• 0:29
  From the chicken coop, EV Anybody.
• 0:31
  Alright? Today I want to share with you a
• 0:33
  very cool show. We have been watching on Netflix
• 0:36
  called McGregor forever and it's all about MMA fighter, Colin
• 0:43
  McGregor and he is just an issue.
• 0:48
  Shining example of so many things that we talked about on
• 0:52
  this podcast all the time. However one purpose of talking
• 0:56
  about him today is there's this one particular episode.
• 0:59
  It's a documentary and it Like I think it's four episodes long
• 1:02
  maybe five but the one that I want I want to talk to you about
• 1:05
  the point. I want to talk to you about
• 1:07
  today is he makes reference to the fact that he lost a fight
• 1:14
  and when you watch the documentary it takes you through
• 1:16
  the process of him, getting ready him going into the fight
• 1:20
  and then him losing a fight and it was a significant fight and
• 1:24
  in that world and afterwards how he recovers Is and how he comes
• 1:32
  back from it and what he's, you know, talking about in the
• 1:35
  process of it. So fascinating, but there's this
• 1:38
  one line in it where he's like a couple lines.
• 1:41
  He says there's a little section of dialogue where he's saying,
• 1:44
  you know there, I knew exactly that I wasn't doing what I was
• 1:49
  supposed to be doing. He's like, I would, you know,
• 1:51
  say I was going to do something and then I wouldn't get up.
• 1:54
  I'd say I'm going to get up and work out, and then I wouldn't do
• 1:57
  it. I'd say go a little bit longer,
• 1:59
  but then I wouldn't do it. And No, it was my fault and he's
• 2:03
  like owning it he's completely and totally owning the loss,
• 2:06
  he's not saying anything other than it was always in his head.
• 2:11
  It was always in his head because he knew he was supposed
• 2:14
  to be doing little things. And he was cutting corners and
• 2:17
  he was just not doing the small steps.
• 2:20
  And it really got me thinking about how crazy we all are in
• 2:24
  that situation. We definitely do those same
• 2:28
  things we as human beings. We we all do those same things
• 2:32
  over and over. It might just not be preparing
• 2:34
  for a big fight. It might be for anything else,
• 2:37
  but we know we're not doing the things that we are supposed to
• 2:40
  be doing. We are not doing the little
• 2:42
  particular things that make us go from good to Great to
• 2:46
  outstanding. So I'll give you, I could give
• 2:49
  you a list of examples for myself where those things show
• 2:52
  up. And while I might get in a ton
• 2:55
  of steps and I certainly manage what I eat extraordinarily.
• 2:59
  Well, You know, I constantly am putting in the right amount of
• 3:06
  fuel and my body walking the steps and doing that stuff.
• 3:11
  I know for a fact I should be lifting weights because that's
• 3:15
  one thing that's extremely important to women as they get
• 3:18
  older is to lift weights if they want to be healthy.
• 3:21
  Now sure I'm lifting bags of feed and hay and all this stuff
• 3:24
  out here on the farm, but that doesn't necessarily mean I'm
• 3:28
  lifting weights too. Maintain my body a certain way
• 3:32
  and I think about it and I say I need to do it and it's on my
• 3:36
  list but it is the one thing that I will cut corners on
• 3:40
  because immediately there's not a repercussion from it so it's
• 3:46
  very easy to do that to yourself.
• 3:48
  Got me thinking about since we're at, you know, entering
• 3:51
  into the second half of the Year soon and it is a crazy week.
• 3:59
  I mean we've completed Essentially today, we've
• 4:01
  completed five months of the year and headed into that
• 4:05
  6-month. I'm like, huh, well, what will
• 4:07
  be different in the second second?
• 4:09
  Second months in the second six months than it would be in the
• 4:14
  first. If I don't do something about it
• 4:17
  and when I watch the episode at all, jumped out to me and I
• 4:19
  said, gosh, I wonder you know who else is experiencing this
• 4:23
  and looking at themselves and saying, hey, this is something
• 4:26
  that I really have to pay attention to.
• 4:28
  This is something where I have to kind of Get myself and my
• 4:32
  head wrapped around this, so that I don't have these issues.
• 4:36
  And I think that watching, I'm first of all, we love to watch
• 4:40
  documentaries as a family, but it's just fascinating.
• 4:45
  When you have somebody that's willing to let you in their head
• 4:48
  like that, and the things that you learn from that, the things
• 4:52
  that you see, good, bad, the ugly, all of it is so profoundly
• 4:56
  impactful when you take it from the right place.
• 4:59
  So, for me, Here I am watching something that's supposed to be
• 5:02
  pure entertainment and I can see where my own failings are in it.
• 5:06
  That's a good show, it's moving you in the right direction and
• 5:09
  it made me think and it made me bring this to you.
• 5:12
  So my question for you, really boils down to where you cutting
• 5:16
  corners on the stuff that you know, you should be doing but
• 5:19
  you're not doing because that my friends is where the difference
• 5:23
  between good great. Note standing comes in where
• 5:26
  you're cutting the corners. So I'm going to be doing some
• 5:29
  adjusting I open up to you guys to be doing some adjusting, and
• 5:34
  let's just see where it goes from there because I promise you
• 5:37
  magic happens, when you fix those things, okay?
• 5:40
  My friends. I hope you have a blessed day
• 5:42
  and I will see you all tomorrow. Bye.
• 5:30
  I open up to you guys to be doing some adjusting, and let's
• 5:35
  just see where it goes from there because I promise you
• 5:37
  magic happens, when you fix those things, okay?
• 5:40
  My friends. I hope you have a blessed day
• 5:42
  and I will see you all tomorrow. Bye.
