  Speaker 1: I'm so ready for With it All Wednesday here on the Sweet Spot, where we're getting into this entire series about being in a stand.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: I'm Dr Derek Sweet.
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: I'm your host.
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: As you know, I'm a board certified psychiatrist.
• 0:22
  Speaker 1: I specialize in high performance.
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: More than that, I really love working with individuals and folks who are living their best life.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Ever More than that, I love living a life where there's power, where there's hope and where there's resilience, and that's why, this entire week, we've been devoting ourselves to understanding the power of the stand.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: How do you stand?
• 0:50
  Speaker 1: Why do you stand and what does standing have to do with life and with winning?
• 0:56
  Speaker 1: Today is Win it All Wednesday, and this one right here.
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: It's about standing tall, especially when life tries to cut you down, because that's what life tries to do and God knows around us, we see all kinds of evidence right now of things trying to take us out of a winning mindset.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: So, win it All Wednesday this week on the sweet spot.
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: It's about standing tall in tough times as a winner and beautiful souls.
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: You know that when I talk about standing, as I said on Monday and Tuesday, that it's not just about your feet that sometimes standing is about standing on your focus.
• 1:39
  Speaker 1: That's your stand, staying focused.
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: Sometimes, your stand is about standing on your faith, believing.
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: Sometimes it's about holding your ground when life is trying to knock you out and trying to tell you that you ain't got no business being here.
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: Because when life pushes, your purpose has to stand strong, and when the pressure rises, your character has to stand tall.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: And when everything feels shaky, the strongest thing you can do, the most powerful thing you can do, is stand.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Remember, around here.
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: We believe this with all our heart.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: We believe that when you stand, you win.
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Let me tell you something about winning.
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: I've worked in sports for over 15 years now.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: Winning is not always pretty, and you've got to know something about losing in order to be a real winner.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: Sometimes, winning it's about still being around yeah, still being here.
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I'm still here.
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: That's winning.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: I'm still in the game.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I'm still believing.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: I'm still standing tall when life tried everything and threw everything at me to break me down.
• 3:28
  Speaker 1: And the book of Ephesians says After you've done everything, stand, because when you're in your stand, that's where your power is.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: And there's a saying if you knew who was standing beside you, you would never quit, you would never back down because you know who's standing beside you.
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: You would never quit, you would never back down because you know who's standing beside you.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: So if the ancient wisdom, the word, is saying hey, after you've done everything, stand.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: That's survival.
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: But it's also strength, and I've watched my parents, my grandparents, so many members of my family who have gone on to be in glory, be in stands, be powerful stands, stands for me, stands for the family.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: They just were in such a stand.
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: I didn't understand it when I was Younger, but I get it now, the power of being in a stand.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: You ain't got to go to school for that, you can just know this, and that's why I love that old Japanese proverb.
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: You know it Fall down seven times, stand up eight, fall seven times and stand up eight.
• 4:43
  Speaker 1: That says it all, doesn't it?
• 4:45
  Speaker 1: Life is going to knock us down.
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: Life is going to knock you down.
• 4:49
  Speaker 1: You're going to lose something, something's not going to work out.
• 4:54
  Speaker 1: There'll be a curveball, there'll be a fastball.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: All right, that's not personal, that's life, that's the game of life.
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: But every time you stand back up, every time you fall and get back up, you fall seven.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: You get back up eight.
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: Every time you have stood back up, every single time.
• 5:14
  Speaker 1: My friend, you didn't know this, but you were rewiring your brain for resilience.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: Listen, I'm a doctor, I'm a neuroscientist.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: I have to talk about neuroscience.
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I just can't stop talking about it because I think we do have to understand that we are fearfully and wonderfully made and we should know something about the brain.
• 5:34
  Speaker 1: So we've talked about the prefrontal cortex and the threat detection center, the amygdala.
• 5:39
  Speaker 1: But yeah, every time you take a stand, you make your brain stronger, you make it more focused and you quiet down the fear centers of the brain.
• 5:47
  Speaker 1: And you know, neuroscience calls this neuroplasticity, because your brain starts rewiring itself.
• 5:54
  Speaker 1: It's amazing the more of a stand you take, the more your brain will start to shape itself and reshape itself.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: The brain's ability to adapt, to adjust and to bounce back is amazing.
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: It's nothing short of miraculous.
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: You can learn things by just being courageous, taking a stand.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So resilience is not just some emotional soft thing, it's a physical thing.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: It's happening in the brain every time you take a stand.
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: So guess what?
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: Standing tall, even after disappointment, builds new neural pathways in your brain.
• 6:33
  Speaker 1: It trains your brain when you decide that you're going to hold your head up high and square your shoulders, no matter what losses you face.
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: It trains your brain your ventral vagal complex let's call it technical trains your brain your ventral vagal complex let's call it technical your calm and steady nervous pathway, that center that keeps you calm.
• 6:51
  Speaker 1: It trains it to respond instead of react.
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: You're not just going to react to loss, you're not going to just react to grief, you're not just going to react to disappointment, you're going to respond to it.
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: And that's why standing tall after hard times isn't just strength, it's science.
• 7:14
  Speaker 1: It's science when you stand tall after something hurts you or disappoints you, you're employing faith, obviously, without question, but you are also employing science.
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: Your brain gets better at bouncing back the more you practice getting up and standing, standing on business, standing tall, standing your ground, standing for what you believe.
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: So here's your challenge this Win it All.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: Wednesday.
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: My friend, where have you been knocked down?
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: Where are you feeling a little wobbly, a little shaky right now?
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: Where are you feeling like, ah, I want to give up?
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: Where are you feeling a little bit exasperated, a little tired, a little burnt out?
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: I'm here to tell you.
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: I came by to tell you.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I came by to tell you Don't quit, don't fold and don't disappear.
• 8:12
  Speaker 1: Instead of doing that, stand.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: Remember the ancient wisdom After you've done everything, you could right everything.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: You can stand and stand tall.
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: Even if you've got tears in your eyes today for some reason, even if your knees are shaking, even if your heart's heavy, you are still standing, and that makes you dangerous to every doubt that thought it had you beat.
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: When you stand like that, you make yourself dangerous to doubts.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Be dangerous to doubts today, because you're still standing, you're not defeated.
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: Fall down seven, get up eight.
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: Remember, falling is human, we all fall, but standing tall, that's where victory lives.
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: My friend, stand tall in your faith today, stand tall in your truth, stand tall in your belief, stand tall in your story, because when you stand, you win.
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: That's right.
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: Okay, all right, my midweek warrior.
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: Okay, this is hump day, all right.
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: So I want you to just be a winner today, because you're standing, you're still standing.
