Introduction and Cultural Confusion
00:00:00
Speaker
I grew up confused about my culture and identity and felt out of place most of the time until I found comedy, which forced me to be honest with myself and I realized mostly I'm just an expat brat.
00:00:13
Speaker
Welcome to my show.
00:00:14
Speaker
I'm Salman Qureshi.
00:00:16
Speaker
Hey, welcome back guys.
The Fridge Saga
00:00:18
Speaker
If you haven't caught up on the last episode of mine, then you might not know that we ended that last episode on a very, very delicate like cliffhanger.
00:00:29
Speaker
You see what happened was I had ordered this fridge for my wife and because our old one, you know, it just conked out kind of.
00:00:39
Speaker
Well, it didn't conk out.
00:00:40
Speaker
Here's another thing before.
00:00:41
Speaker
There's a lot of stuff going around.
00:00:42
Speaker
I got to catch it all.
00:00:44
Speaker
our fridge conked out.
00:00:46
Speaker
It was starting to freeze up and stuff.
00:00:47
Speaker
And I thought, let's buy a new one to replace this because I was sick of losing food or you know what I mean.
00:00:55
Speaker
And what else does the fridge do?
00:00:57
Speaker
Anyway, I digress.
00:01:00
Speaker
The fridge, then we go, we decide I'm going to buy a new fridge.
00:01:05
Speaker
And my wife brings up this lifelong dream of hers of having a fridge that does crushed ice.
00:01:11
Speaker
Not just ice cubes, not a water dispenser,
00:01:14
Speaker
crushed ice all right so then i go all right cool let me find something that does that and you know what this is this is for people who don't know it turns out getting one with crushed ice is very hard it's it's very few um there are very few options out there there are very few models that do it they'll do cubed ice they'll do water water you can do
00:01:37
Speaker
There are loads of fridge that have water dispensers in them, but crushed ice, my friend, they were few and far between.
00:01:45
Speaker
And then the other problem was the way our kitchen is set up, the fridge area is limited.
00:01:50
Speaker
It's a slot that kind of has...
00:01:55
Speaker
two walls on the side so it's not it's not like i can go beyond this particular size of it and that was another problem then because the few amongst the few options of crushed ice fridge that i had there were a few that fit into the space that i have so you see this this is like a mad problem that has to be solved by some ninth grader or something
00:02:18
Speaker
All right.
00:02:19
Speaker
And just so you know, I was never good at math.
00:02:21
Speaker
So this this problem already became very complicated.
00:02:25
Speaker
I never expanded beyond sixth grade math or something.
00:02:28
Speaker
Maybe I'm being generous by even saying that much.
00:02:32
Speaker
All right.
00:02:32
Speaker
So here's the here's the situation.
00:02:34
Speaker
Here's what happened.
00:02:35
Speaker
Right.
00:02:35
Speaker
So then I find one model.
00:02:37
Speaker
And it's on this website.
00:02:39
Speaker
It also has like a deal going on.
00:02:42
Speaker
So I order it.
00:02:43
Speaker
And it's supposed to be delivered on a day.
00:02:45
Speaker
It doesn't show up.
00:02:45
Speaker
I hear nothing from those guys.
00:02:47
Speaker
Then I follow up the next day.
00:02:48
Speaker
They're like, we'll get back to you.
00:02:49
Speaker
It's going to happen.
00:02:50
Speaker
Don't hear back.
00:02:51
Speaker
Then the third day, they're like, it's going to be delivered today.
00:02:53
Speaker
Between...
00:02:55
Speaker
In the daytime, like between 12 and 4, I hear nothing from the delivery guys and I'm panicking.
00:03:00
Speaker
I'm like, I should have gone through Amazon.
00:03:03
Speaker
I should have paid the extra 10% or whatever and have it delivered on time and peace of mind.
00:03:08
Speaker
But now, it's also this model that I've not heard of.
00:03:11
Speaker
It's a company called Gorenj.
00:03:14
Speaker
And like I said, there were very few options with crushed ice.
00:03:18
Speaker
And Gorenj, I don't even know if I'm pronouncing right, it's Gorenjay.
00:03:22
Speaker
It's some European model.
00:03:25
Speaker
But I looked up online and it's got like good reviews and stuff.
00:03:30
Speaker
But it's not common out here in the UAE, so I don't know the brand.
00:03:33
Speaker
Or maybe it was a website that just told me it's great and I believed it.
00:03:36
Speaker
God, I got to stop like believing everything on the internet, right?
