#928 Very busy Let me bore you to sleep (Jason Newland) (23rd November 2022)

Hello and welcome to jasonnewland.com, my name's Jason and this is deep s... no, what is it? Oh yeah, this is... I forget what I'm doing. This is let me bore you to sleep. Please only listen when you can safely close your eyes.

Oh man, I've been busy. I'm so busy. I've also spent half the day on the toilet.

Oh brilliant, it's going to be another podcast about his bum. No, I'm not going to talk about that. I'm just saying that's a block a little bit blocked up as well.

Um, we'll blow your nose then. No, what it is is I've decided to stop taking my pain medication. I'm on cocodamol for my lower back and I just don't like the way it makes me feel.

Like in my head that is, my brain. So I've just stopped taking it and it will be not always, but sometimes when I stopped, I stopped taking it before and my stomach reacts to it or reacts to not having it. And also get a little bit of withdrawal symptoms with a cold like, because it's a, it's a barbiturate isn't it? Or a uh, heroin kind of thing.

What do they call that? So yeah, it's like a high, not high, but quite a high level cocodamol. Not the one you can't get them in the shops, but they're not the like proper strong ones that people buy on the black market. Someone offered me one of them once because I'd run out of mine and the tablet was tiny because the tablets I take are, they're like, uh, I think 80% paracetamol.

This one was just 100% cocodamol or you know, whatever the thing is. And it was not very big. And I thought, no, you're right.

It turns people into zombies. If they take it, if they take too many of them, it's just not what I'm looking for. Really not.

So I stopped taking them. I didn't take them when I went away for three weeks when I was away in August. So I just stopped taking them.

I didn't, well, I had a chest infection, but I can't blame that on that. That makes sense with it. But other than that, yeah, I wasn't doing very well for a few weeks, which probably explains it partly.

So, you know, I'm usually about a week or so and I'm back to normal. It's just physically it has an effect. So I'm trying to, I'm also, I think I'm going to cut down on my Coke intake because I started to increase it recently.

Normally, I mean, more recently it's been like one can a day, maybe two, but the last week or so it's been probably three cans a day. So maybe four at the weekend and that was too much. My body can't take it anymore.

It's, I guess it's too much sugar. I don't know. I'm not sure.

But that's kind of what I'm kind of trying to do. I've got a lot on, but before I do that, I want to read a message out. This is a new customer message from my website, Debbie.

I won't say the name or anything. I'll just say the name, but I mean, I won't say a surname. I'm going to read it out.

I'm not going to give anything out that's, you know, who the man is. Okay. Thank you so much, Jason.

I've been listening to your hypnosis podcasts on and off, almost every day for the past two years due to a serious illness that I'm recovering from. It's helped me so much. Sometimes I get scared that you're going to stop making recordings.

And do you think you might be able to make a recording about something like that? Again, thank you so much for being a significant part of my healing process. Well, thank you, Debbie. Thanks for that.

I should give you like a reply for that, but hopefully you're listening to this. I don't know about that. I don't know how, what kind of recording that would be.

I might, if someone's worried about me not, all I can say, put your mind at rest, is that I've got no intention of ever stopping doing this. Really, there might come a time when I'm not as frequent as I am these days, because I do tend to make quite a lot of recordings. I go through periods where I might do three in a week.

Sometimes I go, I rarely go too long without doing any, but sometimes I will go a couple of weeks without making one recording. And then I'll do five in a day, and then four in a day, and then three in a day. And so I try and be consistent.

And sometimes I don't make recordings because, yeah, the reasons I don't make recordings would be I don't feel well enough. Maybe it's if I've got a cough or a chest infection or just feel a bit, not feeling particularly great. And talking is perhaps a little bit strenuous on me.

I won't, because it's a verbal thing, I won't make any recordings in those situations. So, you know, if I've got a cold, I don't make recordings generally. If I'm not feeling very well for other reasons, you know, having a bad stomach didn't affect me as far as making recordings.

If anything, it made me a bit more focused because, first of all, I couldn't leave my home for the last two days. And I decided to make use of that time rather than, not that I go out much, but I thought I'll do something. And I kind of started some new, like a new routine, some new routines that are, I suppose, forcing me a little bit into, not in a bad way, but forcing me to do stuff that perhaps I would prefer to put off.

