- 0:37and we're in our fifth year on our
- 0:39fourth day.
- 0:41So really great to be here.
- 0:42Guys, thank you so much for being here.
- 0:44Again, happy, healthy, prosperous, abundant, amazing New Year
- 0:47to all of you wonderful people out there.
- 0:49If this is your first time joining me,
- 0:51I want to say welcome, and of course,
- 0:53I want to say thank you.
- 0:55If you're coming back, I want to say
- 0:57welcome back, and thank you so much for
- 0:59coming back.
- 0:59I really do appreciate people that find value
- 1:02in the content that I produce and share.
- 1:05All right guys, so if you haven't checked
- 1:07out BelieveMeAchieved.com, what are you waiting for?
- 1:09Go check that out as soon as the
- 1:10show is over.
- 1:11You can go to BelieveMeAchieved.com, you can
- 1:14get my short-form content, get my long
- 1:16-form content.
- 1:17It's a great place to go.
- 1:19You can get articles and so much more,
- 1:21but do that after the show.
- 1:22If you guys are thirsty, parched, or a
- 1:25little bit hungry, feel free to go grab,
- 1:27yes, a snack.
- 1:29Grab yourself a snack.
- 1:31I think you will definitely appreciate that.
- 1:33So definitely go ahead and do that, all
- 1:37right?
- 1:37All right guys, I think the most important
- 1:42thing I want to share with you guys
- 1:43again is that we're in 2026, and I
- 1:46made a commitment in 2026.
- 1:49For those of you who don't know, I
- 1:49made a lot of commitments, but one of
- 1:51them is I started my book, which is
- 1:53actually commencing on Monday.
- 1:55I'm not going to tell you the title
- 1:56yet, that's kind of under wraps.
- 2:00So what I'm doing is I'm doing an
- 2:01outline every day, and then I'm writing the
- 2:03other day.
- 2:03So it's going to take me maybe a
- 2:05year, maybe a little bit less.
- 2:06The book's only going to be about 150
- 2:08pages, but I'm doing other stuff too, but
- 2:09at least I have a format for doing
- 2:12this, so I'm really grateful for that, guys.
- 2:14Thank you so much.
- 2:16So without any further ado, guys, let's go
- 2:17ahead and kick this show off, all right,
- 2:19guys?
- 2:20So Sunday nights aren't for beating yourself up.
- 2:24Nope, they're for grounding yourself, learning gently, and
- 2:28stepping into Monday, right?
- 2:30With more grace than guilt.
- 2:33This is the inspirations for your show.
- 2:35It's the daily motivational show that helps you
- 2:38think sharper, feel stronger, and live more deliberately
- 2:44every single day.
- 2:45Now, one of the things I told you
- 2:48I was going to share was one of
- 2:49my goals for 2026.
- 2:51I am no longer going to allow people
- 2:55that are rude or disrespectful in my life.
- 2:57It doesn't happen that often, but if I
- 2:59get those people, I'm no longer going to
- 3:01suck up to them and try to be
- 3:02nice.
- 3:03I'm just going to say the words goodbye,
- 3:06or I'm just going to leave, because I've
- 3:08decided I need to treat myself better.
- 3:10I mean, I treat myself pretty well, but
- 3:11sometimes I found myself trying to be over
- 3:15nice even when somebody's being rude, and there's
- 3:19no need for that.
- 3:20There's no reason for that behavior.
- 3:22So you're here, guys, with myself, John C.
- 3:27Morley, serial entrepreneur, engineer, marketing specialist, video producer,
- 3:32podcast host, coach, graduate student, and yes, of
- 3:36course, a passionate lifelong learner, and someone who
- 3:40knows what it's like to carry a full
- 3:43week and still want to grow from it,
- 3:46not just recover from it.
- 3:47I think that's an important thing, and a
- 3:49lot of people don't necessarily understand what I
- 3:52mean by that, but I'm hoping you will.
