  Into the. World so welcome.
• 0:22
  To the. Coop and let's start your day
• 0:24
  off in a fantastic way. Hey everybody good.
• 0:28
  Morning. OK, so do you think life waits
• 0:32
  till you're ready for something 'cause we were often hear people
• 0:36
  say, well, I wasn't ready for this.
• 0:38
  I I needed more time. I wish I had more time.
• 0:41
  And you know, whether it's having a baby, getting a new
• 0:46
  job, quitting a job, retiring, it doesn't matter what the
• 0:50
  situation is. You hear somebody and they'll
• 0:53
  say, I just need more time to be ready.
• 0:57
  And unfortunately or fortunately, depending upon your
• 1:01
  point of view, life does not allow us to quote UN quote, wait
• 1:06
  until something happens at all. It does not allow that at all.
• 1:10
  What it what happens is it shows up and we have to deal with it
• 1:14
  and we have to figure out what we're going to do with it.
• 1:17
  And for me, what I find so interesting about this is we
• 1:22
  have all this proof that we have succeeded to this point in our
• 1:27
  life. And we've had endless numbers of
• 1:30
  these situations show up, some very small, some very large.
• 1:34
  But when you start thinking about it, they're all there.
• 1:37
  I can remember distinctly sitting and saying in 8th grade
• 1:42
  that I was not ready to graduate and, and go off to high school.
• 1:45
  Like I was like, I'm not ready. I'm not ready to go like I did
• 1:49
  not. I was not looking forward to
• 1:51
  that. And I was so scared at that
• 1:55
  time. I was terrified of the thought
• 1:57
  of going from such a small, small school to a huge school.
• 2:02
  And there was, there was no way to avoid it because you know,
• 2:05
  the next day you wake up, the next day you wake up, the next
• 2:08
  day you wake up and you're going to go.
• 2:10
  And time is marching forward regardless of whether you're
• 2:14
  ready on air quoting or not. And we, we get very tied to
• 2:20
  trying to control things and say that, you know, I need to do XY
• 2:25
  and Z if I had more money, if I had more preparation, if I had a
• 2:31
  better degree. So what is that all about and
• 2:34
  how does it affect us? Well, intrinsically, you can't
• 2:38
  separate yourself from the fact that we're always going to be
• 2:40
  looking at ourselves, especially if you're listening to this
• 2:43
  where you're going to be looking at yourself and measuring and
• 2:46
  trying to see what more could I do?
• 2:48
  How could I be better? Because growth mindset is always
• 2:51
  observing and looking to see, okay, what could be different?
• 2:55
  How could, how could I, you know, expand?
• 2:57
  Because that's what the universe does.
• 2:58
  It constantly expands. It's what we're supposed to be
• 3:00
  doing, constantly expanding. So that that's the nature of it.
• 3:04
  Now take take that for one second, like just put that aside
• 3:08
  for one second, the growth part of it and think about the fact
• 3:11
  that when you're dealing with emotions, we know judgement is
• 3:15
  on our bus. We know that judgement is there
• 3:17
  and trying to protect us by giving us opinions.
• 3:20
  What good, bad or indifferent. We know it's there and it's
• 3:22
  trying to protect us. So then judgement shows up and
• 3:24
  judgement is like looking at us and having an attitude about it
• 3:29
  and trying to help us. Nonetheless, it's still that
• 3:31
  little attitude ridden stuff of saying you're not ready.
• 3:35
  And it's not telling us that to hold us back.
• 3:38
  It's telling us that to be prepared.
• 3:40
  But there's our emotions don't always have all the information
• 3:44
  and the information is there's never a good time and there's
• 3:47
  never a good time to have anything happen right like it.
• 3:53
  It's always in the time it it shows up is when it's supposed
• 3:57
  to show up. And the good time for it to show
• 4:00
  up is when it shows up. And we have to remember that we
• 4:06
  are the ones that are having the opinion of it.
• 4:08
  If we can stop and we can pull back and we can pause and we can
• 4:11
  say, OK, this is happening right now.
• 4:16
  Yes, I have the judgement of the feet and the fear showing up and
• 4:19
  telling me XY and Z, the frustration, whatever that
• 4:22
  emotion is on the moving away emotions, it's showing up.
• 4:27
  And I also know that my emotion can take the situation and shape
• 4:33
  shift it into something much better by me controlling that
• 4:37
  emotion and choosing a different one over it because I don't
• 4:40
  want, you don't want to disrupt your law of attraction pattern.
• 4:43
  If you're in a good one, you want to stay in it and you want
• 4:46
  to keep those emotions under control and you want to keep
• 4:48
  them moving forward in the right way.
• 4:50
  You do not want to entertain having that other piece show up.
• 4:55
  So you have to pause and really shift that emotion.
• 4:59
  Really tell yourself, OK, we are not going there, we are not
• 5:03
  going there. And when you do that, you put
• 5:07
  the pin in it. So it's the stop.
• 5:09
  Then you go to the place of, OK, what emotion would be better?
• 5:12
  And this is where the seeing it as if it's already done comes
• 5:16
  in. Pause and say, OK, I want my
• 5:19
  future pacing self to sit there and vision it as if it's already
• 5:23
  done, that it's happened the way I want it to happen and then
• 5:25
  just feel it that way. Now, is this hard?
• 5:28
  Yes. But the reality is that we have
• 5:31
  to go back to there's never a good time.
• 5:34
  And you have to keep telling yourself, well, there'd never be
• 5:36
  a good time for this to happen. And then you go into, well, then
• 5:39
  why? And that shows you're still in
• 5:40
  the wrong emotion. It's always about being able to
• 5:45
  bring ourselves back around, acknowledging that, well, how
• 5:51
  would, how would there ever be a good time for something to
• 5:53
  happen? You know, you have just enough
• 5:55
  money in the bank, but then as soon as you change that, you get
• 5:58
  to that number, you're going to have it expand and grow even
• 6:00
  more. You have the right amount of
• 6:03
  time on your hands. And then all of a sudden, you
• 6:05
  know, you've got time and then you start putting other things
• 6:07
  in the way. And before you know it, that
• 6:08
  time's moved on. So because we move that it's a
• 6:12
  moving target because we have all of this.
• 6:15
  It's, it's constant evolution. So accepting the constant
• 6:19
  evolution is what's important. It's what's really important my
• 6:22
  friends. So remember, stop and pause,
• 6:26
  redirect it and just realize now is the perfect time.
• 6:30
  I hope you guys have a blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
• 6:33
  Bye.
