00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:12.840
All right, so welcome to office hours, welcome to second quarter office hours, I'm excited,

2
00:00:12.840 --> 00:00:14.720
like what a way to start the quarter.

3
00:00:14.720 --> 00:00:21.040
Before I started the recording, I'm just loving that you're choosing to show up.

4
00:00:21.040 --> 00:00:28.160
You are taking some bold actions, and I'm celebrating each and every one of those.

5
00:00:28.160 --> 00:00:32.920
Some of you have gotten meeting rooms, and you're doing live events.

6
00:00:32.920 --> 00:00:38.080
Some of you are doing a launch online, a soft launch.

7
00:00:38.080 --> 00:00:46.160
Some of you are really starting to get clients, doing a lot of calls, just super, super excited

8
00:00:46.160 --> 00:00:50.980
for the growth that I'm seeing and thrilled to come alongside of you.

9
00:00:50.980 --> 00:00:57.080
So office hours is about answering your questions, celebrating your wins, working through your

10
00:00:57.080 --> 00:01:00.460
challenges, it's when I make myself available.

11
00:01:00.460 --> 00:01:06.060
So you can just in the reactions, you can raise your hand, I'll pull you up and one

12
00:01:06.060 --> 00:01:08.300
at a time, we will go through those.

13
00:01:08.300 --> 00:01:12.620
But let's start by inviting the Holy Spirit.

14
00:01:12.620 --> 00:01:16.620
So Father, we just thank you for this time.

15
00:01:16.620 --> 00:01:24.260
We thank you for the gift of this community that you called together.

16
00:01:24.260 --> 00:01:31.300
And you said we are not those who fear, we are not those who draw back in fear.

17
00:01:31.300 --> 00:01:34.000
And you showed us linking arms and going forward.

18
00:01:34.000 --> 00:01:37.540
And I thank you how amazingly you've delivered that.

19
00:01:37.540 --> 00:01:42.860
And so now Holy Spirit, we just ask that you rule and reign in this conversation.

20
00:01:42.860 --> 00:01:50.900
We ask that whatever needs to come forth for each woman to fully and boldly, confidently

21
00:01:51.220 --> 00:01:55.980
step into the fullness of all their goals, dreams and desires that you've placed in their

22
00:01:55.980 --> 00:02:00.780
heart, their God given vision, ask that it come forth with grace and ease.

23
00:02:00.780 --> 00:02:05.780
We ask for supernatural wisdom, discernment, clarity, direction.

24
00:02:05.780 --> 00:02:10.979
And we just give so much thanks in Jesus name, Amen.

25
00:02:10.979 --> 00:02:16.140
Okay, I see Barbara has her hand up first.

26
00:02:16.140 --> 00:02:20.460
So let me spotlight you and bring you up here.

27
00:02:20.460 --> 00:02:23.180
And okay, what's going on, Barbara?

28
00:02:23.180 --> 00:02:25.940
Will you talk a little bit about customer journey?

29
00:02:25.940 --> 00:02:31.220
So if you have a lead magnet, and you're doing a customer journey, how many touches should

30
00:02:31.220 --> 00:02:32.220
they be?

31
00:02:32.220 --> 00:02:34.860
And just kind of talk about that, if you would.

32
00:02:34.860 --> 00:02:38.740
Okay, wonderful, wonderful, wonderful.

33
00:02:38.740 --> 00:02:43.820
You know, touches are everything right now.

34
00:02:43.820 --> 00:02:51.540
And I like to think of the cord of three strands that cannot be broken.

35
00:02:51.540 --> 00:02:56.340
Because people learn differently, they take in information differently.

36
00:02:56.340 --> 00:02:59.060
It's known as their sensory preference.

37
00:02:59.060 --> 00:03:07.220
So not only how many touches, but in what form we want to look at, okay?

38
00:03:07.220 --> 00:03:15.380
So your email is going to be incredibly significant.

39
00:03:15.380 --> 00:03:26.060
And especially, I like an immediate, and I do mean, as immediate as possible.

40
00:03:26.060 --> 00:03:33.220
So if it's set up automated, more and more people are going to bots to do it faster,

41
00:03:33.220 --> 00:03:38.260
because speed of implementation right now is huge.

42
00:03:38.260 --> 00:03:44.660
The faster you respond, the greater their chance of actually buying from you.

43
00:03:44.660 --> 00:03:48.140
It's now really getting documented as a science.

44
00:03:48.140 --> 00:03:54.140
So you want a very quick response in email form.

45
00:03:54.140 --> 00:03:56.180
So I do that.

46
00:03:56.180 --> 00:04:06.820
And then I do at least one more, preferably a set of three emails that kind of come every

47
00:04:06.820 --> 00:04:08.260
couple days.

48
00:04:08.260 --> 00:04:16.660
So over that first 14 days, you've communicated three, four times by email, at least, okay?

49
00:04:16.660 --> 00:04:20.260
And there's a variety of that.

50
00:04:20.380 --> 00:04:25.900
Of course, the first one is like any talk or like anything you do.

51
00:04:25.900 --> 00:04:30.380
First of all, you're welcoming them, you're thanking them, you're reminding them why they're

52
00:04:30.380 --> 00:04:32.860
on your list, right?

53
00:04:32.860 --> 00:04:35.260
And what they can expect.

54
00:04:35.260 --> 00:04:38.820
What are you committed, which is for them?

55
00:04:38.820 --> 00:04:42.020
What are you committed to them experiencing?

56
00:04:42.020 --> 00:04:46.820
So you want to communicate that and tell them what to expect.

57
00:04:46.820 --> 00:04:51.940
Over the next few days, I'm going to be sending you.

58
00:04:51.940 --> 00:04:57.260
And then within those, it's like getting to know someone.

59
00:04:57.260 --> 00:05:00.060
And it's like plugging them into what's available.

60
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:01.280
available.

61
00:05:01.280 --> 00:05:05.280
And so they should not be too long.

62
00:05:05.280 --> 00:05:08.560
They should be very heartfelt.

63
00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:10.080
People don't read a lot.

64
00:05:10.080 --> 00:05:13.400
They skim these days more than they read.

65
00:05:13.400 --> 00:05:18.040
So using bolding so that if they just skim the bold,

66
00:05:18.040 --> 00:05:20.360
they get the gist of it.

67
00:05:20.360 --> 00:05:23.040
Of course, video is huge.

68
00:05:23.040 --> 00:05:27.000
And so if you can throw a video in the email,

69
00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:29.980
the more times they can see your face, your picture,

70
00:05:29.980 --> 00:05:32.620
your video, the more time they're

71
00:05:32.620 --> 00:05:35.300
going to connect with you.

72
00:05:35.300 --> 00:05:39.540
And then from there, I've told all of you

73
00:05:39.540 --> 00:05:42.180
having a weekly newsletter is probably

74
00:05:42.180 --> 00:05:44.760
the single most important thing for consistency

75
00:05:44.760 --> 00:05:47.060
in your business and staying front of mind.

76
00:05:47.060 --> 00:05:49.700
So you could have anywhere from one

77
00:05:49.700 --> 00:05:53.900
to five of these intro kind of boom, boom, boom emails.

78
00:05:53.900 --> 00:05:56.620
And then same time every week after that,

79
00:05:56.620 --> 00:05:59.260
and you let them know to be expecting that,

80
00:05:59.260 --> 00:06:01.180
is that.

81
00:06:01.180 --> 00:06:04.380
So in those first few emails, you're

82
00:06:04.380 --> 00:06:06.580
letting them know what's available.

83
00:06:06.580 --> 00:06:12.180
So a free resource, if you've got Facebook group,

84
00:06:12.180 --> 00:06:15.380
how you want them to be able to connect.

85
00:06:15.380 --> 00:06:20.980
So that's the use of the email.

86
00:06:20.980 --> 00:06:24.020
I would also have a welcome text.

87
00:06:24.020 --> 00:06:28.180
Use text much more sparingly.

88
00:06:28.180 --> 00:06:33.340
Try to think in terms of give, give, give, ask.

89
00:06:33.340 --> 00:06:37.060
And so use that within.

90
00:06:37.060 --> 00:06:40.060
Add them to your social media.

91
00:06:40.060 --> 00:06:46.340
Have a list of warm prospects that have raised their hand,

92
00:06:46.340 --> 00:06:49.740
so that you can really be documenting the follow up.

93
00:06:49.740 --> 00:06:54.980
And so have them tied in with your social media

94
00:06:54.980 --> 00:06:58.100
so they're also hearing from you there.

95
00:06:58.100 --> 00:07:00.140
So the cord of three strands.

96
00:07:00.140 --> 00:07:01.660
Text.

97
00:07:01.660 --> 00:07:04.660
A phone call most effective.

