 So today's Saturday weekend so that means we're off to go look at some land to potentially buy and build on. So off we go. Alright so we're actually looking at a place a little bit north of New Plymouth here in New Zealand. It's a place called Uranoi. So it's about 29km north of New Plymouth where we're currently residing on the North Island of New Zealand. We're here, let's have a look. So it's just over in Aiket and looks like Rebecca's already on her friend. Rebecca's trying to be a sheep dog. Hello. Alright so it's a probable no, is it a probable no Rebecca? Yeah just the chicken's arm is a bit of a chicken's arm. But in another life Rebecca's a sheep dog anyway. Alright so we're just heading home and we stopped in at Dolly's milk. This is where I go to get my raw milk next to all the little calves. So it's not organic but it's a spray-free low antibiotic use or what I suggest. But raw milk for a daily one milk in a day. So it's like the best milk you can get and it's really cheap. It's $2 a liter which is cheaper than the organic stuff in the supermarket and that's junk because it's all past your eyes. So pretty lucky to have this. Hey so people often wonder what exactly do I do with my time. I am self-employed, I work for myself and I work online which is cool but it's also a little bit lonely. Like I'm here in the house. I'm the only one here. So I thought I'd give you a bit of an insight into the life of a health coach slash blogger slash entrepreneur. So this is my office. Check it out. It's a little bit messy. In fact it's quite messy isn't it. So we've got the Jude lighter over there. I don't really have any drawers. That's why there's stuff everywhere. I've got my whiteboard planner down there. Kittlebells. I've got my nice spongy mat which is good for my feet. Standup disc with the Vary disc, Vary disc, whatever you want to call it. Obviously I do a lot of writing and a lot of research and that's why there were so many books. You've probably seen my blog and my website. If you haven't check over, hit over to my site. That's me a few years ago. It's obviously to do a lot of writing and a lot of work on these blogs. That takes up a lot of my time. I do have a bit of a team. I have a very good friend and virtual assistant named Bruno who lives in Croatia. So I do a lot of chatting to him and videos to him. Yeah and then emails. Emails is a big part of my day. So I thought I'd just show you a few quick emails and what I'm doing on a day to day basis. So here we go. Someone writing in. Load to Zosha and would like to lose a bit of weight. Shooting off emails. I told them to check out my video on the secrets to health and fitness and fell-offs. Someone who had a back injury looking to put on some improved their physical fitness and lose a bit of weight. I told them to check out super slow training given the injury. I try and write based on these articles or these questions coming in. So if I start getting the same question over and over again then I know it's a good article to write about. Though I did just get this email which is really nice. Someone who was on my sleep course and I know this sounds like a bit of a promotion pitch here. It kind of made my day seeing this. Someone who had been struggling with sleep and then they found that they changed their life. She's actually writing a book and she wants to mention me and my sleep program in the book. Again I don't mean that to be like a sales pitch or anything like that. Anyway that's a bit of an insight. Do you have any questions around my office and the sit-up? All questions about health obviously. Feel free to yell out. I'm back to go and clear out a few more emails. Hey so I'm going to do my book review from in front of the news panel today. I've been doing a lot of reading here in the morning as I'm working through the rounds, getting my red light fixed on. So what am I reading? Another Gary Vee book. Gary Vaynerchuk I think that's how he says. It's just his Ask Gary Vee book. It's based on his YouTube channel which I have actually never seen. But I might have to subscribe. Second improvement from, at least for me, from the book I read last week which was his Jeb Jeb write hook book. That was more of a template for how to post on social media. This is just a bunch of questions on marketing, parenting, business, hustling, storytelling, all sorts of stuff. Really simple to read because you literally just open it up and there's a quick cue and answer type thing. And that's what the whole book's about. I don't necessarily believe or align myself with all of his thoughts. He's all about just go, go, go, push, push, push. I personally want a bit more of a balance and I'm happy to sacrifice some business success for family success. Because everyone's definition of success is different. I'm enjoying this one. I am getting a lot of takeaways from it. The main thing for me is the social media marketing insight which is what I actually really struggle with and have always distanced myself from. And so this blog, for instance, is another way for me to get into that social media world. Speaking of which, please let me know your thoughts and feedback on this. Again, like I know I sort of brought it up in previous videos, but this is all a big experiment for me. I just want to do a few weeks to see what the reaction's like. If there's something you'd like to see more of, let me know. If you want to see more training, more food, more books, whatever, let me know. If there's something you want to see less of, you know, you don't care about this book or views, just please let me know. And that is my Juve timer. So I'm now going to switch sides and do a few minutes over here. Yeah, and if you are enjoying them, hit the subscribe, hit the like, share them, leave a comment or something. So at least I know people are watching them. So yeah, that's my book of the week and that's my comments for this week's vlog. Alright, see you guys next time. I'm going to finish up here. Good morning world. So it's another beautiful day in paradise here in New Plymouth. Another great day. It's meant to be summer soon, which is crazy. Just heading down to the shops. It's a supermarket, unfortunately. Try not to go there too often. Try to source our veggies from our own garden or farmers markets and stuff. But unfortunately, Hazookinis haven't grown yet and we need some carrots and some water as well. Rebecca's going to make spaghetti bolognese tonight. So those were on the shopping list. So just heading down to get that. Just looking at my ordering data from my sleep last night. Feeling pretty good today. Slip for 8 and a half hours. 