• 0:29
  From the chicken coop. Poop.
• 0:31
  Okay? Today we are talking next in our
• 0:34
  series. About you get to decide is this
• 0:37
  more important than that? So, in reference to what we're
• 0:41
  talking about that question can be asked at any point in time.
• 0:44
  You can always say, well, is this more important than that,
• 0:47
  is it more important to do the work or hang out with my kids?
• 0:50
  It's a very important delineator as far as I'm concerned in life
• 0:54
  to constantly ask that question because we do as human beings
• 0:58
  have a hierarchy of how we see things.
• 1:00
  And the hierarchy drives us to make decisions in a very
• 1:04
  resourceful way or a nun resourceful way, but you have to
• 1:07
  know them in order to make them work.
• 1:09
  So you can use that question across the board.
• 1:12
  But in reference to this today, is this more important than
• 1:14
  that? One of the most interesting
• 1:16
  parts of when you're creating, you get to decide and you're
• 1:21
  trying to recalibrate to know you are ultimately empowered
• 1:25
  beyond all recognition, you seriously like you really don't
• 1:29
  have any clue until Will you start to get into this?
• 1:32
  There is something to be said for the idea of recognizing how
• 1:37
  much power you have, when you don't let other things in and
• 1:41
  people might say, you're stubborn, you're controlling
• 1:44
  your myopic. Yes.
• 1:46
  That all those may be true but remember two things can be true
• 1:49
  at the same time and you have to make decisions for yourself
• 1:54
  about what is important. And for me this is one of the
• 1:58
  most it just increases Credibly defining steps because it stops
• 2:04
  you from doing things that are stupid.
• 2:06
  Honestly, it really does. And it also allows you to say, I
• 2:11
  have to check in with myself more often about the core values
• 2:17
  that I want to create Within Myself.
• 2:19
  So, from my perspective, I'm going to speak for myself,
• 2:24
  obviously, because that's the easiest things to transfer to
• 2:26
  you guys. Nothing is more important than
• 2:29
  my family. Nothing.
• 2:30
  And nothing is more important than having that ability to care
• 2:36
  for my family and grow food for them, and take care of my
• 2:42
  chickens and my farm and all of that.
• 2:45
  Because by Nature as my husband, really informed me this weekend.
• 2:50
  I am just a nurturer. I love to do that stuff and I
• 2:55
  would have had 75 kids. Honestly, I could have had a ton
• 2:58
  of kids and it just didn't work out.
• 3:00
  That way. So I do it in other ways, plants
• 3:04
  that I find on the side of the road vegetables growing animals
• 3:08
  all over the farm, caring for them and not just caring for
• 3:11
  them in a menial way, but really giving them the best life they
• 3:15
  can have. Because that part of me is more
• 3:19
  important than anything else, caring for my clients, giving
• 3:23
  them that connection to somebody, that will give them
• 3:26
  perspective on themselves without ever being mad at them
• 3:29
  and just helping I'm them understand themselves.
• 3:32
  That is the piece of this without making excuses, but just
• 3:35
  giving them understanding. All of this is so important
• 3:39
  because that is more important to me than anything.
• 3:42
  It's more important than I can. I just can't even explain it.
• 3:47
  That is the highest hierarchy for me, so, I will take it above
• 3:52
  making money. I will take it above traveling,
• 3:55
  I will take it above, you know, even doing things for myself
• 3:59
  sometimes. That is more important than
• 4:02
  anything. And when you start to recognize
• 4:06
  your defining factors, what are the things about you that you
• 4:12
  get to choose? I'm proud of that.
• 4:14
  I'm proud that I'm a nurturer. I am proud that.
• 4:17
  I do not want to put certain things off on to other people
• 4:22
  because it's important for me to be there with my family.
• 4:25
  It's important for me to be able to make my son breakfast
• 4:28
  everyday and I make those choices and I'm doing them
• 4:34
  thoughtfully. So today, I want you to start
• 4:37
  looking at how you measure things up against, what you
• 4:41
  decide for yourself, and how, you know, what, even even going
• 4:46
  to the gym, think about this. So many people will say, to me,
• 4:48
  I don't have time to go to the gym.
• 4:50
  Do you get to decide where your time goes?
• 4:53
  Nobody controls your time. If that, if going to the gym is
• 4:56
  important to you and that is a health is a high priority.
• 5:00
  And you will get your ass out of bed early and go or you will
• 5:04
  finish work and then go, you will make it happen when you
• 5:08
  decide it's important. Apparently the girls all agree
• 5:12
  to because look at this they're really getting going now.
• 5:14
  So the point of this is don't let yourself talk yourself out
• 5:20
  of things by saying and making excuses.
• 5:22
  Don't buy your own bullshit. Stop it is this more important
• 5:26
  than that? Yes.
• 5:27
  Is it more important to be healthy than buying an energy
• 5:30
  drink? Drink.
• 5:31
  Yes. Is it more important to be
• 5:33
  healthy than drinking? Yes.
• 5:36
  Is it more important to be on time?
• 5:39
  So people feel good about seeing you instead of being
• 5:42
  disrespected. Yes, make the decisions that are
• 5:45
  right for you and then see how it changes your life.