00:03:40
Speaker
Anywho...
00:03:41
Speaker
There's all this going on and I don't hear from the delivery guys.
00:03:44
Speaker
And I wanted to surprise my wife.
00:03:45
Speaker
This whole time, she doesn't know that I've ordered a crushed ice fridge.
00:03:50
Speaker
She thinks I've just ordered a normal one.
00:03:52
Speaker
And I'll tell you, I was mug inside, but I was also like just dying to tell her because, uh...
00:03:58
Speaker
I cannot keep a secret.
00:04:01
Speaker
And I just, I need to blurt out things.
00:04:03
Speaker
I'm very impulsive.
00:04:05
Speaker
I had to like maybe down like 10 times my daily dose of Concerta.
00:04:09
Speaker
That's the ADHD pill that I take to stop myself from, no, I didn't actually take 10.
00:04:14
Speaker
Please don't do that.
00:04:16
Speaker
But that's how I felt.
00:04:17
Speaker
Like I had to like constantly stop myself from blurting out, hey, I got a crushed ice fridge.
00:04:22
Speaker
And I
00:04:23
Speaker
Just waited and waited.
00:04:24
Speaker
And finally, and then she left to go out.
00:04:27
Speaker
And I was like, damn, now she's not going to see it till she comes back.
00:04:30
Speaker
And then she was about to come back and the fridge hadn't been delivered.
00:04:33
Speaker
I wanted it all set up before she came back.
00:04:36
Speaker
So surprise, right?
00:04:38
Speaker
Instead, they delivered like...
00:04:40
Speaker
just shortly before she's back home.
00:04:43
Speaker
So I couldn't set it up, but she did walk in and see it and she was really happy.
00:04:48
Speaker
I've never seen her more happier.
00:04:50
Speaker
Not even, I think, on our wedding day, which is a little worrying, but we've been just having a great time with crushed ice.
00:04:58
Speaker
I have to say, I've converted to it too.
00:05:00
Speaker
I just pour crushed ice all the time now.
00:05:04
Speaker
to drink anything, you know, it's, I think I made hot coffee and put some crushed ice the other day, I don't know, it's just, it's awesome, not just cubed, not just water, crushed ice, my friends, I can say, I totally crushed it, even my sister-in-law, she,
00:05:19
Speaker
I went over the other day after the fridge thing and she just turned to me and she said, Salman, I can't think of something more romantic you could have done for my sister and well done on that.
00:05:30
Speaker
And I have to say, I was just like, wow, this is awesome.
00:05:34
Speaker
This is really great.
00:05:36
Speaker
I didn't know my wife was that easy.
00:05:40
Speaker
I'm just glad she's really happy about it.
00:05:42
Speaker
But just so you know, I gave our old fridge to someone, my nanny's friend.
00:05:49
Speaker
I gave it away.
00:05:50
Speaker
I was just like, it's not working.
00:05:51
Speaker
I don't know if you guys want to get it fixed or whatever.
00:05:54
Speaker
And they just thawed it out.
00:05:55
Speaker
And now it's working fine.
00:05:57
Speaker
And I'm like, I didn't really have to spend this money.
00:06:02
Speaker
I could have just got it fixed.
00:06:04
Speaker
But
00:06:06
Speaker
That's the saga, my friends.
00:06:07
Speaker
So for those of you who were waiting this whole time for me to tell you, yes, she loved it.
00:06:13
Speaker
Yes, she was surprised.
00:06:15
Speaker
Yes, I got it on time.
00:06:16
Speaker
It was set up properly.
00:06:17
Speaker
It's been working great.
00:06:19
Speaker
And I myself am a convert to crushed ice.
00:06:24
Speaker
So there you go.
00:06:24
Speaker
I think every house needs one.
00:06:26
Speaker
Every house.
00:06:26
Speaker
You just never know.
00:06:28
Speaker
You don't know till you know how much crushed ice you need all the time.
00:06:31
Speaker
All right.
00:06:31
Speaker
And you just, there are times that just walking by, even my kiddo just like looks at it and he just presses, watches the crushed ice come out.
00:06:39
Speaker
I just really need to teach him to use a glass to catch the crushed ice, but he just enjoy.
00:06:44
Speaker
I think he thinks it's like snowfall or something.
00:06:46
Speaker
And that's the closest he'll get to it.
00:06:48
Speaker
If we continue living in the city.
00:06:50
Speaker
Um,
00:06:51
Speaker
Yeah, he's been a ski to buy, but that's not Snowfall.
