Bottom line is, taking all of this knowledge from the past into my mind, no matter from which angle I'm watching right now, I do believe that we all have a source. There is a source. So whether you call that source, it's the universe. Whether you call the source, it is the God. Whether this source is the infinite energy, I don't know. There are so many different expressions to it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But when I look at all these teachings, all are always pointing at one and the same thing. Let's just take the expression of yin and yang, the symbol everybody knows in the world. And there is that nice saying, yin and yang have a mother. The mother sometimes simply being illustrated as one circle. So yin and yang as the expression from duality, polarity, existence of number two.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Where do the two come from? They must come from one. So simple like in our way, you are there, I am here, one, two, where do we come from? There must be something that we have as a common denominator. And this source is the only thing that can connect us. Because it's not your family. It's not my family. They're still different. That is not enough. Going just looking at we are humans.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Animals same. Whatever and whoever gave us the possibility to be here is the same who gave you the permission, is the same who gave me the permission and the blessing. And this is what I think. This is the level of mind. This is the level of connection that never leaves you lonely. This is the one that I mean. Being connected to the source.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
First of all, I cannot speak without it and it would make sense to everyone. That's already the first very, very difficult part. That's why my intention is never to say what is it. The only thing I can do is to give pointers. But ultimately, there's only one person who will be able to find it out. And it's not me finding it out for somebody else. Everybody will find out for himself or herself.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So every human being, I do think, is at a different level of his growth, of his development. And everybody gets what he needs exactly in the moment where he is in. Which is why I think everybody at this moment in time is exactly where he needs to be for the next elevation to take place. The only thing you need to do is look at yourself right now and just find out what is it that makes you unhappy.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
What exactly is it that at this moment in your life is binding you and restricting you from moving on. And this is the same question for everyone. But what you ultimately need to tackle is different. In the past, I sometimes played Super Mario and Luigi. Yeah. And it's the same if you don't manage level number one. You won't see level number two. The challenges from number two won't come.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The end boss from number two is not going to come. First you finish level one. But once number one is finished, you won't face the same stuff anymore. And there is something along this line where it sometimes is like a game at the same time. Don't take it so serious. It helps.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Two things that right now would come to my mind. There is always the struggle between doing and being. Doing, I would ask, why are you doing? So why? Why do you want to go into action? Mostly, there is a goal. The goal, why do you have that goal? Because you're aiming at receiving something that in the moment where you have it, apparently you are lacking.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So that means this type of goal setting, in my perspective, I would automatically refer to it already that your goal setting already comes from a space of lack. You feel like you're lacking something. That's why you need to do. You feel like you're lacking something. That's why you need to educate yourself. Okay? So this is the one direction.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Now coming back, maybe it sounds again too philosophical. Connected with the source. There's nothing to add and there's nothing to take away from you. So apparently when somebody has this very, very high ambition of doing something, achieving something, then most likely the chances are there this is not coming from a connection to the source.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It is coming from the idea of wanting to nourish or create an identity, an identity that represents something that you think you want to represent. So this is the one area, the doing versus the being. And then the second thing is that ultimately goes hand in hand. with this way of living your life is that one thing is being forgotten along the line.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The truth of that whoever and whatever you are creating and are intending to create and are intending to gather now and starting to attain things, your attainment maximum is going to last 100 years. That is the other truth. And I do believe people understand exactly what I said. But there comes the fight now again. The fight between, yes,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I do think that in this world there have always been different streams, different forces, one of them leading to the betterment of humanity, one of them leading to the destruction of humanity. And I do think that there are types of wisdom and knowledge existing out there that very easily without any additional knowledge Help for anything else can be very useful for the people nowadays.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
between this very strong identity that wants to just maintain itself and the other side of just forget about your identity. Be as you are. That's it. No matter what you're going to attain, you have it for 100 years after what is gone. So just be. Don't stress yourself too much with what you don't have. Well, unfortunately... And this is always going to continue like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Unfortunately, there are always three ways how you're going to learn this. Sometimes people just need to have the experience to realize, okay, I did it, I got it, now I realize I don't need it. But in the first place, you need to have it. First way of learning. Second way of learning. You do trust a certain teacher. You do trust a certain guide or a mentor.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You just copy the way how he's living his life. So your approach is you just copy because you see, oh, apparently the person lives a good life. So you just copy. Second way of learning. And the third way of learning is you maybe have like a teacher or a master. He tells you some wise words. You contemplate about it. You think about it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And because you are thinking about it, it already puts you on the alternative path without you needing to try it for yourself. And there will always be people in this world in these three categories. Because simply said, telling somebody, look, don't put your hand in the fire. They're still going to do it. But latest when they do it like two times, three times, then it's done.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But maybe that is also already the lesson involved in this person's life. You have this goal in the mind. You put all your energy, all your effort into trying to achieve that. You're 20 years old. You're trying. You're 30 years old. You're trying. 40 years already, you're still trying. 50 years, you still haven't let go of the idea. Well, at some point, hopefully, you see exactly that...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
that senseless approach of how you personally already wasted 30 years of following a goal with the conclusion of two things. Number one, you haven't achieved it yet. Or number two, you didn't have the right way of achieving it. But the bottom line is you have two ways now what to do. Let go of the idea that you need it and redirect your life or redirect your approach
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
of how you still want to achieve that goal if you don't want to let go of it. But apparently one of these two things is not right. And the more you want your life now, let's say, in the future to be quite different than what you're used to, the more you need to be able to let go. Let go of patterns, let go of the way of thoughts that you had in the last years and months.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Now, if nothing changes about that, there will not come a new life.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You don't need to go anywhere. The only thing you need to do is take a moment, contemplate about yourself, go into yourself and find the answers there and then decide for yourself which part and what type of contribution would you like to make gift to the world that you're living in. I ultimately think this is what I'm doing.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So let me draw you a picture. I was a four-year-old boy. having father and mother, Asian origin, being refugees from Vietnam Laos, meaning they ran away from the war, coming to Europe, coming to Germany with the idea that for the children to have a better security on the one side, feeling more safe in Germany without the instability that they witness in their own country.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And so, of course, father and mother with this idea put a lot of pressure in early ages already in terms of you need to be good at school, you need to achieve, you need to prove yourself. So this is the education from father and mother. At the same time, with the age of four, I went into a Shaolin Kung Fu school, learning martial arts.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And every martial artist practitioner probably knows teachers and masters usually are not the ones telling you, oh, yes, you did that very good. Yes, very well. No, they just say, okay, more, deeper, faster, harder. So bottom line is from the age of four growing up, the only thing that in a way I felt was actually you're never enough.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
No matter what I brought home in terms of grades, if it was a B, why was it not an A? If it was an A, why is it not an A plus? If I did already 100 push-ups, question is, why don't you make 150? If I was fast already, it was still not fast enough. So constantly this type of never enough. Okay, ultimately meaning, and this is all now I can just tell you 40 years later, but now I can see it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Ultimately meaning that at some point, this little boy started simply to build up a shield, build up such a shield to be less dependent anymore on what other people think about me. meaning I just started to rely everything in my life purely on what I think.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
At the same time, building up emotional blockages and emotional walls, nothing to penetrate and at the same time also nothing to express to the outside. So now...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
having entered into a very new circumstance in my life where I need to take into consideration the opinion and the emotional state of my beloved, of my partner, of my son, I can feel how my old patterns sometimes are still trying to sneak in. And so the only thing to do is, what to do to break patterns? Number one, you need to see you have one.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And number two, you need to replace old patterns, which ultimately mean patterns, it's habitual behavior, it's habits. How do you build habits? By continuous practice. behavioral patterns that you continuously do. So there is something about consistency and continuity that ultimately builds a pattern.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this is now where, for example, in this field of martial arts, that's exactly what it's about, consistency of having a training regimen every day. This is not helpful to like six days per week do nothing and then you go one day to the gym and give your everything. It's better you have some type of consistency throughout the whole day. This is what builds patterns, healthy patterns.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And so similar like this, I would describe now what is somebody supposed to do? Number one, look at yourself. And see yourself. We are all not perfect. But according to the circumstances that you are facing right now today, what type of character do you think, with what do you want to equip your character that he is able to go through this current times in the best possible manner?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
