1
00:00:00,263 --> 00:00:02,240
Have you ever watched somebody present
2
2
00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:04,930
and they made a mistake or they stumbled?
3
3
00:00:04,930 --> 00:00:05,980
And right away,
4
4
00:00:05,980 --> 00:00:09,940
you liked them way more because they seemed more human,
5
5
00:00:09,940 --> 00:00:11,640
more personable,
6
6
00:00:11,640 --> 00:00:14,060
there's more humility in their presentation.
7
7
00:00:14,060 --> 00:00:15,530
If I'm saying that right.
8
8
00:00:15,530 --> 00:00:17,550
And so, the reason I'm mentioning this
9
9
00:00:17,550 --> 00:00:22,030
is because if you mess up big time when you're vlogging,
10
10
00:00:22,030 --> 00:00:25,490
and if it's gonna make people laugh at you, then publish it.
11
11
00:00:25,490 --> 00:00:26,690
You know, within reason.
12
12
00:00:26,690 --> 00:00:28,690
Like, for me, I gotta show you this one here.
13
13
00:00:28,690 --> 00:00:31,420
So I'll make room here for the upper third.
14
14
00:00:31,420 --> 00:00:36,420
Okay. So, I went for a walk once and I had this DJI Osmo,
15
15
00:00:37,181 --> 00:00:38,250
a gimbal I was using.
16
16
00:00:38,250 --> 00:00:41,900
And I was testing it out and I wasn't looking down.
17
17
00:00:41,900 --> 00:00:45,790
And I tripped and dude, it was the mother of all wipe outs.
18
18
00:00:45,790 --> 00:00:47,700
And I clued at my vlog,
19
19
00:00:47,700 --> 00:00:49,950
and this was I think about a year ago or so,
20
20
00:00:49,950 --> 00:00:50,800
but I included it.
21
21
00:00:50,800 --> 00:00:52,260
Don't cut that stuff out.
22
22
00:00:52,260 --> 00:00:53,410
You know?
23
23
00:00:53,410 --> 00:00:55,360
People like you for being you
24
24
00:00:55,360 --> 00:00:57,230 line:15%
as I explained earlier in the course
25
25
00:00:57,230 --> 00:01:00,010 line:15%
through the first couple of side-notes there.
26
26
00:01:00,010 --> 00:01:02,420 line:15%
So the bottom line is, just be you.
27
27
00:01:02,420 --> 00:01:04,610 line:15%
If you mess up, leave it in,
28
28
00:01:04,610 --> 00:01:06,690 line:15%
especially if people are gonna laugh at you
29
29
00:01:06,690 --> 00:01:08,760
because there's no better feeling than knowing
30
30
00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,580
that you've made somebodies day much better
31
31
00:01:11,580 --> 00:01:13,070
by making them smile.
32
32
00:01:13,070 --> 00:01:15,571
Makes you live longer too, and them.
33
33
00:01:15,571 --> 00:01:19,488
("Walk This Way" by Aerosmith)
34
34
00:01:20,570 --> 00:01:22,710
I find when I go on these long walks,
35
35
00:01:22,710 --> 00:01:25,450
I think much more clearly because you're exercising,
36
36
00:01:25,450 --> 00:01:30,030
you're releasing endorphins and serotonin in your brain.
37
37
00:01:30,030 --> 00:01:32,800
You know, that high you get after you finish working out.
38
38
00:01:32,800 --> 00:01:35,650
It's like that the whole time you go for a walk
39
39
00:01:35,650 --> 00:01:37,288
and whenever you have great--
40
40
00:01:37,288 --> 00:01:39,955
(crashing thud)
41
41
00:01:41,359 --> 00:01:43,359
(sighs)
42
42
00:01:44,880 --> 00:01:45,713
Ah.
43
43
00:01:47,630 --> 00:01:49,513
I just wiped out big time.
44
44
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:53,620
I don't know if we're still rolling,
45
45
00:01:53,620 --> 00:01:55,020
but I'm gonna keep it rolling (laughing)
46
46
00:01:55,020 --> 00:01:56,863
so you can laugh at me.
47
47
00:01:58,449 --> 00:02:00,100
(laughing) And not with me.
48
48
00:02:00,100 --> 00:02:02,260
Okay. Whoa.
49
49
00:02:02,260 --> 00:02:03,093
All right,
50
50
00:02:03,093 --> 00:02:05,510
let me make sure everything's still working here, good.
51
51
00:02:05,510 --> 00:02:06,970
Luckily I didn't wipe out on the road man,
52
52
00:02:06,970 --> 00:02:08,720
jeez Louise, I tell ya.
53
53
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:10,280
Oh, I almost did it again.
54
54
00:02:10,280 --> 00:02:11,120
All right, note to self,
55
55
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:14,140
get cleats next time (laughing) you go for a walk.
56
56
00:02:14,140 --> 00:02:16,400
All right, our life's too short not to laugh myself.
57
57
00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,350
What was I saying again?
58
58
00:02:18,350 --> 00:02:19,853
God, before I almost died.
59
59
00:02:21,170 --> 00:02:22,290
Oh yeah, that's right.
60
60
00:02:22,290 --> 00:02:25,100
So, you know that high you get after you go to the gym?
61
61
00:02:25,100 --> 00:02:26,880
It's kind of like that.
62
62
00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:30,600
That's a great feeling that you get when you go for a walk.
63
63
00:02:30,600 --> 00:02:31,780
And, what I do,
64
64
00:02:31,780 --> 00:02:34,210
is I stop every now and then when I'm going for a walk,
65
65
00:02:34,210 --> 00:02:35,470
without wiping out,
66
66
00:02:35,470 --> 00:02:37,180
but I stop (chuckling) every now and then,
67
67
00:02:37,180 --> 00:02:38,573
and then what I do is,
68
68
00:02:40,170 --> 00:02:42,003
I take some notes in my iPhone.
