Our new Monday morning best friend. This smart table will bother you until you get all the stuff you need in your bag – including breakfast. THANKS, TABLE!

Wanna know how it works?Watch today’s TED talk on touch technology – from the guy who created this and many other shape-shifting designs. (From the geniuses at TEDxCERN.)

Sex ed for adults>>>

We all know where babies come from…and how to make them. But there’s always more to learn. These talks will teach us things we didn’t know about doing-the-do. 

Intending to do something isnt enough
✨
If you really want something then commit to it and put the systems in place necessary to create it✅
✨
Intending on creating a healthy lifestyle is bullshit but committing to it is what’s going to help you create it because it involves employing systems to achieve the result systems such as hiring a PT, dialing in your nutrition and meal prepping
✨
Intending on doing stuff is a cheap way of saying “I wish it happens” committing to it is the creator’s way of saying “it will happen” and owning their shit
✨
Intentions are hollow words but commitments are full of actions and systems
✨
Do you have intentions or commitments?

Holding a thought is like holding a breath - you’re gonna get uncomfortable
✨
Holding your breath doesn’t really make sense and intellectually holding a thought doesnt either but the difference is we don’t usually notice when we’re holding thoughts
✨
A thought can visit us and drift away when we aren’t paying too much attention to it but when we start labelling thoughts they linger for longer
✨
There’s no such thing as positive or negative thoughts they’re just thoughts like there’s no such thing as positive or negative breaths - they’re just breaths
✨
When we treat thought as though it’s neutral it can move along but clinging to it and labelling it is what prolongs our suffering
✨
You are not your thoughts

Recently I realised I was being a dick to someone and it’s really humbled me
✨
Its heartbreaking to know that I have contributed to the loneliness of beautiful women for most of my life because I was trying to take from them without seeing what they really need or want and just putting my needs ahead of our relationship
✨
A lot of us men do this because we’re treating beautiful women differently to other people and this is a form of discrimination
✨
When we do this we’re causing the destruction of beauty because taking from women causes them to retreat and that diminishes the presence of beauty in the world and what’s the point in living in a world without beauty?‍♂️
✨
Remember that the masculine makes it possible but the feminine makes it worthwhile - so if you’re trying to take from women they’ll end up leaving you and then nothing you do will be worthwhile
✨
Put yourself in her shoes and see your behaviour, would you be happy with it? Would you be ok with people trying to take from you and treating you different because of the money you make or the way you look?
✨
Didn’t think so bro, so stop it
✨

When you’re avoiding what’s difficult your life gets harder
✨
My life is really simple because I do what’s hard every day. I workout my mind and body and I say what needs to be said when it needs to be said without hesitation (most of the time lol)
✨
When I find myself holding back from what I know needs to be said it’s because I’m living in the fear of what could happen as a result of doing what needs to be done
✨
This is called living in a thought prison and it causes us to miss out on the expansive experience of life that we could be having if we were to treat thought as a visitor
✨
Fleeting and temporary is the nature of thinking and life - when we let it come and go we are truly free to experience life and all the wonderment that will unfold
✨
What do you need to say that needs to be said?

The Parthenon is comprised of pillars that support it
✨
Similarly when we’re building our great monuments of inner growth we can rely on the pillars around us to support our growth
✨
If you’re trying to do it all alone you can go fast but if you want real long term sustainable growth it’s all about teamwork
✨
I surround myself with a team of great people who help me execute my vision as well as call me out when I’m out of integrity with myself or my mission and this is why I’m able to stay in the game
✨
A lot of people quit when things get tough and that’s when my team supports me the most. If I ever feel like quitting or I’m getting tired of the constant growing pains my team is there to catch me
✨
Build your team of people who support you by being the one who supports others first and if they don’t reciprocate then move on and support someone else
✨
Team work makes the dream work baby
✨

Labelling a thought as positive or negative is like labelling a raindrop as positive or negative - it’s unnecessary to say the least
✨
Do you ever stand outside and swear at the rain? Do you ever grapple with raindrops and ask them why they torment you? No? Well what’s the difference between raindrops and thoughts?
✨
Thinking is helpful, it helps us throughout our lives from making decisions to working our jobs - the intention of treating thought as neutral is not to have us distrust our thinking but rather help us use it when it’s appropriate to use it✅
✨
Using a hammer to eat a bowl of cereal is an inappropriate use of the tool just like using the mind to analyse thought is an inappropriate use of the tool - when we learn to set the mind down instead of using it to analyse is when we truly free ourselves from the prison of overthinking
✨
You are perfect as you are, only thought would have you believe otherwise
✨

You can choose to drop it
✨
It would be great if we could choose what we think about but unfortunately life doesn’t work that way and we only get to choose what we focus on✅
✨
If you’re analysing thought to try and understand why something happened or didn’t happen recognise that you’re living through who you think you are which demands answers because it needs to reconcile what the event means about you
✨
The real you doesn’t give a fuck what anything means or doesn’t mean because it is never damaged by anything that’s ever happened because it is whole and complete
✨
The only thing that takes us away from our natural state of peace is believing a lie and the lie originates with whatever random thought is running through our heads in the moment
✨
How freeing it is to see that thought doesn’t have to mean anything
✨
How would your life be different if you could choose to drop whatever you’re thinking about in the moment?

Feelings don’t have to mean anything
✨
They come and go just like breath, if we let them! But holding on to feelings and analysing them only makes them linger for longer
✨
When we dig into our feelings and try to figure out where they’re coming from all we’re doing is judging and analysing which takes us further and further from the place we want to get to - where we were before the feeling
✨
To get back to that place all we need to do is drop the thinking, drop the analysis and come back to quiet
✨
Easier said than done I know but it starts with giving yourself permission to have nothing on your mind and from there you will find peace
