I want to speak today on the topic of the fourth dimension. If you've been coming to our church for any time, you probably have heard us use the word fourth dimension. You have heard a young single man pull out a list of 25 things he wants in the fourth dimension in his future wife. And you might have asked the question, what is fourth dimension? And so there's a very famous book that was written by the pastor of the largest church in the world called fourth dimension. It describes about what faith is like. The word fourth dimension comes from the geometry where the one line between two points is called the first dimension, the first dimension, the plane is called the second dimension, cube is called the third dimension and anything that's not visible to a natural eye or not limited to space, time is called the fourth dimension. It's like the spiritual world. Your thoughts is fourth dimension, your motives is fourth dimension, your spirit is fourth dimension.  You cannot see it with your five senses. And that's what fourth dimension is. Not understanding the law of faith or not understanding this principle of fourth dimension limits us in three areas. One is that we cannot operate in faith fully. The second one is that we are limited from the miraculous in our life. And thirdly is that we cannot cooperate with the Holy Spirit without understanding and embracing the law of faith which I'm going to refer today as the fourth dimension. If you have your Bible, let's go together with me to Matthew chapter 25 and verse 29. For to everyone who has more will be given and he will have abundance. But from him who does not have even what he has will be taken away. This same exact verse was mentioned in Matthew chapter 13 after Jesus explained the parable of the sower, the seed, and the soil. And he explained the parable, came to his disciples and said, you guys knew me or know me as the Lord and the Messiah. Now I'm giving you the secrets of the kingdom. And disciples were like, well, Jesus, we already know your God. Go to the people and explain them the secrets. And Jesus says this, he who has more will be given and he will have abundance. He who doesn't have even what he thinks to have or he has physically will be taken away. Now this Bernie Sanders will not like this verse. I'm just for once in a politics. This is brutal. Talk about helping the needy. Jesus says you don't have it, I'll take what you think to have away. You're like, wow. And he says, if you have it, more will be given to you all. And on the top of that, you'll get abundance. I accept in Jesus' name. We read the verse. We read the parable. I want to explain to you today about principle of faith from this verse. It's a very painful principle, but it works all the time. The king gives a five talents to one guy. He gives less talents to another guy and he gave one talent to last guy. Talent is a measure of weight. It's a weight. Talent is not like a gift to sing or to perform. Talent here, it's a weight. It's like we use ounces or pounds. It's a weight. So probably a certain amount of gold, certain or silver or precious stones, but he gave him certain weight of things to one guy, second guy, and the third guy. Each two guys went in, invested things. One guy came in and he buried it and they all came back. He rewarded them. He says, great job. And the guy who came with one thing, he didn't do anything with it. The king takes away that one talent and he does something very offensive. He gives it to the guy who has the most talents.  That's already an insult because you don't give everyone equally and now he didn't do anything with it. You're taking that one thing away from him and you're giving to the guy with 10 talents. He already has enough. And the king said this. He said to him who has more will be given and he will have abundance. To him who doesn't have in here, inside, he said what he has in there on the outside will be taken away and he will be completely bankrupt on the outside because he's already been bankrupt on the inside. The big idea of this message this morning is this, the state of your mind is more important than the condition of your life. The state of your mind is more important than the condition in your body. The state of your mind, your inner world is more important than the digits in your bank account than the degrees on your wall than the family you're coming from. Your inner world is a magnet. If you have nothing here, you attract more of nothing until you get abundance of nothing. If you have something here, an attitude of faith, an attitude of positive outlook in the middle of negative situations, what happens is that you begin to have more given to you of that and then you have even more abundance. So the secret is not to change my circumstances. The secret is to connect with God's word and God's spirit to change the attitude and the atmosphere in my inner world, in my mind, because somebody shouted amen. Bible says our life is transformed by the renewing of our mind, means our life is the result of the state of our mind. Apostle Paul says Romans chapter 12 verse 2. It's not the other way around. The Bible doesn't say your mind is changed when your life is changed. It says your life is changed when your mind is changed.  Can somebody say amen? I didn't hear you, can somebody shout amen? But for many of us, what's been changing our mind is our circumstances. When it's our mind that's supposed to be changing the circumstances and our mind is supposed to be under influence of a greater reality called the Holy Spirit and the Holy Scriptures. Can somebody shout amen? You know there was this interesting story I heard, I saw a clip once of this comedian Jim Carrey, where in 1985, 1987, I'm sorry, he was homeless, he had nothing going for him and he took a blank check, a blank check, he had no money in his account and a blank check. He wrote a check to himself for $10 million and he dated 1985, 1995, I'm sorry, 1995 he wrote a check for $10 million, signed it and put his name there that he's giving a check to himself he will get in 1995 a check for $10 million. This has nowhere to live, has no money whatsoever. Somehow he gets auditioned for this movie that many of you have rewatched and quoted like the Holy Written Scriptures, Dumb and Dumber, number one and it's his personality fits into that movie perfectly and it's interesting that out of that movie he receives a royalty check in 1994, so a year before his faith check was written for exactly $10 million. So what you have here, you begin to attract more of that and then you get abundance of it and when you don't have it here, the Bible says even what you have in there gets taken away.   Have you ever done it? You're like something must be wrong.  When you are poor here, you're constantly waiting for somebody to give you something. Taxes season is the Jehovah's jihuda in your life because there is only one way God can bless me and that is if I get a hundred fifty dollar refund, it's the poverty here and somebody gives you a thousand dollars and you see within two weeks it's gone, where? It's gone, why? Because a poor person here will always be a poor person here and there and have abundance of what is here. Last Sunday when a young person received a car, I overheard a conversation by another wonderful person in our church and said I was really hoping I will receive the car and I said this particular person who said that has education, has a good job and has money and I said I am disappointed that by now you're not dreaming to give a car, you're still waiting for someone to give you one. I remember when two years ago, me and my wife, we gave our second car and this is what I'm talking to you, this is starting to pain me because after we gave the car we had a hundred fifty dollars in our savings and checkings combined, fifty and one and a hundred in the other one. No money whatsoever, we were not able, we had no vehicles at all and that we didn't have any resources to go get a car and I am inside, though I gave a vehicle, I somehow believed in the law of sowing and reaping was my twisted view of that law. I was a beggar here because I expected someone to give me a car the next day and I remember two weeks past no one gave me a car so I made phone calls, I had two friends that owned dealerships, I called them, I didn't want to say hey I don't have a car, could you give me one? I wanted to use a religious manipulative way because the beggar inside of me says I gave a car somebody should give me a car and nobody, those guys they offered me a forty five thousand dollar Lexus and I was like sorry I gotta go, someone else is calling me, it was my way of hanging up and I remember something inside of me snapped and I realized the