0:00.0	What is up everybody? Welcome to another episode of AMA Live. I'm your host Tom
0:04.7	Bilyu and I'm going to be answering your questions, which by the way, if you have any questions,
0:08.8	you can send them to connect at impacttheory.com. If you want to remain anonymous,
0:14.0	just say you want to remain anonymous. Otherwise, we'll read your name out out of appreciation for
0:19.5	you sending them in. And kicking us off today is keep bet. So question. I tend to not follow through
0:27.4	on lucrative opportunities I identify. I think it's because subconsciously I don't believe I'm worthy
0:31.6	of the outcome success. Therefore, I sabotage myself and bask in the fake glory of how great it would
0:37.5	be achieving this, but don't actually put in the massive action necessary to see it through.
0:42.3	I'm currently reading the new Psycho Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz and also doing the meditations
0:49.6	based on Dr. Joe D'Spen's book You Are the Placebo, which I have also read and watches interviews

1:19.0	holding back from going all in. And I think the only thing that holds people back from going all in,
1:25.2	and I'm not even sure that I buy the self worth thing, I mean, maybe, but I think it all at the end
1:32.0	of the day comes down to your afraid something is going to happen. So even if I really crawl inside
1:38.6	the bag of unworthy, there's something there where you feel like it's not going to happen for me,
1:46.4	and therefore I'm going to look stupid. I think all boils down to that, though. I think it
1:54.1	all boils down to your worried about disappointing yourself, embarrassing yourself, letting yourself down,
2:02.7	climbing some way up the ladder of success, only to slide back down. And I think that the only way
2:11.8	through that is to not believe an ounce of that bullshit. And I can't tell you like how often I
