Not Funny https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug17_Post.mp4 I took an improv class once. I had not idea what it was, it was recommended to me. I thought it was going to be about comedy. But it was about improv in the context of any kind of stage acting. Plays are based on memorized lines. […]
The Stradivarius Seduction Pattern
Learning Rhythm https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug16_Post.mp4 One time, way back in college, I took a jazz appreciation class. I knew nothing about music, at all, at the time. But I was a fan of blues-based rock. Rolling stones, Jimi Hendrix, Clapton, Led Zeppelin, etc. And much to my surprise, I learned a lot of […]
Change Your Time Space
Lucky People https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug11_Post.mp4 There are plenty different reasons for success. Most of which, are not under our control. This is something that’s hard to accept.

The Master Strategy of Time
Nothing Makes Sense https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug10_Post.mp4 Some things seem to be paradoxes on the surface. But paradoxes are really not an outward sign that something is “wrong.” Any paradox is a sign that we don’t have the total picture of what’s going on inside. For example, there’s a common idea that all self help […]
Thrive On Clown Show Planet
Rulers and Workers https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug09_Post.mp4 One of my favorite lines is from an old Clint Eastwood movie. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly. A couple of guys chasing after some gold hidden somewhere. The good guy was Clint Eastwood. He and the ugly guy were more or less working together. […]
Become A Linguistic Experimenter
Magic Words https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug07_Post.mp4 The power of conversational hypnosis is profound. Far beyond how most people think. Invented by a doctor to help people.

The Deserving Paradox
Lazy Monkey People https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug06_Post.mp4 Humans are basically lazy. That’s a good thing. All animals have evolved a max ROI instinct.

Dude, WHAT?!
Come Again? https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug02_Post.mp4 Once I was talking to a friend of mine. This guy was Japanese, but pretty fluent in English. Still, there were some issues with pronunciation. He lived in Japan, but had spent time in the UK as an exchange student. We were talking about various types of fast […]
Think Beyond Reality
Embrace Limits https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/Aug01_Post.mp4 Working within constraints is something we tend to avoid. But at the same time, constraints can help create fantastic results. For example, if you are making a raunchy R rated comedy, you can do a lot of gags. Sex gags, f-bomb gags, etc. But if you were making […]
Secret Weapon Brain
Most Powerful Skill https://loopvids.s3.amazonaws.com/July31_Post.mp4 A very useful practice is image streaming. Originally it was presented in a book by Win Wenger as a means to increase IQ.
