Joe Rogan's Life Advice Will Change Your Life (MUST WATCH) | Joe Rogan Motivation

[Music] well I think the one thing that discipline definitely does help you with is it helps you get things done and when you get things done when you you have you actually do things you you you you have more success if you have more success sometimes a big part of success is just not being [ __ ] lazy and just doing it just get that's like 90% of it is just showing up get there and start working like you're not gonna feel perfect every day if I felt if I only worked out when I felt good I'd be a fat [ __ ] because there's a lot of days I don't want to do it if it's pretty much the same with everybody that if that actually gets good at something that you you get there's got to be those days you push through and they're they're probably gonna be more numerous than the days you don't and so the benefit of discipline in my eyes has always been that through discipline I get things done I always tell my always say that I'm like the most lazy disciplined person I know because I don't want to do it yeah but I always do one of the big problems is sitting down and doing the work and you gotta impress filled talks about that it in the most concise and beautiful way and he labels it like an enemy he calls it resistance you know and that you have to sit down you have to overcome resistance and that the pro goes to work and it doesn't matter if you're sick doesn't matter if you have kids it doesn't matter what you you're a pro and you go to work in that in debt just it puts it in your head that this is what I do this is what then you have pride in that and then when you are in front of that keyboard and you're you're you got you look down the count it says I gotta [ __ ] a thousand words today I put a thousand more than you yeah you you're doing the work and out of that work gems blossom their little things but you might have a day where you just write nothing but [ __ ] so what show up again tomorrow and tomorrow out of that dog shed a flower will emerge you never know and that's the only way to develop real like to really develop your potential a hundred percent in anything whether it's as an author or even as a martial artist there's a lot of creativity in martial arts to be a great striker you have to be creative because you have to you have to develop patterns or execute patterns that aren't gonna be perceived this idea that life is hard something you're supposed to shield from them it's so silly and you know I've had this conversation with my friends because everybody that I know that's interesting how to [ __ ] up life but but now we have kids and the last thing we want is our kids to have a [ __ ] up life so we put our kids in these good schools you live in these nice neighborhoods everybody eats healthy and there's no [ __ ] domestic violence and everybody seems it's it's so different than all of our lives and we were talking about it me and Bryan Callen were actually talking about like look we all had fucked-up childhoods and everybody we know had fucked-up childhoods and they're all interesting but I don't want my kids to be boring but I also want them to be safe so it's like how do you how do you approach that I mean I think you get involved that's what I've chosen to do is get my kids involved in martial arts and and and and give them the opportunity to pursue difficult things and understanding that through pursuing these difficult things like in accomplishing stuff like you you learn something about yourself you learn that you have this ability inside of you to overcome get obsessed with life improvement find things that you enjoy doing they're difficult do them and get better it seems so simplistic it seems like a ridiculous idealistic point of view but it's effective well you need some form some amount of pride and some amount of ego to get good at things in the first place because it's such a counterintuitive notion because you have to have a belief in yourself you have to be able like when you eat first it when you start out at jujitsu your wipeouts like I remember being a wipeout and being like oh my god I am [ __ ] never gonna get good at this I'm gonna suck forever but to look at people who are better than you and know they had to have sucked at one point in time okay there's got to be somewhere along the end of this tunnel there's got to be a light I just got to keep going yeah and then he goes yeah I was gonna say I mean ego drives you know you to be successful me to be successful eagle is what's driving you the problem is when you you go too far yeah and you know everything you know everything takes balance this is a dichotomy and everything every part of you has a dichotomy you know you can get so into the physical aspects of things that you end up like doing a bunch of steroids and going crazy and ruining your health like yes that's not good right the other end of the spectrum you know you can sit around and play video games and turn into a bodybuilding is a great example of that because when you start lifting weights like god I'd like to be stronger and you start getting a little bit bigger you like oh look at that I got a muscle whoo this is cool and then you keep going and then you keep going but some guys get so [ __ ] crazy they won't stop until they have 22 inch arms and they want to have thighs that are so big they