69
69
00:02:43,030 --> 00:02:44,540
Just life-changing notes for me.
70
70
00:02:44,540 --> 00:02:46,863
And my best decisions have come (laughing)
71
71
00:02:46,863 --> 00:02:48,730
when I've gone for walks.
72
72
00:02:48,730 --> 00:02:49,723
Another hot day.
73
73
00:02:51,839 --> 00:02:53,490
Some of the notes I take actually, look at that back there,
74
74
00:02:53,490 --> 00:02:54,970
isn't that gorgeous?
75
75
00:02:54,970 --> 00:02:56,862
We're gonna walk down there.
76
76
00:02:56,862 --> 00:02:58,970
I have to go down the road and around the block to get there
77
77
00:02:58,970 --> 00:03:02,350
but I'm not gonna die on my way down, okay.
78
78
00:03:02,350 --> 00:03:04,130
(laughing)
79
79
00:03:04,130 --> 00:03:08,260
All right, keeping up with my record everything in one take,
80
80
00:03:08,260 --> 00:03:10,473
ow I hurt my hand, ow.
81
81
00:03:13,080 --> 00:03:14,860
No, I write down all notes I have.
82
82
00:03:14,860 --> 00:03:15,770
And what I do is this,
83
83
00:03:15,770 --> 00:03:16,940
and I'm gonna show it to you actually.
84
84
00:03:16,940 --> 00:03:20,503
I'll do a little screen insert right here.
85
85
00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,213
What I do is, when I come up with ideas,
86
86
00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,280
I'll send myself an email when I'm walking.
87
87
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:30,110
And the subject line is really short
88
88
00:03:30,110 --> 00:03:31,360
but it's always the same.
89
89
00:03:32,214 --> 00:03:33,047
When I'm going for walks
90
90
00:03:33,047 --> 00:03:35,560
and want to add something to my vlog,
91
91
00:03:35,560 --> 00:03:39,014
I'll say "add vlog" in the subject line, like here.
92
92
00:03:39,014 --> 00:03:41,764
And then within Gmail or whatever email system you use,
93
93
00:03:43,770 --> 00:03:46,610
I'll basically do a search on that subject line.
94
94
00:03:46,610 --> 00:03:48,290
And I have all those unstructured notes
95
95
00:03:48,290 --> 00:03:50,330
that I can then use later.
96
96
00:03:50,330 --> 00:03:52,680
And right now, one of the purposes for this walk,
97
97
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:54,180
aside from vlogging, and wiping out,
98
98
00:03:54,180 --> 00:03:55,707
and making a fool of myself (laughing),
99
99
00:03:57,470 --> 00:04:00,220
is to come up with ideas for my next course.
100
100
00:04:00,220 --> 00:04:01,460
It's a course on business planning.
101
101
00:04:01,460 --> 00:04:03,390
And so, every now and then during this walk,
102
102
00:04:03,390 --> 00:04:04,810
I've been sending myself emails
103
103
00:04:04,810 --> 00:04:08,710
with a subject line "Add bp", like this, business plan.
104
104
00:04:08,710 --> 00:04:10,140
And that's how I make all my courses.
105
105
00:04:10,140 --> 00:04:12,180
It's all unstructured logic
106
106
00:04:12,180 --> 00:04:15,810
until I have all of the content ready.
107
107
00:04:15,810 --> 00:04:18,893
I do a search in Google on my subject line here,
108
108
00:04:20,402 --> 00:04:23,300
which is Add bp, business plan,
109
109
00:04:23,300 --> 00:04:25,390
and then I'll kinda throw everything into Microsoft Word
110
110
00:04:25,390 --> 00:04:27,790
and put headings on H1, H2.
111
111
00:04:27,790 --> 00:04:29,650
Whatever, put a table of contents in,
112
112
00:04:29,650 --> 00:04:30,660
and that's the crux
113
113
00:04:30,660 --> 00:04:34,063
of how I create the stuff for my courses.
114
114
00:04:35,810 --> 00:04:38,110
Anyway, I'm gonna keep walking, actually,
115
115
00:04:38,110 --> 00:04:41,840
I think I left my water bottle over there when I wiped out.
116
116
00:04:41,840 --> 00:04:46,840
So I promised you I'd explain what this hat is for,
117
117
00:04:47,060 --> 00:04:48,023
what it's from.
118
118
00:04:50,420 --> 00:04:52,640
I'll stand here before I bend down and pick it up,
119
119
00:04:52,640 --> 00:04:56,120
it's actually from one on my heroes,
120
120
00:04:56,120 --> 00:04:59,130
a wonderful man named Roberto Clemente
121
121
00:04:59,130 --> 00:05:02,170
who died right before I was born, I think in 1972.
122
122
00:05:02,170 --> 00:05:04,010
I'm dating myself yet again.
123
123
00:05:04,010 --> 00:05:06,660
And what Roberto Clemente did, he's a beautiful soul,
124
124
00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:11,440
he got 3000 hits in baseball, it's a huge milestone.
125
125
00:05:11,440 --> 00:05:12,420
Huge milestone.
126
126
00:05:12,420 --> 00:05:14,030
And then during the off-season,
127
127
00:05:14,030 --> 00:05:18,860
he was on a flight to a wonderful charitable mission
128
128
00:05:18,860 --> 00:05:21,480
somewhere I think in Central America.
129
129
00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:23,733
And God bless him, that plane crashed.
130
130
00:05:26,025 --> 00:05:27,730
I don't know why people don't make a movie about that guy.
131
131
00:05:27,730 --> 00:05:28,713
He was amazing.
132
132
00:05:29,830 --> 00:05:31,810
And so, when I go on walks,
133
133
00:05:31,810 --> 00:05:33,467
I wear hats that kind of inspire me.
134
134
00:05:33,467 --> 00:05:36,733
And this is my favorite hat, number 21, Roberto Clemente.
135
135
00:05:37,810 --> 00:05:38,850
He really inspires me.
