My new book Own Or Be Owned is out now! I wrote Own or Be Owned to answer one question: How do you make more money, less miserably? I broke it into the 12 Profit Levers… The 12 levers I've seen determine whether you print cash or hate your life. Check it out: https://contrarianthinking.biz/bigdeal-yung-pueblo
You’ve been telling yourself the same story: you need more time to start meditating, the perfect conditions to find peace, or for everything to settle before clarity comes. But the only thing between you and the life you want may be believing you need something you don’t already have. Yung Pueblo is a bestselling author with millions of followers who has spent more than a year of his life in silent meditation retreats and meditates two hours every day.
In this episode, you'll learn:
Why pain has a magnetic force that can pull you toward evolution or trap you in darkness, and how building awareness through meditation creates the spacious mind you need to choose skillfully
The slow down framework: how pausing before you react gives you the space to transmute defensive impulses into productive action, and why your first reaction is never the real you
Why Yung Pueblo meditates two hours every day no matter what and how spending more than a year of his life in silent retreats taught him that the breath and the body give you total access to all the wisdom in the universe
How to tell the difference between ego and intuition: ego is snappy, loud, and mental, while intuition feels bodily, calm, and like waves repeatedly pointing you toward the same direction
The don't grab anything principle: how observing everything that arises without grabbing onto any story or emotion reveals that all pain eventually passes away, and why letting go is healing but never a one-time event