have to walk like they're they've got a barrel in between their legs and you know and they just can't help but they just take it to some completely unhealthy place yeah that's uh that's rough yeah well it's it's just the nature of trying to get good at something you got to recognize what's good and what is just [ __ ] insane for some people especially they're just experiencing way too much pressure and that pressure a lot of times it's just an imbalance in perspective and some of its input like I was talking to this mom once her daughter does gymnastics with my daughter and we were talking about kids killing themselves where she used to live she used to live in one of the really wealthy tech areas outside of San Francisco and a bunch of kids that went to school with her daughter that were like 15 16 were jumping off bridges and chin like it was a like an epidemic and they were trying to figure out what the [ __ ] is going on and they're literally calling it affluenza that these affluent kids and their their families are literally worth a billion dollars you know I mean everybody's super rich and they're having this insane pressure in like before high school and in high school to be an Ivy League schools and to get 4.0 s and all in their [ __ ] they're not having any fun and they're not experienced in life and they don't have any hope and their parents are all on [ __ ] pills and they're just killing themselves for some people out there that aren't feeling good man if you've just [ __ ] struggled more you get over that struggle you feel better it sounds so simplistic but I swear by it yeah and I felt shitty myself and then forced myself to work out then after I get out of there I'm like whoa [ __ ] it wasn't guaranteed it's hard for people to break momentum to in momentum it's good momentum or meant to momentum this bad momentum when I get a like when I get on a good groove or working out all the time I feel it like after I'm done working I'm like Jack can't wait to get in there again I can't wait to work out again that's the good momentum but then there's that bad momentum like you get injured or something like that you can't do anything for a couple weeks and then to try to get that kick start that meant motor up then it's the whole it's hard to get momentum there's a lot of people that are eating [ __ ] food and then by the end of the day your body's in a crisis yeah the body's just processing all this [ __ ] and if you're eating a big like [ __ ] lunch filled with nonsense like your body's got to process all that stuff and so the end of the day yeah you're gonna lose your willpower so like when five o'clock six o'clock rolls around you're gonna be tired but if you have a healthy lunch and you know you're properly fueled and then you also have positive people in your life everyone's motivated by the end of the day you're gonna feel good whenever the [ __ ] you thing is just go and do it just force yourself to do it and if you feel like [ __ ] because you ate lunch then your lunch was you know filled with [ __ ] well then hey dummy don't eat shitty lunch tomorrow tomorrow try a nice salad yeah no try salad with some salmon and see how you feel then you okay I feel way better today at 6 o'clock duh yeah now your decision-making will be better like that people don't understand how significant it is like all these little decisions they those are like that that's the path for the rest of your existence on earth and if you decide to go to [ __ ] Cheetos chocolate chip cookie route you're you're just making a [ __ ] path you're carving your [ __ ] path through broken rocks and glass and there's not the way to go you know what else doesn't exist in a day to day life what a place where it's okay to be a man it's actually okay to mend it's okay to have man thoughts like you know everybody is so so toned down and neutered it's like the human resources and and corporate life has watered down people's natural behavior to the point where people are just dying on the inside sitting in these [ __ ] cubicles rotting they're just freaking the [ __ ] out having all these thoughts that can't entertain having to pretend to be someone there they're not all day long putting on this [ __ ] way of talking this fake way of thinking everybody's got to subscribe to whatever [ __ ] ridiculous policies their company wants to enforce and you're just a robot you get out of there and you just want to scream it's this fear of discomfort people have this extreme feeling in their mind when it comes to their associations with exercise they want to avoid discomfort they feel like any type of exercise is just like something to be avoided that's not for me [ __ ] that I don't want to sweat I don't want to strain and a lot of times this association that they have is about the beginnings of getting in shape it's not about once you're actually fit because once you're actually fit exercise is something you look forward to it's an alleviation of stress it's it feels great like if I can't get a workout in and I look at my schedule I go oh [ __ ] I don't any time for a workout which means I'm not gonna get that good feeling and so instead of looking at it like oh I've got to go grunt and sweat I'm thinking I'm not gonna feel good I'm not gonna feel relaxed I'm not gonna feel carefree and I'm not gonna feel even appreciative like my appreciation of things and