Real Spiel 20/20

In this episode I discuss a variety of things with my gf Sherine. Sherine was born in Egypt and moved to the U.S. when she was 16 years old. It's her first time ever doing a podcast and we discussed what it was like being a teen moving to Tennessee and her thoughts on the current upheaval in the Middle East. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/realspiel2020/message

We've all got a choice - we can either wake up everyday and allow our circumstances to control our attitude - or we can let our attitudes control our circumstances. I truly believe this. Waking up with gratitude for what you have, what you're able to do with that new day gives you both humility and perspective which sets the foundation for your attitude and lights the fire for your efforts. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/realspiel2020/message

How to approach beautiful women and build confidence from it #1. Never be scared or ashamed to approach a girl. Understand that you approaching her was probably the most interesting thing that happened to her that day. #2. 2) Mindset Shift: If you compliment her on something specific, "Hey, your hair looks really good" and just smile, do you think she will be rude to you? NO #3 DO'S Look her in the eye Approach from the front Have a smile Give her a time constraint -" hey, I'm in a hurry, but I just..." #4. DON'TS- Creepy, unsure movements Fast, Jerky reactions Never approach her from behind Don't be in her face Seeking rapport tonality ( which sounds like "please talk to me") #5. Some openers: "Hey, I wanted a female opinion on something. Would you date a guy even if he was still friends with his ex?" "Let me guess, "you went to Vanderbilt University". Assumptive statements start conversations putting her in a top tier school makes her great about herself. #6. OUTCOME INDEPENDENCE You genuinely wish her well. Whatever she says, does not change your reality. You are expressing your best self, NOT impressing #7. SUB COMMUNICATIONS Own the approach. Your body should be on the side, which says that you can walk away at any time. This makes it easier for her to talk because she knows that you're not going to "stick around for too long". Your eyes should say "Yes, I mean it." #8. WORST CASE SCENARIO: It was the most interesting thing that happened to her that day. She is going to think about it for days after. She is going to tell all her friends. MOST CASES- She is receptive, you two have good chemistry, and you both plan a date --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/realspiel2020/message

In episode #60 I reflect on the changes in my morning routines from the simplicity of Springing forward and having more light in the day. It seems like a silly thing to notice but the past three years have been so dark and this last time change seemed to sum it up perfectly. Maybe it's me. Maybe it was seeing how the sun affected life in Yellowstone. Maybe it's just a random coincidence, who knows but this time I think we have a unique opportunity to TRULY Spring forward from the darkness of the past three years.

If you've been following me since 2009 you may recall a phase where I went all in on my physical health. At that time I had just become a father, my marriage was ending, I was overweight (269 lbs) and had developed Type 2 Diabetes. My life was a real shitshow and it needed to be addressed or I would be on medication for the rest of it. I LOVE being a dad so I decided it was time to do something. I simply got up off my ass, went for a walk, changed my diet and presto, shit got better. I've been thinking about that phase of my life a lot lately. It's hard to explain in a post but ever since the Quarantine period during the Spring of 2020 I've just felt like my life has gotten off course. Today, my attention span is shit, my eating habits are less than ideal and I've lacked discipline in most areas of my life. I'm not blaming all of that on Covid, because all of those things are based on my personal choices. I'm simply saying, I've noticed these things, I'm accountable and now I intend to correct them. Over the next 6 weeks I'm going to do what I've called a "45 Day factory reset" I choose 45 days because it allows wiggle room on a 30 day challenge which should limit any frustrations or anxiety that arises from not achieving one of my daily goal while still keeping me focused on the task at hand. 45 days should also be enough time to develop healthier habits moving forward. 1. 10K steps a day (minimum) outdoors where the graphics are great wearing my neoprene weight kutting shirt and a hoodie to pull all of the toxins out of me. 2. 1 hour everyday in the weight room pushing weight not standing around talking or using a bike, treadmill or other machine. I should feel these workouts! 3. Drink 3.7 liters of water everyday to replace the water I'm pulling out walking. Call it a human cleanse. Every year we flush the radiator and AC in the car, I'm doing it to my body. 4. Eat healthy: only lean proteins (skinless chicken breast, steak and salmon) with fresh greens, cucumbers, tomatoes, mushrooms, carrots, radishes, bananas, watermelon, pineapple, apples, oranges, grapes, blackberries and nuts. 5. NO - fast food, carbonated drinks, sugary drinks, energy drinks, caffein, processed lunch meats, canned foods, bread, pasta or rice. 6. No more Social. Deactivating Twitter and Instagram. Limiting posts on Facebook to business and updates. 7. Read 1 book a week. After I read “A River runs thru it” last week I actually felt more alert. It's hard to explain but it's something I want to expand on. I've picked a handful of books that are all quick reads and exhibit characteristics that I'm personally looking for. That said I believe EVERY man should read once in their life. A. The Sun Also Rises - Earnest Hemingway B. The Great Gatsby - F. Scott Fitzgerald C. The Autobiography of Benjamin Franklin - Big Ben D. The Call of the Wild - Jack London E. Rich Dad Poor Dad - Robert Kiyosaki Current weight - 215 Current screen time - absurd Current level of maturity - high school LOL Don't worry I'm not going to blow up this page with progress reports or motivational memes. I'm going to podcast the process because talking into my AirPods recording those shows is kind of a cathartic process. Who knew?' Anyway, lets see where I'm at around Easter or more specifically in 45 days. If anybody wants to walk shoot me a text or drop me a DM. Pray for my 13 yo son who has to suffer along with me

