84) ATTENTION IS CURRENCY: HOW TO STOP COMPLAINING, RECLAIM YOUR ENERGY, AND REWRITE YOUR LIFE WITH JORGE PEREZ

When you change what you feed your attention, you change your life. Julio Gaggia sits down with author and creator Jorge Perez to unpack how focus, language, and perspective shape our reality—plus the origin story behind his book “The Shut the F* Up Method.”** We cover the art of non-complaint, why negativity spreads in groups, and how to redirect energy toward growth, relationships, and purpose (including hard chapters like grief, identity shifts, and IVF journeys).

Author Jorge Perez joins Julio Gaggia to break down The Shut the F** Up Method*: how silence, focus, and attention can reshape stress, relationships, and creativity. A masterclass on energy, grief, and reinvention.

You’ll learn:

  • Why where you put attention, energy grows—and how to audit yours in 5 minutes

  • The non-complaint protocol to stop feeding negativity at work, home, and in community

  • Perspective tools for grief, reinvention, and identity (without toxic positivity)

  • Desire vs. attachment: how clutching repels outcomes (career, love, IVF hopes)

  • A simple writing ritual to turn frustration into a book-worthy insight

Power quotes:
“Life sucks if we focus on that.” • “Life is great if we put attention there.” • “Where you put your attention, energy grows.”
