• 0:28
  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  Did you know that often prior to you things going awry prior to
• 0:36
  things feeling completely like, oh God, I can't believe this is
• 0:41
  happening, that there are always little things that show up
• 0:45
  little tiny tells if you will that just start to peep up and
• 0:50
  they're small and they bubble. And they start to look like a
• 0:54
  pan is going to boil, but it's not boiling, you know, when you
• 0:57
  watching water and you see it and it looks like it's Ready to
• 1:01
  boil, but it's not really boiling and especially if you're
• 1:04
  making pudding if you've ever made pudding, realize it says,
• 1:08
  bring to a rapid boil and then you have to take it right off
• 1:12
  immediately. But just prior to that rapid
• 1:15
  boil, there's just a little bit and it's right there.
• 1:18
  Well, that's how it works in our lives.
• 1:20
  There are always little signs that show up that give us
• 1:22
  information and oftentimes, it revolves around us becoming
• 1:28
  disenchanted it revolves around us.
• 1:30
  Feeling uncomfortable. It revolves around us knowing
• 1:34
  that there's something better more bigger or a different that
• 1:38
  we need to focus on or just cleaning up the problems.
• 1:42
  Even that we have these little tiny anyway.
• 1:44
  You problems that show up that we don't seem to pay attention
• 1:48
  to because we're just preoccupied we're just in our
• 1:51
  daily lives or as my mother used to say The Daily Grind, and we
• 1:55
  don't pay attention to these little things.
• 2:00
  I Do this inherently with mechanical equipment, My
• 2:03
  Confession to you guys if I hear something, I don't tell my
• 2:07
  husband right away. I'm just like, oh maybe there's
• 2:09
  just something in there. Did it with the washing machine
• 2:11
  and he's like, you got to tell me when the American these weird
• 2:14
  noises, but I'm just like, oh, whatever.
• 2:16
  And I used to blow by it very good at picking up on it, in
• 2:20
  myself, but I'm very bad at. Putting it out there when it
• 2:23
  comes to equipment, I broke the weed whacker that way and he's
• 2:28
  like, can you just not do? Do that.
• 2:31
  So that prompted that me to think about this is just why
• 2:34
  we're having this conversation because I can catch it always
• 2:39
  when it shows up in myself. Certain things where I realize
• 2:45
  I'm just not on point and I feel like I'm not picking up the
• 2:50
  clues so to speak. They're there their present but
• 2:54
  I'm not doing a good job, picking them up and We know and
• 2:59
  I know they're there and I know you know, they're there but the
• 3:02
  thing is why do we ignore it? What's the reason that we just
• 3:06
  don't pay attention to it? Have you ever thought about
• 3:08
  that? Like what are these little
• 3:10
  things that I'm ignoring that I'm tolerating that word always
• 3:14
  drives me insane when someone says I'm tolerating it.
• 3:16
  Even for myself when I'm tolerating something, it's just
• 3:20
  gross it to me. Like why am I tolerating
• 3:23
  something? I know I can fix.
• 3:25
  What are these little tells? What are the little tiny things?
• 3:28
  Things that you have made decisions about that put you in
• 3:33
  a place where your everyday allowing these things to fester
• 3:39
  and get bigger and become more ugly.
• 3:43
  So that when they do explode, when they do have an impact and
• 3:47
  it's like a pop, you come off much more intense much bigger
• 3:52
  than necessary. And that's that is a big
• 3:56
  function of why we're having this conversation.
• 3:58
  Conversation is so that you can realize you don't need to wait
• 4:01
  until it becomes unbearable. You don't need to just wait all
• 4:06
  that time. And the other piece of this is
• 4:10
  often those subtleties of what the clues are really are subtle.
• 4:15
  Like, all of a sudden, you'll notice, you know what, I'm not
• 4:19
  working out as many days as I was.
• 4:21
  I'm not reading my books. Now, I'm not going for walks,
• 4:25
  I'm not doing the things or You know, for me a big one when my
• 4:30
  mother was not doing well, she said to me, I'm not going to go
• 4:34
  get my hair done anymore. And I said, what like, how could
• 4:38
  that be for a woman? Her entire life would bend the
• 4:41
  way that she was having her hair done and everything else?
• 4:44
  The moment she said, I just don't care anymore about it.
• 4:47
  I'm not going to go have it colored anymore.
• 4:49
  Now, it's her decision to do that, but that was a big thing
• 4:53
  when she stopped living in a vivacious way.
• 4:58
  We all have these little things that come up whether it's, you
• 5:02
  know, getting your toes polished or going to have a beer with
• 5:05
  your friends or something. We all have these little Clues,
• 5:09
  whether it's what we're tolerating, whether it's what we
• 5:12
  stopped doing, whether it's where we give up.
• 5:15
  But it's important to your mental well-being to recognize
• 5:19
  where these are showing up. So right out of the Chute, this
• 5:22
  week challenge for you. Are these things showing up in
• 5:25
  your life, are they, are they Giving you Clues, and it's okay.
• 5:31
  If you make a decision, say you know what, I've learned
• 5:34
  something from this, I'm no longer going to do that.
• 5:36
  That's not what we're talking about.
• 5:38
  What we're talking about is the things that, you know, are there
• 5:42
  that you're not doing anything with, that's the piece.
• 5:46
  So go be a nice pie, figure it out and I hope you have a
• 5:51
  blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
• 5:53
  My friends. Bye.
