- 0:00Speaker 1: Hey, I've got an invitation for you to visiit Aero
- 0:02Speaker 1: dot net, aarr oe dot net. It's not just a podcast,
- 0:07Speaker 1: it is a podcast network, twenty different podcasts to choose from.
- 0:11Speaker 1: One of the biggest and most popular. Something our parents
- 0:15Speaker 1: would say, you know how they did it right out
- 0:17Speaker 1: of nowhere. They would say something, and you were stuck,
- 0:20Speaker 1: going what what? Something? Our parents would say. It's such
- 0:26Speaker 1: a valuable tool even today only on ero dot net,
- 0:30Speaker 1: rre dot net. Enjoy your exploration. I call it stream thinking.
- 0:36Speaker 1: It's learning how to trust what is in your present
- 0:38Speaker 1: place of right now. And a lot of people are going, I,
- 0:41Speaker 1: I don't know what you're talking about. That seems like
- 0:43Speaker 1: way too much work. Well, that's the reason why you
- 0:45Speaker 1: practice it. One sheet of paper every day, just ten minutes.
- 0:49Speaker 1: You write about whatever is moving through your present place
- 0:52Speaker 1: of right now. If somebody farted in the room, write
- 0:55Speaker 1: about it. Man, tell me what's going through your mind,
- 0:58Speaker 1: your heart, your nose, your laughter, that's inside. But you
- 1:01Speaker 1: don't want to get caught doing that, You see what
- 1:02Speaker 1: I mean? Just write about what is going on in
- 1:04Speaker 1: your present place of now without any type of judgment.
- 1:08Speaker 1: Stream thinking is going to sharpen your skills as a listener,
- 1:11Speaker 1: as a communicator, and as an activator. And let me
- 1:14Speaker 1: tell you something, when you've got those three things on
- 1:17Speaker 1: your team, you are going to be a leader in
- 1:20Speaker 1: your community, because that's what it's all about, the physical
- 1:24Speaker 1: act of listening. But if you don't know how to listen,
- 1:26Speaker 1: I don't expect you to lead. I really don't learning
- 1:29Speaker 1: how to trust what is in your right now. This
- 1:32Speaker 1: is stream thinking. Today. We're reading from July twelfth, twenty
- 1:36Speaker 1: twenty five. Maybe it's just my age, but I unveil
- 1:39Speaker 1: a date on the Google calendar and for some reason,
- 1:42Speaker 1: I pause and I have to think about it. Mental
- 1:45Speaker 1: health experts say it's completely natural because your brain is
- 1:48Speaker 1: processing something that is much deeper than just a frickin' number.
- 1:53Speaker 1: As real people, we are searching for significance. We're always
- 1:57Speaker 1: scanning our memories and oh my god, Facebook is all
- 2:02Speaker 1: over this. This is what you were doing five years ago,
- 2:04Speaker 1: this is what you were doing ten years ago. They
- 2:06Speaker 1: freaking get it. Birthdays, anniversaries, deadlines, it's our moods in
- 2:13Speaker 1: a quick search. Anticipation and dread are always in play.
- 2:18Speaker 1: I see something like July twelfth, and it's like whoa, whoa,
- 2:22Speaker 1: the summer's already half over, damn pausing after looking at
- 2:26Speaker 1: the date again and again and again, and the calendar
- 2:30Speaker 1: itself serves as a trigger, It's okay to explore it now.
- 2:35Speaker 1: Being a daily writer of thirty two years, guess what
- 2:38Speaker 1: thirty two years I want you to think about that.
- 2:41Speaker 1: I've got thirty two July twelfths that I can go
- 2:45Speaker 1: back to at any given moment. But do you go
- 2:50Speaker 1: back and research it? What was the one thing that
- 2:53Speaker 1: I shared with you in the very beginning stream thinking?
- 2:55Speaker 1: It's learning how to trust what is in your present
- 2:58Speaker 1: place of right now. So why do you want to
- 3:00Speaker 1: do any stream thinking if we're living in our present
- 3:02Speaker 1: place of right now? Because you got a lot of
- 3:04Speaker 1: junk in your trunk, Julia Cameron of The Artist Way says,
- 3:08Speaker 1: and if you don't get in there and clean out
- 3:09Speaker 1: that closet, you're never gonna have enough room. I mean,
- 3:11Speaker 1: look at your own personal life. I'll take it back
- 3:13Speaker 1: to my third grade teacher, missus Stephison, who would say,
- 3:16Speaker 1: look inside your desk in this classroom, the way that
- 3:20Speaker 1: your desk presently looks, not yesterday, not a week auld go,
- 3:23Speaker 1: not a month ago, not before you got there. How
- 3:25Speaker 1: your desk presently looks is how your life looks a
- 3:31Speaker 1: giant Google calendar and you just stop. Oh, remember it's okay,
- 3:40Speaker 1: because you're digging in deeper than what you thought you
- 3:44Speaker 1: would go, and your brain is trying to get it significance.
- 3:48Speaker 1: But how do you deal with that? If you're going
- 3:50Speaker 1: to try to stream think? How do you get in
- 3:52Speaker 1: there to clean out those closets? As Julia Cameron would say,
- 3:55Speaker 1: you gotta be honest with yourself. And here's the number
- 3:57Speaker 1: one thing that I would love for you to try
- 3:58Speaker 1: with your stream thinking. Don't be a damn poet. Don't
- 4:02Speaker 1: try to rhyme, don't try to get reason, don't jump
- 4:05Speaker 1: onto chat GPT looking for answers. I'm just saying ten
- 4:09Speaker 1: minutes of practice, write whatever is moving through your skull.
- 4:15Speaker 1: If you've got bad spelling, I don't care, just get
- 4:20Speaker 1: it out. Remember three things happen when you learn how
- 4:23Speaker 1: to stream think. You sharpen your skills as a listener,
- 4:28Speaker 1: as a communicator, and as an activator. And you know
- 4:32Speaker 1: the number one person that will not believe in your
- 4:35Speaker 1: efforts of growing forward when you've got all three of
- 4:37Speaker 1: those those who are currently in control the decision makers
- 4:41Speaker 1: because they don't have what you're fine tuning. I'm Errol,
- 4:45Speaker 1: and that's stream thinking.