it gets enhanced greatly after exercise I just feel better I feel like I can take things in for what they are rather than you know whatever that weather or sensory data that I'm getting from any event is just one more distraction that gets in my way and you know that that's a lot of times how I look at things if I'm overstressed or if I'm working too much like our bodies for whatever reason most people their associations are to avoid anything that's uncomfortable but it's so illogical because when you look at comfort and you look at success and progress and the eventual the fee wings of accomplishment and of getting past certain hurdles and in terms of like how you feel about life a lot of those are connected to discomfort like discomfort is your friend it really is like discomfort and and not being happy and content with certain situations in life or certain feelings in life there are massive massive motivators and they're they're amazing at at facilitating change and yet our instinct is to avoid those and just sit on the couch and watch some [ __ ] reality show about dudes and make moonshine with our jaw open like it's with bizarre and for me at least when I get when I get like really disciplined and really I get really consistent with my workouts one of the things that I feel I almost feel momentum I feel like there's like a push behind me like all right we're you know like after I get out of the gym I have a really good workout I'm like yeah now I'm doing it I'm doing it all the time now and I'm looking forward to the next time and it makes that resistance much weaker and it makes my motivation and my discipline much stronger I think a lot of it is based on just the consistency you know it's one of the things that I talked about recently on the podcast I said you know like blowing something off it's not just not good like blowing off of an exercise that you planned is not just bad for you physically it's also bad mentally because then that option is now available the option to [ __ ] off is available and you did it before and you're probably gonna do it again and you'll get mediocre results not just in that aspect of your life but maybe in all aspects of your life because I think that option to [ __ ] off when you embrace it that is a pathway that you might choose when it comes to dealing with conflict in your personal life dealing with business decisions dealing with career decisions like an uncomfortable decision that you might be faced with maybe you need to make a change as far as like what your pathway is in life but you don't do it instead you [ __ ] off and that the inclination to [ __ ] off I think that gathers momentum as well the inclination to be disciplined that comes with momentum too and I think both things like you did you take a path the path of the healthy person or the path of the [ __ ] off like this is not like your body is like a race car that you can juice up yourself like you can add the fat tires you can add the improve suspension you can beef up the horsepower in the engine you could do all that yourself or you could just choose to have this shitty body that's always falling apart on you because we're essentially ecosystems you know and we're we were in charge this weird consciousness that has all this resistance and has all this inclination towards comfort and [ __ ] off and blowing things off is what is in charge of making all these things happen that keep this ecosystem healthy it's almost like if Earth itself had like a shitty manager you know if like there was a manager of a natural manager of Earth that was like oh god who cares if it rains Oh God you know like let's let you know I'm gonna stop growing things I don't give a [ __ ] anymore it's all stupid anyway I mean it's literally like the the just below it yeah [ __ ] it let's just kill all the life what day it's all gonna die eventually I mean the Sun only lasts 7 billion years you see that is the perspective a lot of people take with aging where it's like well you're gonna die you're gonna age you can't stop aging and it's like yes you're right but that's not the point the point is to age better like that's the point the point is to increase your health span you know and that is we know is possible like that can there's some there's some of these like centenarians and super centenarians I've seen that are like in you know over a hundred years old and they're like riding bikes and racing and it's like yeah they're old they are very old they're experiencing a very good quality of life yeah and there's experiencing a quality of life that these other people that don't exercise feel they physically feel their own body diminishing and they just feel it's inevitable it's just what it is what it is you're wasting your time you're out there running around but not we're not because this experience right now it's not like no-one's under the illusion you're going to live forever but you are enhancing the experience that you're currently involved in right now and you are alive you are alive you do experience this life but do you experience this life optimally is it is it as enjoyable as it can be and we all know that there's a spectrum for that enjoy ability like we've all had times in our life where it's not been so great and then times in a life where everything came together like what a [ __ ] great day whoo like make more of those like