Uncut Episode 1: Gamers are next level in brain power How are these gamers so good? Does gaming help with personalities, identities? Can I game too much? Does gaming help me in real life? 

Guest:  John F. Drozd , Ph.D., ABMP. Board Certified Medical Psychologist / Neuroscientist

Co-hosts: Ken Corigliano & Bilal Rana 

Topics we aimed at are: Where the best gamers are from in the world? Do we need a Code of Ethics for eSports? Where is the respect of the game? Can we achieve flow or be in the zone while gaming? What does Rugby have to do with gaming and eSports? 

Co-hosts: Ken Corigliano & Bilal Rana 

Today we talk about our Veteran's Day event.  We have pictures and videos of the skills we saw and do a in-depth analysis of the superhuman capabilities on display.  Congratulations to AFG (Air Force Gaming) who took the Gold Medal at first place. 

Guest: Jason Hill, ex-Army. Runs the VALOR Organization for the Mid-central United States including 700 members. 

Co-hosts: Ken Corigliano & Bilal Rana 

We talk about restraint in the face of adversity. Why most of the time the biggest, toughest acting people have the least self-control. We reveal why being open about the trauma and “dark” times in our life is a sign of strength, as well as being a tough guy who is an advocate of medication, self-actualization, yoga, and mental visualization

Incredible interview! Sam started his world-class career with George Lucas and Lucasarts making games for movies like Star Wars and Mission Impossible.

Inside your own mind to conquer yourself, find yourself, and compete globally with the best.  

Meditate: whole job is to get your mind in the future, but today 

Always someone who has it worse but has more hope, always someone who has had it worse and is happy now.  

Sometimes you have to fake it to make it.  

You should be your own biggest fan.  

Have a goal that you can measure the smallest wins to celebrate.   

Celebrate each win.  

Visualize yourself being and acting what you want as your brain builds the necessary componentry to do it.  

100% expect that house is coming from somewhere.  

When you chase something it runs, when you sit and expect it to come, it comes to you out of curiosity.   

Giving back and serving others is a necessary step to joy and happiness. Find a way to make it a foundation of your life, be ready and willing to sacrifice a major event for a friend or family member who needs you.  

Relax and let what you want come to you. 

• Traveling and gaming during off-times, off-duty, vacation, and holidays 
• Using self-discipline when you're off of your schedule 
• Gaming as a personal solitary event versus group/family/friends fun 
• Family coop (It Takes Two) as an incredible bonding opportunity 
• How do you “train” for gaming like elite athletes train with weights or weighted training—blindfolded, calculated mistakes, difference between being reckless and taking calculating mistakes to put yourself at an intentional disadvantage

More in-depth flow state conversation

What is flow state, ChatGPT answers the question. 

Taking tests in the state of Flow. I know what I know, whatever I don’t know I can’t control. The goal is to not be stressed.  

Sam Glassenburg – med people are in the flow and very curious:

Search for happiness versus joy https://amzn.to/3wbTb3P  

If you have joy and happiness in your life’s calling, the tough times go faster, hit softer, and have more meaning as necessary steps to the future

David Frye 

In gaming, her family plays "value added activities"  

In 2020, the highest earning gamer earned $550,000 in playing online chess. Confidence comes from only one place: Credible Self-Talk. Knowledge, experience, and study all are necessary for credible self-talk. Have a confidence mantra or epic self-talk.  

Mental visualization is the most powerful tool available bar none. 

Bilal: if this is such a powerful thing, why isn’t this taught, why isn’t this a widely known thing? 

Jannell: There has become a stigma about taking a break to do mental well-being and practicing your trait mentally. It’s every career field everywhere. Our youth today are very overscheduled, very taxed part of your day. We start to day dream almost half of our day. But day dreaming is different than mind wandering, tune in tot find out more.

In this episode we talk a lot about how to properly enter the gaming market and “read the room well.” Companies are entering the industry to simply make money and the audience senses this and do not receive them well. The ROI of entering the esports industry is staggering, 1:10; 1:25; 1:30.  

Dr. Drew is a chiropractor at the Cleveland clinic in Cleveland. He is an expert in musculoskeletal disease, ergonomics, hydration, nutrition, a huge gamer, and all around amazing human.  

He loves gaming, he was already in the musculoskeletal area of being a DO. He started to blog and realized that he didn’t know as much as he thought.  

Played N64 as a kid, gaming is #1 in his life.  

Authenticity is important, companies that enter the community without it get crushed. Nutrition items, ergonomic devices (task based chairs). Companies enter in and try to jump on the bandwagon with a game not realizing that the game doesn’t have longevity.  

An excellent episode. Visit his website:
