1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,000 Speaker 1: That's impossible. Let me tell you what I believe. 2 00:00:03,240 --> 00:00:07,799 Speaker 2: It's your weakness, it's not your technique. 3 00:00:08,199 --> 00:00:14,560 Speaker 1: Don't think you know The Impossible Life Podcast and yes, 4 00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:15,640 sitting on a winning lottery. 5 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:20,160 Speaker 3: Second, an idea that is fully formed, fully understood, that sticks. 6 00:00:22,920 --> 00:00:26,679 This is the Impossible Life Podcast because Nick and I 7 00:00:26,760 --> 00:00:30,640 are attempting to live impossible lives. What we know is 8 00:00:30,679 --> 00:00:34,880 that nothing is impossible. So instead of using impossible as 9 00:00:34,880 --> 00:00:37,719 an excuse to not try, we'll use the pursuit of 10 00:00:37,799 --> 00:00:42,320 impossible as an accelerant for greatness. If something's never been 11 00:00:42,359 --> 00:00:46,119 done before, that just means it's unexplored. If they tell 12 00:00:46,119 --> 00:00:49,399 you it's too hard, it's just waiting to be simplified. 13 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,119 Impossible as a default label used by uncourageous people unwilling 14 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:56,039 to take a risk. 15 00:00:56,719 --> 00:00:57,719 Speaker 1: The real truth is this. 16 00:00:58,640 --> 00:01:02,479 Speaker 3: The solution to any impossible task starts with this question, 17 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:05,439 if I had to what would it take? 18 00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:06,159 Speaker 1: What would it take? 19 00:01:09,879 --> 00:01:12,359 Speaker 2: Welcome to another episode of the Impossible Life Podcast. 20 00:01:12,439 --> 00:01:13,079 Speaker 1: I'm your co host. 21 00:01:13,159 --> 00:01:15,239 Speaker 2: Nick surfaces, and I'm looking across as a man so 22 00:01:15,480 --> 00:01:18,439 assertive as a teenager. He told his gross spurt when 23 00:01:18,439 --> 00:01:26,200 to start and when to stop. That's right, friends, Garrett, uncleback, 24 00:01:26,359 --> 00:01:29,680 a man who engineered his own height to exact specification. 25 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:32,799 Speaker 1: See, these are the credit. 26 00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:35,879 Speaker 3: These are the These are the intros that I see 27 00:01:35,879 --> 00:01:39,200 the humor in the humor that you see and when 28 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,120 you look at not my humor, but I know when 29 00:01:42,159 --> 00:01:44,079 you look at me as my friends, sometimes you think 30 00:01:44,079 --> 00:01:46,599 it's funny. These are the intros that I think are 31 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:49,920 good because there's a little ounce of truth in there. 32 00:01:50,680 --> 00:01:53,000 Speaker 2: You know what's amazing about this. We are three hundred 33 00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:54,719 and fifteen episodes in, and if you go back to 34 00:01:54,760 --> 00:01:57,359 the early ones, from day zero, you've always felt that 35 00:01:57,400 --> 00:02:00,280 your appropriate response to my intros was to to to 36 00:02:00,319 --> 00:02:02,200 give me your thoughts and judgment on them. 37 00:02:02,319 --> 00:02:07,120 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's like yeah, like you know if you're if 38 00:02:07,120 --> 00:02:09,400 you're funny or not. I like this one because there's 39 00:02:09,439 --> 00:02:12,879 an ounce of truth there. When I was not tall, 40 00:02:13,400 --> 00:02:15,759 I told people like, hey, I don't just I'm about 41 00:02:15,800 --> 00:02:16,360 to start growing. 42 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:18,599 Speaker 1: I'm going to be tall, dude. I prayed. 