#067: "Be the hero of your own story."
Nobody's going to take charge of your life but you. No one can be the hero of your own journey, but you. You write your own story. You're not the mistakes of your past. You're not all your failures.
Anybody can do this. Even if you don't get your ultimate dream of what you want, you open up doors for something else. You can be proud and have satisfaction in who you are and what you're doing.
Struggle is an essential part to your journey in life. Without struggle or challenge, it's meaningless. Overcoming yourself and obstacles is the great reward in and of itself.
Never give up. You can do it.
See, I'm living proof. In spite of all challenges in my life, I'm doing it. I'm working. I'm becoming disciplined. I'm becoming more focused. I'm getting better everyday.
Again, anyone can choose to turn their life around. Doesn't mean you'll be a billionaire, a famous artist or this and that. But the journey itself is rewarding and valuable, rich in lessons, pride, glory, and happiness. Fulfillment is there for all. If I can do it, so can you.

It'll take time, but it'll all be worth it! It's been worth it just making this podcast for you. Immensely rewarding. Don't sell yourself short! I believe in you!

#064: This is the most amazing time to be alive in human history, especially for Asian societies, and especially for Asian-Americans and diaspora worldwide. There's never been more opportunity. We're experiencing a new unprecedented era and advances in every single field of human endeavor. Peace and prosperity, industry, technology, culture, finance, art, music, spirituality, adventure.
If the First Renaissance took place in Europe from the 14th to the 17th century, then is the Second Renaissance -- Trinaissance? -- taking place in Asia? This is the Asian Century. If you're Asian, if you're diaspora, there's never been a better time to be alive, with more opportunities for success, fulfillment, impact, growth, evolution.
What about your Personal Renaissance?
The rebirth of your heart, mind, and soul?
I've experienced several rebirths in my life.
From being damned to being baptized and saved as a believer in Christ.
To losing my faith entirely and surrendering to nihilism.
To starting a new life in Korea to find myself and build a new identity.
To starting a new career as a copywriter & podcaster, to fulfill the purpose of my life.
From paradigm to paradigm.
If you're reading this, if you can understand this, then you know what it means. You have immense potential.
YOU ARE THE RENAISSANCE!

#063: Six exits and however many millions earned and burned later... what does it all mean? What do you do when you reach "success"?
What do you do when you're BURNED OUT?
How do you stay young?
What's the secret?
Chillionaire Mindset Coach for Burnt-out Over-Achievers Seibo Knows!
I LOVED THIS CONVERSATION!
THIS EPISODE IS A PROPER GOLD MINE, M8!!!
We are on FIRE. We are GLOWING with energy.
We want what's best for you to manifest your dreams into reality and then transcend!
We go deep and hard about some esoteric sheeeeiiiiiit.
(Or maybe not deep and harrrrd enough?)
What do you think? Is Seibo full of crap? AM I FULL OF CRAP?
Tune in and find out!
(Ladies, there's a moment or 2 where we talk about something sexual, please don't be grossed out or offended. We love you!)
We touch upon a ton of amazing things:
- Can you hustle your way as an achiever while lowering your stress to stay young, and be more effective?
- Self-awareness on one's journey - Seibo's where Maim wants to be, but Maim's not quite there yet and that's okay. Maim is exactly where he needs to be, and with that self-awareness he can appreciate and be grateful for the moment and stage he's in now. You can do the same.
- Climbing Mazlow's Hierarchy of Needs to transcend it(?)
- Not rushing to get to the next level in the videogame of life -- not as fast as possible, but going through as thoroughly as possible in order to be better equipped and wiser for the final boss
- What happens when you "skip" the achiever stage and become a hippy seeking enlightenment right out of college? (Spoiler alert: You crash on Seibo's couch like a cheeky bum and realize you've been missing out on that part of life lol)
- Doing things like becoming a successful CEO out of something simple and deep like fear, or like a sense of not belonging
- Are you spending a buncha money out of actual generosity or because you want people to like you and you want to look like a hotshot?
- What sort of mindset is beneficial to you on the way to achieving your goals?
- What sort of paradigms are out there for you?
- What sort of immense benefits for meditation are there for you?
- We talk about Psycho-Cybernetics of course lol
- Who are you more likely to listen to, some hippy who doesn't have experience in the 3D-real-business-world, or a spiritual coach whose been running 3 companies for 3 years longer than he needed?
- In order to understand the metaphysical and esoteric, you have to first grasp the physical / material 3D world. It's all in stages.

