How to Make Today a Masterpiece

[@WinteFoxWisdom]

This is probably the most helpful video I've seen on KZbin in the last 8 years! Thank you for being such an inspiration

[@HeroicBrian]

Thank you!!!

[@syedhasan5348]

Hey Brian i have been listening to Philosophers Notes everyday for almost 10 months now. Always brings my mood up. Thanks :)

[@HeroicBrian]

Syed Hasan So great, Syed! I just created 25 new ones in the last month+. Can't wait to share 'em!!

[@JamesTeekel]

Not sure if I commented on this already but this was the first video I saw by you and I was like, "I gotta check out more!" I learned so much in this ONE video. I still have the ideas right by my desk. Awesome, AWESOME stuff!

[@HeroicBrian]

James Teekel Big smile. That is so great. Thanks for sharing, James!!! :)

[@JoeTreacy]

Your videos are so good I now have insomnia. lol. Each video gives me so many insights that it makes my brain go haywire. It's like getting a new paradigm uploaded into your brain in only 7-mins. This is way more efficient than reading.

I’m feeling blessed! Just found him!

[@roderickgraham5492]

I do like the idea of process reminds me of When an archer is shooting for nothing, he has all his skill. If he shoots for a brass buckle, he is already nervous. If he shoots for a prize of gold, he goes blind or sees two targets. He is out of his mind! His skill has not changed, but the prize divides him. He cares. He thinks more of winning than of shooting. And the need to win drains him of power. (Chuang Tzu) Thank you for an excellent video. I'm an old man with much to learn.

[@vicneese]

I've been listening to your audio notes every day before work for almost a year now. I try to cycle through a different set of notes each week, but often keep listening to a couple of the same ones each week. Great work Brian, glad to see new videos on your channel. Keep it up and thanks for your excellent contributions!

[@HeroicBrian]

Amazing and thank you, Vic!!

[@theinnerworkclub6060]

I’m going to do this too!

[@codywerner2161]

In my opinion, this is absolutely one of your best videos on KZbin! (though I haven't seen them all by any means...) It's very inspiring, very applicable, and purely awesome. Thank you so much for all of your hard work!

[@HeroicBrian]

Cody Werner Well that's amazing. Thanks, Cody! I appreciate your kind words and I'm thrilled you dug it!! :)

[@RodrigoFreitasGO]

I´ve learned a lot with you for almost 3 years now. Thanks a lot!

[@HeroicBrian]

Rodrigo Freitas Right on, Rodrigo! The fun has just begun. :)

[@KitanaJadePickett]

Wow! My professor has been using your notes for our class and I decided to follow up on some of the things mentioned in the hand outs. I am so glad that I found your channel, I am going to put a lot of this into practice next semester.

Of all philosophers notes this one is at the top. Thanks. I think because you're showing it's step by step application to yourself. 3AM to 7PM! Wow. It's like living in another time zone.

[@barbaralangston5654]

Brian, I'm amazed at how many books you read! How do you do it and make notes at the same time? Have you studied speed reading? I love your Philosopher's Notes because I can get the heart of a book in a short time. But I'd also like to know how to read faster and retain what I read. Keep up the good works - love it!

[@HeroicBrian]

Barbara Langston Thanks, Barbara! Short answer: I work on it 10 hours a day 5 days a week. :) I don't speed read but, having read a lot, I do read rather quickly and have a pretty good system for identifying Big Ideas/creating Notes after creating my 215th one this morning! As I read a book, I like to imagine having the opportunity to hang out with a great teacher, discussing their BEST stuff that they worked so hard to distill into that book. :)

Wow, I really want to wake up at 3AM now. Going to bed after midnight for years now and it's no good at all. Exercise, rest, nutrition. Don't want to hear it but so true. Got to start there to revitalise myself and keep chipping away.

Genuine question; what if you can't figure out your 'one thing'? I feel like I can do so many different things, and I am passionate about a lot, narrowing down my focus to one thing always feels restrictive and unnatural/unbalanced. What should someone do who struggles to find/focus on their one thing?

[@HeroicBrian]

Great question Blake. This feels like a longer chat that I'd love to have with you about! If you'd like to shoot me an email [e-mail] I'll curate some awesome Optimize ideas for you. -Zak | Team Optimize Optimize is now free! Sign up/tell your friends! www.optimize.me

[@jrthailand8982]

Hey Brian, I just discovered your channel and I love it! I am planning on taking a subscription but I have only 1 big question. There is so much content on your channel and website now that I don't know how to start. I don't want to consume your content but actually learn from it and implement it in my life. So would you recommend something like mastering 2 masterclasses a month and perhaps 2 PN's or would you do it differently? Thank you so much for your hard work. Robin

How can you sleep at 19:30? What happens if you have to stay up late? say up to 23:00

[@HeroicBrian]

***** In the winter here that's well after the sun goes down so it's actually easier to go to bed then than at 9:00 in the summer! I've organized my life so I pretty much never have to stay up late. Of course, this is my way which works for me. Trick is for each of us to discover ours and then adapt it and optimize it and have fun!

[@miagraceespiritu8511]

let me do it today!!! get up and do productive things on my off day! I can do it