problem wasn't with somebody giving me a car, the problem is that the beggar inside of me has to go off of life support and die and I have to stop expecting, why? Because people are not gonna supply my needs, there is a God in heaven who leads my life and he will supply my needs, my aim is not who will give me, my aim has to be even from that point on, I'm gonna give Nexir another car, Nexir another car, that is my aim and it's interesting when you shift inside and you stop being a beggar inside, not on the outside, inside something begins to shift, you begin to attract the very things you are and if nobody gives you a car, you'll go ahead and give yourself a car and now instead of hoping that somebody blessed me, me and my wife we plan and this is not to brag, this is to testify that on inside something shift we plan when we look for the year we don't look and who will give us something, we plan strategically once a year who we gonna bless, the funny part is the more we do that, the more somehow miraculously things get attracted and God begins to bless us more, people love to give to people who don't expect it, people love to give to people who don't beg for it, we need to help the needy but you have to understand if you are the needy person, be needy in your wallet not in your mind, be needy in your finances, not in your spirit, you may literally need money for pay utility business, it doesn't mean you shouldn't go ask, you shouldn't ask for help, no, no, no, but make sure your mind is never at the level of your circumstances, your mind is on the level of the promises of God and the reality that you're a child almost by God, you may have holes in your shoes but in your spirit you're full of abundance because you only attract who you are because somebody say amen, I want to share with you based on this story today, the simple how to break down the fourth dimension into our life, I want you to write down point number one is don't let the third dimension trample the fourth dimension, don't let the third dimension trample the fourth dimension, if you can maybe redo them so make them on the full screen the rest of the points, that would be nice, don't make the third dimension trample on the fourth dimension, what that means is this, is that your mind should not reflect your life, your life should reflect your mind, your mind should, your mind is in the fourth dimension meaning it's in invisible world and it should be affected by the supreme ruler of the invisible world the Holy Spirit, your mind supposed to be a servant to the Holy Spirit, not a slave to your reality, your mind should not supposed to be running errands of disease, sickness and poverty, your mind supposed to be a faithful disciple to the Holy Spirit, say Holy Spirit you are my prince, see what happens is when our mind is not a disciple of the Holy Spirit it becomes a slave of cancer, of tumor, arthritis, abuse, hurt, loneliness, negative words, people circumstances it becomes trampled and whoever is not lazy tramples on our mind, that's why Jesus says when a sower went out to the only soil where the bird stole the seed was a sidewalk, you know what the sidewalk is, it's when everyone walks over you, when you have a mind that you abuse your past, your circumstances, your finances, your husband, your feelings walk over you, anything gets thrown by the Holy Spirit in your direction, it doesn't even land on you, the devil just takes it, takes it, takes it because your mind is a sidewalk, it's supposed to be a disciple of the Holy Spirit, not a sidewalk for everything from your past, your abuse, your feelings, or your circumstances, your mind is a disciple, not a sidewalk, somebody say amen, when your mind is a sidewalk you blame other people like this man, he said the reason why I hid my talent is because you master, you're terrible, you're angry, you steal and so it gives me right not to be my best because you're not your best, people with the sidewalk mindsets are the people who say the reason why I am angry because my wife is crazy, the reason why I'm lonely is because nobody loves me, the reason why I believe what I believe now is because I've been abused, what you're saying is that your mind is a reflection of your circumstances and you're always blaming other people, I am poor because I've never been going to school, I don't have the proper documents, I don't have the proper connections, someone always gets ahead of me, I've never preferred, people always hate me, everybody hates me and that's why I am that I am, you're a slave to your reality because you're not a disciple to the Holy Spirit, your mind will either be a disciple or a slave, it's like the guy, the older gentleman who had a mustache and his children came and they put they put a special cheese on his mustache, it smells, he woke up from the couch, he says the couch smells, he goes into the living room, realizes the living room smells, goes into the kitchen, the kitchen smells, he went to the bathroom, the bathroom smells, he says man I need to get out of this smelly house, he goes into the outside and he says the whole world smells and that's how many of us, our husband smells, our children smell, our boss smells, the church smells, the pastor smells, everybody smells and it's maybe it's you who smell, maybe it's here stinking thinking that smells, they need to be washed off by the precious blood of Jesus Christ because somebody shout amen, when it's everyone's problem it's probably your problem and it's not your problem, it's the mind problem that needs to be renewed by the word of God and the Holy Spirit because somebody say amen, don't let life trample you, the Bible tells me Jesus gives me power to trample, me to trample, the Bible never gave power to your life to trample you, it gave you power to trample it, many of us were like the sidewalk we're being trampled day and night, I want you today to restore your holy dignity, your identity in Christ Jesus to tell you this, fourth dimension is this, is when your third dimension, third dimension is what you see, what you feel, what's going on around you, you have to divorce, you have to tell that dimension you are no longer gonna change me, I'm gonna change you because I am connected to the Holy Spirit and you're connected to me amen, point number two we move from point of defeat to the position of victory, the Bible says this man says verse 25 and I was afraid and I went and hid your talent in the ground, he had a point of defeat, fear and out of this point he started to make decisions, he started to act, see every time every time what you do it's not what we do that matters as much as what are we doing it from am I doing it from the position of victory or am I doing it from the point of defeat he said I was afraid, I was in panic, I was desperate, I was lonely, I was abused, I was rejected and therefore I reacted toward that, see many of us make decisions in a swamp, our feet are wobbly, the Bible says he takes us, God takes us from the Maori clay, he takes us from the swamp and puts our feet on the rock, listen your life might be in a swamp but your feet has to be on the rock, you have to be stable, your decisions, your prayer, your fasting has to come from a position of I know who I am, I am on a rock, I am not in a swamp, I'm not going to drain the swamp, I'm not going to pray for the swamp, I'm going to move from swamp to the rock see right now we are praying for souls, I found myself and we started to do more focus on Sunday service and we don't see as many people coming to the front for salvation on Sunday as on Wednesday, we start to fast like we're gonna fast tomorrow, day after and Wednesday and I found myself a few months ago praying out of desperation saying God, nobody getting saved, God this is bad, God this is hard and you know when you start going that prayer it's kind of an old Pentecostal like the dirtier I am the more victim you make yourself to be before God somehow like you're gonna squeeze the father's hand and God's gonna say oh since you're so bro busted and disgusted here we go and then you leave that kind of prayer you're like man I felt so much better before I prayed and I wonder if I stop praying and I will feel better because prayer is little like a vacuum sucking everything out of me and I don't want this and on the top of that I fasted if I wouldn't if I would have eaten and not prayed would have felt great and I remember the Holy Spirit started to convict me he said Vlad you have to stop fasting and praying out of the position of defeat it's not desperation that moves God it's the revelation it's the faith that moves God pray out of the position of the vision you have of people coming to the salvation not out of the need that nobody's coming