  Hey everybody, welcome to the good Morning from the Chicken
• 0:04
  Coop podcast. My name is Kim Johnson and I am
• 0:07
  a mastermindset, coach, creative strategist, and also happened to
• 0:10
  be a farmer. This is my chicken coop and I
• 0:12
  come out here every day. To record a podcast.
• 0:15
  To teach distinctions, possibilities, new ways of
• 0:18
  thinking, and just bring some joy.
• 0:20
  Into the world. So welcome to the coop and let's
• 0:23
  start your. Day off.
• 0:24
  In a fantastic way. Hey, good morning my friends.
• 0:30
  So we're going to have a little philosophical conversation today
• 0:34
  because I recently read this quote and I thought it and it
• 0:37
  there's nobody who said it. It was just like a, a thing that
• 0:40
  came across. And I was like, wow, holy cow,
• 0:43
  this is so true. And it's this life is strange.
• 0:47
  You arrive with nothing, spend your whole life chasing
• 0:51
  everything and leave with nothing.
• 0:54
  Make sure that you, your soul gains more than your hands.
• 0:59
  And I thought that that was so profound and so interesting and
• 1:03
  so dynamic and so memorable in so many ways because here's the
• 1:09
  truth. It's it, you know, it is a big
• 1:13
  thing that we spend our life chasing so much.
• 1:15
  We spend our life chasing everything.
• 1:17
  Whatever our dreams are, whatever our ambitions are,
• 1:20
  whatever the work our soul has to do, we spend our life working
• 1:24
  on that. We just keep going for it and
• 1:25
  going for it and going for it. And at least most of us do.
• 1:29
  Some people just come and they don't do any of that.
• 1:32
  And they do what they do and the way they do it, which is fine if
• 1:35
  that's what you want to do. But the truth is I don't believe
• 1:38
  we arrive with nothing. We don't have anything physical,
• 1:42
  but what we have is all the magic within us.
• 1:44
  So when I read that, I was like, that's interesting because I
• 1:48
  don't believe we arrived with nothing.
• 1:49
  And I also don't believe we leave with nothing.
• 1:52
  But again, it's not the material stuff.
• 1:54
  We leave with the, with the energetic things.
• 1:59
  We leave with the learnings, we leave with the emotions.
• 2:01
  We leave with all the, the lessons that we've accumulated
• 2:05
  and the distinctions we've come to.
• 2:07
  And we arrive with all the tools that we get when we choose to
• 2:12
  come here, because I believe it is a choice.
• 2:14
  And when you arrive, you have all of this emotion you, at
• 2:19
  least in my opinion, I believe that we choose what's happening
• 2:21
  and we we know that we're going to go to a certain place and we
• 2:25
  know that we're going to have certain experiences that are
• 2:30
  hopefully going to line us up. And I just don't think we get
• 2:34
  sent here haphazardly. Now, that's my personal opinion.
• 2:36
  And you may or you disagree or agree with me, but I just don't
• 2:39
  believe that it's haphazard. And I do believe that we are
• 2:42
  equipped with all of the things that we need to to, to not only
• 2:48
  survive, but to thrive in our tool bag.
• 2:51
  Now, do we open the tool bag and use them all?
• 2:54
  Some of us do and some of us don't.
• 2:56
  Some of us, we lag behind with that and some of us are
• 3:00
  constantly looking for more tools and not paying attention
• 3:02
  to the ones that we have right at our fingertips.
• 3:05
  So the message in all of this that we can kind of come down to
• 3:10
  is that one, you've got to check the tools that you have.
• 3:13
  You got to put it into place and say, am I using all the tools
• 3:16
  that I should be using and, and are the tools that I should be
• 3:20
  expanding on and are there tools that I should be utilizing more
• 3:25
  thoroughly? Like for me, one of my tools
• 3:27
  that I really need to hone in on all the time is patience.
• 3:31
  Now, I came with very little patience for myself and for the
• 3:35
  certain things that I'm working on, but I came with great
• 3:38
  patience as a teacher. When I work with my clients and
• 3:41
  I do what I do, I have undying patience for them.
• 3:45
  But other things, Oh, you know that that's, that's a little
• 3:48
  rough for me when it comes to my own stuff.
• 3:50
  So I and I see that like right now my garden is trashed from
• 3:55
  all this weather, whether it was all the rain or all the heat, it
• 3:58
  is a mess. And it is, you know, nearing the
• 4:01
  end of the summer. And the question is, OK, what
• 4:04
  are you going to do? And I have 0 patience right now
• 4:07
  for it because I've been sick and I still, I'm still in the
• 4:10
  healing process of this cough that just from hell that doesn't
• 4:13
  go away. So patience is always something
• 4:15
  that I have to practice and learn, and I know that.
• 4:18
  So my point of all of this today is I came with that.
• 4:23
  I have to cultivate that, and I'm going to leave with more of
• 4:26
  it than I came with. And that is the outcome.
• 4:28
  That is the goal. So, well, thank you, Sammy.
• 4:31
  She apparently agrees with me on that.
• 4:33
  You know, she's got a lot to say today about this.
• 4:35
  And I think that when you start thinking about the chase of what
• 4:40
  you're chasing, make sure you're chasing things that really fill
• 4:43
  you up. Make sure you're not living out
• 4:45
  of desperation, but you're living out of inspiration.
• 4:48
  And remember, you have choices in all of this.
• 4:50
  And you can always recalibrate, recalculate.
• 4:53
  You can always shift. There is nothing set in stone
• 4:56
  that says, hey, I'm taking on all this information and I have
• 4:59
  to stick to this one way of doing it.
• 5:02
  I can change and I can do all these other ways if I choose to,
• 5:05
  because it's all about the choices and it's all about
• 5:08
  smartness that we bring. Smartness we bring to the table.
• 5:11
  So I hope you guys have a blessed day and I will see you
• 5:15
  all tomorrow and hopefully I won't be coughing.
• 5:17
  I'm going to go do that right now.
• 5:19
  All right, my friends, I'll talk to you soon.
• 5:21
  Bye.
