all right guys welcome back to another Vlog I hope you enjoyed yesterday's video how to be like Christian Guzman uh took me quite a while to make and I sure there was no sorts of videos like that out there for Christian Guzman I mean you get videos like how to Vlog like Casey neistat or uh how to Vlog like play the games films um all just like my favorite vloggers and YouTubers but uh no one's ever done anything on Christian so I thought that would have been interesting so what you did Miss from yesterday is
as you can see I have my Canon g7x my GoPro and that's pretty much it and now pretty much be it for another week and a half yeah I've done another week and a half so um I sold my Canon 80d yesterday um as well as the lens so um I bought the Sony A7 Mark II with the 28 to 70 millimeter kit lens included so basically with that I can hold it up to my face you can't see yourself it doesn't have a flip out screen like Canon 80d but it has very good autofocus
so I'll be able to Vlog with that but what just came in the mail is the knf concepts um adapter so basically I have there's football trials in two weeks for my team that I work for and I have I'm gonna have to document all that do a documentary on the day of the trials um some of the coach training and take lots of photos so I'm gonna need a telephoto lens so my friend my best friend Edward he is he has like a 400 pound telephoto lens really really nice so now I can attach
his Canon lens to my what will be my Sony camera some very exciting stuff all right guys so we're gonna jump into I think we're gonna do a com yeah we're gonna go for a commentary so I'll leave you guys with my workout at shoulders and arms commentary in three two welcome to this commentary guys so basically what I want to talk about in this commentary is the ego now you'll see a bit later on in the video I'm actually reading a book called The Power of eagle or when I go to the bookstore that's
that's sort of the one that I picked up and it caught my attention the most now I've heard of this book but uh getting the chance to read today was really really a good experience for me now what they talk about in that book is the ego um you know the more negative side of the human psyche so things like hatred anger um uh over attachment to things uh you know uh jealousy like these are all bad human traits and they're all sort of man you know we we create them in our own reality and
uh you know this voiceover might I want you to really listen to what I'm saying in this voiceover and it might take you a little while to understand because it took me forever to understand this but um the main thing I want to talk about exactly uh in terms of the ego is in that book ego is the enemy they talked about how saying you're gonna do something can actually be a disadvantage now that goes against a lot of what I've read in the past what I've read in the past is you know say you
do something because then you have more accountability for example if you guys want to get into the gym I do seriously recommend you tell your parents you tell your friends get the word out there so that you're more accountable so that you're less likely to quit because you know you're gonna have all these people to you know say hey I quit I I didn't stick to my word but in this book they basically talked about how saying you're gonna do something has actually been proven to give you the same feeling as though you're doing something
now you know I realized that a lot of the time I do talk and I and I'd like to believe that I do do as well so I'll say a lot of things and I'll do a lot of things but you know I've always believed it to be an advantage that I'm saying hey I'm gonna do this because in my mind it fixes it as you know like there's no question in my mind once I say it but this this book really made me think and I see a lot of people out there who they
say hmm yeah I just worked so hard today I'm hustling I'm grinding and that gives them the feeling that they're actually doing it and 90 98 of the time they're just [ __ ] around you know there's a lot of people out there who are like I'm going to do this I'm going to the do that they always talk about their project you know the business that they're gonna start honestly you can't wait to see the business that I start next month it's going to be incredible that's the sort of stuff people say you know
I expect this much revenue within the first quarter that's what people are gonna that's what people say and those same people who spend four hours talking about it might only spend two hours actually working on it so what I want to leave you guys here with is you know there are certain times where it's good to talk about it it's good to keep you accountable but don't mistake talking with doing right and you know I know what this feels like there are times in my life where you know I'll say yeah I'm working incredibly hard
and I'm not and probably recently I've realized that because recently I have just been incredibly busy and there are also times in my life like recently where you know I'll talk about how great everything's going and that'll give me the feeling that everything's going great when right now I'm at this really weird place in my life where there's a lot of different things conflicting I'm going into new territory New Paths in life lots of new projects that are a lot of work that are kind of scary but are also exciting so what I'm trying to