Real Spiel 20/20 is an unscripted, unedited and unfiltered show hosted by Shawn King. This show takes an honest look at relevant topics and how they impact our personal and professional lives. In this episode I touch on the emotional toll 2021 took on me personally, finding myself at the bottom of the emotional rabbit hole right as the year was ending and how I view dating and dating apps as a result. Feeling anger, sadness and anxiety is perfectly normal. Suffering and feeling emotions are a healthy and unfortunately unavoidable fu*cked up part of life. However, wallowing in our pain and feelings is a personal choice. What a lot of people don't understand is the ability to be able to feel something, recognize the feeling and simply move on from it is a skill called “resilience” and it takes conscious effort and practice. Definitely one of the 6 life skills I hope to improve in 2022.  1) Build resilience 2) start living my life with purpose rather than winging everything 3)  have happier and healthier personal and professional relationships 4) master my emotional intelligence 5) challenge the things I believe more  6) set achievable goals which make me a better person.    Follow us on Social: Facebook - @realspiel2020 Tik Tok - @realspiel2020 Twitter - @realspiel2020 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/realspiel2020/message

The Tao of Shawn 10 lessons I've learned over the last 10 years #1. The older I get, the more I realize it's less about what I want and more about what I'm willing to give up. #2 The best question I ever asked myself was “What pain am I willing to put up w/ in my life?” That question took me where I wanted to go. Basically it's about picking the bullshit I was willing to deal with to get the quality of life I want. Professionally- long nights, Sundays in the office, out bound calls, all of the horrible networking shit and the idiots you meet = the amazing job and financial security Relationships- all of the tough conversations, awkward silences, the hurt feelings, silly DRAMA = the great sex, laughter and awesome relationships #3. I have far less time on this planet than I think so the name of the game NOW is to use my time well. There are A LOT more days in the review mirror than in the windshield so respect the present. #4. A nice dinner with the people I love and enjoy being around is a 10x' better than attending a party or event with hundreds of people I don't know. #5. Waking up early and going for a walk really is the shit. I'm grateful for my health and intend to take advantage of it as long as I can. #6. When you achieve your dreams it never really feels the way you thought it would. That's not to diminish an accomplishment it's just an “ok.. now what?!” moment. #7. Expectations just fuck you up and fear of failure is the ultimate weakness. ~ I've found the real trick in life is too bite off more than I can chew and then just fucking chew. Don't be afraid to act without knowing the result. Don't be afraid to make a decision. Don't be afraid to do new things. When you do act stop taking everything personally after you do that. 8. If you want to be successful you have to clearly define what that means to yourself. 9. Fucktards are cancer! Fuck excuses from other people, don't tolerate fake people, get rid of haters and negative talkers. 10. Every moment we are in a bad relationship we're missing an opportunity to grow personally and find a good one Leave a comment and refer a friend to check out the show. you can listen to us online at: Anchor.fm https://anchor.fm/s/13e8962c/podcast/rss Subscribe on iTunes | Apple Podcast | Spotify | Google Podcast | iHeart Podcast | Amazon Music | Breaker | Castbox | Overcast | Pocket Casts | Castbox | Radio Public | Stitcher Like us on Facebook: @realspiel2020 Follow us on Twitter: @realspiel2020 Check out our YouTube channel https://youtube.com/c/ShawnKing1970 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/realspiel2020/message

