| 0:00.0 | What's up guys? Welcome back to the flow state of mind podcast Jordan here just with a solo episode today |
| 0:04.8 | Aaron's actually helped boating and I'm holding down the fort and I have something that's really short into the punch for you guys today that's going to help you to understand how to overcome things like fear failure. |
| 0:15.7 | The feeling of guilt and shame if you fuck something up or not being as good at something as you wish you were |
| 0:22.4 | you know not being as far along in whatever journey you're trying to pursue or especially comparison |
| 0:27.5 | right looking at other people alongside of you and feeling that pain and the resentment because |
| 0:32.0 | somebody else has something figured out and you don't or somebody's further along in their |
| 0:35.9 | journey all of these things kind of |
| 0:37.8 | kind of connoisse and come together. And this is going to be a process and a frame that you can use |
| 0:42.2 | to be able to push through those things. So I'm going to jump right in, guys. It's going to be |
| 0:45.4 | kind of short into the punch today. Look, I'm going to explain this in a story format that I actually |

| 1:17.7 | or it's some sort of like an acid combination or solution. And it causes a reaction, right? |
| 1:22.2 | And it causes a burn. And it's burning Ed Norton's hand. So he tells them that he has to leave it |
| 1:27.1 | there. And at first, |
| 1:28.3 | Brad Pitt holds his hand down on the table as Ed kind of struggles to pull it away. I know some of you guys |
| 1:33.3 | might recognize this scene. Great movie, by the way. But eventually, Brad releases his hand. |
