00:00if you clicked on this video without
00:02getting offended by the title then good
00:04job if you got offended by the title
00:06then you're you probably won't get
00:08anything from this video your mind is
00:10already made up on the subject and I
00:11won't be able to change it if you're in
00:13between where you're like hmm what does
00:15he mean by that then I feel like he'll
00:17get a lot out of this video on how to
00:19escape wage slavery and how
00:21entrepreneurship is Modern Survival now
00:24I've talked about this multiple times in
00:26the past I'm not anti-nine to five I'm
00:29not anti-working a job I think it's very
00:31useful I think it's an absolutely
00:33incredible path to go down if you want
00:35to climb up the ranks and get a
00:37high-paying job and you love that job I
00:39don't see anything wrong with that at
00:40all right and I have the argument that
00:43I'm going to present I also worked a
00:44nine to five for a good amount of my
00:46life just putting that out here I'm
00:48providing a perspective that is rather
00:50polarizing on how to escape wage slavery
00:53and it always splits people into two
00:54camps and you don't have to fall within
00:56either of those camps you can agree with
01:00just dive in you are a slave and I'm a
01:03slave and slaves don't know that they're
01:05slaves if everyone else is too because
01:08just because the slavery that everyone
01:11knows and hates of the past isn't a
01:14thing anymore doesn't mean that slavery
01:16doesn't still exist I'm talking about
01:18mental and financial slavery here slave
01:22noun a person who is forced to work for
01:24and Obey another and is considered to be
01:26their property the key word in that
01:28definition is force and force can have
01:31many different definitions and contexts
01:33so for the sake of this video we are
01:35going to use this one force noun
01:38strength or energy as an attribute of
01:41physical action or movement in other
01:43words there is something that is pushing
01:44you to do one thing over another thing
01:46and the stronger that something is that
01:49is forcing you in the other direction
01:51the more of a slave you are because a
01:53slave of the past they could if they
01:55knew they were slaves it was just normal
01:56then they didn't really maybe they were
01:59labeled as a slave but it was just thing
02:01but they could if they wanted to run
02:03away but they would be forced back
02:06because of death they would run out of
02:08shelter they would run out of food they
02:09would run out of water they were slaves
02:12not only because they were Chained and
02:14held there by force but they were also
02:16forced because it their survival
02:18depended on it so with that said
02:20survival plays a huge role in modern
02:24slavery and as we've discussed earlier
02:26human survival is not only physical the
02:29physical survival that we experienced in
02:31the past is mostly like automated now
02:33it's a lot easier we're much more
02:35comfortable in many parts of the world
02:36but human survival is mostly conceptual
02:39humans survive form self ego or Identity
02:43or however you want to label a
02:45distinction within Consciousness so
02:47let's go over some examples the first is
02:49political ideologies if you identify as
02:52a Republican or a Democrat and your
02:54beliefs are challenged then you will
02:56feel a physical threat response because
02:59of that your survival feels threatened
03:01because you consider that idea or belief
03:03system political belief system as a part
03:06of who you are your concept of self it's
03:10a psychic body it is not your physical
03:12body it is an idea the next example is
03:15sports teams have you ever noticed that
03:18some people get visibly angry when their
03:21sports team loses or someone says that
03:24their sports team sucks especially if
03:26they have money on the line because
03:28that's also tied to their survival and
03:30your team spirit for that team makes you
03:33feel like you are a part of something
03:35greater than yourself it is your
03:37spirituality that is a very good thing
03:39but it does not have to hurt your mental
03:41health you can detach from it the next
03:43example is your identity are you a
03:46coffee snob are you a health expert are
03:48you just a productive person that
03:50studied like productivity tips and
03:52tricks if someone tells you to stop
03:54drinking coffee how do you feel if
03:56someone tells you that the keto diet is
03:58the best diet how do you feel do you
04:00want to educate them on what you know is
04:02best or that you have experience with
04:04the ideology that you have attached to
04:06your identity and feel the need to
04:07survive even when you know that blanket
04:09statements don't reply to every single
04:11person on Earth across different
04:12cultures with different resources and if
04:14you're a productive person and you move
04:17to a new location how do you feel your
04:19routine just got destroyed out of
04:21nowhere you were surviving the form that
04:24is your routine through effort energy
04:26and habit you need a week or two to
04:29acclimate to the new location yeah and
04:31this is where I'm often a slave is to my
04:33routines or getting into a structure or
04:36a flow in life and then something
04:38threatening that and me feeling not very
04:40good because of it and I sometimes
