 Hi, this is Mitch Mitchell and I have a question for the men out there This part is just for men, but women can watch this too because I'm betting you don't know this either Here's the question. Do you know how to shave? Now right off the bat. I know a lot of people are saying well sure shave all the time. No Do you know the proper way that you're really supposed to shave? I'm gonna tell you What you're supposed to do is first you're supposed to use a little bit of warm water and you're actually supposed to wipe your face off first with the warm water and you know Let it just sit for like a few seconds or whatever and then you take your shaving cream and you put it in your hand and You put it all on your face and you kind of rub it in a little bit And you rub it in really nice Then you let it sit for about three to five minutes and what that does is it gets everything really soft and Makes it easier so that when it's time to shave it'll go a lot smoother than normal It doesn't matter whether you've got kind of like coarse hairs like you know like like people have or whether your hair is a little Straighter and softer This actually makes the process better and it makes it easier to shave Then what you're supposed to do is you're supposed to wipe off the shaving cream And in in sections so you wipe it off and then you shave and you go with the grain You don't go against it, but you go with the grain now It's okay if you end up going over it a couple of times But you go with the grain and you go relatively slow, so it's kind of like this And that's you know how you're supposed to shave then When you're all done and you've gotten Every inch every part of the face that you want to shave because sometimes you have to go back a little bit further for some people or Further down on the neck or whatever and when you're done with all that Then you're supposed to get cool water not hot water Which is what a lot of people do but cool water and you're supposed to put that on there And one of the things is you can use aftershave But it's not recommended because they put all that extra junk in there So what you can use if you don't want to use cool water is you can use alcohol Basically, that's what aftershave is except it's got the perfumes, but alcohol, but cool And that's how you really supposed to shave now that entire process will probably end up taking anywhere from you know Six to eight or nine minutes depending on how much hair you have or how often you shave But it's worth it if you're looking for a smooth shave and if you're looking for a comfortable shave and Of course one of the things that going with the grain is that maybe you might end up having to shave just slightly more often than normal Maybe I'm one of those people where when I was shaving against the grain or when I do that I pretty much don't have to shave for a couple of days. I get a little bit of stubble here and there But you know in general I don't get that now Here's the next question Since I just taught you how to shave the next question would be well, why don't we do that? How come none of us do that? Probably because we most of the time don't have that kind of time. We really don't It's kind of a luxury thing. I do it from time to time, you know when I'm in the hotel room I almost never do this at home. This is the truth But when I'm here in the hotel room some nights I just feel like taking a little bit a little bit of time and so I'll put it on and then I'll go and I'll put stuff in the dishwasher I may wash something or do whatever and then I will come back and I will shave I will make it part of the process. Like I said, I never do this at home and Probably because at home I never feel like I have enough time to really get everything done Whereas these days since I'm in the hotel room for up to three weeks at a time I feel like you know, I've got nothing but time. I don't have as many distractions I almost never turn the TV on when I'm in the room is just being on the computer So when I want to get away from it and do something else I take a little bit of time So that's one of the reasons that we don't do that But the other reason is sometimes we feel like we have other ways There's a lot of other ways for instance You can use electric razor and go pretty fast or you can just put something on and go, you know Really quickly some people like to shave in the shower, you know, we are one of those Generations we're one of those periods of time where we want instant gratification. I'm no different than anybody else I want my stuff now if I go out to a restaurant I want my food within five minutes not gonna happen most of the times if you go to a quality place There's not a Japanese or Chinese restaurant where they actually have cooked a whole bunch of stuff So they can just like put it together really fast or barbecue places Right now. I'm consulting in the South and I have been amazed at how fast you get Me at a barbecue place and your sightings, you know, usually it's way within five minutes I've gotten stuff in two minutes, which is really shocking because you're not expecting that at least from, you know, up in central, New York That never happens at home. So It's amazing stuff, but we want the instant gratification, but we also want to do things our way We don't necessarily always want to follow all of the rules We want to kind of break the mold and and do these things our own way and feel like we're our own person By the way, I hope the ladies are back now Actually, I don't know how many women watch my videos. That'd be interesting I'll have to find that out one day, but we like to do things our own way so if We feel like we don't have the time and we like to do things our own way That how come so many people keep doing and saying the same things over and over and over again Without ever noticing that hey, geez, you know, nothing is changing for me. I'm not getting any better I'm not getting any better responses and I'm making any more money You know, why is that I could ask myself the same question You know, I put out the videos on this channel and my other channel every once in a while a video Hits the mark and it gets a lot of people who are watching it But most of the time they don't I don't and I know that probably I could benefit from some editing software I could probably benefit by Advertising a little bit more or being a little bit more overboard, you know Maybe take a video and promote it 10 to 20 times before I make another one. Why don't we do that? Why don't I do that? I don't do that because I don't want to be pushy Hey, which is a bad business thing by the way because you know Although I don't make these particular videos necessarily for business One of the things is that I'm looking to be in my own way kind of a personality someone who people will invite Into their organizations to speak or at their events You know, I've done some professional speaking here and there you may not be able to tell it by the video But you know, it's kind of hard just doing this and staring at a video and not editing But I'm great live. Yeah, I'll tell you that I actually have a tape somewhere. Oh, geez. I said a tape Yeah, I made it in 2004. So it's a tape But it's out there somewhere but you know we just Always kind of forgetting that we have these things that we want to do we want to be different We want to stand up from the crowd and yet we pretty much end up doing the exact same thing as everybody else Why is that? I don't really have an answer this time. I don't have an answer So I'm putting it out there asking you guys Why do we tend to pretty much keep doing the same things when we're not getting the kind of responses that we want from it Or the kind of results from it. Let me know, you know Like it comment on it share it, but let me know give me some ideas. Why? Why do you think I'm not doing it? Why are you not doing it? No trolls allowed That one's still out there. That one will always be out there. Anyway, this is Mitch Mitchell. Hope y'all have a great day and shave well
