Answering the Call: From Just Working’ to Doing Something That Actually Matters (S5) S5:E5 · Inspirations for Your Life

0:21
Two, one, we're live.
0:24
Hey guys, it's John.
0:25
I'm at Montgomery State University and yeah, it
0:28
is a little bit cold today.
0:29
In fact, I'm sitting here in all this
0:31
snow and you can see the snow here.
0:34
I literally had to step into it just
0:36
to find a table to be able to
0:38
do this.
0:39
It's great to be with you.
0:41
A little bit cold out here, not as
0:43
cold as it normally is, so I am
0:45
grateful for that.
0:46
If this is your first time joining me,
0:47
I do want to say thank you and
0:49
welcome aboard.
0:50
Really grateful to have you here with me.
0:52
We're in our fifth year.
0:54
We've been on the air now four years
0:55
in a row and this is our fifth
0:57
year and our 28th day.
1:00
Yes, January 28, 2026.
1:04
If you've been here before, well, welcome back.
1:07
If it's your first time here, I definitely
1:09
want to say welcome to you right now.
1:11

1:14
more of my amazing, of course, inspiring creations.
1:16
Without any further ado, let's go ahead and
1:18
kick this show off.
1:20
All right, everyone.
1:21
Oh, and if you're thirsty, feel free to
1:23
go grab yourself something, whether that's a snack,
1:25
whether that's water, juice.
1:26
We are on a university campus, so I'm
1:29
not really sure we might get people walking
1:30
around us.
1:31
Just deal with that.
1:33
Today, it's all about answering the call from
1:37
just working to doing something that actually matters.
1:40
This is show five and it is episode
1:44
number five.
1:45
Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Inspirations for
1:48
Your Life, the daily motivational show where growth
1:52
is intentional and purpose is always powerful and
1:56
success is aligned, ladies and gentlemen.
1:59
I am your host, John C.
2:01
Morley, serial entrepreneur, engineer, marketing specialist, video producer,
2:06
podcast host, coach, yes, and a passionate lifelong
2:10
learner and a graduate student.
2:12
Great to be here.
2:13
Sorry, we are going to have some interruptions.
2:14
I apologize about that, but we are on
2:16
a campus and not too much I can
2:18
do about that.
2:19
I tried to pick an area that's off
2:21
the beaten path.
2:22
Today's episode is all about answering the call,
2:26
no, not your phone, that inner pull towards
2:28
something that actually moves us, that matters to
2:32
us, that aligns with our core values.
2:34
Many people, ladies and gentlemen, aren't lazy, that's
2:37
the truth, or unmotivated.
2:40
They're just simply uncalled.
2:42
When you haven't heard your why in a
2:45
while, even success feels, well, frankly, exhausting.
2:49
There's a difference, ladies and gentlemen, between a
2:51
job and a calling, and you usually feel
2:54
it on Monday morning.
2:56
A calling doesn't always pay you first.
3:00
It shapes you first.
3:01
That's important.
3:02
That idea you keep returning to, that's not
3:06
random, guys.
3:07
That's recruitment.
3:09
Your frustration may be information.
3:12
Your side project may be your assignment, and
3:16
that's okay.
3:17
Comfort and calling rarely live in the same
3:20
house.
3:21
Growth often arrives when it's inconvenient.
3:25
I know, guys.
3:26
I said to you that where it's uncomfortable,
3:29
that's where the growth happens.
3:31
That's where success starts to birth.
3:33
People may not understand your pivot, and that's
3:35
okay.
3:36
That doesn't mean you're wrong.
3:39
It means you heard something they didn't.
3:43
Sometimes answering the call doesn't mean quitting everything.
3:49
It means staying, but differently.
3:53
Nothing you've done was wasted.
3:56
Even the detours actually trained you.
4:00
They may be, well, a season where your
4:03
new life has started, but the old one
4:06
hasn't ended yet, and that's okay.
4:08
Stay steady, everyone.
4:10
Ask yourself, are you chasing impact or attention?
4:17
Calling costs excuses.
4:21
Right now, someone needs what you keep talking
4:25
yourself out of doing.
4:27
That's the truth.
4:28
You're not behind, guys.
4:31
You're being recruited.
4:33
This is something that we need to realize,
4:37
and I think a lot of out there,
4:40
they just get stuck.
4:44
Right now, I've actually got my feet kind
4:46
of about maybe a half foot in the
4:49
snow because I'm sitting at this bench, and
4:51
I'm right here by some pretty cool snow,
4:54
and it's kind of hard snow.
