- 0:23chickens. Hey everybody.
- 0:28Good morning from the very cold chicken Poop telling you a
- 0:32little over the cold weather. It's just not my thing anymore
- 0:35in life. So reason I moved to the South,
- 0:39okay, today's question, the big question of the day, number six,
- 0:45is how much time do you actually take for yourself?
- 0:51I mean, I think that that's a very fair question for all of us
- 0:54to be looking at and we're more contemplating.
- 0:57What we want to make happen in the year.
- 0:58Coming up, we have to look at If we are doing the things that we
- 1:02need to do for ourselves, I'll be taking the time that we need
- 1:05to in order to better ourselves rest, eat healthy.
- 1:12Go to the gym, you know, be creative spend time reading.
- 1:17Just spend time quiet, just spend time sitting somewhere.
- 1:21I mean, my goodness. I know myself.
- 1:24This is one of those things where I often have to remind
- 1:27myself over and over and over again, that I need to take.
- 1:30The time in order to be better for all the people that I work
- 1:36with all of you, everything that I do is predicated on the
- 1:40quality of time that I'd take to take care of myself.
- 1:43And so, when I feel guilty, if I want to go and take a break or
- 1:47spend an hour reading, or doing a classroom myself, like
- 1:51actually attending a class for myself, I'll say, oh, I don't
- 1:54have the time and instantaneously the second I
- 1:57hear that I know. Well, that's just the most
- 1:59asinine thing that I've ever. I said to myself in the last
- 2:02time, you know, hour or so because it's ridiculous.
- 2:05I mean, taking the time for yourself is essential if you
- 2:10want others to take the time for you because if you're not
- 2:13willing to take the time for yourself who's going to be
- 2:16willing to take the time for you.
- 2:17So you've got to put a put a example in the into the world
- 2:23that says Hey listen I'm I'm valuable to myself I know I have
- 2:28to take care of myself and And I'm not talking about doing this
- 2:32in an ostentatious way and going out there and shouting out to
- 2:35the to the Stars. Hey, look, what I do for me,
- 2:38Dada. I mean, you know, bragging about
- 2:40that stuff I don't feel as ever a good thing to do.
- 2:43I feel like you just have to live in that quiet contemplative
- 2:47state where you are working on yourself, constantly, always,
- 2:53bettering yourself, always getting to a an upper-level
- 2:56point and at the same time making sure that you are
- 2:59focused. On the care of yourself because
- 3:02if you don't care for yourself, there is no way that you are
- 3:06going to feel good about going out and doing anything in the
- 3:09world. You'll become resentful of every
- 3:11dish. You have to wash every.
- 3:13Every client you have to speak to every phone that has to be
- 3:16answered. Every document that has to be
- 3:18written. It doesn't matter what you do
- 3:20and who you are, you will become resentful.
- 3:22When you don't take the time for yourself and I had a client
- 3:26asked me the other day. She said, do you think it's
- 3:27selfish that? I just every Friday.
- 3:29I just like to buy I myself a really nice bottle of wine and
- 3:32sit down and read and drink a glass of really nice wine and I
- 3:35was like, absolutely not. I think if that's something that
- 3:38fills you up and it is not hurting anybody else in this
- 3:41world or you, then you do it because that's what's going to
- 3:44make the difference for you. That's what's going to put you
- 3:47at a different level and and put you in a position of being a
- 3:51happier person. And that's what this is all
- 3:53about. Getting you into a position of
- 3:55being a happier consistently happy person because when you
- 3:59are a consistent, Happy person, things start to change your
- 4:03energy changes, everything starts to work better and be
- 4:06more in sync. You know, the synchronicities
- 4:10start to happen because you're putting the right things out
- 4:13there. So that's the big question of
- 4:15the day. My friends.
- 4:16That's what you have to ask yourself, you know, you have to
- 4:19be, am I giving myself the time? I need to be, you know, focused
- 4:25on myself and my giving myself time.
- 4:27Am I sharing what I need to for myself?
- 4:30So, I hope you guys sake a serious serious.
- 4:33Look at this, and I'm going to take my Frozen face inside now
- 4:37and the girls seem to be quite happy, no matter what I guess.
- 4:40There's an advantage to having feathers.
- 4:42So I hope you guys have a blessed day and I will see you
- 4:45tomorrow where I'm hoping it's going to be warmer.
- 4:49Have a great day everybody. Bye.