136
136
00:05:38,850 --> 00:05:40,910
Okay, I'm gonna pick up my water, and my shake,
137
137
00:05:40,910 --> 00:05:42,020
and a couple other items that fell (laughing)
138
138
00:05:42,020 --> 00:05:44,530
out of my pocket here, when I almost died.
139
139
00:05:44,530 --> 00:05:45,810
Which you almost saw live.
140
140
00:05:45,810 --> 00:05:47,430
I mean, this is reality TV here.
141
141
00:05:47,430 --> 00:05:50,910
Just, thank God it wasn't on the road.
142
142
00:05:50,910 --> 00:05:52,840
Okay, so, I'm gonna keep walking
143
143
00:05:52,840 --> 00:05:55,160
and I'll come back and visit you again soon
144
144
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:56,363
when I'm down there.
145
145
00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,193
And then,
146
146
00:05:58,193 --> 00:06:01,600
I'll show you the beautiful park there at the reservoir.
147
147
00:06:01,600 --> 00:06:02,751
Thank you, see you soon.
148
148
00:06:02,751 --> 00:06:07,751
("I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)" by The Proclaimers)
149
149
00:06:09,120 --> 00:06:11,150
Steve Jobs used to always used to go on very,
150
150
00:06:11,150 --> 00:06:12,550
very long walks,
151
151
00:06:12,550 --> 00:06:14,980
and he came up with a lot of his most brilliant ideas
152
152
00:06:14,980 --> 00:06:16,426
on these long walks.
153
153
00:06:16,426 --> 00:06:18,790
Now, he did them alone usually,
154
154
00:06:18,790 --> 00:06:21,750
but sometimes he went on a walk with his best friend,
155
155
00:06:21,750 --> 00:06:24,980
Larry Ellison, who's the founder of Oracle,
156
156
00:06:24,980 --> 00:06:27,890
which is a big software company here in the Bay area.
157
157
00:06:27,890 --> 00:06:31,520
But I really believe that if you take a walk
158
158
00:06:31,520 --> 00:06:32,990
at least once a week by yourself,
159
159
00:06:32,990 --> 00:06:35,600
you kinda think about where you are in life
160
160
00:06:35,600 --> 00:06:36,690
and where you want to be.
161
161
00:06:36,690 --> 00:06:39,230
Think of it like it's a rudimentary gap analysis.
162
162
00:06:39,230 --> 00:06:42,700
Here's where you are now, here's where you want to be.
163
163
00:06:42,700 --> 00:06:45,300
And if you just think about how do I fill that gap,
164
164
00:06:45,300 --> 00:06:46,940
do it on a weekly basis.
165
165
00:06:46,940 --> 00:06:50,354
I promise you, you'll be amazed with the outcome.
166
166
00:06:50,354 --> 00:06:54,880
I think of it like, take that walk, change your life.
167
167
00:06:54,880 --> 00:06:57,520
And I used to play golf by myself
168
168
00:06:57,520 --> 00:06:59,100
every now and then as well,
169
169
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:02,370
and I call-up my best business ideas that way.
170
170
00:07:02,370 --> 00:07:05,380
Let me just take you down from this tree there.
171
171
00:07:05,380 --> 00:07:06,213
Thank ya.
172
172
00:07:07,200 --> 00:07:09,110
So I would come up with a lot of my best ideas
173
173
00:07:09,110 --> 00:07:12,320
by just going on a walk and by the way,
174
174
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,660
there's a couple of songs that I'm playing
175
175
00:07:15,660 --> 00:07:19,880
in the background during this vlog.
176
176
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,060
And there's this new system in YouTube
177
177
00:07:22,060 --> 00:07:23,770
in the top, right-hand corner
178
178
00:07:23,770 --> 00:07:26,510
where you can ask people to answer a question.
179
179
00:07:26,510 --> 00:07:27,640
So just for fun,
180
180
00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,720
see if you can answer what songs I'm playing.
181
181
00:07:30,720 --> 00:07:32,360
They all have the word walk in them.
182
182
00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,930
You probably recognize at least one of them.
183
183
00:07:34,930 --> 00:07:37,080
I gotta take a look at my leg here.
184
184
00:07:37,080 --> 00:07:41,220
So first of all, this here, it's Lululemon.
185
185
00:07:41,220 --> 00:07:43,060
Canadian brand represents.
186
186
00:07:43,060 --> 00:07:44,833
No damage at all, let's see.
187
187
00:07:46,530 --> 00:07:48,570
Oh I got some scratches, not too bad.
188
188
00:07:48,570 --> 00:07:49,403
Not too bad.
189
189
00:07:49,403 --> 00:07:50,530
And if it scars,
190
190
00:07:50,530 --> 00:07:51,363
I don't care
191
191
00:07:51,363 --> 00:07:54,700
because I always wanna look back and think to myself,
192
192
00:07:54,700 --> 00:07:56,620
dropped something again, sorry (laughing).
193
193
00:07:56,620 --> 00:07:58,877
I always want to look back and think to myself
194
194
00:07:58,877 --> 00:08:01,010
"that was a pretty funny moment."
195
195
00:08:01,010 --> 00:08:02,470
Anyway, I hope you got a good laugh
196
196
00:08:02,470 --> 00:08:04,830
out of my wipe out there as well.
197
197
00:08:04,830 --> 00:08:07,286
I'll check back with you in a couple minutes.

("Walk Of Life" by Dire Straits)
199
199
00:08:09,580 --> 00:08:12,230
And I love to actually just sit by the water,
200
200
00:08:12,230 --> 00:08:13,300
listen to the water,
201
201
00:08:13,300 --> 00:08:17,050
it's very soothing and therapeutic as well.
202
202
00:08:17,050 --> 00:08:19,150
And I come up with my best ideas that way.
203
203
00:08:19,150 --> 00:08:22,880
And I take out my iPad and I kinda map out where I am now,
204
204
00:08:22,880 --> 00:08:23,713
where I wanna be.
