• 0:29
  Good morning from the Can coop. So today we are talking about
• 0:34
  who you admire like who in this world do you sit there and say
• 0:37
  to yourself? Wow, I had really Meyer that
• 0:39
  person. I think that person has it all
• 0:43
  together. The reason we are talking about
• 0:46
  this is because sometimes when we start thinking about what
• 0:50
  other people Are out there that we really admire.
• 0:55
  Sometimes we admire what they get done.
• 0:59
  We don't necessarily admire their character and we rarely
• 1:04
  have the whole picture on this. So I thought it might be
• 1:08
  worthwhile to examine that in yourself and besides just
• 1:12
  looking out, like, who you admire, but do you think someone
• 1:15
  admires you? I mean, gosh, isn't that
• 1:18
  something interesting when someone says?
• 1:19
  Wow, I reg, I think that's awesome.
• 1:21
  Or I think Awesome. I really admire you for all that
• 1:24
  you're doing and this mess and I always say well it's not about
• 1:27
  what you're doing because most of us do lots of things.
• 1:32
  But the real thing is who are we, who are we behind the
• 1:34
  scenes? And I've had the privilege of
• 1:39
  working with some very high-profile people in my career
• 1:44
  and some of them while they got a lot done and they showed up a
• 1:48
  lot out in the face of the world.
• 1:50
  Sometimes, just behind the scenes, you were like Like, yo,
• 1:53
  this is really not good and what made me think of this as I got a
• 1:58
  call today and something was brought up to me and I was like,
• 2:01
  wow, that's really interesting because this is something that,
• 2:04
  you know, this person and I were talking about and she was saying
• 2:07
  how she had admired someone and then she found out something and
• 2:10
  it was really like, just very unappealing to her.
• 2:13
  And we look so hard at people for what they accomplished.
• 2:19
  We're constantly looking at accomplishments But we're not
• 2:23
  looking at who people really are and sure, part of who you really
• 2:27
  are, is your accomplishments. But I'm talking looking at them
• 2:31
  for character. Looking for them choices in the
• 2:34
  moments, really down dirty, taking a hard look at what parts
• 2:40
  of this. Don't I know.
• 2:42
  And why am I giving that so much weight in my world to say that
• 2:46
  they're great when I really don't know how great they are.
• 2:49
  My mother used to have this saying that if you met Met
• 2:52
  somebody, and they didn't like dogs, then she was just never
• 2:56
  going to click with that person. And I used to laugh at that when
• 3:00
  I was a kid because I would be like, really like that.
• 3:02
  Seemed like it was kind of silly, but then, as I got older,
• 3:05
  I started thinking about it and I'm like, well, that really does
• 3:07
  speak to character, doesn't it? Like if you don't like a dog,
• 3:10
  does that speak to character? And then I started, you know,
• 3:12
  being a coach and questioning it.
• 3:14
  Well does that speak to that? Or is that just because I love
• 3:16
  dogs because I have to examine everything six ways to Sunday.
• 3:20
  So you know, For me, personally, I do happen to think that there
• 3:27
  is something to be said for really looking at the character
• 3:30
  of the person as opposed to their accomplishments and there
• 3:34
  are people that we align with and there are people that we
• 3:37
  don't align with. Like for instance years ago when
• 3:41
  I was dating and someone said I don't like dogs will you were
• 3:45
  not my person because I was going to have dogs and I was
• 3:48
  going to have big dogs and I was going to have obviously lots of
• 3:51
  chickens. and I think that sometimes, We don't, we don't
• 3:58
  necessarily ask those poignant deep questions because we're so
• 4:03
  used to just putting our resume out there of accomplishments and
• 4:08
  that resume of accomplishments, is so important in this Society.
• 4:12
  But is it really? So, I could sit there and I
• 4:15
  could talk to you all the time about the stuff that I've gotten
• 4:17
  done and you might not even know who I am as a person.
• 4:22
  And I guess the point of this today is to really make you
• 4:26
  think Who you're spending your time with who you're giving your
• 4:29
  admiration to because you don't want that to be given in a way
• 4:35
  that isn't worthy, you want to give it to people who really
• 4:38
  deserve it. Who people who, you know,
• 4:41
  absolutely. Will I just worthy of it in that
• 4:46
  case and I think that when you start to think about who admires
• 4:51
  you who, you know, who's that person, that's looking up to
• 4:54
  you. Well then Can ask yourself, am I
• 4:57
  being the person that I want them to admire or my being the
• 5:01
  person that I'm ashamed of them admiring?
• 5:05
  You know? Oftentimes, our behavior is not
• 5:10
  something that we're proud of. I know myself, I have, you know,
• 5:14
  a tendency to get really annoyed with stupid things that are just
• 5:19
  absolutely nonsensical and I shouldn't get annoyed with them.
• 5:22
  You know, we've talked about this before where the dishwasher
• 5:25
  little messy. Whatever it is, I'm not proud of
• 5:27
  that. And I talk about it because it's
• 5:30
  still something that bothers me. It's still like if I walk in and
• 5:33
  the counters are cluttered, I get like, ah, why do I have such
• 5:37
  a reaction? I shouldn't it represents the
• 5:40
  people that I love being in the house and I should be calm about
• 5:44
  that. But that this comes back to, you
• 5:46
  know, am I being the person that somebody else could be proud of
• 5:51
  them, right? Being the person that I'm not
• 5:52
  proud of. In this moment.
• 5:53
  I wouldn't want someone else to see it.
• 5:55
  So it's just Just some food for thought today, something for you
• 5:58
  to consider about yourself and about who you're giving your
• 6:01
  attention to. So I hope you all have a very
• 6:04
  blessed day and I will see you all tomorrow.
• 6:08
  Bye. Just some food for thought
• 5:57
  today, something for you to consider about yourself and
• 6:00
  about who you're giving your attention to.
• 6:03
  So I hope you all have a very blessed day and I will see you
• 6:07
  all tomorrow. Bye.
