• 0:28
  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  Ooh, So today we're are talking about how lip service gets in
• 0:34
  our way the act of lip service is.
• 0:37
  So let me explain for those of you who may have not heard of
• 0:40
  that term before. The active lip service is, when
• 0:42
  you are saying the right words, but you have absolutely no
• 0:45
  intent or the slightest belief that anything that you are
• 0:48
  saying is going to matter, make a difference, you don't believe
• 0:52
  in the prayer. You don't believe in the
• 0:53
  thought, you don't believe in the action of it.
• 0:55
  You're just going through the motions to get it out and make
• 0:58
  it end and this process. I believe in our society has
• 1:02
  become a very, very predominant Force.
• 1:08
  Let's say of action and how it just affects so much because
• 1:13
  people are constantly saying one thing and doing another.
• 1:17
  And when you actually find someone that lives up to their
• 1:20
  word as I like to say, it's a rarity and you need to keep
• 1:24
  those people and you need to cherish them because those
• 1:26
  people are special. They are definitely special.
• 1:30
  And I don't even realize, I don't really think that a lot of
• 1:35
  people realize how lip service is affecting everybody around
• 1:39
  them to me. I think it's something that
• 1:43
  we've become so habitually conditioned to that we ourselves
• 1:47
  do it. We say one thing and we do
• 1:49
  another and you've heard me talk before about how don't lie to
• 1:53
  yourself. It falls in that category.
• 1:56
  Again when you say something, do you really mean it are you are
• 1:59
  you working on it? Sure.
• 2:00
  What maybe you'll fail, but you're still intending on
• 2:03
  working on it and it's the intent behind the scenes that
• 2:06
  matters. So this idea of lip service, the
• 2:10
  this idea of being able to believe in it.
• 2:14
  One of the places where I really want to focus on this particular
• 2:18
  subject, is what you believe behind the scenes about how
• 2:22
  you're going to handle yourself and what you're going to do
• 2:26
  moving forward with it. So if we, if we intend to do
• 2:30
  something, And often this shows up in our business world where
• 2:33
  we're like, okay we're going to do this, we're going to make
• 2:37
  this happen, this is the month, we're getting the marketing done
• 2:39
  and there's no question about it.
• 2:42
  This is what I'm doing and it sounds great.
• 2:46
  You might even make a list, might even be on your clipboard
• 2:49
  and you've got a list and you're like, okay I'm ready.
• 2:52
  I got this all done, I've got it in my notes, in my iPhone I'm
• 2:55
  good and then it falls by the wayside or it gets pushed to a
• 2:59
  different date or you say. To do something and it doesn't
• 3:03
  happen. And all of a sudden you come to
• 3:05
  the end of the month and you're looking at what has happened and
• 3:08
  transpired over the course of the month and it's nothing that
• 3:11
  you thought it was going to be. There's absolutely not one thing
• 3:14
  that you thought it was going to be done and you in that at least
• 3:18
  in that Arena that you gave lip service to and you set it to the
• 3:22
  team. He said this is what we're going
• 3:23
  to get done and all of a sudden it's not there.
• 3:25
  It's blank and you're like, what happened?
• 3:28
  Where did the time go? What where did it all go?
• 3:30
  Did I possibly miss out on this? Well, you missed out on it
• 3:34
  because you gave it lip service but you didn't give it the
• 3:37
  attention that it critically needed in order to get done.
• 3:40
  And that attention is the part. That's so precious it and I
• 3:45
  truly mean that in that sense you have to treat things like
• 3:49
  that. Like they are important, they
• 3:51
  are precious and you are going to do it, no matter what.
• 3:55
  So sometimes you have to change your approach.
• 3:57
  I recently have done this where I recognize that a Project that
• 4:01
  I want to get done is not getting done and it's not
• 4:03
  getting done because I'm working with clients and I am guilty of
• 4:08
  working in my business and not on my business as congruently as
• 4:11
  I need to. So, I had to do something, hire,
• 4:15
  an assistant, excellent, she's getting it taken care of on lots
• 4:18
  of levels. Now besides that, you know what
• 4:22
  hire, one of your clients that can go and do the website work
• 4:25
  that needs to be done. Excellent.
• 4:26
  Let's get that taken care of and we started that process because
• 4:31
  Here's the truth. I cannot be everywhere for
• 4:34
  everyone all the time and I need to change my Approach.
• 4:37
  So that's what I'm doing. And when you recognize that you
• 4:40
  have limitations and you're real with yourself and you're not
• 4:43
  just giving lip service to a subject, you can truly do some
• 4:46
  greater good and that's the intent.
• 4:49
  That is the complete intent with this.
• 4:51
  So, where are you giving lip service in your life?
• 4:54
  What are the things that you're talking about that you're not
• 4:57
  actually following through on? What are the things that you
• 4:59
  know that? Absolutely have no choice that
• 5:03
  you have to pay a little bit more attention to and stop just
• 5:06
  giving lip service to it. Whether it's your health,
• 5:08
  whether it's, you know, working out whether it's learning
• 5:12
  reading getting help for yourself figuring out A Better
• 5:15
  Way, cleaning your house. I've had a lot of people
• 5:18
  recently talked about how they have so much clutter and they
• 5:22
  can't take it or they haven't put laundry away for forever.
• 5:26
  There's piles of laundry sitting all around and they haven't put
• 5:29
  it away. They're just living on The pile
• 5:31
  of laundry or they go and they shop and they don't put the
• 5:34
  groceries away, they just basically leave them hanging
• 5:36
  around because you know the hell I'm just going to eat them
• 5:41
  anyway. Well there's something to be
• 5:44
  said for creating that order that you crave and if you are
• 5:48
  thinking about it and you're saying I wish it was like this.
• 5:51
  Oh I wish I was organized. Oh, I wish I had this done in my
• 5:55
  case. I wish the website was you know,
• 5:57
  doing things for me instead of just being a placeholder.
• 6:01
  Then we don't wish our lives away my friends.
• 6:03
  We fix it. And the wish is the indication.
• 6:06
  It has to get done. No more lip service getting help
• 6:10
  is the key the key. So make your list.
• 6:14
  Figure it out. I'll see you guys tomorrow.
• 6:16
  Hope you have a blessed day. Bye.