205
205
00:08:23,713 --> 00:08:26,630
I've got that cool little iPad pencil.
206
206
00:08:26,630 --> 00:08:28,947
Kinda helps me to kinda structure where I wanna be,
207
207
00:08:28,947 --> 00:08:31,680
and a fun way too because I love using technology
208
208
00:08:31,680 --> 00:08:32,750
and I'll show you what I mean.
209
209
00:08:32,750 --> 00:08:34,853
Let me just cross the street here.

211

and I'll show you what I'm drawing as well.
213
213
00:08:45,110 --> 00:08:47,380
It's so relaxing just sitting here
214
214
00:08:47,380 --> 00:08:50,540
and being inspired by the water.
215
215
00:08:50,540 --> 00:08:52,070
It's a lot of fun, it's a lot of fun.
216

00:08:52,070 --> 00:08:53,383
I really enjoy it.
217
217
00:08:54,440 --> 00:08:55,790
So I'll show you what I do.
218
218
00:08:56,730 --> 00:09:01,730
I've got an iPad pencil and it's just Bluetooth.
219
219
00:09:02,380 --> 00:09:05,460
And it really helps me to kinda map out
220
220
00:09:05,460 --> 00:09:09,709
where I am in my life and where I want to be going.

224
224
00:09:14,874 --> 00:09:15,707
Actually, what I think I'll do
225
225
00:09:15,707 --> 00:09:16,780
is I'm gonna bring you closer to me
226
226
00:09:16,780 --> 00:09:19,573
so I can talk to you a little bit more closely.
227
227
00:09:21,020 --> 00:09:23,313

There we go, that's more comfortable now.
230
230
00:09:30,750 --> 00:09:34,530
I use Microsoft OneNote, which is a free download.
231
231
00:09:34,530 --> 00:09:36,690
And the cool thing about using Microsoft OneNote,
232
232
00:09:36,690 --> 00:09:37,760
another hot day,
233
233
00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:42,170
is that it's free and you can synchronize it
234
234
00:09:42,170 --> 00:09:44,810
with Microsoft's version of Dropbox called OneDrive.
235
235
00:09:44,810 --> 00:09:47,120
Which isn't that great, but it's free, whatever.
236
236
00:09:47,120 --> 00:09:51,470
And whatever you write here into your tablet,
237
237
00:09:51,470 --> 00:09:53,570
gets duplicated on your iPhone
238
238
00:09:53,570 --> 00:09:55,070
and on your desktop computer as well,
239
239
00:09:55,070 --> 00:09:57,490
whether it's Windows or a Mac.
240
240
00:09:57,490 --> 00:09:59,060
Centrally stored.
241
241
00:09:59,060 --> 00:10:01,260
And so, I love to just kinda map out
242
242
00:10:01,260 --> 00:10:04,123
where I wanna be in life using Microsoft OneNote.
243
243
00:10:04,123 --> 00:10:06,530
Now, I've used other things before like,
244
244
00:10:06,530 --> 00:10:09,823
I've used PowerPoint, which is not that hard to use.
245
245
00:10:11,320 --> 00:10:16,160
You can actually drag and drop circles and images, whatever,
246
246
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:18,210
and I don't use PowerPoint just for presenting,
247
247
00:10:18,210 --> 00:10:20,400
I use it kind of for visually mapping
248
248
00:10:20,400 --> 00:10:22,060
where I wanna go next in my life.
249
249
00:10:22,060 --> 00:10:27,060
Or, some of my courses, I have Excel Dashboard.
250
250
00:10:27,170 --> 00:10:30,210
I like to kinda map out what's it's gonna look like
251
251
00:10:30,210 --> 00:10:34,910
right here within OneNote or within PowerPoint,
252
252
00:10:34,910 --> 00:10:35,970
which is fun.
253
253
00:10:35,970 --> 00:10:37,630
There's lots of other cool programs too,
254
254
00:10:37,630 --> 00:10:39,310
and you can get lost in this as well.
255
255
00:10:39,310 --> 00:10:43,350
It's so fun, kinda mapping out your goals visually
256
256
00:10:43,350 --> 00:10:45,670
instead of just writing them down.
257
257
00:10:45,670 --> 00:10:48,513
I enjoy the whole process, it's a lot of fun.
258
258
00:10:48,513 --> 00:10:50,600
It's really, really relaxing.
259
259
00:10:50,600 --> 00:10:53,183
(upbeat music)
260
260
00:10:55,961 --> 00:10:57,360
When I used to work for other people,
261
261
00:10:57,360 --> 00:10:59,150
which I hated (laughing),
262
262
00:10:59,150 --> 00:11:01,050
I would always take off one or two days a year
263
263
00:11:01,050 --> 00:11:03,770
when I wasn't physically sick but mentally,
264
264
00:11:03,770 --> 00:11:05,333
I was kinda stressed out.
265
265
00:11:06,190 --> 00:11:08,440
You could do a lot of harm to yourself in your career
266
266
00:11:08,440 --> 00:11:09,830
if you're not in the right frame of mind.
267
267
00:11:09,830 --> 00:11:10,760
You go to work, you know,
268
268
00:11:10,760 --> 00:11:13,010
you might snap at someone verbally, whatever.
269
269
00:11:14,703 --> 00:11:15,630
I'd take one or two days off.
270
270
00:11:15,630 --> 00:11:18,770
I remember when I worked in New York at Goldman years ago,
271
271
00:11:18,770 --> 00:11:19,900
everyone was cool where I worked,
272
272
00:11:19,900 --> 00:11:21,130
but I was kinda burned out.
273
273
00:11:21,130 --> 00:11:24,370
And I remember I used to take a day off every now and then,
274
274
00:11:24,370 --> 00:11:26,750
go to Central Park, go to a movie by myself,
275
275
00:11:26,750 --> 00:11:28,520
just kinda sit on a park bench like I am right now
276
276
00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:32,260
and just kinda reassess where I am in my life and really,
277
277
00:11:32,260 --> 00:11:33,110
where I wanna go.