to salvation it's a point and a position one is a point of defeat one is a point nothing happened last Sunday the other one is a position of the future something is gonna happen next Sunday see you can fast it's not the fasting the Bible says the righteous the foolish and the wise men both build great houses one had a rock the other one had a swamp we all gonna fast I'm gonna challenge you this fast thing is gonna be building a house but first of all I want you to build your mindset you're not fasting out of a need you're fasting out of a vision a dream a faith that you have for your future with God there's somebody say man you're not giving out of desperation desperation may be a point to trigger something but desperation is not what's gonna keep you what's gonna keep you is a confident revelation that God is on my side I am a victor broke like a joke but that's only in my wallet in my mind I am blessed with Abraham in my mind the Lord is my shepherd he's the El Shaddai he is the Adonai he is my God in my mind I am healed in Christ in my body I am still sick I'm going to the doctor tomorrow but that's my body my mind is linked with the Holy Ghost Hallelujah somebody say amen somebody say hallelujah somebody say move so get the swamp out of your life my feet are on the rock means be stable in your prayer many of us we instead of feeling our focus is feeling better instead of thinking better that's why drugs are very popular our generation is a feeler generation bible calls you a believer not a feeler you have feelings but feelings is not who you are faith is who you are bible says we belong to the household of faith we have the word of faith we have the spirit of faith we have the gift of faith to live a life of faith feeling is a luxury but feeling is not where my feet are resting on if you're feeling if your feet are resting on your feelings you will not last through just few weeks of Christian life your marriage will not last finances will not last rest your feet on the promises of God because somebody say amen number three is we fill our mind with right information we fill our mind with right information this man said in the verse 20 24 Lord I knew you I knew you to be a hard man see not only we know that he was blaming others for the lack of his success not only we know that he made decisions out of fear instead of faith but now he tends to be mister no at all he knows everything he says you know why i'm afraid because i knew something i know you really i realized in the very short life that i've lived we don't see things the way they are we see things the way we are and lonely person will always think everyone is not liking them every place they go a friendly person will walk into the most hostile room and always find friends a poor person will look at every opportunity somebody's out to get them somebody's always out to punish them a person it's always you always are looking through the lenses of your surface seam through the lenses of your own faith he says I knew you other guys knew the master differently what you fill your mind with is information that is used by the Holy Spirit to cook up a revelation a revelation it becomes i know revelation becomes i'm convinced revelation is it's a stronghold revelation is that you don't even choose to think like that it thinks for you already it's automatic response that's a revelation and the revelation always brings a manifestation means brings a change in your life the problem is the mindset but mindsets are formed by the overflow of what the mind is filled with so what we need to do is this we must understand we cannot change our mindset we can only change what we fill our mind with and the Holy Spirit will take out of that bucket and begin to pour into the bucket of our mindset because it's the work of the Holy Spirit and then he creates i know he says i knew you're angry Job said i know my redeemer lives Paul said i know whom i believed in chains beaten ship wrecked drowned he says i know he holds everything in his hand and he says he will bring me up at the last day what do you know what do you know what do you know whatever you fill your mind with will soon becomes your stronghold information leads to revelation revelation becomes your manifestation watch what you fill your mind with be protective of what goes into your mind unpurposed fill your mind with information that you want to be in the future as a reality of your life don't be an emotional wreck don't be an emotional drama what the only thing you need is just to feel good the bible doesn't say men lives by the amount of music he listens to it says by the amount of the word of god he feeds himself with you got to fill yourself with information because somebody say amen you cannot control how you feel but you can control what you feed yourself with faith is not how we feel faith is how we think and how we think is affected by the information we put into our mind and the last point is align your confession align your confession this man said i knew this and this i thought we're talking about filling information not the music align your confession and this simply means is that make sure your confession helps you to be where you're planning to go instead of being contradictory the prodigal son was in the bit in the midst of the big spin and then he said this to himself he says i will go to my father's house i will say this and this he's still sitting in the big pin he's still sitting in his mess but his own mouth listen to this is paving away for his feet your confession will create a path for your feet your confession will either describe your situation ah my wife is crazy ah just my kids are just just nuts the devil's children ah my finances they're just i am so poor i just never have enough i just need to work extra why because we don't have enough what you just did is you released a path for more poverty your finances are right here but remember where they're going well your confession just paved the path for them and guess what happened to the prodigal son his feet went into the very place where just minutes ago his mouth went already and he didn't even finish his his repentance when the father already blessed him with more you will always get more what you confess but confession pays the way for your feet to walk you may say but well you you know my reality my reality is remember we said our mind is not a slave to our reality our mind is a disciple of the holy spirit and therefore you choose to confess you look at your wonderful husband or your wonderful wife and you say you're the best thing that had happened to me like what if i don't believe it you will your feet will catch up to your mouth but if you keep walking around and saying you stupid thing you crazy thing you never you always you remember one thing even if you believe in your heart they're the best thing your feet just went twisted you cursed your spouse you cursed your children you may say they are already cursed well this is not going to help with your confession your confession has to help to change the situation by the word of god do not let your mouth betray your inner reality your mouth can help to change that inner reality by the word of god god said if you're poor god didn't say walk around say i'm broke god says say i'm blessed god says if you're weak don't walk around and say i'm so weak i'm so old i'm so heavy so hard he says i'm strong say what you want to see not what you feel otherwise you put a lock on your circumstances and then you can pray till you lose your pulse nothing's gonna shift what you have you will always get more and abundance what you don't have you will get even that which you think to have taken away from you you may say well my circumstances are tough be tougher you see but but the sickness is stubborn well tell your sickness you stubborn i am stubborn too you're not the only one that's stubborn like rubble schuller used to say tough times don't last tough people do be tough you may say but but what if nothing changes what if i walk around believing my spouse will get saved my children will save and nothing will change what if i walk around i believe that i am healed by the stripes of jesus i still know that i have a sickness and my sickness will never leave now look at the other side you're gonna die you're not gonna have a sickness no more the sickness on this earth the bible says at the end of the day god's gonna roll up the earth like carpet and burn it so no matter what your sickness is gonna leave so you gotta mentally tell the devil and tell yourself you're leaving if the devil says not now you're like you will steal i will be without sickness for eternity and you gonna burn either now or later but you'll burn you're a winner you're not a loser because somebody say man now i want to correct something in the end we are not trying to teach people to ignore the presence of their problem we're not telling you to ignore the presence of your affliction we're just encouraging you to reject its rule over your life you can be sick in the body not in the mind sick in here or poor in here but not in here you're not rejecting its presence faith is not being saying it doesn't exist faith is saying it exists but it's not gonna rule me because i am ruled my lord is not tumor my lord's name is Yahweh my lord is not bankruptcy my lord's name is jesus my lord's name is not loneliness my lord's name is Yahweh the lord is one can somebody say amen do you receive something this morning church