43 00:02:18,599 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 2: I prayed as well whenever I was a kid, because 44 00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:22,039 my mom is like five three and my dad was 45 00:02:22,080 --> 00:02:25,319 six six. And I say was because he's shrinking as 46 00:02:25,319 --> 00:02:28,240 he gets older. Love pops. But I but like I 47 00:02:28,719 --> 00:02:30,240 was like dude, I can't be as sure as my mom. 48 00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,639 Like that was like the worst thing in the world 49 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:34,599 to me. So God answers prayers. Man, you and I 50 00:02:34,639 --> 00:02:36,360 are the same height and we both broke six foot 51 00:02:36,400 --> 00:02:39,000 Praise the Lord. Okay, so gee today, I always want 52 00:02:39,039 --> 00:02:41,240 to dive in. Man, it's tools and tactics. This is 53 00:02:41,280 --> 00:02:45,199 a biggie man. Three ways to fight apathy. Apathy is 54 00:02:46,479 --> 00:02:49,120 not only is it everywhere, I feel like it's accepted 55 00:02:49,240 --> 00:02:51,199 and oftentimes encouraged as like. 56 00:02:51,199 --> 00:02:55,560 Speaker 1: A wise thing of like, hey, you know you can't. 57 00:02:55,280 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: Do all of it, and look, we're not like to 58 00:02:57,639 --> 00:02:59,879 do everything you need to fight every battle in the world. 59 00:03:00,039 --> 00:03:01,800 God's definitely put you and given you a grace for 60 00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,919 something specific. But I feel like we are there's a 61 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:07,599 lot fewer people that we have to pull back than 62 00:03:07,639 --> 00:03:09,280 we have to kick out. Would you say that's fair, 63 00:03:09,319 --> 00:03:13,360 g That's totally fair. That's reminds me of a way 64 00:03:13,360 --> 00:03:15,520 that we were in the teams. And I'll come back 65 00:03:15,520 --> 00:03:19,240 to that in a second. But it's apathy is one. 66 00:03:19,280 --> 00:03:22,000 It's a disease. But what I hate is that it's popular. Now, 67 00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:25,159 that's not what that's not what the gen zs call it. 68 00:03:25,199 --> 00:03:28,800 They call it nonchalant, and I thought, I was like, 69 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:30,039 is it nonchalant? 70 00:03:30,120 --> 00:03:30,599 Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. 71 00:03:30,759 --> 00:03:34,840 Speaker 3: Yeah, that's considered cool it is to be nonchalant, like 72 00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:37,639 oh it's you know, nothing's hard for me. And I 73 00:03:37,680 --> 00:03:40,439 can see that approach of like making life look easy. 74 00:03:41,080 --> 00:03:44,280 But that's not all of what nonchalant is in gen 75 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,199 Z and this certainly is not like the gen Z 76 00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:50,479 Criticism podcast. We're just commenting on it because it's popular today. 77 00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:52,520 I think it's been popular for a long time. It 78 00:03:52,560 --> 00:03:57,120 just gets rebrand and the current rebrand of apathy is nonchalant, 79 00:03:57,120 --> 00:03:58,719 which is like, oh, you know not, I don't really 80 00:03:58,719 --> 00:04:01,639 care about anything, like don't you know I wear sweatpants 81 00:04:01,639 --> 00:04:04,759 to prom like nothing matters to me. I don't care 82 00:04:04,800 --> 00:04:10,759 about anybody's opinions or feelings. And I'm I'm I'm extremely chalant, 83 00:04:11,120 --> 00:04:14,560 the opposite of nonchalant, which is not a word. Chalant 84 00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:17,480 is not a word, but the type of person that 85 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:20,720 you should be is extremely engaged. I care about everything 86 00:04:20,759 --> 00:04:24,839 I think today matters. Nonchalant is the opposite of what 87 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:28,839 this podcast is. And that's really we hate apathy around here. 88 00:04:28,920 --> 00:04:31,040 We're gonna we're going to beat it up and give 89 00:04:31,079 --> 00:04:33,560 you the tools to defeat it in your life, because 90 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:40,120 apathy is a path to a weak, small, under accomplished, poor, steward, 91 00:04:40,240 --> 00:04:41,079 meaningless life. 92 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:42,920 Speaker 1: If you want to be empty, be apathetic. 