• 0:23
  chickens Hey everybody. Good morning from the chicken
• 0:29
  coop. So let's talk labels.
• 0:33
  I'm not talking about labels in your clothes or your laundry or
• 0:36
  things like that or or packaging.
• 0:37
  I'm talking labels, we give each other and most likely the ones
• 0:42
  we give ourselves because they're the worst ones of all we
• 0:45
  don't think about. We don't explore the full aspect
• 0:50
  of what happens when we put a label on ourselves.
• 0:52
  And so often the things that we say about ourselves, we know
• 0:57
  we've talked about mine chattering how disruptive it can
• 0:59
  be, but the labels that we give ourselves our.
• 1:02
  So, Often not healthy, not conducive to the people, we want
• 1:08
  to be. And that's what this is about.
• 1:11
  So I and we have talked before about how you know what you
• 1:14
  think about yourself matters and how you approach yourself in all
• 1:18
  things matter. But today, we're going to talk
• 1:21
  about how we give ourselves labels and we have to actually
• 1:25
  stop and pause and say, are these labels from who I
• 1:29
  currently am or are they late? Labels for who I want to be.
• 1:34
  Because so often we are constantly talking about who we
• 1:38
  currently are, but we're not living in to the person that we
• 1:41
  actually desire to be. We're actually focused on the
• 1:44
  person that we are not realizing it.
• 1:47
  So we all want to be better, we all want to grow.
• 1:49
  We all want to expand, we all want to get more in touch with
• 1:54
  that higher identity of ourselves.
• 1:56
  But the problem is, we don't speak to that identity.
• 1:59
  We speak to the one that we currently are exhausted.
• 2:02
  I'm overwhelmed. I-i'm, I can't find a way to
• 2:05
  move forward. I don't know what to do.
• 2:07
  I'm confused. I am so stressed out.
• 2:10
  I'm so stressed out all the time.
• 2:12
  I can't figure out how to get out of stress, we Loop and loop
• 2:16
  and Loop in the things that don't work and we rarely stop
• 2:20
  and say, wait a minute, are these labels, the iems, that the
• 2:25
  easiest way to figure out what labels you're giving yourself.
• 2:28
  Are you using the phrase? I am.
• 2:31
  And where is that? Directing you is it directing
• 2:34
  you to the person that you currently are or is it directing
• 2:37
  you to the person you want to be?
• 2:39
  Because they matter if I want to be like a let's say let's go
• 2:46
  back. A great example.
• 2:46
  Is this podcast because in the beginning I was not a podcaster
• 2:49
  and I have friends who are podcasters and if I said I'm a
• 2:53
  podcaster instantly my brains like uh no, you're not so
• 2:57
  stressful. I don't know how I'm going to do
• 2:58
  this. How am I going to make this
• 2:59
  work? What am I going to say to
• 3:00
  people? Not sure how to do this.
• 3:02
  So all of the fear comes up in those moments because I go to
• 3:06
  say something and it's feels freakish to me because I wasn't
• 3:12
  entertaining. The Simplicity one step at a
• 3:15
  time, one step at a time one step at a time I was looking at
• 3:18
  it from my friends perspective of where he is being a big-time
• 3:22
  podcast with tens of millions of downloads.
• 3:26
  So I had to go back and say, no, I am a podcaster.
• 3:31
  As soon as I put up one episode, I'm a podcaster.
• 3:34
  I don't have to see it at from the end.
• 3:36
  I have to only see it right now from where I am and then I can
• 3:39
  calm down and I can move forward, but when I keep going,
• 3:42
  well, I'm comfortable, I'm not sure what I want to say.
• 3:46
  You know, I've never done this before, I'm not speaking to the
• 3:49
  person that I want to be. I'm speaking to the person I
• 3:52
  currently am and that sucked because it wasn't where I wanted
• 3:55
  to be because I really wanted to do this and I really wanted to
• 3:57
  bring something forward that could help people everyday and
• 4:01
  the Judges, we do this and we don't even pay attention to what
• 4:04
  we're saying. We don't pay attention to how we
• 4:06
  show up with it and before, you know here you are you're just
• 4:11
  stuck in the same spot and as we come up on the end of the year,
• 4:15
  you know, today beginning of November, we come up at the end
• 4:19
  of the year and we are no further along in what we wanted
• 4:23
  to do. Or be more importantly, the be
• 4:25
  aspect of it. Then we were at the beginning of
• 4:29
  the year and here we are with with two months left in the
• 4:32
  year. So that's why we're having this
• 4:35
  conversation. Because time is of the essence
• 4:38
  time is ticking. Tick-Tock Tick-Tock and it goes
• 4:43
  by quickly. And if you don't decide to
• 4:45
  change something or change this the labels you give yourself.
• 4:49
  You will stay stuck right in the same spot that you are in.
• 4:53
  You will not move forward, you will continue to stay right
• 4:57
  where you are, and that's the worst feeling of all.
• 5:00
  When you're Frozen and you. Can't move forward because
• 5:03
  you're in your own way. You are your own Iceberg.
• 5:06
  You are the one who has the cement boots on yourself.
• 5:09
  You are the one who has the key to the cage, and you've locked
• 5:13
  yourself in the cage, but you have the key.
• 5:16
  So, today, I'm going to ask you guys to really listen into
• 5:20
  yourself, see where your I am phrases, are see where you're
• 5:23
  holding your back, see where the labels are that you need to
• 5:26
  shift because if you don't shift those labels, nothing else will
• 5:30
  shift. If you have to do it, you have
• 5:33
  to pay attention to this piece. So go discover the labels.
• 5:37
  Figure out what you want to shift and speak to the person
• 5:39
  that you want to be. Not the person you currently
• 5:41
  are. I hope you guys have a blessed
• 5:43
  day and I will see you all tomorrow.
• 5:46
  Bye.
