• 0:29
  Good morning from From spring forward.
• 0:32
  Always like don't love the whole concept of losing an hours sleep
• 0:37
  and I don't love the concept of somebody telling us that they
• 0:40
  can control the concept of time. When we're actually, the ones
• 0:45
  that can control how we see time, you know, speeding up
• 0:48
  forward, falling backwards, whatever it might be, but we
• 0:51
  have ultimate control over our perception of time.
• 0:55
  People are chronically, late people, some people are always
• 0:58
  on time, some people are early. It might be but spring forward
• 1:03
  is always interesting because if you ever noticed how many people
• 1:06
  complain about it constantly talking about it weeks
• 1:09
  beforehand, everyone's talking about.
• 1:11
  Oh we have to bring forward soon.
• 1:13
  The worst ever. I hate losing an hour sleep.
• 1:17
  It's terrible. Well, you know, I think this is
• 1:20
  a perfect example to use about how we talk ourselves into
• 1:24
  problems because I have to tell you yes, it is difficult
• 1:28
  biologically, they have said it over and over again.
• 1:30
  When it's difficult for the biology of our bodies to do
• 1:34
  these kind of things. So why do we do it?
• 1:37
  Why did it start off? Well, why it started off is not
• 1:40
  the reason why they continue to do it.
• 1:41
  It's just like that old story about the woman who had a recipe
• 1:47
  for ham and she took this ham out and she would make it, she
• 1:52
  wrote it on a recipe card and everybody loved her ham.
• 1:55
  And so her daughter asked her for the recipe card.
• 1:58
  She had it, she handed it to her.
• 2:01
  And her daughter and her granddaughter were making it one
• 2:04
  day. And out, they take out the ham
• 2:06
  and they chop off a big chunk of it and throw it away.
• 2:08
  And so, the daughter says to the her mother Mommy, why do you cut
• 2:13
  that big chunk of ham off? And she says, I don't know, it's
• 2:16
  on Nana's card. So when they Nana comes for
• 2:19
  dinner, she says to her Nana, how come you top that big chunk
• 2:24
  off the ham? We before you make it and she
• 2:27
  says, oh what? Oh no.
• 2:29
  That was just a reminder. To myself that I didn't have a
• 2:32
  pan big enough. And while you might laugh at
• 2:35
  that, that's how we do things. We do it because we've always
• 2:38
  done it. So this whole thing about
• 2:40
  complaining because we've always done, it is pretty standard,
• 2:46
  operating procedure and the today always reminds me of it
• 2:50
  because it reminds me of to work on making sure you're not
• 2:55
  complaining about things because ultimately, you have control.
• 2:57
  How you perceive them. Ultimately, you have control.
• 3:00
  The whole thing. Is it a nuisance?
• 3:02
  Yes. Does it really bother some
• 3:04
  people biologically? Yes.
• 3:07
  And hopefully they never make us do it again in the event that
• 3:10
  they don't. It's just a great example and a
• 3:13
  great reminder of the fact that we have to keep in check what we
• 3:17
  are willing to complain about did I like fact, I'm a very
• 3:20
  early morning person. Obviously, I'm out here with my
• 3:23
  chickens doing a podcast when I get them up in the morning or
• 3:27
  when they're already up, especially today.
• 3:30
  Because Cuz you know the locks changed.
• 3:33
  So didn't make a difference. I woke up but I woke up when I
• 3:37
  was supposed to wake up but then it was dark and then it got
• 3:39
  confusing for everybody and then I tried to fall back to sleep
• 3:43
  and that's what happens all the time.
• 3:44
  But am I going to complain about it?
• 3:46
  No. Am I going to allow it to screw
• 3:49
  up my whole day? Am I going to walk around
• 3:51
  telling myself? I'm screwed up?
• 3:52
  No, because for the great majority of us, we have control
• 3:58
  of our emotions. We can say this there.
• 4:00
  Yes. There are some people that
• 4:02
  cannot and they need chemical help and we have that for them.
• 4:05
  But for the rest of us, there is a great great number of us that
• 4:11
  can do this. We just have to stop letting
• 4:14
  them take over. And this day springing into this
• 4:19
  new time zone that we are in now, right?
• 4:23
  Because we're all shifting here into this new frame and spring
• 4:28
  is here all know that, right? Here we are in Spring.
• 4:32
  I'm getting ready to plant Gardens.
• 4:33
  I've got a bunch of roses to go in the ground today.
• 4:36
  Well that in itself, says New Life Begins, so turn over this
• 4:43
  new Leaf while all the leaves around, you might not be popping
• 4:47
  yet. They are where I am and I will
• 4:49
  say nothing is more glorious than watching this happen and
• 4:53
  being a part of it and saying I can actually partake in this, I
• 4:57
  can make things beautiful, I can This this Farm turned into
• 5:03
  something incredible and have you guys watched it in the
• 5:05
  process and really own the fact that you can grow whatever you
• 5:11
  want inside your mind because that's your space so don't allow
• 5:15
  this time change to kick your ass, just make a decision that
• 5:18
  it's not going to and go to bed earlier tonight.
• 5:23
  I mean that's the best thing I always think on those days just
• 5:25
  go to bed earlier and you'll just feel like oh so cozy just
• 5:29
  getting into bed. Early sometimes.
• 5:31
  Even if you lie there and watch a show, makes you just feel so
• 5:34
  much better. So I hope you guys have a
• 5:36
  blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
• 5:39
  Bye.