What is not useful for you anymore, try to get rid of it and get your new skills in.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And then train, of course.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I would say it's diversity and choice. This world is filled with so much choice, meanwhile, that it's difficult in a way to take a decision which direction to go, what is right to do, what is not right to do. But ultimately, it's only yourself who knows the answer, which means it comes to the essential point, learn more about yourself. This is where it starts.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
From this moment, there's one thing I can tell by myself what I would absolutely prevent when it would come, let's say, to the education or what I share with my son. Like I said, I felt I was never enough. There was always something that additionally needed to be done. So, which literally means for me, for my son, there is nothing to be done. There is nothing he has to achieve.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
If there would be something, it is stay connected. So in terms of I don't see myself as somebody who is now having the responsibility to shape my son. No, I only provide the framework. I try to provide the most safe framework for my son. He can try out whatever he wants. If he fails, he will learn by himself to get up again and keep trying. So, you know... to fail, and then to continue.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I just want to build up this framework as good as I can to make him feel safe. But trial and error is what I do believe is the way how you find yourself. So definitely not being spoiled, but at the same time also not like keeping something away from him where I make him feel like he's not enough.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So ultimately I do think in the modern way of how to express it in all these attachment theories, very simple. Of course it's the secure way of being a stable, own-built, self-made, self-sufficient person. individual who knows his own value. Why? Because he failed and got up.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This world is filled with so much choice that it's difficult to take a decision which direction to go, what is right to do. And so there is a lot of suffering with the skills that you are developing through Kung Fu training involves methods and practices that give you the ability to do this. But there are five hindrances that make it difficult for you to still keep your goal in the mind.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Whatever shows up right now at this moment, 2025, it didn't start in 2025. Whatever appears right now, sometimes it's the result of how things have been handled, how the education has been from previous years, whether it's the last 10 years, whether it's the last 20 years. So it's not necessarily what did the generation right now did wrong, let's say.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
No, it's also the question of what did the previous generation missed to keep passing on. that ultimately led to the result that we have nowadays. And this is the question where I do think it's multilayered.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Let's put the context first. Take a symbol. Just you have a goal setting. You set yourself whatever goal it is. You have your goal. So your mind is set on the goal normally. The five hindrances now simply describe there are five mental states. that would actually make it difficult for you to still keep your goal in the mind, whatever goal that is.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because if you have the wrong perspective of who you are, what you are, everything else in this lifetime you base your decisions on is just not going to be placed in the right direction.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The number one, for example, is called sensual desire. Sensual desire means you are too receptive for any type of pleasurable feeling in regards to your five senses. You're being too quickly attracted when you see something beautiful. You're too quickly attracted if you smell something tasty. You're too quickly distracted when you have physical touch.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So the first hindrance means you're losing the goal already because in the moment something pleasurable is being presented to you, your mind has shifted already. So that means that first mental state only means, look, be aware of what is it that you are very easily attracted to. It doesn't say it's bad. It doesn't say it's good.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It just says in the context of you want to reach your goal, how to reach the goal the quickest, be focused with your energy. meaning be focused with the mind. Don't lose the goal from the mind. Whatever you do from the moment of waking up until the evening, whatever you do, keep the goal in the mind. This is the quickest way of making this goal become real.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Number two, simply said, you don't like discomfort. You don't like challenges. You don't like hardship. In that TEDx talk, I described it like you're walking along the path and then suddenly it starts to rain, but you don't like rain. So instead of you just continue to follow the path, you are starting to make your mind busy about what you don't like.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And already that means the mind starts to shift again, losing the focus of the goal. So this idea... Hindrance number one. Hindrance number two. Actually, you can easily say it like this. This is the goal. Two things not to do. Spend your time enjoying. Don't do this. Or spend your time rejecting that things are not the way how you imagine them to be. Both of these things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
One is you follow pleasure, and the other thing, you're rejecting any challenges. Both of these things is something to be aware of when it comes to stay focused along the path.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
No, even for example, like in the book or even now when we talk about we have the five hindrances, we have the 14 virtues, we have the eight rules, we have the four here and the 13 here and the 16th. It's a very good guideline because it makes it easy for us humans to have something like really structured. There are four steps, there are six steps, there are five steps, whatsoever.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
What I want to say is, just in this way, it's also that only discipline wouldn't be helpful if in the first place you do not possess the ability to practice see it, to realize it, to be aware of it. Meaning you have discipline, but you are never aware actually when is the moment actually appearing right now that this sensory desire is hitting in. You're not aware of it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So the discipline wouldn't help you if you don't have this awareness. So always meaning, I do think that there are different ways different qualities of the mind that come into play for you to adjust yourself properly.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yes.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is, for example, where I very much appreciate so many different teachings that are meanwhile existing, freely available, for example, through the social media, including breath work, including yoga practices. All of them, if you have a proper teacher,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I'm very sure that this is exactly what is starting to raise your awareness for something that in this field, when you're spending some time, we refer to as energy. If you're not aware of your own inner layer, let's say like this, and somebody insults you, it can happen that somebody insulted me and then I just started exploding.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So being perfectly honest, I usually do not very much rely on what the people tell me, what they think, what problem they have. It's just that I look and I can see already what I think. And foremost, one of these, and it's very simple, non-religious, nothing about believing. It simply is the fact you don't use your body as it is intended to be. Very simple.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yeah, but the fact is, before something explodes, before I explode, first of all, something must be lit. Already the small little flame already must have been lit. So when I already knew, who is it that I'm going to meet? Maybe that already, knowing, hearing the name from him, already was, ah, was already the starting point of a potential explosion
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
explosion to happen yeah so then ah this was where when this little flame already started being there and then you literally can feel things like this you can feel when something is has been injected let's say into you when something starts to arise because when the fire is already too big when the whole house is burning you're not gonna you're not gonna um put down that fire in any way
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You can only put down all of these fires before things come to big, meaning we must find a way to be directly grabbing the root, grabbing the core, or grabbing the source of the explosion. And the only way that I know is you need to become more sensitive for everything that goes on in your body, in your surrounding, in everything. This is where, for me, awareness does play a role.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And especially when it comes to becoming aware of your emotional states, this is absolutely inner work. This has nothing to do with doing work out here. It's inner work.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You give trust in the vision that when you are investing your time right now to become more aware of yourself, of your emotional state, that this is going to benefit your life. That's the starting point. You believe in it. You believe in it. So you don't do it because somebody tells you you're supposed to do it. You do it because you genuinely believe this is the way.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I want to know more about myself. I want to really understand what is it that I am made out of. I want to figure out, is there something Inside of myself, I tried to look away for many years, but I know it's still there and was afraid to look at it. All of these things. There's only one way to make yourself free. You need to become transparent.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
If there are spots inside of ourselves where there's no light yet, it can't be. It can't be. Bringing light to everything that has been in the dark. This is another area of the path, which at some point everybody will face. And even though that this is now just like a saying, but just the idea that
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Whatever you're doing, whatever you're thinking, whether people are around you or you're alone, just imagine there is one who always sees what you're doing. So live your life based on that.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Also.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's the elevated version of you, but it's true. It's you and you.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because I came, let's say, from this martial art field, yes? Also meaning the Taoist teaching or the principles of yin and yang have always been a part in there. Let me put it like this. Whatever you are thinking, saying, or doing has a consequence. So this consequence that you have created or that you are intending to create, ask yourself, what is that consequence actually?