- 3:54There's a lot of people who say they're
- 3:55going to do stuff.
- 3:56A lot of people say they're going to
- 3:57help you, but then you know what happens.
- 3:59They get busy.
- 4:00They don't help you.
- 4:00So I don't hold it against them, but
- 4:03I just know that I have to be
- 4:08good to myself.
- 4:09I think that's a very, very important thing
- 4:12to realize.
- 4:14So again, I just want to say welcome,
- 4:17everyone.
- 4:17Thank you so very much for deciding to
- 4:21be here.
- 4:21It means a lot to me that you
- 4:23guys are here.
- 4:25So let's kick this off.
- 4:27Today's episode is called Sunday Reset and Reflect.
- 4:33Yeah, because it's Sunday.
- 4:36We are basically on, ladies and gentlemen.
- 4:40This is series five.
- 4:44It's show number two, and it's episode number
- 4:46two, and together we're going to gently review,
- 4:51release, and reset.
- 4:53So you start the week grounded, not in
- 4:55that guilty feeling.
- 4:57You know what I mean.
- 4:58Number one, guys, a heavy week does not
- 5:02mean a failed week.
- 5:05I think that's important for a lot of
- 5:09people to understand, because sometimes, you know, people
- 5:10are under, they're under a lot of stress
- 5:12and tension, and I get that, right?
- 5:15So if this week felt, I don't know,
- 5:19I'm going to say maybe a little bit
- 5:20heavy for you, it doesn't mean you did
- 5:23anything wrong.
- 5:24It just means you were human in a
- 5:27real demanding world.
- 5:30Let today be the moment you separate weight
- 5:34from worth and choose to see effort, not
- 5:37just outcomes.
- 5:39Number two, pick one thing that helps you
- 5:42this week.
- 5:45Keep it intentionally.
- 5:47That's important, guys.
- 5:49And we keep it intentional, a lot can
- 5:52happen.
- 5:52Now, I had somebody else actually before asked
- 5:55me to do something.
- 5:56Now, you know, normally I'm the John that
- 5:57always says yes, yes, yes, yes, yes.
- 5:59But I'm following my own advice.
- 6:02And I realized what they wanted me to
- 6:04do.
- 6:04And I had the skills, but I said,
- 6:06you know what?
- 6:07Right now, I just don't have the bandwidth
- 6:08for it.
- 6:09My studies are picking up.
- 6:11And I have other things I'm doing.
- 6:12So that's not something I really have the
- 6:16time for.
- 6:17Well, we'll talk later then about it.
- 6:20No, it's not going to change.
- 6:21It's only going to get worse because I'm
- 6:23going to get busier.
- 6:24I think sometimes you have to say no
- 6:26to people.
- 6:26Think of one habit, one mindset or one
- 6:30tiny choice that made things well, even a
- 6:35little easier.
- 6:37Okay?
- 6:40Decide right now that it doesn't happen by
- 6:43accident.
- 6:44Next week, you carry it forward on purpose,
- 6:47don't you?
- 6:48Number three, pick one thing that drains you.
- 6:55Don't pack it for next week.
- 6:58There was something, a task, a person, a
- 7:02pattern that quietly, let's say exhausted you in
- 7:06some way, name it, thank it for the
- 7:08lesson, and make a simple plan to reduce
- 7:11or remove it from your upcoming week.
- 7:13So one thing I did is I protected
- 7:16my energy.
- 7:17Normally, John would have said sure, I'll do
- 7:19that.
- 7:19I'll be happy to do that.
- 7:21But then not realizing that I'm taking from
- 7:23my own cup.
- 7:24So I'm being more mindful of the choices
- 7:27that I make in 2026.
- 7:29People are like, oh, well, you know, we'll
- 7:31talk about it later when you're ready.
- 7:33No, we're not going to talk about later
- 7:34because it's just going to become more busy.
- 7:37And I think that's important to understand.
