Speaker 1: Hello, my friends from all across the globe, and welcome
0:20
Speaker 1: to your Enriched Self podcast. I am your host, Mi
0:24
Speaker 1: Lee Noir. I am an emotional wellness and empowerment coach
0:29
Speaker 1: and what that means is I am here for you.
0:31
Speaker 1: I've created this platform, this space that we meet and
0:35
Speaker 1: chat and discuss topics each and every week so that
0:39
Speaker 1: you can become more of your enriched self. And this
0:43
Speaker 1: podcast is all about not just what you say, but
0:47
Speaker 1: where it comes from. And it all starts in your mind.
0:49
Speaker 1: Every thought, everything that you're going to do in this
0:52
Speaker 1: life starts with an initial thought, a seed that was planted.
0:57
Speaker 1: And on this podcast, we find those seeds that were
1:00
Speaker 1: planted and we nourish them or we uproot the things
1:04
Speaker 1: that no longer serve you in this life. Because if
1:08
Speaker 1: you are listening to this podcast, I know that you
1:11
Speaker 1: want to be the best version of yourself. Now, if
1:15
Speaker 1: you are new to this podcast, I want to welcome
1:17
Speaker 1: you and thank you for being here, because I know
1:20
Speaker 1: that you are brought here on purpose, for a purpose.
1:24
Speaker 1: And if you are a repeat listener, thank you, thank you,
1:28
Speaker 1: thank you. We are and have been podcasting now for
1:33
Speaker 1: the last four years and we are over two hundred
1:39
Speaker 1: and thirty five episodes. I believe we're episode two thirty nine.
1:44
Speaker 1: So we have been doing this for quite some time.
1:47
Speaker 1: And the only way I could we could do this,
1:51
Speaker 1: because we're on a journey together, is with you. So
1:54
Speaker 1: for those of you who've been listening for a long
1:58
Speaker 1: time or even a short while, thank you. Because of you,
2:03
Speaker 1: we have a podcast, we have a place to have
2:06
Speaker 1: these very important conversations about you becoming more of your
2:11
Speaker 1: enriched self. Now, one of the things I do on
2:13
Speaker 1: this podcast, I've been doing it for a while, is
2:16
Speaker 1: I make a deposit into the bank of you, because
2:19
Speaker 1: what I don't want is for you to leave your space,
2:24
Speaker 1: leave and go out into the world and not have
2:28
Speaker 1: what you need and be bankrupt. And so I make
2:33
Speaker 1: a deposit by way of affirmations. Affirmations are a great
2:38
Speaker 1: way to start your day and to command your mourning.
2:43
Speaker 1: And this week's affirmation is I reclaim my time, my focus,
2:51
Speaker 1: and my goals. I reclaim my time, my focus, and
2:59
Speaker 1: my goals. I reclaim my time, my focus, and my goals. Now,
3:11
Speaker 1: let's get ready for this week's episode of the Your
3:15
Speaker 1: Enriched Self Podcast. It's definitely March madness. Out there. I
3:31
Speaker 1: think every Monday when I get back into the office,
3:35
Speaker 1: somebody's talking about a weekend filled with sports and games
3:39
Speaker 1: and basketball and you know, nail biders and hail Mary's
3:44
Speaker 1: and all the things. I mean, we are feeling, we
3:47
Speaker 1: are experiencing. We're watching March Madness, and it's like any
3:51
Speaker 1: other season. There's always spoilers and underdogs coming up, and
3:56
Speaker 1: it has been so inspiring to watch, to listen to.
3:59
Speaker 1: Even I don't really watch a lot of it, but
4:02
Speaker 1: recently I saw a clip that went viral and it
4:06
Speaker 1: was a woman's basketball game in this Marsh Madness season,
4:10
Speaker 1: and a coach and a young lady were on the sidelines,
4:14
Speaker 1: and this coach was going off on this girl. I mean,
4:17
Speaker 1: she was in her face. I mean, it's one of
4:20
Speaker 1: those moments when somebody's that close in your face you
4:23
Speaker 1: almost want to fight. But this was not a contentious situation.
