• 0:23
  chickens. Hey everybody.
• 0:28
  Good morning from the chicken coop.
• 0:30
  Ooh, today we are talking about what is necessary.
• 0:34
  So it's an interesting question, right?
• 0:37
  There are plenty of things that you want to do.
• 0:38
  There are plenty of things that always seemed urgent.
• 0:40
  I mean, I think we're all surrounded by urgent urgent
• 0:43
  things. At least I'm are quoting this as
• 0:45
  I say it because we tend to make them urgent.
• 0:48
  But are they really urgent? I don't know.
• 0:51
  But think about what is necessary.
• 0:53
  Are things really necessary? Is the drama really necessary is
• 0:57
  the anxiety? Really necessary is the rushing
• 1:00
  really? Necessary.
• 1:01
  Is it something that you have ever contemplated before?
• 1:05
  What is really necessary. You don't.
• 1:08
  Sleep is necessary. Water is necessary.
• 1:12
  Having shelter is necessary food shopping necessary, things like
• 1:17
  that are what is necessary in our world but our reactions are
• 1:22
  responses things that are going on around us what things are
• 1:26
  really necessary and what things are not necessary.
• 1:30
  It's an interesting place to take yourself and become curious
• 1:33
  about because we're mostly surrounded by making everything
• 1:37
  urgent. And as soon as you make your
• 1:40
  everything urgent, Your scope becomes muddled and you can't
• 1:45
  even see out of anymore. It's like looking through
• 1:47
  glasses with Vaseline on it. You can't tell everything's
• 1:50
  blurry because everything Sergeant.
• 1:53
  So you know, the things that we decide we're going to deem
• 1:59
  necessary. Have to be taken under
• 2:03
  consideration. And say yes, this is necessary.
• 2:07
  And the things that I focus on that are necessary, I'm going to
• 2:12
  do them in a way that makes me feel fulfilled doing them.
• 2:15
  Instead of making them just be like I got to get this off.
• 2:18
  My to-do list and doing them with a mind of intention and
• 2:23
  being very pragmatic. But thoughtful is an ideal way
• 2:28
  to do those necessary items. When you Deem something.
• 2:33
  As, you know, a necessary item. Oftentimes, we will label it
• 2:39
  like, oh God, it's a pain in the butt or it's a nuisance or it's
• 2:45
  not something I love to do. So the question is removing
• 2:49
  things from being urgent, removing things from getting to
• 2:52
  that place of being you know hyper like just making my
• 2:59
  anxiety, go through the roof and getting down to To okay, once I
• 3:03
  get past that phase, okay? Do I even need to do this, is
• 3:07
  this something that is going to move me further from my goals or
• 3:12
  closer to my goals and I use the word goals, but it can be
• 3:15
  outcomes, it can be intentions, it can be whatever word you
• 3:17
  want, but are things moving, you closer to it or further away
• 3:21
  from it and that helps, you understand, you know, and and
• 3:26
  keeping that pace of necessary versus urgent.
• 3:32
  Also helps keep you in a place of on a peaceful track as
• 3:36
  opposed to a reactive track. I think a lot of times when we
• 3:39
  get urgent, we get so reactive because we have to hurry, hurry,
• 3:42
  hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, hurry, doesn't help us at all.
• 3:47
  Never has never will. So, what's so important?
• 3:50
  Is to remember that in the big scope of things in the being
• 3:55
  like, okay, we're going to go down this road of looking at our
• 3:58
  life and really focusing. Our Tension on being happier,
• 4:05
  when you can contemplate, the necessary items, in a true way
• 4:11
  of being very honest with yourself, as opposed to
• 4:16
  reactive, you're going to notice a total different outcome and
• 4:22
  when you look at the necessary items and you accept them, as
• 4:25
  this is just part of being a human being, like, I was trying
• 4:27
  to explain to my son, you know, there are certain things about
• 4:30
  being a human. And being a valuable part of the
• 4:34
  human race that you just have to take on like self-care like
• 4:37
  brushing your teeth, taking a shower being like, you know,
• 4:41
  doing your studying, being somebody who's trying to better
• 4:44
  themselves. These are all healthy parts of
• 4:46
  things and they are necessary items.
• 4:48
  So if they're necessary, do them in a way that makes you proud of
• 4:52
  doing them. Allow yourself, that Joy of
• 4:55
  taking it on that way, as opposed to taking it on, in a
• 4:57
  way that makes you feel like gosh, here we go again.
• 5:01
  So this Is necessary. It was some people get so sick
• 5:04
  of going food shopping and I think to myself I think it's
• 5:07
  kind of a fun thing to do because you're headed out,
• 5:10
  you're going into the store and you can make it fun because
• 5:14
  you're looking for different things.
• 5:15
  You're looking at different people, you're smiling, you're
• 5:18
  saying hello. There are plenty of ways to make
• 5:21
  it a fun thing to do. Not to mention the fact that we
• 5:24
  live in a country where there is a lot of options for this and to
• 5:29
  me that just makes me smile. Because we don't struggle to
• 5:33
  find food in that way. So just ask yourself, do I want
• 5:38
  to live in a world where everything is urgent?
• 5:42
  Probably not. And the things that are
• 5:44
  necessary. Do I want to do them while I'm
• 5:46
  unhappy or what? I like to try to make them happy
• 5:49
  places for me to go because they are necessary and they are part
• 5:52
  of Being Human. All right?
• 5:54
  My friends. I hope you have a great day.
• 5:56
  A blessed day and I will see you tomorrow.
• 5:58
  Bye.