93 00:04:44,480 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 4: Man. 94 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:46,600 Speaker 2: I can't wait to text your wife and tell her 95 00:04:46,639 --> 00:04:49,199 that you said you are extremely chalant. That is that's 96 00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:52,160 that's one of the record books right there. It's it's 97 00:04:52,199 --> 00:04:55,079 not a word, but it's not. But I get the point. 98 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,439 But like, let's let's define apathy g because we're talking 99 00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:59,240 about it, but like we went to our man Webster. 100 00:04:59,279 --> 00:04:59,639 Speaker 1: Of course. 101 00:04:59,839 --> 00:05:01,839 Speaker 2: I I think it's so interesting that apathy started as 102 00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:04,639 a positive because it says a want of feeling in 103 00:05:04,759 --> 00:05:08,399 utter privation of passion, or in sensibility to pain, applied 104 00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:10,800 either to the body or mind. As applied to the mind, 105 00:05:10,839 --> 00:05:13,199 it is stoicism, which we would say is a positive thing, 106 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:16,759 a calmness of mind, incapable of being ruffled by pleasure, pain, 107 00:05:16,879 --> 00:05:17,360 or passion. 108 00:05:17,959 --> 00:05:20,680 Speaker 3: It comes from it comes from the Greek apathia, right, 109 00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:23,160 which we've talked about before. It determed to do the 110 00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:27,439 message on apathia versus autarkis. Apathia is the stoic. It's like, hey, 111 00:05:27,480 --> 00:05:31,720 pain doesn't pain doesn't bother me, right, I'm not. I'm 112 00:05:31,759 --> 00:05:35,560 not persuaded by the circumstances of life. That's certainly not 113 00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:38,160 what apathy means in today's culture. 114 00:05:38,560 --> 00:05:41,199 Speaker 2: Right, I just it's like so many words, you know, 115 00:05:41,240 --> 00:05:44,600 we talked about comfort. Comfort started as a positive inward state, 116 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:47,360 and it moved to something being like external, like oh, 117 00:05:47,399 --> 00:05:49,319 I'm only comfortable if the temperature is right, and I've 118 00:05:49,319 --> 00:05:51,079 got all these things. I feel like apathy is like 119 00:05:51,079 --> 00:05:52,560 that as well. It started as like, man, what a 120 00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,720 great disposition of mind that you could be at, because 121 00:05:54,720 --> 00:05:59,600 it says quietism is apathy disguised under the appearance of devotion, 122 00:06:00,639 --> 00:06:02,800 And that's kind of probably the closest that that webster 123 00:06:02,879 --> 00:06:05,240 gets to what we would say that Right now, I 124 00:06:05,279 --> 00:06:07,199 would say, our modern day apthy is just to sit 125 00:06:07,319 --> 00:06:09,519 by and just wish. Right, It's just like, man, I 126 00:06:09,920 --> 00:06:12,519 hope that someone should do something about that, you know, 127 00:06:12,519 --> 00:06:15,399 and like we are, we have so much information and 128 00:06:15,480 --> 00:06:17,759 outrage fed to us on a daily basis that I 129 00:06:17,800 --> 00:06:21,439 almost think it encourages apathy because it's so overwhelming. You 130 00:06:21,439 --> 00:06:24,800 you know, you can't tackle it all, so you tackle nothing. 131 00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,160 Right when you're reading outrage story after outrage of clickbait. 132 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:31,120 Speaker 3: And I want to just say too. I know for 133 00:06:31,199 --> 00:06:34,319 many of you who listen to this podcast, you are 134 00:06:34,839 --> 00:06:39,560 my fellow hard dogs who would say there's no apath, 135 00:06:39,639 --> 00:06:43,800 no apathy here. Thank you, full of energy, busting at 136 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,879 the seams with purpose for life, and I hope that 137 00:06:46,959 --> 00:06:49,160 is the case. I will just remind you that we always, 138 00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:53,079 none of us are perfect, and myself included, have to 139 00:06:53,120 --> 00:06:57,000 fight apathy sometimes even in the smallest areas of our life, 140 00:06:57,040 --> 00:06:59,319 maybe where it doesn't consume a majority of your life. 141 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,360 You can let it in in the little places. And 142 00:07:02,480 --> 00:07:04,360 so let me just give some definition and then we're 143 00:07:04,360 --> 00:07:06,240 going to talk about some tools on how to destroy 144 00:07:06,319 --> 00:07:10,519 apathy in your life. Really simple definition of apathy. It's 145 00:07:10,560 --> 00:07:12,879 just sitting by and hoping things are going to get better. 