- 7:39People have to realize they can't just count
- 7:41on you for everything.
- 7:43Number four, rest is a result.
- 7:45And it's a requirement.
- 7:47You don't earn rest by doing enough.
- 7:50You need rest so you can keep doing
- 7:52anything at all.
- 7:54Give yourself permission tonight to see rest as
- 7:58part of the work.
- 8:00Not a reward, but really perfection.
- 8:03All right.
- 8:03Number five, give this upcoming week a title.
- 8:07What did it quietly teach you?
- 8:08If this week were a chapter in your
- 8:10story, what would you call it?
- 8:13So this was an interesting week, right?
- 8:16Because this last week, even though we're starting
- 8:18a new week in our master series, right?
- 8:20We started on Saturday.
- 8:22The last week was a very interesting week
- 8:24because we had the kickoff of a new
- 8:27year, right?
- 8:28December 31st going into January 1st, right?
- 8:312026.
- 8:33I think what I learned this year is
- 8:37that, or this week, I should say, is
- 8:41that I have to stick to my guns.
- 8:42If I want to do something, I have
- 8:45to do it.
- 8:47Other people might try to talk me out
- 8:48of it, but I need to still stick
- 8:50to my guns.
- 8:51That's the most important thing.
- 8:52And I can't feel guilty because I say
- 8:54no to people.
- 8:55That's important.
- 8:56So, um, I think I'm going to call
- 8:59this week, John doesn't feel guilty anymore.
- 9:06I don't.
- 9:08Naming it terms the random days into meaning
- 9:11and helps you see the lesson instead of
- 9:14just the frustration.
- 9:16Because the old John would have been like,
- 9:19Oh, sure.
- 9:20I'll do it.
- 9:21Yeah.
- 9:21What's one more thing on my plate?
- 9:23Heck, why not?
- 9:24And this goes for a lot of things,
- 9:26guys.
- 9:27It's not just about, um, you know, business.
- 9:34Uh, it's about personal things you help people
- 9:36with.
- 9:36It's even about things that I do for
- 9:40charities and other religious organizations.
- 9:43That doesn't say I demean them or I
- 9:45degrade them.
- 9:46It just means that I have to know
- 9:48when to say no.
- 9:50I have to realize that I can't keep
- 9:52giving every moment of my time.
- 9:55Number six, guys.
- 9:57Celebrate one win.
- 9:59Nobody saw.
- 10:00But you think of a moment you could
- 10:02have quit, snapped, or maybe shut down, but
- 10:05you didn't.
- 10:06You honored that invisible victory because the quiet
- 10:10winds build the strongest version of you.
- 10:15Number seven, you're allowed to be proud of
- 10:19survival seasons.
- 10:21Number seven.
- 10:22Some weeks are not about thriving, guys.
- 10:24They're about getting through.
- 10:26Let yourself be proud that you made it,
- 10:31even if it wasn't pretty or Instagram pretty,
- 10:34right?
- 10:35You got through the week, and I think
- 10:37that's an important thing.
- 10:38When we can get through the week and
- 10:39we can understand and we can learn from
- 10:41the week, that's probably the biggest thing.
- 10:44Number eight, replace I should have with next
- 10:48time I will.
- 10:50See, that's another important thing.
- 10:51Don't harp on the fact that you didn't
- 10:53do something.
- 10:53Well, next time I'm going to do this,
- 10:55okay?
- 10:56Um, my example was every time in the
- 10:59past, I would always say yes to people.
- 11:01So I made a decision before the new
- 11:04year that next time when something comes up,
- 11:07I'm going to first see, does it deplete
- 11:11my own personal cup?
- 11:12And if it does, I'm going to say
- 11:14no and not feel guilty about it.
- 11:19Every should have keeps you stuck in yesterday.
- 11:24Shift the language to next time.
- 11:27I will, and instantly turn regret into a
- 11:30plan.