So, I'll talk about that in a minute. The other thing is, if I'm not, if I said this the other day, I think, if I'm not in a particularly good mood and, you know, I do, I'm honest about it, I have a mood disorder. I've got bipolar, I've got a mood disorder.

And sometimes it's not, it's not even for a reason, you know, I'll have a, I have a little tantrum, a little internal tantrum. I usually keep them internal for no reason. Like what happened last night, I'll be honest, I felt fine, went to the petrol station and I really lost my rag internally.

I didn't even know I was in a bad mood. I didn't, I'd been in all day on my own, everything, you know, I'd made some recordings, everything was quite a good day really. But I didn't, I suppose, a bad stomach and that, maybe that had annoyed me.

But yeah, it's, it's not always as obvious as this happened, therefore, this is why I'm feeling this way. It's a weird one. And it's something that I've dealt with my whole life, since childhood.

This, in some ways, I prefer when there's a reason for it, you know. If someone's been rude to me, then okay, I've got a reason to have these feelings. But when I just have the feelings, and there's been no external stimuli, it's probably triggered inside internally, I don't know, but it's a weird one.

It's very strange. And when I'm like that, sometimes I can't make recordings. And, or sometimes I do make recordings, and I can't upload them, because they're just vicious.

I've done two this week that were vicious that I didn't upload. One was a stop smoking one, and one was a let me boy to sleep. And I was more renting, I was like, this isn't what this is about.

I don't want to, like that, you know. We're all human, and we've all got our issues. I got a little bit of a cough as well.

I just coughed then, but I let it out. I don't even bother trying to put it on pause anymore. I listen to the whole recording now.

That's another new thing I'm doing, is I'm using the Adobe Audition software, which is the editing software for audio. And I've been using it for, I figured out how to use it yesterday. The basic, just the basic stuff.

I'm going to start watching more videos and learn how to do some more intricate stuff. But right now, I've learned, I've been learning as I'm going along, and so everything's different, but it takes longer. But there's something about that investment in time, putting, you know, being a bit more serious in the outcome of the recording, you know, what it sounds like.

Because, you know, in the past, I've been very cavalier, and I'm like, well, that'll do. Just upload it. The content's all right.

I know what the content is, because I'm the one that spoke it. But I don't want, you know, I've tried to get good enough equipment so that there's not lots of really weird sounds that sometimes I would get from the lapel microphones, or from the phone, or I don't know, some of the cheaper microphones, there'd be sounds I'd have to edit out. I don't get much of that now.

But at the same time, I mean, this time of night, it's 11.35pm, Tuesday, the 22nd of November. So there's not any background sound really at all. Not outside, it's not windy.

There's no one with a television on downstairs. There's no doors being slammed at the moment, hopefully. I mean, it might be later, you know, but generally, this is a fairly quiet time.

Once it gets to sort of 11am until early hours, you know, six o'clock or whatever. So there's less editing to do, but I do, because I'm trying to take the editing a bit more seriously. I want to, I want to be better at it.

I want to learn to do it properly. So because the better I get at it, the quicker I'll get it. So although it's taking me longer now than it previously did to using the iPad.

It will be it Yeah, it's a learning curve. But it should be fairly easy. You know, I'll have pre settings and everything.

So eventually when I learn how to do all that stuff. So be quite a fairly simple process. Once I learn how to do things, I want you to learn.

It's easy, isn't it? Kind of, I suppose. I'm sure people are using Adobe editing software for 10, 15, 20 years. It's, you know, or maybe a couple of years.

It's easy peasy lemon squeezy for them. For me, I suppose the only advantage I've got is I have used audio software editing software before. Just not that one.

So there are a few similarities. So yeah, I'm not a complete novice to what I've been doing this for 17 years. So I love to say that, you know.

So yeah, I remember when he used to be 15 years old gun about 50. Then once you got to 17 years, what are you going to be like when he gets to 20? 20 years 2026 20 years of nonsense doing this, making these podcasts, while making recordings. Anyway, what I've started to do, I'll break it up.

This is a bit boring. And I realize it's I'm talking about the production again. And I don't want all these podcasts, every episode to be talking about production.

