  Speaker 1: I am very open to that. I am aware that
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: it may be tough, but I am here to persist
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: and prevail. Hello, my friends from all across the globe
• 1:54
  Speaker 1: and welcome to the Your and Ridself Podcast. I am
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: your host, MII Lee Noir. I am an emotional wellness
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: and empowerment coach and all that means and what we do,
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: what I get to do each and every week, is
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: to share the journey of becoming more enriched. And we
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: do that from the inside out. We work on all
• 2:14
  Speaker 1: of the things that typically don't get the exposure. Right,
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: we keep our thoughts internally, we think about these things
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: and oftentimes we don't. And so here on this podcast,
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: I give you a safe space to let out your
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: thoughts where you get to plant the seeds that you
• 2:33
  Speaker 1: will eventually harvest. And it's so important to manage, to maintain,
• 2:38
  Speaker 1: to nurture those thoughts. And so that's what we do
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: on this podcast. We manage, we maintain, and we nurture
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: those thoughts because those thoughts become the words that you
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: speak over your life, and those words become the action
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: and the activity. If you are new to this podcast,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: I want to welcome you. I want to thank you
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: for being here. I know that you were brought here
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: on purpose for a purpose. If you are a repeating listener,
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: that means you have been showing up, showing out, participating
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: for now one hundred and sixty seven episodes over three
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: years of being enriched, working on being enriched, and all
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: the things that come in between. So I want to
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: thank you. Without you, we don't have a podcast. So
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: from the bottom of my heart, thank you, thank you,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: thank you. Now, before we get started with this week episode,
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: one of the things that I do each and every
• 3:32
  Speaker 1: week is I make a deposit into the bank of you,
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: and I do that by way of affirmations. Affirmations are
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: a great way to start your day and to command
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: your morning. And this week's affirmation is I am in
• 3:57
  Speaker 1: the energy of gratitude. I am in the energy of gratitude.
• 4:06
  Speaker 1: I am in the energy of gratitude. Now let's get
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: ready for this week's episode of the Your Enriched Self podcast.
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: Listen.
• 4:23
  Speaker 1: I'm so excited for this series of unpacking beliefs. I
• 4:26
  Speaker 1: believe that it is an exercise that every single one
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: of you must do so that you can get to
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: the best version of yourself, so that you can become
• 4:34
  Speaker 1: more of your enriched self. And my journey of unpacking
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: beliefs has helped me become more of the person I
• 4:42
  Speaker 1: want to be, to be more enriched, to live a
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: life that's more enriched, and to be able to give,
• 4:48
  Speaker 1: not just live, but give like I've never been able
• 4:50
  Speaker 1: to give before. And it starts with unpacking beliefs. There
• 4:53
  Speaker 1: are things in your life, and there were things in
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: my life, and there's still some things in my life
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: that I have worked hard to unpack.
• 5:02
  Speaker 2: But it took me making mistakes.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: It took me making what some of us would call
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: a fool of ourselves.
• 5:09
  Speaker 2: It took me.
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: Just going through trial and error, day by day, inch
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: by inch, until I was able to accomplish, until I
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: was able to get a new perspective and see exactly
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: what it is that I was supposed to see, so
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: I can make the change, so I can do the
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: things that I must do to better myself. And so
• 5:31
  Speaker 1: as I'm embarking on this milestone birthday, I wanted to
• 5:36
  Speaker 1: share those beliefs that I've had to unpack. And this afternoon,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: I sit here on this beautiful lawn in this beautiful park,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: and it's absolutely a gorgeous day, and I absolutely love
• 5:51
  Speaker 1: being outdoors. When I do my workouts, and we do
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: the Thursday workouts it's probably my best day because I'm
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: just so invigorated by being outdoors.
• 6:00
  Speaker 2: It brings out the best in me.
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: And so when I get to be outdoors, it brings
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: out the best in me, but it also brings out
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: the bugs. It also brings out the noise and nature,
• 6:09
  Speaker 1: and I welcome that, and I encourage you to welcome that.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: As you listen to this, you might hear a few
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: things here or there, even maybe some lawn being cut
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: or different things like that, So just be patient with that.
• 6:19
  Speaker 2: But yeah, as.
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: I think about this past year and the things that
• 6:24
  Speaker 1: I've had to unpack and put away, there's a story
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: that comes to me one of the things I've been doing.