00:06:54
Speaker
Anyway, my point is he got to see Crushed Ice.
00:06:56
Speaker
He loves playing with it too.
00:06:58
Speaker
And the fridge is nice too.
00:07:00
Speaker
I'm not paid to review this or anything, but it's actually quite a solid fridge, man.
00:07:06
Speaker
Lots of space and well set up.
00:07:09
Speaker
Oh, it's also got like this
Family Life Updates
00:07:10
Speaker
app.
00:07:11
Speaker
So now I can change the temperature on the freezer side.
00:07:15
Speaker
It's one of those...
00:07:17
Speaker
two-door things.
00:07:18
Speaker
So the freezer is like on the left and the normal fridge side is on the right.
00:07:22
Speaker
All of it, right?
00:07:23
Speaker
Like top to bottom.
00:07:25
Speaker
And so the freezer side is quite big too.
00:07:27
Speaker
And it just, I got an app where anytime I want to change the temperature on it, it's connected to my Wi-Fi.
00:07:33
Speaker
I just, I can just change it there.
00:07:36
Speaker
I don't know how often in one's life you need to do that.
00:07:39
Speaker
But it's there as an option and I love it.
00:07:42
Speaker
I could just, you know, I could just go, I need to free something up right now.
00:07:47
Speaker
Drop the temp.
00:07:49
Speaker
Use that app, you know, and it's there.
00:07:51
Speaker
And it's it's why is it there?
00:07:55
Speaker
I don't know.
00:07:56
Speaker
I think, well, I paid good money for it.
00:07:58
Speaker
So I like the fact that it's there.
00:08:00
Speaker
It also has like a little alarm if it's left, if the door's open for like, left open for like more than two or three minutes.
00:08:06
Speaker
Then it goes, does like a beep, which, you know, when you have a young kid, that kind of helps too.
00:08:11
Speaker
And, oh, it doesn't need a key.
00:08:13
Speaker
It's got like a passcode you can put on to lock the fridge.
00:08:17
Speaker
This is so high tech.
00:08:19
Speaker
I think...
00:08:20
Speaker
I'm enjoying the fridge more than when I got my iPhone last time or something.
00:08:25
Speaker
I mean, it's a bit of a stretch, but it's up there, you know?
00:08:28
Speaker
It's up there.
00:08:30
Speaker
So I'm quite proud, as you can tell, about this fridge.
00:08:32
Speaker
Anyway, you know, there are more exciting things, I'm sure, going around in your life, too.
00:08:37
Speaker
But this fridge, wow, I got a good life.
00:08:41
Speaker
There's actually something more important happening in my life.
00:08:44
Speaker
My kid, Zayan, he's got delayed in speech.
00:08:50
Speaker
And at one point, I wasn't sure if he's going to be nonverbal or whatnot.
00:08:54
Speaker
But now he started, you know, he's been doing speech therapy in school and stuff.
00:08:57
Speaker
And I think just being around other kids, he's starting to talk.
00:09:01
Speaker
It's so awesome.
00:09:03
Speaker
It seems someone like discover it.
00:09:05
Speaker
I think you kind of miss it because I've seen my sister's kids and other kids like develop speech.
00:09:10
Speaker
And it's always cute.
00:09:11
Speaker
But it's, you know, it's at that normal time.
00:09:15
Speaker
and you expect it and it just grows a certain way.
00:09:18
Speaker
It's actually kind of cute to see my kid doing it because he's almost six so he's starting to speak now more and he's putting together two, three word sentences.
00:09:28
Speaker
He's using language correctly before it seemed like just memorized words and stuff.
00:09:33
Speaker
But what I find cute is the fact that he's kind of discovered his voice
00:09:39
Speaker
You know, he just he doesn't speak the words.
00:09:41
Speaker
He screams them out like excitedly.
00:09:43
Speaker
So everything is like excitement.
00:09:46
Speaker
Like he just goes, Daddy, it's not Daddy.
00:09:50
Speaker
It's Daddy.
00:09:52
Speaker
He wants to go out.
00:09:53
Speaker
He's like, let's go.
00:09:54
Speaker
Let's go.
00:09:55
Speaker
It's almost like he's listening to his voice going, this is really cool.
00:09:59
Speaker
It's exciting, man.
00:10:00
Speaker
And I just love seeing him go through this bit.
00:10:06
Speaker
It really is very, very cool to watch.
00:10:08
Speaker
And I'm just grateful that he's doing this.
