Speaker 1: Hello, my friends from all across the globe, and welcome
0:23
Speaker 1: to your Enriched Self podcast. I am your host, Mylen Noir.
0:28
Speaker 1: I am an emotional wellness and empowerment coach, and what
0:32
Speaker 1: that means is I am looking out for you. I
0:35
Speaker 1: know that in the life and in the spaces that
0:38
Speaker 1: you occupy all throughout your day, it is rare that
0:42
Speaker 1: you spend time managing your thoughts and so on this podcast,
0:46
Speaker 1: what we do each and every week is we talk
0:49
Speaker 1: about the things that are going to help you become
0:53
Speaker 1: more of your enrich self. And it all starts with
0:55
Speaker 1: your mindset. It starts with the things that you have
0:58
Speaker 1: implanted in your mind and when you start reaping those
1:02
Speaker 1: things and they become the harvest of your life. So
1:06
Speaker 1: your thoughts do become things. And that's what we talk
1:08
Speaker 1: about on the podcast because I want you to become
1:11
Speaker 1: more of your enriched self. So, if you're new to
1:13
Speaker 1: this podcast, this platform, this conversation, I want to welcome
1:17
Speaker 1: you and thank you for being here. I know that
1:19
Speaker 1: you were brought here on purpose for a purpose. If
1:23
Speaker 1: you are a repeat listener, that means you've been rocking
1:26
Speaker 1: with me for over two hundred and thirty episodes. We're
1:29
Speaker 1: on episode two thirty four, and it could not happen
1:33
Speaker 1: without you, your listenership, you sharing, liking, commenting on this
1:38
Speaker 1: podcast has kept us going for these years and all
1:44
Speaker 1: these hundreds of episodes later. So I want to thank
1:47
Speaker 1: you from the bottom of my heart. Now, if you know,
1:51
Speaker 1: you know, one of the things I do on the
1:53
Speaker 1: podcast each and every week is I make a deposit
1:57
Speaker 1: into the bank of you, and I do that by
1:59
Speaker 1: way of affirmations. Affirmations are a great way to start
2:04
Speaker 1: your day and to command your morning. And this week's
2:10
Speaker 1: affirmation is I am growing, learning and becoming everything I
2:18
Speaker 1: am meant to be. I am growing, learning and becoming
2:25
Speaker 1: everything I am meant to be. I am growing, learning
2:32
Speaker 1: and becoming everything I am meant to be. Now, let's
2:41
Speaker 1: get ready for this week's episode of the Your Enriched
2:46
Speaker 1: Self podcast. I was talking to a coworker the other day,
2:52
Speaker 1: just explaining how tiresome has been coming into the building,
2:58
Speaker 1: because each day is amazed. Each day is just a
3:00
Speaker 1: different part of many, many things that are happening. You see,
3:05
Speaker 1: my building is under construction, and what that means is
3:11
Speaker 1: some days it's loud, some days it's dusty, some days
3:16
Speaker 1: they're obstacles in and around the areas and the pathways
3:20
Speaker 1: that we have to go. Most days, it's inconvenient because
3:24
Speaker 1: the things that were placed in convenient spaces are under construction,
3:29
Speaker 1: such as the cafeteria and some other community spaces that
3:34
Speaker 1: now we don't have access to and we won't for months,
3:38
Speaker 1: probably most of this year, And so we are in
3:42
Speaker 1: a season of Yet. We know what we had before
3:48
Speaker 1: needed to change, we know it required an update, and
3:52
Speaker 1: we are now in the middle of that update. And
3:56
Speaker 1: so we are not there yet. And I want to
3:59
Speaker 1: talk talk to people in a space or in a
4:03
Speaker 1: season of yet, where where you want to be. You're
4:11
Speaker 1: not quite there yet, You're still under construction. But there
4:18
Speaker 1: is a power in yet. It is yes, releasing the past,
4:23
Speaker 1: and it is making space, as we are doing in
4:26
Speaker 1: my office each and every day, is making space for possibility.
4:32
Speaker 1: I want you to see yet as an action word,
4:36
Speaker 1: like a word that bridges together you're past to your possibility.
