  Speaker 1: What's up, family?
• 0:07
  Speaker 1: It's Dr Sweet, and welcome back.
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: Welcome back to Trust Yourself.
• 0:12
  Speaker 1: Thursday, and you're listening to the Sweet Spot.
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: Alright, today I want to talk to you about something we all struggle with at times, and that's trusting the big picture, even when life feels hard and the path seems dim and the road ahead does not seem clear.
• 0:36
  Speaker 1: You ever feel like that Sometimes.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: I feel like that You're putting the work in, you're doing everything right and you can't catch a break.
• 0:45
  Speaker 1: The results just aren't showing up for you.
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: It's like you're planting seeds but you haven't seen anything bloom in a while.
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: Well, this is where trust comes in.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: Here's the thing you can't really see trust, you can't really hold on to it and grow it.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: It's not that tangible.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: But trust is this invisible force, this invisible thing that says I know this struggle is a part of the process and I have the faith Yep, the faith that something greater is working behind the scenes for me, have you ever been there where you've had to trust in something bigger?
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: Listen, it's easy to trust, as you know, when things are going well, when they're going smoothly.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: But real trust shows up in the very tough, hard times and I'll bet, if we look back, each of us has had a time when we were up against something that was so much bigger than we were, a Goliath of some kind.
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: That made things so uncertain that we didn't have any idea what would happen next.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: And somehow you made it through.
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: You put your trust in something.
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: Maybe that trust started out with trusting yourself, which is not a bad place to start, but it got so deep that you had to put your faith in something bigger than you, bigger than ourselves.
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: And I don't know about you, but everybody has some place or something that gives them meaning.
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: It could be the universe, it could be God.
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: I'm remembering a quote from the Torah right Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lead not to your own understanding.
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: That's about releasing the need to have all the answers right now.
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: In the Quran it says indeed, with hardship comes ease, a powerful reminder right that tells us that struggles we face are temporary and that on the other side of every struggle is some kind of relief and answer.
• 3:13
  Speaker 1: Tough times are preparing us for something greater.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: Hardships come with ease, and in the scriptures we are commanded to walk by faith and not by sight.
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: In 2 Corinthians, that we are more than conquerors.
• 3:31
  Speaker 1: We have this identity in us that we're bigger than our situation.
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: So today it's Trust Yourself Thursday, and here's the challenge.
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: Think of a time where you have faced uncertainty.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Maybe you're facing it right now.
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: Don't just rely on your own wiles and your own skills.
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: Trust that the same big strength, the same big faith that you demonstrated before, will be with you now and empower you to see every step of the path lead you to the right source of solution and light.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: All right, that's what it is about here today.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: On Trust Yourself Thursday, remember, fam, the bigger picture might not always be visible, but you're exactly where you need to be right now.
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: You have enough within you to make this happen.
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: You trust the process.
• 4:31
  Speaker 1: Trust yourself, trust that that which is within you is greater than anything that you can face in the world, and let's keep it moving.
• 4:41