146 00:07:13,399 --> 00:07:17,000 Apathy is the opposite of all in, which I'm a 147 00:07:17,000 --> 00:07:19,759 big fan of all in. It's one of the foundations 148 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:21,439 for me of an unstoppable team. If you don't have 149 00:07:21,480 --> 00:07:24,120 an unstoppable life, you've got to live all in. Apathy 150 00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:27,279 is the opposite of that. I think all in is 151 00:07:27,399 --> 00:07:30,560 multiplication in your life, like it makes if you'll give 152 00:07:30,680 --> 00:07:33,480 everything that you have, that's where you can see greatness. 153 00:07:33,680 --> 00:07:36,000 You know, when, like I say to people all the time, 154 00:07:36,079 --> 00:07:38,240 if you do ninety percent of God's plan, you do zero, 155 00:07:38,319 --> 00:07:39,800 you get zero percent of the results. But when you 156 00:07:39,839 --> 00:07:42,000 do one hundred percent of God's plan, that's when your 157 00:07:42,000 --> 00:07:46,600 life gets totally transformed. And apathy is the opposite. Apathy 158 00:07:46,759 --> 00:07:49,160 divides your life. It turns what could have been great 159 00:07:49,439 --> 00:07:53,560 into something that's terrible. But really simple definition of apathy 160 00:07:53,720 --> 00:07:56,079 is it's just waiting for things to get better, sitting 161 00:07:56,079 --> 00:07:58,759 by and hoping things will improve. And so where you 162 00:07:58,800 --> 00:08:02,079 may see yourself talking again to my fellow hard dogs, 163 00:08:02,600 --> 00:08:05,839 where you may see yourself as someone like I got 164 00:08:05,879 --> 00:08:08,240 so much energy. I would just ask you, are there 165 00:08:08,279 --> 00:08:11,160 any maybe even some small areas in your life where 166 00:08:11,160 --> 00:08:13,759 you're just sitting by and helping things are going to 167 00:08:13,800 --> 00:08:18,240 get better? A problem that you ignore often turns into 168 00:08:18,319 --> 00:08:22,480 a disaster, often turns into a catastrophe. Apathy is very 169 00:08:22,560 --> 00:08:26,079 dangerous on the battlefield. Thus apathy is very dangerous in life. 170 00:08:26,839 --> 00:08:29,680 Apathy simply is just a lack of care, and you 171 00:08:29,800 --> 00:08:30,720 need lots of care. 172 00:08:31,040 --> 00:08:33,600 Speaker 1: What if God, what if God just started saying I 173 00:08:33,639 --> 00:08:34,600 don't really care about that. 174 00:08:35,480 --> 00:08:38,080 Speaker 2: Well, thank God, he doesn't quite literally thank him that 175 00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:40,600 he doesn't. I think what's so interesting though, ge like, 176 00:08:40,879 --> 00:08:43,559 so we've identified it, but what it will sound like 177 00:08:43,639 --> 00:08:46,759 because is that doesn't matter. Someone else will do it. 178 00:08:46,759 --> 00:08:48,720 It's not a big deal. I can do it later. 179 00:08:48,799 --> 00:08:51,519 It's tomorrow.

You 347 00:16:01,919 --> 00:16:03,720 you're a. Visionary and for sure there are some people 348 00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:06,279 that have greater vision naturally than, others but you know 349 00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:08,279 who the original visionary. Is and this is the encouragement 350 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:11,919 for all of us is our heavenly. Father my father in, 351 00:16:12,000 --> 00:16:14,240 Law win gave my favorite definition of. Vision he, said 352 00:16:14,279 --> 00:16:16,559 vision is seeing the mind Of god in the presence Of. 353 00:16:16,559 --> 00:16:20,039 God and if you want to know and see vision in, 354 00:16:20,120 --> 00:16:22,919 things go to the original, creator the, designer which Is, 355 00:16:22,960 --> 00:16:25,279 god all of us.