04:42choose to stay inside and do my own
04:44thing rather than go and experience
04:46something that I know would be good for
04:47me so the last example here is just
04:49religious ideologies because even if
04:51people say that they don't want to
04:53convert you to their belief system they
04:56are still going to do it unconsciously
04:57because they're conditioned to reproduce
05:00their identity reproduction is a part of
05:03survival and if we survive on the
05:04conceptual level then any form of
05:07communication is trying to reproduce who
05:10we are with the ideas that form our
05:12concept of self that's how you create
05:14other human beings your parents did not
05:17only birth you physically but they
05:19created you mentally with the ideas that
05:22they shared and communicated to you do
05:24you start to see why I am so big on the
05:27Creator economy and understanding that
05:29is because you're creating selves you're
05:32creating selves around the world and
05:34that changes human behavior and what
05:36people do with their lives and that's
05:38what leads to evolution in a positive
05:41direction this is also why I'm very big
05:43on education self-education skill
05:45acquisition all this it goes much
05:47much much deeper than just oh you can
05:49make ten thousand dollars a month and
05:51this is also why there are bad parts of
05:53the crater economy because mental phone
05:55slaves often end up unsuccessful because
05:58all of the ideas that they're consumed
06:00assuming creates who they are so if
06:02they're watching all of this degenerate
06:04information and memes that tell them
06:07they hate their lives and they can only
06:08afford certain foods or that oh like
06:11it's so funny I have 10 cents in my bank
06:13account I can't afford chicken nuggets
06:15and so they think they that's the
06:16standard that they set for themselves in
06:18their in their mind for who they are
06:19because they program themselves to be
06:21that way rather than surrounding
06:23themselves with the digital people that
06:25they want to become like so with that we
06:28now need to understand how Society is a
06:30pyramid scheme of attention so if
06:32something is not given attention it does
06:34not exist and if it does not exist it
06:37must be given attention and should be
06:40able to be given attention in order to
06:43not only come to life but to survive so
06:45if you stop paying attention to who you
06:48are and feeding those thoughts then
06:49you'd experience death ego death that's
06:52what you hear if you're familiar with
06:54spiritual teachings and meditation
06:55that's what they're saying stop giving
06:57life to the negative aspects of what you
07:01don't want to pay attention to and so
07:02this brings two realizations the first
07:05is that you are contributing to
07:06unconscious destruction because how do
07:08Mega corporations grow and Thrive they
07:11start small and they form a power
07:13hierarchy over time fewer people with
07:15more power at the top and more people
07:17with less power at the bottom the top
07:19tier of the hierarchy which is the
07:21company itself and the executives and
07:24the board and all of that stuff they can
07:26only do what they do because a plethora
07:29of people are giving attention to the
07:31tasks visions and values from the bottom
07:34up there is a pyramid of attention going
07:37on here that allows the people at the
07:39top to not have to do or pay attention
07:42to any of the things under at least from
07:44like the detail the technical details
07:46they can pay attention to the big
07:47picture and help manage it but at the
07:50end of the day like they're not in there
07:51doing the work and so these Mega
07:53corporations would not be able to
07:55survive if the attention that's the root
07:57of it right you could say oh they're
07:59just workers what what do you have to do
08:01first in order to work it's pay
08:02attention attention is the root of all
08:04of it so the company would collapse if
08:07there was no attention to build that
08:09company or Focus get my book Thor to
08:12focus when it comes out end of September
08:13and so often people aren't paying
08:15attention to what they're actually
08:17paying attention to they don't see the
08:19depth behind their actions because at
08:21the bottom of the pyramid it's low skill
08:24grunt work like a cash here at
08:25McDonald's and by Nature it is
08:28impossible for every single person that
08:31is at the bottom to rise up to higher
08:33and higher levels simply because there's
08:35less people you there has to be the
08:37attention Filled from under and so this
08:40is why I see many nine to five jobs as a
08:43stepping stone to doing what you want or
08:45even job hopping until you get to where
08:47you want and so the problem is that the
08:49people at the bottom are unconscious of
08:51what they're actually contributing to
08:53like how McDonald's workers probably
08:56don't understand or care that they are
08:59poisoning millions of people across
09:00across the country because the cashiers
09:02they probably aren't giving attention to
09:05the nutrition knowledge to educate
09:06themselves on what it actually takes to
09:08be a healthy individual and if they did
09:10have that education or health knowledge
09:12then they probably wouldn't be working
09:14at the McDonald's there they would be
