Listen all the way through to the end, because I will be giving away this copy of the book to, but for now let's get right to the excerpt as we optimize your life, an is from the book I'm here escape your mind and free yourself by Tommy Soccer introduction, quote, We are all living in cages with the door wide open. George Lucas, lock and key Budapest born advice was one of seven children. He arrived in the United States and his mother's arms in eighteen. Seventy eight, twenty two years later. Harry handcuff Houdini was baffling police in Scotland Yard here nobody was and became the world's most famous escape artist. Houdini boasted he a break out of a jail cell in the world and then one hour and every time He was tested, he would escape in just a few short minutes, but one

I'm things NGO go as Houdini had planned, has a story was a small town in the british Isles, built a new lock up, heartily invited Houdini become give their showpiece. Try as usual, routine accepted the challenge without hesitation. He arrived All the cell pregnant with confidence, and once the door was clear, close and he was left alone. Houdini went to work. He coughed up a special log, pick quickly releases, handkerchiefs and honed in on the door, but there was something strange about this particular lock. Thirty, fortress minutes tried on and Houdini was rattled after sixty Houdini was crestfallen and drenched in sweat, exhausted he collapse against. Heavy metal door and it swung open Houdini was astonished to discover that the door was never law at least not an objective reality. It was only locked in his mind. Does a quote often attributed to the gray who

my mind is the key that says me. Free mines can certainly be keys, but more often they are locks. The lock you and I more like Houdini vine and mental prisons, of our own creation and a loss of those cells, or the stories we tell ourselves stories are make believe we make them up or others make them up for us and eventually we come believe them. We call those inherited and learned accounts of life. Reality. Do you feel back by a reality by their stories are telling yourself about yourself in your life, and smothered by mine on more than a few occasions. Locked up in a stifling cell of my own creation so far managed to find a way out, and thankfully it was never Houdini, like public spectacle, dream most recent down around three years ago, I felt like a caged animal. I found myself piecing back and forth. Sir

c start and had no idea where to turn or what to do there. I've said it. He would have noticed that one did but came over me like a dark cloud, I dont think of depression? I didn't feel sad or worthless. I felt spiritless and confused eyes. A lifetime, stunning psychology, philosophy, mythology, brain signs, human decisionmaking, blah blah blah, and I could not make him meaningful decision to save my life. One quote, The pleasure of the world has crossed the threshold and as overturn the order of the soul, Leonard Cohen, but, alas Coleridge the romantic poet John Keys. Lived. His short life with intense passion, Mu Bai Assent there's an imagination. He won't I'm beauty in a world of suffering and his writing. Radio reflection of those dreams, Keats was So a great admirer of Shakespeare. He wants described the bars genius as a native capability quote that once is truck

what quality went to form a man of achievement, especially literature and which Shakespeare they're. So enormously. I mean negative capability, that is when and is capable of being an uncertainties, mysteries douse without any. Irritable reaching after fact, and reason quote uninhibited open without judgment, giving oneself fully to the process. To that which is being experience without the need to figure out what the desire for gain. Sadly, there sentiment is antithetical to today's goal, obsessed culture and anxiety, feels, like I said, is sucking the Spirit or the people and which he sure was across my eggs, for I often found myself wondering. Why do it what's its purpose? Was he going to accomplish. Driven instinctively by my insatiable desire to understand to connect the dots like another romantic poet, Samuel Taylor, George obsessively search for the truth of the human condition and the mysteries of the natural world,

A gorgeous compulsion as narrowly subjective Keats believe that the inspiration power beauty was more important than the quest for meaning. It has taken me quite a while to wake up to it, assuming I actually have, but Keats was right. When our dog pursuit of knowledge and goals we have forgotten to live to subdue self concern and identify with others, to open up fully to hear now experiences, and to embrace or apathetic impulses and imaginative creativity, so I'm to try to stop getting all the dots. It's really hard, Sub, trying predictin, unknowable future even harder and instead be connected in passionate part of the present. For his Gerda may clear, was important in life.
