Jack Panda Speaks

How often do you cook at home for yourself or your family? Homemade food requires time & energy, which nowadays we tend to prioritise for everything but cooking. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Are you willing to commit and make the necessary commitments in order to build something meaningful over time? Are you willing to delay gratification in a world of instant gratification and infinite opportunities? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Everyone is out there either selling a formula or looking for a formula! Today I talk about creating a formula and doing Vs. doing and creating a formula as you go. Why I believe that long term planning and strategies just don't fit with today's fast paced world of exponential change! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Find yourself going from your bed to your smartphone or laptop since you started working from home in 2020? Forgetting to do exercise or even eat sometimes? The virtual world is taking our awareness away from our physical bodies and that could be dangerous. Today I talk about how I came to realise that I was spending days on end absorbed in the virtual world without moving my body, and how discipline and a new routine is getting my physical & mental health back on track!! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Can you feel the crypto-hype recently? The FOMO? That Bitcoin is making people rich and that it's the solution to everything?! Today I share my personal opinion on CryptoCurrency, and address the human naivety related to such a revolutionary technology. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

The 1st digital marketplace for homemade food is what the Sacred Food eShop could become! The vision is clear, and the concept is being proven over time. Today I share my excitement and vision for a platform that could revolutionise the life & health of many. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Today I share the surreal story of how a dream we had and let go of in 2019, suddenly became true out of nowhere. I hope this story can inspire you to dream, let go and trust that life will happen for you in the most unexpected ways. Dream on! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Today we discuss the world's current obsession with scaling infinitely into the virtual world. The market has never been more abundant. The temptation to reach as many people as possible around the world with a product or service has never been bigger. What could be the consequences of scaling too much or too quickly? Standardisation vs Personalisation. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Today I discuss the upsides and downsides of both conventional schooling, and the evermore popular homeschooling due to covid & lockdown. What does homeschooling have to do with transhumanism? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

I was vegan for 3 years, although I reincorporated animal products about a year and a half ago as my body was desperately asking for it, plus I felt very ungrounded. This very ungroundedness of the vegan diet could make it the perfect diet for this digital transition. Tune in and let me explain more... --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

I am finding that the more time I immerse myself in the digital world of instant gratification, the less interested I am to the physical world. So it would make sense if the new generations become indifferent to the natural world. Especially once they cannot only create their own worlds, but also immerse themselves into the very world they have created.

Recently I have felt resistance towards being with other people, as there is no desire to interact or talk about anything, just the longing to be in silence. It is tricky to be with others in silence for most, so I retreat into my selfhood. Time for a Vipassana maybe? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Today I talk about virtual reality, specifically Facebook "Horizon" that has been launched this year 2020. Perfect timing considering the global confinement situation. A 2nd lockdown could be the perfect opportunity for VR to be introduced on a broader scale. At Sacred Food we wish to explore the potential of VR for our business. Virtual Reality Dining is already a thing! --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

I am sure we invented the concept of having a soul, just because we didn't want to come to terms with our ending. Endings are hard, and we would rather believe that our soul lives on after we die. It is comforting for the mind without a doubt. This world was not enough, so we had to go and create a spirit world. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

After a run, swim and a chai in memory of my dear friend Karl, I contemplate how his death will give life to so many people. How developing a relationship with death in today's death-avoiding culture & society, could give your life more meaning, depth & aliveness. I also ponder the idea of one being "ready to die" and what that could imply. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Drop the pressure & anxiety to be something or someone, and allow yourself to detach from everything & everyone to find peace in the nothingness that awaits you. The major barrier for most of us is the fear of aloneness, although when transcended you realise that what you feared was only a human illusion. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

AI will kill us without a doubt, just not in the way people imagine or how dystopian movies depict it. Rather than homo sapies and AI battling it out, it will be more of an evolutionary death. Just like homo sapiens killed off homo erectus, transhumans will kill off homo sapiens. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

I ponder the peace that I feel today after a dear friend of mine passed yesterday. Death really is a reminder of what life is and what we are part of. Death can ignite gratitude, peace and new beginnings. Thank you Karl. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

The sense of guilt that can creep in when you give yourself the freedom to not do in order to allow room for new ideas to emerge! We so often get stuck in the need to be productive and get shit done, but what if this also requires the counterpart of not doing? --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message

Today I had my 1st of many FREE coaching sessions, and I felt the pressure to perform. So many reflections from just one session. It felt like the coaching session coached me too!! This marks the beginning of Jack Panda Listens. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/jackpandaspeaks/message
