• 0:28
  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:31
  Today, I want to talk to you about judging yourself and I
• 0:35
  know it's a human thing. Let me just be very clear about
• 0:38
  it. We all judge ourselves and it
• 0:40
  actually isn't a bad tool to have in your tool belt because
• 0:44
  again, it stops you. I've said this before but it
• 0:47
  stops you from doing stupid things when you use the right
• 0:50
  way, but it's also detrimental to your well-being when it's
• 0:54
  overused. It's kind of like salt if you
• 0:57
  put too much salt on something and you get so used to eating,
• 1:01
  Before you know it you have hypertension and high blood
• 1:04
  pressure and all kinds of problems and you have to
• 1:06
  eliminate salt from your diet and you're like I don't want to
• 1:09
  eliminate salts also, great. Well if you used it in the right
• 1:12
  amounts in the beginning it would be great.
• 1:14
  But you didn't you ever used it and therefore you took it out of
• 1:16
  your realm of possibility, and it's kind of like judgment.
• 1:21
  We spend so much time beating ourselves up.
• 1:25
  And judging ourselves and nine times out of ten are judgments,
• 1:30
  are Inaccurate, because they're jaded there, we keep them to
• 1:34
  ourselves because we spend so much time in our heads, talking
• 1:38
  to ourselves and unrwa Source Feliz.
• 1:41
  Oh, we, we have skewed views of things.
• 1:45
  And, unless you kind of expand your views, those skewed views
• 1:49
  have a huge effect on how you see things.
• 1:52
  It's kind of like if you've ever heard the phrase, you know,
• 1:55
  you're never, really completely well-rounded until you travel.
• 2:01
  And I absolutely agree that travel has a huge impact on your
• 2:07
  view of the world. When you take the time to go and
• 2:10
  do some traveling, it doesn't even mean that you have to
• 2:11
  travel far but just getting out of your own bubble and seeing
• 2:16
  things differently. There is a tremendous impact on
• 2:20
  being able to get out and see how other people live, what they
• 2:24
  experienced, what their days are like and it shifts how you view
• 2:29
  the world. So So think of it that way in
• 2:32
  your head, if you don't get out of your head and see how other
• 2:35
  people are doing it or engage in other ideas, which is why
• 2:38
  learning is so important. Even if you can't physically
• 2:41
  travel, to change your points of views.
• 2:44
  Books are your best friends with this because you hear other
• 2:48
  people's perspectives and then you have another way to see the
• 2:52
  world. So for instance, one of my very
• 2:54
  first Endeavors into, this was my, you know, going and
• 2:59
  listening to Tony Robbins my very First time because I was a
• 3:02
  participant at all of his events before I ever worked for him.
• 3:06
  And when I went to my very first event and I sat there and
• 3:09
  listened, it was a business event, it was one day event in
• 3:12
  Boston, and I was so enamored with his points of view of how
• 3:17
  to see sales in a different way. I couldn't imagine how I had
• 3:24
  been seeing it and how I felt about it and then I went and
• 3:28
  compared it to, you know, his His?
• 3:31
  What I how I was seeing it compared to his.
• 3:33
  And no wonder I was not doing well in it.
• 3:36
  No wonder. I was you know, failing every
• 3:39
  day because of my points of view, and when you know, you
• 3:42
  change your perspective, everything changes.
• 3:45
  And once I learned that I could keep diving in and changing this
• 3:51
  over and over and over, boy, I will tell you that key
• 3:56
  distinction shifted my life. It's like, you just have to keep
• 4:01
  On going and keep looking for different things and stop
• 4:04
  judging yourself about where you are because it's not going to
• 4:09
  help you get to where you want to go.
• 4:11
  If that makes sense, we spend so much time wrapped up in that
• 4:17
  bubble of ourselves that we don't get the chance to expand
• 4:21
  and say, okay, well is this is this the only way that I should
• 4:26
  be seeing this because this feels really harsh and I'm
• 4:29
  judging myself. And that results in many toxic
• 4:34
  things in our lives. It's part of the reason why
• 4:37
  where we see so many people, taking antidepressants.
• 4:40
  It's part of the reason why we see so many suicides, it's part
• 4:44
  of the reason why there's so much alcoholism and drug abuse
• 4:48
  in this country, because we are constantly judging ourselves,
• 4:51
  and it's not just this country. I say that.
• 4:53
  I realize I had people from all over the world listening, and I,
• 4:56
  it's everywhere, and it's not just here, but it is a, there is
• 4:59
  a lot of it. Is here.
• 5:01
  And I think that if we could find a way to be kinder to
• 5:06
  ourselves and take in a little bit of Grace into these things,
• 5:12
  that we tell ourselves, we would be profoundly better off and
• 5:18
  that Grace begins with that knowledge of saying, am I being
• 5:22
  too hard on myself? And what's another way that I
• 5:25
  could think of this? What's another way that I could
• 5:28
  view this? And I will encourage Urge, you
• 5:31
  completely, encourage you all the time to read audibles, do
• 5:37
  whatever you need to do, but take in information and taking
• 5:40
  ideas from other people. It's part of the reason why I
• 5:43
  wanted to do this podcast, because I want to reach as many
• 5:46
  people to give other perspectives because that's what
• 5:50
  helps how create happiness inside of us.
• 5:54
  When we have the opportunity and the perspectives to see things
• 5:58
  differently, all of a sudden, The Judgment doesn't have such a
• 6:02
  hold and it also doesn't have such horrific outcomes in our
• 6:05
  lives. So please stop pause, give
• 6:09
  yourself a break, judging yourself while it has its
• 6:13
  benefits in some areas, too much of it is like salt and please do
• 6:17
  not overuse it. And remember, the more
• 6:20
  perspectives you have, the less power, the Judgment has.
• 6:23
  So keep pouring into yourself in different ways and I promise
• 6:28
  you, you can break the cycle of this.
• 6:30
  And change. How you give yourself a break
• 6:34
  change, how you see yourself and change your days.
• 6:36
  All right, my friends. I will see you tomorrow.
• 6:38
  Bye.