Good afternoon everyone. So I'm going to talk about bees. I have a kind of very short Talk three parts the good story the bad story and then some good news at the end so The agency is here in Copenhagen. It's in Kong's new tour and one of the things that my staff particularly Feel very strongly about is not only do we have actually the greatest jobs on the planet because we get to Interfer often with governments and with industry and try to get them to do a better job But one of the things that's frustrating sometimes is that it's all about paperwork and sitting in the office So about two years ago We decided that we wanted to really do something to make a difference and we found here in Copenhagen a fantastic project It's called booby. It's a social project Really aimed at trying to give people who are socially disadvantaged and homeless an opportunity to create revenue to create a living and When you meet some of the beekeepers you discover that actually beekeeping has saved their lives in some cases Well, what did we do? Well last year we built an entire facade of flowers and effectively brought to Copenhagen urban farming vertical farming and on that basis We then put beehives up on the top of the roof and it's a totally Simple thing to do, but I think what's special about the project is that and we produce lots of honey We produced Many many kilos on a particular day and all through the year we get different kinds of honey So this one is flavored with linden trees. So 60 kilos harvested over a 24-hour period So you get a lot of honey out of two big hives So we have 80,000 bees. They seem to be quite happy But what's really nice is the beekeepers they then come and harvest it They take it to the bee factory to the honey factory and then they sell it on So bees are absolutely amazing because often people say to me, ah, you know bees in an urban setting that's really bad It's really polluting But you know when a bee goes out harvesting and just to give you an idea to harvest a kilo There's probably been about a hundred and forty four thousand kilometers flown. So these bees are very very busy When a bee arrives at the at the hive and it's been harvesting across the city Of course, it's going to pick up pollen and nectar that is Contaminated it will have some heavy metals in it because of air Quality to do with cars and so on but when the bee arrives it's sort of met by another bee that then Takes the now.  Neutral We're trying to persuade a lot of other rooftops to take this on but we're not the only place the Opera in Paris has had them for 25 years and they harvest 500 kilos of honey So these are things that are well understood and one of the things that we're doing in the agency is to try To visit cities all over the world. New York is one and many others and persuade mayors to change their views about people having Bees on the rooftops because there's many many myths, you know bees they create swarms. They're dangerous You know they'll sting people But I want to just talk just for a couple of minutes about more to do with pollution One of the things that worries me when I listen to many of you talking about foraging Probably not up in the northern part of Sweden, but but that might also be a case is that we Monitor and observe all over the world the impacts of European industry and A very very sobering thought is that if you go to Greenland one of the potentially cleanest places on the planet There is virtually no industry there If you look at the food and you test the population What you find is that the human population particularly women have the highest body burden of heavy metals and So I think one of the big challenges now is for many of us who are very very keen on Encouraging food to be grafted to be foraged and to be brought in from kind of local settings is That there's some confidence about whether the food is polluted or not And so one of the real I think big issues for me is how can we make it possible for those of you who want to Gather food in this way to be confident that it isn't contaminated that it doesn't have heavy metals or different kinds of pollutants within it what we do understand is that many places are just Kind of unknown that there are places on the planet where we just have no information And we would be delighted to host the food world as well as all the environment world and the health world Who are already kind of well on their way to developing and being part of that so thanks very much for the time


Nigeria faces a debt crisis with a debt burden of more than 33 trillion naira and 97 percent of revenue spent on service in the debt. How can we solve this challenge? The southern governors ban on open grays and divides Nigeria in number of groups in support and a particular Fulani cultural group totally opposed to it. We'll be talking to a lead of the group who says the South should forget about the presidency in 2023. And tribute spore in from entertainers and everyday Nigerians for talented artists and singer Saum Sultan who died at the age of 44. Good morning and thank you for joining us here on PLOS TV Africa another very beautiful Monday morning edition of The Breakfast. We hope you had a great weekend and once again thanks for joining us. Good morning. Yes good morning and good morning to you. Good to see you this morning. Same here. How was your weekend? It was short as always. I was here I left here what almost 11 p.m. on Saturday and of course I just had Sunday to rest but back at it again on Monday morning but you know let's see how the week goes we hope it's gonna be really really interesting. Yes and the sad thing is I don't know it seems we'll have two bad stories for our top trending even though some people would say it's good news for the rest of the world and you know bad for just England but we know that it didn't come home did it? No it did not you know just like I had predicted on Thursday you know say with that yeah I said it wasn't gonna come home you know so everyone who was I'm not even sure why Nigerians were saying it's coming home. Coming home where? Nigeria was in plane you know in the Euro so what do you mean by coming home and so yes I didn't want England to win you know for personal reasons and yesterday you know after they lost so I feel bad for you know Saka and Rashford and Sancho and every other you know player and of course including Manchester United players but I feel bad for them but you know seeing the reaction that the England fans had after they lost you know it really just makes me you know say loud and clear that yes it's good they didn't come home immediately they lost the racism kicked in immediately they lost you know the racial abuse kicked in you know if you look at Saka's Instagram page you know it's all filled with monkey and emojis and the likes there's also video clips of people being assaulted as they got out of the stadium you know mostly you know Italian fans and some black people being assaulted after the day as they you know made their way out of the stadium so yes you know good for them it didn't come home you know I'm proud of the Italians and like myself and Wally Scott had predicted he was definitely gonna be you know an Italy win it really showed you know a lot of you know the lapses with regards I feel you know it showed the lapses with Garret Southgate you know compared to the Italian coach Mancini I think it's his name so congratulations to Italy I know it didn't come home I have so many questions regarding this game where England lost to Italy because first of all I want to know your personal reasons you mentioned that you had personal reasons why you didn't want England to win and it seemed like it that was how it was for majority of you know football lovers around the world they didn't want England to win could you shed more lights on exactly why well I really I really said it you know because I I knew the attitude of the England fans you know and if they had won they wouldn't hear the last of it