98
00:07:04.660 --> 00:07:08.180
So if what you're driving them to is a phone call,

99
00:07:08.180 --> 00:07:09.660
then that's what would be.

100
00:07:09.660 --> 00:07:14.660
And you could start with a soft PS with your call to action.

101
00:07:14.660 --> 00:07:17.060
And then later, it could move all the way

102
00:07:17.060 --> 00:07:19.260
to what would happen on a phone call

103
00:07:19.260 --> 00:07:21.220
and really push for the phone call.

104
00:07:21.220 --> 00:07:23.460
Or if you're selling a program, same thing.

105
00:07:23.620 --> 00:07:29.300
Start soft in a PS and then get more detailed.

106
00:07:29.300 --> 00:07:32.420
Does that answer your question?

107
00:07:32.420 --> 00:07:32.980
It does.

108
00:07:32.980 --> 00:07:33.900
Thank you very much.

109
00:07:33.900 --> 00:07:34.380
OK.

110
00:07:34.380 --> 00:07:36.460
Absolutely.

111
00:07:36.460 --> 00:07:37.700
All right.

112
00:07:37.700 --> 00:07:42.300
Who else has a question?

113
00:07:46.980 --> 00:07:50.500
I may not be seeing you raising your hands.

114
00:07:50.500 --> 00:07:52.780
So if you can use the reaction, it puts you up.

115
00:07:52.780 --> 00:07:55.740
Or kind of just wave that I see you and notice you.

116
00:07:55.740 --> 00:07:56.460
Oh, my goodness.

117
00:07:56.460 --> 00:07:57.580
I got people waiting room.

118
00:07:57.580 --> 00:07:58.660
I'm not even letting in.

119
00:07:58.660 --> 00:08:00.740
My goodness.

120
00:08:00.740 --> 00:08:02.580
I don't have my assistants here today.

121
00:08:02.580 --> 00:08:03.980
I don't have my team.

122
00:08:03.980 --> 00:08:04.820
So sorry.

123
00:08:04.820 --> 00:08:05.780
I don't have my team.

124
00:08:05.780 --> 00:08:08.380
I left you guys in the waiting room.

125
00:08:08.380 --> 00:08:09.620
I'm so sorry.

126
00:08:09.620 --> 00:08:12.540
You guys catch the beginning of the recording.

127
00:08:12.540 --> 00:08:15.860
I went through how many touches when

128
00:08:15.860 --> 00:08:18.740
they respond to your lead magnet and using

129
00:08:18.740 --> 00:08:20.660
the cord of three strands.

130
00:08:20.660 --> 00:08:21.860
So I'm sorry.

131
00:08:21.860 --> 00:08:23.460
Those of you left in the waiting room,

132
00:08:23.460 --> 00:08:25.060
I don't have my team here today.

133
00:08:25.060 --> 00:08:26.300
OK.

134
00:08:26.300 --> 00:08:27.780
Tracy, let me bring you up.

135
00:08:27.780 --> 00:08:31.860
And you can use your reaction to raise your hand.

136
00:08:31.860 --> 00:08:36.780
And then I see you because it puts you first in my vision.

137
00:08:36.780 --> 00:08:38.860
And so Tracy, go ahead.

138
00:08:38.860 --> 00:08:41.620
What's your question today?

139
00:08:41.620 --> 00:08:47.180
Going back to Tuesday's call and the expectation,

140
00:08:47.180 --> 00:08:49.780
to be completely honest, I'm struggling with that

141
00:08:49.780 --> 00:08:54.060
because I feel like I want so much to live in faith

142
00:08:54.060 --> 00:08:56.780
and to let God's will be my will.

143
00:08:56.780 --> 00:09:00.660
And so it's like whatever he wants, that when it comes to,

144
00:09:00.660 --> 00:09:03.060
and what do I expect from him, I kind of trip up a little bit

145
00:09:03.060 --> 00:09:06.340
because what I expect from him is whatever he wants.

146
00:09:06.340 --> 00:09:08.420
And so to.

147
00:09:08.420 --> 00:09:09.900
That's a very good one.

148
00:09:09.900 --> 00:09:11.900
I love that.

149
00:09:11.900 --> 00:09:16.220
So that's a really good one.

150
00:09:16.220 --> 00:09:20.180
I could spend an hour on that.

151
00:09:20.180 --> 00:09:22.900
I do a teaching, and I should probably pull it up,

152
00:09:22.900 --> 00:09:30.420
probably revisit it, on the types of prayer.

153
00:09:30.420 --> 00:09:40.980
And only one of those seven, eight, nine types of prayer

154
00:09:40.980 --> 00:09:43.020
is the prayer of surrender.

155
00:09:43.060 --> 00:09:46.740
In other words, where you saw Jesus at the cross saying,

156
00:09:46.740 --> 00:09:51.260
not my will, but thy will be done.

157
00:09:51.260 --> 00:09:55.340
You don't see Jesus praying that kind of prayer, or Paul,

158
00:09:55.340 --> 00:09:58.500
or any of the disciples.

159
00:09:58.500 --> 00:10:01.100
So surrender is.

160
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:10.040
Surrender is our heart. Surrender is our posture. Romans chapter 12, you know, offering ourselves

161
00:10:10.040 --> 00:10:22.720
a living sacrifice. So surrender is a posture. But that does not mean not standing on bold

162
00:10:22.720 --> 00:10:34.000
faith on the promises of God. And so you didn't see like feeding the 5,000. Let's just

163
00:10:34.000 --> 00:10:40.320
go through a bunch of examples as quick as I can. Feeding the 5,000, right? So the disciples

164
00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:46.480
come to Jesus and say, send them away. You know, we don't have enough food. They're hungry.

165
00:10:46.480 --> 00:10:53.680
It's late. And Jesus looks at them and says, you feed them. And of course, they're just,

166
00:10:53.680 --> 00:10:58.640
because a God-sized vision is bigger than you can do by yourself. It requires partnership

167
00:10:58.640 --> 00:11:05.800
with God. We're co-heirs, we're co-laboring. And so Jesus puts that stretch on them, like

168
00:11:05.800 --> 00:11:13.200
you feed them. 5,000 men plus women and children, and they get into their logical head and say,

169
00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:20.240
like, I couldn't even begin. A year's worth of wages wouldn't buy the food for all these people.

170
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:26.640
What do you mean me feed them? You see, because they're looking at the lack and they're expecting

171
00:11:27.200 --> 00:11:38.320
Jesus to do for them. But instead, he put the focus on them. And then he models for them.

172
00:11:39.280 --> 00:11:43.840
So he says, what do you have? Which is, I've taught you all, that's always what you start

173
00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:49.280
with. What's in your hand? What do you have? That's the most common question. The widow with

174
00:11:49.280 --> 00:11:57.200
the oil, the widow with the cakes, Moses with the staff. Always start with what's in your hand.

175
00:11:57.200 --> 00:12:02.560
What do you have? Even if it's just your voice, even if it's just your time, even if it's just

176
00:12:02.560 --> 00:12:08.880
prayer, you have stuff to start with. And we're expected to use it, parable of the talents,

177
00:12:09.680 --> 00:12:16.560
and expect a return on our investment. So what do we have? We just got three loaves,

178
00:12:16.560 --> 00:12:22.640
you know, and two fish, right? Okay, let's work with what we have, because God's in the

179
00:12:22.640 --> 00:12:28.720
business of multiplication, but we've got to use what we have. So he begins with thanks,

180
00:12:28.720 --> 00:12:34.160
and he begins with faith and expectation. And he says, I thank you that you always hear me.

181
00:12:34.160 --> 00:12:43.040
There's the expectation right there. Okay, now take it and feed everyone. And

182
00:12:44.240 --> 00:12:51.600
of course, it multiplied in the process, not before. And it always multiplies with overflow.

183
00:12:52.000 --> 00:12:58.000
Now, I experienced that myself physically. I had a time, I've shared with some of you,

184
00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:05.200
when I was leading a retreat, and I was way out near Bodega Bay in California,

185
00:13:05.760 --> 00:13:10.560
where everything shuts down and rolls up and goes to sleep very early. And it's dark, and

186
00:13:10.560 --> 00:13:17.520
everything is asleep. And all the retreat members have arrived, and our vegan chef and food truck

187
00:13:18.480 --> 00:13:24.480
are stranded, broken down, and there's not going to be any food tonight. And I'm leading this

188
00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:31.280
retreat. I don't know how God put the faith and expectation in me, because it came from me. It's

189
00:13:31.280 --> 00:13:38.240
not something I would do in the natural. But I had about this much minestrone soup left over from

190
00:13:38.320 --> 00:13:46.240
lunch, and I poured it in a pan. And I started serving from the pan into bowls to give.

191
00:13:47.760 --> 00:13:52.640
And it multiplied until everybody saw it, and it fed everybody in the room.