4:44
Speaker 1: It's not denying where you are, I mean certainly, it's
4:48
Speaker 1: not denying where you've been, and it's not denying what
4:51
Speaker 1: you see right now, because again, what we see, what
4:53
Speaker 1: we experience is lots of inconveniences, but Yet refuses for
5:02
Speaker 1: you to stop. It is truly an acknowledgment of the
5:09
Speaker 1: present reality. Like I said, all the things that are
5:11
Speaker 1: happening each day. Some days it's too much, but it
5:16
Speaker 1: also settles in my mind that this is not permanent,
5:23
Speaker 1: and I'm giving myself permission to believe for something better,
5:28
Speaker 1: something greater. Basically having an intentional openness about the Yet.
5:36
Speaker 1: When you think of your own story, I want you
5:39
Speaker 1: to use YET powerfully. I don't want you to feel
5:46
Speaker 1: like it's a delulu moment or a toxic positivity. It's
5:52
Speaker 1: not saying that everything is fine. It's saying that I
5:56
Speaker 1: haven't gotten there yet, that that the thing has shaped me,
6:05
Speaker 1: that yes, that thing happened. And one of my favorite
6:10
Speaker 1: things about the Yet is this is not the end
6:14
Speaker 1: of my story. I would always share that advice with
6:19
Speaker 1: friends and family. And anyone who's going through a season
6:23
Speaker 1: of Yet has dealt with a failure, has dealt with
6:27
Speaker 1: the construction season. And you know that season, and I
6:32
Speaker 1: know that season, especially right now being in the middle
6:35
Speaker 1: of it. It is a messy season. Nothing about the
6:38
Speaker 1: season of Yet gets to be easy. There's going to
6:43
Speaker 1: be some mess in it. What I don't want you
6:47
Speaker 1: to do when you're in that season is to settle. Yes,
6:52
Speaker 1: the dust might settle in that construction moment, but you
6:57
Speaker 1: are not to settle in your year yet. There are
7:03
Speaker 1: so many things you haven't done yet, experience yet, seen
7:07
Speaker 1: yet been a part of. Yet Yet is again that
7:12
Speaker 1: bridge to your possibility, bridge to opportunity, bridge to new thinking,
7:18
Speaker 1: new mindset. I think we take yet for granted, we
7:28
Speaker 1: forget how powerful it is. Yet is your opportunity to
7:36
Speaker 1: participate in your becoming. It is now you putting attention
7:44
Speaker 1: and intention in how you will experience the next season
7:49
Speaker 1: of your life, planning for it, preparing for it, having
7:53
Speaker 1: your readiness, plan for it, because it's going to happen.
7:58
Speaker 1: And I believe that's where some people, well, it's delusional
8:01
Speaker 1: for you to think that this is what's going to happen.
8:05
Speaker 1: But you haven't experienced the next thing yet. So how
8:08
Speaker 1: do you know what's going to happen when you haven't
8:11
Speaker 1: even been there yet. It's important to know where your
8:20
Speaker 1: focus goes. That's your attention, and you can focus on
8:25
Speaker 1: this like you know, it feels fake, or you can
8:29
Speaker 1: focus on your yet as what's possible for you. Think
8:37
Speaker 1: about a person who doesn't have a level of confidence
8:41
Speaker 1: presenting themselves in a meeting with their peers, their manager,
8:46
Speaker 1: you know, other leaders in the business. You can say
8:53
Speaker 1: to yourself, if you are that person, I'm not confident
8:58
Speaker 1: in this process of speaking in this forum with this
9:04
Speaker 1: engage audience. Yet somebody else might look at that as
9:10
Speaker 1: a total embarrassment, a total misstep, and some people might
9:17
Speaker 1: not even want to try when they're in the season
9:22
Speaker 1: of Yet because of that embarrassment. It's the same approach
9:31
Speaker 1: when you think about both people not being confident, but
9:35
Speaker 1: one person sees embarrassment when the other person says, you know,
9:41
Speaker 1: I felt better this week than I did the last.
9:47
Speaker 1: One person is going somewhere and one person is stuck
9:51
Speaker 1: in the past, and you're yet Again. Is a bridge
9:55
Speaker 1: between where you've been, your past, and your possibility, but
10:00
Speaker 1: it's not a place where you are stuck. The lights
10:05
Speaker 1: are on in the season of Yet. We've never walked
10:08
Speaker 1: into a dark building. With all the construction that's happening,
10:11
Speaker 1: with all the noise that's happening, It's never disrupted where
10:15
Speaker 1: we're going. It's never disrupted what we can see so yes,
10:20
Speaker 1: it is a messy season, but you can still be productive.