we'll probably hear of this bragging for the next 10 years and they would never let it go you know so there is that and then also because of what happened immediately after they lost you know how the races immediately kicked in you know so that's not that's not you know a team that I would you know support I want you know some success for the English national team because it's been too long since they you know picked up any trophy anywhere not even in terrestrial markets they haven't gotten any trophy anywhere but you know because of these little you know factors here and there I like the fact that their team has grown and it's a totally different and very very fresh team that we're seeing more tactical you know a lot faster the football is more beautiful than it used to be you know in the other eras but at the same time you know I really just supported Italy I don't know any of the Italian players you know personally I don't care about any of them but I personally just didn't want Italy or England to win it they should try again next maybe next euros they might you know be successful that wow good luck to them wow so right now Italy is the champion of England everybody's happy about that European champion of Europe I beg your pardon I saw a map that was put out it says you know the map was predominantly coloured blue and it said this is the amount of people who wanted England to just lose and I think it's just you know sad to see how English fans reacted after the game and then I saw statistics about how how much you know domestic abuse they were in the US in the UK when you know English fans or English clubs lose and I'm like is this really true yeah and this is a fact that when I think England team loses you know the people the supporters begin to they get very violent so so so over time they've you know been on record as what is having one of the most violent and racist supporters for football and not just their national team including their club you know club football teams there's always been that it doesn't necessarily paint the whole picture of what English football is like there is also the you know decent and you know football loving and very very pure hearted football fans in England there's maybe probably even more but those very very dark stains here and there have not been successfully taken away and I don't understand how you can support Bukai Osaka and support you know Rashford and Sterling and those black players on days when they win the days when they you know get England through any game you support them and you praise them but immediately they make any mistake whatsoever they immediately turn to monkeys terrible terrible I mean there's a statement here from the FA spokesperson it says FA statement on discriminatory abuse the FA strongly condemns all forms of discrimination and is appalled by the online racism that has been aimed at some of our England players on social media we could not be clearer that anyone behind such disgust and behavior is not welcome on our team will do all we can to support the players affected or urging the toughest punishments for anyone responsible so really what impact would this make can they actually do anything substantial this is an abuse this is a systemic you know abuse that has been going on for a long time so what really can they do to stop this this really is not about you know a couple of fans this is not about 12 fans you know that might get lifetime bands from you know stadiums this is not about you know being able to you know find you know a hundred of them you know for racist you know remarks or for violent you know attacks after the after the games it's good it goes beyond that it really just tells you the kind of society that you know England you has and no matter how many fans you ban if you don't find ways to actually kick out racism taking a knee after the black lives matter protests you know which went around the world you know you still see people criticizing it but they did that you know to show some level of solidarity with with Africans and with their black players but it really hasn't changed much and so there has to be ways that England systematically needs to find a way to kick out racism the world not just England now the whole world needs to you know continue to ensure that racism is completely kicked out I don't know how successful we'll be in our lifetime but it would take you know more than just a few fines here and then you know and a few statements from the English FA there has to be a whole lot more none of those people that you're talking about is on the team so I'm not sure what they mean by you know you can't join the team none of them is on the team none of them will you ever be on that team they're really just supporters who of course express themselves in a very very disgusting way after they lose so I can imagine what it would have been like if they actually did win we would not hear the last of this because Morgan would have been all over the internet for the next couple of days talking about it but congratulations to Italy they played a very very good game they got back after you know being one go down two minutes into the game I think in the 67th minute they eventually scored a goal played it all the way to you know extra time and then you know one on penalties England lost three penalties from Sancho from what's his name now Rashford and from Bukayo Saka sadly but of course big one there so congratulations again to Italy the champions of Europe but next up is something that really shook most of Nigeria and it's about the death of one of very finest musicians sound told and there's been tributes pouring in you know from everywhere you know just sending condolences and well wishes to the family we got in the passing of our very own musician he had passed from a certain type of cancer one the news broke earlier that he had third cancer he didn't deny that he didn't confirm he just was silent about it we saw a video that he posted on father's day with his children singing playing the guitar they were all having fun and then we heard the news and he's now been buried in the US it's just so sad he I mean it was so young he was just 44 full of life you know it's it's just a lot you need to see the tributes has been pouring in I haven't saw a statement from one of the you know representatives of the US console you know sending condolences to sound told and his family all the big musicians you can think of in Nigeria Too Faced, Idibia, all the big names Richard, Mufedah Michio, Debo Macaroni, Femi Kuti you know so it's just it's something that just saddens a lot of people we can all agree on something that he did make his mark I mean you talk about how you compare music of before and music of now and you see so much different it seems the music of now gets you happy gets you moving makes you dads but when we talk about substances is a debate we keep having the substance or in the content of the music of the 1990s you know his first music was in 1999 that was Jabba Jantis you saw people trying to make a statement people trying to make a difference people trying to pass a message he was very he used his music for political activism and we saw it we saw it in the music videos he did we saw it in the content of his lyrics we saw it in the in the person that he in his persona who he represented as an artist and we're grateful to have had sound told tan and it's a shame that his past so soon so pretty um sound told tans death is um you know perfect you know time to once again remind us uh about um you know the fact that you yes it was a very sad day for me and you know I admit that I uh for a long time I haven't had any reasons to actually cry because anybody uh passed but yesterday I did cry mostly because you know it's a reminder that um we come to this earth with nothing we live with nothing um what's you know most important is the mark that we live in the time that we're here and what people have to say about you in the time that we're here the life that you live you know how people eulogize you after you pass and he is a perfect example of a person who nobody had anything bad to say about sounds to tan was everything to the nandia music industry in every single direction you can imagine it was a comedian it was an artist was a producer was an actor it was everything that you can imagine he was he was completely grounded I thought yesterday of how people would take it how would two phase take it because they were they were extremely close friends basket mouth ty mix um banky w a lot of these people who have been friends with him for a very very long time I couldn't imagine the pain that they were dealing with and and um I would always like to say okay let's focus