- 0:22Along with all her chickens. Hey everybody.
- 0:29Good morning from the chicken. Ooh, so today I would like you
- 0:33to take an inventory of what, emotions you think make you up?
- 0:39I know, weird question, right? Well, part of the reason I'm
- 0:43asking this is because I've had quite a few conversations with
- 0:46people lately, and they have been choosing primary emotions
- 0:51that are not necessarily resourceful, and I'm just doing
- 0:56an inventory of myself, going through a process of working on.
- 1:00Horace writing things and checking in and saying you know,
- 1:03what are the emotions that are making me up right now and I
- 1:06think it's super important to do that with yourself every so
- 1:10often check in and ask yourself, you know, what's running, who's
- 1:15driving my bus, you know, back to the basics of who's driving,
- 1:18my bus is an important reflection to keep going
- 1:23through. So I'm just going to run you
- 1:24guys through it. Especially, you know, if you've
- 1:28been doing this for a while, Sometimes, we become complacent
- 1:32and we think we haven't mastered.
- 1:33When, in fact, it has all of a sudden taken over and not been
- 1:38our friend. So let me explain it a little
- 1:41bit further, we get patterns of emotions that show up and they
- 1:47rule us because of course when you are in a pattern the pattern
- 1:51rules and there's no way around it unless you recognize it
- 1:54interrupts it disturb it and move forward.
- 1:56So when these emotions start to Show up too much.
- 2:01They become the primary drivers. They becomes, they become the
- 2:06ones that make the choices for you.
- 2:08They become the ones that create your reality.
- 2:12So if you are in a position right now where you're filled
- 2:16with frustration Discord of what's going on in your world,
- 2:21not feeling comfortable, about any situation that is happening.
- 2:27You have to ask yourself. Well what emotion is And that's
- 2:30partly causing some of this to show up for me because our
- 2:33emotions attract everything. And when we pay attention to it,
- 2:37we can shift it but it takes real energy to pause and check
- 2:43in with yourself and to take inventory.
- 2:46So, I can tell you one of the emotions that I have been really
- 2:51enjoying having is a huge amount of imagination and creativity
- 2:55and the creativity has been off the chart, because I've been
- 2:59Writing and creating and recording.
- 3:02And it's just kind of put me in this place of being off the
- 3:05chart creative and that has been a blessing.
- 3:10And it's also been an interesting little.
- 3:14I don't want to say it's a curse because it's not a curse, but
- 3:17it's definitely been a little bit of a challenge because it
- 3:19will interrupt my other things because all of a sudden the
- 3:23creativity wants to just come on out and it's just like, running
- 3:27amok coming up with ideas and I have To manage that.
- 3:31So one of the things that I have been doing is really adding a
- 3:35lot to my parking lot, a parking lot is just a notebook that
- 3:39literally has written across the front of it parking lot.
- 3:42And in that book, I can put things that show up for me that
- 3:46I'm not ready to drive their ideas, but I'm not ready to
- 3:49drive them. Use them or work on them, I just
- 3:52having them and then I put them away and I can take them out
- 3:55another day. And I've been loading a lot into
- 3:58the parking lot to download it from my head so I don't feel
- 4:01like I have to remember it. One of the emotions that's been
- 4:04a little bit more challenging is my old pattern of going to that
- 4:08little bit of anxiousness saying, oh, I wonder if this is
- 4:11going to help anybody. Oh, I wonder if this is,
- 4:13valuable God, that drives me crazy.
- 4:16And I know even if it helps one person, that's all that matters.
- 4:21And I genuinely believe that but even that one person counting is
- 4:26something that we're making My head goes and I have to stop
- 4:28myself and ask the question, so is it resourceful?
- 4:34You know, it's a question to ask myself.
- 4:36Sometimes I think those questions make us better, It'll
- 4:39ask me, you know, I'll ask the question and it will give me
- 4:42information and then it causes me to go back and rewrite
- 4:45something and make it better. So, in that case, it's great.
- 4:48But if I stay in it too long, it becomes wrong.
- 4:51And that's what I'm talking about when you stay in something
- 4:54too long. So if you find yourself, In a
- 4:57state of frustration, this spring and kind of going, oh,
- 5:02gosh, I feel like Winters been too long.
- 5:05We're right in that month, where it's like, I just want it to be
- 5:08nice out. It's, you know, I can't wait for
- 5:10the time change. We go through all those little
- 5:12things, whatever it might be, it causes us to get in the energy.
- 5:17That doesn't serve us. So, check in with the emotions,
- 5:20see what they're giving, you choose better ones if you need
- 5:23to. Because remember, you ultimately
- 5:24have the choice to choose. Will you have to keep changing?
- 5:28Yes, you will. Well, you have to keep
- 5:30course-correcting. Yes, you will.
- 5:32Will you end up breaking the pattern if you keep doing it?
- 5:34Yes, you will. That's the exciting part.