#061: I'm quitting my main job that I've been working for 8 years to pursue a full-time freelance copywriting career. From April 2022, I'll basically be totally running my own business, pitching and closing leads, working on projects, building my ever-increasing portfolio, and STACKING PAPER.
That’s right, I’m deluding myself into thinking I know more than I actually do and DUNNING-KRUGERING MY WAY TO SUCCESS! Woohoo! I'mma becum the Mfkin' Dunning-Kruger of Copywriters, m8!
Does this mean I'm totally rich and successful and all that sheeeeiiiit? NO. But it's a huge step in that direction, and I'm just getting started.
This means:
- No more daily 1-hour commutes, 2 times a day, adding up to 10+ hours of commute time a week. I get that time back.
- I can set my own schedule to work, and have even more freedom than I already did.
- I can work from a laptop at a café on the other side of the country by a beach like one of those digital gonads or whatever they're called, as long as I has INTERNETZ. I can work almost anywhere in the world if I so choose! Doesn't mean I'm leaving Korea anytime soon, but it's awesome to know that I can do it if I want.
- I'm that much closer to living that "4-Hour Workweek" ideal. Not that I'd only work 4 hours, but that I'd have the freedom to do whatever I want with my time.
- I'm able to get paid more doing something I'm interested in and good at, which is writing content and ads for blockchain/crypto projects, whitepapers, e-commerce products & services, see the back-end of interesting businesses and industries, and so on.
- I'll have way more time and resources to devote to MAIM TIME! In fact, I never have to monetize this show if I don't want to. Why?
- I can make more than enough money I need for the rest of my gawd-man life, whenever and wherever I am.
This is the most exciting time of my life. I'm in a critical period of transition personally, financially, spiritually.
How did I get here? Where do I begin?
How can this help you in your own personal journey towards what you see as "success"?
Tune in and SEE WHAT TIME IT IS!

#060: I'm going through The Magic of Thinking Big by David Schwartz. This is perfectly in line with the content matter of Psycho-Cybernetics by Maxwell Maltz - check out MAIM TIME #059 to hear me talk about that book that changed my life. I recommend you check that out first, it will give more context to this episode.
In Chapter 6: You Are What You Think You Are, he tells you to create a 60-second "sell-yourself-to-yourself" commercial. It's a pep-talk you can tell yourself everyday.
In this episode, I share mine to give you ideas on how you can have your own 60-second sell-yourself-to-yourself commercial!
As always, please check out this episode's show notes page on the website for more valuable info.

#058: I'm sharing with you my absolute ideal perfect future. I highly encourage you to envision what your perfect future, your perfect self, looks like, and write that shit down. Then, tell yourself that you believe in yourself and put your subconscious to work to make it into reality. That's what I'm doing. I'm making my dreams into reality. It's an expansion of Episode 55: Making 2022 the Best Year of Our Lives LFG (HARD).
Basically, what do I want my day to day, moment-to-moment life look like in 5 years or less?
I want to have great energetic dynamic days of growth, productivity, health, focused work, efficiency, power, recreation.
What kind of person do you want to be?
What kind of abilities or superpowers do you want to have?
A perfect body. A perfect personality. A perfect home. The perfect lifestyle.
I'm doing this to manifest my dreams. I'm pursuing my wildest dreams.
I AM my ancestors' wildest dreams.
What do you want your future to look like? Please leave a comment on the page for this episode!
Don't be afraid, or care what others think, if they'll judge you. It's your life.
I believe in myself! And I believe in you!
Stay tuned for next week's episode which will also be GLORIOUS, BASED, and HARD!