192
00:13:54.160 --> 00:14:00.480
So God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. He will multiply your resources,

193
00:14:00.480 --> 00:14:07.680
but it starts with faith and expectation. You have to make a demand on it. So you take God's

194
00:14:07.680 --> 00:14:17.440
promises, and you say, you said, and you make a demand on it. And then while you're in motion,

195
00:14:17.440 --> 00:14:23.360
because you have a heart of surrender, and you constantly ask him, and you're having your morning

196
00:14:23.360 --> 00:14:31.600
routine, which your spiritual routine, which is my time to usually write out in my journal the

197
00:14:31.600 --> 00:14:37.520
questions I have to God, and the things I'm praying, and asking him what he wants me to know.

198
00:14:38.560 --> 00:14:45.520
And then in those answers, I walk that out to the best of my ability. He will show you things in

199
00:14:45.520 --> 00:14:55.920
advance. Here's an example. I forgot I'd even done this. God had me save the domain, Total Soul

200
00:14:55.920 --> 00:15:00.080
Prosperity. That's the name of my upcoming book.

201
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:04.520
saved the domain long before I knew it was going to be the name of my book.

202
00:15:04.720 --> 00:15:06.840
And it's going to the publisher today.

203
00:15:07.040 --> 00:15:08.840
And I went and checked my domains.

204
00:15:09.040 --> 00:15:11.760
And sure enough, I had saved that years ago.

205
00:15:11.960 --> 00:15:14.440
You see, God is going ahead of you.

206
00:15:14.640 --> 00:15:16.200
He's preparing you.

207
00:15:16.400 --> 00:15:19.240
And it's your constant obedience.

208
00:15:19.440 --> 00:15:21.720
It's pinpoint obedience.

209
00:15:21.920 --> 00:15:24.000
Who do you want me to talk to today?

210
00:15:24.200 --> 00:15:26.840
What do you how do you want me to show up today?

211
00:15:27.040 --> 00:15:28.320
What do you want me to do?

212
00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:31.240
You're in constant submission.

213
00:15:31.440 --> 00:15:36.200
But you expect a return on investment,

214
00:15:36.400 --> 00:15:41.600
just like when you plant seeds in your garden, you expect plants.

215
00:15:41.800 --> 00:15:46.320
There's no way that you would plant seeds and not expect plants.

216
00:15:46.520 --> 00:15:49.080
We see in nature.

217
00:15:49.280 --> 00:15:54.400
What we also need to see in the rest of our business, does that make sense?

218
00:15:54.600 --> 00:15:57.800
And does that answer your question or did I get way off the mark?

219
00:15:58.040 --> 00:15:59.640
No. Perfect. Thank you.

220
00:15:59.840 --> 00:16:00.880
OK, awesome.

221
00:16:01.080 --> 00:16:02.600
Thank you for asking that question.

222
00:16:02.800 --> 00:16:05.200
And I love Tuesday.

223
00:16:05.400 --> 00:16:09.600
We started with integrating.

224
00:16:09.800 --> 00:16:15.240
Faith into our business, and I'd like to keep that conversation going,

225
00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:23.320
and so always bring yourself because the formula says, let your prayers and

226
00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:27.720
petitions be made known to God with Thanksgiving.

227
00:16:27.920 --> 00:16:31.680
Right. And so always with Thanksgiving means

228
00:16:31.880 --> 00:16:36.760
that we go over the winds and what we focus on expands.

229
00:16:36.960 --> 00:16:43.360
So looking at we're starting second quarter, looking at first quarter.

230
00:16:43.560 --> 00:16:46.560
What major things happened in first

231
00:16:46.760 --> 00:16:51.800
quarter where you did step out, where you did activate your faith?

232
00:16:51.920 --> 00:16:57.200
What were your wins first quarter when it comes to faith?

233
00:16:57.400 --> 00:17:05.520
What what things did you partner with God and do that were scary that but you did it.

234
00:17:05.720 --> 00:17:08.680
You showed up live, you did a launch.

235
00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:12.640
I mean, each one of you are doing some really big things.

236
00:17:12.839 --> 00:17:14.119
Look at those things.

237
00:17:14.319 --> 00:17:18.720
How did you integrate your faith in quarter one?

238
00:17:18.920 --> 00:17:23.520
And then how are you going to really

239
00:17:23.720 --> 00:17:28.240
multiply that, use it, build it?

240
00:17:28.440 --> 00:17:30.480
In this quarter.

241
00:17:30.680 --> 00:17:37.040
And where do you need?

242
00:17:37.240 --> 00:17:39.040
Courage.

243
00:17:39.720 --> 00:17:48.240
Or discipline or boldness or patience or support.

244
00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:53.360
Or help what what do you need to fully

245
00:17:53.560 --> 00:17:55.160
birth?

246
00:17:55.360 --> 00:18:01.160
What God's putting in your heart in this quarter to keep it moving,

247
00:18:01.360 --> 00:18:06.040
where are you taking what you built in quarter one and integrated your faith in

248
00:18:06.240 --> 00:18:11.080
quarter one, where are you taking that?

249
00:18:11.280 --> 00:18:16.880
How are you building on that in quarter two?

250
00:18:17.560 --> 00:18:21.280
So ask me questions about integrating faith.

251
00:18:21.480 --> 00:18:24.320
I mean, ask me questions about anything.

252
00:18:24.520 --> 00:18:26.400
If I can help, I will.

253
00:18:26.600 --> 00:18:31.320
But it takes reflection of what worked really well.

254
00:18:31.520 --> 00:18:32.600
What were my wins?

255
00:18:32.800 --> 00:18:34.840
What didn't work so well?

256
00:18:35.040 --> 00:18:36.080
What were my challenges?

257
00:18:36.280 --> 00:18:37.360
Where did I chicken out?

258
00:18:37.560 --> 00:18:43.360
Where did I not honor my word and do what I said I would say I would do?

259
00:18:43.960 --> 00:18:47.520
Where where do I need more courage?

260
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:51.600
Where did I where did I chicken out one way or another, consciously or

261
00:18:51.800 --> 00:18:56.760
unconsciously, where do I need to be more bold?

262
00:18:59.680 --> 00:19:06.800
What areas what remember the success formula, mindset, skill set, action.

263
00:19:07.000 --> 00:19:09.560
Where does my mindset still need to be renewed?

264
00:19:09.760 --> 00:19:12.080
Where's doubt creeping in?

265
00:19:12.280 --> 00:19:16.440
Where's where's fear, fear of lack?

266
00:19:16.640 --> 00:19:18.600
Creeping in.

267
00:19:19.640 --> 00:19:24.720
Mindset and then skill set, what do I need to be?

268
00:19:24.920 --> 00:19:28.480
Improving and growing in my skill set.

269
00:19:31.160 --> 00:19:35.760
To really birth this vision, carry it out to completion.

270
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:41.240
And where am I carving out the time

271
00:19:41.440 --> 00:19:46.920
both to renew my mind daily and to grow my skills?

272
00:19:48.320 --> 00:19:53.200
There's a lot of pockets of time, and this is why I've had many of you do

273
00:19:53.400 --> 00:19:59.800
the time study where every half an hour for the day, you write down what you did

274
00:19:59.800 --> 00:20:00.000
that.

275
00:20:00.000 --> 00:20:01.760
half an hour.

276
00:20:01.760 --> 00:20:06.120
And then looking at it, what was out of alignment?

277
00:20:06.120 --> 00:20:12.880
What was wasted, unproductive, unfruitful?

278
00:20:12.880 --> 00:20:15.480
What could you change?

279
00:20:15.480 --> 00:20:19.040
Make that change, and then go do the time study again.

280
00:20:19.040 --> 00:20:23.180
So I like the verse about redeeming the time.

281
00:20:23.180 --> 00:20:26.800
There's a lot of time that can be redeemed.

282
00:20:26.800 --> 00:20:31.080
So an example, driving time.

283
00:20:31.080 --> 00:20:35.080
I was taught at a young age to make your car your rolling

284
00:20:35.080 --> 00:20:36.680
university.

285
00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:39.680
That has served me well.

286
00:20:39.680 --> 00:20:44.440
My drives, I learn a lot during my drives.

287
00:20:44.440 --> 00:20:48.080
I'm listening to an audio book, a podcast,

288
00:20:48.080 --> 00:20:50.880
or typically, a Spanish lesson.

289
00:20:53.560 --> 00:20:56.320
Redeeming the time.

290
00:20:56.320 --> 00:21:00.560
A lot of times, after talking all day, coaching,

291
00:21:00.560 --> 00:21:03.880
doing all that, writing, sometimes I just want to sit

292
00:21:03.880 --> 00:21:05.800
and I want to chill.

293
00:21:05.800 --> 00:21:09.240
And yet, I'm a person that does not

294
00:21:09.240 --> 00:21:10.920
like to just sit and watch TV.