4:27
Speaker 1: This was not a situation that looked like it was
4:30
Speaker 1: going to go in the wrong direction. You could see
4:34
Speaker 1: this woman, this coach, this female speaking life into her player,
4:39
Speaker 1: letting her know that I believe in you, I know
4:43
Speaker 1: that you got this. It's in you. And she's pointing
4:45
Speaker 1: at her and she's, like I said, she's in her face.
4:48
Speaker 1: She's just like one breath away from being in this
4:52
Speaker 1: girl's face. And it was such a powerful clip because
4:57
Speaker 1: at the end of that game, when she sat down
5:01
Speaker 1: for press and they asked her to recall that moment
5:05
Speaker 1: on the sidelines while the game was happening live, while
5:09
Speaker 1: coach was putting her back in, she said, I loved
5:14
Speaker 1: to be coached. I love being coached. I love when
5:17
Speaker 1: my coach coaches me in this way. And she said,
5:21
Speaker 1: this exactly what I needed to get back in the game.
5:25
Speaker 1: It was my reset moment. And I thought, for a second,
5:31
Speaker 1: how many of us have a coach like that, someone
5:35
Speaker 1: that will pull us off to the sidelines when things
5:38
Speaker 1: are going in all the wrong directions, or the momentum
5:42
Speaker 1: is not being sustained, and gets in our face and
5:47
Speaker 1: speaks life over us and does it in such a profound,
5:53
Speaker 1: a very strong, pressing way that you can go back
5:58
Speaker 1: into whatever it is you gotta get back into with momentum,
6:03
Speaker 1: with purpose, would refocus. I don't think a lot of
6:08
Speaker 1: us have that, And today I want to give you
6:10
Speaker 1: a version of that because I know life has happened.
6:17
Speaker 1: I know that for some of you, you feel counted out.
6:21
Speaker 1: Some of you feel disappointed in yourselves because your performance
6:27
Speaker 1: is not up to par I want to help you
6:32
Speaker 1: re energize yourself today. You might feel like you've fallen behind.
6:38
Speaker 1: This episode is for you. Life has happened to you, Yes,
6:45
Speaker 1: but that's not the end of your story. And let
6:47
Speaker 1: me just restate this life has not happened to you.
6:52
Speaker 1: It has happened for you because I promise you every setback,
6:59
Speaker 1: every obstacle that you are dealing with, that you have overcome.
7:04
Speaker 1: Sometimes we forget about the ones that we've overcome. It's
7:09
Speaker 1: an opportunity for you to learn. And that's what I
7:14
Speaker 1: want to talk about today. It's an opportunity for you
7:17
Speaker 1: to get back in the game, just like that young
7:20
Speaker 1: lady did. The first thing I want to think and
7:27
Speaker 1: talk about today is the importance of rest. Sometimes listen,
7:33
Speaker 1: we need to recharge. We need to recharge. It's an
7:38
Speaker 1: opportunity to rest. And when I last checked, rest is
7:42
Speaker 1: not failure. I think I have an episode way back when,
7:46
Speaker 1: in the early days of this podcast talking about rest
7:50
Speaker 1: being medicine. I still believe it. I know what rest
7:56
Speaker 1: has done for me when I am down to the last.
8:00
Speaker 1: Have you ever looked at your phone and you've seen
8:03
Speaker 1: that last little battery bar. I can feel myself sometimes
8:08
Speaker 1: on that last battery bar, and I know that in
8:12
Speaker 1: order to get that recharge back up, I need to rest.
8:15
Speaker 1: I mean, you put your phone down to rest or
8:18
Speaker 1: recharge every night. Don't you think you need an opportunity
8:22
Speaker 1: to recharge so that you're prepared to perform the next day.