you can make more of those and then the whole thing's better and I think when that whole thing is better it affects everybody you touch everybody it's around you everybody you come in contact with and that in turn me it sounds so grandiose but in an intern can affect the entire race of human beings [Music] I've always wondered if the depression that people see in mass today there's so much depression that people mean there's a car it's a common trait like it's a common condition oh he suffers from depression oh she suffers from depression like oh he's got herpes you know you don't I mean it's like it's a it's a common thing I've always wondered or I've been wondering more and more recently it really hit me when have you ever seen Hein Mo's Arctic adventure this guy lives in this incredibly remote area of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in the Alaskan interior and he he lives in this really small log cabin and he hunts and gathers and that's all he does and he's very smart like he's not a dummy at all and he's been up there he lives with his wife and his raised children up there and it's really really there's some dark moments in there because they lived like this from the time like when they had children up there and they lost their two-year-old baby in a [ __ ] canoe like they tipped over you know in a canoe and lost their kid and it's like it's really intense when they revisit the site and leave flowers and it was like 30 years ago and they had several children since then but this moment is still like this intense moment loss for them when they lost their baby but this [ __ ] guy is very happy and very very smart and very connected and very articulate and he firmly believes that human beings when we evolved and developed and were hunter-gatherers that there's a set of rewards there's a reward systems that are set up inside the human body inside the very being that we embody that don't get mad in today's society and it's one of the things that's causing depression one of the things that's causing this funk that people are in is that we're living our lives many of us at least in these very unfulfilled ways where you're going to this office with artificial light and you're doing something you don't want to do all day long and then you get home and you're tired and on top of that you're eating [ __ ] you're eating potato chips and you're drinking soda and your body is just like what in the [ __ ] is this we're supposed to be out in the fields we're supposed to be walking up hills we're supposed to be looking for animals or gathering vegetables we're supposed to be doing all these things that our body is designed to do we're supposed to be in nature yeah and nature is like a medicine like it literally is a medicine to you like people people that go you don't have to go hunting you don't have to go fishing just go [ __ ] hike man just go hike up to the top of a mountain and look out you know there's a reward that you get from that that is intensely like soul filling just like something about like when I was in Colorado and there was this this area of Boulder where you drive up one of these roads and there's this area where you could park and it was this incredible view man these people just Park and just go out there and just look but you get there in your Park and you go because you would see you literally seen the Continental Divide these snow-capped mountains and jolt high in July it's covered with snow because those mountains no perfective oh just this the whole new perspective on it and I think nature I think the ease of suffering is always in present miss you know when you're in present is truly locked in and presents there is no suffering there can be pain but no suffering suffering isn't is something created by our own minds and I think nature is one of the great ways to do this because humans we we learn we take cues from our environment and nature as I was saying earlier is always in the present you know there's this natural presence of all the animals everything around you but if you get around a bunch of people watching housewives and stressed about this and popping pills you're gonna take on that energy too and you're gonna lose your presence because of your surroundings so it's like this ultimate re grounding tool where we get back to AA present moment you know and that's such a [ __ ] key element to human happiness and I think the other key element is having something where we're fighting for you know having a mission I think we're all forces and that force needs to have an effect needs to have a reason that it's moving in a certain direction and I think with all of our Meads and all of our needs met you know where we don't have to hunt for food we don't have to acquire everything everything's relatively easy and it's all about advancement and all this we've lost a lot of the basic mission which was the mission to survive and procreate you know so and we haven't replaced it with any other universal mission which is I think one of the big allures of these things like Wars and these things like creating an enemy well at least then you have a mission and when you have a mission human beings are happy you know like Bertrand Russell talked about he did book conquest to happiness and he had his own fucked-up attributes every time I bring him up people talk about his [ __ ] up as he thought