This is what's going on. So this is what's one doing and I won't be boring. I mean, it's supposed to be boring.

But it's not a lot going on in my life. And I had a friend. I got a friend who's going through some problems, but can't talk about that because that's personal to her.

And so other than that, it's not really a lot going on here. I keep dreaming about Thailand. You know, I do keep keep dreaming about it.

Keep dreaming about going back. So if I do go back on this, if I can ever afford to, I want to go back healthy and fit. You know, I don't want to be sitting in a hotel, laying down the hotel bed of a chest infection like last time.

No, I want to I want to be well. So what's my point? There's no point. Oh, yeah.

So I've now now that I'm using now I'm using the software. I've also so basically what I do now is broken into two. I saw my two I make the recording using the recording studio.

I save my disk, I take the disk out, I go over to the laptop, plug the disk, the disk goes directly into the laptop. No adapter needed. It's actually got a slot, which is good.

And then I go and find that file, open it with Adobe or audio. What's it called? Yeah, anyway, the audio software editing. It's not all I keep saying audible, but that's the talking books, isn't it? So I open it with them.

Audio, audio, audible, audible, audio app, audio mode, something like that. Open up with that. And then start editing it.

It takes a lot longer than it did do it on the iPad. Just I was always on the iPad when it comes to all editing. So that's it takes longer, but the end result should be better.

Because I'm not using because before I was uploading to a website called orthonic. Now I'm not doing that I'm doing it myself. So you know, it's, it's gonna take me a while before I get the hang of it properly.

But it's basically part of the reason why I went over to their laptop and using their software is because I did an orthonic recording, the whisper recordings don't come out very well on orthonic. And when you consider that, well, on a good week, that's what 40% of my recordings are whisper ones. Maybe you're 30%, maybe 50%.

So I try and make a try and do a whisper one every day if I can. So I learned I'm saying so a lot. So so so so so so so.

Right, I don't need to say anymore for a while. So I think I a new thing as well, I've been doing is I seem to have three recordings I want to do every day. Deep sleep, whisper hypnosis, relax and sleep hypnosis daily.

And let me put you to sleep. I want to do one of those each day of the week. So three a day, which is quite a lot of work.

The reason being, let me put you to sleep. This is I guess this is my favorite child. You know, if you think of the podcast as being children, this is my favorite child.

And all these three out of these three, the deep sleep whisper one is the most popular on its own, you know, it's for actually for its own, I reached over a million downloads on that podcast, half a million on the let me put you to sleep. And the relax and sleep hypnosis daily, I think there's about 1010 downloads. There's not I don't know how many there is.

How many is a okay half a million 521,000. Now, I've got a soft spot for this one, because it started off relax and sleep hypnosis weekly. Or was it sleep hypnosis weekly, something like that.

And then I changed it to relax and sleep hypnosis weekly. And then change it again to relax and sleep hypnosis daily. Now, I get about 20,000 downloads a week, a week a month rather, on this one.

So you know, it has its good days and it has its average days. So today so far 669 downloads. But I remember when I had nothing, you know, it's a little baby.

I was a little baby. That sounds a bit strange, but it was my little baby. And it, it was just there.

uploaded it, I had what did I have seven recordings from like years ago, seven recordings. And I think there was seven, I might be wrong. But I can tell you the exact date.

30th of December 2016. Now, I uploaded this in I think November 2018. So it was an old recording.

But I had something like seven. So I put them onto the podcast, and just left it. And then I started Let Me Boy To Sleep.

And I started some of the others. I just ignored it. Absolutely ignored it.

I didn't. I didn't make any new ones. I had no intention of making new ones because I was really focused more on the Let Me Boy To Sleep to be honest.

That was a one that I enjoyed doing. And a couple of other ones that I was focusing on. And then my stats started going up.

And I was looking at the main podcasts and I couldn't see why why they were higher. Because I was looking at like four podcasts and they were just like normal, normal sort of amount for the day. I couldn't figure it out.

So I went into this one, just once, okay, about once a month, I'll check all of them just to go through. It's once a day actually, but I'll pretend it's once a month. And this one was growing.

Not huge amounts, but like 20, 30, 40 downloads a day. And I was, oh, okay. That's interesting.