#056: How many Asian brothers or sisters do you know that grew up in Latin America speaking Spanish, and then immigrated to the US to KILL IT and live a life of freedom? Samy is the mfkin gawd of recycling metals, m8. Here we have a dope convo with a brother from another mother, my Korean-Bolivian brotha Samy living it up in Cali!
- We talk about our parents sacrificing to take us from Korea (Asia) to the other side of the world (North and South America).
- Samy shares about his struggles growing up in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Samy's a fighter, and a talker. He wouldn't take sheeeeeiiit from no one!
- But then when he was 23 his parents kicked him out and sent his ass to study in America without knowing English or having any skills LOL
- While I take English being my first language for granted, Samy mentions he wishes he could have learned English when he was a teenager. If you're Asian-American or a native English-speaking Asian cause your parents took you to another country, consider yourself privileged and fortunate!
- MAJOR SETBACKS that can feel like the END OF THE FKIN WORLD and make you feel WORTHLESS and like a FAILURE... are all important opportunities to learn and grow from. It's natural, it's human, and it's gawdly to be able to learn and recover, live your life, and take action to do better going forward!
- Just another great story of life showing that life is all about UPs and DOWNs.
- FREEDOM IS PRICELESS! If you're gonna work a corporate job, try to work in a good industry or a good company that'll give you freedom to do what you want after you provide results.
- MONEY ALWAYS GOIN' BE MADE! You need to be happy, you need to love what you're doing.
- Today's not gonna come back. You have to enjoy the process.

#057: How many Asian brothers or sisters do you know that grew up in South America speaking Spanish, and then immigrated to the US to live a better life and KILL IT? Here we have a dope convo with my Korean-Bolivian brother from another mother Samy, living a life of freedom in Cali!
This episode is just a bunch of self-help platitudes and cheesy cliches, but we don't care cause we're LIVING IT! That's life! It's DOPE!
This is Part 2. Check out Part 1 in case you missed it!
Check out the episode page for all the notes!
He also talks about investing and trading in stocks, trading for almost 11 years.
- Find something that you like, try to be the best as possible, and enjoy the process. You fail, it's fine!
- Learn as much as you can. You can learn from everyone, everything.
- 아이 빌리브 아이 캔 플라이 (Hard)
- You can find joy in just doing laundry, in every little thing you do.
- Find something that relieves your stress, whatever works for you.
- If you want to change, find your BIGGEST DEMON... YOURSELF. You really have to know yourself.
- The hardest thing is to know yourself, admit the dark things about yourself, in order to change.
- If you're not a homeless person in the street with a serious mental disorder... if you're able to listen to this podcast, you have all the opportunity to change your life, to learn and grow and be happy and live a fulfilling life! This is the most amazing time to be alive!
- Failure is okay. Don't be afraid to fail. Learn from your failures. You're failing cause you're trying.
- The beauty of this era: When you wanted to build something, it used to take 10 years. Now in this day, with the Internet, you can do it in 3 years.
- What used to take 10 years, you can do in 3. THAT'S AMAZING! You can fail 100 times!!!
- You have more chances and opportunities than ever! Go out there. DO IT!
- It's not how much you make. It's how much you keep.
- Samy loves America. Samy went to America with NOTHING. He built his life from NOTHING. He's not even that rich (or so he says!!) but he has a nice place, drives a nice car, flies wherever he wants. So if he can do it, so can you! America still has lots of opportunities. It's the land of opportunity. You can be whoever you want in America. Samy's opinion 😉
- To Asian minorities like us: People might pick on you if you're different, but that's cause they're afraid. Love yourself. Just being Asian is awesome. Somebody says something bad to you? It's cause they're scared of you. Being a foreigner, you're already better, because you're of two cultures. It takes a lot to learn two or more cultures.
- Don't be afraid to put yourself out there, live your life. Time never comes back. Life is beautiful. Love the process. Everything can be yours. You can be whatever you want to. You can do it. Just do it. It's normal to feel down at times. You're not a machine, it's human. I have those feelings too. You can do whatever you wanna do.
- Don't compare yourself to others. You're unique as a person. Love yourself.
- Everyone has the opportunity to become the best version of themselves.
