  Hey everybody, good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:31
  Let's talk about lifting other people up.
• 0:34
  And I'm not talking about going out of your way to do things for
• 0:37
  people that you don't want to do just to get the brownie points.
• 0:42
  I'm talking about that. I'm talking about the small,
• 0:44
  little tiny things throughout the day, throughout the week,
• 0:48
  throughout the month that make people smile and they're
• 0:51
  unexpected. Those little tiny things that I
• 0:55
  consider like real pay it forward moments where you're
• 1:00
  sending out great energy into the universe.
• 1:03
  And by you sending that energy out, you know that's a vibration
• 1:08
  that you're in and that you know, you're sending out those
• 1:11
  rockets, as Esther Hicks loves to, to call it.
• 1:14
  You're sending out the Rockets of something that can come back
• 1:18
  and bring you that energy. That's so great.
• 1:21
  Now you're not doing it to get something, but you're doing it
• 1:24
  to be very thoughtful and lift somebody else up because, you
• 1:30
  know, what goes around comes around.
• 1:31
  That saying didn't just show up by accident.
• 1:34
  What goes around comes around in a big way.
• 1:36
  And the more we focus our attention and intention on
• 1:39
  helping other people feel a certain way, the more we know we
• 1:43
  are going to be better off overall.
• 1:46
  I mean, I love doing those things.
• 1:47
  I love, you know, even when I call, let me give you an
• 1:51
  example. Even when I call and have a
• 1:53
  complaint about something. OK, so Verizon is my phone
• 1:57
  provider and I live in the sticks and we don't have
• 2:02
  Internet out here. So I often I have these little
• 2:07
  bricks, we call them the bricks, but they are basically just a
• 2:10
  way we get mobile Internet and I will often have to have them
• 2:14
  reset or call. And it can be frustrating.
• 2:16
  And when I talk to them, it's so funny because I will often start
• 2:21
  off the conversation. Let's say someone named Sarah
• 2:24
  answers the phone. I'll often say, hey Sarah, I'm
• 2:27
  really hoping you can help me today.
• 2:28
  And I please want to start this off by letting you know my
• 2:31
  frustration is not with you. My frustration is with the
• 2:35
  product and the company. So I just want you to know I'm
• 2:39
  not a happy camper right this minute.
• 2:41
  And then as soon as I say that to them right away, I can feel
• 2:45
  them have that sense of like, OK, like they're, they know I'm
• 2:50
  not going to be mean to them about it.
• 2:52
  Like I've lifted it up. I've actually had people thank
• 2:55
  me at the end of the call saying, I know this sucks.
• 2:57
  And I know that I'm going to do everything I can to help you.
• 3:00
  And I'm sorry you haven't had the service before.
• 3:02
  And thank you for being nice to me.
• 3:04
  And I, I just think to myself, what good is it going to do to
• 3:07
  call and yell at a person I've never spoken to before for a
• 3:10
  situation they have nothing to do with?
• 3:12
  But we forget these people are barraged constantly.
• 3:15
  So you pay it forward a little bit like that.
• 3:17
  You can pay it forward by going in and, you know, buy a coffee
• 3:22
  for somebody in a grocery store or in a donut shop or someplace
• 3:26
  that you are, you know, you let somebody go ahead of you in
• 3:30
  line. I mean, I do that one a lot
• 3:31
  because if I have a lot of groceries, I will essentially
• 3:35
  say to somebody that's got two things behind me, no, no, no.
• 3:38
  You go 1st and they say no, no, no, it's I totally, I'm OK.
• 3:41
  I'm like, yeah, but I got a lot of stuff.
• 3:42
  I'm OK, I can wait. You go first.
• 3:44
  Those little tiny things add up and you don't do them because
• 3:50
  they add up. You do it because it's a
• 3:52
  vibrational match and you go in with the intent of lifting your
• 3:58
  vibrational match each and every day.
• 4:00
  So you have to ask yourself, when's the last time I sent
• 4:03
  someone a random text message just saying, hey, I miss you or
• 4:07
  I hope you're well. I hope your day is going well.
• 4:10
  Or, you know, I was thinking about you this morning and I
• 4:14
  want you to know I love you. Like, all of those little things
• 4:18
  wildly benefit the other people, but they wildly benefit you too.
• 4:22
  So when we forget to do them because we get so caught up in
• 4:26
  our own vortex of wherever we are and whatever we're doing, we
• 4:30
  rob ourselves of the experience of giving and we rob ourselves
• 4:33
  of the experience of feeling good.
• 4:35
  You know, every day I come out and I spoil my chickens with
• 4:38
  something really great for breakfast, whether it's oatmeal
• 4:41
  with chia seeds and bananas or it's shredded zucchinis and, and
• 4:45
  squash with hot Peppers or pasta.
• 4:48
  I always try to find things to give them little treats.
• 4:53
  And I sit there and I say to myself, I just get so much joy
• 4:57
  out of doing this for them. And it's silly.
• 5:00
  But me doing that has really created a relationship with my
• 5:05
  chickens that most people don't have with chickens.
• 5:08
  And one could say, oh, it's all in your head, but really I don't
• 5:12
  think it is. If you saw me with my chickens,
• 5:14
  you'd get what they are with me. So I think it's really important
• 5:17
  to realize that's a vibration I take forward with everybody, all
• 5:20
  my clients, all of you, everything.
• 5:22
  So set the tone for your vibration, be smart about it and
• 5:25
  do it with all the little tiny things that you can do every
• 5:28
  day. And Lord knows if you haven't
• 5:31
  sent your significant other, your spouse a sweet message or
• 5:34
  done something for them kind recently, get off your hiney and
• 5:39
  do something because each of us needs that.
• 5:43
  I hope you guys have a very blessed day and I will see you
• 5:46
  tomorrow. Bye.
