All right. Any other questions? That's all I got today. It's another wonderful day because again if you look at the news. Hey, Nimble Navigators. Oh yeah, Joe Biden is apologizing. So Joe Biden said he waited to apologize about this busing thing. Do you all understand the busing issue? I don't. Apparently the issue is Democrats think other Democrats are racist because they agree with each other on busing. I think that's it, right? Did I get that wrong? Tell me if I got any of the facts wrong. They're Democrats, especially Kamala Harris and Joe Biden. They are mad at each other because they agree completely on the issue of busing. That's a 20-year-old issue isn't it? Something like that. So it's sort of a non-issue that highlights how well things are going. If the Democrats are debating a topic from 20 years ago you're in good shape. Think about it. You're in really good shape if that's what you're doing.

Oh yeah so there's a story about Kelly O'Hara picking up the flag when the other player drops it on the ground. But I watched the video and it's obvious that there were three of the women's soccer team players who were going to do sort of a dance coordinated thing as a celebration. And one of them had the flag in her hand and she put it down for a minute to do the coordinated thing. I don't think she was thinking about it as being disrespectful. I think it was just, I just think she wasn't thinking. I doubt she put the American flag on the ground to make a statement. It was just a really thoughtless thing to do in public. But yeah she's young. People do thoughtless things.

So at the end of my Periscope from yesterday in which I did, I pinned yesterday's Periscope to the top of my Twitter page. I'm predicting it will be the most watched video that I've made so far. So far maybe seventy thousand or a hundred thousand people have looked at it if you count all the platforms together. If you count YouTube plus Periscope plus Rumble and so be probably around 100,000 people who have seen it by today. I'm thinking it might be the first video that I made that reaches a million viewers.

And at the end of the video I said something provocative. The nature of the video is, well you can just see it yourself. But at the end of it I said something that got a lot of reaction. So a lot of people are quoting me and reacting to it. And what I said was this sentence and listen to it carefully because you have to listen to it carefully to get what's happening. It's just one sentence. And I said, "God is what's left over after you take everything away. God is what's left over after you take everything away."

Now here's what's interesting about this and here's why I said it. Every one of you heard that, you had a different opinion of what it meant. You probably registered it as profound without knowing what it meant. All right I'm going to read it again and see if your brain recognizes it as profound at the same time you're not sure what it means. Okay. "God is what's left after you take everything away." It sounds profound, right? You register it that way but you're not sure exactly what it means. And what people demonstrated in the comments is what I thought would happen is that everybody had a different interpretation of what it meant.

You can interpret this as a statement that God exists outside of the normal rules of physics and matter. You could interpret it as saying that there's no God because you took everything away and there wouldn't be anything left. You could interpret it as the simulation. You could interpret it any way you want but that's the point. So what's profound about it is that the statement is exactly like all of your different views of the world. It is a statement that was subjective reality. The statement is that you can all look at exactly the same stuff. You can look at the same picture. You can look at the same words. You can think of the same idea. But the way you process that will be an entirely different world. And this sentence is one of those little ways where you can see that clearly.

So I'll say it again. God is what's left after you take everything away. As you watch people completely reinterpret that as opposites, meaning that means God doesn't exist or that means that God does exist and he's beyond time and space and matter, you can see the entire world. Everything about your reality is in this sentence once you understand that people are looking at the reality and interpreting it as their own movie. And there's nothing you can do about that and nor should you. I mean there's no reason to do anything about it. We're living our own subjective reality and once you get that you become free.

Once you if you understand reality to be objective then what it feels like is that you're a victim of reality. Reality is here and it's imposing its will on you and you're doing the best you can but reality is going to win. It's subjective and it's controlling you. It controlled your DNA. It controls your choices. It controls what your options are. It's reality is objective and you're its victim. But once you realize that we're all living subjective realities and that those subjective realities pretty much all work, some better than others, but they all work. Meaning that you can live your life thinking that you reincarnated from a cow and I can live my life believing in a Christian world. You can, somebody else can live their life believing in an Islamic interpretation of the world and we can all eat, breathe, procreate. It works fine. These are completely different worldviews.