- 11:31There's no need to let it entrap you.
- 11:33Ask number nine, what do I want more
- 11:36of next week?
- 11:38Schedule one tiny action.
- 11:40Instead of trying to redesign your entire life,
- 11:44pick one feeling, calmness, focus, fun, and put
- 11:48a tiny concrete action on your calendar that
- 11:51supports it.
- 11:52So one thing was the book, right?
- 11:54So I put some tiny actions on my
- 11:56calendar to start getting my book going.
- 11:58Another thing is, um, I wanted to get
- 12:01some businesses of different areas that I haven't
- 12:04tapped before.
- 12:05And so I started with some ideas that
- 12:08haven't gotten put on my calendar yet, but
- 12:09they will by tomorrow.
- 12:11And so I think when we could step
- 12:14back and when we can say, wow, look
- 12:18at what we did.
- 12:20That's amazing.
- 12:24We have to show up for ourselves.
- 12:26Even other people don't.
- 12:27And you might say to me, John, but
- 12:28you know, if people don't support you, how
- 12:30can you support yourself?
- 12:31You can support yourself.
- 12:32I'm telling you this right now.
- 12:35Um, you can support yourself because you know
- 12:39that you're worthy.
- 12:40You know that you're a good person.
- 12:42Number 10, you don't owe anyone a highlight
- 12:45reel of your week.
- 12:47Nope.
- 12:47I don't need to tell people why I
- 12:49can't do something.
- 12:51It's my business.
- 12:53Your week doesn't need to look impressive to
- 12:58be valuable.
- 13:00Release the pressure to package your life for
- 13:03others and let yourself simply live it.
- 13:07There's a very interesting concept.
- 13:08Why don't we actually try that?
- 13:10Number 11, your nervous system deserves a Sunday
- 13:13reset.
- 13:15Not just your calendar.
- 13:16It's not just about planning tasks.
- 13:19It's about calming your entire body.
- 13:22Breathe, stretch, walk, or sit in quiet.
- 13:27Let your nervous system know it's safe to
- 13:30slow down.
- 13:32Number 12, guys, forgive yourself for one thing
- 13:36from this week.
- 13:38Maybe what I forgive myself for right now
- 13:42is the fact that I've been wanting to
- 13:44start the book, but I didn't.
- 13:45So unkind to myself, I forgave myself and
- 13:47said, look, next time, this is the time
- 13:50I'm doing something.
- 13:53Um, maybe I forgave myself for some other
- 13:56things.
- 13:57And you feel good about that.
- 13:59Okay.
- 14:00And say them out loud.
- 14:02Okay.
- 14:02You could pick one mistake or a few,
- 14:04one moment, one reaction and offer yourself, well,
- 14:10real forgiveness.
- 14:12Speak it.
- 14:13I forgive myself for, I forgive myself for
- 14:16procrastinating and not starting this book until this
- 14:19coming Monday.
- 14:20And I feel a big weight lifted on
- 14:24my head or mind.
- 14:26I forgive myself for always saying yes to
- 14:30people and depleting my own cup.
- 14:34So that when I need to do something,
- 14:38I've been coming second.
- 14:39By 2026, I'm going to make sure I
- 14:42come first.
- 14:43That doesn't mean I'm going to be selfish.
- 14:44It means that I'm going to take care
- 14:46of myself.
- 14:48That's important to know.
- 14:49Don't burn out.
- 14:52Number 13, you are not your worst moment
- 14:55from the last seven days.
- 14:56Nope.
- 14:57You're not.
- 14:58Maybe you snapped, procrastinated, or shut down like
- 15:02I did with the book.
- 15:04That moment is part of your week.
- 15:06It's not the definition of your identity.
- 15:09I think that becomes hard for some people
- 15:11that, you know, we feel that if we
- 15:13just, because, you know, we didn't accomplish something,
- 15:17that's who we are.
- 15:18It's not who we are.