295
00:21:10.920 --> 00:21:15.720
I don't have a TV, but Netflix, or Prime, or anything.

296
00:21:15.720 --> 00:21:17.320
Careful what I watch.

297
00:21:17.320 --> 00:21:21.920
And so a couple of years ago, redeeming that time,

298
00:21:21.920 --> 00:21:24.400
I only watch programs in Spanish.

299
00:21:24.400 --> 00:21:27.800
So between redeeming the time in my drive

300
00:21:27.800 --> 00:21:30.880
and redeeming the time of watching maybe an hour

301
00:21:30.880 --> 00:21:36.360
at night TV, I'm now speaking pretty fluent Spanish.

302
00:21:36.360 --> 00:21:38.480
You see, it's not the big things.

303
00:21:38.480 --> 00:21:40.640
It's the little things we do over and over and over

304
00:21:40.640 --> 00:21:41.880
consistently.

305
00:21:41.880 --> 00:21:43.480
A year goes by like a minute.

306
00:21:43.480 --> 00:21:46.880
Two years goes by like two minutes.

307
00:21:46.880 --> 00:21:50.120
By doing something consistently, this

308
00:21:50.120 --> 00:21:52.280
is the concept of atomic habits.

309
00:21:52.280 --> 00:21:56.560
If you've read Atomic Habits, it's creating these habits.

310
00:21:56.560 --> 00:22:02.320
Another example, you guys have access

311
00:22:02.320 --> 00:22:05.720
to a lot of stuff in the Prosper Leader membership.

312
00:22:05.720 --> 00:22:08.200
Go through the series on partnering with God.

313
00:22:08.200 --> 00:22:09.960
There's five, six-day series in there.

314
00:22:09.960 --> 00:22:13.880
Go through the 90-day series of Manifest, Love, Health,

315
00:22:13.880 --> 00:22:14.400
and Prosper.

316
00:22:14.400 --> 00:22:16.840
Go through the health series.

317
00:22:16.840 --> 00:22:18.560
Go through the God, money, and me.

318
00:22:18.560 --> 00:22:20.400
Well, how do you do that?

319
00:22:20.440 --> 00:22:22.400
Well, I'm writing my book right now.

320
00:22:22.400 --> 00:22:24.720
It goes to the publisher at the end of this month.

321
00:22:24.720 --> 00:22:28.680
And one of the series that I wanted to listen to

322
00:22:28.680 --> 00:22:31.040
that I couldn't get to, OK, I'm going

323
00:22:31.040 --> 00:22:33.120
to have that playing while I'm doing my makeup

324
00:22:33.120 --> 00:22:34.840
and my hair in the morning.

325
00:22:34.840 --> 00:22:37.760
Well, wow, I was able to get through like three units

326
00:22:37.760 --> 00:22:42.920
this morning as I was just doing stuff, getting ready.

327
00:22:42.920 --> 00:22:45.760
You see, that's what I mean about redeeming the time.

328
00:22:45.760 --> 00:22:49.400
And all of that is integrating faith into our business.

329
00:22:49.400 --> 00:22:50.240
Does that make sense?

330
00:22:52.840 --> 00:22:58.440
So look at those pockets of time that you're not doing anything.

331
00:22:58.440 --> 00:23:00.160
Like while you're cleaning the kitchen,

332
00:23:00.160 --> 00:23:02.280
what are you listening to or cooking?

333
00:23:02.280 --> 00:23:05.000
While you're doing your makeup, while you're driving,

334
00:23:05.000 --> 00:23:07.240
lots of opportunities to renew your mind,

335
00:23:07.240 --> 00:23:09.000
to grow your skill set.

336
00:23:09.000 --> 00:23:10.640
And then you carve out the pockets

337
00:23:10.640 --> 00:23:14.280
of time of specifically what actions when.

338
00:23:14.280 --> 00:23:16.520
OK, who else has got a question?

339
00:23:16.520 --> 00:23:17.640
I'm talking too much.

340
00:23:17.640 --> 00:23:18.480
This is your time.

341
00:23:22.800 --> 00:23:25.400
Just hit the reaction button on the bottom

342
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:27.920
there and raise your hand.

343
00:23:27.920 --> 00:23:30.840
Little raise your hand button.

344
00:23:30.840 --> 00:23:32.320
Where are you feeling stuck?

345
00:23:32.320 --> 00:23:33.800
What questions do you have?

346
00:23:36.960 --> 00:23:38.440
What steps are you taking?

347
00:23:38.440 --> 00:23:42.080
What bold moves are you taking to build on the bold moves

348
00:23:42.080 --> 00:23:43.040
from quarter one?

349
00:23:43.040 --> 00:23:45.360
Or if you didn't take any bold moves in quarter one,

350
00:23:45.360 --> 00:23:47.520
what bold moves are you going to do in quarter two?

351
00:23:47.520 --> 00:23:49.200
This is the first half of the year.

352
00:23:49.200 --> 00:23:51.920
OK, Karen, I think you're raising your hand, right?

353
00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:53.360
Yeah, I'm fixing my hair.

354
00:23:53.360 --> 00:23:54.440
Yeah, no, thanks.

355
00:23:54.440 --> 00:23:56.360
You're fixing your hair and raising your hand?

356
00:23:56.360 --> 00:23:57.680
Yeah?

357
00:23:57.680 --> 00:23:59.120
Yeah, multi-tasker.

358
00:23:59.120 --> 00:23:59.920
I wanted to check.

359
00:23:59.920 --> 00:24:02.400
I wanted to check on that.

360
00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:03.440
OK.

361
00:24:03.440 --> 00:24:07.240
The planner really helps because my thing is time management.

362
00:24:07.240 --> 00:24:10.240
And I told you I had to wait because I'm so type A.

363
00:24:10.240 --> 00:24:12.160
I have to wait for the beginning of the month.

364
00:24:12.160 --> 00:24:13.480
So I just started it.

365
00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:15.320
And it really helps, the 20 minutes,

366
00:24:15.320 --> 00:24:20.840
because that really, I can do things that I want to put off

367
00:24:20.840 --> 00:24:24.240
or I'm a little afraid, like contacting the VA

368
00:24:24.240 --> 00:24:25.240
or this or that.

369
00:24:25.240 --> 00:24:27.240
And I'm like, let me devote 20 minutes.

370
00:24:27.240 --> 00:24:29.120
And I can do 20 minutes.

371
00:24:29.120 --> 00:24:30.800
And that's really working.

372
00:24:30.800 --> 00:24:34.520
So my whole thing is just getting into action more

373
00:24:34.520 --> 00:24:37.560
of the things that I was setting the foundation

374
00:24:37.560 --> 00:24:39.240
for in the first quarter.

375
00:24:39.240 --> 00:24:43.880
So now it's like, actually, in AA, we call it in the steps,

376
00:24:43.880 --> 00:24:47.320
you set the foundation in steps one through three.

377
00:24:47.320 --> 00:24:48.560
And the rest is action.

378
00:24:48.560 --> 00:24:49.720
Now into action.

379
00:24:49.720 --> 00:24:50.720
So that's where I'm at.

380
00:24:50.720 --> 00:24:51.280
Yeah.

381
00:24:51.280 --> 00:24:51.840
Same.

382
00:24:51.840 --> 00:24:52.800
So good.

383
00:24:52.800 --> 00:24:53.800
I love.

384
00:24:53.800 --> 00:24:57.000
Yeah, I mean, the Prosper Daily Planner, I still use it.

385
00:24:57.000 --> 00:24:58.800
I've used it for decades.

386
00:24:58.800 --> 00:25:01.640
All my clients that use it.

387
00:25:00.000 --> 00:25:01.840
Use it every day, get results.

388
00:25:01.840 --> 00:25:03.080
The ones who don't, don't.

389
00:25:03.080 --> 00:25:08.360
I mean, it's just everything there to organize yourself.

390
00:25:08.360 --> 00:25:12.320
And in this year's one, if you've

391
00:25:12.320 --> 00:25:17.240
got the one that's kind of the reddish color,

392
00:25:17.240 --> 00:25:21.280
I added some things to look at on the bottom

393
00:25:21.280 --> 00:25:26.320
to really be tracking, because that which we focus on expands.

394
00:25:26.320 --> 00:25:29.360
And so it allows you to track the number of calls,

395
00:25:29.360 --> 00:25:32.720
the number of leads, looking at your income,

396
00:25:32.720 --> 00:25:35.200
looking at your expenses.

397
00:25:35.200 --> 00:25:38.360
These are things you've got to mind your business.

398
00:25:38.360 --> 00:25:40.480
You've got to mind your P's and Q's, right?

399
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:44.600
And so too many, it's just random.

400
00:25:44.600 --> 00:25:46.200
You're not treating it as a business.

