Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Hey there, everybody.
- 0:03Speaker 2: It's Sunday, November eighth, and we are asking you how
- 0:08Speaker 2: happy are you right now? Take a beat think about it,
- 0:12Speaker 2: because today we're talking about the balance between happiness and
- 0:16Speaker 2: unhappiness and the one toxic trait that kills most relationships.
- 0:20Speaker 2: According to experts, it's one of the top four reasons
- 0:22Speaker 2: for divorce.
- 0:24Speaker 3: It kills your happiness or it kills your relationship.
- 0:26Speaker 2: It kills your relationship. Okay, but how happy are you
- 0:30Speaker 2: right now?
- 0:31Speaker 3: In life?
- 0:31Speaker 4: We're in my relationship because those are two different I'm sorry.
- 0:34Speaker 4: I don't really don't know the direction we were going
- 0:36Speaker 4: with this, so I'll stand.
- 0:36Speaker 1: By no, how happy are you generally not?
- 0:39Speaker 2: I mean, your relationship obviously weighs into your happiness, and
- 0:42Speaker 2: we'll get into that.
- 0:43Speaker 4: Didn't I sound sincere? We actually are as we record this,
- 0:46Speaker 4: we are in Miami. You already put it out there
- 0:48Speaker 4: and told everybody where we were So sorry. But I
- 0:52Speaker 4: was on the stage last night, and what did you
- 0:54Speaker 4: hear me say sincerely to that crowd?
- 0:56Speaker 1: You said, I'm the happiest and healthiest I've been in
- 1:00Speaker 1: my life.
- 1:00Speaker 3: There, So there's your answer.
- 1:02Speaker 1: All right? And I would also say that I to feel.
- 1:06Speaker 2: Happy, and look, you're supposed to feel unhappy too, And
- 1:09Speaker 2: that's one of the really interesting things. So most people,
- 1:11Speaker 2: and I think this is true, we spend our lives
- 1:13Speaker 2: chasing happiness and avoiding or running away from from unhappiness.
- 1:18Speaker 4: Would you say that that's standard stuff? Is what you're
- 1:19Speaker 4: suposed to do. What are you talking about here? I
- 1:21Speaker 4: don't know where are we going with this?
- 1:22Speaker 1: All right?
- 1:23Speaker 2: So a behavioral science scientist and happiness expert, he's a
- 1:28Speaker 2: professor at Harvard, just gave an interview about the balance
- 1:31Speaker 2: between happiness and unhappiness, and he said that those two
- 1:34Speaker 2: emotions are actually processed in different hemispheres of your brain,
- 1:38Speaker 2: and you need both.
- 1:40Speaker 3: I need to be unhappy. Yes, why does this you said, Harvard?
- 1:43Speaker 4: Yeah, it doesn't automatically mean you have credentials by it.
- 1:46Speaker 3: I'm kidding. Obviously we have to listen to this guy.
- 1:49Speaker 2: But because he said, you need to have those those
- 1:52Speaker 2: moments of unhappiness so that you can process what's going
- 1:56Speaker 2: wrong in your life. If you never felt unhappy or uncomfortable,
- 1:59Speaker 2: you would never change, you would never grow, you would
- 2:01Speaker 2: never make adjustments.
- 2:02Speaker 4: Do you need to if you're not unhappy? I'm saying,
- 2:05Speaker 4: if you're not feeling unhappy, what do I need to adjust?
- 2:09Speaker 2: This very important and respected and intelligent Harvard professor says
- 2:15Speaker 2: that it's important to feel unhappy.
- 2:16Speaker 4: So you're telling me my University of Arkansas education should
- 2:19Speaker 4: not be challenging this guy.
- 2:20Speaker 3: Okay, go ahead, I'm listening.
