- 0:20Favorite happy places her chicken coop, along with all her
- 0:23chickens. Hey everybody.
- 0:29Good morning from the chicken coop.
- 0:31So the question of the day is, what are you willing to do to
- 0:35help yourself? What are you willing to do to
- 0:38get yourself to the next level? What are you willing to do to?
- 0:43Put yourself at a spot that you can be proud of and happy of?
- 0:48And the reason I'm asking this question is, because often we
- 0:52want outcomes and we're not willing to do the things that we
- 0:55need to do in order to get those outcomes.
- 0:58We will be, you know, I often love the fact that people will
- 1:03say things like, well she's got all of this or he's got All of
- 1:07this or this person has all of this and they get jealous of the
- 1:11fact that these people have all these things.
- 1:13And the reality is those people are working their butts off to
- 1:19get what they you know, have and the and be able to do all the
- 1:23things that they do. And you know, you're only seeing
- 1:26the tip of the iceberg and you're not seeing all the work
- 1:28that went in underneath. You're only seeing what's that?
- 1:32That outward look of stuff. You're not seeing anything
- 1:35underneath. And how Much they poured into
- 1:38themselves. And so it's really easy to sit
- 1:40there and say, I'm going to judge someone else's result and
- 1:44say, wow, this isn't fair. I want this blah, blah blah,
- 1:48blah, blah, blah. But you're not willing to pour
- 1:50in the work for yourself and sometimes this becomes Just A
- 1:55Moment of clarity when I say to people.
- 1:58Well, look ask yourself. What are you willing to do?
- 2:00Are you willing to work 13? Hour days if that's what it
- 2:03takes? Are you willing to study in and,
- 2:07you know, take Course that has 250 hours that you have to do to
- 2:10get the certifications. Are you willing to have the good
- 2:14attitude about doing it all and be happy, or just going to be
- 2:16miserable in the process? Because if you're going to be
- 2:18miserable while you're doing it, there's no point in doing it
- 2:21because the results will end up taking forever.
- 2:24Or by the time they get here, you won't even want them.
- 2:27Because you'll be so beaten up by the process.
- 2:30You got to have a good attitude about doing it all, and you've
- 2:33got to be excited about doing it on.
- 2:34You got to say, listen, it's going to be work and it's going
- 2:36to be worth it. But sometimes we get so caught
- 2:40up in this, you know, Vortex of not being able to see past it
- 2:45and and not recognizing that all this comes down to what are we
- 2:50willing to do? What are we willing to do?
- 2:54And and really being honest with ourselves?
- 2:57Again, you'll find that a lot of our conversations are going to
- 3:00loop back to honesty because when we're not honest with
- 3:02ourselves you know it's it absolutely rips us.
- 3:07Part because we're constantly living in that state of Wyoming
- 3:10to ourselves and we're never able to get the outcomes that we
- 3:13want. So take this podcast for
- 3:15instance, when I said I was going to start shooting a
- 3:18podcast, I had to really dig deep to say.
- 3:23Well if I'm going to do these little segments and I'm going to
- 3:25have them, be five minutes a day.
- 3:27Am I willing to do it every single day?
- 3:29Am I willing to go out there and make this every single day and I
- 3:34waited a long time before I answer that question.
- 3:37Kitchen because I kept going back and forth with myself and
- 3:40making sure I could get happy enough and excited enough to do
- 3:44it. Well, as soon as I realized, I
- 3:45could do it where it from my happy place, which is my chicken
- 3:48coop, it was an, it was a no brainer.
- 3:51Yes, I can absolutely do it and I thought of it that way, the
- 3:55moment I said I'm going to shoot this with the chickens and then
- 3:58boom. All is well, so point being you
- 4:01can get yourself there but you have to be willing to ask the
- 4:04right questions. When I was asking the question,
- 4:07you know. Shoot a podcast, go out there
- 4:09and record wherever, you know, get in there and give people
- 4:12your information, it all sounded great because I definitely
- 4:15wanted to help everybody. But there wasn't a connection.
- 4:18An emotional connection for me where I could just get in.
- 4:21And be like, hell, yeah. And as soon as I figured that
- 4:24out and kept asking that question of myself, finding
- 4:27those little pieces that I could connect the dots and doing it.
- 4:30Then I was like, okay, yep, I'm willing to do it and then yes,
- 4:34I'm willing to do it every day because that's what it takes.
- 4:37This brain work takes every day. As I've said before, every day,
- 4:43you can't just cut the slack. You can't take a day off because
- 4:47if you take a day off, it's like not brushing your teeth for a
- 4:50day and we all know how nasty that is.
- 4:52So today I'm going to ask you to check in with yourself and see.
- 4:58What am I willing to do? What am I willing to do for
- 5:01myself and not just, you know, in a blip?
- 5:04What am I really willing to dig into?
- 5:06Am I willing to Just even just say to yourself and listen, no
- 5:10matter what. I'm just going to focus on my
- 5:11happiness. I'm just going to focus on
- 5:14internally with nothing external driving, it just be happy and if
- 5:18that's the case then that's going to shift lots of things in
- 5:21your world but if you're willing to do it boy oh boy that is a
- 5:24lot of work because you're going to run into things constantly to
- 5:27make you not happy. But if you're willing to do it
- 5:30it will work for you. So get out there figure out
- 5:34where are those parts where you can jump in and Side.
- 5:38Am I willing to do this for myself and my willing to do this
- 5:41work? And I will see you tomorrow.
- 5:44Have a blessed day everybody.