00:10:13
Speaker
But he also has a mocking tone, which makes it even funnier because every so often, if I'm trying to call him, I'll be like, Zion, Zion, or I'm trying to stop him, you know, and it's like a stricter tone I try with him, and I'm like, Zion, and he just goes, Zion.
00:10:29
Speaker
zayan zayan zayan and i can tell it's a mocking tone and i both am pleased with his ability to do that now but also like shut up kid i'd smack you if you weren't like autistic and a little bit more delicate or whatever i think he that's a that's another hard bit i've mentioned before
00:10:51
Speaker
with um when your kid's um a little different or whatever and you just neurodivergent and uh you just kind of you just kind of have to be careful about like how do you not that i'm in i would ever smack a kid but it's just that question comes into my mind it's even worse if i do it with him but why is it worse you're mocking me right now too you know um anyway fridge
00:11:15
Speaker
My kids talking.
00:11:17
Speaker
Some great, exciting stuff.
00:11:19
Speaker
It just got me to a good place right now.
00:11:24
Speaker
Work's been busy.
Improv Insights
00:11:25
Speaker
Summer's almost over.
00:11:27
Speaker
Life is looking up.
00:11:29
Speaker
Let me talk about something else.
00:11:30
Speaker
This has been bugging me a lot too.
00:11:33
Speaker
I've been...
00:11:35
Speaker
I do a lot of improv, and for those of you who don't do any improv theater or don't know what the hell I'm talking about, then why are you listening to this podcast?
00:11:44
Speaker
What are you doing here?
00:11:46
Speaker
But if you do or know anything about improv apart from Whose Line Is It Anyway, or even if you know that, it basically is like us jumping on stage, making up stuff on the spot, working with someone else to create stuff.
00:11:58
Speaker
Magic, comedy or stories or whatever the hell you're aiming to do in that moment.
00:12:04
Speaker
You know, mine's usually just create some fun, I guess.
00:12:07
Speaker
But the thing is, if you ever go, it's it's I do think improv is is this development thing every person should do.
00:12:17
Speaker
It's life changing.
00:12:19
Speaker
It really is.
00:12:19
Speaker
I'm not pitching people to towards improv.
00:12:22
Speaker
I really do think it's it builds some great people skills for you.
00:12:26
Speaker
So, you know, there's one thing, though, I've been battling with.
00:12:33
Speaker
It's this whole idea of, like, every improv troupe has this blind, almost cult-like thing of saying, yes, and...
00:12:42
Speaker
And the idea is great.
00:12:43
Speaker
It's something that appeals to me in theory a lot.
00:12:48
Speaker
What it basically means is that if someone has created an idea, you don't block it away, you don't destroy the idea, but rather you come to it and approach it with a, let me not just say yes to your idea, but also build it.
00:13:05
Speaker
So that's a yes and on top of that, I want to build something on top of it.
00:13:11
Speaker
And you'd be surprised how hard it is to teach this sometimes to people who will do anything but to collaborate with people.
00:13:21
Speaker
And so I like that it's a battle.
00:13:23
Speaker
I see why it might have come through because people naturally might want to take over sometimes different personalities.
00:13:31
Speaker
Some people will shy away from making any commitments.
00:13:35
Speaker
And this tool really kind of gets people thinking in that way.
00:13:38
Speaker
Now, it's a great thing, but it's, you know, in recent times when I look at it, I just feel like it is a bit of a cult thing.
00:13:45
Speaker
It comes from practitioners like Keith Johnston and Del Close and stuff.
00:13:50
Speaker
But my problem these days with it is this.
00:13:52
Speaker
All right, hear me out.
00:13:54
Speaker
When...
00:13:55
Speaker
I like the thought that when I'm working with someone else on stage, I try to be more yes and because it'll help us get to creating a story and not get into this rotation or cycle of rejecting each other's ideas and not really building anything then and not working well together because you just kind of start going, well, you blocked my idea.
00:14:21
Speaker
I don't really care about yours.
00:14:22
Speaker
It gets confrontational pretty fast, right?
00:14:25
Speaker
Now, that's great in theory again.
00:14:29
Speaker
And when I'm with someone, I can control what I do.
00:14:34
Speaker
And part of my problem with it is this whole thing of yes and sounds like...
00:14:40
Speaker
something everyone should do um but that's not how life works and you can't control other people's behaviors so people will say no and and this it's almost like this thing is when it goes to an extreme which it does right where people just take something and then take it to the other extreme
00:15:01
Speaker
it sounds like we're now getting scared of any no's at all.
