a poop eater.
Lol that's the key, wait til you see the vids coming out about that next year -Owen
owen cook does it again
I got paralyzed in a motocross accident and use a wheelchair. I was depressed for like a year, but now I'm happier than I've ever been.
WOW, I recently tore my ACL completely and have been limping around, and the surgery will be brutal. But that is not even remotely close to what you have experienced. I'm so sorry bro. That's AMAZING to hear you've been handling it. Here is a video you may relate with - ua-cam.com/video/7N-pQh8krs0/v-deo.html and proud of you man -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour thanks Owen! Though there are certain things that suck about being paralyzed, I also have one of the most incredible stories I've ever heard, so in a strange way it's a massive blessing. All the best with the ACL!
Man Owen you are so good as soon as I get some cash together I definitely need to learn from you
Youre the greatest Owen, thank you! 🐐
Nice bro I'll take it lol -Owen
Really happy I opened up the email from Tyler and saw this vid. Good work man, glad to see you crushing it even harder in 2022!
Thank you bro!!! -Owen
Caring about the well being of other more than yourself, or more than others care about their own well being is a sure fire recipe to fail in life. Quit doing that and watch things get better.
Such a good video Im gonna have to come back to this one again in the future.
Thanks for the content! I'm trying to change my derping ways and this helps a lot.
Fantastic -Owen
Thank you
36:00 Thank you, been putting off social for way, way too long
Got it, nice -Owen
Hi Owen. Love the vid. Any advice on how to stop washing so much time on social media and UA-cam?
I see the point at 7:10 a lot in one of my friends but also at people in general like, people are so ‘unpresent’ that they literally don’t notice what is around them like me trying to get their attention (and I am like that also! but maybe not that much since I am into this type of work for some time now)
Love you bro. Been following you for years. Thanks for the insight and encouragement
Wow, i just saw myself in the audience.
Kool! 👍
This was pre pandemic 2019
Cool stuff you're talking about! Thanks for so much value. I would like to add that it seems that it may not just be about development of the prefrontal cortex (which is still very important) but also the healthy connection of it with other brain areas as P. Levine states in one of his videos or other ones, so that the connection is more stable. One of the ways he approaches to support it in SE, he describes as feeling into the body sensation and describing the sensation as body sensation in your own words within your mind or speaking it out (f.ex. in a therapeutic context) to support connection of other parts of the brain with the prefrontal part for example while combining with other steps and tiltration. But there are also other approaches for this by other guys which are interesting as well and maybe sometimes more straight forward. Watching some of your old material right now which was taken down, great things there as well. Looking forward to see your next videos. Have a great day!
I recently signed a contract with myself to do carnivore for 30 days. If you really want to do something, I encourage you to get a piece of paper out and sign a dated contract that you can actually, really, truly keep. Helped me to start trusting myself again.
Very cool method! -Owen
19:50 the best part imo starts.
Brilliant
Andrew Tate is cool and all that but this dude right here is the PIMP! Owen my dude man
Hold up. This was in Miami beach and i was there. Great stuff💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Great video! Even better timing
Three gods in this world that are pegged between Cause and Effect.
*Materialism
*Clout
*Pleasure
And high vibration energy from above, which trumps those mental Cheetos -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour amen brother
Watch hi def videos of hollywood hills. Hold yourself to the highest standards, and don't be in awe. get in the head space where you feel deserving of the best. be willing to take risks because you know that you are the value not the things you pursue. Always maintain options on the table and keep things up in the air. Keep things in motion. The moment you get a new job, start looking for anew one. The moment you acquire an asset start looking to sell. stay 3 or 4 steps ahead of your self. your self, your only enemy.
Have you ever read Carlos Castenada? You've literally followed the process of what Don Juan explains in The Active Side Of Infinity - that there's an unseen predator that rules the Earth, feeds off our energy and awareness and controls our minds, but we can overcome it through discipline and inner silence. When the predators influence is removed, tremendous feats of awareness are possible.
He has mentioned that author in past content
Awesome
1:08:00 this is exactly what I need. Everyone wants so much money to help people how can someone like me get help when I have no money? I have to learn to make it first so then I could afford help. Please teach me.
The truth is, you could be reading endless free books and watching endless free videos, to get started. But I know the average person simply lacks the personal motivation, so for that reason I want to help them with that, despite that it's their own fault. I want to help them, because end of the day, when they fail, they'll drag down everyone else. So it's about me saying "Not only do I take responsibility for myself, I'll take responsibility for the lazy people too, since otherwise they'll collectivize and come after me and blame me" -Owen
@@OwenCookFreeTour True. I must be beyond average bc i spend everyday reading- sometimes multiple books, every day researching, watching self help financial marketing and investment videos. I act on their advice atleast the part that doesn't require any money. I'm producing youtube videos to the best of my ability, trying motivation videos on a new channel to get monetized, started developing an online course for travel videography. I started my own business after being homeless when covid shut down my job facility. I had the option of staying homeless in L.A or flying to Costa Rica for $90 and now I do promo videos on my iphone SE for a room in a hostel and food but I can't get comfortable here I need to succeed and I don't have anyone, any family to guide mentor help. I'm not lazy nor do I lack motivation I lack guidance knowing what works what leads to success... I hope to meet you on December 3-4. I'm be flying back to the USA to see you guys, probably sleeping outside but I need to know how I can succeed and I will do anything.
Owen, thank you for another video! Do you think that learning marketing was hard because of the paradigm you were in at the time? It seems like letting go would help streamline the internal experience of learning content that you don't vibe with
I just find it boring lol that was it -Owen
Random question Owen but have you recently gone out in downtown salt Lake city?
Hey Tyler, What's the VINIQ that you talk about as far as rankings? All I get is a alcohol. Probably spelling it wrong and searching wrong but ill try again and will probably find by the time of a response. All the best,
Lukas Bimba
Youre the man!
Tnx Aldous Huxley lol -Owen
Puebla is beautiful with pine trees
It is!!! Loved it -Owen
Bro I did the same. Drove around mexico and lived there for 8 months with another american family but had zero money.
Haha nice bro -Owen
That "I'm not the kind of guy to take a lot of pictures" "yeah.. and like f* you" had me dying😂 Truth is often hilarious
Haha ya it was funny cause I always want to be nice, but just thought that would make the point more strongly and help him more -Owen
Super important point. I've told myself similar "I'm not the kind of guy" BS in the past. Thank you for the life changing work!

