Transcript
- 0:03Speaker 1: Oooh. It really is true. And they always say some
- 0:06Speaker 1: of your best ideas come when you're working out, because
- 0:08Speaker 1: movement is life. I agree with that. So I thought
- 0:11Speaker 1: it would be a good time if you have a
- 0:13Speaker 1: little weekend mindset reset about something that's been flooding my
- 0:17Speaker 1: comments section on social media in the inbox and direct
- 0:21Speaker 1: messages about how crazy things are these days. You're not wrong.
- 0:27Speaker 1: I mean, just think about it. In my Wicked Radio
- 0:29Speaker 1: livestream this week, what did we talk about big riots
- 0:32Speaker 1: and big cities. We had a couple of real, real
- 0:36Speaker 1: juicy plane passenger meltdowns that were just classics. And oh yeah,
- 0:39Speaker 1: let's not forget the aftermath and the discussion and the
- 0:42Speaker 1: debate and nontroversy about bombing Iran. These are crazy times.
- 0:46Speaker 1: You're not wrong, But I don't think the answer is
- 0:49Speaker 1: to hide your head in the sand. Here's the difference
- 0:52Speaker 1: these days, because of social media, we see, we hear,
- 0:57Speaker 1: we react to everything. In my opinion, I actually think
- 1:00Speaker 1: that's better than hiding your head in the sand, because
- 1:03Speaker 1: I'd rather know. But here's the thing, and we all
- 1:06Speaker 1: go through it. I go through it too. They're just
- 1:08Speaker 1: sometimes just going through some news stories and the headlines.
- 1:11Speaker 1: We just want to say, okay, just enough, stop the world.
- 1:14Speaker 1: I want to get off. It's too much. Whenever you
- 1:17Speaker 1: find yourself going through that, just try this mindset reset.
- 1:21Speaker 1: Just hear me out and try it. And I call
- 1:24Speaker 1: it nineteen sixties social media. And right now you're going, hey, idiot,
- 1:29Speaker 1: there wasn't social media in the nineteen sixties. I know
- 1:33Speaker 1: that's the technique. Imagine if there was. Okay, just imagine
- 1:38Speaker 1: for a second when things seem too crazy that in
- 1:41Speaker 1: the mid to late nineteen sixties, can you imagine what
- 1:46Speaker 1: it was like if your friends had Facebook, x TikTok, YouTube,
- 1:52Speaker 1: imagine that Instagram. Imagine that what that would be like? Woodstock,
- 1:58Speaker 1: Vietnam War, Vietnam War protests, massive race riots, assassinations, all
- 2:04Speaker 1: covered daily by people back then on your social media
- 2:07Speaker 1: feed if it existed. Now, tell me that's any less
- 2:10Speaker 1: crazy than what we go through these days. It kind
- 2:13Speaker 1: of puts things in perspective. It really does. So every
- 2:16Speaker 1: time you think you can't handle something, of course you
- 2:18Speaker 1: can people handle it. Then we survive. Then we're gonna survive.
- 2:22Speaker 1: Now it's not too crazy. You just hear about it. Now,
- 2:25Speaker 1: go have a weekend. Take care of it, don't let
- 2:28Speaker 1: it overwhelm you. And movement is life. Remember that one too,