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: So I hope that you can understand that. So in
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: understanding that, I just want you to understand that there's
• 6:43
  Speaker 1: a lot about the process that you are enduring, that
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: you are undergoing that's not gonna be perfect. For example,
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: me being outdoors, it's not gonna be perfect. It's not
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: gonna have perfect audio, But the heart, the soul is
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: going to be into this episode. And like I said,
• 6:58
  Speaker 1: I thrive outside, feel my best outside, and I had
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: to unpack the belief that everything had to be perfect
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: right from the start. I recognize that, and I hope
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: you recognize that you are just human, and as human,
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: you are going to have days that are good and
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: bad and everything in between. And as you recognize that
• 7:20
  Speaker 1: and you allow yourself to just live with that understanding,
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: you are not going to be as strong in your
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: position to make everything absolutely perfect. And I'm not saying
• 7:32
  Speaker 1: we should not strive to make things better and strive
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: to improve, because that's what living is all about. Every
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: day we want to do something to be better. We
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: want to move into the new season of our life,
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: whether it's a birthday season, or a new job season,
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: or a family season, or building a house or building
• 7:52
  Speaker 1: you know, whatever it is your business.
• 7:53
  Speaker 2: You want to get incrementally better as you go along.
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: You don't want to be the exact same version of
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: yourself or of your business or whatever that you were
• 8:04
  Speaker 1: three months ago, five months ago, five years ago. You
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: want to know that there's been marked improvement and what
• 8:11
  Speaker 1: I had to unpack over the course of the years
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: and really just focus in on because I think we
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: all know this stuff, but we don't focus in on
• 8:19
  Speaker 1: it because life gets busy.
• 8:20
  Speaker 2: We get busy, we.
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: Get caught up in everything and oftentimes caught up in
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: other people's everything. And what I want to do with
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: this series, what I'm doing with my life, is I'm
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: unpacking the beliefs that quite honestly, has held me back
• 8:35
  Speaker 1: from doing and being and living in my best season.
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: And a lot of times when it comes to unpacking
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: the belief that things don't have to be perfect, it's
• 8:45
  Speaker 1: because we don't want to look silly.
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: We don't want people to think.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: Is that really what she's doing? We really don't want
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: people to think she could have done better. You know what,
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: I know, I'm doing better than a majority of people
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: who aren't doing anything. And again, this is not anything
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: about bragging rights. It's execution. You have to execute. When
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: you execute, you get to see what you've done. And
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: when you see what you've done, whether it's through results
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: or maybe you have a video of what you said
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: or done, you can start making changes. You can start iterating.
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: I was recently watching the story about Peyton Manning. So
• 9:28
  Speaker 1: I lived in Indianapolis, and in Indianapolis, whether you love
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: it or not, like it or not, you're gonna get
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: enamored with everything Indianapolis colts. And there was a season
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: when Peyton Manning was an Indianapolis Colts. As a matter
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: of fact, Peyton had come on board and been part
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: of Colts Nation and been a cult for a number
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: of years. But when Peyton emerged as an Indianapolis cult,
• 9:56
  Speaker 1: the entire state of Indiana lost it. I mean, people
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: were just ready to worship this guy, right, People were
• 10:07
  Speaker 1: all about Peyton Manning, the Mannings.
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: I had no idea.
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: I had not followed, you know, college football, and of
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: course the family name held a lot of merit, a
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: lot of weight in that space, and so for him
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: to come to Indianapolis was a huge deal for Indianapolis.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: And so we heard about it every week. I promise you,
• 10:28
  Speaker 1: every week it was all about Peyton Manning. Well, recently,
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: I was watching a show, kind of a documentary, and
• 10:36
  Speaker 1: if you know me, you know I love a documentary.
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: And I'm watching this documentary about Peyton Manning and his story.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: And I've watched a documentary documentary on Tom Brady and
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: his story of getting to the NFL. And I promise you,
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: after you watch someone's story, after you listen to someone's story,
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: you start to generate a level of appreciation for them
• 11:00
  Speaker 1: and about them. That you hadn't before, because I promise you.
• 11:03
  Speaker 1: Prior to that, I just thought, why are they making
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: such a deal of this guy. Keep in mind, I'm
• 11:08
  Speaker 1: not a big college girl, lee, and I wasn't watching
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: college sports at the time. Every now and again, I
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: do so, but quite honestly, I don't really get into
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: as much.
• 11:18
  Speaker 2: My sister does.