401
00:25:46.200 --> 00:25:47.800
You're treating it as a hobby.

402
00:25:47.800 --> 00:25:55.320
So of course, each of them feed the other, right?

403
00:25:55.320 --> 00:25:58.800
If you're not doing any calls, you're not having any sales.

404
00:25:58.800 --> 00:26:00.920
And if you're not doing any calls,

405
00:26:00.920 --> 00:26:03.960
it's probably because you don't have any leads, right?

406
00:26:03.960 --> 00:26:06.720
And if you don't have, so each of those things

407
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:08.840
are so important.

408
00:26:08.840 --> 00:26:11.840
And then breaking the important things

409
00:26:11.840 --> 00:26:14.360
that you do into 20-minute chunks.

410
00:26:14.360 --> 00:26:17.640
Now, there are some things that I just

411
00:26:17.640 --> 00:26:21.840
draw a line through all three of the 20 minutes,

412
00:26:21.840 --> 00:26:24.000
meaning I use a full hour.

413
00:26:24.000 --> 00:26:28.320
If you're in the flow writing, like if I'm writing on my book

414
00:26:28.320 --> 00:26:31.280
or if I'm seeing a client, it's typically

415
00:26:31.280 --> 00:26:32.840
50 minutes or an hour.

416
00:26:32.840 --> 00:26:36.120
So in that case, I put the name of the client or book

417
00:26:36.120 --> 00:26:41.000
and I just draw a line through all three of the 20 minutes.

418
00:26:41.000 --> 00:26:44.280
But then by that hour, get up and move.

419
00:26:44.280 --> 00:26:48.680
They say these days, sitting is even worse than smoking for us.

420
00:26:48.680 --> 00:26:51.240
If you need to set an alarm, whatever you need to do,

421
00:26:51.240 --> 00:26:52.240
get up.

422
00:26:52.240 --> 00:26:57.080
This is another example of redeeming the time,

423
00:26:57.080 --> 00:26:58.520
redeeming the time.

424
00:26:58.520 --> 00:27:05.960
And that is to exercise throughout the day.

425
00:27:05.960 --> 00:27:12.240
We want these big hours at the gym and all of that.

426
00:27:12.240 --> 00:27:15.040
If I told you guys, you'll crack up some of the stuff I do,

427
00:27:15.040 --> 00:27:17.120
but I'm always transparent with you, right?

428
00:27:17.120 --> 00:27:21.400
So when I'm talking about redeeming the time,

429
00:27:21.400 --> 00:27:26.520
when I turn on the shower, it takes a minute

430
00:27:26.520 --> 00:27:28.000
for the water to get hot.

431
00:27:28.000 --> 00:27:29.200
It takes a couple of minutes.

432
00:27:29.200 --> 00:27:30.760
I'm running the water.

433
00:27:30.760 --> 00:27:31.520
I don't like that.

434
00:27:31.520 --> 00:27:33.480
It kind of wastes water, but it is what it is.

435
00:27:33.480 --> 00:27:35.560
I'm not jumping in a cold shower.

436
00:27:35.560 --> 00:27:39.200
So while that water is heating, guess what I do?

437
00:27:39.200 --> 00:27:41.880
Right there standing by the sink,

438
00:27:41.880 --> 00:27:45.560
I do a bunch of squats, activating the largest

439
00:27:45.560 --> 00:27:48.520
muscles in the body.

440
00:27:48.520 --> 00:27:50.160
Right there.

441
00:27:50.160 --> 00:27:52.560
Took two, three minutes, and I did a whole bunch of squats,

442
00:27:52.560 --> 00:27:56.040
and I'm getting stronger and stronger and stronger.

443
00:27:56.040 --> 00:27:59.720
Takes minutes, but huge change, right?

444
00:27:59.720 --> 00:28:02.920
Sometimes I'll do squats, and I'll do push-ups onto the sink.

445
00:28:07.400 --> 00:28:10.320
I take breaks between clients.

446
00:28:10.320 --> 00:28:12.600
Get up, go get a drink of water.

447
00:28:12.600 --> 00:28:15.160
Or between writing, get up and get a drink of water.

448
00:28:15.160 --> 00:28:17.480
I always have all my fluids next to me here,

449
00:28:17.480 --> 00:28:20.760
so I'm drinking all day.

450
00:28:20.760 --> 00:28:24.720
Not that kind, Karen, but water and nutritional supplements

451
00:28:24.720 --> 00:28:27.120
when I say I'm drinking all day.

452
00:28:27.120 --> 00:28:28.880
And it sounded funny.

453
00:28:28.880 --> 00:28:35.640
And so I'll get up, and actually, I'll

454
00:28:35.640 --> 00:28:38.200
do five or 10 minutes of my cardio.

455
00:28:38.200 --> 00:28:38.960
I'll dance.

456
00:28:38.960 --> 00:28:41.800
I'll turn on music, and I'll go practice my salsa dancing.

457
00:28:41.800 --> 00:28:44.000
And then I come back, and I'm laser focused.

458
00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:46.720
So do you see how this could make such a difference?

459
00:28:46.760 --> 00:28:48.560
Obviously, once a day, at least, I

460
00:28:48.560 --> 00:28:51.200
go take my dog for a walk in between.

461
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:56.280
So I'm building learning Spanish in little tiny increments,

462
00:28:56.280 --> 00:29:00.640
driving here, driving there, and watching at night.

463
00:29:00.640 --> 00:29:03.320
I'm building exercise, little tiny increments,

464
00:29:03.320 --> 00:29:05.680
waiting for the water to warm up.

465
00:29:05.680 --> 00:29:09.720
I'm growing my skill set and mindset,

466
00:29:09.720 --> 00:29:13.760
listening to things while I'm doing my makeup,

467
00:29:13.760 --> 00:29:15.200
while I'm cleaning the kitchen.

468
00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:19.000
Do you guys see how we can redeem the time

469
00:29:19.000 --> 00:29:22.840
to truly focus on what matters?

470
00:29:22.840 --> 00:29:25.520
Anybody else have some ideas or success stories

471
00:29:25.520 --> 00:29:26.200
that you're doing?

472
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:27.440
I'm giving you some of mine.

473
00:29:33.200 --> 00:29:35.240
I'm looking at your chat here, too.

474
00:29:35.240 --> 00:29:39.280
I do a, I call it years ago, Sonicare Shuffle.

475
00:29:39.280 --> 00:29:41.600
So my toothbrush is 2 and 1⁄2 minutes.

476
00:29:42.360 --> 00:29:48.640
I walk or walk in place or march or do the Sonicare Shuffle.

477
00:29:48.640 --> 00:29:49.480
I love that.

478
00:29:49.480 --> 00:29:50.840
See?

479
00:29:50.840 --> 00:29:51.680
There it is.

480
00:29:51.680 --> 00:29:53.880
You're getting steps in while you're doing something.

481
00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:55.120
Or squats or whatever.

482
00:29:55.120 --> 00:29:57.480
But my little three-year-old granddaughter,

483
00:29:57.480 --> 00:30:01.440
now, when she's brushing her teeth, we're more.

484
00:30:00.000 --> 00:30:02.320
marching up and down the hall while we're brushing our teeth.

485
00:30:02.360 --> 00:30:05.360
I love that. Wish I'd have learned it at three years old.

486
00:30:05.400 --> 00:30:10.160
Right? I love that incorporating movement. Movement is so

487
00:30:10.160 --> 00:30:14.160
important, right? We've talked in this series that I've done on

488
00:30:14.160 --> 00:30:18.480
flow, oxygen flow, blood flow, right? With flow is so

489
00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:23.640
important. Movement is getting all those flows activated and

490
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:26.560
movement even moves trauma out, right? I mean, I've got

491
00:30:26.560 --> 00:30:30.640
deliberate movement, I have a Pilates class once a week, I've

492
00:30:30.640 --> 00:30:33.680
got dance class a couple times a week, you know, I've got

493
00:30:33.680 --> 00:30:37.040
deliberate where I'm actually going to things. And that's

494
00:30:37.040 --> 00:30:40.640
another thing is, you know, being deliberate, you're not a

495
00:30:40.640 --> 00:30:45.560
slave, you're not slave driving, what sparks joy, what sparks

496
00:30:45.560 --> 00:30:50.040
joy is that built into your calendar, because a life with

497
00:30:50.040 --> 00:30:54.840
no joy is going to fizzle out, you're going to burn out. So

498
00:30:54.840 --> 00:30:58.800
what sparks joy, you know, get out there and play tennis. For

499
00:30:58.800 --> 00:31:01.800
me, it's get out there and salsa dance, take salsa dance

500
00:31:01.800 --> 00:31:05.520
lessons. I'll salsa dance for a few hours. It's great cardio,

501
00:31:05.520 --> 00:31:09.720
but I have a smile on my face the entire time. I mean, it's

502
00:31:09.720 --> 00:31:14.920
just, it just sparks joy for me. What is that for you? And are

503
00:31:14.920 --> 00:31:19.680
you allowing yourself to have that? All of that is part of

504
00:31:19.680 --> 00:31:23.280
integrating faith in your business, by the way. It all

505
00:31:23.280 --> 00:31:28.200
fits. It's that holistic approach. holistic, loving your

506
00:31:28.200 --> 00:31:31.440
body, loving, loving your spirit, loving your soul,

507
00:31:31.720 --> 00:31:38.760
loving your mind, right? It all fits. Okay, who else?