8:27
Speaker 1: You do that with your phone. You do that with
8:30
Speaker 1: your car when you take it in to get an
8:31
Speaker 1: oil change. Right, there are things that need to happen,
8:37
Speaker 1: because if you don't address those things, you're going to
8:42
Speaker 1: remain depleted. And that's why oftentimes you might be feeling
8:47
Speaker 1: behind because you haven't prepared yourself to go to go
8:53
Speaker 1: get it. And as I mentioned, life is happening. Life
8:58
Speaker 1: has happened, and it will continue down that path. But
9:05
Speaker 1: that doesn't disqualify you from what you were brought here
9:07
Speaker 1: to do. It doesn't disqualify you from your purpose, It
9:11
Speaker 1: doesn't disqualify you from your goals. I'm a big believer,
9:21
Speaker 1: big believer in that a pause is not a failure,
9:29
Speaker 1: It was not an avoidance. It could simply mean that
9:35
Speaker 1: in order for you to thrive again in this season,
9:40
Speaker 1: you need to go into survival mode. You might need
9:43
Speaker 1: to protect yourself from something. So yeah, you might have
9:46
Speaker 1: paused because you know that if you go down that path,
9:50
Speaker 1: it's not going to give you or get you where
9:52
Speaker 1: you need to go. Rest. As I mentioned, it is medicine,
9:59
Speaker 1: but it is the opportunity. I want you to look
10:02
Speaker 1: at it as also a recharge season because recharge is
10:08
Speaker 1: going to help you to come back, as I mentioned, prepared,
10:12
Speaker 1: but you will come back stronger, you will have a
10:15
Speaker 1: clearer mind. And let me tell you what the clarity.
10:20
Speaker 1: A lot of times when you're just going, going, going,
10:22
Speaker 1: if you don't have any clarity, you're really going nowhere.
10:27
Speaker 1: So that recharge is it goes hand in hand with clarity.
10:33
Speaker 1: You are going to gain clarity from the recharge. And
10:40
Speaker 1: that way now you can go into your world, into
10:43
Speaker 1: your situation with more intentionality. You go with more intentionality,
10:53
Speaker 1: you're more prepared, you are going to get results. That's
10:57
Speaker 1: just how it is. You cannot pour from an empty cup,
11:04
Speaker 1: you cannot drive a car that doesn't have any gas.
11:08
Speaker 1: Why do you think that you can keep going if
11:12
Speaker 1: you don't recharge. So my friends, I need you to recharge.
11:20
Speaker 1: Years ago, many of you might have seen I think
11:25
Speaker 1: it was a congressional hearing. And you know, in these
11:28
Speaker 1: congressional hearings, they have a certain amount of time to
11:33
Speaker 1: state their case and to ask questions and get answers
11:37
Speaker 1: from whoever it is the disposition or the deposition is about, right.
11:41
Speaker 1: So they might have a CEO of a company or
11:44
Speaker 1: some person that they're interrogating, and they're trying to get
11:48
Speaker 1: their point across. They're trying to show their constituents. Do
11:51
Speaker 1: you see what I'm pointing out? Do you see all
11:53
Speaker 1: of these inconsistencies? Right? And so there was a congresswoman
11:59
Speaker 1: by the name of Maxine Waters, and what happened was
12:04
Speaker 1: she was going through the process like all the other
12:06
Speaker 1: congressional leaders before her, and working through having these questions
12:14
Speaker 1: and in this deposition getting the information that she needed
12:18
Speaker 1: because of whatever the case was. I can't even remember
12:20
Speaker 1: all the details, but at some point there an argument ensued.
12:27
Speaker 1: There was kind of a moment in her portion, because
12:31
Speaker 1: again you get a window of time. There was another
12:35
Speaker 1: I don't know, senator or someone who had recently spent
12:39
Speaker 1: their time just reading names off of a list they
12:42
Speaker 1: just used their time to do that. Well, she had
12:44
Speaker 1: specifically designated her time to have a certain conversation and
12:50
Speaker 1: get these responses so she can kind of close out
12:54
Speaker 1: her argument right, and this individual spend time maybe spinning
13:02
Speaker 1: their wheels or not quite getting to the answer. And
13:05
Speaker 1: then there was a whole conversation that had occurred between
13:09
Speaker 1: two other parties who were not part of her whole segment,
13:13
Speaker 1: if you will, and before before you know it, this lady,
13:20
Speaker 1: before she concludes, she said, listen, you used my time
13:26
Speaker 1: for these things that were not what I wanted to
13:29
Speaker 1: use my time for. So therefore I'm reclaiming my time.