- 2:21Speaker 2: This was interesting. How I'm curious because I was shocked
- 2:24Speaker 2: by these numbers. I got these from a twenty twenty
- 2:27Speaker 2: four poll. Here the most recent happiness global survey. How
- 2:31Speaker 2: many adults? What percentage of adults do you think report
- 2:36Speaker 2: being happy?
- 2:37Speaker 3: Is a country breakdown?
- 2:39Speaker 1: We will get into that there is a country breakdown.
- 2:42Speaker 3: I think that would make a huge difference.
- 2:44Speaker 4: But the other thing I'm trying to factor in is
- 2:46Speaker 4: how many people are going to be honest about it? Like,
- 2:48Speaker 4: who wants to admit actually that they're not happy?
- 2:50Speaker 1: So overall, globally, overall.
- 2:53Speaker 3: How many say they're happy?
- 2:55Speaker 1: Yep?
- 2:55Speaker 3: I would go sixty five percent.
- 2:58Speaker 1: Dang, you're good. Sixty four percent.
- 3:01Speaker 2: Two thirds of adults report being happy, and fourteen percent report.
- 3:06Speaker 1: Being very happy.
- 3:07Speaker 3: Lies.
- 3:08Speaker 1: Fourteen percent though it's much smaller.
- 3:11Speaker 3: Actually, that's higher than I thought.
- 3:12Speaker 2: Yes, save, I was surprised, so countries with the highest
- 3:16Speaker 2: proportion of adults considering themselves as very happy.
- 3:20Speaker 4: Okay, the country break down? How many countries I got
- 3:23Speaker 4: to consider here.
- 3:24Speaker 1: All of them?
- 3:25Speaker 3: Who would be happiest?
- 3:26Speaker 1: Okay?
- 3:26Speaker 2: Of the ones that are the happiest one, two, three, four,
- 3:30Speaker 2: and then there are two like honorable mentions.
- 3:32Speaker 1: So you can have six countries that are in that
- 3:34Speaker 1: top don't care.
- 3:35Speaker 4: Isn't it always what is it Switzerland and Sweden? And
- 3:38Speaker 4: isn't it always in that area?
- 3:40Speaker 1: I would have guessed that too, But all.
- 3:42Speaker 3: The time they always say those folks are happier.
- 3:44Speaker 2: It's I would have they say they have a higher
- 3:46Speaker 2: quality of life, would lead to better happiness, of course.
- 3:50Speaker 2: But number one Canada twenty nine percent. And then there's
- 3:54Speaker 2: a three way tie for two Australia, Saudi Arabia and India.
- 4:00Speaker 2: And India actually has been like consistently when you look
- 4:03Speaker 2: at the annual reports, India is at the highest.
- 4:06Speaker 3: Well, they're all this is for what for the happiest people?
- 4:09Speaker 1: Yeah, yep.
- 4:09Speaker 2: And then the Great Britain and the United States twenty
- 4:12Speaker 2: seven percent, so very close behind.
- 4:14Speaker 3: Twenty seven percent of Americans say they're happy.
- 4:16Speaker 1: Yep.
- 4:17Speaker 3: That's bad. Only a quarter of the three hundred and.
- 4:21Speaker 1: Very happy, very happy?
- 4:23Speaker 3: Now I think it's too high.
- 4:25Speaker 2: Now, what are the countries that have the lowest percentage
- 4:30Speaker 2: of people who say they are not happy at all?
- 4:32Speaker 3: Okay?
- 4:32Speaker 4: Are any of these third world? Or are we talking
- 4:34Speaker 4: about Western modern societies here?
- 4:38Speaker 1: Two of them are considered third world, one of them not.
- 4:41Speaker 3: So there's three that are of some unhappy. I wouldn't know.
- 4:45Speaker 3: Where have we been that people look miserable? Have we
- 4:47Speaker 3: been to these places?
- 4:48Speaker 2: I have been to these places, but I would not
- 4:50Speaker 2: have put these I probably shouldn't say who I've seen
- 4:54Speaker 2: to be the most unhappy collectively as a country. But
- 4:57Speaker 2: number one at the bottom is argent Tina nineteen percent.