00:15:07
Speaker
Like no is evil.
00:15:09
Speaker
No will destroy the essence of improv and humanity or something along those lines.
00:15:17
Speaker
And my whole thing with it is this.
00:15:19
Speaker
Sorry, I know I'm doing a lot of walking through this and stuff, but I'm trying to voice it so you're clear and I'm clear and I get my point across completely.
00:15:30
Speaker
So just yes and me, please.
00:15:33
Speaker
You're going to have people say no.
00:15:35
Speaker
This fear of people saying no is creating this extreme version where any kind of no is frowned upon in some instances.
00:15:45
Speaker
And new people...
00:15:46
Speaker
Learning improv often go to that extreme.
00:15:49
Speaker
They're like, oh, but you said no to this.
00:15:53
Speaker
And I don't think life is fair that way either.
00:15:56
Speaker
The fact that someone is inexperienced and they're up on stage and they might suggest something that is terrible or unsafe or...
00:16:09
Speaker
just not, you know, they're not in their whole senses because they're worried and new and stuff.
00:16:13
Speaker
And for me to guess, and that might actually be a worse off thing than taking it away to somewhere else.
00:16:22
Speaker
And I don't know.
00:16:24
Speaker
You know, any, you start sounding like you're justifying your own idea over.
00:16:30
Speaker
And that's why I'm always a little worried.
00:16:31
Speaker
But here's the other part of it, right?
00:16:33
Speaker
I think,
00:16:34
Speaker
I think when someone says no, you got to remember this.
00:16:38
Speaker
It means they feel unsafe.
00:16:41
Speaker
It's not just about the choice right in that moment, but it's about the fact that they are in their own selves probably, there's a strong chance probably,
00:16:54
Speaker
they're worried and unsafe, feeling unsafe and not trusting you completely, right?
00:16:59
Speaker
That's what it is.
00:17:00
Speaker
It's a, if I've tried taking someone along with me and they say no to me, to my idea on stage and in life, I guess, then it does mean I haven't made them feel safe about it because the no, and this, this came about because I try to teach yes and in corporates and, and workshops.
00:17:17
Speaker
And one of the exercises I do is just, I just get them to say no to each other.
00:17:20
Speaker
I get them to say yes, just to kind of see how it feels.
00:17:23
Speaker
And when I asked them, how did it feel to say no?
00:17:29
Speaker
What surprised me was the number of times people go, hey, it felt good.
00:17:36
Speaker
And I was like, you know, so I kind of probed these and it's recurring.
00:17:40
Speaker
So I was like, hey,
00:17:41
Speaker
Why?
00:17:42
Speaker
And I get the same answer every time.
00:17:43
Speaker
Well, usually I don't say no.
00:17:45
Speaker
And it felt nice to be able to say no.
00:17:49
Speaker
I felt in control.
00:17:50
Speaker
I felt safer.
00:17:53
Speaker
And those kind of things came out over and over again.
00:17:56
Speaker
And it made me think about it that, you know, no is not inherently evil.
00:18:01
Speaker
And so instead of putting all the onus on both players to suddenly say no,
00:18:09
Speaker
yes to everything and expect them to put aside all their fears of life and everything and jump off a plane together.
00:18:17
Speaker
It just sounds a little extreme and hard for new people to do, right?
00:18:23
Speaker
And I think the onus should be on, well, if someone's saying no to me, how...
00:18:29
Speaker
The angle should be how do I and part of it would be me saying yes to them.
00:18:33
Speaker
Yes.
00:18:33
Speaker
And to their idea instead or whatever they're offering, but also acknowledging that, you know, we've got something to build here.
00:18:40
Speaker
And that's hard.
00:18:41
Speaker
So I think warm ups before shows, warm up before meetings and stuff.
00:18:45
Speaker
We got to get to a safe place.
00:18:48
Speaker
I got to get these people to feel safe with me.
00:18:51
Speaker
And that changes how I want to approach improv and training and work and performing before we get on stage.
00:19:00
Speaker
And it's not a superficial thing where we do some fun warm-ups, which is, you know, it's great.
00:19:05
Speaker
And we get the energy up and stuff.
00:19:07
Speaker
But to me, it's also, there's a big part of it is like genuine connections and genuinely making them feel real safe with me.
00:19:16
Speaker
All right.
00:19:16
Speaker
And that...