278
278
00:11:33,110 --> 00:11:36,090
And my best career and life decisions have come
279
279
00:11:36,090 --> 00:11:39,480
when I've just kinda had the solitude of listening in nature
280
280
00:11:39,480 --> 00:11:40,993
like this and going on a walk.
281
281
00:11:42,610 --> 00:11:44,790
I recommend everybody do it.
282
282
00:11:44,790 --> 00:11:45,861
And if you can do it once a week,
283
283
00:11:45,861 --> 00:11:48,750
doesn't have to be an entire day of events,
284
284
00:11:48,750 --> 00:11:49,900
but if you can do it once a week,
285
285
00:11:49,900 --> 00:11:51,290
I really recommend doing it
286
286
00:11:51,290 --> 00:11:54,010
and really assessing where you are in your life
287
287
00:11:54,010 --> 00:11:56,390
and where you wanna be longer term.
288
288
00:11:56,390 --> 00:11:58,530
And if you're not happy professionally
289
289
00:11:58,530 --> 00:11:59,750
doing what it is you're doing,
290
290
00:11:59,750 --> 00:12:02,490
then go on that walk, take that walk.
291
291
00:12:02,490 --> 00:12:05,940
And kinda think about what would make you happiest in life
292
292
00:12:05,940 --> 00:12:07,240
and make that happen.
293
293
00:12:07,240 --> 00:12:08,920
And if I can be resourceful in any way
294
294
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:11,693
and helping make that become a reality, let me know.
295
295
00:12:14,340 --> 00:12:16,430
I'm creating a business plan course right now.
296
296
00:12:16,430 --> 00:12:17,780
And what I'm trying to do,
297
297
00:12:17,780 --> 00:12:19,610
is I'm trying to visualize it and target it
298
298
00:12:19,610 --> 00:12:22,870
so that people working for other people
299
299
00:12:22,870 --> 00:12:24,800
can create this business plan,
300
300
00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:27,500
fill in this business plan template I'm creating.
301
301
00:12:27,500 --> 00:12:30,800
And then, decide whether or not to quit their job.
302
302
00:12:30,800 --> 00:12:32,610
And I think if you work for somebody else,
303
303
00:12:32,610 --> 00:12:34,960
which we all have to at one point in our lives,
304
304
00:12:36,690 --> 00:12:39,800
I think that about 70% of your time should be spent thinking
305
305
00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:43,730
about work at that company, and doing your job,
306
306
00:12:43,730 --> 00:12:45,120
and making quota, whatever.
307
307
00:12:45,120 --> 00:12:46,090
But the other 30%
308
308
00:12:46,090 --> 00:12:49,250
should be you mapping out a company you wanna start.
309
309
00:12:49,250 --> 00:12:51,850
And, you only have to be right in business one time.
310
310
00:12:53,700 --> 00:12:56,620
Keep filling in templates, and dreaming,
311
311
00:12:56,620 --> 00:12:58,890
and filling out goals.
312
312
00:12:58,890 --> 00:13:01,520
Write them out and just make business plans over,
313
313
00:13:01,520 --> 00:13:02,770
and over, and over again.
314
314
00:13:04,270 --> 00:13:06,670
You gotta watch out because you will get what you want
315
315
00:13:06,670 --> 00:13:07,620
if you keep doing that.
316
316
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:10,763
And again, you only have to be right in business one time.
317
317
00:13:11,820 --> 00:13:14,040
Just keep making business plans over, and over,
318
318
00:13:14,040 --> 00:13:17,590
and over again until you have something tangible
319
319
00:13:17,590 --> 00:13:22,590
you think that you can use to become ultimately free.
320
320
00:13:23,470 --> 00:13:28,083
Free to be you, free to be able to live life on your terms.
321
321
00:13:29,430 --> 00:13:31,930
Freedom from politics, freedom from bureaucracy,
322
322
00:13:31,930 --> 00:13:36,930
freedom from people that you work for feeling threatened.
323
323
00:13:37,630 --> 00:13:39,390
People might think they hired their assassin
324
324
00:13:39,390 --> 00:13:41,610
because you're so good at what you do.
325
325
00:13:41,610 --> 00:13:45,010
And you're so sick and tired of dumbing it down
326
326
00:13:46,630 --> 00:13:49,680
and not trying to create the best possible work
327
327
00:13:49,680 --> 00:13:50,840
in certain situations
328
328
00:13:50,840 --> 00:13:53,063
because you might come across as a threat.
329
329
00:13:54,230 --> 00:13:56,730
And I know it might sound elusive to a lot of you,
330
330
00:13:58,674 --> 00:13:59,870
it will happen to you if it hasn't yet
331
331
00:13:59,870 --> 00:14:02,670
in your career working for somebody else.
332
332
00:14:02,670 --> 00:14:05,780
If it's a big organization, you do a great job,
333
333
00:14:05,780 --> 00:14:08,020
and somebody feels threatened by you.
334
334
00:14:08,020 --> 00:14:10,440
It's not a meritocracy, you don't eat what you kill.
335
335
00:14:10,440 --> 00:14:12,050
That's not the way the world works.
336
336
00:14:12,050 --> 00:14:15,280
There's politics involved until you start your own company.
337
337
00:14:15,280 --> 00:14:17,610
And again, you only have to be right in business one time.
338
338
00:14:17,610 --> 00:14:19,160
And there's a bunch of other people here,
339
339
00:14:19,160 --> 00:14:20,950
I think they wanna sit here and I feel bad,
340
340
00:14:20,950 --> 00:14:21,783
hogging this bench.
341
341
00:14:21,783 --> 00:14:22,616
So I'm gonna get up now
342
342
00:14:22,616 --> 00:14:24,410
and I'll come back to you in a couple minutes.