- 5:01Speaker 1: Least happy, least happy.
- 5:03Speaker 3: Probably all constipated.
- 5:06Speaker 1: That they're they're nineteen percent say that, yeah, that they're
- 5:08Speaker 1: not happy.
- 5:08Speaker 2: So Argentina, Turkey next, and then Japan that not happy,
- 5:14Speaker 2: not happy. That surprised me, really why because I just
- 5:18Speaker 2: feel like they have order and structure in their country.
- 5:21Speaker 3: They it doesn't include happiness or instructure.
- 5:24Speaker 1: You're right, they have to do what they're told. That
- 5:26Speaker 1: is very true. Okay, all right, now, it's room to.
- 5:29Speaker 3: Be happy or unhappy.
- 5:30Speaker 2: You know, we did a story about the happiness you curve.
- 5:34Speaker 1: Remember we did this in Morning Run.
- 5:36Speaker 2: I believe maybe we even did a full podcast on
- 5:38Speaker 2: it when they have aged. Yes, yes, do you remember
- 5:40Speaker 2: we are happiest in old age. People in their sixties
- 5:44Speaker 2: and seventies are most likely to say they're happy seventy
- 5:47Speaker 2: five percent and seventy six percent.
- 5:50Speaker 1: Those are huge.
- 5:51Speaker 3: Older people are happy.
- 5:52Speaker 2: Are happy, and we I think we said it was
- 5:55Speaker 2: like forty eight, but they in this poll they said
- 5:57Speaker 2: those in their fifties are the least happy. So starting
- 5:59Speaker 2: at a forty eight forty nine up until about fifty eight,
- 6:02Speaker 2: so we're in the throes of unhappiness.
- 6:04Speaker 4: I thought the thing we did was it would show
- 6:06Speaker 4: that the unhappiest to you are in your life is
- 6:08Speaker 4: like forty seven point two forty.
- 6:09Speaker 3: Or something like that. But I thought it starts going
- 6:10Speaker 3: back up.
- 6:11Speaker 1: This one said not until like fifty six fifty seven.
- 6:14Speaker 3: There's this the Harvard gun again.
- 6:17Speaker 2: All right, this what makes you happy? Because I've got
- 6:21Speaker 2: the top three things that make you happy?
- 6:23Speaker 3: Nothing nothing makes me happy.
- 6:26Speaker 1: You know what that reads?
- 6:27Speaker 4: Absolutely nothing makes me happy. Something can add to or
- 6:31Speaker 4: take away from. But I'm good and I have to
- 6:34Speaker 4: be you have to think that way. I mean, I
- 6:36Speaker 4: had to train myself over the past five plus years
- 6:38Speaker 4: of this. But you if I am saying, oh, man,
- 6:41Speaker 4: everything's gonna be good as soon as I get this
- 6:42Speaker 4: new job. Oh everything's gonna be good as soon as
- 6:44Speaker 4: I move into this new place. So everything, if these
- 6:46Speaker 4: things can make you happy, or oh she makes me happy,
- 6:49Speaker 4: he makes me We talk about this all the time.
- 6:51Speaker 4: You should not give away your power, essentially by saying
- 6:55Speaker 4: this other thing is necessary to make happy.
- 6:57Speaker 3: So what. There are plenty of things that I add.
- 6:59Speaker 4: To travel, you and I get on a plane together,
- 7:03Speaker 4: a great horror movie, great food, having people in the
- 7:06Speaker 4: house cooking.
- 7:07Speaker 3: I enjoy that they add to my happiness.
- 7:09Speaker 2: You know what, It's funny because I agree, and I've
- 7:12Speaker 2: always well recently in recent you're subscribed to this, don't
- 7:15Speaker 2: give away your power. It's upon you to regulate yourself.
