• 0:00
  Speaker 1: So October, and that means that you're gonna hear me
• 0:04
  Speaker 1: talking about something pretty much all month long, and that
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: is it's my birthday season, it's my birthday month, and
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: I have so much emotion about this journey. I'm getting
• 0:18
  Speaker 1: ready to hit a milestone birthday and I'm actually very
• 0:20
  Speaker 1: proud that I'm gonna be fifty. Yes, I am proud
• 0:26
  Speaker 1: of every journey, good, bad, and indifferent that has come
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: with that number or that attitude or whatever it is
• 0:35
  Speaker 1: that you see your birthday as. I see it as
• 0:40
  Speaker 1: a chapter. I see it as an attitude, I see
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: it as experience. I see it as so much. It's
• 0:47
  Speaker 1: not just a number or an age. There's so much
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: behind it. And I'm incredibly proud of my journey. I'm
• 0:58
  Speaker 1: incredibly proud of the journey that I've been on, and
• 1:02
  Speaker 1: I know that for me. Let me say this, that
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: doesn't mean that it has been perfect. That doesn't mean
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: that I haven't made tons of mistakes. That doesn't mean
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: that there were missteps and there were things that happened
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: that were not desired. That means that I'm incredibly proud
• 1:25
  Speaker 1: of the fact that although the things that didn't happen,
• 1:31
  Speaker 1: the way I wanted to happened. I am still pursuing
• 1:37
  Speaker 1: my greatness. I am still pursuing my enriched life to
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: be my enriched self. I'm still in pursuit of happiness
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: and joy and peace. I'm filled with gratitude. I'm filled
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: with new understanding and insights, so much more clarity that
• 2:02
  Speaker 1: I have for me and the world around me and
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: the world I'm creating inside of me and consequently around
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: me that I'm just I feel renewed, I feel refreshed.
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: I'm excited for this next new chapter and everything that's
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: gonna come with it. I know it's not always going
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: to be easy, but I know that it's going to
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: be worth it because it's my journey and it's important
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: to me. And I pray that you find and you
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: pursue what's important to you in this life while you
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: have Hello, my friends from all across the globe, and
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: welcome to the urine Redself Podcast. I am your host.
• 3:00
  Speaker 1: I'm my le Noir. I am an emotional wellness and
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: empowerment coach, and all that means is I want you
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: to become more of your and rich self. And so
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: what I focus on is working on what needs to
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: happen within so you can be the best version of
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: yourself on the outside. And so that's what this podcast
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: is all about. We also on this podcast talk about
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: mindset fusion topics, because everything, as I mentioned, starts within.
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: It starts with your initial thought, and that thought plans
• 3:39
  Speaker 1: a seed. When those seeds grow, they inspire the words
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: that you speak over your life and about your life,
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: and those words then translate to the action and the
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: activity that you take in your life so that you
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: can do the things that you need to do to
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: be the best version of you. And so that's what
• 3:58
  Speaker 1: this podcast is all about, is working from the inside out.
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: And if you are new to this podcast, I want
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: to thank you for joining us, for being part of
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: this journey. And if you are a repeat listener, I
• 4:15
  Speaker 1: want to thank you from the bottom of my heart.
• 4:18
  Speaker 1: Thank you for tuning in, tapping in, turning on this episode, sharing, liking,
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: and participating each and every week. We've been doing this
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: for over one hundred and sixty five episodes and you
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: have been a big part of why we are who
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: we are. So thank you, thank you, thank you. Now,
• 4:40
  Speaker 1: before we get started with this week's episode, if you
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: know you know One of the things that I do
• 4:46
  Speaker 1: is make a deposit into the bank of you, and
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: I do that by way of affirmations. Affirmations are a
• 4:56
  Speaker 1: great way to start your day and to command your morning.
• 5:03
  Speaker 1: And this week's affirmation is I am incredibly proud of
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: my growth journey. I am incredibly proud of my growth journey.