• 11:19
  Speaker 1: I don't needless to say I get it now. I
• 11:22
  Speaker 1: understand why this guy is who he is and why
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: people revered him the way they did. And one of
• 11:30
  Speaker 1: the things that I noticed that Peyton would do when
• 11:33
  Speaker 1: they showed his old tapes and how he was just reared,
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: how his father and his family really ushered in all
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: of what he did and all of how he felt,
• 11:43
  Speaker 1: and all of the things that he started to embody
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: as an athlete, is.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: That he watched the tapes.
• 11:52
  Speaker 1: Peyton spent time after the game was over, and he
• 11:56
  Speaker 1: watched the tapes because he wanted to be the best
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: quarterback he could be. And you don't get to do
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: that by simply saying you want to be the best
• 12:07
  Speaker 1: quarterback or the best whatever or.
• 12:09
  Speaker 2: Whomever you want to be. You have to go out
• 12:12
  Speaker 2: there and do the work.
• 12:12
  Speaker 1: So he went out there and did the work, and
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: there were some weeks that he didn't do good work.
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: But because he was interested in not being perfect but improving, progressing,
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: he started to find his own limitations. He started to
• 12:30
  Speaker 1: find his gaps, and once he started filling those gaps,
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: he started becoming a more formidable opponent to other quarterbacks
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: in the industry. And it was fascinating to watch. And
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: as I look back, it was a fascinating journey for him,
• 12:45
  Speaker 1: but also for his fans and for the city and
• 12:49
  Speaker 1: for everything. I mean, we were able to walk down
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: the path of getting a Super Bowl ring. He was
• 12:57
  Speaker 1: able to give or give Indianapolis with a Super Bowl ring.
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: Absolutely a fascinating story. And we know that Peyton Manning
• 13:09
  Speaker 1: was on top of his game while he was in
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: the game, and he was on top of the game
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: when he left the game. But some of us we
• 13:16
  Speaker 1: want to get to the top quickly. It took him years.
• 13:19
  Speaker 1: It took him practices. He was from a family that
• 13:22
  Speaker 1: embodied this work, and even though he kind of came
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: in with some legacy around him, he wanted to build
• 13:29
  Speaker 1: his own. I mean, it started with his decision not
• 13:33
  Speaker 1: to go to All Miss where his dad went.
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: That was a huge deal. Talk to the people about
• 13:38
  Speaker 2: in all miss about that. They'll tell you.
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: I mean, I saw the documentary. It was ugly, but
• 13:44
  Speaker 1: he had to make his own decisions. And there are
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: decisions that you're gonna make that are not gonna be
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: perfect in the eyes of others.
• 13:50
  Speaker 2: And that's something I had to unpack.
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: When you make a decision, it will be your best decision.
• 13:59
  Speaker 2: And if you're to please.
• 14:00
  Speaker 1: Other people, if Peyton spent time pleasing others, I don't
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: know that he would be the Peyton he is today
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: at the level he got to. But he realized very
• 14:11
  Speaker 1: early on that he had to make a play for
• 14:14
  Speaker 1: his life.
• 14:16
  Speaker 2: And that's what this is all about. That's what the
• 14:18
  Speaker 2: series is all about.
• 14:19
  Speaker 1: It's about understanding and unpacking that when I make a decision,
• 14:26
  Speaker 1: I have to make the decision for what's best for
• 14:28
  Speaker 1: my life, the next best decision. I don't know what
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: your next best decision is, but I'm gonna encourage you
• 14:38
  Speaker 1: to play back your tapes, play back your thoughts, play
• 14:41
  Speaker 1: back your aspirations, your goals, and start taking action, start
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: executing on that, and go through with it, even though
• 14:51
  Speaker 1: it doesn't look like what you thought it should look
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: like or what people think you should make it look like.
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: It's your thing, it's your life. The more you pour
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: into it, the more you execute upon it, the more
• 15:08
  Speaker 1: you get.
• 15:08
  Speaker 2: To study, learn and improve from it.
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: The next best action is up to you. The next
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: best action in my life is up to me. Whether
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: I'm in a milestone season or whatever season I'm in.
• 15:27
  Speaker 2: You got to take the.
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: Action that works for you, not for perfection, not to
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: help other people feel comfortable, not to please others, but
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: to find, formulate, and execute on your life.
• 15:47
  Speaker 2: The next best version of you is just an action away.
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: The next best step is your decision to make today.
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: I want you to become your in rich self, and
• 16:04
  Speaker 1: it's gonna take unpacking beliefs that said that's not good
• 16:09
  Speaker 1: enough and going to a mindset that says that's a
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: good start.
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: Let's work from that.
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: That's what I want for you, That's what I want
• 16:18
  Speaker 1: for me, and we're gonna go get that.
• 16:21