Imagine the universe was a creative project. What do creative projects need? They need time. They need energy. They need hands. Creative projects start small. You could argue they start from nothing more than the spark of idea, aka the big bang. Then they grow in scope and complexity. Everyone on the project, aka every atom in the universe, is delegated to a task that contributes to its progress, be it menial or profound.
Some projects take hours. Some projects take weeks. This project began 13.8 billion years ago and does not seem close to wrapping up. We are the most recent recruits to this project. What stresses us out is that we’re temps. We have no idea what the deadline or the deliverable is, and we know we won’t be around long enough to find out, and we don’t like it. No one likes being a temp, especially if they start to identify with the role. And we identify with our role hard.
The thing is it’s just a role. Most temps grow into more sophisticated and substantial roles. The single celled organism that died in like a day was certainly a shittier temp role than the human organism temp role. But these two roles are made of the same stuff, just put together in more sophisticated and substantial ways. When you leave this temp job, aka die, the project will still keep going. And more sophisticated and substantial roles will evolve as it does… recruiting all the same stuff that made a star, made a plankton, made you.
A temp is only scared to lose their job if there’s no opportunity on the other side. And this project has unlimited opportunities for growth, on this planet alone let alone others (humanity itself is just one small task force in this project). So what are you going to do about it? You could freak out and despair over your temp role. This seems to be a popular choice these days. Or you could crush the temp role while it’s in your hands - gain experiences, make contributions, learn lessons - to prepare for a bigger and badder role when the opportunity presents itself, which by the looks of this project it definitely will.
Your temp role, by definition, is disposable. In all likelihood the whole human taskforce is disposable. Nevertheless the role was funded. Nevertheless the taskforce was formed. However small, however replaceable, this seat is yours. You decide what you want to do with it.
If you decide to fuck off and kill time and grow bitter until the role is let go, that’s on you. Your resume. Your acumen. Your call. If you decide to be that temp who shrugs off the insignificance and goes all in on the job, punching above your weight and contributing to the creative project in a way that will likely never be recognized or remembered but will make you a stronger candidate for future roles, that’s on you too. Your resume. Your acumen. Your call.
The project moves forward either way.
Im curious to know whether or not owen read the law of one?
59:10 What percentage of your thoughts is fulfillment of biological drives? What percentage is egoic needs? What percentage is social conditioning? How are these needs running me and how many of these needs are truely mine?
Reminds me of the movie about the founder of mcdonalds ray Kroc, he starts off as an unsuccessful salesman who drinks a lot, and by the end hes super successful and happy. But what the movie doesnt cover is 10 years later he relapsed into alcoholism and died 4 years after checking into a rehab center…..

White Samba strikes again right in the jugular of the procrastination bone!
Owen if you would ever write a book I´d read it. Maybe something to do to distract you when you´re 98 😁
Thanks yes I'll do it when I'm old! -Owen
WOW.

Thank y Owen for these brilliant insights! Your every lecture feels like +1 iq point to my mind xD
Ok.
So nightclubs let's say loud Environment. Is it best to only approach girls who give youveyr contact before you approach ? Girls who don't notice you until you walk up to them ? Or either way does not matter ?
Any thoughts on Alfred Adler psychology?
