  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:31
  Look at him on the money with that one.
• 0:33
  So today we are talking about our addiction to chaos and I
• 0:39
  know this is going to be a hard conversation for some people to
• 0:42
  listen to and admit that they have this problem, but some
• 0:46
  people are addicted to chaos. So what does that look like?
• 0:49
  What do I mean when I say that? Well, if you know, let's say you
• 0:54
  have a household in that household is chaotic every
• 0:57
  single morning, you wake up and it's just He'll getting your
• 1:01
  kids out the door and you just can't find your keys and the
• 1:06
  dogs are annoying you. The kids can't get their stuff
• 1:10
  together. You know.
• 1:12
  This is this and this is a regular occurrence.
• 1:14
  No, this is not a one-off. This is a regular occurrence
• 1:16
  because we all have these one off chaotic days, right?
• 1:20
  But I'm talking about this being a regular occurrence for you.
• 1:25
  There is a great chance that this chaos has become part of a
• 1:31
  pattern, which is a pattern of addiction to having it happen.
• 1:35
  And we get something from it because if we hang on to things,
• 1:38
  we get something from them and that could be the story we get
• 1:42
  to tell about it. How terrible our mornings are?
• 1:45
  It could be the feeling that we get from it of being able to go
• 1:49
  to our partners and complain that oh my gosh, you're not
• 1:52
  doing enough. And you don't understand Crazy.
• 1:55
  It is and I can't do this all by myself.
• 1:57
  Blah, blah, blah. There is an addiction to that.
• 2:00
  And we need to stop the madness because the chaos is real and it
• 2:07
  is put out there all around us all the time.
• 2:09
  If you're taking a news, you know, how chaotic it is.
• 2:13
  I mean, if you've been a human being and been alive over the
• 2:16
  last three years, you understand the craziness that has been put
• 2:21
  upon us. Whether you know, you believe it
• 2:25
  politically you, don't believe it politically, whatever it is.
• 2:28
  The chaos that has been thrown our way through the pandemic,
• 2:32
  through just hearing about monkeypox, whatever it might be,
• 2:37
  everything has been so amped up, so high level.
• 2:41
  And so chaotic, that we have become desensitized to even
• 2:47
  recognize it in ourselves. And if we jump back to the
• 2:51
  example, I was using about your own house in the morning and the
• 2:54
  case, Boss that you experience. If that's happening for you, on
• 2:59
  some level, you have to look and say, wait, I'm in control, it's
• 3:03
  my house, it's your house, it's your morning and I'm letting
• 3:07
  this happen now, I can assure you, if there's one thing that I
• 3:11
  am rigid about, it's my non-chaotic mornings because it
• 3:16
  sets the tone for the day, if you can get a handle on the
• 3:19
  mornings, you have a better chance of managing the chaos
• 3:23
  throughout your day. It's just a benchmark.
• 3:26
  If you go into it in the right mindset you're going to be able
• 3:28
  to come through it with the right mindset, but you got to
• 3:32
  start at the beginning, you got to start and look at your
• 3:35
  morning and say, okay, Am I creating this chaos as a habit?
• 3:41
  Have I become addicted to it? Have I just been allowing it?
• 3:44
  Have I been ditching the information giving to me because
• 3:48
  I don't want to deal with it. So what's so important is for
• 3:52
  you to look at the whole morning as a Baseline and say, where is
• 3:57
  it coming from, what's Happening?
• 4:00
  Where are the downfalls? Where are the things that, that
• 4:03
  are my glitches? Where the things that give me
• 4:06
  issues and I do Here, if it's small, tiny things like in my
• 4:11
  world, if we don't have the, you know, dishwashers turned on the
• 4:16
  night before or at least set on so that it will wash overnight.
• 4:20
  Then you wake up in the morning, you do you have dirty dishes,
• 4:23
  you don't have enough of what you need.
• 4:24
  You don't have enough silverware.
• 4:26
  You don't have somebody's favorite cup that Causes Chaos.
• 4:30
  That's something that can start the downhill.
• 4:32
  Slide immediately so the prep work for a great.
• 4:37
  Morning does start the night before so you have to look and
• 4:41
  see. Okay, we're will wear my hiccups
• 4:44
  because if you don't look at where the problems are from a
• 4:47
  very neutral standpoint, and what do I mean by that?
• 4:52
  If You're In the Heat of the Moment, it's very hard to
• 4:55
  discern what has to happen because you'll just start
• 4:57
  blaming other people. But if you sit down today, when
• 5:00
  you are in a very non immediate emotional state about it, let's
• 5:06
  say you're outside your house and you're thinking about, okay
• 5:08
  let me go through a normal morning.
• 5:10
  Now you're not in the chaos right now so you can actually
• 5:12
  think about the chaos and come back with a pretty solid
• 5:17
  definitive line of how it works in your morning and you can lay
• 5:21
  it out and say, Without emotion being triggered.
• 5:25
  That's the way to look at it and then figure out where can I take
• 5:28
  these these hiccups and get rid of them?
• 5:31
  You know, I want I want them gone.
• 5:33
  I don't want to have this chaos be part of my life anymore, but
• 5:36
  it has to start somewhere and that Benchmark is you
• 5:39
  identifying it so, My suggestion would be that today when you
• 5:45
  were in a neutral place. When you are non-emotional,
• 5:47
  start thinking about your chaos start thinking about, and it
• 5:51
  might be that, you know, as you're going through this
• 5:53
  really, it's not really my mornings, it's my evenings, it's
• 5:55
  when I come home or it might be when I get to the office.
• 5:57
  That's when all hell breaks loose.
• 5:59
  Sure this is this can happen anywhere but typically it all
• 6:04
  starts in the morning waking up late, not having the clothes you
• 6:08
  wanted. Somebody can't find a shoe and
• 6:11
  it sets The tone of the entire day, sometimes it sets the tone
• 6:15
  for the entire week. So I challenge you today to take
• 6:20
  that on, look at it. See if you can figure out those
• 6:24
  pieces and then set yourself up to win, I will talk to you
• 6:29
  tomorrow. Bye.
