What is the main focus of the Scott Adams School episode?
Are we live?
Yes, we're live.
Good morning, everyone. Good morning. Hey, Marcella. Good morning to you in sunny California.
Good morning, Erica and Sergio. How are you?
And Owen, the voice. Good morning to everyone.
Good morning, you guys.
It's very cold where I am.
Is it? What is it?
I think it's something like four degrees.
Oh, four is chilly. Yeah, I agree.
What is your zip code, Owen? What is your social security number?
Just the last four. You guys, come on in. Welcome in. We're just stalling for a second so we can get ready for the simultaneous zip together, but we want it to be simultaneous. So we heard your feedback that you needed an extra second. So that's what we were doing. But come on in. Good morning. And I think, I think we're probably ready. Don't you guys? Okay. So we'll talk after the sip, but I think you'll enjoy today's sip with Scott because it ties in so well with our reframe yesterday from Kev, who did an amazing job, Kev. So you guys, Let's see what Scott's going to tell us today and how it tied into yesterday and join us.
Can everybody hear me on your various platforms here today? I don't see anybody complaining about the sound yet. I think I upgraded the sound. It should be better today. All right. How would you like to take your experience up to levels which have never been seen before? Well, all you need is a cup or a mug or a glass of tanker gels, a sign, a canteen jug, a flask, a vessel of any kind. Fill it with your favorite liquid. I like coffee. And join me now for the unparalleled pleasure of the dopamine of the day. The thing that makes everything better is called the simultaneous sip. It happens now. Now, before we get into all the ugliness, because, of course, we're going to talk about Israel, a few topics before that, but I wanted to share with you something I shared in the man cave last night with my subscribers on Locals.
And it's the difference between wanting something and deciding. And you'll see this distinction in a lot of places, and it's really important to have. When you want something, you can see the the pluses and the minuses of going after it but you're seeing the minuses pretty strongly and you say to yourself ah you know i tried to do something but it was hard so i gave up but when you decide to do something it doesn't matter how hard it will be because you've already decided and i noted there was a example that as i'm playing with my technology here i wanted to be able to live stream on multiple platforms using third-party software. But the first several times I tried it, I probably tried it, I don't know, five to ten times.
And always I read some problem or complication, and I said, it's too much. Too much work, too many problems, not going to do it. So that's when I wanted to do it. I kept running into a problem and quitting. for years actually every now and then i just keep trying but after uh youtube did the last set of sketchy things now i don't know what's real and what they're doing or what i just imagine they're doing but whatever it was it was sort of the uh it was too far level and then i decided and it's amazing how easy things are when you decide because the problems don't look like problems anymore They look like something you're going to solve. So as soon as I decided that no matter what it took, no matter how hard it was, no matter how embarrassing or frustrated it became, I was going to make it work on multiple platforms, which it is right now.
And it's just astonishing how easy it became. As soon as I realized that there was no alternative, I had already decided. And then I just knock up the problems for know light up the problems and just knock them down so today i probably solved the sound problem i turned up my light a little bit i've got another camera ordered i've got a new laptop ordered so i'll have a better resolution camera so there's nothing that will stop me at this point and so my advice to you is that when you find this situation and you're having trouble with it ask yourself this is this something you want or is this something you decided