09:16doing their own thing working as a
09:18nutrition coach or working under a
09:20nutrition coach or whatever other jobs
09:22fall within the Health and Fitness
09:24domain they could go after that with the
09:27knowledge that they have because they
09:28paid attention to the things that gave
09:30them that knowledge another example is
09:31how military programmers write the code
09:34that kills millions of people on the
09:37other side of the planet or even a web
09:39designer that creates websites for a
09:42person that scams people and of course
09:43there's a quote for this where it's just
09:45forgive them for they know not what they
09:47do so that was the first point is that
09:49you are contributing to unconscious
09:51destruction the second point is that you
09:53can bring a conscious Vision into
09:55reality the only way to escape is to
09:58build your own thing but this is
10:00increasingly difficult because most
10:01people are more than just wage slaves
10:03they're slaves to many different things
10:05in their lives whether it be addictions
10:07their phone and other things like that
10:09it's taken you 20 30 and even 40 years
10:11to dig yourself into where you are now
10:13it's going to take some time to dig you
10:16back out so the way out is to become a
10:20value Creator which I've talked about
10:21before in the value Creator video
10:23because True Value is creative and
10:26creativity allows for change in
10:28emergence it allows for new levels of
10:31the hierarchy to be created and for you
10:33to create your own hierarchy to advance
10:35within if you don't understand this
10:37whole hierarchy thing that I'm talking
10:38about go and watch niching down is
10:40terrible advice for smart people and so
10:42if the only value that you have to
10:43provide is physical and not creative
10:46then you will get stuck in manual labor
10:48jobs if you are not creating anything
10:50with your mind that is because that's
10:52what all the people at the top are doing
10:54they're creative and they're using the
10:56power of their mind to create things
10:58that are valuable and distribute that to
11:01other people so as we always talk about
11:03you have to push the boundaries of the
11:05unknown learn and discover new
11:06potentials along the way acquire the
11:09skills necessary to build a purposeful
11:10product solve your own problems so you
11:12create a solution of True Value and
11:14start a business as a vessel to
11:16actualize your vision for the future I
11:18talk about this a lot in the one-person
11:20business model series so with this whole
11:22slavery thing I'm tired of both sides of
11:24the argument one side is like all nine
11:27to five workers are slaves and then the
11:28other side is like no no it's okay
11:30you're not a slave don't worry you're
11:32perfect the way you are both are wrong
11:35and both are right in some cases because
11:37when people say this online both are
11:40trying to maximize the engagement they
11:42get they don't zoom out and think if
11:43people are actually slaves and most
11:45people don't want to face that reality a
11:48published idea without depth is a
11:50disservice to humanity so the fact of
11:52the matter is that 95 percent of nine to
11:54five workers are slaves and your
11:57feelings do not matter here if you do
11:59feel threatened by someone talking to
12:01you through a screen then maybe there is
12:03some truth to what I'm saying you would
12:05only feel threatened if your survival
12:06were at stake so look inward to see what
12:08you're hiding from because most workers
12:10are the literal definition of a slave if
12:13you cannot stop showing up to work for
12:15your survival and have no skills to open
12:17other options immediately and you are
12:19the property or employee of a certain
12:22company that's a slave now this doesn't
12:24mean that you can't be happy everyone is
12:27a slave in one way or another and we all
12:29have waves of happiness in our life if
12:31happiness is the feeling we get when our
12:33attention is distracted from the vast
12:35unhappiness in the world then slavery
12:37may make some people happier than
12:39non-slaves because you can be happy at
12:42points in your life while being
12:44unconscious of the problems in your life
12:46that would make you unhappy until you
12:47have to develop the skill to fix those
12:49problems to become happy again and so
12:51again I'm not here to demonize nine to
12:53five jobs I see them as a stepping stone
12:55I also see beginner level business
12:57models as a stepping stone like
12:59freelance work agents you work coaching
13:01businesses and sometimes digital
13:03products they're all a stepping stone in
13:05your life's work and they can easily
13:06enslave you not all people that do this
13:08are slaves but the people that don't
13:10pivot and evolve Beyond them start to
13:13become slaves to them and so with this a
13:16personal brand however like a Creator
13:18the the topic of that the umbrella in my
13:22eyes is not a business model it is it is
13:24how you display your character in the
13:28digital world so that you can distribute
13:30your value through that character as if
13:32you were in the physical world your
13:35personal brand is you and you can get
13:37enslaved by the business model that you
13:40choose to operate from with that
13:42personal brand so now with that covered
