  Hey. Everybody, welcome to the Good
• 0:03
  Morning from the Chicken Coop podcast.
• 0:05
  My name is Kim Johnson and I am a mastermindset, coach, creative
• 0:08
  strategist, and also happened to be a farmer.
• 0:11
  This is my Chicken coop and I come out here.
• 0:13
  Every day to record a podcast to.
• 0:15
  Teach distinctions, possibilities, new ways of
• 0:18
  thinking, and just bring some joy.
• 0:20
  Into the. World.
• 0:21
  So welcome to the coop and let's start your day off in a
• 0:24
  fantastic way. Hey everybody, good morning.
• 0:29
  OK, today we're going to talk about the fact that every single
• 0:33
  person on this planet has had bouts of saying, I don't know if
• 0:38
  I'm doing the right thing. Everybody, everyone has had it,
• 0:41
  myself included. I can tell you right now there
• 0:44
  have been multiple things that multiple projects that I've
• 0:47
  started and I've said to myself, I don't know if I'm doing the
• 0:49
  right thing. And this podcast is one of them.
• 0:52
  I have multiple clients right now in transition where they're
• 0:56
  like trying to figure out what their next moves are, what they
• 0:58
  want to do, what they want to transition and become, and how
• 1:02
  they want to, you know, take themselves either to the next
• 1:05
  level or maybe it's not even a next level.
• 1:08
  Maybe it's like, hey, I just want to do something different.
• 1:10
  And it's just always part of what we do as human beings.
• 1:16
  It this process of growing and expanding and seeing yourself
• 1:20
  different ways is not bad, my friends.
• 1:22
  It's not about, you know, us staying in the same spot
• 1:27
  forever. It's about being able to
• 1:29
  transform over and over and over again.
• 1:32
  And for, you know, lack of a better way to think of it.
• 1:34
  I mean, in this minute, think chameleon, you've got it.
• 1:37
  You're you're the essence of you.
• 1:39
  Your soul is always that entity and it's going to transform
• 1:43
  multiple times into multiple beautiful things.
• 1:47
  Is the transformation always comfortable?
• 1:49
  Hell no. Let me tell you, that is a hard
• 1:52
  hell no. It is not comfortable.
• 1:54
  I have been pouring into teaching myself how to do video
• 1:59
  and forcing myself to sit still, which, you know, I don't do
• 2:03
  well. Moving is my gig.
• 2:05
  It's my jam. I like to just be moving,
• 2:07
  moving, moving. Anyone who works with me knows
• 2:10
  if you coach with me, I'm going to be walking while I'm talking
• 2:13
  to you because it's when I'm 100% yours, focused.
• 2:17
  My brain is on fire. I like that.
• 2:20
  So to sit down and try to train my brain to do that while I'm
• 2:24
  sitting is really challenging. Now, for years I have done
• 2:29
  design, I've done all kinds of stuff.
• 2:31
  I've written books. How do I do that?
• 2:33
  Well, when I'm designing physical things in my head, like
• 2:37
  if I'm sitting there and I'm coming up with, let's say I'm
• 2:40
  designing a website, I'm scrolling in my head as I'm
• 2:43
  walking. I'll just walk quietly listening
• 2:45
  to music. And in my head I'm seeing that
• 2:48
  happening. I'm I'm working through it.
• 2:51
  Same thing when I'm writing a book, I get get a download in my
• 2:54
  head and I'm just like, and I'm taking notes, I'm talking to my
• 2:58
  phone, but video stuff, I have to sit my ass in that chair.
• 3:03
  I have to sit down and pay attention to it and it is
• 3:07
  excruciating. It's excruciating for me to do
• 3:10
  it. However, it's part of growth.
• 3:12
  It's not comfortable. And if I want to do what I want
• 3:15
  to do, I have to sit there and learn it because I have to be
• 3:19
  able to tell the story. And it's a different form of
• 3:21
  storytelling. So forcing, forcing us to grow,
• 3:26
  forcing us to transform, and all of us go through this process.