- 15:20It's just the moment in time.
- 15:23Number 14, write a two-sentence note to
- 15:26your future self about this week's lesson.
- 15:30Grab a notebook or your phone and send
- 15:33a short message to the one person, you,
- 15:38who will forget how strong you were.
- 15:42Capture the lesson while it's fresh.
- 15:46Number 15, let one expectation from others expire
- 15:51tonight.
- 15:53There's at least one expectation someone has of
- 15:56you that no longer fits the season you're
- 15:59in.
- 16:00Let's name one.
- 16:02I think it's, the big one is, oh,
- 16:04John will jump in and do it.
- 16:06He always does and has in the past.
- 16:10Well, John's not going to jump in and
- 16:12just do everything anymore.
- 16:14John's going to be more discerning in the
- 16:20time that he decides to give out.
- 16:25You're allowed, guys, to quietly lay it down
- 16:28and choose what truly is sustainable for you.
- 16:31There's nothing wrong with that.
- 16:33You can close a week without closing your
- 16:36heart.
- 16:37You don't have to shut down emotionally.
- 16:40Nope.
- 16:41To move on, you can release the week
- 16:42and still stay open to connection, joy, and
- 16:46growth.
- 16:47All right.
- 16:48Number 17, grieve what you didn't get done.
- 16:52It's okay.
- 16:53You can grieve it and you can move
- 16:54on next time you'll get it done.
- 16:56Appreciate what you did get it through.
- 16:59Let yourself feel the disappointment of unfinished tasks.
- 17:03Then pivot to gratitude for the storms you
- 17:07did walk through.
- 17:07Both emotions can coexist at the same time.
- 17:11A lot of people think they can't, but
- 17:13they can.
- 17:14Number 18, not every week needs a comeback
- 17:17story.
- 17:18Some just need closure.
- 17:20You don't have to turn every hard week
- 17:22into a dramatic transformation.
- 17:25Nope.
- 17:25Sometimes the most powerful move is simply saying
- 17:28that's enough for now.
- 17:31I'm done.
- 17:33Number 19, ask yourself what worked that I've
- 17:37never given myself credit for.
- 17:40I think that's a big one.
- 17:42I need to give myself credit for more
- 17:43things.
- 17:44Being a podcast host, being in graduate school,
- 17:48being a marketing professional, being a video producer,
- 17:52I need to give myself credit.
- 17:55Scan your week for something you handled well,
- 17:58but you brushed it off.
- 18:02Give that version of you a moment in
- 18:04the spotlight and say, hey you, you really
- 18:07did a great job.
- 18:10Number 20, you're allowed to want an easier
- 18:13week and be grateful for this one.
- 18:15Hope for better does not cancel gratitude for
- 18:19what you survived.
- 18:20You can be thankful and desire gentler days.
- 18:25Nothing wrong with that.
- 18:26One boundary you'll more fiercely starting tomorrow.
- 18:31I think I told you the one.
- 18:33The one is being mindful of the people
- 18:36that try to manipulate me not intentionally, but
- 18:40they try to get to my good side.
- 18:43I guess that part's intentional to get me
- 18:46to do something for them because they know
- 18:50I can.
- 18:51And I said before, just because I can
- 18:53doesn't mean I should.
- 18:55Choose a line you won't cross easily this
- 18:58week.
- 18:59Maybe it's saying no after a certain hour
- 19:02or not checking messages during dinner.
- 19:05One no that I decided to do in
- 19:082026, so I run a few groups and
- 19:10organizations.
- 19:10I decided that I'm no longer going to
- 19:12post this one group fiercely on Facebook.
- 19:16I'm still going to post it on our
- 19:17group page and our website, but I'm not
- 19:19going to go posting on all these other
- 19:21forks because I found number one, it tired
- 19:25me out.
- 19:25And number two, I didn't get people that
- 19:28were appreciating my message.