on celebrating the life that he lived but you cannot take away the actual pain that this brings to the industry and this is for everybody in the whole industry not just in music in the movie in industry these are people who have been for everyone who has been there for the last 20 years and more he had a massive massive impact on the industry um he supported every single person there was never any time just look around social media yesterday there was nobody whatsoever that didn't feel the need to make a post within Nigeria abroad governors for the sessions wife of john yes something called him his cousin um and that is the impact that he had silently in on the industry it was a sad day and I said yesterday um what's what's called now that the showcase said oh you know a tree has fallen you know that was his way of expressing you know what had happened but it was a it is one of the saddest moments in I don't think I felt this bad about the death of a Nigerian artist since da green but this was one of the saddest moments in the Nigerian music industry and nothing nothing would ever replace um the impact that sound Sultan had not just in the music but with the personal relationships and the support that he gave to other artists the level of support that he was able to render many many many many people and everybody who met him said the same thing exactly and one thing about sound sultan just like two-faced he's a humble man I remember when I met him in 2016 when I was in radio in bilin city he he just you can just see that persona around him very very free very open he was very humble played with everyone you know you were here stories about people say oh this celebrity snubbed me I tried to take a picture with her she snubbed me sound sultan wasn't like that he was a complete opposite and no one had ever had anything negative to say about him and it's just a very it's a really great soul you know I think that that's that's how I would describe him well he was he was completely great beautiful soul you know that lived in that person called sound sultan lauri as people who know him personally will call him and so it does hurt it's a sad way to start up a monday morning but we of course had to quickly share about this so we wish his family well we hope that of course people can people can you know also get to you know look at some of the the way he lived his life and take examples from you know the life that he lived which was a very very beautiful life and you know don't cry he's gone and remember you know that as we come we also will go you know so make sure that you give the best to the you know the time that you're here on the journey that you're on really sad anyway quickly we also would celebrate with the tigers nindia's basketball team would defeat it the usa's dream team over the weekend also it was a shock victory i think it was that one came seven yeah that one came home yeah that's that's the one that we should have been talking about you know it's coming home it's coming home but i think it was a friendly game and we won that one ninety two eighty seven really really shocking i'm sure they didn't even expect that they would win not very many people follow nindian basketball it's not as popular as a as a super eagles and the football team but for those who got got to see this it was definitely something to celebrate over the weekend and it really also shows um yeah i would quickly throw this in it really also shows you the difference with managing a team outside nigeria and managing a team here you know being in control of the likes of sunday dairy and the other people here who of course are struggling athletics is struggling no shade football is struggling oh all the shade in the world no shade everything concerning nigerian sports industry is struggling to breathe but this was an international shocker i mean yes who saw this coming the literal dark horse well you know i'm sure i'm pretty of also sure that they believe in themselves well enough to be able to pull that off because they played that game you know in its entirety until eventually the you know final bell rang um while it's got to definitely talk about it so congratulations to them but once again shame on those who manage the sport in the country here the you know our local sport that we we cannot in any way i don't i don't know what we're going to do doing the olympics i've said it before i don't know what we're going to do in the olympics including those ones that have had their jerseys we just don't see the story about the jerseys and the equipment being at the port and they were asked to pay money you know and they kept saying no no this is for the olympics team and the post authority says not their business you know you should come and pay and collect your you know this eventually i think you arrived later probably hasn't even arrived till now there's a kind of lapses that we have in the country here that would we make it extremely difficult for any body any person about how talented you are or skilled you are to be successful in the nigerian sport doesn't it so congratulations to the nigerian usa-based basketball team the tigers and we hope that we you know you continue to make us proud all right let's take a break here and we'll join mr jundi kalawali in just a few seconds for off the press


Ukraine launched counter-offensive. The counter-offensive of Ukraine's armed forces has already begun and continues for several days. Intense fighting is going on along the entire border line. Mikhail Podoliak, advisor to the head of the president's office, said in an interview with the Italian Rai TV channel. For several days now, there has been a counter-offensive. An intense war is going on along 1,500 kilometers of the border. Actions have already begun, he said. Podoliak predicts that the counter-offensive of the armed forces of Ukraine may not be a single event, but rather a series of several events spread over time. According to him, the main goal of the counter-offensive is to neutralize the remnants of the Russians' morale and willpower. And this process has already begun, as Russian citizens are beginning to understand that they brought to power those who have created many problems. Podoliak also commented on the supply of Western weapons to Ukraine, stressing that the armed forces of Ukraine would not use them for attacks on Russian territory. Armament will be used exclusively for the de-occupation of the occupied territories of Ukraine. We don't want to strike at the territory of Russia. We will use the weapons that you gave us to destroy the positions of the Russian Federation in the territories occupied by Moscow, including the Donbas and Crimea. Podoliak explained. He added that Ukraine now has storm-shadow, long-range missiles, leopard tanks, anti-missile systems, which France and Italy provided us with. The F-16s will finally allow us to close the airspace. It's a paradox. If we had them a year ago, the war would have already ended, he stated.


Not a problem. If the target is big, start breaking it into smaller pieces. On screen is an enemy virus for an upcoming game, and it's got a lot going on, but like I said the trick is to break it down.  The problem most people have is when you get to the body. So how would you start to break a model like this down? Well the answer is you would start making seams. Because seams mark the edge of your square maps. In order to know where you need to draw your seams, I recommend just looking at your favorite manga and notice where they draw the dark lines. Ignore the outline, where do they draw the dark lines inside the body? Because that's probably where you are going to need to mark your seams. Usually the seams tend to be where you find folds in the clothing and where the skin bends between the joints. If your character is female and wearing something tight, the seams are pretty much where all the bikini lines are. Otherwise, other common areas are the valleys of the collarbone, the dip of the neck, crevices between the fingers and joints for the knuckles are all places that you would normally find a seam. If we look back at my character, you can see I've marked the seams around all the biggest folds and valleys of the skin. So after the seams have been marked, you'll find that everything has been separated into different chunks. From here, when you unwrap these chunks into UVs, you square them up one by one separately with the tools we've went over from the last tutorials. So don't overthink it. Square UV in complex models is really just the same as square UV in simple models. You just have to break it down into smaller parts with seams first. So as always, hope that helps. Hope you have a fantastic day and I'll see you around.


