Summary

Almost 40: The largest population of us are almost 40- welcome to the next level kids. - Learn the difference between assets and liabilities - Gain momentum, wisdom and confidence - Gain and grow your own inner space - stop looking into outers pace; look inward and learn - If someone wrote a eulogy about you what would they say about you today? - "Live Life as if Everything is Rigged in Your Favor"- Rumi - Not all will share your good morals and good values -accepting this is reality and a wake up call - Keep forth the good work, there will be a threshold that will peak within all social media, real estate, investments etc- this means -Have a stable means of real income - (not social posting) and know the bubble will always burst, be prepared, be smarter - You do not have to buy into the HYPE! Fuck what everyone else is doing - do you. - From 30-40 what are you doing with your life to improve and help others? What are your greatest contributions - I do genuinely still believe that everyone has a good heart and they have the ability to change and live a life that they have dreamed of - Admit that you are not perfect & perfection does not exist - The bigger your platform or success grows, the more hater, jealous individuals and hardships will come - You can recalibrate what really is of plus value in your life & detach from tech - Get Financially smart with your own CPA - don't be dumb and listen to others who have nothing in common with your finances - I still believe that integrity will always win and perhaps -- doing something that matters - set the trends, set the tones, be the change. Happy Birthday to all you 1982 crazy kids. My Little Pony Forever xx ck

0:00.0	Hi guys, welcome to the Wabi-Savi podcast. This is episode number 81. So you might be inching up on 40,
0:13.1	just like myself. I figured since I am almost 40, I should probably talk about it, even though
0:20.2	I hate to say it, but it pains me a bit.
0:23.6	I am excited about getting a bit older, but I also, you know, I guess I just sort of fall under
0:29.9	that typical societal norm and stigma that the older you get, maybe, you know, the more, uh, I actually don't know what all the stigmas are, but you,
0:42.4	you know what I'm talking about.
0:44.5	Milestone birthdays are also another part of society in which we tend to over celebrate.
0:52.8	And I don't think it's that important I suppose some of the best
0:56.6	birthdays I've ever had were just random birthdays so I would say embrace every single one that you
1:02.9	have but more so than that celebrate your friends I've always thrown parties for my own birthdays

1:30.7	or my heart to yours. And so I watch my mother do that as a child. Oh, yeah no say,
1:36.7	will meet, koa, sodatsu, children learn by what their parents do, not by what their parents say.
1:43.4	So naturally, I never show up for a meeting or some
1:47.7	sort of event. If I'm able to bring a gift, I will bring a gift. Anyways, I hope you guys had a
1:56.8	great Easter weekend. And now we'll start the show. Taking into consideration that we all
2:03.9	will pay taxes and we will all die, we should enjoy the years that we have because they are
2:11.5	limited and that is a sure thing. And when it comes to becoming almost 40, there were a lot of very hard lessons
2:19.5	from the time I turned 30 in New York City to where I am right now, virtually weeks away from
2:25.8	the day. Doing a lot of introspection, there's a term inner space instead of outer space
2:33.9	that we should really be exploring most of the time,