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: I am incredibly proud of my growth journey. Now let's
• 5:30
  Speaker 1: get ready for this week's episode of the Your Enriched
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: Self podcast. I want to focus these next couple of
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: weeks on what I'm calling a reflective journey, a reflective
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: series of sorts, if you will. I mentioned earlier that
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: I will be celebrating all month October because it's my
• 6:00
  Speaker 1: birthday month and I am hitting a milestone birthday. I
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: will be fifty years old, and I'm not really focus
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: on the age, but I am just so grateful for
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: the journey. I'm grateful for the inside, the understanding, the wisdom,
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: everything that comes along and will continue to come along
• 6:19
  Speaker 1: on this journey. And in my reflective series, I want
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: to kind of go back and if I could reflect
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: on some things that I can go back in part
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: on someone and share with someone I've found myself over
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: the last couple of years and with intention to grow
• 6:40
  Speaker 1: some mentees, especially in the workplace, because I think that's
• 6:45
  Speaker 1: a tremendous place of growth for any young person. And
• 6:49
  Speaker 1: I'm talking primarily to women because I see myself so
• 6:54
  Speaker 1: much in people who are starting their careers and starting
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: to try to acclimate into the various types of in
• 7:04
  Speaker 1: my place, in my situation, the corporate landscape, and I
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: know that I have a lot to share there and
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: I really enjoy being in a position where I have
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: mentees to do that. But in this reflective journey, I
• 7:23
  Speaker 1: just want to talk about some things that if I
• 7:26
  Speaker 1: could go back and talk to the younger version of myself,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: or even in this mentor mentee relationship, if I can
• 7:34
  Speaker 1: go back and pen a letter to myself that can
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: kind of do the back to the future type deal
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: and go back and share that wisdom and that insight
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: and that understanding. These are the things that I want
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: to talk about. And today primarily I want to talk
• 7:50
  Speaker 1: about starting, and I want for you the listener, but
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: also for me, the person who's reflecting, to throw away
• 8:02
  Speaker 1: some of the things that you've learned about getting started.
• 8:07
  Speaker 1: I believe that everyone in life. And I've said this before,
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: has a purpose in this life when you find that purpose,
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: and I think that's going to evolve and you're going
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: to find new things to be excited and passionate about.
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: Things that don't feel like work. They just it's not
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: the typical work. It's more hard work. And so as
• 8:30
  Speaker 1: I'm thinking back and reflecting on starting, I know there's
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: something inside of you right now that's a burning desire
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: to get started with something. And it could be in
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: your faith pillar. It can be in your finance pillar,
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: it can be in your fitness pillar. It can be
• 8:50
  Speaker 1: in your family pillar, or another pillar that you might have.
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: Those are kind of the pillars I look at my life.
• 8:56
  Speaker 1: In whatever it is that you're trying to get started on,
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: I'm gonna ask you to throw away what you have
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: heard as the basis to get started. And one of
• 9:12
  Speaker 1: the first things I would say is throw away the
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: idea that you must be prepared to get started. And
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: I'm going to back this up. I am a project manager.
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: I've been project managing since twenty nineteen somewhere around that time.
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: And one of the things that I know when you're
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: getting started with a project large scale projects or even
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: you know, small scale projects that are gonna launch in
• 9:40
  Speaker 1: thirty days or so thirty to sixty days, is that
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: you aren't prepared to do anything. You are in the
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: very early stages of understanding the problem you're trying to solve,
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: operationalizing it, but really understanding what are the barriers to
• 9:59
  Speaker 1: getting this project to launch. So you're not prepared to launch,
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: You're not prepared to trial, You're not prepared to anything.
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: What you are doing is fact finding. What you are
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: doing is investigative work. What you are doing is collaborating.
• 10:17
  Speaker 1: And so the idea that in order to get started
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: you have to have all the answers, you're not. You're
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: not going to have all the tools and all the
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: information and all the support at your fingertips. And I
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: say that because there are things that I wanted to
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: get started on years ago, because I had an idea
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: or I had a passion about something, but because I
• 10:43
  Speaker 1: didn't have everything in front of me, every resource wasn't
• 10:46
  Speaker 1: gathered in front of me and ready for me to
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: deploy and execute, it felt as though I wasn't ready.
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: And so the whole notion of preparation is the only
• 10:57
  Speaker 1: way to get started. Throw it out a way, throw
• 10:59
  Speaker 1: it out away today. The other one that I want
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: you to throw away today is get started. You can
• 11:10
  Speaker 1: only get started when you feel ready. And I say
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: feel because everybody we re ride on our feelings. We
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: go based on our feelings. And I always say feelings
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: aren't facts. Feelings aren't facts. If you allow your feelings
• 11:29
  Speaker 1: to dictate your life, you aren't going to do much
• 11:34
  Speaker 1: because some days, you know how it is, we're human.