he was into phrenology and he might have been a racist whatever but he was a good philosopher smoke constantly yeah but but anyways he talked about the happiest person he knew the happiest person he could find was a groundskeeper on a manor who everyday woke up and was at war with the rabbits of the God he just declared that the rabbits were the [ __ ] enemy and he would go out with his gun and he would hunt as many as possible and he'd go morning till till tonight and he would kill as many rabbits could because it was hit the rabbits were the ones eating the hedges and the flowers and whatever so he basically made the rabbits his enemy and struck out every single day to kill as many rabbits as possible and that dude according to Bertrand Russell was happy as [ __ ] he had a task he had a task he had a purpose you know he had a mission my mission is destroy the rabbits I just have a dog like that yeah I the happiest dog ever his name was Frank Sinatra and he was a pit bull that all he lived for was killing lizards and my house my old house not the house of his now but my old house had this one it's like on a hill and there's this one wall where these lizards would run up the wall and so Frank I would literally let him out in the morning and he [ __ ] bolt out that doors like time to go to war like and he would run and go look for these lizards and he would stand there like Eddie Bravo would just watch it and marvel he'd be like [ __ ] man this dog does this every day this dog does this every day I go this is what he loves to do and he would go there and he would have his paws on the wall crazy he would jump up and try to grab a lizard and occasionally he would get one and he black [ __ ] yeah and he would get one they would go looking for another one he would go he was a pretty big yard so he would go wandering around the yard looking for anything else that [ __ ] up anything else that was slipping there was conflict unfortunately twice I had to take him to the hospital because he got bit by rattlesnakes cuz rattlesnakes are slipping too apparently he killed the rattlesnakes but the rattlesnakes [ __ ] him up okay like a water balloon growing out of the side of his head both of my dogs I in it by the way that's a real problem if you don't have the money to pay for the serum it's super expensive it was several thousand dollars to treat them for this rattlesnake venom anti-venom [ __ ] it's like I was like man what if I was poor what if [ __ ] that's a whole [ __ ] up system like they're you they inject horses with the venom mm-hmm and they like get the antibodies from the horses it's actually archaic system I think my friend Donald Shultz is working on he's a big snake handler guy he's working on ways to innovate around that because it's kind of like a real backwards system that they have how you get anti-venom well a horse will survive so let's just [ __ ] sorta put the venom in there and the antibodies from the horse then you know it's a weird it's a weird thing how they do it yeah well that's a real problem with people that are vegans if you're a vegan you don't use any animal products you get bit by a rattlesnake you got two choices compromise your morals well that's a wrap yeah you know but this dog was so goddamn happy mm-hmm he had missions you know he would go out of that the yard and he wasn't bored he was like please take me for a walk come on man he was like see a dude I don't know he was calm just his little mission and I think you can see that in the people who are the most unhappy they seem aimless yeah like what am I here for why am I doing this nothing makes sense you know and I've even felt it in my own life when you know I know what my mission here is first my mission is to expand human consciousness to help people be happy like that's really what I find my greatest purpose in but every once in a while I'll get this kind of like [ __ ] people out of to maybe someone who said some [ __ ] up [ __ ] and my man people [ __ ] some people and then at that poem that's when I'm actually confused you know cuz I've lost my mission instead of having a mission like yes my mission is human consciousness all the suddens like [ __ ] people [ __ ] that mission they'll figure it out and then I'm depressed cuz I've lost my purpose it's very hard to rise above like literally when something like that happens and realize like oh you've just you're encountering one diseased individual you got to look at the mass of humanity yeah like when you encounter one diseased individual it's it's so like this guy who shot up that nightclub in Orlando you're looking at one diseased individual and if you say man people [ __ ] suck look at what they did well look at how many people that are responding with rainbows on their Twitter pages and love and and and all the best wishes to those folks that got killed and all their I mean I was looking at this guy's page who's an animal lover who was organizing people to go to the homes of the victims and see if they have pets that are trapped you know there's this beautiful people out there yeah there's a lot there's more beautiful pieces this is without a doubt not just the safest the easiest this is a happiest time in terms of like being able to like reach out and and and send love to people and have people send love to you but just occasionally you run into constant yeah no no in the constant