• 0:21
  her chicken coop along with all her chickens.
• 0:27
  Hey, everybody. Good morning.
• 0:29
  From the chicken coop. So Franklin Roosevelt said, and
• 0:35
  I quote, believe you can, and you're halfway there now.
• 0:39
  I. Can't stress enough how much
• 0:43
  this is true because I am in people's heads every day I have
• 0:47
  the gift of. And the pleasure of being in
• 0:51
  clients heads all the time, talking to them about what they
• 0:53
  want to accomplish, what they want to do, what they think is
• 0:56
  possible, creating, tearing things down, making things
• 1:00
  better. And I will tell you without
• 1:03
  question, the biggest thing that I deal with is the fact that
• 1:06
  they don't believe in themselves.
• 1:08
  They have to have this, you know, concept run by. 25 people
• 1:15
  of whatever they're working on, they want to talk to people
• 1:17
  about it. They want to get, you know, have
• 1:19
  somebody help them cultivate it. They want to get that you know,
• 1:23
  the compliments on their ideas before they even want to run out
• 1:26
  and do it. And one of the hardest things
• 1:28
  that I work on them with is that you've got to be quiet, keep it
• 1:32
  to yourself, make decisions and be your own best advocate.
• 1:35
  Don't tell people what you're doing.
• 1:37
  Keep it to yourself because. You've got to believe in
• 1:40
  yourself and you can't believe in yourself.
• 1:42
  If other people are telling you what's not going to work and
• 1:46
  what President Roosevelt said believe you can and you're
• 1:50
  halfway there, I'm going to stretch it even further.
• 1:53
  You're more than 3/4 of the way there because you've got to keep
• 1:57
  believing in yourself. You know, I I would have never
• 1:59
  in a million years thought that I could have created all the
• 2:03
  stuff that I have with this farm and all that I have going with
• 2:07
  it. My.
• 2:08
  Chickens that are just like pets, not scary, kept in the
• 2:12
  coop, chickens doing their job of laying eggs.
• 2:15
  This whole environment that I've created out here was a vision
• 2:19
  that I had. And when I was younger, I would
• 2:22
  talk about it and people would laugh at me and they'd be like,
• 2:24
  that's like weird. Why would you just want to work
• 2:27
  towards having that? And I'm like.
• 2:29
  Because it everything about it speaks to the nature of the
• 2:33
  universe and how things grow and how they, you know, they expand
• 2:37
  and you're always an expansion. And on the farm you're always
• 2:39
  learning and expanding and people would laugh about it and
• 2:43
  then I stopped talking about it and then I just did it.
• 2:46
  And I always believed without question that I could make any
• 2:49
  of this happen. In fact, I am probably one of
• 2:53
  the most ardent supporters of tell nobody what you're doing.
• 2:59
  Find one or two people that can be your advocate.
• 3:02
  So I love being a coach because that's what I do.
• 3:04
  People will come and they'll say I have a dream of doing
• 3:06
  something and I'm like, alright, let's make it happen.
• 3:08
  And then I figure out what's stopping them, what beliefs are
• 3:10
  stopping them, and then we work towards getting them in that
• 3:13
  right headspace and making it happen.
• 3:16
  Right now I have someone who's about ready to announce that her
• 3:19
  book is finished, and I can tell you that this melted me.
• 3:24
  In so many ways, because she truly didn't believe that she
• 3:28
  could get this done, she thought for sure that it would not work
• 3:31
  out, that she was not a good writer, that it was not going to
• 3:34
  be a great example for her to a great example at all to give out
• 3:41
  to people. And when it's now that we have,
• 3:46
  you know, finished it and it's. Waiting for proofs.
• 3:50
  She is so excited. She's like, I can't believe it.
• 3:53
  I I just can't believe it. But did she have doubts along
• 3:57
  the way, 1000% did I have to recalibrate?
• 4:00
  1000% didn't she keep pushing herself 1,000,000% And she
• 4:04
  pushed and pushed and pushed and I'm like, Nope, we're not going
• 4:07
  there. We don't do that.
• 4:07
  Remember, she's like, right, We don't do that And we kept doing
• 4:10
  it over and over and over and now when those samples get
• 4:15
  delivered. This coming week, she is going
• 4:17
  to be absolutely astonished and excited and proud and tearful
• 4:24
  about her accomplishment. So I'm going to remind you all
• 4:28
  anything is possible. When you believe that you can,
• 4:32
  you could. It's.
• 4:33
  You're 3/4 of the way there as far as I'm concerned.
• 4:36
  I know I'm president said halfway.
• 4:37
  But I'm going to tell you it's 3/4 of the.
• 4:40
  It's the mechanics that get in the way and those are easy to
• 4:43
  solve. It's the head stuff.
• 4:46
  That is the the the part that takes you out before you even
• 4:50
  start. So do yourself the favor and
• 4:53
  decide to believe in yourself like nobody else will.
• 4:56
  Put on rose colored glasses. Don't listen to the crap that's
• 4:59
  out there. Don't listen to the detractors.
• 5:01
  Don't listen to the people who are not your fans and and say
• 5:05
  it's not possible because anything is possible when you
• 5:08
  put your mind in the right headspace.
• 5:12
  I hope you have a blessed day, and I hope you decide to believe
• 5:14
  in yourself, because there's nothing better and more positive
• 5:18
  than knowing and believing in yourself.
• 5:21
  All right, my friends, go get it done.
• 5:25
  Bye.