13:37
Speaker 1: And it became a meme and people started putting it
13:40
Speaker 1: on T shirts and I actually bought the T shirt. Yes,
13:43
Speaker 1: I had a T shirt that said reclaiming my time
13:46
Speaker 1: and I want you all to reclaim your time, take
13:50
Speaker 1: back the ownership of what is yours without shame. I
13:54
Speaker 1: promise you. Maxine Waters did not have any shame in
14:00
Speaker 1: reclaiming her time. Take a page out of her book.
14:05
Speaker 1: If you feel you've let yourself down in this season,
14:09
Speaker 1: if you feel like you are on the other side
14:11
Speaker 1: of the wall, I need you to first of all,
14:15
Speaker 1: you might be sitting on the other side of that wall,
14:19
Speaker 1: you know, the obstacle wall, the challenge wall, the issue wall,
14:23
Speaker 1: whatever it is that got you to sit down, had
14:27
Speaker 1: you to be sat down. In this season, I need
14:30
Speaker 1: you on that other side of the wall to get up. Yes,
14:34
Speaker 1: you get up, stand up and reclaim your time. You
14:48
Speaker 1: may feel like you've let yourself down, but guess what.
14:54
Speaker 1: Guess what. You are still here. That means, repeat that
15:00
Speaker 1: you are still here. That means you have the opportunity
15:04
Speaker 1: to do something. And if what you did before put
15:10
Speaker 1: you to sit down or made you feel defeated, made
15:12
Speaker 1: you feel less than put you down in shame, try
15:15
Speaker 1: a different thing. Try it with a new lens, Try
15:20
Speaker 1: it with a new mindset, try it with a new attitude.
15:23
Speaker 1: A lot of times it's just a small tweak. Maybe
15:27
Speaker 1: you were going about this the wrong way. It's not
15:30
Speaker 1: that you weren't going about it, but you were going
15:33
Speaker 1: about it the wrong way. So I want you to
15:38
Speaker 1: take back your time, take back the ownership of your path,
15:48
Speaker 1: and reclaim your goals without guilt. These are your goals.
15:56
Speaker 1: You don't have to be guilty that you don't have
15:59
Speaker 1: anything in a time when it comes to this thing
16:02
Speaker 1: that you said you were gonna do. Listen, let me,
16:05
Speaker 1: let me, let me, let me do it. Let me
16:07
Speaker 1: put an audible and pause for a second to remind
16:10
Speaker 1: you that, my friend, you have three quarters left. And
16:18
Speaker 1: I know that you're used to looking at things half empty.
16:26
Speaker 1: You still have three quarters left in this year to
16:31
Speaker 1: get whatever it is that you need to get done done.
16:37
Speaker 1: Just like that young lady on the sideline, she still
16:40
Speaker 1: had time. The game clock had not expired. You still
16:44
Speaker 1: have time. The year of twenty twenty six has not
16:48
Speaker 1: yet expired. Why do you think that you have to
16:52
Speaker 1: have a certain thing done at a certain time so
16:55
Speaker 1: that you can determine that you've been successful. Oh wait
16:59
Speaker 1: a minut You've been listening to the culture. You've been
17:03
Speaker 1: tuned into what everybody else is saying and doing, and
17:06
Speaker 1: you are comparing well. The Bible says that comparison is
17:14
Speaker 1: the thief of joy. Why would you want to be
17:20
Speaker 1: comparing yourself to anybody else? If you want to make
17:25
Speaker 1: some comparisons, look at where you are and where you
17:30
Speaker 1: want to be and figure out what's in the middle
17:33
Speaker 1: of that. What is the gap? How big is the gap?
17:36
Speaker 1: How deep is the gap. What will it take to
17:39
Speaker 1: fill that gap? What do you need to fill that gap?