- 7:20Speaker 2: You can't expect someone else to do it for you. However,
- 7:22Speaker 2: it's funny. You won't even take credit when I say
- 7:24Speaker 2: something like you made me laugh or you made me smile,
- 7:27Speaker 2: or you made me You're like, I can't make you
- 7:29Speaker 2: do anyhing. You won't even take credit for the good
- 7:32Speaker 2: stuff because you don't want to be blamed for the
- 7:33Speaker 2: bad stuff.
- 7:34Speaker 3: What do I say?
- 7:34Speaker 4: If I can make you do anything, then why can't
- 7:37Speaker 4: I make you be quiet? That's using my response jokingly.
- 7:42Speaker 1: I know you're kidding.
- 7:43Speaker 2: I know. I mean, yes, I know your humor. It
- 7:46Speaker 2: does make me laugh, whether you want to believe it
- 7:48Speaker 2: or not. So what makes us happy? According to this
- 7:51Speaker 2: this is now a twenty twenty four pole.
- 7:54Speaker 3: What makes people happy?
- 7:55Speaker 2: Yep?
- 7:55Speaker 3: Kind of guess is it? Is it? Money? Is money
- 7:59Speaker 3: in there anywhere?
- 8:00Speaker 1: They do bring that up, but it is not. Number
- 8:02Speaker 1: one makes people?
- 8:04Speaker 3: Okay, go ahead, Then what.
- 8:05Speaker 1: Makes us happy? My family and my children.
- 8:09Speaker 4: Where's the list of what things that make me unhappy?
- 8:11Speaker 4: I've been at the top as well.
- 8:13Speaker 2: I've got I agree with you completely. Number two feeling
- 8:17Speaker 2: appreciated and loved. Totally agree. If you feel appreciated and loved,
- 8:22Speaker 2: it does bring a happiness to you. And number three
- 8:26Speaker 2: this I agree. Feeling in control of my life.
- 8:30Speaker 4: Makes you feel happy? Yeah, oh my god, I let
- 8:33Speaker 4: that one go. Who is in control of their life?
- 8:36Speaker 4: Please let me hear this. It's an an illusion.
- 8:39Speaker 2: It's this feeling in control my life, not being in control,
- 8:43Speaker 2: feeling in control. So financial situation I actually put this interesting.
- 8:47Speaker 2: Financial situation came in at number five, so lower than
- 8:50Speaker 2: you would think. And this one really surprised me. But
- 8:54Speaker 2: this is about what makes you happy. Physical health and
- 8:56Speaker 2: well being only came in at eight, and I think
- 8:59Speaker 2: that I was trying to get my head around that,
- 9:00Speaker 2: because when you're feeling happy, you're not thinking about your health.
- 9:04Speaker 2: You're not even appreciating it because you haven't experienced the opposite.
- 9:07Speaker 2: So if you've always felt good and you you're healthy,
- 9:10Speaker 2: you're not really recognizing how much that does contribute to
- 9:15Speaker 2: your happiness and joy.
- 9:16Speaker 4: I wonder if it was a breakdown of demographics, if
- 9:18Speaker 4: older people have that higher on.
- 9:20Speaker 2: Their list, yes, I would think, So what makes us unhappy?
- 9:23Speaker 2: The number one was your financial situation unhappy?
- 9:26Speaker 1: Yow, So there you go.
- 9:28Speaker 2: It doesn't having money doesn't necessarily make you happy happy,
- 9:31Speaker 2: but not having money makes you unhappy?
- 9:34Speaker 4: Wait a minute, then those things should be If not
- 9:36Speaker 4: having it makes you unhappy, then having it should make
- 9:40Speaker 4: you happy?
- 9:40Speaker 3: Is that not worth?
- 9:41Speaker 2: But isn't that interesting that that's not what this study showed?
- 9:45Speaker 2: And so this was this was again from our Harvard
- 9:48Speaker 2: professor who I've been talking about.