508
00:31:39.800 --> 00:31:45.640
Brenda, I was gonna say, I used a lot of listening with my

509
00:31:45.640 --> 00:31:49.280
headset, I got a little when the little iPods used to exist, you

510
00:31:49.280 --> 00:31:52.040
know, those back in the beginning, that was amazing for

511
00:31:52.040 --> 00:31:55.360
me, because I had kids, but I was always listening to

512
00:31:55.360 --> 00:32:00.600
something. So I grew myself a lot. Yeah, just listening. And,

513
00:32:00.800 --> 00:32:03.680
and initially, it was like, well, I'm not absorbing it. I'm

514
00:32:03.680 --> 00:32:07.320
not keeping it. But surprisingly, when you continuously

515
00:32:07.320 --> 00:32:12.040
do that, it sticks, eventually, the things that you're supposed

516
00:32:12.040 --> 00:32:16.360
to get that Holy Spirit wants to put into your focus, they stick

517
00:32:16.360 --> 00:32:20.640
in your heart. And so, for me, that has been huge. I still all

518
00:32:20.640 --> 00:32:23.680
the time, before I go out to watch the dog, I'm like, okay,

519
00:32:23.720 --> 00:32:26.680
walk the dog, Lord, what is it that I need to hear from you

520
00:32:26.680 --> 00:32:30.360
today? What? And I go look, and I just allow a podcast or

521
00:32:30.360 --> 00:32:33.600
something to come to me. And it doesn't matter, I've gotten over

522
00:32:33.600 --> 00:32:37.200
that I always like to complete things. But I've gotten over

523
00:32:37.200 --> 00:32:40.360
that I need to listen to the whole thing. Yeah. Sometimes

524
00:32:40.360 --> 00:32:45.240
it's just a little bit. Yeah, Lord wants to spark in me that I

525
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:49.040
need for my next step. And so that's been a powerful thing. I

526
00:32:49.040 --> 00:32:52.280
mean, even when I'm cooking dinners, I'm always listening. I

527
00:32:52.280 --> 00:32:54.840
mean, that's the way I've gotten through a lot of this stuff in

528
00:32:55.080 --> 00:32:58.760
in the prosper membership. Yes. And again, I don't like my

529
00:32:58.760 --> 00:33:02.240
natural self doesn't like that I can't take notes, I can't write

530
00:33:02.240 --> 00:33:05.800
it down. But that's my logical brain. And I know that a lot of

531
00:33:05.800 --> 00:33:10.760
it I'm absorbing unconsciously. And I think that's part of the

532
00:33:10.760 --> 00:33:16.120
faith process is leave that what we expose ourself to is going to

533
00:33:16.120 --> 00:33:20.080
come into us because we know I know, when I do that in the

534
00:33:20.080 --> 00:33:23.320
negative stuff, like I've also like you, like, I've stopped a

535
00:33:23.320 --> 00:33:26.920
lot of things that used to impact me unconsciously. So I

536
00:33:26.920 --> 00:33:30.640
have to believe that, yeah, if I expose myself to that is

537
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:34.440
healthy, and uplifting will also impact me in that same way.

538
00:33:34.920 --> 00:33:38.280
I just love that. I love that you shared that. And I was

539
00:33:38.280 --> 00:33:42.440
reflecting on that this week. Um, you know, there's a

540
00:33:42.440 --> 00:33:47.160
scripture that says out of the heart, the mouth speaks. There's

541
00:33:47.160 --> 00:33:51.320
also a scripture that says out of the heart flow the issues of

542
00:33:51.320 --> 00:33:56.480
life. And there's scriptures about storing things in our

543
00:33:56.480 --> 00:34:01.760
heart. Mary stored all these things in her heart, right? Um,

544
00:34:03.160 --> 00:34:06.960
oh, what's her name? Um, what was the one that couldn't get

545
00:34:06.960 --> 00:34:11.600
pregnant? Not Sarah, but the other one. And Hannah, Hannah,

546
00:34:11.600 --> 00:34:16.440
Hannah stored these things in her heart, right? And, and so

547
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:22.760
it's so important. Um, that even if you don't have time to take

548
00:34:22.760 --> 00:34:26.320
notes and do it the way you were taught in school, and all of

549
00:34:26.320 --> 00:34:31.880
that, but you're storing things in your heart. And those things

550
00:34:32.040 --> 00:34:37.639
are then readily available for the Lord to use. So part of

551
00:34:37.639 --> 00:34:43.120
integrating faith is that as you're storing these things,

552
00:34:43.320 --> 00:34:47.800
then it's really amazing the role of the Holy Spirit when you

553
00:34:47.800 --> 00:34:54.280
read, like john things chapters 14 through 16. When it's really

554
00:34:54.280 --> 00:34:58.560
on the dissertation of the Holy Spirit, it says that one of the

555
00:34:58.560 --> 00:35:00.040
roles of the Holy Spirit

556
00:35:00.000 --> 00:35:06.480
is he will remind you of the things that he's spoken.

557
00:35:06.480 --> 00:35:11.280
So I believe that's both the logos word, the written word,

558
00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:12.920
and the rhema word.

559
00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:20.920
So when I am putting scripture in every day,

560
00:35:20.920 --> 00:35:26.160
and then when I journal, God will often

561
00:35:26.160 --> 00:35:28.920
remind me of those scriptures.

562
00:35:28.960 --> 00:35:33.080
And when God speaks, I'm always going back

563
00:35:33.080 --> 00:35:36.760
over what he has spoken.

564
00:35:36.760 --> 00:35:39.440
So when I ask you the question about first quarter,

565
00:35:39.440 --> 00:35:44.160
I got asked that question by my coach about where faith, what

566
00:35:44.160 --> 00:35:46.560
was the big things where faith was integrated

567
00:35:46.560 --> 00:35:47.600
in first quarter.

568
00:35:47.600 --> 00:35:49.880
So fortunately, I journal.

569
00:35:49.880 --> 00:35:52.160
So I thought, let me just look through.

570
00:35:52.160 --> 00:35:55.480
And I go back over my journal often,

571
00:35:55.480 --> 00:35:59.280
and underline, and highlight, and the big things.

572
00:35:59.280 --> 00:36:02.120
I go back over it, over and over,

573
00:36:02.120 --> 00:36:05.440
storing God's word in my heart.

574
00:36:05.440 --> 00:36:08.640
And so I could look back at the highlighted things

575
00:36:08.640 --> 00:36:10.080
for the first quarter.

576
00:36:10.080 --> 00:36:17.120
And one of the things that he has taught me to say often,

577
00:36:17.120 --> 00:36:21.360
and even repeat a few times, is all is well.

578
00:36:21.360 --> 00:36:23.240
Of course, Romans 828, everything's

579
00:36:23.240 --> 00:36:24.360
working together for good.

580
00:36:24.360 --> 00:36:25.480
All is well.

581
00:36:25.480 --> 00:36:26.640
All is well.

582
00:36:26.640 --> 00:36:30.200
So when chaos is coming at you, and you can just say,

583
00:36:30.200 --> 00:36:33.920
all is well, when you're not sure how something's

584
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:35.880
going to happen, all is well.

585
00:36:35.880 --> 00:36:38.600
So God, that was one of my lessons in first quarter.

586
00:36:38.600 --> 00:36:40.920
Well, that could have just come and gone.

587
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:44.200
But because I noticed God repeated it all

588
00:36:44.200 --> 00:36:46.360
throughout the first quarter, I actually

589
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:48.280
started highlighting it all the times

590
00:36:48.280 --> 00:36:50.920
he told me to remember all is well,

591
00:36:50.960 --> 00:36:54.800
and even count how many times he said that.

592
00:36:54.800 --> 00:36:58.960
And so this is where you're honoring part of faith

593
00:36:58.960 --> 00:37:01.480
integrated, is you're honoring God's word.

594
00:37:01.480 --> 00:37:04.480
You're making God's word top priority in your life.

595
00:37:04.480 --> 00:37:06.880
So you're hearing it.

596
00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:09.200
You're doing it.

597
00:37:09.200 --> 00:37:13.600
You're repeating it, that it becomes part of who you are.