• 11:37
  Speaker 1: There are days that you feel like it and there
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: are days that you don't. So if you allow feelings
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: to dictate, you're gonna be turning the lights whitch on
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: and off in your pursuit to whatever it is, in
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: your start to whatever it is. I mean, this is
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: why people get on a fitness journey or a lifestyle
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: journey what they want as a lifetile style journey. But
• 12:01
  Speaker 1: it becomes a fad, It becomes a thirty days too,
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: it becomes next week, I'll get started because I don't
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: feel like it right now. I this year have talked
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: about on multiple occasions on this podcast platform my fitness
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: journey and I got here for a number of reasons.
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: But one of the things I had to do to
• 12:37
  Speaker 1: in particular get new results, because what I found was
• 12:41
  Speaker 1: over the years is I would get like results, I
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: would see some things happen in a month, and then
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: I would kind of revert back and I would play
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: this yo yo game. And I know a lot of
• 12:51
  Speaker 1: people when it comes to like weight loss, if that's
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: the only measurement you use, if you've been listening to
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: the podcast, I don't use weight loss as my measurement anymore.
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: There's so much more key factors of your performance that
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: are important to me. Key factors of my performance that's
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: important to me when it comes to my fitness, such
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: as my strength and my endurance, and you know, my
• 13:15
  Speaker 1: ability to grow my lean muscle. There's so much more
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: than weight. But my point to all of that is,
• 13:25
  Speaker 1: if I waited to feel like I wanted to go
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: work out, to feel like I wanted to work hard
• 13:37
  Speaker 1: in those boot camps, to feel like I wanted to
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: participate in multiple boot camps, if I waited till I
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: felt right and ready and I felt like it was
• 13:48
  Speaker 1: time for me to do it, I would not have
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: pursued it as intentionally as I had. And that's why
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I say throw out the if you feel al ready
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: to do it. When you feel ready, I say do
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: it now. Do it, especially when you don't feel ready,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: because there are going to be more days that you
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: don't feel like you want to do it than there
• 14:10
  Speaker 1: are days that you feel like you want to do it,
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: at least at the beginning. Right now, I can overcome
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: those feelings because I am in a space of consistency.
• 14:21
  Speaker 1: I'm in a space of I recognize what's at stake,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: and I understand how this has made me feel in
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: terms of what it's doing for me, the results that
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: I'm seeing, how strong I am, as I mentioned before,
• 14:36
  Speaker 1: and all of the benefits I'm getting my performance. And
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: that's what's driving me to keep going, is because I'm
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: seeing the results. And at the beginning, you don't see
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: the results. And if you're going to wait until you
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: see the results to act, you're going to have to
• 14:58
  Speaker 1: take some time before that happens. And that's why a
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: lot of people rely on how they feel then, and
• 15:05
  Speaker 1: that doesn't always align. So I say throw that out.
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: The other thing I would say to throw out is
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: this whole The time has to be right. The time
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: has to be right. I get it. There are certain
• 15:18
  Speaker 1: professions or certain things that you do, like, for example,
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: in the housing industry, there is a timing to it.
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: Some things are cyclical. I get that, But what you're
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: working on, if it's a financial thing, or a spiritual thing,
• 15:34
  Speaker 1: or a fake thing, or whatever it is, I don't
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: think you have to wait until the timing is right
• 15:42
  Speaker 1: to decide that you are going to change your lifestyle
• 15:47
  Speaker 1: of movement or your lifestyle of how you fuel yourself.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: I don't think you have to wait for when the
• 15:56
  Speaker 1: timing is right to go do those things right, because
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I know that you are and you have been looking
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: at your current situation knowing that you can make an
• 16:08
  Speaker 1: impact on that situation simply by doing one thing different
• 16:12
  Speaker 1: today and then adding another thing different tomorrow, or continuing
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: what you did differently today throughout this week, throughout next week,
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: and maybe throughout the month, and then adding a new
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: thing to do different as you continue to build on
• 16:29
  Speaker 1: changing your situation. But if you wait for when the
• 16:35
  Speaker 1: timing is right, you may be waiting forever. And I
• 16:39
  Speaker 1: say that as a mom because there were times in
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: my kids' lives when they were growing up that I
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: wanted to wait to do certain things because I wanted
• 16:50
  Speaker 1: for them to be in a certain position. I wanted
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: the timing to be aligned. I wanted the sun to
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: rise in the east this way and set in the
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: west that way. And I waited and I waited and
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: I waited, and sometimes there's no more weight left. There's
• 17:11
  Speaker 1: no more time left in the weight. We see that
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: with our friends, our family, our neighbors, communities of people
• 17:22
  Speaker 1: we just recently saw with the hurricane that have no
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: time left. They are no longer here. And that's why
• 17:29
  Speaker 1: I say, throw out the waiting until the timing is right. Now.