• 3:30
  There isn't any of us out there that I have ever encountered
• 3:34
  that have said even the people who are grumpy, even the people
• 3:37
  who I believe their souls came here to be the antagonist, to
• 3:41
  push us to get to the next place.
• 3:43
  And I look at them and I don't hate them.
• 3:45
  I look at them and I say thank you.
• 3:46
  Thank you for making me so much clearer on my own vision because
• 3:50
  of your vision. I love that.
• 3:52
  I love that. But that to me, even those
• 3:56
  people are transforming and and maybe they're upping their level
• 3:59
  of grumpiness. Maybe they're trying to
• 4:01
  transition, maybe they're turning into the Grinch and
• 4:04
  their heart is growing. Who knows?
• 4:05
  But The thing is, everybody's doing it.
• 4:08
  And beating yourself up for that process never helps.
• 4:12
  You know the beatings will continue until morale improves
• 4:14
  is never a good idea. So always important to remember
• 4:18
  the transition is the now. In the meantime, I'm doing this.
• 4:23
  In the meantime I'm, and I keep telling myself I am in the
• 4:26
  meantime with learning this stuff because once I get it, I
• 4:30
  know I will be fast at it. I know I won't have to sit for
• 4:34
  as long as I am right now. I know it won't be as physically
• 4:37
  uncomfortable for me. So it's just a matter of me
• 4:40
  being able to take in the information and telling myself,
• 4:44
  now when you're in this process, I want to just be very clear.
• 4:49
  The process requires that you don't go into it with Ohio.
• 4:53
  My God, this sucks. I got to sit down and do the
• 4:56
  same. Wrong approach.
• 4:59
  I have been going to bed every single night telling myself my
• 5:02
  subconscious mind is learning the software so quickly and my
• 5:06
  fingers are learning the software so quickly.
• 5:10
  For me. I want my fingers to know where
• 5:13
  to go so I don't have to think about that.
• 5:17
  So I'm telling myself that I'm so grateful that my fingers know
• 5:20
  where to go. I'm so grateful that my
• 5:22
  subconscious mind is remembering everything I'm watching in the
• 5:25
  trainings. I'm so grateful that my
• 5:27
  subconscious mind is seeing the video how I want it to be done
• 5:32
  before I start so I'm not stumbling into it.
• 5:35
  So I want to be able to look at a video clip and be able to just
• 5:39
  like see it done. And guess what?
• 5:41
  After about a week and a half, two weeks of, of playing around
• 5:44
  and seeing it and finally finding the right software, I
• 5:47
  didn't find the right software until last week.
• 5:49
  And just in, you know, maybe I'm going to say 6 hours of really
• 5:55
  diving in and not 6, just consecutive, but you know, six
• 5:59
  hours total. Maybe, maybe a little bit
• 6:01
  longer. I forget about how long I did it
• 6:02
  over the weekend, but honestly, my programming, my brain ahead
• 6:08
  of time has helped accelerate the process.
• 6:11
  So if you know you're always going to be in flux and you know
• 6:15
  you have to allow for those transitions because that's part
• 6:18
  of your process, then you can program yourself to make it
• 6:21
  easier. But you got to start that the
• 6:23
  night before. You can't walk in and be like,
• 6:25
  OK, I'm just going to force myself to do it now.
• 6:27
  Oh crap, this sucks. It doesn't matter how great the
• 6:30
  beverage is sitting next to you to try to get you to do it.
• 6:33
  It doesn't. It doesn't matter how good the
• 6:35
  snacks are. It doesn't matter how good the
• 6:36
  location is. What matters is what you tell
• 6:39
  yourself substantially ahead of time and what you take into
• 6:42
  sleep with you so that you can program your brain to think
• 6:45
  about it the right way. So do yourself the favor and
• 6:48
  program your brain the right way and get at it, because
• 6:51
  transition is always going to happen.
• 6:53
  All right, my friends, I hope you have a blessed day and I'll
• 6:55
  see you tomorrow. Bye.