You sit, many people sit too much during the day. The body is not active at all. A lot of work, a lot of energy investment is done with the mind. Less energy investment is done really with the body. And that simply means, for me, I can see there's a disbalance. Whoever created us, he did not create us to sit with our butt on one place and do thinking work the whole time.

Does it make yourself, does it make your being, your interaction with people, does it make it feel more light, more pleasurable, more enjoying, more free, more nourishing? Or is the result that you are about to create
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
going in the other direction, meaning you are nourishing conflict, you are nourishing aggression, feeling like you are carrying the suffering of the world on your shoulder, feeling like there's a burden on you, feeling like there's a stone on your heart, feeling like you're being put under pressure.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
See, all of these expressions have something to do with density, have something to do with pressure. But then when we look at, no matter which tradition it is, Buddhism, enlightenment, freedom, liberation, elevation, no matter what it is. You see, it is just two forces in the world. Two forces in the world.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
One aiming for limitlessness and the other one aiming for restricting and very clear boundaries. These are the two forces. And this is exactly now turning the view upon yourself. What are you made out of? Your patterns, the emotional states that follow you within a week. Within a week, looking back the last week, what was the most dominating emotion you felt inside yourself?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Was it one that had the character of limiting yourself in a way? Or were you in an emotional state like through the week? This was light, it was cool, liberated, free, uplifting, joyful, which of these? And this simply gives you exactly from what to what. Do I think you need to transform yourself if you want this? If you want this? So, and why do I think that this is the goal?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Lightness. Let's just imagine after this conversation, your best friend or your best girlfriend going to ask you, so how was this conversation? And even so that we are maybe just talking three hours, four hours, even if you spend two days long explaining to your best friend how this conversation was, it's not the truth. It is not the truth. How is this conversation? How is this conversation?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Even right now, we cannot even speak about it. I tell you how this conversation right now really is. Yes. How you want to describe this? You only, you will be the only one ever knowing how this is. It doesn't matter who's going to ask you afterwards, what you're going to tell them. You want to feel it? You need to experience it. There is no other way. And this is the nature of words.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is why these ancient stories come. For example, one master and his student walk up on a mountain early in the morning. Then the sun rises up and then the student says, oh master, what a beautiful sunrise. And then like the master like slaps him and never takes him to a walk anymore. Then you say, why was the teacher so hard to him?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because in the moment where you give something that you experience, a word, you limit its nature. You naturally limit its nature. So how does this now translate into what we can do with this knowledge? Whatever is being dense and it's limiting, I don't think it's the way. I think everything for us to practice is look beyond limitations. Look beyond the words. Look beyond the shape.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I do think a part of why we have been created is to get out on the field and just do something out there.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Practice to look beyond the superficiality of things. because this is where the meaning lies, or this is where part of the realization lies.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So our goal is set in a way. And now comes the next realization. Just because your goal is set, doesn't mean this life is going to give you exactly what you're looking for. Meaning, you really must make sure how important is that goal really for you. Because, you know, I... I witnessed it in my life as well. So at some point, when it started to become a lot public, the calendar went full.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And at some point I said to myself, okay, now it's becoming too full. Let's start to settle down a bit. Let's start to stay a little bit more in the background. But then still like requests coming in still. And then you were thinking, how come this one still... But ultimately, it's really up to you. How much do you really want it?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Unbalanced energies that can translate into anxiety, that can translate into dissatisfaction, that can translate into continuously searching and never being satisfied. And the most common thing, not realizing how precious the moments are that you have. And instead of replacing them with illusions and dreams and assumptions, which are just not real. Meaning everybody is not even Buddhist.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And it's going to continue like this until you will ultimately come to the point, and it's going to come quickly, I do think, you know, Where you realize for yourself that it's an infinite, that it's an infinite direction of possibilities. They will never run out, but you will still have to figure out what is it that you really want from your life.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Valid, absolutely understandable as well. But I do think that this universe is going to let you realize your lesson in the way how you need it. You're going to have your mansion, you're going to have your beautiful, beautiful wife, you're going to have it all. There is something that's going to put you back on track.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There is something that's going to put you back on track, telling you, you need to readjust. It's why, why, why, why? Because it has always been like this. We come with nothing. We go with nothing. What does it mean? This universe is going to make sure that you're going to go with nothing.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
which means at some point before it's time for you to go, you will be faced with the fact of learning the necessity of letting go of what you have attained in this lifetime. And if you have not learned and have not understood that this is going to come, then I think it's a very, very hard awakening. It's a very painful awakening.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
to realize, to have this realization that you have spent 70 years, 80 years following your goal. And now there is no other choice. You have to let go. Yeah. It's not my invention. It's just my observation. And this is why, now maybe let's jump a little bit, there are literally in the ancient traditions, in the text of Chan Buddhism, Zen Buddhism, it's very simply said like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
How do you know that you have practiced this path, this tradition in a decent manner? It is simply by... Feeling inside yourself how easy, how willing are you actually to let go of what you have.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
If you feel that you are mentally attached to things still, mentally attached to possession, you're far away from the state of being, what this Chan Buddhism, what this Chan teaching is wanting to reveal to you. What it also means is if you have the possibility of attaining everything that you were speaking about, you are absolutely happy to do so. You can own everything.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's never about promoting to have this is not good. No. But to have attachment, at least in this type of tradition, will have consequence. So it's not about what is it that you possess. It's about what of these possessions are possessing you. That's it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Let's start with the sports car. Okay. It depends on the rest of the circumstances. So let me put it like this. If the salary that you have, for example, is just as much that you can pay your rent, nevertheless, you want to have that sports car, therefore take a loan, then buy the sports car. It's very probable you're going to be very attached to the car.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
simply because out of the situation you bought it from. You didn't buy it from a position of abundance. So this is already not a good starting point, to afford something that you actually cannot afford. Differently it is when you have the possibilities,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And you just spend the time and spend also the money on the sports car and see it what it is and realistically see it how much time you, let's say, spend with it. I do think the excitement in the beginning is there for a week. Maybe a month, that's already long, but it's fading. And at some point, there will even be a day you don't even see it because you're busy.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's not Shaolin. It is common understanding. We don't know if we wake up tomorrow. It is like this. But our plans go. We have five years plans, ten years plans. We have short-term, mid-term plans. The truth is we don't know if we wake up tomorrow. So, of course, I don't want to make it sound negative, so just live in the present moment without planning. This is not what I'm saying.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Then there will be a week when you see the car once standing around somewhere. And then there will be a month passing by where you are traveling the world and you're not even sure anymore when was it the last time that you were riding it. And these are things like when you observe them and actually realize, yeah, it's the truth. This is how the development of things with possessions is.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