343
343
00:14:24,410 --> 00:14:25,738
Thanks.
344
344
00:14:25,738 --> 00:14:27,339
Do you want me to take that picture for you?
345
345
00:14:27,339 --> 00:14:28,998
(bright music)
346
346
00:14:28,998 --> 00:14:32,560
Can we ask what you're doing?
347
347
00:14:32,560 --> 00:14:36,113
Yeah, I'm just doing a video shoot,
348
348
00:14:37,413 --> 00:14:39,293
so I've got a vlog.
349
349
00:14:39,293 --> 00:14:40,200
Do you wanna be in it?
350
350
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:41,033
Sure.
351
351
00:14:41,033 --> 00:14:42,280
All right, great.
352
352
00:14:42,280 --> 00:14:44,620
Let me pick this up, hold on a second, sorry.
353
353
00:14:44,620 --> 00:14:46,900
All right, let me grab this, make sure that the mic is on.
354
354
00:14:46,900 --> 00:14:49,040
Was that shooting while it was rotating?
355
355
00:14:49,040 --> 00:14:49,972
Yeah, that's okay though.
356
356
00:14:49,972 --> 00:14:50,805
It's all right.
357
357
00:14:50,805 --> 00:14:51,702
All right, so I'm Chris.
358
358
00:14:51,702 --> 00:14:52,940
What's your name?
359
359
00:14:52,940 --> 00:14:53,773
Meg.
360
360
00:14:53,773 --> 00:14:54,606
Meg, pleasure.
Nice to meet you.
361
361
00:14:54,606 --> 00:14:55,439
How are you you?
Sherry.
362
362
00:14:55,439 --> 00:14:56,920
Sherry, nice to meet you as well.
363
363
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:58,963
Let me see if I can get you guys in the shot here.
364
364
00:14:59,901 --> 00:15:01,193
This thing I'm holding here,
365
365
00:15:02,400 --> 00:15:03,790
it's called a gimbal.
366
366
00:15:03,790 --> 00:15:08,060
And basically, it allows me to kinda swing around the camera
367
367
00:15:08,060 --> 00:15:10,030
and it stays stable when I'm walking.
368
368
00:15:10,030 --> 00:15:10,963
Yeah.
Right?
369
369
00:15:14,640 --> 00:15:17,030
I have a vlog I do every day.
370
370
00:15:17,030 --> 00:15:20,300
It's for business and just personal development stuff.
371
371
00:15:20,300 --> 00:15:23,322
I'm a little bit of a nerd, I've got this new toy.
372
372
00:15:23,322 --> 00:15:24,300
I'm playing around with it a bit.
373
373
00:15:24,300 --> 00:15:26,009
I wiped out earlier using it.
374
374
00:15:26,009 --> 00:15:27,090
(women exclaim)
375
375
00:15:27,090 --> 00:15:27,980
Yeah, I was okay though.
376
376
00:15:27,980 --> 00:15:28,813
It was right by the road.
377
377
00:15:28,813 --> 00:15:32,288
I'm just grateful that it wasn't on the road itself.
378
378
00:15:32,288 --> 00:15:33,210
Could be worse.
379
379
00:15:33,210 --> 00:15:34,043
Yeah.
380
380
00:15:35,077 --> 00:15:35,910
Okay.
381
381
00:15:35,910 --> 00:15:37,153
So I'm just having fun.
382
382
00:15:38,323 --> 00:15:41,800
Yeah, I saw you talking to it up the road--
383
383
00:15:41,800 --> 00:15:43,220
When we first came in.
384
384
00:15:44,760 --> 00:15:47,010
Yeah, and I attached it to a tree as well
385
385
00:15:47,010 --> 00:15:47,870
and I walked up to it.
386
386
00:15:47,870 --> 00:15:49,523
I had a separate microphone.
387
387
00:15:55,550 --> 00:15:57,400
I wanna help my students as much as I can.
388
388
00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,791
Oh, so I teach online.
389
389
00:15:59,791 --> 00:16:00,927
How wonderful.
390
390
00:16:00,927 --> 00:16:01,760
It's just fun, I just love it.
391
391
00:16:01,760 --> 00:16:02,593
What do you teach?
392
392
00:16:02,593 --> 00:16:05,120
So, I teach business and personal development.
393
393
00:16:05,120 --> 00:16:06,622
Great.
394
394
00:16:06,622 --> 00:16:07,472
Yeah, it's fun.
395
395
00:16:09,100 --> 00:16:10,687
Mark Twain had this great quote, he said
396
396
00:16:10,687 --> 00:16:13,677
"the two most important days in your life are, number one,
397
397
00:16:13,677 --> 00:16:15,557
"the day you're born. And the number two,
398
398
00:16:15,557 --> 00:16:16,996
"the day you find out why."
399
399
00:16:16,996 --> 00:16:17,910
(laughing)
400
400
00:16:17,910 --> 00:16:18,743
And for me, it's to teach.
401
401
00:16:18,743 --> 00:16:19,576
I just wanna teach.
402
402
00:16:19,576 --> 00:16:20,653
I wish I did it years ago.
403
403
00:16:21,623 --> 00:16:23,223
Well good for you.
404
404
00:16:23,223 --> 00:16:24,938
(chuckling) Something I enjoy doing.
405
405
00:16:24,938 --> 00:16:27,576
Oh, it's great, you seem exuberant.
406
406
00:16:27,576 --> 00:16:28,736
It's wonderful.
Oh thank you, thank you.
407
407
00:16:28,736 --> 00:16:29,720
That's great.
408
408
00:16:29,720 --> 00:16:32,070
I worked for other people for years, I hated it,
409
409
00:16:32,070 --> 00:16:32,903
I was frustrated.
410
410
00:16:32,903 --> 00:16:35,650
But I'm glad I was frustrated 'cause it kinda pushed me to
411
411
00:16:36,530 --> 00:16:37,694
go in this direction.