4:55
You can kind of see it here.
4:56
Just kind of take a snowball and just,
4:58
whoa, can throw it, and the snow is
5:00
very cold here, actually.
5:02
It's really, really cold, but just sitting out
5:04
here is not too bad.
5:06
It is a pretty nice day.
5:09
There is quite a bit of snow out
5:10
here.
5:10
I know some of you watching this may
5:12
be in 90 or 100 degree weather.
5:14
You're like, what are you talking about?
5:15
Is it cold?
5:16
Well, I'm filming this, and it's winter.
5:18
Yeah, it's the middle of winter.
5:19
It's January 28, 2026, and it's cold, and
5:23
we're supposed to get into the snowstorm again,
5:24
too.
5:25
I don't usually like to talk about the
5:26
weather, but this has been a really interesting
5:28
year with weather.
5:30
Anyway, when we think about answering the call,
5:32
I'm not talking about answering your telephone.
5:35
I'm talking about answering your call, answering your
5:39
passion in life.
5:40
That's what it's about, folks, when you can
5:43
answer that passion in life.
5:45
When the phone is ringing, you obviously answer
5:48
it.
5:49
When you get a call, it doesn't sound
5:52
like a phone ringing, not even a horn.
5:56
It's sometimes subtle in your gut.
6:00
You get this, or in your brain, you
6:02
get this inclining or thought that you should
6:06
do something.
6:07
Then you decide to pursue that.
6:10
When you pursue that, you're first like, oh
6:12
my gosh, this didn't really work out so
6:13
well.
6:14
Why did I ever do this?
6:15
Well, I think you did it because you
6:17
wanted to see if you could do it.
6:19
The call of life is something a lot
6:21
of people just miss.
6:22
They're too busy.
6:23
They're on their phone.
6:24
They're on the radio.
6:26
They're just not in tune with the world.
6:29
They're in tune with themselves.
6:30
I think that's a problem for a lot
6:32
of people that are trying to build a
6:34
better version of themselves.
6:36
They're so wrapped up in who they are
6:37
that they don't take time to think about
6:40
what's going on in the world, the fact
6:42
of whether it's snowing, whether it's raining, whether
6:45
the sun's out or not.
6:47
When I say to you, answer the call,
6:49
again, I'm not talking about your cell phone.
6:51
I'm talking about your call in life, your
6:54
call to respond to your mission, your call
7:00
to respond to your passion.
7:02
I'll say this to you guys right now.
7:03
It's important.
7:05
When you do what you like for a
7:08
living, you'll never work a day in your
7:10
life.
7:12
That's the key, but so many people I
7:14
talk to don't like what they do.
7:16
They show up at a job and they
7:18
keep doing this.
7:19
Oh my gosh, how many more minutes is
7:21
it?
7:22
How many more minutes is it?
7:23
When is this over?
7:23
When is this over?
7:24
When is this over?
7:25
You get my point, right?
7:27
That would never happen if somebody actually chose
7:31
something that they believed in.
7:34
This is why I love being a serial
7:35
entrepreneur, because you do what you want to
7:41
do, even though you can answer the clients
7:42
and stuff like that, but you're your own
7:44
boss pretty much.
7:46
I think a lot of people out there
7:48
get scared with the concept of being their
7:50
own boss.
7:51
Maybe they don't think they have the discipline.
7:55
Maybe they don't think they have all the
7:57
skills, but nobody ever did when they got
8:00
started.
8:00
When I became a serial entrepreneur or even
8:03
an entrepreneur, it was daunting.
8:07
There were a lot of lonely nights when
8:09
people were doing their things and I had
8:12
to basically sacrifice time, effort, and other things.
8:19
I don't think that was a bad thing,
8:20
but sometimes people don't want to put up
8:23
that sacrifice.
8:24
I've talked about long-term gratification and I've
8:27
talked about short-term gratification.
8:29
Those that go for the short-term gratification,
8:32
the cookies, the chocolate cake, eating all that
8:35
stuff and then being 500 pounds, and those
8:37
that take short-term gratification understand that we
8:40
can have a little bit and actually the
8:43
long-term gratification is that, yeah, we're healthier,
8:47
that we feel actually better.
8:49
I think those are very, very important things
8:52
to think about.
8:53
I know a lot of you out there
8:55
today are saying to me, John, answering the
8:57
call.
8:57
How do I answer a call?
9:00
Well, I think the best way to answer
9:03
a call is to listen to your intuition,
9:05
to listen to your mind.