17:43
Speaker 1: That's how you empower yourself. Empower yourself and reclaim the
17:50
Speaker 1: ownership back in the game. Reclaim your time without regret.
17:56
Speaker 1: This is your time, this is your you know gap
18:01
Speaker 1: season where you gotta fill it in. Don't have any
18:05
Speaker 1: regrets about the time that you're taking to get and
18:09
Speaker 1: regain control of your life. And I said it before,
18:14
Speaker 1: regain your vision without comparison. Regain your vision without comparison.
18:22
Speaker 1: You don't need to compare to compete. Listen, every day
18:26
Speaker 1: I get up, I want to be the best version
18:28
Speaker 1: of me. I want to be a better version of me,
18:31
Speaker 1: not of she or he of me. That's the vision
18:37
Speaker 1: for myself, So I don't need comparison, if not for myself.
18:45
Speaker 1: A reminder, you didn't miss any moment, you didn't miss anything.
18:55
Speaker 1: I do believe in alignment, and I do believe in timing,
18:57
Speaker 1: and I do believe that everything happens in the rightful time.
19:03
Speaker 1: But I also don't believe in victimhood. I believe that
19:07
Speaker 1: wherever you are, however difficult or the difficulties you face,
19:13
Speaker 1: there is an opportunity for you to claim victory over
19:17
Speaker 1: your situation, over your life. You don't have to be
19:21
Speaker 1: a victim. The truth is you haven't executed yet. And
19:27
Speaker 1: that's okay, because that's the last piece of this I
19:30
Speaker 1: need you to re execute. You know. I have this
19:37
Speaker 1: thing that I truly believe and every time I see
19:42
Speaker 1: someone or someone sees me and they see the results,
19:45
Speaker 1: especially around fitness that I've gotten over the years, and
19:48
Speaker 1: they're like, man, you figure it out, you know how
19:51
Speaker 1: to do it, and I say, you know what, They're like,
19:53
Speaker 1: I just want to get better. I just want to
19:54
Speaker 1: do these things. And I always say, just start with
19:57
Speaker 1: what you have. That is really the biggest hack to
20:03
Speaker 1: all of to really consistency. Everybody thinks when they think
20:08
Speaker 1: consistency of perfection, there's some type of association with consistency
20:14
Speaker 1: and perfection, and it really isn't, so it's so far
20:18
Speaker 1: from the truth. That is not how consistency works. When
20:22
Speaker 1: you're consistent, you're gonna go out there and you're gonna
20:24
Speaker 1: fail most days. That's the real truth about consistency. It
20:28
Speaker 1: doesn't Consistency doesn't mean everything looks exactly the same and
20:32
Speaker 1: you are exactly the same from day to day. That's
20:35
Speaker 1: not consistency. Consistency is going out there no matter what
20:43
Speaker 1: the outcome is, no matter how pretty it is. I mean,
20:48
Speaker 1: think about it. If it's a beautiful day today and
20:52
Speaker 1: tomorrow it rains, consistency says, okay, it rained, I'm still
20:55
Speaker 1: going out. The days are not identical. It's not beautiful
21:00
Speaker 1: sunny days are the only days I go out. It's
21:02
Speaker 1: I go out every day. If it's sunny, if it's snow,
21:05
Speaker 1: if it's cold, if it's whatever. If there's pollen all
21:08
Speaker 1: over the place, which there happens to be right now,
21:11
Speaker 1: I'm still gonna go out. It gets messy. Inconsistency and
21:16
Speaker 1: everybody thinks consistencies is perfect landing place where everything just
21:21
Speaker 1: happens and the magic and the you know, the fairy dust. No, no, no, no.
