  Speaker 1: All right, all right, all.
• 0:04
  Speaker 2: Right, yes, indeed you are the author of your story,
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: of your journal. In this journal, you will get to
• 0:12
  Speaker 2: know yourself better.
• 0:14
  Speaker 3: And who better to get to know dear journal.
• 0:17
  Speaker 2: So Adrian Or finally stops holding us to ransom and
• 0:20
  Speaker 2: what has been a fairly nasty mantra, hold till it hurts,
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: And there has been some hurt. Legacy businesses have folded.
• 0:27
  Speaker 2: Family businesses have gone under, and with it it's broken families.
• 0:31
  Speaker 2: When legacy businesses like Smith and Coey's and SPQR can't survive,
• 0:35
  Speaker 2: you know something's wrong. Then you have to start congratulating
• 0:38
  Speaker 2: the businesses who have stayed afloat and the owners who
• 0:41
  Speaker 2: have fought tooth and nail to keep their staff on
• 0:42
  Speaker 2: the payroll. Owning a business comes with a huge amount
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: of responsibility the livelihood of the people you employ, their
• 0:48
  Speaker 2: futures and their children's futures. And with that responsibility comes
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: sleepless nights. I genuinely hope that this drop in the
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: cash rate is the dawn of a more prosperous time,
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: that business owners can start moving forward and not backwards,
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: that they can sleep a full night knowing that they
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: are finally on the men a time that they will
• 1:04
  Speaker 2: be rewarded for their risk and not exposed by it,
• 1:08
  Speaker 2: and that going forward, the people that pulled the levers
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: learn from the mess they have inflicted upon us. And
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: let's hope that the two point two to five drop
• 1:15
  Speaker 2: is just the beginning.
• 1:16
  Speaker 3: Amen absolutely high journal. Like a lot of Kiwis, I've
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: grown up loving the All Blacks.
• 1:21
  Speaker 4: I've watched games with my dad and my mates and
• 1:23
  Speaker 4: now with my own sons, and I've seen our team
• 1:26
  Speaker 4: win big and accidentally lose big.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: But throughout the years I've remained a fan.
• 1:29
  Speaker 4: While last year's Rugby World Cup lost by one point
• 1:32
  Speaker 4: to a fantastic spring box side and several holdingly bad
• 1:35
  Speaker 4: referee decisions, hurt, I was still waving the black flag
• 1:38
  Speaker 4: with pride, even when a few days ago our team
• 1:40
  Speaker 4: was well and truly beaten by deserving Argentina and pack
• 1:43
  Speaker 4: of Poomas the.
• 1:44
  Speaker 3: Knives came out, the critics were allowed.
• 1:46
  Speaker 4: But whether we're talking about sports or life in general,
• 1:48
  Speaker 4: I reckon we could all learn a lot from Warriors fans.
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: They never give up hope, they always keep the faith.
• 1:53
  Speaker 4: So when our All Blacks run out of Eden Park
• 1:55
  Speaker 4: tomorrow night, I'm still choosing to believe that we can
• 1:57
  Speaker 4: extend the run on that hallow turf to fifty games undefeated.
• 2:01
  Speaker 4: Arnold Schwarzenegger once said, strength does not come from winning
• 2:04
  Speaker 4: your struggles. Develop your strengths, and when you go through
• 2:06
  Speaker 4: hardships and decide not to surrender, that is strength. I
• 2:09
  Speaker 4: can't spell his surname, but I love what he said.
• 2:11
  Speaker 4: And as for all blacks, they'll be back.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Oh Ja, that is.
• 2:15
  Speaker 3: Great, They'll be back. I'll be back. I love. It's
• 2:18
  Speaker 3: quite insulting.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Both you two had very inspiring journals today, and I'm
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: going to carry on that inspirational theme a nice, dear journal.
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: Isn't victory sweeter when your backs are against the war?
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: Inspired by the flurry of gold medals at the Olympic Games,
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: my wee year five netball team full of ten year
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: olds had what was essentially their Olympic final this week,
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: and boy was it a mega challenge just to field
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: a team. One had an air infection, the other was
• 2:45
  Speaker 1: battling the five day fever that's going around. Another took
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: to the court but looked like death warmed up literally.
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: Not only that this particular team we we're playing were
• 2:54
  Speaker 1: really good and they had beaten us the last time
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: we'd played, so we needed to play our absolute best
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: standard chance and against all odds, the Belmont Beers dug
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: deep and came out the gates with gusto. They were
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: leading seven to at quarter time and never relinquished their
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: dominating start.
• 3:09
  Speaker 3: As their coach, I could.
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: Not be proud of the look of surprise and delight
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: on their we faces was magic. It just shows you
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: that with a bit of perseverance, a lot of hard
• 3:19
  Speaker 1: work and practice, some serious focus and determination when it counts,
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: anything is possible. And once again we have Sport to
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: thank for this important life lesson.
• 3:28
  Speaker 4: Yeah, so as we snapshot of our week, hopefully yours
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: has been really good and either way your weekend is
• 3:32