The President of the United States. Thank you very much. You know, thank you very much. And you know, I learned this in China, and it would be particularly appropriate right here. And that is to applaud you. It's great to be with the good guys. And it's a special pleasure to see friends like Lou Lairman, Jack Hume, Mark Holstman, Carol Hallett, all of you. And now my remarks are going to be brief because I'm eager to meet all of you personally, and I understand we're going to have a chance to do that. So just over a year ago was when Lou and Jack came over to the Oval Office and talked about creating a new organization that would get the word out on what conservatives stand for and what our agenda is, what we want for our country, and why we want it. And they felt that this would serve as an important adjunct to our efforts in the Congress, and it might also serve as an antidote to the efforts of our friends in the media who are I sometimes think in my rasher moments a little less than sympathetic to our point of view. But it's just over a year since that conversation, but already the group that came out of that effort, Citizens for America, has made an extraordinary contribution. You're getting the word out. Already you've organized in 230 congressional districts in 32 states. You have more than 4,000 active members working in the trenches. You're making a difference, and I'm very appreciative and impressed. Your hard work and commitment are unsurpassed. You know, I couldn't resist asking Lou something since he's made such a tremendous effort flying across the country, helping CFA grow by leaps and bounds. Lou, if CFA is growing that fast, aren't you afraid your organization might overheat? You know, shouldn't you put the brakes on now so you won't be destroyed by all that growth? As you've probably heard. I've been getting that kind of advice from some of the experts on the economy. I thought I'd pass it on to you knowing you might know just what to do with it. Yes, sir. I look at the liberal establishment in America today, and I have to think that they're not only out of touch with the mainstream, I think they've abandoned their own constituency. All they seem to stand for now are narrow appeals to interest groups. The gimmies and the get-mes are of the political scene. So much for a sense of national unity. So much for ask not what your country can do for you. So much for the general interest and the power of unifying ideas. Moderate, middle-of-the-road Democrats are refusing to go along. You might call them homeless by choice. I got in trouble for saying that once before. I wasn't saying it about them. But where does this leave advocates for conservative causes? With an historic opportunity to reach out and realign America's thinking. If we manage to do this, we'll create an historic policy shift in this country and it will likely endure for a very long time. We've got to get the word out. In the union halls and the fire stations, on the street corners and at the VFW halls, on the op-ed page at the local newspaper, we've got to get out there on radio and television and get the word out. I said yesterday in talking to some people that some of the things that we have accomplished here are the best-kept secrets in the history of Washington. They might be the only secrets. And I'm very good at the other kind. Tell them what we stand for. Tell them we know as they do that the great contention between the free world and the totalitarians is the preeminent struggle of our time. For too long the enemies of our way of life have been permitted almost by default to dominate the struggle of ideas and never again. Never again must the millions of persecuted souls who yearn for freedom be without champions for their cause in the highest councils of this great nation. Explain again to the American people that we're trying to discourage aggression and assure the peace by staying strong and by staying free. Explain that we believe in social justice and that the way to achieve it is through free enterprise. Explain again and keep driving at home that the free market is the path to production, expansion, wealth, a bigger pie, and a bigger peace for everyone. So get the message out on crime. That, of course, is that defendants have rights, but so, dear Lord, do the victims. It's time that maybe the taxpayers were able to take a walk in the park after 8 p.m. and know they'd get home. Get it across again and again that we're not afraid to defend the moral and spiritual values that form the character of this great and good nation. That, yes, we're for prayer and against abortion. And we're not ashamed and we'll tell you why. We've got to get the agenda across again and again from enterprise zones to a balanced budget amendment to a more simple and fair tax system with new incentives for growth and two prayer in the schools. And we've got to get the word out that conservative ideas are the ideas of the future. We must be learned. We must know our facts and the stance we must bring to our work is not anger but patience and conciliation and endless reason. We must make it clear in all we do that we're motivated by love of country and animated by a resolve to protect it. All of us here, just a few hundred people in a room, can change our country forever. It's wonderful to have the chance we have, wonderful to serve as a patriot in demanding times. We're very lucky. Well, we're more than lucky. We're blessed and we can win. I believe deeply that history is on our side and that the momentum is with us and that we can trust the people of our country to listen and to make the right choices. The final thing, the liberals always steal the good poems. I mean to steal one back. It's Tennyson and it sums up everything I feel as I stand here before you. Come, my friends, it is not too late to seek a newer world. Well, thank you all of you and may God bless you with not only happiness but endless reason and endless energy and now I understand there's a mark for me to stand on and I'm going to get a chance to say hello to you. Congratulations.


It's been said that carving out when you're doing a low-carb diet, i.e. Eating like spiking your blood sugar with carbohydrates is a good thing. Is it? Let's talk about it Hey there, NJRoot22.com here. I'm testing out my mic because Swear to God, I have no luck with my technology here. Anyway, I need to get some better equipment Like a road mic. Anybody wants to like send a PayPal donation NJRoot22.com at gmail.com. Please help me out We're on a limited budget here. Anyway Back when I started low-carb Long long time ago over ten years ago I Read many articles that said that oh, yeah every week or two You should spike your blood sugar by carving out, you know eating junk food bread whatever it may be to And and the whole concept was to Shock your system and it would reset and you didn't do even better Now over the decade that I've been low-carb, you know with my hits and misses Uh, I have to tell you I don't believe that at all I don't think it's good to shock your system into having carbs Or at least spiking your blood sugar to the point where you get out of ketosis or Every time I've done it let me let me just put it this way every time I've done it Let's say where I cheated. I remember like early in my Low-carb days, maybe three years in I had some white bread Italian hero, you know with those fluffy You know hero roles.  I was like in bliss What happened for the next three days? I was in pain.  I've had uh, I forget a couple other other things that I've cheated on um Especially when the family brings in these god damn Tasty-looking Italian dishes and I don't go for the like bready things. I've never had a slice of pizza I peel the cheese off the pizza sometimes and I get a little wheat on there by mistake And I can tell like I can tell when I've eaten it. I don't even do that anymore, but I don't think carving. I mean like I think a lot of these other people you said Oh carving out carving out and spiking your blood sugar and then going back down again is Quote unquote good for your body and it reminds your body that you had carbs You know, I honestly don't don't agree with that. I don't care what they say or what the reports or studies have said It Let me give you an example one time I had like a week where I like this was early in my low carb days where I was making great progress And I had a week or a few days three or four days where I I carved out and I was like screw this It took me months Literally months to get back on track again It's such a roadblock to do something like that I wouldn't recommend anybody say oh, I can have a cheat once a week You're basically just I truly think you're just setting yourself back And and and slowing your progress tremendously. You're like you're like undoing the work that you've done So I highly recommend that I have to say one thing I I had a video a few weeks ago about alcohol and I don't think alcohol makes a difference And that still is open for interpretation Especially depending on the alcohol if you're drinking beer forget about it A watered down wine like I drink It's it's Like two carbs An hour or every two hours. So that that's so insignificant on our blood sugar.  What do you think if you like this video? Please hit the like The bell or whatever the subscribe ding ding ding whatever And please help me get to a thousand subscribers. I'm at like 50 subscribers right now. So have a good day


