Uncertainty

&
Authentic Creativity
Noah just dropped the latest Synchronicity Playlist. These playlists are good for remembering who you are. If one were to take psychedelics and listen to these, there's a good chance fun stuff will happen...You get it.
Transitions // Stuckness // Money (7:17)
Noah and Bill burrow into the current vibe of,
Being Stuck
in this
Transitional Stage
of
Forced Pattern Change
When the lockdown started, it was a little break.
This it is now at the point that there are severe impacts,
It’s no longer just an opportunity to create, have fun, and take a break.
This is because it’s also trying to get people to refocus on what they should be doing.
Bill is feeling the economic pressure of the lockdown,
While moving from Berlin to Brooklyn,
While the country is in civil unrest.
Lot’s of uncertain energies.
With focus on:
Money.
Overcoming Uncertainty (13:13)
Uncertainty starts to weigh.
You try to stay positive.
But don’t want to sit around waiting.
This is the classic balanced line between:Expecting good things to happen
&
Not being to lax
When Noah started sharing the Imaginal Techniques,
He got a lot of pushback from artist friends who said,“Yeah, but then you gotta do the thing...”
Ex.) You can’t just imagine an album.
You also have to physically record it.
Right now in the world, people need to survive: It’s about the money
What Noah did:
He imagined the feeling of having money.
He felt, internally, like he comfortably had enough.
When he started that,
Weirder and weirder means of money started finding his bank account.
You latch on to what it felt like when you were abundant.
Really Feel & Believe That
Regardless of event // circumstance // external reality
Lock onto the assumption of abundance.
Test it.
Test it. Test it.
Test it.
For real.
This is how you
Overcome Uncertainty.
Atypical Opportunities (16:40)
Reality is breaking down,
Systems are going bonkers.
If you can remember that
You Are Generating Reality
Within Yourself
You Are Generating:
Luck // Wealth // Fortune // Harmony // Love
Then
Times of Uncertainty
can be times of:
Opportunity
“I find these times to be the most valuable in terms of opportunities, because shit doesn’t get more atypical than what we’re in right now.” - Noah
Summon From Within (18:42)
Regardless of what it is we think will make us feel
Secure // Stable // Good,
for a static period of time,
It never comes from external circumstances first.
External can help nudge you there.
But an internal sense of
Peace // Comfort // Harmony
Must be Summoned first from within.
Then let external reality catch up.
Expect ridiculous shit.
For real.
...Synchronicity, Coincidence, Deja Vu…
That’s us catching on to what's always happening
Regardless of time.

Evangelizing Ayahuasca Visions (20:30)
Bill humbly tries to save the listeners from ‘enduring’ another ayahuasca trip tale, but doesn’t realize he’s on Synchronicity and that 99% of the listeners are honestly super down for it.
But it’s important not to evangelize.
Not every profound mystical experience has to be shared.
Certain intimate things can simply be internally valuable.
“There’s two things I despised: Someone talking about their dreams, and someone talking about their ayahuasca trip. The ayahuasca trip, I knew how powerful and profound, but once someone gets you in a corner and they start talking about their ayahuasca trip, forget it...” - Bill Patrick
Through the ayahuasca experience; though, Bill is more open to things like Manifestation, Imagination, Dreams.
Navigating Reality’s Breakdown (22:22)
Reality has been breaking down for a while.
People’s beliefs and structures
were shaping a system
that was inevitably going to break down.
Maybe all of this is breaking down while you’re still trying to create your life.
So...
What’s the next step?
Honesty
as a Skill
Honesty
as a Commodity
Don’t take yourself too seriously.
“You have to know how to take the piss out of yourself because we’re living in a world where there is so much tension, everyone is so uptight, and everyone is taking themselves way too seriously, especially on the internet. If you can take the piss out of yourself, make fun of yourself, and understand that at the end of the day we’re all idiots and we’re all trying to get through the best we can, I think that’s definitely more relatable.” - Bill Patrick
“I worked behind the scenes with a lot of spiritual people...They’re very nice people generally, but you see the same type of behaviour that you would see from any normal human being, like sometimes they’re a little greedy, catty, or defensive - just regular shit that people go through. But then there’s this persona that’s projected out into the world of ‘not having those’ or paying them lipservice - these foibles of being a person. That is getting more and more exposed. That’s why I think influence culture is collapsing because people are tired of seeing artificial personas being presented, and people genuinely just want to hear regular shit.” - Noah
What Do You Want To Do? (29:40)
Focus on what you want to be doing.
Focus on the things you like.
When you find yourself in situations where you aren’t doing as well,
Look at the circumstances,
Are you fighting it?
Is there another lesson to be learned?
Usually,
If you start assuming the situation is for the best,
Even if it’s in times where you feel
Stuck,
As soon as you start to accept it,
It turns around really quickly.
It’s like a trick.
Everytime you think: “I don’t know what I want to do. I can’t figure it out.”
Catch Yourself
& Switch It.
Think Instead: ‘How did I figure it out?’
Switch the Syntax.
Switch the verbiage.
Switch the tense.
Solve the problem.
Live from the state that it already happened.
Assume you hit the home run.
Accept it’s inevitability.