- 9:51Speaker 1: Oh no, I've got it. It's up here. I just didn't.
- 9:53Speaker 1: I just didn't say it all that.
- 9:54Speaker 2: Arthur Brooks is his name, And Arthur Brooks talked about
- 9:58Speaker 2: how we manage when we are unhappy negative emotions, and
- 10:02Speaker 2: he said there are some people who experience them more intensely.
- 10:06Speaker 1: Would you agree with that?
- 10:07Speaker 3: Who experience negative emotions? Do you experience them or you
- 10:11Speaker 3: express them more intensely? Right?
- 10:13Speaker 4: Is your pain worse than mine? Or I'm just better
- 10:15Speaker 4: at expressing myself and not getting as upset.
- 10:18Speaker 2: He is saying that some people actually experience more mental
- 10:21Speaker 2: anguish than others. And I would think, like, if you
- 10:23Speaker 2: think about brain chemistry and how we inherit that that's
- 10:26Speaker 2: kind of a part of our DNA. I know that
- 10:29Speaker 2: just even seeing my children, one child is generally happier
- 10:33Speaker 2: than the other. And that's just and they were born
- 10:35Speaker 2: that way when they were babies.
- 10:36Speaker 3: Wait, which one is the happier one?
- 10:40Speaker 1: That's funny, I think, And I guess I thank you
- 10:43Speaker 1: already now.
- 10:43Speaker 2: But so he calls these people high negative effect individuals
- 10:49Speaker 2: negative effect, Okay, and so, and he said the quickest
- 10:52Speaker 2: way that people go to try and manage all of
- 10:54Speaker 2: this is the unhealthy ways, which drugs, alcohol, technology as
- 10:58Speaker 2: a distraction. So you go and you just you're feeling
- 11:01Speaker 2: like craps. You go and you just scroll on Instagram
- 11:03Speaker 2: and you just doom scroll.
- 11:05Speaker 4: All those things are the same thing. You're essentially looking
- 11:07Speaker 4: for a distraction from the way you feel.
- 11:08Speaker 2: Correct correct, And so that is one of the worst
- 11:12Speaker 2: things you can do in terms of managing unhappiness.
- 11:16Speaker 4: Well, folks, we'll continue on how you should manage your unhappiness,
- 11:20Speaker 4: but we are going to hit on exactly what maybe
- 11:24Speaker 4: you should be doing to improve your situation. Stay here, folks,
- 11:27Speaker 4: whether you are happy or unhappy, we want you to
- 11:30Speaker 4: keep listening.
- 11:31Speaker 3: Stay here.
- 11:40Speaker 2: We continue our conversation now about how many of us
- 11:43Speaker 2: are happy, how many of us are unhappy, and how
- 11:46Speaker 2: we manage some of those negative feelings. And according to
- 11:50Speaker 2: our Harvard professor, the first thing you should do is
- 11:52Speaker 2: ask yourself, why am I doing that? Why am I
- 11:56Speaker 2: feeling this? You need to get curious about your pain,
- 11:59Speaker 2: why you're feeling the way you exactly, so once you
- 12:01Speaker 2: kind of understand it, it helps you tackle it and
- 12:04Speaker 2: figure out what you can do about it.
- 12:05Speaker 1: And he says, your best outlet.
- 12:07Speaker 2: What do you think your best outlet is for negative
- 12:09Speaker 2: emotions and unhappiness?
- 12:11Speaker 4: Is it not another person? Not talking to somebody? An
- 12:15Speaker 4: outlet for your emotions? You're not gonna say like giving back?
- 12:19Speaker 4: He Nope, volunteer all the time.
- 12:23Speaker 2: You know, I do believe that when you can't help yourself,
- 12:25Speaker 2: if you help someone else, it does elevate everybody. It is.
- 12:29Speaker 2: But you're gonna know this one you just start thinking
- 12:31Speaker 2: about it. Exercise number one best way if you are
- 12:35Speaker 2: feeling down, go to the gym, Go for a run,
- 12:37Speaker 2: go for a walk.