9:07
When you get an idea, well, check it
9:09
out.
9:10
Maybe your call is to be a writer.
9:14
I started writing a book, as you know.
9:16
Maybe your call is to be a teacher,
9:19
a professor.
9:20
Maybe your call is to volunteer.
9:24
Maybe your call is to work in a
9:26
certain industry.
9:27
If you have those skills, try to get
9:29
in that industry.
9:30
If you don't, then maybe that's a good
9:32
time to go back to school, college, et
9:35
cetera.
9:36
When you do this, you're going to find
9:39
that it's going to be hard.
9:40
You're going to think that I can't do
9:43
this because nothing is working the way I
9:45
expect it to.
9:45
I'm not going to tell you it's going
9:47
to be easy because it's going to be
9:48
darn hard, but that sacrifice that you put
9:52
through and everything you do day in, day
9:54
out.
9:54
Look at me here.
9:55
I'm in the snow.
9:56
I'm shooting the show here in the snow
9:58
because I like to shoot outdoors.
10:01
The cold isn't stopping me.
10:03
Technology and laptops and cameras can drop pretty
10:06
low, so very grateful for all that.
10:09
When we think about answering a call, think
10:13
about your heart.
10:15
Think about what it means to you.
10:16
Think about how that affects your daily life.
10:20
A wise person once told me, actually through
10:23
video, Neville Goddard, we need to live the
10:26
feeling of the wish fulfilled.
10:29
We need to imagine the life that we
10:32
want before it has shown up on the
10:35
outer world.
10:36
We have to envision it.
10:37
We have to think it.
10:38
We have to see it.
10:39
We have to feel it, smell it, hear
10:41
it.
10:42
When that reality becomes so real to us
10:46
that we can't believe it anymore, that's when
10:50
it starts to manifest in our life.
10:53
Answering a call might be something as simple
10:56
as, I like to act.
10:59
Maybe there's this theatrical group that you want
11:02
to get involved with to do some acting,
11:05
or maybe you want to take up a
11:07
sport.
11:08
A call doesn't necessarily have to mean a
11:12
profession, like a job.
11:14
A call doesn't necessarily mean that you have
11:18
to do something all the time.
11:20
A call just means that you need to
11:23
check something out and you need to explore
11:27
it.
11:27
Your call might be to, I don't know,
11:30
learn how to bake.
11:32
Your call might be something like to learn
11:37
how to be a mechanic.
11:38
I'm just throwing these out to you.
11:39
They may not be things that are going
11:41
to be your profession, but it might be
11:43
a calling.
11:45
That calling might actually connect you with people
11:48
that are meant to be in your life.
11:50
I know that sounds crazy, but it is
11:53
the truth, ladies and gentlemen.
11:54
If you're wondering where I am, I'm actually
11:56
outside of the beautiful Montclair State University.
11:59
I'm actually right here on one of the
12:02
patios.
12:02
It's actually right outside of the student center.
12:06
Normally, this area is pretty easy to access.
12:09
They did shovel the walkway here, but all
12:13
the tables, and I picked tables that actually
12:16
are flat and they're round.
12:19
All the round tables still have snow on
12:21
them, but all these, let's say, square tables,
12:24
they have no snow and they're actually dry.
12:27
The seats are pretty dry.
12:29
Unfortunately, getting to these tables, I literally had
12:31
to go through at least a foot and
12:33
a half of snow or more because that's
12:36
how I had to get here.
12:37
The snow is deep.
12:39
Then I put my feet above the snow
12:41
so they could rest.
12:42
If you keep your feet in the snow
12:43
so long, they get cold.
12:46
When they get cold, it's not fun.
12:48
Now, if you notice, I don't have my
12:48
gloves on today, but there were days out
12:50
here that my hands would be blue if
12:54
they were out this long.
12:55
You saw me.
12:56
I had my gloves on, took my gloves
12:58
off.
12:59
Answering a call, let's talk more about that.
13:03
When we think about answering a call of
13:05
life, your call maybe to be a parent,
13:08
your call maybe to get married, your call
13:11
maybe to enter the religious life, your call
13:14
maybe, like I said, so many different things.
13:16
It's different for different people.
13:18
When we start to realize that the call
13:22
we get is just for us, sometimes that
13:27
phone, and I'm saying the proverbial phone, it
13:30
doesn't ring again.
13:32
It's like opportunity knocks once, but it doesn't
13:35
knock again.
