Transcript
- 0:01Hey everybody, welcome to the good morning from the Chicken
- 0:04Coop podcast. My name is Kim Johnson and I am
- 0:07a mastermind, set coach, creative strategist, and also
- 0:09happen to be a farmer. This is my chicken coop and I
- 0:12come out here every day to record a podcast to teach
- 0:16distinctions, possibilities, new ways of thinking, and just bring
- 0:20some joy into the world. So welcome to the coop and let's
- 0:23start your day off in a fantastic way.
- 0:27Hey everybody, good morning from my studio because I'm standing
- 0:31in here looking at all the things that I wrote on my
- 0:35whiteboard as well as on my big giant sheets of paper as we
- 0:39start planning the new year. Random thoughts, ideas,
- 0:43possibilities, all these papers are labeled all different ways.
- 0:47And as I stated before, this is a process for me.
- 0:50So it's been going on for a couple days because I ended up
- 0:53having a really big burst of creativity on something that I
- 0:56wanted to work on on farm. So I was incorporating that into
- 1:01how I was going to put it over to content for everybody.
- 1:03And it was just really interesting and it took me down
- 1:06a bit of a rabbit hole. So I'm still working on it.
- 1:08Like I said, I'm very fluid for these first couple weeks of
- 1:11January. I'm always very fluid with this.
- 1:14But one of the things that I wanted to talk to you about
- 1:16today, which is why I'm in the studio staring at all this paper
- 1:19is talking about what are the real foundations for like not
- 1:25just doing a good job, but doing an outstanding job.
- 1:28What are those foundations like those pillars that you want to
- 1:31stand upon? And if you want to shift
- 1:35yourself, if you are looking at yourself and you're saying I
- 1:38want this year to be my best year ever, shouldn't that have a
- 1:43little bit to do with not just what you're doing, but who
- 1:45you're being? And when you look at that, you
- 1:49have to recognize there is one very, very big fact that I talk
- 1:52to clients about often. And it's that talent alone
- 1:56doesn't guarantee you're going to hit it out of the park.
- 1:59It doesn't mean you're going to be a success.
- 2:01You, there are some very talented people out there who
- 2:05never make it anywhere. And what is the big inhibitor of
- 2:09them making it somewhere? Well, often times when you do
- 2:13the research on it and you really dig into it, it's the
- 2:16personality of the person. They could be so talented, but
- 2:21their personality throws it completely out the door.
- 2:24They rub people the wrong way. They say things that are
- 2:28offensive and, and, and not thoughtful.
- 2:31They act in ways that don't support the group, if that's if
- 2:37that makes sense, saying it that way, but it's true.
- 2:40They don't support a group, they don't support the group, they
- 2:42don't support what the bigger thing is and they're not forward
- 2:46thinking people. So today, as I'm sitting here
- 2:50looking at some of these things that I have put on my list, it
- 2:53does require that I actually shift some of the skills for
- 2:57myself. Because while I love doing the
- 2:59podcast and I and I love doing all of these things, there are
- 3:03things that I'm not necessarily particularly fond of, which is
- 3:06being on video. I do it, but I don't love doing
- 3:09it. So it's a personality shift for
- 3:11me. It's me sitting there and going
- 3:12well. If I really want to get out
- 3:14there and teach and help people, I have to be willing to be on
- 3:17video more. I have to be willing to promote
- 3:19it. I have to be willing to do these
- 3:21things. And yes, I have acquiesced a
- 3:23little bit. The team has really pushed me to
- 3:25do that at the end of last year. So I am really pushing myself
- 3:32this year to say, okay, I'm I'm going to enjoy this.
- 3:35And I'm in that phrase of like, I'm going to see, I'm still not
- 3:39there yet. Listen to my language, I'm going
- 3:41to, I'm entertaining it in my head.
- 3:44I'm pushing myself for it. But it does require that I shift
- 3:47that identity piece a bit. So I'm looking to really master
- 3:53this portion. And if you're looking for that,
- 3:55you have to say, OK, well, I need to harness this for myself.
- 3:58I want to go in. I'm going to be better at doing
- 4:01these things for myself when I'm on camera.
- 4:04Now I'm using myself as an example, but it this could be
- 4:06anything for you, you have to emphasize the importance of the
- 4:11goal to yourself so that you recognize that this core belief
- 4:14has to transfer over to it. Like you have to have a core
- 4:17belief about yourself that says I'm great on video.
- 4:20I'm great on video. So I'm practicing, I'm walking
- 4:23around, am I like telling myself I'm very good at being fluid in
- 4:27storytelling when I'm doing it this way, what I'm doing with
- 4:30you right now. But if I'm on video, I feel like
- 4:33I have to change. There's something in my head
- 4:35that says, well, I have to show up differently.
- 4:37So I'm setting myself up right now to not feel that way.
- 4:43Not just by having the right equipment, like getting a little
- 4:46one that gimbal that I can walk with so that I can talk to you
- 4:48all, but also talking about the fact that I, I have to be
- 4:53comfortable being on the camera. So this is part of a core that
- 4:58you have to shift. It's an identity shift.
- 5:00If you want it. Now, you don't have to do
- 5:02anything. But if you want to be one of
- 5:04those exceptional success stories, then you have to say,
- 5:07OK, I, I'm willing to work on the parts of me that are weak.
- 5:11And I know this is a weakness for me.
- 5:14So foundations for greatness for this, whatever your goals are,
- 5:20pillar foundational greatness for whatever your 2025 looks
- 5:25like takes place internally first.
- 5:28And how, what parts of your identity do you need to change?
- 5:32All right, my friends, I hope you have a blessed day and I
- 5:36will see you all tomorrow. Bye.