Keep it simple; spend less than you make, and save up for the big-ticket items until you can afford them. But when you can, enjoy the fruits of your labor; money's only something you need if you don't die tomorrow. Avoid extreme and unrealistic health pledges. Eat right, exercise sensibly, and drink mostly in moderation; it's not rocket science. Write down your goals. Less than 10% of people ever fulfill their resolutions, but when people make lists, they are significantly more likely to accomplish them. . Stay in on Friday nights. Go tech-free, read a book, avoid the teeny-bopper date night crowd, and have a more productive weekend. It'll also save thousands of dollars per year. Put your phone away at dinner. Checking your phone after someone else pulls out their phone is the yawn of our generation. Get a comprehensive health exam. Spend more time with people you disagree with ideologically. This is how we get smarter. It's okay to like Bill Maher and Ben Shapiro, Tucker Carlson, Anderson Cooper, Sean Hannity and Sarah Silverman. Read more. Take a vacation by yourself. Make your bedroom technology free. You'll sleep better, live longer, and have a better relationship with your partner.  Laugh more. What does that mean? Socialize. Drink. Throw parties. Host game nights. Upgrade your friends if necessary. Don't just rely on the gym. Remember that feeling of playing a competitive sport as a kid, when you're on the field, and not thinking about anything else? Take more pictures with a camera. You'll end up doing more interesting things in the process. Make yourself more interesting. Take a course, class, or adopt a hobby. Don't just read about Daisy and Jay, go out and be them. Most people wouldn't even be the main characters in the movie of their own lives. Never forget: You die twice, once when you stop breathing, and again when somebody mentions your name for the last time. Live accordingly.

Walking the dog - quick hitters recorded while I walk my dog (Brooklyn) in the morning. These recordings are my way of holding myself accountable to record more podcasts and to get my brain focused on the day. forgiveness is as a conscious, deliberate decision to release feelings of resentment or vengeance toward a person or group. It sounds easy enough right? Unfortunately for most people the "reason" a relationship is severed or a wedge is driven becomes an actual commitment not just a feeling and stubbornness/ pride prevents them from reversing their decision Why carry that type of weight on silly matters? you can listen to us online at: Anchor.fm https://anchor.fm/s/13e8962c/podcast/rss Subscribe on iTunes | Apple Podcast | Spotify | Google Podcast | iHeart Podcast | Amazon Music | Breaker | Castbox | Overcast | Pocket Casts | Castbox | Radio Public | Stitcher Like us on Facebook: @realspiel2020 Follow us on Twitter: @realspiel2020 Check out our YouTube channel https://youtube.com/c/ShawnKing1970 --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/realspiel2020/message

Parenting is never easy, but it's been even more difficult this past week. In this episode I discuss the tragic loss of a young person's life and the way it's impacted me as a parent. I go into the idea of confidence and shyness and the difference between the two traits depending on the age of a child. I reflect on rejection and the illusion of being invisible at time.

Monday Morning QB'ing - Episodes devoted to dating in your 40's and 50's In this episode I provide some insight into what you can expect to find in the dating cesspool that exists today. 1. You meet someone close in age who's divorced but their kids are all grown up, so they don't want to be around young kids any longer. They would rather act like they're 20 again and want to make up for what they missed out on. 2. You meet someone who hasn't gotten over somebody else and all they want to do is get back at that person, so they never stop talking about them 3. You meet someone who has never been married who has never had kids & you realize very quickly why that is. 4. You meet a person just like yourself, divorced very close in age, they have young children and a good career but there isn't any time to make it work and you both realize it. 5. You have a nice head of hair, good metabolism and a good job so you decide to date down in age. Trust me, you can go pretty low actually but what you'll discover at those depths is there's nothing really in common. Typically, you just find someone who needs something, and everything becomes boring really quickly.