13:36
It's not because it can't, just because it
13:39
doesn't.
13:40
Opportunity often says if it knocks once, it's
13:43
usually not going to knock again, because you
13:46
were meant to answer that door, to answer
13:49
that call.
13:52
Let's talk about this again.
13:55
A couple things in my life when I
13:57
answer the call on.
13:58
One thing, answering the call to be a
14:00
scout, and answering the call to become an
14:03
Eagle Scout, answering the call just recently to
14:06
become an author, answering the call to do
14:08
professional voiceovers, answering the call to be a
14:11
podcast host and coach, answering the call to
14:15
go back to school and be a graduate
14:17
student and fulfill my master's and PhD.
14:21
These are all different types of calls.
14:24
Another call in my life that I answered
14:27
was the call to be a responder and
14:31
get my FCCC license, right?
14:36
Another call was becoming a business owner, and
14:39
then becoming an entrepreneur, and then becoming a
14:42
serial entrepreneur.
14:44
Another call of mine was deciding to get
14:49
certified in Reiki, and now I'm a Reiki
14:51
level two master.
14:53
Another call of mine when I think about
14:55
it is thinking about how I can give,
14:58
but in a very quiet and way that
15:04
no one even knows I'm doing it.
15:07
I think that's what matters most.
15:09
Another call that I know that I've been
15:13
put toward is in my own church, being
15:18
grateful to be a lector.
15:21
I love lecturing in our church.
15:23
Another call recently being called to be a
15:26
Eucharistic minister, very grateful for that as well.
15:29
Those were calls.
15:33
I got this nudge.
15:34
I heard about it.
15:35
Something in my heart said, you know what,
15:37
John?
15:37
You should do that.
15:38
That's a calling.
15:41
Not hard things, but these are things that
15:44
matter.
15:44
These are things that make a difference in
15:46
life.
15:47
I think a lot of people, they get
15:49
stuck in their own shell, and then they
15:52
decide they don't want to do anything.
15:55
Then they complain that they're not any further
16:00
than they were.
16:02
I have to say why.
16:03
You know what it is?
16:04
It's because they didn't answer the call.
16:08
Maybe the calling was for you to get
16:12
in shape, but you didn't.
16:14
Maybe your call was to become more peaceful.
16:20
Maybe your call was to be a better
16:22
listener.
16:23
It doesn't have to be anything formal or
16:26
anything with a big title.
16:27
A call just means something that you have
16:31
been chosen to do or be a part
16:36
of.
16:37
I think going back to the telephone for
16:39
a moment, when the phone answers, I remember
16:42
the very first days.
16:45
God rest my grandfather's soul on my dad's
16:47
side when he was alive.
16:49
The phone would ring.
16:51
This was before the days of caller ID,
16:53
incoming call line ID.
16:54
Then they had not just the ID, then
16:56
they had the incoming caller line ID with
16:58
name and number.
17:00
I remember those days.
17:01
I remember before we had caller ID and
17:03
name and number caller ID, I remember the
17:06
phone would ring.
17:07
Right?
17:08
We would run like you know what to
17:10
answer the phone.
17:13
Finally, my grandfather comes over and he's like,
17:17
what are you doing?
17:18
I'm running for the phone.
17:19
He's like, let the phone ring once or
17:21
twice.
17:22
They'll wait.
17:23
If they don't, then they'll call back.
17:26
I was like, well, grandpa, the phone rings.
17:27
If I don't get it, well, then I
17:29
guess they'll have to call back if they
17:31
want you.
17:31
You don't need to answer it on the
17:33
first ring.
17:35
Then when caller ID came out from Bell
17:38
Labs a long time ago, I actually did
17:40
my senior project on that in college.
17:44
I remember caller ID being out.
17:48
I remember that you could not answer the
17:51
phone until the first ring fully went through
17:55
and because if you didn't, you wouldn't get
17:59
the caller ID.
18:01
The caller ID actually got sent between the
18:03
first and second ring, not instantly between the
18:07
first and second ring.
18:09
Why?
18:10
Because it made contact with the phone.
18:13
Once the phone was contact, they just pass
18:15
the data right off that ring.
18:18
I think when we start to understand these
18:22
things, it can make our lives better.
18:25
From that moment on, I stopped diving for
18:28
the phone.
18:29
I remember one night in the phone's room,
18:32
my dad asked me to get the phone.
18:33
I said, grandpa said, we don't have to
18:35
dive on the first ring.
18:37
Give it a few minutes.
