- 0:00SPEAKER_00: It became apparent that I was the common denominator to all my problems.
- 0:04SPEAKER_00: Today it's just all about patience.
- 0:06SPEAKER_00: As an entrepreneur, as a business owner, when I look at my day now, it's that I am here to solve problems.
- 0:11SPEAKER_00: You frustrated on small problems that really have no value, that create no value for you.
- 0:16SPEAKER_00: And start asking yourself how you can look at problems in a different way, how you can put on lenses and see life through a new lens today.
- 0:29SPEAKER_00: All right, let's go.
- 0:29SPEAKER_00: If you're tired, not feeling fit, tired just having to focus, tired just not having the light that you desire.
- 0:33SPEAKER_00: This is your boys to be I'm Jason Roosey.
- 0:35SPEAKER_00: Today it's just all about patience.
- 0:36SPEAKER_00: You know, in so many phases of my life, I've just had these moments, right?
- 0:40SPEAKER_00: These moments where just a rash decision or just facing things in a harsh way set the stage for the next part of the process to not go very well, right?
- 0:51SPEAKER_00: Because I got angry, frustrated, right, and lacked the mental clarity or sometimes just the mature enough mind to just solely look at the problem at hand and take a step back and ask myself how to solve it.
- 1:04SPEAKER_00: And instead of just doing that in a calm manner and being patient with the result or under patient with the process or just patient with the decision-making aspect, I acted out and acted irrationally.
- 1:17SPEAKER_00: And what came with that?
- 1:18SPEAKER_00: Either nothing good, really, or just an irrational response back.
- 1:22SPEAKER_00: But it created more layers and more pain points and more difficulties and most of the time more problems.
- 1:27SPEAKER_00: And when life goes in a way that you complicate things by taking one problem and making it into three, it just gets harder from there.
- 1:35SPEAKER_00: As an entrepreneur, as a business owner, when I look at my day now, it's that I am here to solve problems.
- 1:41SPEAKER_00: And my goal is to solve bigger and bigger and more and more complex problems because I create more value and I become more valuable, which of course gives me the opportunity to have really the opportunity to make more money, to be a bigger presence, and just to do bigger things.
- 1:57SPEAKER_00: So ask yourself right now, are you frustrated on small problems that really have no value, that create no value for you?
- 2:03SPEAKER_00: And are you using that one as a robot to your success or just as an impediment for a reasoning why you're not happy?
- 2:11SPEAKER_00: It became apparent that I was the common denominator to all my problems.
- 2:16SPEAKER_00: And when you think about that, when you think about that, just that one statement right there, you put yourself in situations that you have to get out of.
- 2:24SPEAKER_00: And either, in many ways, these situations are ones that you didn't create, but at many stages, you make so much work, so much more dramatic, so much more effort.
- 2:34SPEAKER_00: You always see people who act out in ways that are just so off-kilter, right?
- 2:39SPEAKER_00: That if they could have just either had the intelligence or had the positioning or just had the calm mind to step back from it, nothing would have escalated, nothing would have happened further.
- 2:49SPEAKER_00: It would have just been a moment to pass some time.
- 2:51SPEAKER_00: There's many moments in life that one decision, one second can change everything.
- 2:55SPEAKER_00: And when I think about where I've been and where I've come from, just in terms of me fortified, fortifying my mind and thinking about my actions and thinking about my reactions, right?
- 3:07SPEAKER_00: I've come a long way.
- 3:08SPEAKER_00: I've come from a person that is angry.
- 3:10SPEAKER_00: And many times in our childhood, right, we can't, our brains aren't formed, right?
- 3:13SPEAKER_00: So we haven't fully been able to just develop a clear sense of how to respond or how to act.
- 3:19SPEAKER_00: And when that happens, right, we get frustrated.
- 3:21SPEAKER_00: It's like a a baby who can't, you know, speak to say, I'm hungry, right?
- 3:25SPEAKER_00: So the next stage is crying, right?
- 3:28SPEAKER_00: But at a certain part, you know, we've become big babies in our own world because we're not thinking through how to act rationally because we're not getting our way, right?
- 3:35SPEAKER_00: We throw our toys and start, you know, kicking and screaming.
- 3:37SPEAKER_00: It's our own level of just being a big baby.
- 3:39SPEAKER_00: So as you go through your moment of time right now, are you really putting in the work in yourself to see life through a clear lens, to see life in a way that you can look at it and understand that everybody has problems.
- 3:53SPEAKER_00: You're not out there on an island with just all the problems.
- 3:58SPEAKER_00: You know, Socrates says that if we took the world's problems and we put them into one big pile and then we cut all the world's problems into even slices and handed them out, the majority of the entire world would be begging for their original problems.
- 4:12SPEAKER_00: We have the luck of a great life, the luck of coming into many ways a place that gives us opportunity.
- 4:20SPEAKER_00: It gives us the ability to go out there and try without repercussions from many different factions, including government factions, right?
- 4:28SPEAKER_00: We have the ability to work on ourselves, to become better, to transform our body, our mind, our spirit in many ways to just become better.
- 4:36SPEAKER_00: Yet we try to complicate the problem at hand by blaming everything around us, which makes one problem into 10, and 10 problems into 20, and 20 problems into 100.
- 4:46SPEAKER_00: And next thing you know, we're filled with just problem after problem.
- 4:50SPEAKER_00: We think that's the light that was dealt to us.
- 4:53SPEAKER_00: When in fact, we're the ones who just created all the problems.
- 4:55SPEAKER_00: We're the ones who put the problems in front of us and made the problems worse.
- 4:58SPEAKER_00: You know, one thing I've started to do is I've started to meditate daily and just six minutes to seven minutes in the morning.
- 5:04SPEAKER_00: And am I good at it?
- 5:06SPEAKER_00: No, you're never good.
- 5:07SPEAKER_00: You're never proficient.
- 5:09SPEAKER_00: But it's one moment where I have to sit there with myself and be present and notice when I'm distracted and just come back to my breath and just take that time to work on myself.
- 5:19SPEAKER_00: We all think we need these big blocks of time, hours, days, weeks, these journeys to go on these transformational changes.
- 5:26SPEAKER_00: But just think of all the things that you can get done just a few minutes each day.
- 5:30SPEAKER_00: You know, 10 minutes a day is more powerful than trying to find three hours in a week.
- 5:34SPEAKER_00: Put the work in on yourself daily.
- 5:36SPEAKER_00: Understand that you, if you are a business owner, an entrepreneur, you solve problems.
- 5:41SPEAKER_00: And the more value that can be created from your thinking, from your ways to solve these problems, the more you become valuable, the more the world will see you as valuable, and the more that you will act as a artistic member in this world.
- 5:56SPEAKER_00: So stop making things worse.
- 5:58SPEAKER_00: Simple as that.
- 5:59SPEAKER_00: Stop making things in front of you that much worse and start asking yourself how you can look at problems in a different way, how you can put on lenses and see life through a new lens today.
- 6:08SPEAKER_00: And honestly, just how you could stop making things worse and start finding a way to make things better.
- 6:14SPEAKER_00: All right, that's what I have for you today.
- 6:15SPEAKER_00: I'm Jason Roosy.
- 6:16SPEAKER_00: This is the Little Wonder Podcast.
- 6:18SPEAKER_00: Let's do this.