Narcissist chooses you because of what you can give him. Narcissists are looking for sex, supply, sadistic and narcissistic, safety, object constancy, your constant presence, even addiction I would say, to the narcissist. So safety and services. If you give the narcissist two of these four, sex and services, services and safety, any two, you qualify. You could be tall or short, dark or blonde.  You can even be another narcissist. It's meaningless.   Like I don't care who owns my internet service provider. I just wanted an internet flowing through my computer. So it's a highly performative and or performance oriented, goal-oriented approach. But the victims feel so commoditized. They feel so marginalized. They feel that they've been so interchangeable and dispensable that they react with a narcissistic defense. They say, it's not true. I was very special to him. I was empathic. I was nice. I was kind. I loved him. I saw through. I saw his inner child. They try to make sense of what has happened to them and what has happened to them is simply they happen to be there. Period. And they happen to be givers rather than takers. So maybe that's the only qualification. You have to be a giver or a people pleaser. Let's talk about combating the narcissist. Now, I don't know if you have seen this, but I've noticed a lot of stuff online. How to manipulate the narcissist, how to fight the narcissist. And I'm wondering about, okay, well, is this a good idea, folks? I mean, what are we doing here? How to attack the narcissist? How to defeat the narcissist? How to torture. How to torture. I saw something that. Okay, what's your perspective? Nonstatists are very gullible and extremely prone to manipulate. I mean, to being manipulative. They're very manipulable. Yeah. They don't have actual defenses against manipulation and wars. Because they consider themselves to be so superior, so Godlike, so perfect. So no one can pull the wool over a narcissist's eyes, because no one is intellectually superior to the narcissist. The narcissist is world savvy, is worldly, is experienced, is super knowledgeable. So the grandiosity of the narcissist is a cognitive distortion. Cognitive distortion in clinical terms means that you misperceive reality, simply. When someone misperceives reality, it's an easy target, an easy victim and an easy mark for con artists. And so narcissists very often fall for swindlers and con artists, and they're easy marks. Well, they would fall for flattery and, for example, for example, yeah, love bombing. Flattery, get rich quick schemes. Yeah, they're easy marks. So actually, most of these videos are correct. I've watched, of course, my share. They're pretty accurate. It's true that you can do this to the narcissist. If you take into account that the mental age, emotional age of a narcissist is probably anywhere between two and four years old. I'm not sure it's such a major accomplishment to con the narcissist or manipulate your nose. I would be ashamed of doing this. You're manipulating or conning or abusing a child in effect. No, it's a very bad child. It's a nefarious child.  You're taking advantage of this child's naivety, naivete, this child's gallability, this child's lack of experience with emotions. Narcissists can be very experienced in business and politics and what have you. But when it comes to emotional processing, and so on and so forth, they're children.  And if you're proud of it, good for you. Yeah. Well, first of all, you have to identify someone as the narcissist. Once you've done that, then flattery, love bombing, that type of thing. But what would that give you? What would you achieve by doing that? I mean, promotion, perhaps in a you can do you can make the narcissist do anything you want. There are two vectors of attack. If I boil all these two million videos, there are two, two vectors of attack. One is grandiosity. And the other is paranoid ideation, paranoia. So you can use these two vectors to manipulate the narcissist to make the narcissist do. And I mean literally anything you want. Literally anything you want. So if you cater to the narcissist grandiosity, flattery is one example, but it doesn't have to be flattery. For example, you can pretend to be helpless. And by pretending to be helpless, you aggrandize the narcissist. You are my only hope. Only you can save me. Only you have the solution. You're amazing. I don't trust anyone else. It's a way to cater to the narcissist grandiosity, which does not involve flattery in effect. That's a co dependence do this. Co dependence often use this form of emotional black man.   This kind of thing. So this is a vector of attack via grandiosity. And another vector is paranoia to create an ambience or an environment that would trigger the narcissist paranoid ideation fear and would cause the narcissist to behave in ways which would be self defeating or self destructive either. If you want to punish the narcissist, for example, these are the two vectors and a combination of these two is even even more like a combination of these two is known as paranoid paranoia or paranoid personality disorder. It's when your grandiosity combines with your paranoia. And you say to yourself, I'm such an important person. I know so many secrets. I'm so unique. My skills are unparalleled. So this means that people are conspiring against me. This means that I'm at the focus in the center of my line attention. And so the paranoia feeds the grandiosity and the grandiosity feeds the paranoia and you can construct a perfect scenario, which would push the narcissist to behave in ways which are which conform to your goal or your and con artists do this and you know, but in intimate relationships, it's important to understand that narcissism is infectious. Literally infectious. It's you get infected by a process called and training when the narcissist verbally abuses you or verbally repeats the same message over and over again and ultimately ultimately synchronizes your mind with his mind and that is not a metaphor. The brain wave synchronize. It's been discovered recently in in neuroscientific studies.  It creates a fantasy which is irresistible because it might cater to some of your needs or some of your fears and so on. So he takes over a hijack so might it takes over your mind and your only defense at some point is to out narcissize the narcissist. To simply become a bigger narcissist or even a psychopath. So we say in clinical terms that exposure to narcissists, pathological narcissism triggers narcissistic defenses and because narcissists traumatize a form of trauma known as complex trauma, trauma that is kind of regular and low key but ambient all the time there. So because narcissists do this all the time you begin to develop a post-traumatic condition and as we know by now post-traumatic condition complex post-traumatic conditions are indistinguishable from personality disorder. That's why someone like Judith Herman. Judith Herman is the mother of the field of complex trauma. She coined the phrase CPTSD. Judith Herman advocates to merge complex trauma with at least borderline personality disorder.  After that you become narcissistic you push back.  Narciss is more intelligent so there's a kind of you know you become more narcissistic going on yeah and finally you become psychopathic you become defined you become no reckless you become you engage in dangerous behaviors you lose sight of of laws and regulations and rules and inhibitions so the narcissist pushes you from borderline to narcissist to psychopath and after the narcissist exits your life you remain stuck with this for a while luckily it's a transitory phase but for a while you are indistinguishable from from a narcissist or a psychopath or borderline so that's why I say that narcissism is contagious. When you're thinking about healing from the trauma and you mentioned that you used the word trauma there what steps would you recommend to start that process are you talking and immediately booking an appointment with a therapist what kind of self-work can you do?


Why do you think you're over amped just a matter of first actual start for a new team? Yeah I mean and uh I mean when it comes to the first inning that's kind of my thing too I got to get settled in and get going I was able to do that and then we were able to keep adding runs and playing good defense and you know I'm just uh you know happy to be here to contribute. Erin Boone talked about you being a guy that uses your fastball a lot and said elevating it in the zone tonight seemed to work well for you did you see that as a key?  This team badly needed a win tonight after Boston did you put any kind of pressure on yourself as a veteran guy that you need to come up with a big outing? Uh you know I would say no but uh when you're playing for the Yankees it's a little different um you know you came into this I came into this start uh knowing that I needed to do my job and I needed to do it at a high level and uh I came out and uh had a good start and you know the offense gave me some runs defense did a great job and you know we're here and we won and hopefully I can keep doing that and we can make a run at it.  Um you know I want to say yes uh when I was with St. Louis I had a good run of success at that um so hopefully I can I can have the same thing here uh whenever they need me and whenever it's my time to go pitch I go get outs and help the team that's all I'm about um when it's all said and done if you're on a winning team and you do what you have to do to help team win at the end of the day then you're doing your job and that's that's who I am. And if the team got into hotels like five uh what time did you get to sleep? I was fast asleep. Did you watch it? Yeah I did I did so I went to bed knowing that uh I need to show up today.
