Welcome back. So we opened up the steam part with this new lesson, which is very interesting because the title is define pain, and why is it for you? Now, the questions are that you might have, why should they want to deal with pain? And why should they advocate for me? He is a fundamental aspect of evolution as a business person. Okay, you have pains, no question about that we all did.

Okay. And when it's a pain, I'm not talking about being hurt, or are you gonna be sick of pain? You know, it could be, you know, something that disturbs you that annoys you, that you're not comfortable with. And all these things are pains. But they're all signals. They're all signals that your brain and your mind is sending you to tell you.

There's something that's not quite as you would want them to be. There's something But you have to fix. So that's why it's important that we deal with things you only chose that you have. It's not avoiding pain, that's not an option. You cannot avoid pain period. It's either to accept it passively, or to actively use pain for your purposes, that's the only two options that you have.

Pain is not negative in itself, it's negative in the way you see it, and in the way you use it. But if you use pain, if you are aware of what pain is, and what a specific thing is doing for you, then that could change your approach totally. And you will interact with your business in a much more effective way because you don't just let go and say, Okay, that's it. I've had it. I can, I can take this. But if you can use it, you can take that as a step as a giant step to move to the next level as the title of this video course suggests.

So the reason why do we see it's bad it's only because it's a blessing as I said, and because we don't know really how to use it, when we feel powerless in front of pain. That is when it becomes a problem for us, but it could learn how to use the bank. We don't feel powerless anymore. And the pain is not just fading anymore. Just consider this remember when you were in second elementary and or third elementary right? I can't remember when they were teaching you multiplications that wasn't that painful.

Do you know how to multiply right now is that painful for you? Know why? As a matter of fact, it's useful, right? But it's not a problem for you but it is a big problem for a little child in turtle Elementary. So we have to consider this pain is only a milestone Along the process of an illusion of growth, so let's see better what is actually pain and how it works. So we start with the current state oppressive state, that's the state you are in right now.

In whatever field, it doesn't have to be business it has it could be has to do with your marriage or your or your relationship with your children, whatever. Okay, you have a current state, and you have a desired state. In other words, that's where you would like to be. Because even though your current state may be good, you still have a desire to make it even better. If not, you're dead. Because we want to prove we want always more and that's good.

We don't have to settle for things we have to ask for more of the time. So if your marriage is good, it can even be better. If your relationship with the children is good. It can be bad. So there's a desired state. Now, the gap That you see, between the current state and the desired state is called pain.

It's the it's the difference the gap between how you feel now and how you would like to feel. If your current state is not that far from the desert from a desired state, well, you will treat that as a nuisance. It's not really paying, okay? But you still want to get rid of it. And it's good. You have to get rid of it.

You see that your body, your mind, your sister, sends you signals continuously, which most of the time you ignore. And that's why we have problems many times if we will tackle the signals when they come up. And we started working on them. We want to avoid a lot of things. Now we have to say this about thing. And that is that thing is the major change agent.

Without paying we would not want to change Why would I mean she does something we don't like. It's not Think that we instinctively refuse. We love the status quo. And you understand why the question is now is when you deal with a painful situation, what do you do? Are you going to whine about it? Or are you going to do something about it?

Are you going to react to it? Are you going to find an answer? But he will not fight the pain. Okay, that's what many people make this mistake. You know, this situation is painful. So I aggressive No, no, that's not the point.

That is a mechanistic approach to things mechanistic is the opposite of systemic will you'll you'll understand better this as we go on. So if you have this, you know, tackle the enemy approach, then you will not get where you want. You will perhaps even kill the enemy. But you will let us solve the situation. You will have more pains, more pains or pains until you solve the conditions that causes you that causes the pain to arrive. So this is what you have to learn to deal with.

Now, there are two types of emotional pains. One is the negative reaction that we have as a result of an event arising in that very moment, something that makes us angry, something that makes us envious and jealous or whatever, that's faithful. And it's an immediate message that your birth that your brain sends to you so that you will do something about it. Of course, how you react is what's going to make it even more painful or not. But it's immediate. Okay, after that episode is over.

After that situation has been solved, the emotion goes with it. And so that's all but there are some there's another type of emotional thing that has to do with a background state. That's what these are states. These are emotional states that we carry with us continuously because They're not there as a result of something that's happening. But it's they are there as a result of mental conditions. In the way we see things and the way we see our business, I call this, I call these background emotions because they're always with you.

You can spend a marvelous night with friends having a ball, okay? But you still carry those background emotions with you. And in fact, when something real happens, you just click because of those emotional states that come up and turn into an emotion into that pain, immediate pain that is caused by that event. Then when that event is solved, you go back to your background emotion that is not solved. So we have to understand how to use these background emotions. And that is what the next lesson is going to be talking about.