18:38
My dad was still so apprehensive.
18:40
He has to get on the first ring.
18:42
I stopped rushing for the phone.
18:44
If I don't get in the first ring,
18:46
I'll get on the second.
18:47
I'll get on third.
18:49
I won't wait to the fourth, but I
18:50
won't rush to get the phone.
18:53
I think that's a difference.
18:55
Answering the call means that we're doing it
19:00
with pure intention.
19:04
We're doing it because we want to do
19:06
it, not because we have to do it.
19:08
Maybe somebody asked us, but answering the call
19:11
comes from our own free will, comes from
19:14
our desire in life.
19:17
What other calls can you answer?
19:18
Maybe you're going to be a football quarterback.
19:22
Maybe you want to play football.
19:23
Maybe you want to play baseball or any
19:25
other sport.
19:27
Even people that were maybe, let's say, known
19:31
athletes, they answered the call in high school
19:35
or some even in grammar school to become
19:38
somebody that's going to be dedicating their lives
19:41
to train for the National Olympics.
19:44
That's a call, a call to be in
19:47
the Olympics.
19:48
It's also a big sacrifice, but it is
19:50
a call, a call for us to do
19:53
something.
19:54
I think a lot of times in life,
19:57
we're sitting here waiting.
20:00
Calls are coming in, but it's like we
20:03
have ourselves on do not disturb.
20:06
We can't seem to, I don't know, connect
20:10
with any of these calls.
20:12
Right now, I'm hearing a chime bell.
20:15
I'm not sure if you can hear that.
20:17
It's chiming because we're just hitting four o
20:19
'clock.
20:19
But calls are lots of things.
20:23
When we think about calls, there was calls
20:24
for the church.
20:25
That's why bells originally were ringing with churches
20:28
so that when the bells went off, it
20:30
was your calling to start going to mass.
20:34
Our church still does this right before mass.
20:37
They will play the bells.
20:39
That's like your final warning.
20:40
The church is going to start soon.
20:42
It's like your last minute call.
20:43
What they did in the small towns is
20:45
they played these bells.
20:47
Then you could actually, wow, I better get
20:49
to church.
20:50
It was usually done 10 minutes before.
20:52
Now, they do it a few minutes before,
20:53
but it's usually to make sure you're in
20:54
the parking lot that you're in.
20:56
You're already there by that time.
20:58
What other kind of calls do we have?
21:00
We have calls like 911, the call for
21:05
emergency help, the call that when we dial
21:10
911, somebody is going to actually come out
21:12
and help us.
21:14
We have another kind of call.
21:16
We have a call that would happen, maybe
21:19
somebody has a call, they call it ship
21:22
to shore on a boat.
21:23
But 911 is a very popular call that
21:26
a lot of people don't realize.
21:28
When you dial 911 today, there's a lot
21:30
that happens behind the scenes.
21:32
Your call gets routed usually to a center.
21:34
It's not even usually in your town.
21:36
Then they'll route that call to the EMS.
21:41
When we think about calls, you don't think
21:44
about the way they used to be done.
21:46
Many years ago, it didn't happen like that.
21:48
There was no 911.
21:50
You call the police department, they set off
21:52
bells or sirens in the town, and that's
21:54
how the call worked.
21:56
The volunteers came, but that's not how it
21:58
works today.
21:59
Another popular kind of call, we've got duck
22:02
calls.
22:03
There are lots of calls.
22:06
A lot of these calls are human in
22:08
nature.
22:10
We've got calls that we hear all the
22:13
time.
22:15
Sometimes it could be as simple as a
22:19
call for help.
22:21
Think about Code Adam.
22:23
I won't get into that well, but it
22:25
was all about this kid and the parents
22:29
basically that put this program together so that
22:31
whenever a child gets lost in a department
22:34
store or whatnot, they immediately follow the Code
22:38
Adam procedure.
22:39
Then they lock all the doors down.
22:43
They do a whole scanning of the area.
22:46
Then you know what happens?
22:48
They hopefully find the person, but they lock
22:50
the doors immediately so that no one can
22:52
get in or get out until they have
22:54
found that person.
22:56
Once they've gone through the entire place and
22:58
they have not found that person, then they
23:01
might have skipped out.
23:03
Usually, if the person does Code Adam correctly,
23:08
they have locked those doors before anybody has
23:12
a chance to run or get out.
23:14
That's a very unique kind of call.
23:16
What other kind of calls do we have
23:18
in the world?
23:20
Oh, there are lots of calls.