And at the very same time, Deep Sleep Whisper Hypnosis was doing the same thing. And that's it again. I think I had, I think I had about seven.

Maybe I had more on this one. But I had about seven of each. Let's just check.

Seven, February 2017. 20. That's the wrong one.

20. For some reason, put 20 in it messes the stats up. It struggles to find it.

21 August. All right. Okay.

So 2000. Okay. Yeah.

Okay. So that was 2019. 21 was August 2019.

So maybe I had 10 and seven of the Deep Sleep Whisper. And I hadn't touched them, hadn't looked at them. And then after I noticed that they started to get graining, gaining traction, and people were listening to them for no reason.

Well, not no reason, but I hadn't been making any new ones. I remember talking about it at the time. And I left it till about 2019.

So I left it till 18, probably six months. I was, and I left it another three months watching. And they were growing.

And they weren't growing like huge amounts, but they were still, I was still getting like a nice number for considering I wasn't doing anything to get them. It was just old recordings. Same happened on my Stop Smoking podcast as well.

That surprised me. I didn't read it. I didn't.

I had some old recordings from years ago. I just put it on there. And I literally didn't.

I didn't really bother looking at anything. And in turn, I'd had like 7000 downloads on one of the recordings and it's weird. But anyway, so after that, I decided, well, if it keeps growing, if both those websites, both those podcasts keep growing, I'll start to make some new ones.

But I didn't want to. I really didn't want to. But I decided that, well, it'd be silly to ignore that, you know, this is a sign.

If this is, these podcasts have an audience, then it'd be silly not to at least try and see if I could make something of them. And then the Deep Sleep Whisper ends up being among my most popular podcasts. It's not like on a, okay, outside of the big four, or the big four, the big three, this is my most popular.

It gets, on a good day, it gets like half the amount that the more popular ones get in a day. So for example, the Hypnosis Sleeping Deeply, today I've had 3,746 downloads. But on Deep Sleep Whisper, I've had 1,463.

So, you know, and on the Hypnosis for Stress Anxiety, Stress and Anxiety, 1,590. So it's blimey. Wow.

I don't know. It keeps changing. It keeps moving around.

It's weird because I got to have 1,590 on the Hypnosis for Stress Anxiety, but I've had 93,000 downloads in the last month on there. And today's been a busy day. Yeah, last week I had 4,803 downloads in one day.

I can't figure it all out. But yeah, anyway, so I gave the focus, so I'm trying to do three recordings a day. So anyway, what I did was I started making new recordings for the Deep Sleep Whisper and new recordings for the Relaxed Sleep Hypnosis Daily.

And although the Relaxed Sleep Hypnosis Daily is not as popular as the Deep Sleep Whisper, it still it stands on its own, if you know what I mean. It's a force of its own. It's got its own audience and fan base, maybe.

I don't know if that's the right word. But it's, you know, and I've made 180, no, that's not right, 140, no, 184 recordings for the Relaxed Sleep Hypnosis Daily. And the Deep Sleep one, I just did number 470 today.

Amazing. It's just like, wow. But then yesterday, this recording I'm about to release will be number 928 when I've finished it, this one now.

It's ridiculous. Yeah, it's ridiculous. Absolutely ridiculous.

But then the Stress and Pain Relief Podcast, I've done 46 of those. But that gets hardly any, like, very few downloads on its own. But, you know, it'll grow, it'll grow with time.

It gets, it gets listeners on the other podcasts when I share it. So, I'll try and do three recordings. Once I've edited it, I'll save the, the originally edited recording onto the desktop of the laptop.

Then I upload it to the different podcasts that it needs to go to. Then I come over to the iPad. And I also upload it to iTunes, no, iTunes to the iCloud.

Then I come to the iPad. And then I make versions with music on the iPad with the editor. And then I upload them after that onto the podcasts.

And then, not necessarily in this order, but the next step, go back to the laptop, correct the titles, and either release them now, or set them to be scheduled for release later on in the day. So I try and I've tested out and releasing all at one time doesn't work. You know, it's better to release them every hour, rather than like four recordings all at one time.

Not sure why, but that seems to be the way. And then the next thing that's done, next thing is to sit down and have a rest. Then the next thing is to turn it into a video.

