WEBVTT 1 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:08.240 this. So for those of you that missed this call, I'm going to do a really quick recap of some 2 00:00:08.240 --> 00:00:15.280 important things. As if you're listening to this in real time, we just finished January. The first 3 00:00:15.280 --> 00:00:24.480 of 12 months is down and we were really talking about if we were happy with it or what we wish 4 00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:32.720 we'd done more or less of. And I love some of the feedback and Julie using her planner and 5 00:00:32.720 --> 00:00:41.360 reminded me of something so important and that is many times we tend to put off 6 00:00:42.320 --> 00:00:49.120 things that feel hard. Maybe they overwhelm our mind. Maybe they just feel like they're 7 00:00:49.120 --> 00:00:54.000 going to take a long time. Maybe we feel inadequate. Maybe they feel overwhelming. 8 00:00:54.000 --> 00:00:58.880 Maybe we don't know where to start. But there's something about it that feels big, that feels 9 00:00:58.880 --> 00:01:07.520 heavy. And so the brain is wired to conserve energy. That's our brain. It's wired to conserve 10 00:01:07.520 --> 00:01:12.880 energy because more than 25% of your body's energy is coming from the brain or being used by the 11 00:01:12.880 --> 00:01:20.080 brain. So in order to do that, we'll tend to put that off. And there's a couple challenges. First 12 00:01:20.080 --> 00:01:28.960 of all, the things that we put off are far heavier on us. They're actually a weight. They weigh down 13 00:01:28.960 --> 00:01:34.480 all of your life and your being and your energy. So the things that are not done are actually a 14 00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:41.760 weight and they're actually heavier than just doing them. And so I was sharing that one of my 15 00:01:41.760 --> 00:01:50.240 early coaches had big signs everywhere. GSDF. Get stuff done fast. Just make that a policy. Get 16 00:01:50.240 --> 00:02:01.840 stuff done fast. Right? Get stuff done fast. And the other aspect of that is that success loves 17 00:02:01.840 --> 00:02:08.720 speed. Success loves speed. It does. And especially speed of implementation. So 18 00:02:09.680 --> 00:02:15.760 tackle the hard things. Do those things first. Tackle the hard things. And so that led to the 19 00:02:15.760 --> 00:02:24.080 conversation then of a couple things of wanting to get done. One is a vision board. And if you 20 00:02:24.080 --> 00:02:28.480 haven't done your vision board yet, and if you don't have it in a place where you're looking at 21 00:02:28.480 --> 00:02:37.040 it every day, and if it is outdated or it doesn't inspire you anymore, or you're not interacting 22 00:02:37.040 --> 00:02:43.040 with it, I encourage you to. What do I mean interacting with it? I've shared with you that 23 00:02:43.040 --> 00:02:51.280 my vision board, I use a cork board. I do not glue pictures on there. That is too stagnant for me. I 24 00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:58.160 want this to be a living, breathing, moving. So I use a large cork board with tacks. And that way, 25 00:02:58.160 --> 00:03:04.000 I can keep moving the pictures around, changing them, deleting them. Like it's always a work in 26 00:03:04.000 --> 00:03:12.880 progress. And then remember some ways that you can do this. You can use the vision board 27 00:03:12.880 --> 00:03:18.240 as a place for gratitude. So you can start looking at all those things. Jesus always thanked 28 00:03:18.240 --> 00:03:23.600 God for things before they came, not after. And so you can look at those things and have a place 29 00:03:23.600 --> 00:03:30.800 of gratitude. Tap into the feeling of gratitude and give thanks for it in advance. You can use 30 00:03:30.800 --> 00:03:37.120 it as a place of prayer. You can use it as a stimulus to your imagination. You can use your 31 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:45.760 affirmations and you can use your declarations. Looking at and expanding because there's a 32 00:03:45.760 --> 00:03:53.120 principle by beholding we are changed or we become like that which we're looking at. Or another way 33 00:03:53.120 --> 00:04:00.560 of looking at it is whatever we focus on expands. So this is a focusing tool. It's an expansive tool 34 00:04:01.200 --> 00:04:09.360 it. We know that our imagination is really