- 19:30Now this isn't about the show or anything
- 19:31like that.
- 19:32It's about another organization that I run.
- 19:33So I realized that I need to be
- 19:37more careful in discerning about where I put
- 19:40the message out, who I invite to the
- 19:42group.
- 19:44Protect your energy like it matters because it
- 19:47does.
- 19:49You know, no one's going to tell you
- 19:51to protect your energy.
- 19:52They're just going to tell you to keep
- 19:53going and going and going like, you know,
- 19:55the Energizer bunny, right?
- 19:57But the Energizer bunny, when it runs out,
- 20:00you can give it more batteries.
- 20:03When you run out, well, that could either
- 20:06be a health issue or it could be
- 20:08a need for you to just crash and
- 20:10get some rest.
- 20:12We can't just put batteries back in ourselves
- 20:14and start, you know, hitting the drum.
- 20:16It doesn't work like that, right?
- 20:19Number 22, you're not starting over.
- 20:22Monday, you're starting from experience.
- 20:25Next week is not a reset to zero.
- 20:28Nope.
- 20:28You're walking in with more wisdom, more data,
- 20:32and more self-awareness than you had seven
- 20:35days ago.
- 20:37That's pretty cool.
- 20:39Think about ending the with compassion, not a
- 20:43performance review.
- 20:45Tonight is not about grading yourself.
- 20:47It's about choosing kindness over criticism and recognizing
- 20:52that you did the best you could with
- 20:55what you had.
- 20:57And I think that's something in the past
- 20:59that I haven't done a lot.
- 21:00I have not praised myself a lot in
- 21:03the past.
- 21:05And I think I need to do that
- 21:06more.
- 21:06I need to show myself self-compassion.
- 21:12Number 24, let today be a soft landing,
- 21:16not a scramble.
- 21:17Resist the urge to cram everything into Sunday.
- 21:21Night, that is.
- 21:23Land softly.
- 21:24Give your mind and body a gentle glide
- 21:26into the new week.
- 21:28It'll be much easier for you if you're
- 21:31gentler with your body and your mind.
- 21:33Number 25, your identity is not tied to
- 21:37how much you crossed off.
- 21:38Although a lot of people think it is,
- 21:41it is not about that.
- 21:43A short to-do list does not mean
- 21:52a small life.
- 21:55You are more than tasks, metrics, or checkboxes.
- 22:05That's important.
- 22:07Number 26, thank this version of you, the
- 22:10one that you're with right now, for getting
- 22:12you here through this week.
- 22:15Close your eyes for a second and say
- 22:17the words, thank you, to the you who
- 22:22carried every responsibility, feeling, and challenge of this
- 22:26week.
- 22:26Now, I'm going to give you another example.
- 22:28So there's some other organizations that I've worked
- 22:29with.
- 22:30There's been a couple that have been very,
- 22:32how can I say, clicky.
- 22:35And they've been political.
- 22:37And I've also decided if I'm going to
- 22:39get that type of reaction I'm not going
- 22:42to be nasty.
- 22:43But I'm just going to choose to let
- 22:48them move aside.
- 22:50And I'll take a different direction.
- 22:53People that don't show me appreciation, whether it's
- 22:56intentional or not, they're really not people I
- 22:59want in my life.
- 23:00I just got to be honest with you.
- 23:03And there's no need to badger myself or
- 23:05punish myself.
- 23:07Appreciation is fuel.
- 23:09And that fuel empowers me to want to
- 23:11do more.
- 23:13Do you know there was somebody this past
- 23:15few days, I wished them a happy new
- 23:16year.
- 23:18And I was looking back just right now,
- 23:22it was actually on LinkedIn.
- 23:25And I was looking back on my LinkedIn.
- 23:29And I remember somebody saying to me, I
- 23:38think I said to them, wish you a
- 23:39happy, healthy, prosperous, amazing new year, blessed new
- 23:42year.