598
00:37:13.600 --> 00:37:16.200
And yes, you think you're not getting it.

599
00:37:16.200 --> 00:37:17.880
But I'll tell you at the moment, there's

600
00:37:17.880 --> 00:37:20.680
other scriptures that say that when you go to speak

601
00:37:20.680 --> 00:37:22.720
and you don't know what you're going to say,

602
00:37:22.720 --> 00:37:24.240
that God will remind you.

603
00:37:24.240 --> 00:37:26.920
Well, he'll remind you of what you've put in,

604
00:37:26.920 --> 00:37:29.440
what you've got to work with.

605
00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:31.720
This is why the morning spiritual practice is

606
00:37:31.720 --> 00:37:33.000
so important.

607
00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:39.640
It's also why I'm doing what I've done for 10 years,

608
00:37:39.640 --> 00:37:42.760
the Resurrect Your Spirit and Business series

609
00:37:42.760 --> 00:37:46.720
on the 14th through the 19th to get ready for Easter,

610
00:37:46.720 --> 00:37:48.000
every day, 9 AM.

611
00:37:51.440 --> 00:37:56.600
Now, for everyone else, it's $97.

612
00:37:56.600 --> 00:37:59.760
For you as prosper leaders, it's only $47.

613
00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:02.520
So I'm going to give you, I'm going to email you

614
00:38:02.520 --> 00:38:04.840
the special link for you.

615
00:38:04.840 --> 00:38:07.880
But I'll show you the link to read about it.

616
00:38:07.880 --> 00:38:13.440
And why this is important is God told me 10 years ago,

617
00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:15.720
and he's had me do it every year,

618
00:38:15.720 --> 00:38:19.560
he told me to take you in with me

619
00:38:19.560 --> 00:38:23.320
and do a morning spiritual practice together.

620
00:38:23.320 --> 00:38:25.440
And so we do this together.

621
00:38:25.440 --> 00:38:29.600
It's me unveiling all of my spiritual practice,

622
00:38:29.600 --> 00:38:30.920
actually doing it.

623
00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:32.400
Several things are going to happen.

624
00:38:32.400 --> 00:38:35.360
We're going to do very deep transformational meditations.

625
00:38:35.360 --> 00:38:38.080
We're going to do the gratitude, the declarations, everything

626
00:38:38.080 --> 00:38:39.640
of a morning practice.

627
00:38:39.640 --> 00:38:44.640
At the end of the six days, you're going to have a habit.

628
00:38:44.640 --> 00:38:47.600
So if you didn't have it already, you're going to.

629
00:38:47.600 --> 00:38:51.520
If you did, you're going to pick up some really deep stuff

630
00:38:51.520 --> 00:38:52.920
and improve it.

631
00:38:52.920 --> 00:38:58.680
And you're going to go into Resurrection Sunday on the 20th

632
00:38:58.680 --> 00:39:02.560
with really a lot of transformation.

633
00:39:02.560 --> 00:39:06.480
So you guys be thinking, if you have any other question,

634
00:39:06.480 --> 00:39:13.720
I'm going to grab that link for you

635
00:39:13.760 --> 00:39:17.800
and put it in the chat so that you have it.

636
00:39:17.800 --> 00:39:22.880
And then I need to find the discount link for you as well.

637
00:39:22.880 --> 00:39:25.760
And I will email you that.

638
00:39:25.760 --> 00:39:28.520
But just in case you did not see this

639
00:39:28.520 --> 00:39:31.040
and you haven't marked your calendar,

640
00:39:31.040 --> 00:39:34.440
I'm going to give you this.

641
00:39:34.440 --> 00:39:37.640
Linda did a beautiful job, of course.

642
00:39:37.640 --> 00:39:39.040
Copy this.

643
00:39:39.040 --> 00:39:40.560
OK.

644
00:39:40.560 --> 00:39:43.000
It's going in.

645
00:39:43.480 --> 00:39:45.240
Are other people invited?

646
00:39:45.240 --> 00:39:46.280
I mean, like the public?

647
00:39:46.280 --> 00:39:48.280
Yes, please invite everybody.

648
00:39:48.280 --> 00:39:49.600
This is going to be so powerful.

649
00:39:49.600 --> 00:39:50.560
There's the link.

650
00:39:50.560 --> 00:39:53.320
Share that link with everybody.

651
00:39:53.320 --> 00:39:54.920
I'll be emailing you about it.

652
00:39:54.920 --> 00:39:56.440
I just made a video about it.

653
00:39:56.440 --> 00:39:59.000
I'm going to be emailing out here in a bit.

654
00:39:59.000 --> 00:40:01.840
But there's the link for everybody.

655
00:40:00.000 --> 00:40:04.000
Everybody, and then just for you guys as Prosper Leader members,

656
00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:07.680
you get a 50% off, but please, yeah, share this with everybody.

657
00:40:07.680 --> 00:40:09.680
It's going to be very, very powerful.

658
00:40:09.680 --> 00:40:12.320
Okay, Lois, did you raise your hand again?

659
00:40:12.320 --> 00:40:13.620
I did.

660
00:40:13.620 --> 00:40:14.920
Okay, good.

661
00:40:14.920 --> 00:40:16.220
All right.

662
00:40:16.220 --> 00:40:17.520
I wasn't just calling you again.

663
00:40:17.520 --> 00:40:18.820
Okay, go ahead.

664
00:40:18.820 --> 00:40:24.040
My question, Brenda, is related to the scriptural concept

665
00:40:24.040 --> 00:40:25.760
of dominion over time.

666
00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:27.060
Yeah.

667
00:40:27.100 --> 00:40:31.100
I feel like I come from a family of origin

668
00:40:31.100 --> 00:40:33.060
that struggles with time,

669
00:40:33.060 --> 00:40:36.100
and I understand these things that we've been talking about,

670
00:40:36.100 --> 00:40:39.480
but I want to actually absorb this

671
00:40:39.480 --> 00:40:42.940
and create major shifts in that,

672
00:40:42.940 --> 00:40:46.320
and I feel like I still could use some support in that.

673
00:40:46.320 --> 00:40:47.880
So if you could speak to that a little bit,

674
00:40:47.880 --> 00:40:49.560
if you have any wisdom.

675
00:40:49.560 --> 00:40:51.320
Yeah, I love that.

676
00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:55.900
Man, there's so much to that.

677
00:40:55.900 --> 00:40:58.640
I believe the whole thing starts

678
00:40:58.640 --> 00:41:03.540
with the posture of stewardship.

679
00:41:03.540 --> 00:41:05.500
We're called a steward.

680
00:41:05.500 --> 00:41:08.420
I didn't know that word before I learned it in Bible studies.

681
00:41:08.420 --> 00:41:11.540
It's kind of a biblical word,

682
00:41:11.540 --> 00:41:15.580
and a steward is a wise manager, right?

683
00:41:15.580 --> 00:41:20.220
And I believe and very scripturally believe this,

684
00:41:20.220 --> 00:41:24.760
that we're called to steward our money.

685
00:41:24.760 --> 00:41:26.720
Most people know that.

686
00:41:26.720 --> 00:41:30.500
We're also called to steward our time.

687
00:41:30.500 --> 00:41:32.240
We're called to steward our time.

688
00:41:32.240 --> 00:41:35.960
This is the highest of stewarding our time.

689
00:41:35.960 --> 00:41:41.280
I also believe we're called to steward our health, our body.

690
00:41:41.280 --> 00:41:45.180
I believe we're called to steward our energy.

691
00:41:45.180 --> 00:41:50.280
I believe we're called to steward our relationships, okay?

692
00:41:50.280 --> 00:41:53.160
So how do you do this?

693
00:41:53.160 --> 00:41:58.260
Well, the first step to any transformation is awareness,

694
00:41:58.260 --> 00:42:02.100
and that's why I say do the time study, okay?

695
00:42:02.100 --> 00:42:06.400
Just first become aware of how is it now.

696
00:42:06.400 --> 00:42:09.280
How are you spending your time now?

697
00:42:09.280 --> 00:42:12.200
Where are the gaps that are time sucks?

698
00:42:12.200 --> 00:42:15.220
Like any of you start scrolling,

699
00:42:15.220 --> 00:42:16.720
and all of a sudden you look up,

700
00:42:16.720 --> 00:42:17.880
and it's been a half an hour.

701
00:42:17.880 --> 00:42:19.980
I mean, that's deliberately designed to do that.

702
00:42:19.980 --> 00:42:21.760
It's been an hour.

703
00:42:21.760 --> 00:42:23.460
That's a time suck, right?

704
00:42:23.460 --> 00:42:24.360
And there's so many.

705
00:42:24.360 --> 00:42:25.500
It could be television.

706
00:42:25.500 --> 00:42:26.920
It could be video games.