So what I do is, I use this program. It's a website, I forget what it's called. Upload, I have to pay for this.

Everything has to be paid for. Nothing, I don't do any of the free stuff because they just don't offer anything and offer what I need with the free stuff. So even Canva, I started using, I pay for that.

It's not a lot, but it's still, I used to always use it for free, but these things are easier if you pay. Even if it's not a lot, you get access to, it kind of, they block stuff, you know. And because I need unlimited, whatever I do, needs to be unlimited.

I need to have unlimited resources. So I can make these videos online. I upload the audio to their server, and they put that, and that's the audio for the video.

And then add music, which, and all of this stuff on this website is connected to my YouTube channel. So no copyright issues. It's all connected.

I'm like, known by YouTube with this, if that makes sense. So anything I produce on this website is cleared for me to upload to YouTube without any copyright strikes. So music, video, everything's all available.

So I, the audio of me, that's obviously original. It's me. But then I put in music, background music from their library.

And then I put in a video. So it turns it into an actual proper video, like spirals, and various, there are lots of different things I've done. I've made four so far.

And I still got to make one. I won't make one for this record, for this recording. I'm only doing it for the hypnosis recordings.

So I will need to do another one probably before I go to bed. And that takes, it takes a bit of a while to put it together. I'm getting used to it.

I'm getting a little bit quicker, I guess now that I'm getting used to it. But it's, I quite like it. Although my videos are a lot longer than they recommend.

So I have to check it afterwards to make sure it's okay. So far, it's been fine. Then I upload it to YouTube.

And I need to make a thumbnail. I'll do that on Canva at the moment. But I will be using Photoshop.

I don't want to learn Photoshop yet. I'm busy learning the audio software. I'll learn that first.

Get to the point where, you know, I've done that for a month or so, and I know my way around it. And because I'm editing maybe three recordings a day, two recordings a day, whatever. I will become more competent after a month or so.

And then I will learn more how to use the video software. And then I'll look into maybe using Photoshop to make the thumbnails. But I've made some nice thumbnails for my YouTube videos.

For me, they look okay for me. And people are listening, people are watching the videos, actually. I was surprised.

Not a huge amount. You know, it's not like anything spectacular, but people are watching, which I'm three people. And the subscribers has gone up a little bit.

So I'm getting one or two new subscribers a day, which again, is not a lot. But you know, it's it takes time. Takes time.

And I released, I released a recording today and it's had 30 video views, or 29. Now I know that's not a lot. You know, I'm not, I'm not dragging, obviously.

But it's a lot more than I was getting before. And with the consistency and putting the effort in, I think probably, you know, this time next year, I'll be a millionaire, a millionaire. This time next year.

I wanted to get to 1000 subscribers by Christmas. But you know, I did ask on my last podcast, if any people could go to my YouTube channel, but no one answered. One person might have done.

So I can't can't rely on people that listen to me on the podcasts to go to YouTube. But then, you know, if you listen, if you're sitting down, with your eyes closed, going to sleep or relaxing, the last thing you want to do is pick up your phone and start going through YouTube, you know, so I understand it. And just do it, go on, pick up, pick up your phone, just do it.

I need 1000 subscribers. And I will get them. I got 784 so far.

So you know, even if I haven't gone, it doesn't matter if I haven't got them by next, by Christmas, and 11 by January or February, doesn't really matter. This is just it's all it's an organic thing. It's just a see, you know, it takes a while for this stuff to grow, which is fine.

That's part of the fun of it. Because if it was easy, there'd be no point doing it. It's not easy.

It's, it's, there's a lot involved in the older YouTube world. And because that's, that's the world I came from originally. It's just revisiting and the world's changed quite a bit, but there's still some, some things are the same, which is okay.

That's all right. I'm fine with it. It's just, just getting to learn.

And also, it's, it's, it's a different audience. YouTube is a different audience to podcasts. I'm not quite sure how to explain it.

I'm more of a YouTube audience than a podcast audience. I'm both but I prefer, I think YouTube because I like to watch a lot of tutorials and excuse me, learn new things, learn how to use software, um, how to use the different equipment I've got and how, you know, I think just anything to do with podcasting or videos or the equipment. So YouTube kind of is the place for me to go for that.