In the beginning, it's always like you want to have, you want to have, and then they fade. And diving into this type of mentality of really understanding Wanting, wanting is the one part, and then realizing how is life really. Do you need it? Is it necessary? Can you afford it? It's the second part. It just opens another perspective. And then you just decide for yourself.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But so whether something is possessing you or you can possess something without being attached to it very much is linked to all of this. From which position did you buy it from? Did you attain it from? And then the second thing is, how much time do you literally really spend with it?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I make it super simple when it comes to the five hindrances. Literally, it's like this. Whatever appears in our life, if I have my goal set right now, what you are not supposed to do is to witness something And now if you have like the number one, sensual desire, sensory desire, what we tend to do is we like start to pull things towards us. That's number one.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The second thing, what not to do, this is what it all belongs to that family of non-judgment, is like when ill will, something appears in your life, something you witness, you meet a person you don't want to meet, you get the message, you don't want to read that message, whatever it is, and you try to avoid it by doing actions in order to push it away from you.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So what it ultimately means is don't do any of them because... Whatever you try to hold on to, the nature of thing is that this is happening. Swinging away. It's going to move away from you. And whatever you try to avoid and push away from you is just a question of time until it's going to move like pretty close towards you.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's going to come towards you, okay? So that means... also in the way of how it's expressed, don't touch the water. If you don't want to have a life that is too shaky, don't touch the water. Because in the moment you touch, your touch is the initiation for the ripples to appear. Same way, you want to follow that goal. You want to have it easy along that goal.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Don't touch any additional water along your goal. Don't touch it because you like something and don't touch it because you dislike something. Because when you walk towards a goal and you do here and here and here, you're just going to ripple your whole surroundings, which ultimately means your energy is being just drawn away from your initial goal. That's how I would say it is.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And ill will is one of these expressions of you don't like something and then you invest the energy there. You like something and it draws your energy back to there. And ill will is similar in this category, belonging to this idea of don't push, don't pull.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But this is the challenge nowadays. How do you balance out vision with reality? Real, the only thing real right now is this. That's real for us. I can feel it, you can hear it, you can sense it. This is real.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So there was a time I cared a lot, a lot, a lot, a lot, very much. But within the last five, six years, I really had my hard lessons, being perfectly honest. Number one thing I need to learn is also to really not take things too deep into consideration, especially from people that I've never met in my life, number one.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That is the first area I needed to learn, which means everything that's on social media, everything that is publicly available, this is one thing. Why? Because what they judge or if they judge or what they comment, they can only comment on the character that is actually being available to them. Which is ultimately what?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Which is, for example, also, let's say, that person, Shi Heng Yi, named Shi Heng Yi, on that cover. Always like having a good uniform, in a way, representing something. Yes. but I'm simply not limited to only this type of representation. And this is something really, really important in general now to bring out there to the world. It is not good.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It is not helpful if this idea of putting people on... how you call it, on a higher pedestal or a post, it's not a good idea. The idea of raising somebody up to be our guru, raising somebody up to be our master, raising somebody up, oh yes, he is the special one. All of these things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There is sensory desires, ill will, dullness, restlessness, and then self-doubt.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
are doing exactly the opposite of what I'm trying to bring into the world, of what I do believe is the key, especially in these times right now, worldwide. It is to become aware of the real and the fake.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is the current situation that we're in, that the threshold, that the line between whether something is real or whether something is artificial or not real, it's becoming so incredibly slim, that line. This is why at the moment our world seems so fractioned.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There are the ones which are completely about let's go into the nature and then there's the other fraction which is all about going into the technology, into everything that's available nowadays where ultimately meaning at some point you will be able to just spend your whole life in your living room because everything you want to see and want to partially experience, you just call it into your living room.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's going to be possible at some point in time. So how do we get to the point? Yeah. Exactly because of this. It's not good if people raise you up and make you unhuman. And this is what is being attacked. So this is number one that takes a little bit the pressure off from me to take it too seriously. Because I just know they are seeing something, but it's a fraction of what I am.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is number one. Second realization at the same time was, It's also not helpful or wasn't helpful, or let's say was also a lesson for me. Even the close people, even the very close people in my surrounding that stayed with me for eight, nine years, sometimes even such close people don't know who you are. It can also happen.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It hurts double as much as people saying something about you that don't know you. Now you have people that you thought know you, and still they didn't get you. also very painful. So ultimately leading only to one thing, it only leads to one thing. You would have right now the impression of, so what's the only way? Just go your way regardless of what people think?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
In a way, yes, but have understanding for them and no ill will against them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That is ultimately the only thing that me as a result for the current state of being that I took as my consequence. Yes. So be careful, be very aware who are you letting into your circle and ultimately rely on yourself and maintain your Sorry to say, but it's the heart. Maintain the purity of your intention.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yes.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
One is too easy.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Oh.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
If I touch you like this and only do here, see, it's like I don't have a good feeling for you. I don't have a good feeling for your body because it's superficial right now. What I do is when I touch you, it's not this type of touching you. When I touch you, I literally try to sense your body structure. I feel like inside you, where is the tension? Where is the relaxation inside the body?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So it's like we call it, I'm reading your body. I'm reading your body. How is it? Where is the energy locked? Where is it dense? Where is it loose? The same I do with the stone. When I touch the stone, I literally feel inside, like, sounds funny, but I feel inside the structure of the stone. I feel the density of the stone in my fingers. And then I just see, okay, now it's...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So I know how the energy is going to come down. I know how the energy is going to come down. And then I just like see how does it fit together. So on the one side, I feel the structure of the stone. On the other side, I know what type of energy is going to come in. Those two I combine and then I just do it. That's it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So do you need to have this ability to live a proper life? I don't think so. But somebody who is able to break the stone like this definitely possesses some type of skill set, raises the probability that you can do something with that mindset in your daily life, which means already the only way to do this is you know what consistency means. You know what patience means.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You also know what like endurance means or like training means. And all of these character attributes that make it possible to break the stone just also builds the foundation, I would say, to integrate this now into other areas of life. So it's not about the breaking of the stone, but at the same time, it's also an expression of, look, the human, your body is capable of doing a lot of things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this is just one of them. There are so many extraordinary abilities that people can do nowadays, but all of them have one thing in common. You have a vision, and you find a proper way how to nourish that vision, that the vision becomes real. Similar like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That's exactly the thing. Similar like when nowadays you look at any type of competition sports. The event itself, the competition is being recorded, that one minute performance, or that nine rings, or that three minutes. But everything that makes it possible for them to perform in that one minute on that show, Nobody sees what is lying in front of there. Similar like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's with less than one second, the stone is broken. Yeah. But took like a few years to be able to do that one second.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You're looking at my hand. Because it's important, because it's literally not only about, it's not just about the focus of the mind. It literally is also about building the density, now physically speaking, the density of the bone structure. So I can just give you, if you like, a little example. What we do is this part. And this part of the arm, we just smash it like this. Oh my God.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is like a... So like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You just try like one. Just go, go, go.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yours is like steel. Yeah, and this is what it is, yeah. So it is changing you. If you want, you can like touch, you can feel it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So absolutely, there is the field of becoming conscious. Consciousness is a big field. Then we have science. This is another very, very big field. So some say, okay, is it that consciousness creates matter, or is it the other way around? Which one is the fundamental basis? What is the basis of our interaction?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But still, to answer the question, I do think three months, but dedicated training, yeah. And what would that training look like? So right now, as I explained before, this is why I also like in the book, I mentioned one of the grandmasters that I also learned a lot of the methods from. This is now, let's say, it's a stone. Stone belonging to the family of earth.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Now in Asian tradition, we have like the five elements or the five transition phases, right? wood earth metal fire water like these five elements so the proper training starts with the so-called wood training okay so we are using a lot of wooden material to actually condition our body So you're not going to break stones, you break like first of all wooden things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
After wood is no problem for you, then we go to the next layer, which is going to be stone. This was this one, for example, after stone comes metal. And so like this, we go through all the layers until your body has increased in its abilities. You know the frequency of wood, you know the frequency of stone, you know the frequency and vibration of metal.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is how we increase our ability to just be able to actually maintain our strength in the field of all five elements. You can break metal?

Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Prior to somebody entering now, let's say, into the temple and wants to learn from there, first of all, we also as teachers want to find out What does the character of that personality already possesses? And these are, for example, what we are looking for are ultimately the virtues to be expected. Virtues to be expected are, for example, self-control. A certain amount of self-control.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
A certain amount of discipline.

Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You don't let your emotions run over you. Even if something makes you angry, but in this context, it's not honorable. It's not respectful to now shout out. You shouldn't do it. You should be able to maintain your emotional states, maintain your temper, let's say, also at least to a certain extent. This is where I would say it comes to self-control.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So the truth is, the fact right now is, regardless of science, no science, how our evolution developed, right now we are here. Your body, my body, we are here. This is what we are having right now. At the same time, in the way of how this lifestyle at the moment is, we won't have more than 50 more years to go in that body. So very simple, without believing, without any religious aspect.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So discipline meaning you have, like I said, even if it's called the virtues to be expected. Expected means they should be visible somehow, but not to the fullest extent to what people are capable of. Discipline just meaning this understanding that if you come to the temple life,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
you know it's going to be difficult to wake up every day at the same time and then start to go through the daily structure. So it needs some type of commitment, let's say. It needs some type of, I know it's hard, but I'm willing to do it, this type of discipline. This is also in a way expected. And then another one is simply to be benevolent as well.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Kind of. The virtues sometimes swim into each other, but this idea of why do we have these virtues in the first place? And again, it's like in Star Wars. The force, what you're learning, the cultivation of energy, the skills that you are learning, these are very, very powerful things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But what makes the difference between somebody possessing this power and using it for the sake of humanity or somebody using it for the not betterment of humanity? It's the character. The power is the same. It's the character. It's the carrier of the power. It's the one who is in control. who is responsible to hold this power, to maintain this power, that one must be trained as well.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this is where the virtues hit in. The virtues are building the framework of the character, of the avatar, ultimately, that is then receiving all different types of training, skill training, that at least in the Shaolin tradition, we would say, it's good to know them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So ultimately, like I said before, in the Shaolin traditional texts is broken down into 14 different virtues, four of them to be expected, another five virtues of action, another five virtues of the mind. Just simply when you will later on fly through it again, the virtues of action. What does it mean, virtues of action? It is how should you Behave. How should you behave? Behave in a loyal way.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Behave in a trustful way. Behave in a respectful way. Behave in a courageous way. So this is the how should you do something. And the virtues of mind, for example, they say, What is it that nourishes the way for you to put the virtues of action into practice? How can you be, how can you learn to behave respectfully?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because naturally, if people like insulting you, you don't behave respectfully towards them. So how can you still behave respectfully, still be loyal to people? How do you do it? Well, then this is where it then comes to the virtues of the mind. To really learn, to be patient, to really know what does it mean to be persistent, to persevere during your training.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this is ultimately how I would describe it to easily understand.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I would call it the religion of oneness. The religion of oneness. The religion of, I do believe that we are connected at some way. And it is my journey. I don't want to just intellectualize it. I do think the path is to lay out and remove all the friction and all the obstacles to just realize that it is like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This is maybe also like a very essential point along the complete line, whether somebody reads the book or whether somebody watches all these type of YouTube channels. I myself always grew up in the need to attain something, to add something up on top of my life. This tradition, the whole tradition I'm talking about, is actually quite the opposite.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Once again, the truth is the lifetime of what you carry right now and what I carry right now, it's limited. And now just imagine you would be, let's say, the director of your own movie. Jump out of the body and watch yourself. Right now, you are sitting like with Sheheng Yi. We sit on the same table, and you are writing your story. How do you want to write the story?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That's why in the latest videos or publications, for example, I often mention that actually there is nothing I can give to anyone. It's not that you miss something in your life. Remember, you're not in a lack.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But in the moment where it feels like we are meeting and I give you something, when you even think that I'm giving you something and you are about to receive something, that's not the right state of mind already. I have nothing to give you. The only thing that I really try to do is take stuff away from you. takes things away from you that are covering that you see that you are complete.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Everything that builds up identity. Everything that builds up a stronger and stronger identity. Everything that you keep from the past in your mind. The more that you keep the past in the mind, the stronger your identity is. I do think this is one correlation that also goes hand in hand.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The more you keep past elements inside your mind, the less likely you will be able to break free into the future and open up for the possibilities that this lifetime might still have for you.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's a difficult question. I'm not searching for happiness. I'm searching for peace. So my state of what I'm aiming for, I would say it is peace. Because happiness for me, yeah, taken by this word, if there's happiness, there is sadness. If something can rise, something must fall. If you can attain something, there's something to lose. That's why it's difficult. That's why I stopped the moment.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I don't know what type of happiness you mean. Being satisfied with where I'm standing, yes. Does it mean that I don't have hard moments? I have hard moments. And that's why for me, like, what is it I ultimately look for? I would call it, it's just peace. Are you at peace? More and more, yes. More and more.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I would call it karmic relations, karmic connections that you just think like, you cannot avoid them. You cannot avoid them anymore. What is karmic connections? Karmic connection meaning? Because your mother gave birth to you. Automatically, whatever your mother is doing or not doing, however the state of health of your mother is, it's going to affect you in a way.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So there are sometimes people in this world, you have a closer karmic relation towards them. So what they are doing is also going to affect you. And in my case, it's the same.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
so meaning so literally real life speaking so my son yes he is a very strong karmic relation he's on the one side my own flesh and blood together with my beloved but it also means the way how my son feels it is affecting me and this is something that i still need to regulate learn to regulate Which also sometimes means, I mean, if you only sleep like two hours per night, then it is like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But you have good training to still maintain your peace afterwards. But these are simple things, yes.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You want to afterwards, after this podcast, you want to like feel uncomfortable, feel unsafe, feel unloved, feel like being just unsatisfied with the whole life, cry or anything like this. Or how do you imagine what is a really nice way of living for you the next 50 years? So, and based on that, purpose can be different. You say, I do like to travel.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Number one is, or one of the first things, is really try as often as you can to remind yourself and put yourself in that proper state of what you think you are. I wake up and try to not already have any type of thought from yesterday in my mind. I try to wake up empty. Let's call it like this. And meaning also... Try to, at all moments, immerse myself as much as I can in the present moment.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That's what it is. Live in the here and now. How you do this? To live in the here and now. Stop jumping into the past and stop jumping into the future. Then you live in the here and now. But you must practice it. And literally meaning, how you do it, make yourself empty. Because the only thing that fills your mind with past and future is your thoughts. The mind.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I wake up and sit on the sofa and still like just sit. So just being awake and just breathe, literally, just realizing slowly scanning my own body from the inside, going through the body. So really making sure in a way that everything that's going to come up during this day is being perceived very consciously as So it's like I slowly build up my energies, prepare, this is how I would call it.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It doesn't look very special looking from the outside, unless I wake up and the sun is asking for something, then of course I have my duties to do. But if I can really have my day after waking up, still the next hour is still I spend alone. This is what I prefer to do.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yes. What do you do? Push-ups, sit-ups and standing practice. What's standing practice? Partially it's also, some of them are like mentioned in the book, but literally it is what it sounds like. I choose one position that I'm standing in and then I hold that position for 15 minutes. Why? So let's take all the spiritual part out of this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because there are some positions that are looking so strange that at some point I also ask myself, how would somebody even invest his lifetime standing and putting yourself through such a position? Well, there must be a reason why in ancient times it is kept as a as a secret practice to stay like this. And since I discovered it, I do have to say that it's not this one at some point.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The squatting monkey is called. This is a practice that builds up what we call energy. How do you build up energy? It is by giving your mind something where you need to have willpower to maintain it. willpower and development of energy go hand in hand with each other. The will to live, the will to keep going, the will, the will. Strong will, iron will, energy is also very high.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And so literally, some of these positions are so demanding on the body that in order to maintain this position, You have to have will. You need to create something about yourself where you are pushing yourself. And this is, when we have time, I show you the exercise.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