13:44we need to talk about how
13:45entrepreneurship is Modern Survival so
13:48let's take a look at this graphic and
13:50you can see here there are a few things
13:52on the top there's the unknown which is
13:54where you get good dopamine which is
13:56uncomfortable on the bottom there's the
13:59known which is just a site cycle of
14:00cheap dopamine and comfort and in the
14:03middle is where meaning and fulfillment
14:05is found that's at the edge of the known
14:07or the edge of the unknown and so the
14:09white line is represents employment the
14:12dotted line represents entrepreneurship
14:14and so you can see that with employment
14:17you get that initial good dopamine
14:19because you're making progress but then
14:21the work starts to become more and more
14:23repetitive you know what you're doing
14:25you probably won't get promoted you
14:27don't Advance up the ladder and things
14:29just remain the same for the rest of
14:31your life and you quickly go into the
14:34known and just a cycle of cheap dopamine
14:36you become a monkey in a cubicle but
14:38with entrepreneurship you go up and down
14:40and up and down and you have much more
14:42control over the balance in your life
14:45the good dopamine to cheap dopamine and
14:48the skill required to stay at the edge
14:50and Find meaning and fulfillment because
14:53your psyche is wired to hunt imagine our
14:56ancestors walking by a bare Bush every
14:58day it doesn't serve their future at
15:00time but one day it grows new berries
15:02somebody walks by it they notice and
15:05that novelty causes excitement they
15:07either gather the berries or remember
15:08them later so they can survive longer
15:11and so when you get stuck in a nine to
15:12five or freelance work or agency work or
15:15any of the new digital nine to fives you
15:17start to live in the Eternal known you
15:20can't make new discoveries in the known
15:22you can't hunt you get bored depressed
15:25and see life as meaningless because the
15:26only dopamine you get is from
15:28superficial sources you never take risks
15:30push into the unknown and discover new
15:32knowledge tools and potentials that
15:34raise dopamine levels in your brain you
15:36must evolve entrepreneurship is the path
15:38of uncertainty like slashing your way
15:41through the jungle you are required to
15:43learn skills that aren't taught in
15:44schools you are required to be okay with
15:46failure rejection and slow progress
15:48you're required to learn from your
15:50mistakes show up again tomorrow and push
15:52until you strike gold as an entrepreneur
15:54you hunt for your Survival by gathering
15:57knowledge creating a valuable product
15:58and putting it in front of people that
16:00could benefit from it and as I've
16:01discussed my path for doing this is to
16:04start a personal brand as the foundation
16:05solve your own problems in the real
16:07world which revolve around health wealth
16:09and relationships distribute your
16:11findings opinions and beliefs via
16:13writing start with a freelance or
16:15coaching service and get results sell a
16:17physical or digital product that
16:19requires less time invested once your
16:21audience grows make a hefty income in
16:23two to four years with persistence and
16:25iteration and then finally expand your
16:27vision for the future and build whatever
16:29you want to get there which could be
16:31software spaceships whatever you want
16:33and this is the entire process that I
16:35give with templates and education inside
16:37of digital economics so now we have to
16:40talk about the balance of skill and
16:42opportunity because I'm a slave to many
16:44things in my life but I would like to
16:45believe that I've escaped wage slavery
16:47because if my business got wiped from
16:49the face of the earth I could still
16:51create a product or service that someone
16:53else needs call email advertise and
16:55spread internet content to drive traffic
16:57to that offer make 5 to 10K a month and
16:59improve that the data I've gathered so
17:02why can I do this but most people can't
17:03it's because over the past 10 years I've
17:05learned graphic design web development
17:08digital art Photoshop illustrator
17:10copywriting psychology Marketing sales
17:13video editing audience building
17:15advertising product design course
17:17creation idea generation lifestyle
17:19design bodybuilding nutrition social
17:21media and more that most people struggle
17:24with with zero dollars to my name I
17:26could create a product or service and
17:27sell it to someone else that I know that
17:28needs it for example I could create a
17:30service that teaches people how to build
17:32landing pages that sell so I could
17:34charge a thousand to twenty five hundred
17:36for a four called boot camp depending on
17:39how I want to structure that offer I
17:40would Target new businesses that have a
17:42full website because that isn't even
17:44close to an optimal way to sell a
17:45product or service or I would Target
17:47students who want to learn a profitable
17:49skill outside of employment or I would
17:52Target creators that want the first step
17:53in monetizing their brand outside of
17:55platform Revenue I would spend three
17:57hours in the morning dming people and
17:58writing marketing content online and the
18:01thing is that people will read this and
18:02try to replicate it which I recommend