Now, if I was going to, I was actually sometimes I do like to listen to like, relaxation stuff, you know, like, excuse me, music and such like, but it's, yeah, I quite, I like to listen to motivational speakers as well, like Jim Rohn and I'm trying to think of people. Earl Nightingale is my favourite. Earl Nightingale is the king, the absolute queen and king and prince of motivational, inspirational speakers.

He, he, phenomenal, phenomenal. There's been a lot, you know, and I know that, uh, what's his name? What's his name? Have I got his books? Blimey, his name's gone out of my head, but my brain ain't working properly at the moment. Talk motivational, uh, Tom, Tony Robbins, of course.

I see these motivational speakers, this is what's coming up. Eric Thomas, Les Brown, Nick Dujovic, Brian Tracy, Jack Canfield, Mel Robbins, Leonia Van Zandt, Oakfoot Winfrey, Jim Rohn. No, he died in 2009.

It's ridiculous, I didn't realise that. Wow, 1930, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 2000, 79. He, and then you've got Chris Gardner, Eckhart Tolle, Dave Ramsey, David Goggins, Zig Ziglar, 1926 to 2012.

He was my, one of my first, uh, he was my first, he was one of my first motivational speakers I listened to. Tony Robbins was about the same kind of time as well. Damon John, Deepak Chopra, Robin Benincasa, Susie Osman, no, Susie Orman, Amy Purdy, Simon Sinek, Wayne Dyer, 1940 to 2015.

I like Dane Meyer, Wayne Dyer. I've listened to quite a few of his, uh, audios and, yeah, amazing. You don't need me to tell you that, do you? He's amazing, absolutely amazing.

What is that? That's weird, that's a weird picture. It's got him, it got him a picture, but he's standing in front of a, all right, oh, it's a picture, okay, fair enough. No, this looks like he's standing, he's sitting in front of a picture, like a board, and it's got his date of birth, and his, to his last date on it behind him, thinking that's a bit weird, but then it's a, it's a tribute picture.

Grant Cardone, I've listened to, Grant Cardone, he's had a bit of a, I don't know, he's, he's quite a full-on character, and I've, I've got, I think, two, three of his audio books on Audible, and one of his 10x, and it's 10x, basically 10, it's about doing 10 times the work. If you want 10 times the result, you do 10 times the work. It's pretty basic stuff, yeah, but very hard, so it's not about working clever, it's about working, just, just doing more, getting more done, and then you've got Darren Hardy, Robert Kiyonosaki, rich dad, poor dad man, have you heard of him?

Have you? Have you heard of him? I remember listening to those audio tapes back in 1998, 97, 98, blimey, Brendan Burchard, Sean Anchor, Atcher, T Harv Eker, and you've got Gretchen Rubin, Magic Johnson, Bear Grylls, Bear, who'd call their child Bear?

I mean, really, come on, here's my first child, Bear, and this is Horse, Horse, wait till you meet Worm, this is just Molly Fletcher, Sandeep Maheshwari, Maheshwari, Louise Hay, I love Louise Hay, 1926 to 2017, no, Stephen Covey, 1932 to 2012, I didn't know he was not around, wow, 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82, 93, 2002, 2012, it's 80, I, well, first of all, I didn't know he was bald, but I, because there's a picture of him, I read the book, The Seven Habits, Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, in 1998, and well, I listened

to the book, I listened to the audio, and I did buy the book as well, which meant 32, 42, 52, 62, 72, 82, 92, he was like nearly 70 when he wrote that book, he was nearly 70, so how old was he when he became a speaker?

Wow, early life and education, yeah, okay, Covey's book, Spiritual Routes of Human Relations, was published in 1970, but he didn't write The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People till 1989, which sold more than 20 million copies, wow, I had a bike accident, oh, I'll tell you who I do like, and I didn't realize, I read this book, where is he?