21% of that was deep sleep. 30% REM sleep. 45% light and then check this out. Only 3% awake time. How cool is that? Our local supermarket. Just had to ask. Projects. Rebecca will be happy. Got my water and far too many groceries. So much for just going in for like 2 or 3 things. Always happens, doesn't it? And you say I got ice cream. Sue me. But yeah, now I'm outside and of course it's raining. Don't ever come to New Zealand for the weather. It's horrible. It's a beautiful country. The weather just sucks. Got my shower in for the day. But a bit of news. I got supplements. Let's go see what I got. Let's see what supplements I got. Kalp noodles. Will be good for bag bowls tonight. Magnesium. Turkey tan. Vitamin C. And then more kalp noodles. That's it. So in that previous video someone asked me why I was gardening. Why I was planting all these seedlings out. And no, gardening is not a big hobby of mine. It's slowly becoming a bit of an interest. But it's all about health. I mean health and control. So obviously I'm into health. It's what I do. And the more I learn about food and the way food is grown and what we're eating, the more I realize to be able to control your food sources is so important. It's crazy. Now that I see all this and I see how you can grow your own food and save so much money, I hate spending money on food now. Anyway, that's why I'm getting into the gardening. That's why I'm trying to grow more food. It's control. It's money savings. It's being a little bit more independent and self-reliant and not relying on big supermarkets and everything. And it's just becoming a bit of an interest and a hobby. It's a challenge, right? There's so much I don't know. I've already made mistakes in the garden and it's like, I want to fix it. So that's why I'm gardening. And if you have tips, by the way, let me know because no doubt I'm going to make a lot more mistakes on film as well. So you guys are probably the more advanced gardeners out there probably laughing at themselves. But hopefully that gives you a bit of insight as to why the gardening and the food, growing my own food and all that is coming into these films. It's all about control. Just having control over my health and my body and of course my partners and then my kids when we have kids, hopefully soon. So yeah, that makes sense. So it's finally stopped raining. So I thought it'd be a good time to do a quick garden update. So remember those potatoes are planted a few weeks ago. You can see these ones are coming up pretty good. So these ones, filling it. But you might recall I got some other potatoes from industry and I died. Like, totally just died. I don't really know what happened. Pretty much from the moment we got them they just started suffering. So I topped up the soil, put some extra compost in there. I was watering them. I thought it might have been the heat, you know, because it was on the concrete next to the bricks. I thought it might have been too hot. Put them in the lawns, but yeah, they just died. So I'm going to go in and see how big the potatoes are and hopefully they're big enough to eat. Otherwise, I did notice that we've got a little new growth coming through. So I don't know. I don't know. Maybe if you know, you can tell me what I did wrong. But at least the other ones are going pretty good. Got a few decent sized ones, so not too bad after all. That's what I got out of there. So yeah, pretty happy with that. Some smaller ones in there, but let's check out this puppy. Look at the size of that one. The monster. It's watering snake material. Come check this out, but I noticed this this morning. There's a little baby zucchini coming through. He'll be our first zucchini for this year. So I've had a really bad week for bugs and insects. We went away a week or two ago. Came back and noticed a lot of itchy bites. Rebecca was waking up with itchy bites on her ankle and then I started getting a few and then one morning I was on the floor doing my morning stretches and I noticed a flea on me. I was like, what the hell? Everybody's like, I'll just go get a flea bomb and leave the house for a few hours. God knows what chemicals are in there. It's been a week now and we haven't seen any and Rebecca hasn't had any bites, but I ended up washing the sheets and the mattress, the blankets, pillowcases and everything like that every three or four days. Twice a day for about eight days now. They seem to be gone. But that's not the only problem. We've actually started to get a lot of flies lately. So I've ended up turning into more alternative methods to kill them, which involves my t-shirt and some pretty quick flicks. Maybe if you've got solutions for getting rid of flies and even fleas, drop a comment in there and then notes below. Yeah, life gets hard when you try and avoid the chemicals, huh? Two, three, four. No, I've got to get back to me again, though. I've got a new blender. So if you're wondering why I've got a new blender when I have my trusty blender over here because this is a bus and this is my stick. And as we all know, my stick can make us fat. And if you didn't know that, you should check out my blog, Like many of us, I'm on a budget and I can't go out and buy everything that I want. And this blender was working, so I was just like, whatever, I'll just deal with it. When the time comes, I had some cash, I'll upgrade. And that's what I'm doing. And in fact, this one started smoking the other day as well. So I guess it's definitely time for upgrading. So I think it's a good way to approach health. Don't expect everything to be perfect overnight. But when something dies or breaks, upgrade it and get the healthy video. So I'm going to go make a smoothie. So time of the week, training time. It's already late on Friday. And I just want to switch off. So really quick workout today. I'm going to do a bit of a circuit, strength circuit, I guess. We're going to go deadlifts into clap push-ups into weighted chins into Turkish get-ups. And what I'm going to do is the weights just going to get heavier and heavier. And the reps are going to go down. You know, maybe I'll start with say, 10 each side, 10 deadlifts, 10 clap push-ups, 10 weighted chins, 10 Turkish get-ups each side. And weights will go up. It will get harder and harder. Reps go down. Last round, maybe doing three to five. Probably do four rounds. And that's it.