• 17:37
  Speaker 1: I told you about the things that if I were
• 17:41
  Speaker 1: to reflect back, I would throw away. When it comes
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: to getting started on something, here's where I believe you
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: should get started on something. You should get started when
• 17:56
  Speaker 1: you are willing to learn, when you are embracing your
• 18:03
  Speaker 1: learning journey, when you are open to learning new things.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: I say that's where you get started. And quite frankly,
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: most people want to start new things because they are
• 18:16
  Speaker 1: open to learn. You're already there, but that's the time.
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: That's the ripe moment. If there is a time, it
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: is when you are willing to learn, because now you're open.
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: The other area of opportunity when it comes to getting
• 18:32
  Speaker 1: started is when you are willing to be vulnerable, When
• 18:38
  Speaker 1: you are willing to be vulnerable, when you are willing
• 18:42
  Speaker 1: to make mistakes. Fail forward and understand that mistakes are
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: simply part of the process. Mistakes have something called a
• 18:59
  Speaker 1: learning curve that you can learn from. Take the l
• 19:05
  Speaker 1: take the lesson, and then you can move forward. It's
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: like adding a rung to a ladder. Every mistake becomes
• 19:14
  Speaker 1: an opportunity to learn, and that learn becomes a rung
• 19:20
  Speaker 1: in your ladder that you can step on to get
• 19:22
  Speaker 1: to the next level. And that is where vulnerability is
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: going to serve you best. I know a lot of
• 19:31
  Speaker 1: people look at vulnerability as weakness. They look at vulnerability
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: as a limitation or a lack But that's the old
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: way of thinking. I like to challenge your thinking. I
• 19:44
  Speaker 1: like to challenge my thinking because a lot of that thinking,
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: some of it being stinking thinking, has kept us from
• 19:52
  Speaker 1: getting started, has kept us from chasing our purpose and
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: living our purpose, all toimate living out our dream. Here's
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: another opportunity for you to get started. You can get
• 20:08
  Speaker 1: started when you are willing to ask for help. So
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: many of you suffer in silence. I did. I suffered
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: in silence. If you are going to step out and
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: go do a thing, be willing to ask for help.
• 20:29
  Speaker 1: Because listen, you can go where you go, and you
• 20:35
  Speaker 1: probably can get there on your own. And I know
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: a lot of us were. You know, I grew up
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: my mom was a single mom for a long time,
• 20:42
  Speaker 1: so I understand what it feels like to do things
• 20:47
  Speaker 1: solo and get things done. And I can be bad
• 20:50
  Speaker 1: by myself. You sure can't, but you can go further
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: faster with help, with a community, with a support system.
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: Get that set up. Be willing to use that support system.
• 21:06
  Speaker 1: Some of you have support systems, you have people in
• 21:09
  Speaker 1: your lives, but you're not willing to ask for help.
• 21:13
  Speaker 1: And if you're going to get started on anything, I
• 21:16
  Speaker 1: don't know what it is, where it is, how it is,
• 21:18
  Speaker 1: and when it is, but you should be willing to
• 21:21
  Speaker 1: ask for help. And the last thing I will say,
• 21:26
  Speaker 1: if I were to reflect back when you get started,
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I say, adopt when you are willing to adopt a
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: mindset or a mentality of what if. That's when you
• 21:42
  Speaker 1: know you are in a position to get started. And
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: here's what I mean by that. Let me just say this.
• 21:49
  Speaker 1: Doubt is the killer of dreams. The opposite of what
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: if is doubt, because doubt says, you know what, that's
• 22:02
  Speaker 1: what it is right now. I don't see how that's possible.