powerful. Our God-given image maker. So getting 35 00:04:09.360 --> 00:04:16.959 your vision board done. A couple other things I shared that are really powerful to go with this 36 00:04:17.519 --> 00:04:22.960 is two books. And it's really those of you and my clients that have read it. They're all coming 37 00:04:22.960 --> 00:04:28.800 back to me with rape reviews and it's rocking their world. And that's called Be Your Future Self 38 00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:37.920 Now and Be Your Future Self Now. Ben Benjamin Hardy, same guy that wrote 10 X's easier than 39 00:04:37.920 --> 00:04:46.640 2X. Dan Sullivan, Dr. Benjamin Hardy. So Be Your Future Self Now, really powerful. He's an 40 00:04:46.640 --> 00:04:53.200 organizational psychologist. He's extremely logical, systematic and really focuses on research. 41 00:04:53.200 --> 00:04:59.760 So it's no joke, right? It's when he talks, it's pretty scientific. And yet it's incredibly 42 00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:06.040 inspiring. So be your future self. Now, I paired that with a 43 00:05:06.040 --> 00:05:09.840 book that I just happened to stumble on this week over the 44 00:05:09.840 --> 00:05:14.960 last few days. And it's called plan your year, like a 45 00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:20.600 millionaire plan your year like a millionaire. And it is by 46 00:05:20.640 --> 00:05:27.280 Rachel Rogers. Let's see if I can see my phone. Trying to show 47 00:05:27.280 --> 00:05:31.360 it to you. There you go. Looks like that. Plan your year like 48 00:05:31.360 --> 00:05:38.720 a millionaire. And she is I don't know any better way to say 49 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:44.560 it. She is a badass, black, eight figure earner. Okay, black 50 00:05:44.560 --> 00:05:50.920 female badass. She she's amazing. And she's super 51 00:05:50.920 --> 00:05:56.400 practical. To me, she's really quite inspiring, quite 52 00:05:56.400 --> 00:06:01.920 inspiring. And she's a kind of kick your butt into action kind 53 00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:06.120 of inspiring. Good for me to hear, you know, I'm kicking a 54 00:06:06.120 --> 00:06:08.720 lot of butt, but I need my butt kicked too. And I do have a 55 00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:13.360 coach that kicks my butt pretty well, too. But um, so so this 56 00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:18.360 is, this is a really good listen to go. So if you're reading, be 57 00:06:18.360 --> 00:06:23.520 your future self now perfect for this time of year. Plan your 58 00:06:23.520 --> 00:06:26.480 year like a millionaire, pretty, pretty inspiring. I 59 00:06:26.480 --> 00:06:29.520 encourage easy listen, short listen, there's only like four 60 00:06:29.520 --> 00:06:33.840 sections to it. They're, they're pretty bottom line practical, 61 00:06:33.840 --> 00:06:39.600 like you can apply it and get value from it right now. And I, 62 00:06:39.800 --> 00:06:43.160 it got me thinking, you know, she really talks about how a 63 00:06:43.160 --> 00:06:47.920 millionaire thinks and does things. And of course, I've, you 64 00:06:47.920 --> 00:06:51.320 know, I've lived in that space. So most of the stuff that she's 65 00:06:51.320 --> 00:06:56.560 talking about, I do, I've done, I think like that. But the idea 66 00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.920 of actually teaching it and talking about it more, really 67 00:07:00.920 --> 00:07:06.520 inspired me, really inspired me. So I encourage you guys, I think 68 00:07:06.520 --> 00:07:09.520 I think you'll get a lot from that. So was that everything we 69 00:07:09.520 --> 00:07:11.920 talked about so far, I'm going to stop the recording. But that 70 00:07:11.920 --> 00:07:16.720 gives a recap for all the people and next time you guys be here, 71 00:07:16.760 --> 00:07:20.120 powerful things happen when you show up. That would be another 72 00:07:20.120 --> 00:07:24.560 principle, just show up. Thursday mornings, 9am is when I 73 00:07:24.560 --> 00:07:27.920 make myself available to answer your questions and support you 74 00:07:27.920 --> 00:07:32.800 where you most need support. All right, I'm going to, I'm going 75 00:07:32.800 --> 00:07:37.080 to stop this and then I am going to go back to answering live 76 00:07:37.080 --> 00:07:38.080 questions.