When I mention it and then you directly look up in a way to me or any professionals who then do this type of training, of course it's beyond any normal person's abilities. But it's not about you need to learn and do the hard stuff like this. But one thing is for sure. This lifetime, living a life as a human, definitely is not easy. Let's put it like this. Living this lifetime is not easy.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I do like to invest this lifetime in this body to have the feeling at least that I can contribute something to all the fellow brothers and sisters that are around there. It makes me like I wake up. I like to do it. It gives me purpose. So it is something very, very personal.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The more wishes you have, the more difficult it becomes. The more ambitious you are, the more you will have to face. So bottom line is, I do think that in the moment where you just on a regular basis put yourself consciously and willingly in different situations and circumstances that actually represent a little bit the structures of life.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There are moments in this lifetime where you are going to be super tense. Super tense. And then it's good to know already how does it feel and what is it that you can do. Well, to learn and release the tension. That's why releasing tension is also a big part of the exercises. The one thing is learning to release tension. The other thing is like when you are too sloppy, when you are too slacky,
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
how to increase your tension, how to increase the energy level again for you to get back into structure again. So it's always this balance. And ultimately, how does it help people to know the hard stuff? Well, because I do think that it is symbolizing this way of life. It is symbolizing the patterns of what you are going to go through in this lifetime.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
In this training that I went through, for the moment, maybe take all the spiritual part out. Simply the Kung Fu training, the Shaolin Kung Fu training. There is a saying which is Shaolin Kung Fu literally means walking through the valley of pain. So, What does it mean? When you are doing stretching, stretching, stretching, stretching, it's going to be painful.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
When you are doing strength training, it's going to be painful. When you do conditioning training, it's going to be painful. So the whole path on this martial art journey, it is just filled with working yourself up to the level of where it feels uncomfortable, getting some consistency into the practice until the point where that uncomfortable feeling just started disappearing. Why?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because somehow you broke that initial comfort zone. But then it doesn't end. Now, next level. Until you're building up, first of all, whatever we're doing, later on I will show you some practices, it's not that I do not feel pain. I also feel pain. Maybe I feel it later.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But the essential part is that my connection, my relation between the pain of the body towards what would it affect in the way of how I take my decisions, that is a different one. I feel the pain. but at the moment I feel the pain, but I see no necessity to still change something about my way right now. Why? Because I can take the pain.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Which also means that in a way, speaking in these terms right now, I do not believe that every human being has the same purpose when it comes to this type of purpose. But now there's another type of purpose, which is more or less personally for me, why do I think... that in the first place we have been put with all these possibilities.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Whereas when you are not used to this pain, you feel it and then it tells you, Let's say it's painful, the mind says, okay, it's not good. And so you directly change something. And this is just the difference. So it's not that I became numb. No, I just feel there is an additional layer that I can observe about myself. It is painful. but it's okay for right now.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I spent my lifetime thinking for some part, to really wanting to build up my body and build up the skills related to the field of martial arts. So I want to build this up. Other people want to build up their business. I do think there is something similar in the way of building up. When I build up my body, how do I really build up? How do I make my body grow? It only works if I find a...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
continuous way of exposing my body to situations outside of the comfort zone of what i know elsewise it wouldn't be called growth if i every day just do something towards the body that the body already knows how to do there's nothing growing so the idea of understanding where is the comfort zone of my body
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Then on a regular basis, very little, must not be a big jump, but very little, extending this comfort zone until the body naturally takes it as a habit in raising the bar of where your comfort zone actually is. Always a little bit, always a little bit, always a little bit. But this only is possible, I think, by what's called going over your limits. But now comes the thing.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
You can go over the limits by really exaggerating and risking to be injured, or you make the idea of going over the limit consciously, aware, carefully, still going over the limit, but in a still controlled way, let's say. You know it's the limit now. But at the same time, at some point, you also realize our bodies, our mind is so intelligent.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Before when we are stretching, at some point you feel like everything is going to rip apart. But I know, and this is why if we would stretch, even though you say, ah, it hurts, I know we can still go more. You think, but I just know. Because your body is so intelligent that before something serious really happens, he tells you way before that, that be careful.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this figuring out where is really this limit, this is what makes the difference. There is a limit, yes, but this limit still has a... It's like a range of where we can still move inside. And I do think that this as a general line applies to everything if you want to grow. And step by step, by doing so, the comfort zone extends. So how is something new supposed to enter into your life?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Well, there's only one way. Exactly the way that many people are also afraid of right now. Go into the unknown. But that's exactly what it is. If this table is our comfort zone and you just stay on here, you will never know how beautiful London streets are if you just stay here. You need to go into the unknown. You need to slowly walk your, find your way out here.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But that means that going into the uncertainty is nothing bad. For me, I'm really, really happy uncertainty is existing in this world because I cannot imagine how boring it would be if I would already know with certainty where I'm going to be in 20 years.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And positively said, I do think it is a blessing being able to just experience. It's a blessing that we have been granted the possibility of simply experiencing
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Some people say, just start reading. I do think that people who do like reading, this is something. Meaning always look for something new to learn. Always realize that the things... able to still be discovered is way bigger than what you think you know. And that means exactly the way of how you also described it now. Exactly. The last 20 times you stayed quiet, the next time you raise your hand.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Whatever it is, just don't stay in the old patterns. Break the cycle. This is where I would say a great potential lies in.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So am I fearless? No. Do I fear a lot of things? No. I do think there's only one thing that ultimately makes you break free from fear. Which is To find a way and wake up from that dream. You don't take things too seriously in this lifetime. To just change, let's put it like this, change the perspective. Rationalize things if you like. It's similar, fear and worry, yes?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
At least when I look at my worries I had in the last month, well, for sure, 80%, 90% of all the worries just didn't happen in the first place. 10% might somehow came true, but then again I ask myself, good, so the 10% that came true, even though I had the worries, what could I do about it? Coming to the conclusion... Nothing.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