- 12:38Speaker 1: It one hundred percent helps.
- 12:40Speaker 4: Yeah, go to the gym, see all those hot people.
- 12:43Speaker 4: That should make you feel better about what you're going through.
- 12:45Speaker 2: And then he also describes, and a lot of folks
- 12:48Speaker 2: will agree with this, a metaphysical or spiritual connection. So
- 12:51Speaker 2: whether you're praying to God, you're meditating, you're doing your yoga.
- 12:55Speaker 2: But whatever spiritual connection, divine connection, you need that that
- 12:59Speaker 2: genuinely helps when you're feeling unhappy or down. So he
- 13:02Speaker 2: says the two best ways for you to manage your anxiety,
- 13:05Speaker 2: this is a quote, get in touch with your faith
- 13:07Speaker 2: or spirituality and go pick up heavy things and run around.
- 13:12Speaker 3: Okay, is there a third option?
- 13:15Speaker 2: No? So he said, physical activity and exercise and spiritual
- 13:18Speaker 2: activity are a heck of a lot better for your
- 13:21Speaker 2: mental health, including your relationship.
- 13:24Speaker 3: Spiritual not just religious. I'm making it correct, right, correct.
- 13:26Speaker 2: And so speaking of relationships, he goes into this, and
- 13:29Speaker 2: this was something I teased at the very top, and
- 13:32Speaker 2: this was so interesting. One of the worst ways to
- 13:35Speaker 2: manage negative emotions and the number one toxic trait to
- 13:40Speaker 2: hurt your relationship is constant excessive work or what he
- 13:46Speaker 2: calls workaholism. And that's the headline actually that got me
- 13:50Speaker 2: to click on this initial article, and I thought, wow,
- 13:54Speaker 2: I never considered that, And I went and looked and
- 13:57Speaker 2: did some more research, and several groups of lawyers whatever,
- 14:00Speaker 2: they collect data about what the leading causes of divorce is,
- 14:04Speaker 2: and workaholism, they say is in the top four reasons
- 14:08Speaker 2: why people get divorced.
- 14:09Speaker 4: So what are we talk Are we just talking about
- 14:11Speaker 4: someone dedicated? You're essentially ignoring your relationship by putting more
- 14:14Speaker 4: time into work than your relationship with.
- 14:16Speaker 2: That yep, So Brooks says most workaholics today are actually
- 14:19Speaker 2: not required to do so by their boss. It's almost
- 14:23Speaker 2: always self imposed. So they he said, most workaholics are
- 14:27Speaker 2: their own tyrannical bosses. And he said this, there has
- 14:31Speaker 2: never been a workaholic who had a functional relationship.
- 14:35Speaker 3: That's untrue.
- 14:36Speaker 4: Now, Okay, out of Jokinbasm or earlier stuff, he can
- 14:39Speaker 4: feel that way.
- 14:41Speaker 2: Then we have different Some estimates suggest that marriages where
- 14:45Speaker 2: at least one spouse is a workaholic are twice as
- 14:49Speaker 2: likely to fail. That's the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers.
- 14:53Speaker 3: You know, they bunch a Harvard guys as well.
- 14:56Speaker 2: Yes, but I'm going to give here's here's a quote
- 14:59Speaker 2: from Brooks that I think will help clear this up. Okay,
- 15:02Speaker 2: most workaholics are distracting themselves from things in their life
- 15:06Speaker 2: that they don't like. And they know they're super good
- 15:09Speaker 2: at work, and they can get into kind of a
- 15:12Speaker 2: zone when they're working and they don't think about the
- 15:14Speaker 2: things they don't want to be thinking about. That is
- 15:17Speaker 2: where workaholism generally comes from.
- 15:19Speaker 3: Can you read the first part of the Again.
