• 0:04
  Coop podcast. My name is Kim Johnson and I am

  a mastermindset coach, creative strategist, and also happened to
• 0:10
  be a farmer. This is my chicken coop and I
• 0:12
  come out here every day to record a podcast to teach
• 0:16
  distinctions, possibilities, new ways of thinking, and just bring
• 0:20
  some joy into the world. So welcome to the coop and let's
• 0:23
  start your day off in a fantastic way.
• 0:27
  Hey everybody, good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  I want to remind all of you that we are bundles of energy and I
• 0:38
  want to make it a very big point that you constantly have choices
• 0:43
  of where you want to put your energy to, where you want to
• 0:46
  direct it, where you want it to go.
• 0:48
  And one of the most important things to remember is that you
• 0:51
  can direct it and you can use it to worry.
• 0:54
  You can use it to complain, you can use it to be depressed, you
• 0:59
  can use it for sadness. You can use it for all those
• 1:02
  things that you don't like to have in your world, or you can
• 1:07
  use it to believe and enjoy and create and heal and expand and
• 1:13
  sparkle and grow and all the things you want.
• 1:18
  You have those choices. The reminder really comes in
• 1:23
  that one. It's a choice like I just said.
• 1:26
  But the real thing is it doesn't have to be all day every day.
• 1:29
  It doesn't have to be perfect. And I think that so often we are
• 1:35
  drilled into believing that there that we have to do it and
• 1:37
  it must be the whole day. And it it doesn't have to be
• 1:41
  that way. It doesn't, it doesn't have to
• 1:43
  be every second of every day in order to, to achieve success
• 1:46
  with it. I will be the first one to admit
• 1:48
  that I could never hold a thought, a consistent thought,
• 1:53
  for the entire time I'm awake. I just couldn't.
• 1:56
  I couldn't do it. Like if you said to me, I want
• 1:58
  you to focus on this one thing for the next 14 hours, it would
• 2:04
  never work for me. My brain is far too busy and all
• 2:08
  over the place for that. It's not about having one
• 2:11
  isolated, consistent path, It's about being able to understand
• 2:17
  what path you're on and redirect it as you need to and pull
• 2:21
  yourself out of feeling those things.
• 2:24
  When you are having that experience and you don't want to
• 2:27
  have that experience, it's much more important to be able to
• 2:30
  recover than it is to just say I've got to stay here and be
• 2:34
  unrealistic and know that as a human being, you fluctuate very
• 2:39
  much. You fluctuate.
• 2:41
  So if you watch, if you've ever seen an EKG of a heart, it's up
• 2:44
  and down, up and down, up and down, up and down.
• 2:46
  But that's how our emotions are. That's how we are.
• 2:49
  That's just how we are as a person.
• 2:51
  I mean, I have the last few days with a dog having his surgery
• 2:55
  and trying to keep him quiet, which is next to impossible.
• 2:58
  My friends and having him be so drugged up, he's walking around
• 3:04
  like Spicoli from Fast Times at Ridgemont High and he's banging
• 3:09
  into things and trying to keep him quiet.
• 3:11
  There are moments when I'm completely, you know,
• 3:14
  compassionate about it. There are moments when I'm
• 3:16
  frustrated. There are moments when I'm
• 3:18
  concerned and worried. I mean, you take your pick.
• 3:22
  They're all over the place. So the the main port important
• 3:27
  part of this is to recognize it doesn't have to be consistent or
• 3:31
  perfect or any of the above. What it just has to be is work
• 3:34
  done and achieving that consistently.
• 3:37
  You have the the part that where you can really grill it and
• 3:41
  drill it into your head and grill yourself on it is am I
• 3:45
  focusing on the fact that I have a choice?
• 3:48
  That is the key understanding you have a choice.
• 3:53
  Apparently he agrees with me on this.
• 3:55
  That was Hulk Hogan, by the way. You have a choice.
• 3:58
  And if you pay attention to the choice, then you're going to
• 4:02
  feel more successful because you're like, OK, I remembered I
• 4:05
  have a choice. I can choose.
• 4:07
  I can choose what I want to put my direction and my focus and my
• 4:11
  energy to. I don't have to stay stuck.
• 4:15
  But understanding that it's going to fluctuate, it's just
• 4:18
  part of the process, 100% part of the process.
• 4:23
  So think about it this way. When you recognize it, when you
• 4:27
  start feeling the emotion, that's off.
• 4:29
  First thing you do OK, I have a choice.
• 4:32
  What do I want to choose? What do I want to focus my
• 4:35
  direction on? What do I want to feel?
• 4:38
  Asking that question of how do I want to feel?
• 4:40
  What do I want to feel is a very great beginning all the time.
• 4:46
  You just have to be willing to do it and be willing to take a
• 4:49
  pause and stop and make a choice to go in that direction.
• 4:52
  So the point of today is to recognize it's all about choices
• 4:57
  and your energy can be directed in the choice direction you want
• 5:00
  to go as long as you work on the awareness.
• 5:03
  All right, my friends, I hope you have a blessed day and I
• 5:05
  hope your energy is sparkling and blessed, and I will see you
• 5:10
  all tomorrow. Bye.