Imaginal Flow // Tones of Reality // Accepting the Improbable (32:32)
When you’re going to sleep at night,
It’s also good if you’re high, drunk, or horsin’ around
You want a loosened state of consciousness,
Where you’re more accepting of things.
Right before sleep is good.
Unwinding your mind.
In that state:
...You Imagine...
You see in your
Mind’s Eye
From within your own perspective,
Something that you really want.
It could be some mystical inner-peace & enlightenment
Or it could be twenty thousand dollars.
There’s no judgement.
Imagine within yourself,
The feeling of what it would feel like,
Not the thing itself,
But the feeling of what it would feel like,
If you were telling someone,
Or doing something,
That implies that it already happened.
Give your Imaginal Scene the
Tones of Reality
Make it simple. Something quick.
Five seconds or less
Creating/hearing a phrase // validation.
Feel this & Replay this as you drift off to sleep.
You don’t need to take any external action.
Allow it to be magical and improbable.
“In my experience, regardless of the size of the thing you’re summoning forth for yourself, some shit happens because it’s this liminal boundary between going-to-sleep and sleep. It’s directly talking to your subconscious. It picks up that thought, and then things start to happen in your life that conspire to make it happen.” - Noah
Manifest.
Accept the Implications.
Liberate Yourself & Others.
Let the genie out of the bottle. Impregnate your subconscious and summon up your wildest dreams with the Imaginal Techniques Megamix; your condensed, digitized source for imaginally manifesting your reality.
The $97 Dollar Love Dynamics Test (40:45)
Deniz makes an appearance to tease a $97 dollar test to tell Bill his personality type.
Are you a:
Creator? Star? Mechanic? Lord? Dealmaker? Accumulator? Supporter?
For specifically $97 you can find out!
This gives Bill the idea to develop $97 tests to make good money.
See…Halfway into the episode: Problem Solved.
Real Weed Talk (42:42)
The conversation softly meanders its way to the steady bassline of all great and glorious things cannabis. Bill digs into his relationship with the plant in its various forms and tells a super funny edible story.
See where 30 mg deep with no tolerance takes you.
Hint: It involves Whole Foods, hot sauce, and 6 hours of Bob Dylan.
Noah takes the opportunity to go inside and talk deeply about his relationship with weed, explaining a period where he had to decide if it was a functional part of his life. “I find the aspects of paranoia, fear, uncertainness; I feel like those, when you push through them and understand they are usually in your head - you get to, not only a pleasurable state on weed, but you carry it with you. I find it to loosen the directional constraints of the mind. So, when you get familiar with it, high doses of edibles even get very coasty.” - Noah

Maintaining Manifestation (50:00)
Maintain what you definitely want,
An experience you want,
A feeling you want to feel.
Assume it will definitely happen.
Have an expectation despite external circumstances.
Maintain.
And things will straighten towards the destination.
This will teach you much more than if things are going good.
Uncertainty is to teach you your power.
“In the moment where even if something manifests, it’s important to be dedicated to that feeling, because it could just happen that day, and if you don’t keep riding with it, then the next day you just go back to your default. You have to keep it active.” - Deniz
Persistence.
Expanding Fun (54:15)
Many people don’t actually enjoy fun.
In your life: Make fun a priority.
Surround yourself with people who make fun a priority.
Uncertainty doesn’t mean no fun.
We don’t know how any of this shit will play out...
So…
“Choose the fun route when in doubt.” - Noah
Expand your idea of Fun
When you do that:
You have a better platform,
A broader spectrum of things you enjoy,
Can go into more experiences and not definite it based on your idea of fun.
“If you have a pretty clear idea of the shit you like to do in life, regardless of what it is, and you’re clear about those types of things, and accept them into your life - I think you’ll find there are people who, regardless of the activities you’re doing, are ready to have fun, who are ready to actively prioritize that in life no matter what responsibilities or things they have to do” - Noah
No matter the external circumstances: Make fun a priority. Learn how to get in the fun flow during dire times with Noah, Sean, & Cass, as they talk ketamine and dead people in the Vortex of Opportunity
Relevancy, Judgement, & Success (104:01)
Noah and Bill get into nitty gritty of today’s culture of relevancy, and the constant impending judgement on the path to success.
“It’s a product of being in an industry where you’re constantly being judged, and your success is based on your relevancy, and being relevant is the worst… It’s incredible because once you start losing relevance, that’s a very important part of growth, of understanding yourself, of understanding what is really important.” - Bill Patrick
Springboard of Desire // Feeding Scripts (121:01)
Your Desire is the Springboard
If you apply this shit,
You will put yourself on a track,
Where you execute that script.
It’s feeding ourselves scripts that we run.
It’s just that,
Most of the time we are not catching on to what we actually believe
or
We are basing them on external circumstances.
Feed Yourself the Script You Want To Run
Future Projecting Past Feelings (135:55)
Rollin’ out of the late-in-the-game pee-break, Noah and Bill put the finishing touches on this audio-based manifestation guide-light.
“If you can remember a time where you actually were comfortable, and just felt good, even if it was a fleeting period of time, if you can just future project that into your life and assume that it’s coming, you’d be surprised how often you slip into it naturally. - Noah
Watch what you’re thinking and feeling.
Change it in the moment.
Do the technique before bed.
Do the technique while daydreaming.
Assume the feeling.
Imagine & Manifest.