23:22
We have bird calls.
23:26
We talked about the emergency calls before.
23:30
All animals have different types of calls.
23:36
Sometimes there's the whistle call.
23:38
People whistle like, hey, get your attention.
23:41
There's the calls from TV.
23:43
We have the call signal and signs where
23:48
they say their broadcasting names and where they're
23:53
serving.
23:53
This is channel x, y, dot, dot, dot,
23:55
dot, serving, dot, dot, dot, dot, of such
23:57
and such area.
23:59
That's a call.
24:01
We have a call in our speech.
24:03
We have a call to order.
24:04
When there's a meeting, we have a call.
24:08
We answer those calls, but we don't think
24:11
about them as calls.
24:13
When we have an opportunity and a call
24:18
comes to us, do we answer, or do
24:22
we let the phone ring, or do we
24:24
put ourselves on do not disturb?
24:27
The reason we don't answer calls is maybe
24:30
we're scared and afraid.
24:33
Maybe we know it's going to be different,
24:35
and we don't know if we have what
24:37
it's going to take to handle that situation.
24:41
That's very, very viable.
24:45
Calls come to us from medical.
24:47
They come to us from animals.
24:49
They come to us from 911.
24:52
They come to us in meetings.
24:55
There's calls in courtrooms.
24:58
What about a call for a motion or
25:01
when the judge says, please rise?
25:06
There's a call.
25:08
And I think these calls, there's also a
25:10
call when we always salute the flag.
25:12
I pledge allegiance to the flag of the
25:14
United States.
25:15
You know that one, right?
25:16
Or if you're an Eagle Scout like myself
25:18
or a Boy Scout in your uniform, then
25:21
you actually, you will do the salute, right?
25:24
You have the one like this, and you
25:25
have the salute like this.
25:28
So, I think these are interesting things.
25:31
I think as you're probably listening or watching
25:33
this, you might say, John, I don't know
25:36
if I've been called.
25:37
Well, maybe the best thing to do is
25:39
to just be silent and to figure out
25:41
what is going on.
25:44
Silence those chattering monkeys in your head, because
25:48
when those monkeys make that noise, you're not
25:52
going to be able to tell whether this
25:54
is a call or whether this is noise.
25:55
There's so much noise in our world, and
25:58
because of that noise, we miss the call,
26:01
right?
26:02
Suppose the phone was ringing and there was
26:03
a lot of loud music playing.
26:05
Would you hear the phone?
26:06
Probably not.
26:07
That's why a lot of times, I know
26:09
like when I was at college as a
26:11
freshman, I had this light.
26:13
It's pretty cool.
26:14
The light, I would turn the light on
26:16
when I go to bed.
26:17
It was basically a strobe.
26:19
And so, when the phone would ring early
26:21
in the morning, it wouldn't ring.
26:22
It would strobe, so it wouldn't wake up
26:25
my roommate.
26:28
And he slept like a light, so the
26:31
sound would wake him up, but the strobe
26:33
wouldn't.
26:34
So, I thought that was a very interesting
26:35
thing.
26:35
That was a call.
26:37
That was a certain type of call.
26:39
We have calls with the police department, right?
26:43
How about even with CBs, you know, breaker,
26:46
breaker, breaker, 1-9.
26:47
I have a call when I use my
26:49
FCC radio ID.
26:52
We have a call when we pick up
26:54
our CB radio and we say, you know,
26:57
this is Red Baron.
26:59
Give me your 1036.
27:00
What time is it?
27:01
Or give me your 1020.
27:03
What's your location?
27:03
These are different kinds of calls, and we
27:06
are trained to respond to those calls.
27:09
I hope this gave you some insight about
27:12
calls and how they arrive and how when
27:15
they arrive, you need to answer them.
27:17
But sometimes we need to be very quiet
27:19
because if we don't, we'll miss that there
27:22
was even a call, and that call may
27:25
never come again.
27:26
Ladies and gentlemen, this has been, yes, the
27:30
Inspirations for Your Life show, and I am
27:32
John C.
27:33
Morley, and I am reminding you that your
27:35
calling doesn't need permission, applause, or perfect timing.
27:41
It just needs a yes.
27:43
So, when you get that opportunity, when you
27:46
get that sense, say yes.
27:49
You can listen now or rewatch this by
27:52
going to believemeachieved.com and catch more of
27:56
my other inspiring creations.
27:58
Have yourself a great one, everyone.
27:59
And remember, guys, answer that call when you
28:02
get it.