- 23:42And I got a thank you.
- 23:44Okay, thank you.
- 23:46I did not get happy new year back.
- 23:52I got messaged with something, a random question,
- 23:56asking about one of my skills.
- 24:01And I let them know that I appreciate
- 24:05the opportunity.
- 24:05But right now, that's not something I really
- 24:08want to have the bandwidth for.
- 24:19Does that make sense?
- 24:26I hope so.
- 24:29But I learned that the response I got
- 24:32from that person, and I'm just kind of
- 24:33looking back at it now as I'm talking
- 24:35to you, so I can give you the
- 24:37exact without giving the person's name, because that's
- 24:39not really fair.
- 24:47They asked me to do something.
- 24:48And I said, I appreciate the offer.
- 24:50But I'm gonna say no.
- 24:52I'm swamped with school, the semester and other
- 24:54things.
- 24:54I'm still happy to do x and y
- 24:56and z.
- 24:57But I really just don't have any bandwidth
- 24:59to take another committee to be quite honest,
- 25:01they want to be the committee.
- 25:03Understood, we can talk more when things calm
- 25:05down.
- 25:07Okay.
- 25:11Person then reiterates, this would be a great
- 25:13group for you.
- 25:16Then they asked me to do something else.
- 25:18And then I said to them, still no
- 25:21on the first thing.
- 25:21But the is a possibility.
- 25:24But I don't think things will be coming
- 25:26down to be honest about the other things.
- 25:27I'm sorry.
- 25:28But I don't need to say I'm sorry.
- 25:29But I did say that.
- 25:31I just don't have the bandwidth.
- 25:33And there's no I don't need to apologize.
- 25:35I think I was still apologizing.
- 25:36I don't need to do that.
- 25:37Don't need to apologize.
- 25:39Number 27, set one gentle intention, not 10
- 25:42aggressive demands.
- 25:43Choose a single kind, focus for the week
- 25:47ahead, like move with patience, or protect my
- 25:52peace.
- 25:53And let that guide your choices.
- 25:56Number 28, ask what would make next week
- 25:595% kinder to me.
- 26:02Do that.
- 26:03You don't need a total overhaul.
- 26:05You need a small shift.
- 26:07One tiny kinder choice can change the tone
- 26:10of the entire week.
- 26:12I think that's something that's pretty amazing.
- 26:14All right.
- 26:15We don't need to move buildings.
- 26:17Okay.
- 26:18All we need to do is maybe open
- 26:20a few windows or close a few doors.
- 26:23Get my point?
- 26:25Or maybe hang a picture.
- 26:28Number 29, you did enough for who you
- 26:31were this week.
- 26:33With your energy, your circumstances, and what you
- 26:38went through, you did what you could do.
- 26:41Honor that truth instead of chasing an imaginary
- 26:44perfect version of you.
- 26:47The perfect version does not exist.
- 26:49So let's think about that right now.
- 26:52Okay.
- 26:53Think about that right now.
- 26:56Okay.
- 26:58I hope that that means something to you.
- 27:06Close the week with one deep breath.
- 27:09Number 30.
- 27:11I like to do the one I told
- 27:13you about, which was the, you know, doing
- 27:15the four, the four to six.
- 27:20Inhale for four.
- 27:22Hold for two.
- 27:23Exhale for six.
- 27:26Do it again.
- 27:27Inhale for four.
- 27:29Hold for two.
- 27:31Exhale for six.
- 27:33One more time.
- 27:34Inhale for four.
- 27:36Hold for two.
- 27:38Exhale for six.
- 27:44This says I'm still here, guys.
- 27:46I'm still trying.
- 27:48And right now, take that breath with me
- 27:50as I did.
- 27:51Do it again.
- 27:53In through the nose, as I said, and
- 27:55out through the mouth like I did with
- 27:56the count that I gave you.
- 27:58Feel the pride in simply being here, still
- 28:00willing to grow.