10:27
Speaker 1: You might not be disciplined yet in that thing. The
10:31
Speaker 1: experience might not be perfect yet, it might not be
10:34
Speaker 1: ideal yet. But each day I would imagine there is
10:39
Speaker 1: a construction manager that is looking at those daily non negotiables,
10:45
Speaker 1: those little things that may not seem like anything to
10:49
Speaker 1: me because I'm not project managing it, or I'm not
10:53
Speaker 1: following the life cycle of all the things that are happening.
10:58
Speaker 1: But I promise there is someone tracking those daily non negotiables,
11:02
Speaker 1: those daily tasks, steps that need to happen, that are
11:07
Speaker 1: happening so that they can eventually arrive at the Yet
11:16
Speaker 1: knowing that we're not finished yet, we have this much
11:19
Speaker 1: to do, We have these additional tasks to take, these
11:22
Speaker 1: steps to take. I want you to invite yet to
11:29
Speaker 1: your vocabulary. You know, the things we say are very
11:34
Speaker 1: significant to how we frame our world, we frame our life,
11:39
Speaker 1: and how we really truly believe about ourselves. When you
11:46
Speaker 1: don't have yet in your life, it feels like it's final.
11:50
Speaker 1: And like I said, I always share that what you've
11:54
Speaker 1: been through, good, bad, or indifferent is not the end
11:57
Speaker 1: of your story. There is greater things to experience, he said,
12:00
Speaker 1: And I said good, bad, and indifferent, because yes, you
12:02
Speaker 1: might have might have had a good or even a
12:05
Speaker 1: great day, but you don't know that you have greater
12:09
Speaker 1: days ahead yet. See this doesn't just go for those
12:15
Speaker 1: moments of under construction where there's noise and dust and
12:20
Speaker 1: all the things. There are moments in your life that
12:25
Speaker 1: have been amazing, But that's a level of amazing that
12:31
Speaker 1: you haven't even experienced yet, that goes far beyond what
12:34
Speaker 1: you've experienced thus far. I mentioned yet as a way
12:40
Speaker 1: to reframe. There are people like you who are rebuilding
12:46
Speaker 1: their life after a health scare, after losing a career,
12:55
Speaker 1: a business, a relationship like a divorce. Those are real
13:03
Speaker 1: life opportunities for you to reframe the power of Yet.
13:15
Speaker 1: Pull your yet into those conversations to say things, you
13:20
Speaker 1: know what, I'm not where I want to be yet,
13:23
Speaker 1: I can't see or don't see the full picture yet,
13:30
Speaker 1: but I'm gonna keep moving. You're yet is your opportunity
13:42
Speaker 1: to know that, yes, you are still under construction. Yes,
13:48
Speaker 1: it is an opportunity for you to see and respect
13:53
Speaker 1: the journey that you've been through. But I challenge you
13:59
Speaker 1: as you look, look at this season of yet that
14:01
Speaker 1: you're in from whatever angle, whatever position that your lens
14:09
Speaker 1: of life is being viewed from. I want you to
14:15
Speaker 1: refuse that it be your ceiling, that it be the
14:20
Speaker 1: highest level of yet that you will achieve. Yet. Don't
14:25
Speaker 1: let it be passive. Be open to the future of
14:29
Speaker 1: your yets because there's so much more out there yet,
14:35
Speaker 1: let it be active, Let it be now, and before
14:44
Speaker 1: you leave, I want to bring this to you. When
14:48
Speaker 1: you think about your yet, your language instead of I
14:55
Speaker 1: can't do this, it becomes I can't do this yet.
15:00
Speaker 1: Turn your failure into progress. As I mentioned, you haven't
15:10
Speaker 1: seen your best days yet yet, protects your hope. You
15:16
Speaker 1: haven't reached your highest levels yet, you haven't met every
15:20
Speaker 1: opportunity that is meant for you yet. And finally, you're
15:28
Speaker 1: Yet is your vehicle to keep moving. It's proof that
15:33
Speaker 1: your story isn't over yet. It is a vehicle that
15:41
Speaker 1: you can use to create a space in your life
15:46
Speaker 1: to keep learning, to keep trying, and to keep becoming
15:54
Speaker 1: more of your enriched self. I hope you enjoyed this
