• 0:28
  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  My My happy place today. We are talking about how you are
• 0:36
  your best chance. So it's a pretty big comment to
• 0:41
  say your your best chance. However you are your best chance
• 0:45
  when it comes to being the front gate, keeper of what happens
• 0:49
  inside your head, nothing is more important than what you
• 0:53
  believe, what you think, what you cultivate, what you focus on
• 0:57
  and keeping your positive and negative.
• 1:00
  Of thoughts in check. You are your best chance.
• 1:04
  You can't rely on anybody else. But yourself, whatever, you
• 1:09
  water, whatever, you cultivate, whatever you work on, is what's
• 1:13
  going to grow? And there is no two ways about
• 1:17
  it. You cannot get by it, you cannot
• 1:19
  deny it and you have to just focus on it.
• 1:23
  So, oftentimes when you come to a place where it's the weekend
• 1:29
  and you're taking a break, And you decide?
• 1:31
  Okay, I need a break. I've worked so hard all week.
• 1:33
  Long, you sit down. You take that break.
• 1:36
  And all of a sudden. Your head is spinning, and you
• 1:38
  can't stop it. I was like, oh no, this is
• 1:41
  terrible. I can never relax.
• 1:42
  I can never relax, you know, you can relax.
• 1:45
  You just don't cultivate relaxing thoughts.
• 1:47
  You don't cultivate a relaxing mindset, so you can never get to
• 1:51
  it when you want to, unless you actually access it regularly
• 1:56
  putting yourself in that place, really cultivating The Habit.
• 2:00
  Of it. So when Monday comes to money,
• 2:03
  obviously, today is Monday as I'm recording this for you guys.
• 2:07
  So, this is one of those times where it's like, okay, you have
• 2:11
  got to be on point with saying, Monday.
• 2:14
  It's awful. Mondays are always chaotic.
• 2:16
  Mondays are always crazy. Mine are not always crazy.
• 2:20
  There are sometimes when they are, obviously, you can't help
• 2:24
  certain things. But here's here's the thing
• 2:27
  because I cultivate that mindset That allows me to stay calm
• 2:32
  because I work on that because I put my effort into those things.
• 2:37
  I have a strong possibility of being able to pull on it.
• 2:43
  Notice I use the word possibility because nothing's
• 2:45
  definite in ahead. We all know our minds are like
• 2:49
  the Wild Wild West. So we have to do the work in
• 2:51
  order to make sure they're okay. And again, we are our best
• 2:55
  chance. We are our best chance.
• 2:57
  Not something else. Not anything.
• 3:00
  That you can come up with we in our own microcosm, in our own,
• 3:06
  you know, bag of bones body, we are our best chance.
• 3:11
  So what you need to focus on is the fact that when these times
• 3:15
  come around the Monday's or The Saturdays and Sundays when you
• 3:19
  can't relax and there's a stressful day because nothing's
• 3:22
  really happening. But it's all in your head.
• 3:24
  You have to do the work and make it so that the odds are in your
• 3:28
  favor when you want to call on. The make it so that when the
• 3:31
  odds are there you can pull out and say, yeah I actually can see
• 3:37
  the light through the, you know, the tunnel, so to speak and I'm
• 3:41
  the light at the end of the tunnel.
• 3:42
  And so you're going to be able to say I can stop this from
• 3:44
  going on in my head because nothing's worse than having that
• 3:47
  amount of Chaos in your head. There is absolutely nothing
• 3:50
  that's more uncomfortable than having that and no and feeling
• 3:53
  like you can't stop it. But ultimately I will tell you.
• 3:57
  I've been there. I've been in the darkest of dark
• 3:59
  places with this. Stuff and anxiety just riddling.
• 4:03
  My body, not even being able to open my eyes as a teenager lying
• 4:07
  on the couch. And just saying, oh, I keep
• 4:09
  having these anxiety attacks. Every time I open my eyes and
• 4:12
  being overwhelmed with them and the worst part of that was
• 4:16
  feeling the isolation of what I was telling myself over and over
• 4:20
  and over was the talk of the anxiety attack, not the talk of
• 4:24
  the solution. So once I started talking
• 4:27
  Solutions in my head, once I started talking calm, once I
• 4:30
  Started focusing on that. I cultivated that.
• 4:34
  And that's what I'm talking about.
• 4:36
  My best chance was me, my best chance was not going to the
• 4:40
  hospital. Again, my best chance was not
• 4:42
  sitting and talking about, you know, the racing heart and all
• 4:46
  of that we already knew, it wasn't something that was going
• 4:49
  to kill me. What we knew was I was having
• 4:51
  anxiety. So my at that point my best
• 4:54
  chance is to make sure that I am focused holy on keeping my head
• 5:00
  clean and clear and straight. So I'm going to challenge you
• 5:04
  guys to work on that. Be your best chance.
• 5:08
  Focus on what you're cultivating.
• 5:10
  Keep your head clear and know you you are in control and you
• 5:16
  the you who's you is in control, you get to decide.
• 5:20
  So Choose Wisely, my friends. Alright, I hope you have a
• 5:23
  blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
• 5:25
  Bye.