experiencing what this existence is capable of creating including everything including the joy including the happiness including the tears including the heartbreaks all of this without the separation whether you prefer one area or not the one sometimes the one goes with the other But the purpose in a way is just be and experience.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And then something just really started to shift inside of me where I literally let go of something. Let go of this idea that everything is like It's like one directional, that everything that you're going to encounter in this lifetime is going to be beautiful. Everything in this lifetime is going to be peaceful.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Everybody you're going to meet along your journey is going to be well-hearted towards you. No, it's not. Because in the moment where you have well-hearted people, you have ill-willed people. And in the moment where there is success, where you want to be part of the success story, you're going to be part of the failing story.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And in the moment where you want to be part of the light story, you're going to be part of the dark story. This is how it is. This is the world of what we call, it's the world of yin and yang. This is the world of birth and death, of aging and sickness.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And this is why in the ancient traditions more and more, even nowadays, why in the first place there is this whole idea about liberating yourself, breaking free and all of these things.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yes, I do think it's called RAIN method that has also been taught to me because it's easy to remember. What is it that you're supposed to do? Like I said, in this context of putting it simple, you have set yourself a goal. There are five mental states that could make it difficult for you to reach that goal. Those five mental states are these five hindrances, yes?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Could you read those out for me again? So sensory desire, sensual desire, here, ill will, dullness, sloth, torpor or restlessness, and then ultimately indecisiveness or self-doubt. Now, what does the RAIN method tell you? Number one, it tells you with the R, recognize. Recognize or realize.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So along your journey every day, just sitting somewhere, contemplating, learn to realize in which mental state are you actually finding yourself right now. This is just a recognition, the realization of where you are. The A stands for acknowledge or acceptance.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
The only thing that happens and which is a big part nowadays is if you take your current existence too serious. If you completely base your identity, your being on what you think you are. But like I said, it's just a picture right now, yes? But just sometimes make it very simple. Jump out of yourself and be the director. Be the director of this avatar. And then it just opens another perspective.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So even, you know, the second one was called ill will or actually it's called aversion to denying something, pushing something away from you. Very important right now. Same here. You recognize something inside of you, about you. Of course, second one, accepting it, acknowledging it is important. Yes. I, meaning now investigation. Investigation meaning, okay, I see I'm dull. I see I'm restless.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Okay, I accept that I have this feeling right now. Now, investigation meaning, okay, What is it like? How did I get into this state? Have I been there this morning already in that state of being? No, this morning I really felt good. So what happened now since the morning until now that put me in this state of restlessness? To who did I talk to? Was it a message that I received?

Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
What is it ultimately that led to this feeling of restlessness? So really investigating. like a detector investigating so and ultimately then the N difficult one but it is standing for non-identification so and non-identification meaning I mentioned it before even if you just use it as a picture right now as a concept if you want but
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Try not to identify your being too much with your body and too much with the mind. And if you don't identify with the body and not identify yourself too much with the mind, also you do not identify yourself too much with all the things that you investigated that you felt like were nourishing your restlessness.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Concepts are concepts, theories are theories. Be careful, be aware of what you are keeping or what are you nourishing in the mind. Never restrict yourself to any concept, never restrict yourself to any identity, never restrict yourself to any type of role whatsoever. What you create, you create, and you can create quite a lot of things. Yeah. Something along these lines, probably.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yeah, see, just imagine like when I talked before about enduring things, going through my childhood, And always receiving, let's say, to never be enough. But still, I mean... Still, I had this internal fire going to still always give my best, but for the sake of my parents. And so, from the age of four, elementary school, give your best. High school, give your best. Studying, give your best.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Study again, okay? I do again. So all the time, not because I necessarily wanted all of this, it's because for the sake of my parents. for the sake of they are the ones who allowed me in the first place to in a way be alive, also thanks to them. So this was in a way my expression of what they say as long as they are alive, I listen to them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And then walking all the way up to this academic education, then finally graduating like after 20 years, And then I just returned from the graduation back to Kaiserslautern, the city where I lived, and that was the last year I spent with my father.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So literally meaning spending so many years in this academic education for my father, and now he's not even there to witness that it has been done for him. Now, this was like a point where I thought like, Yeah, this was the one area that stuck somehow a little bit hard. And then the next things, I call it maybe small, but it's not so small apparently.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because I grew up in, let's say, this Asian tradition with, let's say, different type of beliefs or rituals or ceremonies that we do. One of these things was that when my father was still lying in hospital, when it was clear that it's just going to take a few days until he would pass away.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
He, for example, also said, well, he only said it to me because, you know, I would be the only one who is able to do it. Don't cry for me. Because he couldn't say to my mother, she cannot handle it. Couldn't say to my brother. Yeah, but because I trust in the, I trust in the.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because in that moment, you just realize it's like a movie. Not everything is always positive. But in the moment where there are times of struggle, still not being caught inside your own creation. Identity. Identity, illusion of the self, different expressions for that. It's a very helpful way of thinking. Let's put it like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
in the tradition, the reason why not to cry when my father passed away is because we do think the body is there, the body passes away, the spirit sets itself free. And when the spirit simply realizes that all the sons are there, the families, they're crying, the spirit in a way is still bound to this realm, bound to the earth's realm, let's say.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And in order to be able to help my father actually to get on a move on quicker to move on quicker that was the reason why it is sometimes so important to don't show any grief in the moment when a beloved one like passes away yeah but all of these things yeah
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
spending so many years for my father then he's not there to realize it then not being able to cry and then being in all this very very hard field and always like over achieving and No problem working 16 hours a day. Well, these are all the things that made it possible to be where I am right now.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But at the same time, I just do feel like, especially in the moment now when my son started to come and all of these things, I just felt like there's a lot blocked there. Well, there's a lot that still needs to be released for the sake of my son. And, yeah. What is it you needed and when did you need it? I would call it recognition. Being recognized by my father at some point.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
To finally somehow say, you did well, it's enough. But it didn't come until today. So I still keep going. I never heard it from my father. From a mother, I also don't hear it. Well, maybe in a different way, but I do think it is the father's recognition that you probably aim for. These are absolutely things that do shape my character for sure.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There is. And again, this leads to the fact of sometimes it's very, very helpful to really shut the world, shut the world out of you and spend time with yourself. And actually create what you think you were missing there. Create it because you're the one who creates it. That's exactly what I do think.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
That when we were speaking about it right now, of course we could say that, what is it that I was looking for from my father? Fact is, I'm not going to hear it from him anymore. So I need to hear it, of course, by myself. And this is where it comes to all these type of practices and methods that many specialists nowadays also like emphasizing, regardless of how you call them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Well, something like, you did well, you did enough. I see what you are doing, but now take your energy back and give it to your son. Give him everything that you feel you didn't receive from me.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I do think there will be change. And I do think there is already change. This is maybe the part where specialists nowadays would say, it's not necessarily an area of the conscious mind. I do think that these are talks right now, more dealing with subconsciously, is stored inside our, let's say, in our mind. I think this is where it plays a role, especially when it's about patterns that come up.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's not consciously. When you're conscious enough, you can regulate already a lot. It's the subconscious things that you are not aware of that are still a part of your life. And if you wouldn't have asked about my father... I wouldn't even think about him for one month. It's all not a problem.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But I do still think that these are very, very deep layers that just translate a lot unconsciously into the way of doing things, in the way of how I see things also. And this is where I feel like it probably would help.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Yes. I do think at some extent when the 49 days, that's the period of where it's normally said don't grieve at that time, 49 days. Afterwards, I did, yes. But probably there's still a lot more to release.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So growing up, like I said, in this field of martial arts, I met a lot of masters. I met a lot of grandmasters. I always went looking for other instructors, looking for somebody outside of myself to be a mentor, to be a guide for me. But at some point, always realizing that everybody, no matter who it was, They possessed some type of skill that I wanted to learn from them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