- 15:20Speaker 2: Most workaholics are distracting themselves from things in their life
- 15:24Speaker 2: that they don't like.
- 15:25Speaker 4: Okay, if I stop right there, then it's not you
- 15:29Speaker 4: being a workaholic. That's causing the problem in the relationship.
- 15:32Speaker 4: You are turning yourself into one because there's a problem
- 15:36Speaker 4: in your relationship. It's not lee, it's possible. I'm saying
- 15:39Speaker 4: there's a possibility. I just got chills when you said that.
- 15:41Speaker 4: The case one that has been my personal experience. When
- 15:46Speaker 4: I read this, a lot of this resonated with me.
- 15:50Speaker 2: I absolutely have said before that it feels as though
- 15:54Speaker 2: I was married to my job. That was the love
- 15:58Speaker 2: of my life. That was you know, even before children.
- 16:00Speaker 2: Obviously they are the loves of my life, but the
- 16:02Speaker 2: happy one and I guess I love them both equally,
- 16:06Speaker 2: just differently. But no, and I that makes sense. You're
- 16:12Speaker 2: you're pointing to something that hit me. Maybe it's a
- 16:16Speaker 2: symptom of a relationship problem versus you creating a problem
- 16:20Speaker 2: in your relationship. There, it is there, and I do
- 16:25Speaker 2: I do appreciate the next line. And they know they're
- 16:28Speaker 2: super good at work. So if you're also if you're
- 16:30Speaker 2: feeling like your relationship is terrible, but you know, when
- 16:33Speaker 2: you go to work, you feel like you've got a
- 16:36Speaker 2: sense of accomplishment and people say way to go. Yes,
- 16:39Speaker 2: that's going to fuel you because you're getting that that
- 16:42Speaker 2: feeling of validation and achievement, and if you're not getting
- 16:45Speaker 2: it in your relationship, if you're getting it there, that's
- 16:48Speaker 2: where you're going to spend most of your time.
- 16:49Speaker 3: It's that simple.
- 16:50Speaker 4: If I if I'm good at basketball and suck at golf,
- 16:52Speaker 4: I'm going to spend more time at basketball, and my
- 16:54Speaker 4: golf game's gonna hurt.
- 16:56Speaker 3: I mean, there's a sports analogy.
- 16:58Speaker 4: But if if you're ignoring this other thing, yes, we all,
- 17:01Speaker 4: I'm successful at this, I'm gonna.
- 17:02Speaker 3: Do the thing.
- 17:02Speaker 4: I'm good at this other thing, I'll keep it by
- 17:05Speaker 4: the side. Yes, that sucks and it's work, man, it's
- 17:07Speaker 4: a lot of well.
- 17:08Speaker 2: He suggests if you can recognize that and then turn
- 17:10Speaker 2: if you whatever, like, whatever you appreciate, appreciates, right, that's
- 17:13Speaker 2: what they say. So if you can turn that focus
- 17:16Speaker 2: onto your relationship, you might see major improvements.
- 17:19Speaker 3: So mister Brooks, so doctor brook.
- 17:21Speaker 2: Yes, Oh, I think it's something that we can all
- 17:26Speaker 2: think about and something that we can all use to improve.
- 17:28Speaker 2: I know, exercise for me has been I just I
- 17:30Speaker 2: felt validated when I read that because my runs have
- 17:32Speaker 2: been my therapy. I don't know what I would do
- 17:35Speaker 2: without that outlet.
- 17:36Speaker 4: Okay, I guess all of our listeners know that most
- 17:38Speaker 4: of our subjects here just for your validation, So I'm
- 17:41Speaker 4: glad we found another one to make you feel good
- 17:43Speaker 4: about yourself.
- 17:44Speaker 2: I just think everybody can appreciate some guidance about being
- 17:48Speaker 2: happy and how to avoid being unhappy. And with that, everyone,
- 17:52Speaker 2: we hope you have a very, very happy Sunday. I'm
