- 0:29Good morning from the Chicken Coop.
- 0:31So, today I want to talk to you about.
- 0:33How do you know, if you are a specific type of personality?
- 0:39You know, we all talk about these personality test and
- 0:41everybody's like, well, I'm where I am, I on the intagram or
- 0:45what's my disc and blah, blah blah.
- 0:47Well, I want to tell you what's a really quick accurate.
- 0:50Way to know parts of yourself is to think about those emotions of
- 0:54when we talk about who's driving your bus because your primary
- 0:57emotional drivers are really, what's?
- 1:00You most of all. And so I happen to use the bus
- 1:04metaphor because it's the easiest quickest way for me.
- 1:07But I thought this would be a very funny thing to tell you
- 1:09because I always question, you know, have outgrown my certainty
- 1:13girl. Well yesterday I went to Costco
- 1:17and I was not feeling well obviously I have this head thing
- 1:21going on went to Costco and normally it's like one of my
- 1:25most fun trips and I love going in and seeing what they have.
- 1:30And And I always feel great being in there.
- 1:32I don't know why. I know it's silly.
- 1:35But again, my certainty girl loves to be supplied up.
- 1:39So yesterday I go into Costco and they are in our particular
- 1:44Costco, they are changing around a lot of the refrigeration and
- 1:49big cooler. The walk-in coolers now, this
- 1:51has been going on for months and they have been moving the orange
- 1:56juice around, but orange juice is very important to me.
- 2:00So again, my certainty girl, I've had it since I was very
- 2:04little Costco happens to sell a really great organic orange
- 2:08juice. I love it and I go to the place
- 2:11where it has been for the last couple weeks and it's not there
- 2:16and I immediately get like, no. Now I've got to figure out where
- 2:20it is and I realized and I start laughing at myself I'm like what
- 2:25do you care? You're going to walk every
- 2:27single aisle. Anyway you're going to I'm going
- 2:29to walk every Engel Island there because I don't want to miss.
- 2:32If they got a new product, I might do it quickly, but I'm
- 2:35definitely going to walk all the aisles.
- 2:38So here, I am contemplating myself watching myself yet.
- 2:43I can't stop myself from feeling overwhelmed by the fact that I
- 2:47have to seek this out. As I'm going down the around the
- 2:53corner. There's a woman giving out
- 2:56samples because Costco loves to sample and it's For this nuke
- 3:01and kombucha. So I'm like, okay, let me take a
- 3:05sample and try it and I taste it and then immediately My head
- 3:10goes to. Well, how are they keeping this
- 3:12like, okay without being refrigerated?
- 3:15Computed kombucha has to be refrigerated and I start
- 3:18thinking about all of this and I'm like, okay here's my
- 3:22certainty girl, freaking out again.
- 3:24And this takes place the whole time I'm in Costco is about 30
- 3:28minutes and I can tell you That I was in that state, in my
- 3:34certainty, girl freaked out phase for the Whole 30 minutes
- 3:39because I, at one point, I couldn't figure out where my
- 3:42husband had taken off too, and I'm like, okay, that I need to
- 3:45figure out where he is, because I have to figure out if there's
- 3:49anything else that he needs. I'm trying to call him he's not
- 3:52answering his phone of course. So I am in this place where I
- 3:57paused and I say to myself, you know, as much As you do as much
- 4:01as you think, you do as much as you want to shift yourself, and
- 4:06you do shift yourself. When you are not paying
- 4:10attention, the emotions that you are, primarily driven by will
- 4:15show up. And my certainty girl, is
- 4:18someone that I have to challenge and figure out consistently.
- 4:23I love that. I mean, she is one of my best
- 4:27buds. She takes care of everything.
- 4:29She makes sure we have. Everything we need.
- 4:31She's on point when she makes commitment, she keeps them.
- 4:34She is awesome. But she's also a major pain in
- 4:38the butt and I don't want to walk through Costco and get
- 4:42aggravated. I don't want to be frustrated
- 4:45that they moved the orange juice.
- 4:46I want to be like, oh okay, I want to be curious.
- 4:50Okay, where they move it to? Maybe they've got something new
- 4:53and just go and do it. And the reason I'm bringing this
- 4:56up to you guys today is I want you to realize as much as you
- 4:59think you. Do as much as me, who does this
- 5:03for a living all the time, every single day.
- 5:06And as much as I work on myself and study and take classes and
- 5:09write books and record things for you.
- 5:12I still have to do it consistently often and you have
- 5:17to do the same thing. So there's no discouragement
- 5:19with yourself. There's just curiosity.
- 5:22So when I was laughing at myself, finding myself slipping
- 5:25in and out of it, I realized. Well, part of the reason I'm
- 5:28having such a fit with it is because I didn't feel well and I
- 5:32needed to just go home and rest and I gave myself Grace and I
- 5:37stopped and I was like, okay, you know what, I just got to cut
- 5:40myself some slack right now and laugh about it and I started
- 5:43laughing at myself and I could shift out of it and it was no
- 5:46big deal. So don't beat yourself up.
- 5:50Ask better questions. Find a way to be curious about
- 5:53it and recognize your drivers are going to be there and
- 5:57they're going to keep coming at you.
- 5:59So just be patient and handle them and get the information
- 6:04from them that you need and then move forward.
- 6:07All right, my friends. I hope you have a very blessed
- 6:09day and I will see you tomorrow. Bye.