21:27
Speaker 1: Consistency is so far from all that perfection that culture
21:32
Speaker 1: likes to feed you. I'm feeding you the truth. I'm
21:34
Speaker 1: telling you no lies here are detected that you can
21:40
Speaker 1: re execute, not just from where you are, but from
21:44
Speaker 1: what you know, from what you know. Part of your
21:50
Speaker 1: journey to become more enriched, to be the best version
21:54
Speaker 1: of yourself is starting where you are what you have,
21:57
Speaker 1: but also starting where you are with the in you have,
22:02
Speaker 1: and as you go along that information at insight, that innovation,
22:06
Speaker 1: it's going to build, it's going to grow. That's part
22:08
Speaker 1: of your growth too. You're gonna have some physical growth,
22:11
Speaker 1: but a lot of the growth that you're gonna have
22:13
Speaker 1: is going to be internal. All the internal work that
22:16
Speaker 1: you've neglected, all the internal things that didn't seem significant
22:21
Speaker 1: but are important enough for you to pull that trigger.
22:28
Speaker 1: So in the spirit of start with what you have,
22:32
Speaker 1: start smaller. Yeah, start smaller again. This is a hack
22:37
Speaker 1: that I've always said to people, you know where they
22:40
Speaker 1: want to go out and do all the things, And
22:41
Speaker 1: I keep going back to twenty twenty, when you know,
22:45
Speaker 1: years prior to that, I was going to Nike Fitness,
22:47
Speaker 1: I was going to Zoomba, I was going to personal training,
22:51
Speaker 1: I was running, I was doing all these physical things.
22:55
Speaker 1: And then COVID hit. Everything slowed down, and I remember
22:58
Speaker 1: one day I got to do something and it felt
23:02
Speaker 1: like a complete ball of stress, like I couldn't do
23:06
Speaker 1: things that before it was so easy and simple for
23:10
Speaker 1: me to do, And I'm like, what's going on? Like,
23:12
Speaker 1: have I really just gotten that stagnant? I did a
23:15
Speaker 1: lot of us did I know, we don't want to
23:18
Speaker 1: think about that time. I have the pictures to prove it.
23:21
Speaker 1: I did not look like myself anymore. And I remember
23:27
Speaker 1: waking up one day and thinking, gosh, how did I
23:30
Speaker 1: go from being this active to this passive? When it
23:34
Speaker 1: comes to my activity, I started to look it, I
23:37
Speaker 1: started to feel it, and I started to live it.
23:41
Speaker 1: Because after a while, when you start looking at yourself
23:43
Speaker 1: a certain way, you start acting a certain way. You
23:47
Speaker 1: start again. With food, you know you don't see the
23:50
Speaker 1: value of it, or you don't see what it can
23:53
Speaker 1: be used for. I see food now, it's fuel. I
23:58
Speaker 1: didn't see it that way then, but at the end
24:01
Speaker 1: of the day, I decided one day, you know, what
24:05
Speaker 1: can I do? Because the consistency had died. I I
24:09
Speaker 1: wasn't going anywhere. I was going to the gym, I
24:10
Speaker 1: was going on my morning runs. I wasn't doing any
24:13
Speaker 1: of the things. I'm like, how can I get this
24:14
Speaker 1: thing to how can I re execute my plan all
24:18
Speaker 1: over again? And I literally, I promise you, And I've
24:21
Speaker 1: said this on a couple of other podcast episodes. I
24:24
Speaker 1: told myself, get up tomorrow and do five jumpin' jacks
24:28
Speaker 1: and the minute I had the thought go through my head,
24:31
Speaker 1: I thought, this is the dumbest thing that I've ever
24:34
Speaker 1: thought of in the thoughts of my life. It really
24:39
Speaker 1: wasn't the dumbest thing, but at the time, it felt
24:41
Speaker 1: really silly for me to think that a goal of
24:45
Speaker 1: mine would be to go to bed, to wake up
24:48
Speaker 1: the next day, put clothes on, the workout clothes on,
24:53
Speaker 1: and go downstairs and do five jumping jacks and call
24:56
Speaker 1: myself starting re executing. But guess what, friends, I got
25:03
Speaker 1: up the next day, I put on my work on clothes,
25:06
Speaker 1: I went downstairs, and I executed five jumping jacks. And
25:10
Speaker 1: then I really felt silly, and I decided to do
25:14
Speaker 1: ten jumping jacks. And I told myself, don't overdo it,
25:20
Speaker 1: because I know me you overdo it. You go I
25:23
Speaker 1: could do one hundred jumping jacks, where you go from
25:25
Speaker 1: zero to one hundred. The next day, you're not feeling
25:27
Speaker 1: yourself like you want to do this because you've done
25:30
Speaker 1: too much. So I told myself to start small, and
25:34
Speaker 1: I'm telling you to start small. And I know it
25:36
Speaker 1: sounds silly, and I know it goes against the culture.