18:04you do but you have to understand that
18:06at this point me starting over again I
18:08have 10 years of experience I know the
18:10little nuances of all of this stuff so
18:12when you go to school your mind is
18:14narrowed on the select few skills that
18:16will make you employable or replaceable
18:19and with every skill that I learned
18:20outside of school I can spot multiple
18:23opportunities that allow me to make an
18:25income outside of a job and this effect
18:27compounds with the skills I've developed
18:29I can create 50 different products that
18:32I know will be profitable within the
18:34first six months of my effort simply
18:35because I've invested my attention in
18:38myself so if you want to do this
18:40yourself let's go over the steps for how
18:42you're going to do that step one is
18:44drown in new information to program your
18:46mind because most people are drowning in
18:48information that has nothing to do with
18:50their goals they don't have a vision
18:52goal or problem to interpret situations
18:54through because the chances are is that
18:56you've already read life-changing
18:57information but it didn't register in
18:59your awareness because you didn't have a
19:01goal to apply it to you could have read
19:02a book that was absolutely life-changing
19:04to another person but then you go and
19:06read it and you're like it was kind of a
19:08good book it wasn't that good and so
19:10with the goal of escaping wage slavery
19:12at the top of your mind you can schedule
19:14a minimum of 20 minutes dedicated to
19:16consuming information that will help
19:18with that goal you can buy books use
19:20your audible credits save podcasts
19:22follow new social accounts and add new
19:24videos to your watch later on YouTube
19:25you can get out of your house have a
19:27Notes app open on your phone and write
19:29down your discoveries as you immerse
19:31yourself in the information you will
19:33feel the dopamine in your brain on the
19:35hunt for a better life now the second
19:37thing you can do is study purposeful
19:39businesses that you aspire to build so
19:41now that you have a consumption habit of
19:43gathering good information you need a
19:45more practical goal to apply the
19:47information that you're learning so what
19:49business do you build to escape wage
19:51slavery you take mental note of the apps
19:53and activities you incorporate in your
19:55life on a daily basis you look at who
19:57you follow in the businesses they've
19:58built you buy a book or course on a
20:00specific business model that interests
20:02you you must discover a business model
20:04that you feel pulled to build one that
20:06you can become obsessed with it doesn't
20:08really matter which one it is an
20:10emulation is what helped me build my
20:12first successful business it helped me
20:14identify blind spots before I even got
20:17to them get in the habit of studying
20:19people you want to be like downloading
20:20and purchasing everything they have to
20:22offer and making a mind map of
20:24everything they have online social media
20:25profiles websites landing pages email
20:27sequences products Services lead magnets
20:30books everything reverse engineer what
20:32allows them to be successful if you
20:34don't know what to do after that I do
20:36not know what to tell you and step
20:37number three is to become your own
20:40dopamine dealer my friend and I were
20:42having a discussion the other day and
20:43I'll paraphrase what he said you know
20:45it's wild I remember asking you why none
20:47of your friends take action or follow in
20:49your footsteps I get it now people are
20:51dopamine junkies even businessmen the
20:53people that don't take action don't know
20:55how to replace the dopamine they are
20:56getting from their current habits with
20:58business so they either don't start or
21:00quit after a week because they couldn't
21:02get their hit and this made me think
21:03back to realize what actually worked for
21:05me I was constantly chasing the good old
21:07dopamine but in the right direction so
21:09here's my advice hold a loose idea of
21:12what you want in life money success
21:14peace fulfillment start building
21:16something anything that will make that a
21:18reality I would of course recommend a
21:21one-person business because it is long
21:23term learn what you want to learn the
21:25most to help build it skills courses
21:28websites logos whatever so you get your
21:30dopamine hit don't be afraid to change
21:32what you're doing if you get bored I
21:34attribute my unique success to shiny
21:37object syndrome I failed at seven
21:38different businesses and learned even
21:41more skills along the way just because
21:43they sounded interesting to me and what
21:45most don't see is that I wouldn't be
21:46here without those failures I had to
21:49become a modern renaissance man in order
21:51to make this business model work the
21:53skills I learned with each failure
21:54compounded into better opportunities my
21:57tweets wouldn't be the same without
21:58copywriting my web pages wouldn't be be
22:00the same without web design my profile
22:02picture and branding wouldn't be the
22:04same without Photoshop art the list goes
22:06on replace the habits that keep you
22:07enslaved with habits that will break you
22:09free it won't happen immediately be okay
22:12with that if you can stay on the path
