Life is like your challenge. You got a big wall in front of you, right? An illusion of a big wall, illusion of an obstacle avoid shortage, created by time and ego. Times a man-made construct, ego's created by illusions of fear. Need to be right, need to be offended, need to separate, superior, inferior, offended, guilty, anxiety, all these things. Well anyway, most people go their whole life and they're running

to try to get around this wall or they're running this way around this wall or they change directions

or they try to dig way under the wall their whole life. Try to go over. Me, I try to access the

fucking key. Right? You just turn a tiny little key opens the door. There's so many things in my

life that I used to work so hard

create void shortages at obstacles so I can be my own hero and say, oh, I grew up poor, oh, I used to use drugs, oh, I used to do, right? So I can be a hero, right? I lost everything. That's bullshit. All you need to do is access the key, I get out of your own way.

Think about how am I putting time in my way.

How is my ego answering that?

And that's why meditation is so important. It's just a baseline. It's a baseline to say, here's peace, okay? And peace's analogy would be a car on top of a hill. Real tall hill. How much energy does it take to keep a car on top of the hill?

Not one finger. I can hold it. Any San Francisco hill, my car's up there. One finger, I just keep it on there. Now, if that car starts rolling, right? What most people do instead of, right when it starts rolling, getting back on top of the hill, right, going back to center, What most people do is they allow that thing to keep going downhill.

So by the time you get home from work, right, going back to center. What most people do is they allow that

thing to keep going downhill. So by the time you get home from work, right, you come home

to your beautiful fiancee and you feel run over. Why? I think about momentum that car's

gain. So every time my goal, always like a master in karate with 12 people attacking me,

isn't to resist all the attacks. It's simply

how quickly can I go back to center? How quickly can I go back to center? And I'm literally

one of the only litmus tests or quantitative analysis I have in my day is how many times

was I off center. So you want to be tested, have three teenage daughters, go outside at four in the

morning and see that car missing. See how quickly you go back to center. I'm serious, right?

Or, but I do. Like, it's very rare, like, not only would I go off center for a day, a week, a month,

it could even last longer. And I wonder why, because I was putting faith into what? The wrong energy? And I get more of it than all of a sudden something else would happen. I remember saying when things were going bad in my life, I'm like, oh, wow, the hits keep on coming, right? I know you said, right? What was I expecting now? I put faith into more hits coming. Right now, I just see more and more favor coming.

Right?
