- 0:24Speaker 1: a little something that I do regularly. each and every afternoon.
- 0:27Speaker 1: It's called stream thinking. It's learning how to trust what
- 0:30Speaker 1: is in your present place of right now. And of course,
- 0:32Speaker 1: to get there is going to require some practice. It
- 0:35Speaker 1: is one sheet of paper every day, just 10 freaking minutes.
- 0:40Speaker 1: Write about whatever is moving through your presence of now.
- 0:43Speaker 1: If you're pissed off, get it off your chest. If
- 0:45Speaker 1: you're feeling sad, get it out of your heart. Whatever
- 0:48Speaker 1: is moving through your now. If you're higher than a kite,
- 0:51Speaker 1: oh my God, let's see what you've got tonight. It's
- 0:54Speaker 1: absolutely no judgment. Write whatever is moving through your presence
- 0:59Speaker 1: of right now. Stream Thinking is going to sharpen your
- 1:01Speaker 1: skills as a listener, as a communicator, and as an activator.
- 1:06Speaker 1: It is learning how to trust what is in you
- 1:09Speaker 1: right now. This is Stream Thinking. Today we're reading from
- 1:12Speaker 1: December 8th, 2025, The Punt. We all have The Punt,
- 1:18Speaker 1: because we do The Punt almost every day, if not
- 1:22Speaker 1: on the hour. I seem to always be setting myself
- 1:25Speaker 1: up for this punt thing. It's when you're very close
- 1:29Speaker 1: to the end zone of your next goal, but science
- 1:32Speaker 1: says you ain't going in. So what do you do? Well,
- 1:35Speaker 1: you gotta punt. In that last 30 days, you've punted
- 1:40Speaker 1: the ball how many times before getting a PTD? That
- 1:43Speaker 1: would be a personal touchdown. It's as if we're setting
- 1:46Speaker 1: ourselves up for a situation of making it a difficult sacrifice.
- 1:51Speaker 1: And I am guilty as charged when it comes to this.
- 1:55Speaker 1: Making a run for the end zone, the ambition, the
- 1:59Speaker 1: failed cost, the conclusion... Yeah, it's called progress meeting process.
- 2:06Speaker 1: Take note of your punts. Ask yourself why you lean
- 2:11Speaker 1: more into the punt and not get into the end zone.
- 2:17Speaker 1: Do you think it's because we're addicted to shortcuts? Or
- 2:21Speaker 1: we try so hard that we just give up trying,
- 2:24Speaker 1: knowing that the greatest of the greats, the best of
- 2:26Speaker 1: the best before us, It was over and over again,
- 2:30Speaker 1: and I'm always inspired by Thomas Edison and the light bulb.
- 2:33Speaker 1: But all of these great things, we never really take
- 2:37Speaker 1: the time to learn the entire journey of how something
- 2:41Speaker 1: came into being. I mean, AI technology, do you think
- 2:44Speaker 1: it just happened? Do you think it's an overnight success?
- 2:46Speaker 1: Hell no. It started in 1943, okay? How many punts
- 2:52Speaker 1: do you think they took to get to the center
- 2:54Speaker 1: of this Tootsie Roll? Okay, so here's the thing. Understanding
- 2:58Speaker 1: why you're punting is one thing, but to whip out
- 3:02Speaker 1: the punt just to get something on the scoreboard, is
- 3:04Speaker 1: that really your answer? And that's why I do a
- 3:07Speaker 1: thing called defragging. I go in there and I ask
- 3:09Speaker 1: myself the questions and then I question myself and I
- 3:13Speaker 1: try to get different answers so I can come up
- 3:15Speaker 1: with even more questions. But we waste so much time
- 3:18Speaker 1: doing the punt. In other words, you're always asking somebody
- 3:21Speaker 1: else who has never worn a pair of your shoes
- 3:25Speaker 1: or even put your stinky ass toothbrush into your mouth.
- 3:29Speaker 1: And yet you're going to go ask them for some instructions.
- 3:31Speaker 1: That's called the punt. I thought you wanted to score
- 3:35Speaker 1: in the end zone. You got to get in. You
- 3:38Speaker 1: can't be always relying on the punt. I'm Errol and
- 3:42Speaker 1: that's Stream Thinking.