25:39
Speaker 1: It's anti culture to do some of the things we
25:41
Speaker 1: talk about on this podcast. But guess what, You've been
25:44
Speaker 1: doing it the way culture has prescribed you to do it,
25:47
Speaker 1: and it has kept you in a bubble. It has
25:50
Speaker 1: limited you. So let's do things different for a different outcome.
25:53
Speaker 1: Let's do things to get to a point of consistency,
25:56
Speaker 1: and not just to be arrogant, and not just to
25:59
Speaker 1: be showho about it, but to show up for ourselves.
26:02
Speaker 1: Not to be show we but to show up for ourselves. Also,
26:05
Speaker 1: start smarter again. I could have gone with the zero
26:09
Speaker 1: to sixty thing, and I've done that before. I've decided
26:12
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do this thing and I'm gonna be gung
26:14
Speaker 1: ho about it, and I stick with it for about
26:18
Speaker 1: maybe a good week if that much. And a lot
26:22
Speaker 1: of you know what I'm talking about. You go out,
26:24
Speaker 1: you want to, you know, do it big right and
26:28
Speaker 1: you wanna you wanna do it? Be smart about when
26:31
Speaker 1: you go do your thing, Be smart about it right,
26:41
Speaker 1: work smarter, not harder. Not a lot of us, I
26:44
Speaker 1: know me. I speak for myself. I go out with
26:46
Speaker 1: the hard mentality I'm gonna go hard, I'm gonna get
26:48
Speaker 1: this done, only to realize that doing it that way,
26:52
Speaker 1: I could have injured myself. Right, And I'm not just
26:55
Speaker 1: talking about physical injury like doing things. I'm talking about
27:00
Speaker 1: mental injury. I'm talking about emotional injury, right, I'm talking
27:05
Speaker 1: about spiritual injury. There's a lot of ways financial injury.
27:11
Speaker 1: There's a lot of ways you can go out there
27:12
Speaker 1: and do things, to do things and go hard at
27:15
Speaker 1: this thing without being smart about it. And I want
27:19
Speaker 1: you to be smart about it when you re execute
27:22
Speaker 1: what it is that you need to do right. And
27:27
Speaker 1: the ultimate message here is just start now, Just start now.
27:32
Speaker 1: Don't wait for tomorrow. People say it all the time.
27:38
Speaker 1: You know, I'm just gonna do it next week. I'm
27:40
Speaker 1: gonna start fresh on Monday. There's so many different ways
27:46
Speaker 1: we lean into this next day, this next start, this
27:50
Speaker 1: next month, maybe next year. I want you to do
27:55
Speaker 1: the start now movement, the momentum with that, the motion
28:01
Speaker 1: with that. See, the thing is you've already gathered the lessons.
28:05
Speaker 1: You don't have to go get nothing new. You know
28:08
Speaker 1: what you know, and you know what you know. You
28:12
Speaker 1: have the awareness now, a lot of it is self awareness,
28:15
Speaker 1: which is important to have that, and you have experience
28:19
Speaker 1: under your belt. So guess what this time when you
28:24
Speaker 1: go back out there to reclaim your time. This time,
28:28
Speaker 1: when you go back out there knowing that you got
28:29
Speaker 1: three quarters left, you're not starting from scratch. You're starting
28:34
Speaker 1: from a place of being informed. And that's progress, my friends,
28:42
Speaker 1: not perfection. That's progress. And the thing that's required for
28:49
Speaker 1: you to have progress, for you to have progression on
28:53
Speaker 1: your journey, is to get up and move. I hope