It's very motivating.
412
412
00:16:37,694 --> 00:16:38,570
Great.
413
413
00:16:38,570 --> 00:16:39,950
Yeah, to do something I enjoy.
414
414
00:16:39,950 --> 00:16:41,130
Otherwise, what's the point?
415
415
00:16:41,130 --> 00:16:41,963
Get out of bed every day
416
416
00:16:41,963 --> 00:16:44,823
and you work with people that aren't fair to you.
417
417
00:16:46,070 --> 00:16:47,080
But I look back in hindsight
418
418
00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:49,020
and everything that happened to me,
419
419
00:16:49,020 --> 00:16:52,560
I'm grateful it happened even though I got fired once.
420
420
00:16:52,560 --> 00:16:53,537
I remember the time thinking
421
421
00:16:53,537 --> 00:16:55,040
"God, why is this happening to me? It's not fair."
422
422
00:16:55,040 --> 00:16:56,880
But, I'm happy it happened.
423
423
00:16:56,880 --> 00:16:58,470
It was your path.
424
424
00:16:58,470 --> 00:16:59,303
Exactly, weld you own path.
425
425
00:16:59,303 --> 00:17:00,570
Failing is good for all of us.
426
426
00:17:00,570 --> 00:17:01,403
Exactly.
427
427
00:17:01,403 --> 00:17:02,600
That's right.
Exactly.
428
428
00:17:02,600 --> 00:17:04,730
Gets you closer to your next success or--
429
429
00:17:04,730 --> 00:17:05,563
Exactly.
430
430
00:17:05,563 --> 00:17:06,910
And you think you're out a lot.
431
431
00:17:06,910 --> 00:17:08,970
Yeah.
Yeah, definitely.
432
432
00:17:08,970 --> 00:17:10,283
Well, that's great.
433
433
00:17:13,000 --> 00:17:14,920
Can we look at your vlog or blog?
434
434
00:17:14,920 --> 00:17:16,043
Yeah, absolutely.
435
435
00:17:16,970 --> 00:17:17,920
Just go to YouTube.
436
436
00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:20,513
If you need to write it down.
437
437
00:17:20,513 --> 00:17:22,000
But if you go to YouTube and you just do a search.
438
438
00:17:22,000 --> 00:17:25,190
Just search my name Chris, that's C-H-R-I-S.
439
439
00:17:25,190 --> 00:17:28,323
Last name is H-A-R-O-U-N.
440
440
00:17:29,270 --> 00:17:31,070
It's a daily vlog, you'll see.
441
441
00:17:31,070 --> 00:17:32,500
Okay.
442
442
00:17:32,500 --> 00:17:33,640
Say the last name again.
Oh sorry.
443
443
00:17:33,640 --> 00:17:35,899
H-A-R-O-U-N.
444
444
00:17:35,899 --> 00:17:36,732
Gotcha.
445
445
00:17:36,732 --> 00:17:39,510
And you'll get a kick out of it because today,
446
446
00:17:39,510 --> 00:17:42,041
the first thing I did was I wiped out.
447
447
00:17:42,041 --> 00:17:43,830
And I'm not gonna edit that out, I would include it.
448
448
00:17:43,830 --> 00:17:44,720
Great.
449
449
00:17:44,720 --> 00:17:45,553
You'll get a good kick out of it,
450
450
00:17:45,553 --> 00:17:48,180
you can laugh at me, not with me.
451
451
00:17:48,180 --> 00:17:51,150
If that brought a smile to your face then I've done my deed
452
452
00:17:51,150 --> 00:17:52,180
for the day (laughing).
No.
453
453
00:17:52,180 --> 00:17:54,043
For me, it would just be like ow.
454
454
00:17:55,180 --> 00:17:57,310
I'm a physician and--
oh you are, okay, right.
455
455
00:17:57,310 --> 00:17:58,930
These things are really gritty.
456
456
00:17:58,930 --> 00:18:01,170
So, make sure, as painful as it is,
457
457
00:18:01,170 --> 00:18:02,259
that you scrub the heck out of with water.
458
458
00:18:02,259 --> 00:18:03,928
Yes, I will.
459
459
00:18:03,928 --> 00:18:05,550
Absolutely.
460
460
00:18:05,550 --> 00:18:06,888
It can turn into trouble.
461
461
00:18:06,888 --> 00:18:08,140
It can turn into big trouble.
462
462
00:18:08,140 --> 00:18:10,040
So, just a do a really good scrub,
463
463
00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,150
and even as it gets sore and tight,
464
464
00:18:12,150 --> 00:18:13,383
just get in there and keep scrubbing it.
465
465
00:18:13,383 --> 00:18:15,490
Keep it clean, yeah.
466
466
00:18:15,490 --> 00:18:18,220
It'll scab up and then again (scrubs skin).
467
467
00:18:18,220 --> 00:18:19,230
It's a badge of honor.
468
468
00:18:19,230 --> 00:18:20,230
Every time I'll look at it, I'll laugh.
469
469
00:18:20,230 --> 00:18:21,537
If it's a scar, I'll be like
470
470
00:18:21,537 --> 00:18:22,509
"oh I remember that, remember that was funny."
471
471
00:18:22,509 --> 00:18:23,770
(chuckling)
472
472
00:18:23,770 --> 00:18:24,603
That's great.
473
473
00:18:24,603 --> 00:18:26,220
Positive attitude I guess, but whatever.
474
474
00:18:26,220 --> 00:18:27,053
This is pretty inspiring, so enjoy.
475
475
00:18:27,053 --> 00:18:28,270
Isn't this great?
476
476
00:18:28,270 --> 00:18:29,340
Oh it's beautiful.
477
477
00:18:29,340 --> 00:18:30,173
And thanks for taking the time--
478
478
00:18:30,173 --> 00:18:31,600
Of course, yeah, it's fun.
