Deja Wu is not wu wu. It’s not pie in the sky, phony bologna, mumbo jumbo jibberish. It’s practical AF.&nbsp; At its core It is a proven technique that is about re-orienting your mind from whatever state it’s in, to a forward and ahead state when facing a challenge. We call this forward ahead state, the wu state. That’s it in a nutshell.When we say just wu it, we mean quit splashing around in puddles, and go get the frisbee, dog. &nbsp;Wuuuf wuuf. &nbsp;Get up, move forward and go. &nbsp;Be ahead. Get ahead.Easier said than done you say? &nbsp;Sound like every motivational speech since like ever? &nbsp;Maybe so, but before you stop reading, know that &nbsp;Deja Wu is not just a flashy idea, &nbsp;but a &nbsp;reliable hack to lean on whenever you &nbsp;encounter a challenge in your day to day.Let’s talk about the gluttony of excuses to not chase that frisbee. Including not caring a rat’s ass about frisbee-catching in general. (Note at this point that you can Insert anything for the word “frisbee.”) Forget that stuff. &nbsp;Deja Wu is not for those things. &nbsp;It’s for the stuff you DO, want or wish to try, but are held back mentally. You've convinced yourself not to attempt them. &nbsp;You know. &nbsp;like &nbsp;ice baths, or even &nbsp;cold showers. &nbsp;You've heard they are &nbsp; healthy, &nbsp;but you’ve never taken one. &nbsp;Too out of your comfort zone. &nbsp;&nbsp;Deja Wu can help with this thinking. &nbsp; It’s for challenges that you shy away from for whatever reason. Whether they're &nbsp;too uncomfortable, too painful. too icky, too hard. Too whatever.&nbsp;Of all the things that &nbsp;prevent us from throwing our hats into the ring, so to speak, &nbsp;the two that Deja Wu helps the most with are LOW CONFIDENCE and LOW DRIVE. &nbsp;Khan considered these as so insidious to having a good life, that he labeled them the Fu Demons. &nbsp;Deja Wu will exorcise these &nbsp;performance-sapping demons from your mind. &nbsp;&nbsp;Maybe the reason for your non-action in the face of challenge runs deeper. Maybe you do not believe you deserve the frisbee, or the dog bone reward for catching it. &nbsp;Maybe it’s your low self esteem or low self image that stops you before you even consider attacking challenges. You’ve got an incessant she’s “out of your league” voice in your head too often, for too many things. That voice in your head says, “it’s out of my wheelhouse, or ITS JUST NOT ME.” &nbsp;You’ve crafted a static unbending self image for yourself, called an Identity” that does a great job convincing you to stay put. To NOT make waves. To not attack challenges. &nbsp;It’s the “ I’d love to try xyz but you tell yourself you're &nbsp;just not “that guy. ” &nbsp;You’re the “chill guy.” right?&nbsp;But here’s the thing... If deep down inside you wish you WERE &nbsp;“that guy,” Deja Wu is for you. If you’ve previously lacked &nbsp;confidence in your abilities, and shrunk AWAY from challenges, knowing you would’ve loved the reward at the end, &nbsp;Deja Wu is for you. Stop beating yourself up. &nbsp;And keep reading. Deja Wu is gonna change everything for you.Ok, so "how do i try it out?" &nbsp;you ask. &nbsp;You are going to attempt challenges slightly out of your ability but achievable using a new mental orientation called wu mind. You will shift into this mind state, and relinquish all control over it. &nbsp;You will know you are doing it correctly when you feel the “RELEASE,” a relaxation response that has your body feel like it’s on auto pilot. You will be in a self induced “zone.” This technique will become your go-to tool or hack for any challenge. Deja Wu practice involves both entering and sustaining this state in the face of increasingly difficult and longer challenges, ones that require “wu concentration.”&nbsp;Getting back t the frisbee throw, &nbsp;often the path to the frisbee may not be a breeze. There may be 50 mph wind blowing in your face and trees and rocks in your path. But as Deja Wu students, we look at these obstacles in a new light, seeing them as reasons (opportunities) to use and practice our new mindset. And opportunities to develop new confidence for future frisbee catching. if you want the frisbee, don’t use the obstacles as excuses. Just get in wu. Enter the Lair of the Wu Dragon, and fly upon its back. Get in the mindset that treats resisting or distracting forces for what they are… friction on your way to your goal. &nbsp;Goal friction. &nbsp;Khan calls it all “fu.” &nbsp;It is all irrelevant, unless it helps you get to the frisbee faster. (like maybe you can leap off one of the rocks.)You need a mindset to handle fu. One that doesn’t dwell on those things that don’t matter, &nbsp;or worse, &nbsp;impede your progress. A mindset that overcomes inertia when it arises. Wind, cold, trees, rocks. &nbsp;and Internal stuff as well. Discomfort, fear, anxiety. &nbsp;All of it is &nbsp;fu. &nbsp;Fu includes &nbsp;the internal garbage that pops up and &nbsp;causes choking under pressure in sports. &nbsp;Ya know, the yips, twitches, and glitches, little mysterious forces inside you that fuck up your drives, chips and putts. The butterflies that stop you from approaching an attractive stranger at a bar. &nbsp;Instead of becoming one with the butterflies, or flowing with them, fuck them. &nbsp; I mean get rid of them of course, with your new superpower, wu mind Overcome all of the fu, with the simple &nbsp;Deja Wu, and it’s shift and release mind hack. Deja Wu hack. &nbsp;It &nbsp;simply puts you out in front of fu. &nbsp;Shins pushing on you the front of your ski boots.Unlike flow you’ll be pushing forward, sometimes AGAINST nature’s intentions. Maybe you had a bad morning and your expresso machine broke. Or you lost your job, and the mortgage is late. &nbsp;Maybe you found out Kerri Anne Mooney is now dating Dale Booker. Whatever it is that’s going on inside your head, for now, it’s all distractions. Wu is what happens when you get ahead of all of it. Anything that happened before is just that… a thing of the past, and a distraction.So get out there and find a figurative frisbee and focus on getting it fast, and efficiently with the forward and ahead mindset. Wu mind. This is what Deja Wu is all about. Tuning out the fu by getting past it on the radio dial, and get into the wu frequency.Be aware though that looking out TOO far is also a distraction. &nbsp;For now just understand that when you wu, your attention must be just ahead of the present moment, &nbsp;just far enough ahead to put distractions or “fu”. in a mental blind spot. &nbsp;Because the very next moment is so close in time, your mind is easy to trick into believing it is real and it has actually already happened.&nbsp;With Deja Wu we get ahead of fu, and ride &nbsp;the momentum. &nbsp;It results in action that is &nbsp;quick and precise as we , anticipate and &nbsp;predict easily. &nbsp; We leave fu behind, and save &nbsp;mu for later, (after we’ve achieved our goal). &nbsp; We keep our attention focused on moving through, forward, and over resistance toward our goals.If you want to think of it one way, that way is forward.

It’s not ALL about US all the time. With many things there’s nuance and grey area, especially anytime others are involved.But don’t overthink it. You will know when to use wu mind and when to just chill. The time to use it is when you feel that low confidence. fear or doubt start to do the thinking and deciding for you. THAT is when you must not yield to it. And you will no longer. &nbsp;Because now you have a tool to deal with it. &nbsp;The tool is wu. Take it out and use it the next time a challenge arises that is a bit hard. And see what happens. Just shift ahead. &nbsp;Be in the NEXT moment, and try to stay there.
