- 0:29Good morning from the In Coop. So today we're going to talk
- 0:33about putting yourself under this undue pressure, that
- 0:38Society tells you, you have to accomplish something by.
- 0:41So, I had a really interesting little thing happen, over the
- 0:45weekend where I was very excited to go.
- 0:48And I was working with a bunch of women and we were doing some
- 0:51goal-setting stuff or really. It was more about just vision
- 0:55boards and whatnot. And the overriding sense was
- 0:59that a lot of It's ladies who were just Divine in Wonderful.
- 1:03By the way, they had this feeling about how, you know, oh,
- 1:07it's that beginning of the year, I'm not there or I've got to do
- 1:10this or, you know, it's not right or I got to have it done
- 1:13on time, all kinds of rules around him and I can't stress
- 1:19enough. That just, like I said to them
- 1:21the most important part of doing all of these exercises at the
- 1:25beginning of the year, or whatever you decide to do them,
- 1:28because it could be, anytime is to Not have it be about the push
- 1:33of just to tick the box and get it done and do it because you're
- 1:36under pressure. This is all about being excited.
- 1:40This is all about being joyful. This is about doing it because
- 1:44it feels good to do it if you're doing it and it doesn't feel
- 1:49good that I'm really going to suggest that you stop doing it.
- 1:53Just put it on, pause, just wait until you feel good or like I
- 1:56had them. Do I said instead of doing
- 1:59vision boards that were Is based around, you know, a specific
- 2:02goal that you look at it and you say to yourself, I'm just going
- 2:08to use this board to be inspired.
- 2:10So I did boards. And I've talked about this, the
- 2:12last two weeks, I did board for my garden flowers.
- 2:16All different kinds of things working on one for chicken stuff
- 2:19right now. And the most important thing
- 2:21about that is that I I'm not saying they have to be
- 2:25completely accurate and specific, but they do have to be
- 2:28inspirational. The That I did for the flowers.
- 2:31I was just like, wow. Okay, this just inspires me, I
- 2:34can't grow some of the flowers that I put on there where I live
- 2:37because they don't work well here.
- 2:40So this is about using the inspiration piece and saying,
- 2:43okay, this just gets me fired up, this makes me feel good.
- 2:46This makes me get excited because that's what this is
- 2:49about energy is everything, emotion is everything.
- 2:52And when you have that emotion around it, that's what fires it
- 2:56off. That's what gets you motivated
- 2:58and going. So for, Our purposes of this
- 3:02conversation, I'm going to ask you, how much time are you
- 3:04spending excited about your goals right?
- 3:07Now, how much time are you spending or like just in that
- 3:11Vortex of saying? Wow, this is great as opposed to
- 3:15oh crap, I'm behind and if you're in the oh crap, I'm
- 3:19behind mode. I really want you to stop.
- 3:21I really want you to put the pause button on, and I want you
- 3:24to think to yourself, okay? This is not the right energy.
- 3:27This is not what I want to take into it.
- 3:29I want to take into it. Excitement, I want to take into
- 3:32it, feeling really good about it.
- 3:33I want to take into it, the fact that this is something I'm going
- 3:37to create this year and not just feel like it's that simple thing
- 3:41of that grind to get it out and check a box and take a box.
- 3:46It's not, it's not okay to take it on that way.
- 3:49So if that, if that is what's happening, you've got to
- 3:52re-evaluate, not only the energy you're coming at it with, but
- 3:57what your primary thoughts and emotions are Around the whole
- 4:01subject in general. Like, if it depresses you to set
- 4:05goals, then don't set goals, don't do it that way.
- 4:07Just take it and break it down. Much smaller.
- 4:10Say, you know what, I'm going to only do a couple of weeks worth
- 4:14of things or days. Worth of things, you can do
- 4:16micro goals and just set them day by day by day by day and
- 4:19then make sure you keep track of them.
- 4:20So you can tally them up and then know how you much you
- 4:23accomplished at the end of the year, but don't allow yourself
- 4:26to take to go down and not be excited.
- 4:29Don't allow yourself to not Be fired up about it and be
- 4:32thrilled about it. You know, that's the piece of