self but the beauty is out there too it's not as dramatic and it doesn't impose upon us as forcefully but we just look it's around all the time we run into good people all the time but you know you just make eye contact with that good person or that kid who's just looking at you and just creating with that little smile and you're like oh yeah the good of humanity the fact that you know we really are loved you know being expressed you know outwardly all the time and it's just these other delusions that get in the way of that well we're oddly attracted to negativity - it's almost like we look at negativity online or that you run into is like a possibility of war like you have to look out this [ __ ] drums beating goddamn it there's an army on the background they're coming they're coming but you know it's like this this real impulse to sort of batten down the hatches when really it's just some [ __ ] 36 year old loser sitting in his parents basement you know farting and smelling his own farts and angry online I mean that's really what a lot of you're dealing with you really you're dealing with like really sick people like people that have just for whatever reason they've not found their path they've not found any happiness they're not found any fulfillment they don't found it haven't found any growth they're just stifled or rotten and some sort of a weird way it just hasn't really worked for them and so they're they're lashing out they're lashing out at the world and you run into one of those you know people suck yeah and that's the initial response and then the more conscious response is to look at them be and have compassion for that yeah you know that's right that is hard to do and our system isn't based upon that even if you look at the US penal system it's very much about punishment whereas you watch that that documentary that Michael Moore did who to invade nests where they go to Norway they have a whole different idea of what the penal system is for it's about restoring human dignity and cultivating you know a change really making change in the person not about punishment it's about it's about actually changing that individual so he doesn't do it again and then you look at the recidivism rates between our prisons and Norway's prisons and they're just dramatically different that impulse to punish immediately you know is not the healthiest impulse gonna create more issues down the road you're not rehabilitating anybody you're just taking even more broken people and putting them out in the world and hoping they're not going to do the broken things well it's not gonna [ __ ] work you know the the right impulse is always that compassion and looking to see as if that was you how all of these [ __ ] up elements of the world and choices I'm not overriding the fact that they had choices in all this they're not free of guilt but look at look at that like this is the person that just made some bad choices and had some tough [ __ ] to deal with and couldn't overcome it the resistance in the video game was higher than his skillset and he wasn't able to to choose to work and choose to the the positive elements that would allow him to overcome it yeah yes it's it's also Norway's dealing with far fewer people true you know that's that's a good thing for them and it's also they don't have that conkers mentality that we have so we're so wrapped up in success and also in punishment I mean that that is a big aspect of our culture like punishment and I mean like when anyone does anything wrong online the amount of people that feel like it's their job to shame that person and embarrass that person and and insult that person it's pretty crazy to watch when something goes down it's also it's also counterproductive you know and I see that in the people shaming people for appropriation right so let's say for example someone wears a headdress at a [ __ ] festival right they're probably mildly they're not doing it to mock the Native Americans most like or probably like a a mild appreciation and interest I think this looks cool I'm in a place and you know and then all of a sudden they get all this intense hate and shame and and putting all of this stuff all of these intentions on them that weren't true again going back to my point about morality it's not about the act it's about the intentions of the act but right now we make it all about the act oh you wore this headdress that means you're insulting thousands of years of Native Americans you're oppressing you're appropriating like no I [ __ ] wasn't I was wearing a [ __ ] hair headdress but then all of a sudden that imprint will create trauma and that trauma will have a poisonous impact that will make them feel weird and make them want to do that to other people so it's like you're injecting someone with like a hate virus you know that they're gonna then pass on to other people rather than doing the opposite you know spreading the love herpes where yeah this contagious positivity that goes the other way and we have those choices with how to deal with people but more often than not we come with this thing to punish and create more trauma which triggers their own self judge and their own self hate lowers their own self-love and then they're gonna pass that off to kids family members people around them you know there's just two sets of dominoes that we can choose to take to take either path