Yeah to explain to us--
479
479
00:18:31,600 --> 00:18:32,660
I'm trying to figure it out.
480
480
00:18:32,660 --> 00:18:36,120
I'm trying to do this panoramic thing where it turns.
481
481
00:18:36,120 --> 00:18:39,290
And it records as it turns slowly.
482
482
00:18:39,290 --> 00:18:41,180
So you see that in movies, right?
483
483
00:18:41,180 --> 00:18:42,420
Where it seems like high speed
484
484
00:18:42,420 --> 00:18:43,900
but they're hording really slowly
485
485
00:18:43,900 --> 00:18:45,350
as the camera's moving slowly.
486
486
00:18:45,350 --> 00:18:47,170
And these things are cheap enough now
487
487
00:18:47,170 --> 00:18:48,390
that anybody can do it.
Wow.
488
488
00:18:48,390 --> 00:18:49,223
I know.
489
489
00:18:50,090 --> 00:18:53,190
I'm trying to set it up so that it pans from there
490
490
00:18:53,190 --> 00:18:56,070
all the way over here to me where I'm sitting.
491
491
00:18:56,070 --> 00:18:57,820
Even if I'm not in it, I don't care.
492
492
00:18:57,820 --> 00:18:58,793
And then back.
493
493
00:18:59,730 --> 00:19:02,590
You'll be able to see a bunch of birds and the trees moving
494
494
00:19:02,590 --> 00:19:03,423
maybe a bit,
495
495
00:19:03,423 --> 00:19:05,130
it's not that windy today which is great for recording.
496
496
00:19:05,130 --> 00:19:07,100
That's why I have this fuzzy thing up here.
497
497
00:19:07,100 --> 00:19:08,269
My kids call it a pet.
498
498
00:19:08,269 --> 00:19:09,738
(laughing)
499
499
00:19:09,738 --> 00:19:10,571
Well, that's great.
500
500
00:19:10,571 --> 00:19:11,404
For the wind.
501
501
00:19:11,404 --> 00:19:12,330
Yeah, exactly.
502
502
00:19:12,330 --> 00:19:13,163
Good.
503
503
00:19:13,163 --> 00:19:13,996
I'm trying to figure it out.
504
504
00:19:13,996 --> 00:19:15,170
It's fun though.
505
505
00:19:15,170 --> 00:19:16,950
I don't have a job, I have a passion.
506
506
00:19:16,950 --> 00:19:18,290
Love what I'm doing, I'm a nerd.
507
507
00:19:18,290 --> 00:19:20,009
I'm trying to figure this out, it's just fun.
508
508
00:19:20,009 --> 00:19:20,842
All right.
Which is great.
509
509
00:19:20,842 --> 00:19:21,681
It's fun, yeah.
510
510
00:19:21,681 --> 00:19:22,514
Enjoy, well good luck.
511
511
00:19:22,514 --> 00:19:23,455
And thanks again, appreciate it.
512
512
00:19:23,455 --> 00:19:24,288
Thank you, thank you.
513
513
00:19:24,288 --> 00:19:26,130
I'm a landscape photography person,
514
514
00:19:26,130 --> 00:19:29,090
but this is really fun to see what you're doing.
515
515
00:19:29,090 --> 00:19:30,520
And if I see you down here again soon,
516
516
00:19:30,520 --> 00:19:32,710
I've ordered a new drone.
517
517
00:19:32,710 --> 00:19:34,350
It comes out soon.
518
518
00:19:34,350 --> 00:19:35,810
I don't think we can drone anywhere down here
519
519
00:19:35,810 --> 00:19:36,830
but I have it in my backpack,
520
520
00:19:36,830 --> 00:19:37,780
or I will have it in my backpack.
521
521
00:19:37,780 --> 00:19:39,710
I'll show you everything about it.
522
522
00:19:39,710 --> 00:19:40,867
It's a lot of fun.
523
523
00:19:40,867 --> 00:19:42,377
All right, have a great day, nice to meet you Chris.
524
524
00:19:42,377 --> 00:19:44,232
Nice to meet you too, take care.
525
525
00:19:44,232 --> 00:19:45,065
Wish you the best.
526
526
00:19:45,065 --> 00:19:46,613
Okay, thank you, appreciate it.
527
527
00:19:46,613 --> 00:19:49,863
(bright chiming music)
528
528
00:20:02,140 --> 00:20:05,650
So, let's say that you might wanna get an MBA,
529
529
00:20:05,650 --> 00:20:07,140
you're not sure.
530
530
00:20:07,140 --> 00:20:08,470
You currently work in tech,
531
531
00:20:08,470 --> 00:20:10,650
and you wanna work on Wall Street,
532
532
00:20:10,650 --> 00:20:11,483
and you're not sure
533
533
00:20:11,483 --> 00:20:13,780
if you should go to business school or not.
534
534
00:20:13,780 --> 00:20:17,510
I'm gonna show you how I map out these goals
535
535
00:20:17,510 --> 00:20:19,440
and these conundrums in my life.
536
536
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:21,770
And I'll just record what's on the screen here.
537
537
00:20:21,770 --> 00:20:24,900
And I'll try this a little bit so you can watch me.
538
538
00:20:24,900 --> 00:20:25,733
And then again,
539
539
00:20:25,733 --> 00:20:30,733
I'll just do an insert to have this picture and picture
540
540
00:20:31,320 --> 00:20:33,120
in the top corner there for you.
541
541
00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:38,120
So, what I'm gonna do is, first of all, go to record screen.
542
542
00:20:38,530 --> 00:20:39,610
3, 2, 1.
543
543
00:20:39,610 --> 00:20:41,460
Good, it's recording, nice.
544
544
00:20:41,460 --> 00:20:42,310
All right, great.
545
545
00:20:45,332 --> 00:20:48,210
And move a little bit closer so you can hear me.
546
546
00:20:48,210 --> 00:20:49,543
Let me just move this up.