Once you understand that reality is subjective here's the cool part. You can control it. I just let that sit there for a moment. Once you realize that reality is subjective you can control it. That's how you escape the matrix is understanding that it's under your control. And that's the first, probably the first and most important mental shift you have to make, is to understand that you control your reality and that your reality is complete. You can actually make things happen by focusing, by just putting your energy, your attention, reinterpreting things, reading things you need to do, doing what you need to do, having systems that get you where you want. There are things that you can move and control that will change your reality.

You're watching me right now having a fairly substantial impact on the country. Now do you think that I believe I live in an objective world where the only things I can do are the things that reality has allowed for me? It's like you only have this path. It's the only path you can get on. Can't get on that path. I don't live in that world. I live in a subjective reality and because I understand it to be subjective I don't see limitations the way I used to. I would have imagined okay I don't have this set of skills so I can't do that. I don't have this training so I can't do that. I don't have enough time. I don't have enough money. Somebody's going to dislike me. I'm going to embarrass myself. It might not work out. What if it goes wrong? That's objective reality and it's a prison.

Once you realize that there are fairly ordinary mechanisms that you can control, meaning your mind, the systems you use to live your life, the things you focus on, the things you care about, the things you dream of, that these actually produce different realities. Not you can't make a car disappear. You can't make an elephant appear. You can't make a bag of money appear. Doesn't work like that. But you can absolutely steer. Your reality is there's still going to be stuff out there that's exterior to you but you can steer your way to the movie you want.

Have you watched me do this by the way? Somebody's saying that the proof is my girlfriend Christina. That's pretty good proof. So somebody says is this in Loserthink? The ideas that you're hearing now are sort of spread across my existing books. "How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big." Also in my book "Win Bigly" about persuasion in general. And if you really want a total mind effing you should read my book "God's Debris." "God's Debris" is fiction but it's designed to, it's designed for you to feel, for the first time in many cases it would be the first time that people felt it, to feel that reality could be reinterpreted in a completely different way and still work. So that's what "God's Debris" is about. It's fiction but as you read it it's designed, because I used hypnosis techniques as well as writing techniques, it's designed to make most readers, not everyone of you because everybody's different, but it's designed to make most readers have the sensation that they could understand reality through a different filter for the first time. And that that filter works as well as the filter they came to it with.

Once you realize that you can see the world through two different filters, in other words two movies, two different realities, and they both work, that's the key. They both work. If you don't get that part you've missed the secret. I hate to say the secret because that's the name of the book. But if you believe that you just went from one filter on reality and then you've got another one. You said oh this new one is so, I'll get rid of the old one. You haven't learned the lesson. The lesson is they both work. That's the lesson. So that's what "God's Debris" tries to teach you indirectly and in a fictional sense.

"Loserthink" is more about mental traps than we get into and how to get out of them. And so I'll talk a lot more about that in the coming months. It's due out in November.

What about chronic health problems? Well some of you may know that I had a problem with my voice. I lost my ability to speak for three and a half years and it was an incurable problem. So I lived in this for a while. I lived in this objective reality where some people get this condition called spasmodic dysphonia which is what I had which makes your vocal cords scrunch together when you're trying to talk and so you can't produce intelligible noise. When I learned that it was incurable, there was no cure, I would never be able to speak again, did I say to myself oh no I am a victim of a reality that is objective and now I know the rules and the rules say that this is incurable. I guess that's the rest of my life.

Imagine going the rest of your life not being able to speak. 40, 50 years of life not being able to speak. Just imagine it. Okay that's the reality that I was handed. I chose to violate that reality. I chose to violate it from the first day that I found out it was incurable. I told myself that someday I would be doing this. I would be talking to a large number of people with a perfect voice. Now my voice isn't perfect but if you heard my voice before I had the voice problem it's the best it's ever been. In other words my current speaking voice, the one you hear right now, is substantially better than the best voice I ever had before I had a voice problem.

I said I'm not going to settle for getting my voice back. I said that every single day. Every time I got in my car I repeated to myself mentally, "Scott Adams will have a perfect voice." Every day for three and a half years I hunted down the one doctor in the world who was