I just went past him a minute ago, damn, not damn, Ramsey, no, it's not him, go away, go away, Bear Grylls, oh, cool, I've already done that, okay, Earl Nightingale, he's right at the end of the queue, he's second from the end, 1921 to 1989, Earl Nightingale, phenomenal, now, some people wouldn't like some of the things he says, because, bear in mind, he was doing recordings in the 60s, 50s, 60s, 70s, he was a man of those times, so, the traditional ways of, I don't know, I'm not going to go any further, some people would

listen and think, but, if you forget that, if you spoke to someone, let's say Abraham Lincoln, now, that's someone that I imagine a lot of people, if they're given the opportunity, like, yeah, that's got to be a very interesting person to meet, but his mannerisms and the things he said and his attitudes might not, or might conflict with your own attitudes towards men and women and relationships and stuff like that, you know, I'm just guessing someone from 100 years ago might well have had a, it was over 100 years, or was it 300 years ago,

200 years ago, was it a million years ago, bloody damn you, where you gone, Jim Rohn, love Jim Rohn, Jim Rohn is a number two, Earl Nightingale, out of the ones that I like, Earl Nightingale, Jim Rohn, and then, I guess, there's, there's, they've got missing people here, they've got people that should be on here that I wonder why that is, I wonder why, I do wonder, right, there's, I can't find him now, it's like he's disappeared, why would he hide, Eccle Jim Rohn, Jack Canfield, Jack Canfield wrote a book, you might not, you know

the book probably, you might not have heard of him, but you might well have done, Chicken Soup for the Soul, he wrote that with, I don't know who he wrote it with, he wrote Chicken, he was a co-author of Chicken Soup for the Soul, and Chicken Soup for the Soul, okay, Mark Victor Hansen, 1993, the success principles, how to get from where you are to where you want to be, and I had that on CD, I think, brilliant, absolutely brilliant, Chicken Soup for the Soul was brilliant as well, but that was, the success principles, I

think it was, I think it was that, but it was an audio book, well not a book, I guess it was, Living the Law of Attraction, and this is back in 2005, success principles, yeah I guess, it was a CD, CD, the thing is, it says there's only 70, 67 essential principles, but there was at least four CDs in the case, I guess he's expanding, manding, but on each principle, it's very good, I've really, I used to listen to it every day, very, very good, I was very happy with that, I was very pleased, in

fact, wait a minute, what was the book that I, Jack Canfield, Tapping into Chicken Soup for the Soul, there was a book that I had that was so good, that I bought a copy for everyone, not in the world, but like family, guaranteed not one of them read it or looked at it, it's fine, it's up to them, but it's such a good book, and I've read, I've read, I must be thousands of books over my life, and this just stood out, it's really weird, I've actually got Chicken Soup for the Soul right in front

of me on a bookcase, I forgot I had it, next to it is Men are from Mars, and Mars are from Penis or something, so it's got them two together, wow, Sophie's World, anyone ever read that book, Sophie's World, it's basically just a storybook, but it's got lots of philosophy, well it's all about philosophy, it's good, it's a really good book, Jack Canfield, I like Louise Hay, I've listened to a few of her bits, and Louise Hay, where are you, Zig Ziglar, I loved Zig Ziglar, there was never a more positive speaker than him, I

loved him, I used to listen to him all the time, really for years and years, so Earl Nightingale, I've probably talked about him before, but he basically had a, he did a recording called The Strangest Secret, and it was an album, it was a Buchanan album, and he, it was sold millions, over a million copies in America, so yeah, during 19, it was 1956, he produced a spoken word record of The Strangest Secret, which sold more than a million copies, making it the first spoken word, the first spoken word recording to achieve gold record status,

ever, and during the 1960s, a condensed audio version of Think and Grow Rich was narrated by Nightingale, it was titled Think and Grow Rich, cool, oh no, The Essence of the Immortal Book by Napoleon Hill, narrated by Earl Nightingale, and so Nightingale, he had a radio station, a radio program called Our Changing World, and when he retired, him and his wife Diana formed the company Keys Publishing, just prior to passing away in 1989, Nightingale created a new format for a book named The Winner's Notebook, it included his text, his illustrations, and incorporates space for a

private journal, that's someone I would like to have met, I just, it's weird if you listen, you know you listen to someone regularly, and I listen to him quite regularly, sometimes every day, and just, it's amazing, just think he's amazing, anyway, check some of these people out, you might like them, so, I gotta go, very tired, thank you for listening, remember to be kind to yourself, be gentle with yourself, lots of love, and I'll speak to you again tomorrow, bye.