00:19:18
Speaker
And that part is hard because even if you did that, when you get on stage with someone, even if they're experienced improvisers, there's so much going on.
00:19:27
Speaker
There's this personal, they might have some personal stuff going on, right?
00:19:30
Speaker
There's the audience, there's the show, there's the performance, there's the...
00:19:35
Speaker
the last scene that's just happened, the failure they've just had in the last scene possibly, or made to look like a fool in the last one, or they didn't enjoy it.
00:19:44
Speaker
You know, there is a bunch of... Or I might have done something in the last scene that even if they weren't part of it, they watched and went, ugh.
00:19:54
Speaker
And so, you know, there's a whole bunch of things apart from just me, which might make them say no or get defensive and try to feel safe in the next bit that we're doing.
00:20:07
Speaker
That is hard then, you know, to how do you get all this stuff and go, how do we get really actually deeply collaborative, deeply, you know, and that's, that's,
00:20:21
Speaker
That's not as easy as just telling someone, all right, let's both do yes and and be great on stage because I see it failing over and over again.
00:20:31
Speaker
So it's lip service that we're paying it.
00:20:34
Speaker
And at a deeper level, we don't understand it.
00:20:37
Speaker
And even when we do, we got to figure out that there's something beyond that as well.
00:20:42
Speaker
So.
00:20:44
Speaker
I'm putting this out there.
00:20:46
Speaker
I'm working on this and I'm trying to figure out what's the best way forward with this.
00:20:51
Speaker
And I may be ostracized by the improv community and the greater gods of improv or gatekeepers or whatever.
00:21:03
Speaker
But I've said it.
00:21:05
Speaker
I said it, my friend.
00:21:06
Speaker
It's something that I'd really love to develop.
00:21:09
Speaker
Anyway, if you have had no experience with improv, I'm going to come back to that as well.
00:21:14
Speaker
And all of this last bit, for some reason, you still listen through the whole thing and you still are here listening.
00:21:21
Speaker
I do want to tell you, you got to try some improv exercises.
00:21:25
Speaker
Do it at work.
00:21:27
Speaker
Do it with your kids.
00:21:28
Speaker
Look it up online and just try a few.
00:21:30
Speaker
You might do it not completely correctly, but you won't lose anything because they're fun games.
00:21:37
Speaker
You'll have a bit of a laugh with whoever you do it with.
00:21:40
Speaker
It's a little bit of a loosener.
00:21:43
Speaker
There's nothing.
00:21:44
Speaker
You could do it anywhere, anytime.
00:21:45
Speaker
A lot of the exercises.
00:21:47
Speaker
There are a bunch of things that you can do with one, two, three, four, five people, 10 people.
00:21:53
Speaker
So there's such a wide range
00:21:55
Speaker
variety of options to it that you don't need to necessarily go to an improv class to do it, to discover it.
00:22:04
Speaker
And I think you'll find if you do, if you're not someone who's involved in this field,
00:22:11
Speaker
you'll find it translates to everything.
00:22:13
Speaker
Because when you can open your mind up, when you can get into a more creative side to things, when you can be in a more collaborative mode, when you're just more spontaneous, you'll be surprised at what kind of results you get.
00:22:28
Speaker
And they translate into a whole bunch of different things at work.
00:22:34
Speaker
It doesn't matter what industry you're in.
00:22:36
Speaker
It doesn't matter what
00:22:37
Speaker
work type you're in, what department you're in, what your role is, I really truly believe it affects you.
00:22:45
Speaker
All right.
Conclusion and Engagement
00:22:47
Speaker
And not even just aside from work, in life and with family and friends, it does make a huge difference.
00:22:53
Speaker
And it's not manipulating people.
00:22:55
Speaker
It's not about like tricking people.
00:22:57
Speaker
It really is.
00:22:58
Speaker
If you do it right, you'll realize the changes happen to you and naturally.
00:23:03
Speaker
And that is just an awesome thing that this thing does.
00:23:06
Speaker
All right.
00:23:07
Speaker
So
00:23:09
Speaker
Give it a go.
00:23:12
Speaker
Leave me a comment if you have questions about this because I've been doing it for a while and I really do believe in the work it does for you.
00:23:20
Speaker
And tell me how you felt.
00:23:25
Speaker
And if you have no idea how to get started and you don't want to search online, again, drop me a message.
00:23:29
Speaker
More than happy to take people through on how to just go about it no matter where you are in the world.
00:23:35
Speaker
So, ladies and gentlemen, that was my fridge, my kid, and my yes and theory.