say here and I'll leave you with this is don't talk about it do it okay don't mistake the feeling of talking with the feeling of doing because the feeling of doing is a much much better feeling you actually left something with the end of it rather than you know at the end of it all if you just keep talking and nothing keeps happening then you know people one of the things that I think is more important in life is your word is your bond and when you say something you should mean it and you should
follow through and if you keep talking and if you keep allocating more and more time to talking and not enough time to doing then you know people are gonna find out you're full of [ __ ] all right guys so one of the good habits that I've built up over the last year is going to a bookstore on Sunday with no exceptions so I go to the bookstore I pick out three or four books and I just read I just sit there I read for anywhere from 60 to 90 minutes I get inspired lots of
ideas run through my mind I usually pick books in different niches so maybe psychology then something spiritual someone really had to do with business or finance and then something to do with self-help maybe a habit building or something like that and it really just does inspire me and um broadens my horizons really so that's all it's been or in the past year that's been a really good habit of mine obviously I've been away so I haven't been able to do that but that's what we're gonna go ahead and do right now all right guys so
I got a lot of messages from people saying that they really like the Cinematic scenes the cutscenes before I go into a place just to you know show you what the environment is like don't you worry I can still do this with a Canon g7x kind of a genius I'm kind of brilliant editing Master let's just say guys um I can do it and then you're only gonna have to wait like a week and a half until the Sony A7 Mark II comes and when that comes the footage is even going to be better than
the Canon 80d because it's just a much better video a much better camera for videography so we're gonna uh legs and bigger shoulders not Dumber hard turn cold when it's hot in the summer scene Seven I've been Daydream driving in a Hummer doing Hunters out the window to my Campos have been handles even Endo like we indoors but there's no doors on my new pores I guess I'll just be tweaking though and dream the unthinkable and praying going back home now one thing that I always lead time for in the day is checking out the
community on YouTube now YouTube has to be my favorite platform just because of the amount of the space for the creativity and the content output um there's a lot that I can do with my videos and there's a lot of my personality that I can share but there's a lot of Personality that I can see in other people's videos so I leave at least anywhere from 30 to 45 minutes daily just to engage with the community so I'll look up things like Fitness Vlog training Vlog um I'll click on people's videos see what's happening see
what they're doing and then I'll leave them a comment if there's anything I enjoyed or anything that intrigued me um if it was a mediocre video then I'll move on like just being honest you know this is just again some inspiration just to engage with other people within the community um I mean the biggest the best way to get out there and get your name out there is to engage with people and you know just to spread your message and see what other people are saying do you know how many strings I pulled to put
this thing in motion you're gonna get in the audience like you promised and then so guys watching my favorite as well as only show that I watch suits if you guys haven't seen season six it's just incredible watching that um just finished up all my editing all my work for today and this is the last clip that I have to add to the video after that I'm going for a walk it'll be around midnight I'm gonna go for a walk for like an hour or so if you guys have ever been to London um I'm
not sure how you guys feel about it I sort of got it while I was in New York um but I didn't really get the opportunity to explore in London like I just walked for half an hour an hour especially at night I find around my area and I'm just so inspired you just see so much life and so much opportunity in this place and uh that's why I like to go on walks um they're usually they're like there are times in my life for example I I can look back in May and in June
where it was just go go go like you know work don't think um and then right now I'm at a place where you know I'm taking walks I'm doing a lot of meditation a lot of reading uh spending a lot of time in bookstores and really just thinking about where I'm at and where I'm going so you know it's important to have those different phases in your life and sort of also lay between the two so as I hope you've enjoyed this video if you have please leave it a like it takes me forever to
make these and gives you more of it to keep doing daily uploads so we'll cue the outro in three two foreign [Music]