So this is literally... Also, one point that you just mentioned is that it isn't there more. That has always been a part that followed me along the way. Especially now in the last three, four years after social media, the algorithm of social media really started also pushing us quite out there.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But there was one thing that in a way, none of them in a way could help me with. And that was how do I run my own life? I can learn skills from you. I can learn skills from here. I can improve in this area, in this area.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
But putting all these skills, putting all this knowledge, putting all the advice, putting it into a structure, into a frame, and then to run my own life with it, there's only one person who can do this. Yourself. And this is where I meant that Don't rely on a master for him to run your life. Don't rely on a mentor, a guide, whatever, to run your life.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
This whole journey is about you learn and acquire the skills and acquire the knowledge and acquire whatever you think is necessary to bring out the best version, let's call it like this, the best version, the best refined version potential about yourself, about what you believe you are capable of bringing out about yourself. Meaning the master is already sitting inside of each individual.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's just that we don't nourish that master inside of us enough.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
the more you feel like that your well-being about yourself is being dependent on any third parties, anything outsourced. So if the government you feel like, if any decision from the government affects you, read the book. If like your colleagues at work affect you by what they say and what they think, that's also something.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Every time when you have the feeling your well-being is dependent on something that you feel you have no influence in. Because this is exactly, this is the antidote. This book is literally telling you
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Don't outsource your well-being to anything that you cannot influence or control, which literally means place the emphasis and the foundation of your well-being only on things that you have influence on. And which one is that? Your body and your mind.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It's sometimes really nice to see the full picture. The full picture of me is I didn't start like being on the cover of the book. I didn't start like having all the abilities and skills that I have nowadays. I didn't start with all the social media channels as they are right now.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I started actually in the poorest area of the city in Kaiserslautern that until today is known to be like the area where people do not like to go. This is where I come out from. So was my life always easy? Well, I don't think so. But there are just a few fundamental things that...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Meanwhile, after like 40 years, meeting people, talking with people, looking into the world, being able to actually see some type of structures in the world, I do believe that what you might call successful people or people that somehow made it in whatever way you think is made it, I do think they have something in common. There is something in common amongst them.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
More requests were coming of doing workshops, of doing podcasts, of teaching here, of teaching there, of making television show, of participating in movies. And of course, all together with this, doors start to open, different things start to come in. But at some point, I just couldn't believe that this is supposed to be the purpose. Because it all still had to do with doing. The constant doing.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And one thing that I would definitely say is to really be able to endure is one area. Really having that persistence, even though, okay, today is not working, everything goes wrong, but not like cutting it off suddenly. This type of persistence and consistency, just knowing and trusting that Okay, let's do it again. So literally trial and error. Hard times, good times.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
To just understand that this life is like this.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
There is an up and down. The one, the success doesn't come without the failure. The brightness right now that is being seen from people. Yeah, but there's another side that... that built the foundation for people nowadays to shine. And just to understand a lot of things is possible, but it's never one directional. Yeah.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And now to put things really literally into practice, one of the easiest things, how do I know what should be the next, what should I do tomorrow? What should I do tomorrow?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Look at yourself and ask yourself, what is the most disturbing, whatever it is, from the last week in your life? What is disturbing you about your life the most from the last week? You can even extend it to, what is it, which emotional state is it that followed you primarily in the last one month?
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And then maybe investigating again, okay, what is it that brings up that emotion, that state inside of you? Is it somebody who triggers it? Is it something that triggers it? So really boil it down to the point that you actually see This is what blocks me right now in my life. This is literally what blocks me in my life. I want to move into the future, but this year it follows me. It blocks me.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
It takes my energy. It's this one. I can literally see it. That is the one. Now invest all of the energy to figure out the solution for this one. Because if you took care of this already the last half year, the chances are very, very high you're going to have it the next half year, which means you're going to have it already for one year. And if you do nothing about it, it's going to be two years.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And it's going to be three years. And in three years, you still sit there and complain that you were not able to move on. Yes, because it's the same pattern and it is the same hindrance. Still in the life. And this is, for example, how I know what is my next area of development. The one that, let's say, shakes me the most at the moment.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
If I think about, literally I think about, is it something in the business area that shakes me? No. Is it something in the family area that shakes me? No. Is it something in the relationship area that shakes me? And like this you find out, okay, that is the next one. Let's tackle it. And so, and we will always find something that in a way like we would say we could optimize.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
And I do believe that in the moment where you say, no. No. I have arrived. I think then there's really nothing to be done than just to be free.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I would say that 40 years long, whatever I said and whatever decision I took in the last 40 years, I could always stand behind it. I pushed decisions through and I gave comments to do it the way that I wanted because behind it, my mind was always supporting all of this. Just in the recent months, I had to take a decision.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
I would have wished to have a little bit more time to make the transition more pleasant, but I couldn't. I had no choice. And so despite of not feeling that it is the right way to do it, I still had to do it. And this is what I regret.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Doing. And there I felt in my life now looking at this, this couldn't be it. So I looked for alternatives always and always again, especially feeling that along the way of what you would say achieving something, being recognized at something, yeah, but there's another side that goes hand in hand with it that the public doesn't see. There were times I could simply be surrounded with like...
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Appreciate it having this conversation.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Thousands, thousands of people, but still feel lonely. It's not what you're surrounded with. It's with what you are connected. And there I felt like there is always, again, this type of force. What is it that drives you on? Going outwards, going outwards, going outwards, you lose yourself. But this self is the only thing that can give you connection in this life.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Maybe before I answer you this question, there's one thing I maybe want to mention beforehand. So when I went to elementary school and also during my school time, I actually, for example, joined Christian lesson. So by my parents, I grew up with Buddhist tradition, let's say. From the martial art training, I also got introduced into so-called Zen Buddhism.
The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
Shaolin Warrior Monk: The Hidden Epidemic Nobody Is Talking About! This Modern Habit Is Quietly Killing Millions! Prediction For The Collapse Of The West!
Because my father always told me, look son, we are here in a foreign country, you're a foreigner. It's always better to have friends than to have enemies. That's why I made always friends with everyone. Meaning I had a lot of Russian friends, I had a lot of Arabic friends, I had a lot of Turkish friends. Multicultural. Also meaning... At some point, I also got introduced into Islam.