• 22:06
  Speaker 1: That's what it is right now. I don't know that
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: I can do that. That's what it is right now.
• 22:11
  Speaker 1: Right now. That seems hard. But if you adopt a mentality,
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: a mindset, a language where you speak the talks of
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: the what if. What if I actually went and did that.
• 22:28
  Speaker 1: What would it look like if I did this? What
• 22:32
  Speaker 1: would it look like if I pursued this, What would
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: it look like if I accomplished this? That what if
• 22:41
  Speaker 1: mentality allows you to have free reign over your life
• 22:46
  Speaker 1: and not limit yourself to the doubts and the limitations
• 22:50
  Speaker 1: that are often imposed by culture, often imposed by history.
• 22:57
  Speaker 1: You get to undo that with the what if mentality,
• 23:01
  Speaker 1: the what if attitude, a what if language, and those
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: are the things that are gonna help you get started
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: and keep moving forward, keep showing up. That's the key
• 23:17
  Speaker 1: to all of this. That's been the key and the
• 23:19
  Speaker 1: success to my journey this year, particularly around my health
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: and fitness. This is the first time that my physical
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: fitness as well as my mental fitness as well as
• 23:33
  Speaker 1: my emotional fitness have actually come together in one I've
• 23:38
  Speaker 1: been taking care of the things that are important in
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: that space, like eating right, of course, making my doctor's appointment,
• 23:46
  Speaker 1: lots of movement, lots of cardio, lots of strength and
• 23:51
  Speaker 1: endurance exercises, to really push myself to the limit, to
• 23:57
  Speaker 1: see what I'm made of, to see what I can
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: withstand and what I can pursue without pain. And that's
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: what life is all about. You're going to pursue, but
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: if you stay in practice, you don't have to pursue
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: with pain because each day you are pushing yourself to
• 24:16
  Speaker 1: a new limit. I thought it were interesting when I
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: first started to learn about working out, especially when you
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: start doing weight training, and what you're essentially doing is
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: you're tearing your muscles. And that's why a lot of
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: trainers and a lot of people say you should have
• 24:33
  Speaker 1: a rest day. Well, the rest day is an opportunity
• 24:36
  Speaker 1: to repair what you tear. And a lot of us
• 24:40
  Speaker 1: want to go out there and we want to go pursue,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: and we want to go do and we want to
• 24:45
  Speaker 1: do it at the highest velocity possible with no rest.
• 24:51
  Speaker 1: And so I'm going to encourage you when you get started,
• 24:54
  Speaker 1: be willing to seek rest, to find a place of
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: solitude so that you can keep tearing and building, tearing
• 25:03
  Speaker 1: and building until you have a solid foundation, until you
• 25:07
  Speaker 1: have something that you can now continue to build upon
• 25:12
  Speaker 1: for years and years and years, and you can stay
• 25:15
  Speaker 1: in the game longer. You can be around longer to
• 25:20
  Speaker 1: see and be part of the experience that you're creating,
• 25:25
  Speaker 1: to be able to pick the fruit from the tree
• 25:28
  Speaker 1: that you're planting, the tree that you're nurturing that you
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: have grown over your journey, your growth journey. So I
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: want you to again throw out some of the things
• 25:40
  Speaker 1: that have kept you from starting right, the things like
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: you have to be prepared, and you have to feel ready,
• 25:47
  Speaker 1: and the timing has to be right, and really start
• 25:50
  Speaker 1: focusing on the things that matter most. Your willingness to learn,
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: your willingness to be vulnerable, to be open to ask
• 25:59
  Speaker 1: for help, and to adopt that mentality of what if,
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: Because what if your life turns out exactly the way
• 26:09
  Speaker 1: you dream that it would, What if it did? Think
• 26:16
  Speaker 1: about that for a minute. When I allow myself to
• 26:21
  Speaker 1: go down that path of thinking, I get emotionally and
• 26:24
  Speaker 1: internally energized. It helps me get started and it helps
• 26:28
  Speaker 1: me keep going. And I want you to keep going,
• 26:31
  Speaker 1: keep pursuing, keep pushing. You're gonna get there, but it's
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: gonna take moving out some of the al ways of
• 26:40
  Speaker 1: thinking and ushering in some new things. I hope you