707
00:42:26.920 --> 00:42:29.800
It could be social media scrolling.

708
00:42:29.800 --> 00:42:32.540
It could be anything.

709
00:42:32.540 --> 00:42:37.800
And so the first thing with awareness is to start to say,

710
00:42:37.800 --> 00:42:44.640
where are the time sucks that I could transmute, right?

711
00:42:44.640 --> 00:42:47.820
And that's the first big chunk,

712
00:42:47.820 --> 00:42:50.120
and how could what we open the conversation with,

713
00:42:50.120 --> 00:42:54.120
how could I redeem that time?

714
00:42:54.120 --> 00:43:00.260
So taking dominion is using your God-given authority,

715
00:43:00.260 --> 00:43:08.900
your God-given dominion to steward that time.

716
00:43:08.900 --> 00:43:15.640
With ROI, there's a return on investment.

717
00:43:15.640 --> 00:43:24.180
So we look at the returns, and we need to have a long vision.

718
00:43:24.180 --> 00:43:26.820
Too many of us are a microwave society,

719
00:43:26.820 --> 00:43:32.060
and so we have very short vision, right?

720
00:43:32.060 --> 00:43:36.820
But it's the cumulative that is absolutely amazing.

721
00:43:36.820 --> 00:43:39.300
So first, it starts with awareness,

722
00:43:39.300 --> 00:43:42.400
and from that, you can make changes.

723
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:46.720
And the best way to make changes is to create a new habit.

724
00:43:46.720 --> 00:43:49.280
And there's a lot of things in Prosper Leader membership

725
00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:51.160
about how to create a new habit.

726
00:43:51.160 --> 00:43:53.040
There's atomic habits.

727
00:43:53.040 --> 00:43:57.120
It's tying it to something that you're already doing.

728
00:43:57.120 --> 00:43:59.080
So like I taught you, those of you

729
00:43:59.080 --> 00:44:01.260
that want to do a morning spiritual practice,

730
00:44:01.260 --> 00:44:03.640
what do you already do first thing in the morning?

731
00:44:03.640 --> 00:44:06.680
Most of you go get a cup of coffee or a nutritional drink

732
00:44:06.680 --> 00:44:08.160
or something.

733
00:44:08.160 --> 00:44:10.920
OK, tie it to something you're already doing.

734
00:44:10.920 --> 00:44:12.320
So you train your brain.

735
00:44:12.320 --> 00:44:17.040
As soon as I get that nutritional drink, for me,

736
00:44:17.040 --> 00:44:19.540
I go make myself a big, you can see how messy this is,

737
00:44:19.540 --> 00:44:21.160
green drink, right?

738
00:44:21.160 --> 00:44:25.360
And when I make that green drink, I bring it back.

739
00:44:25.360 --> 00:44:27.200
I've got a set place.

740
00:44:27.200 --> 00:44:30.440
You can see this big chair behind me there.

741
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:33.660
That's my comfy worship chair in here.

742
00:44:33.660 --> 00:44:35.680
And I bring the drink.

743
00:44:35.680 --> 00:44:38.920
I grab my pens and my Bibles and my journal.

744
00:44:38.920 --> 00:44:41.520
I sit in that big chair.

745
00:44:41.520 --> 00:44:43.920
And so now I've started a new habit.

746
00:44:43.920 --> 00:44:46.160
It's tied to something I'm already doing.

747
00:44:46.160 --> 00:44:48.080
I sit and I do that.

748
00:44:48.080 --> 00:44:52.400
And then it's good at the back end to reward yourself.

749
00:44:52.400 --> 00:44:54.400
If you did it five days or you did something,

750
00:44:54.400 --> 00:44:57.000
do something just until it becomes a new habit.

751
00:44:57.000 --> 00:45:01.320
30 days, 60 days, it just becomes.

752
00:45:00.000 --> 00:45:02.300
part of your life, right?

753
00:45:02.300 --> 00:45:07.060
And so habit is the best way to take dominion

754
00:45:07.060 --> 00:45:10.340
because our habits are what's running us, right?

755
00:45:10.340 --> 00:45:13.220
Our habits are determining our whole future.

756
00:45:13.220 --> 00:45:17.680
And the long-term cumulative of habits is so amazing.

757
00:45:17.680 --> 00:45:20.540
When I think that I have been doing

758
00:45:20.540 --> 00:45:24.700
in morning spiritual practice for many decades,

759
00:45:24.700 --> 00:45:27.500
this is why the word comes so easily for me.

760
00:45:27.500 --> 00:45:29.340
This is why my faith is where it is,

761
00:45:29.340 --> 00:45:31.620
not that I've arrived and I've got a long way to go,

762
00:45:31.620 --> 00:45:34.300
but it's that cumulative.

763
00:45:34.300 --> 00:45:36.860
When I think about my health,

764
00:45:36.860 --> 00:45:40.340
that at my age I dance at the level that I dance

765
00:45:40.340 --> 00:45:44.620
and I do Pilates and I'm so thankful.

766
00:45:44.620 --> 00:45:47.580
It's that I have since 17,

767
00:45:47.580 --> 00:45:52.480
I have been 100% committed to daily practices

768
00:45:52.480 --> 00:45:55.380
for my health, right?

769
00:45:55.380 --> 00:45:58.980
And I was fortunate to learn late,

770
00:45:58.980 --> 00:46:03.980
but still enough time the role of emotions

771
00:46:04.100 --> 00:46:06.460
and my health and be able to make,

772
00:46:06.460 --> 00:46:10.340
because we have habits, we have habits of speaking,

773
00:46:10.340 --> 00:46:13.300
we have habits of doing, we have habits of being,

774
00:46:13.300 --> 00:46:15.480
we have habits of thinking.

775
00:46:15.480 --> 00:46:18.420
These are all habits we wanna change.

776
00:46:18.420 --> 00:46:22.040
And so does that answer the question?

777
00:46:22.040 --> 00:46:25.740
Really the dominion is taking authority over

778
00:46:25.740 --> 00:46:28.500
in a committed, decided way

779
00:46:28.500 --> 00:46:32.740
as an honor and a form of worship as stewardship.

780
00:46:32.740 --> 00:46:35.400
Does that help a little bit?

781
00:46:35.400 --> 00:46:38.180
Yeah, so what you're saying is it's gonna start

782
00:46:38.180 --> 00:46:41.540
with like the intention and then the decision,

783
00:46:41.540 --> 00:46:45.820
which is followed by intentional habit creations.

784
00:46:45.820 --> 00:46:46.660
Yes.

785
00:46:46.660 --> 00:46:50.860
And what you're saying is tied to some other something.

786
00:46:50.860 --> 00:46:51.700
Yes.

787
00:46:51.700 --> 00:46:52.940
So until it becomes permanent.

788
00:46:52.940 --> 00:46:53.980
Yes.

789
00:46:53.980 --> 00:46:56.080
Yeah, I just, sometimes I feel like,

790
00:46:56.080 --> 00:46:59.160
because at least in the last number of years,

791
00:46:59.160 --> 00:47:01.520
I've had a lot of disruption in my life.

792
00:47:01.520 --> 00:47:02.360
Yeah.

793
00:47:02.360 --> 00:47:06.200
And so I had many habits and many routines

794
00:47:06.200 --> 00:47:09.920
and many practices that have just blown up on me.

795
00:47:09.920 --> 00:47:10.740
Yeah.

796
00:47:10.740 --> 00:47:14.200
And even when I sit like, and I use the 20 minute,

797
00:47:14.200 --> 00:47:16.280
that's great, but it's like my brain

798
00:47:16.280 --> 00:47:17.680
is a new brain in some ways.

799
00:47:17.680 --> 00:47:20.640
And it's, I just hit the shut off

800
00:47:20.640 --> 00:47:22.880
because I'm intensely focusing.

801
00:47:22.880 --> 00:47:24.800
I don't reset the 20 minutes.

802
00:47:24.800 --> 00:47:27.940
And then an hour later, I'm still working on the thing.

803
00:47:27.940 --> 00:47:28.780
Yeah.

804
00:47:28.780 --> 00:47:29.600
Without knowing how to break.

805
00:47:29.600 --> 00:47:30.440
And so.

806
00:47:30.440 --> 00:47:31.280
Yeah.

807
00:47:31.280 --> 00:47:36.000
And it's the demands of like the dominion teaches me

808
00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:39.260
to be in charge of what I consider priority.

809
00:47:39.260 --> 00:47:40.100
Yeah.

810
00:47:40.100 --> 00:47:43.000
And that's also perhaps.

811
00:47:43.000 --> 00:47:44.920
And like I say, for some of you,

812
00:47:44.920 --> 00:47:49.000
like focusing for an hour, if you're hyper-focused,

813
00:47:49.000 --> 00:47:50.000
you don't have to break.

814
00:47:50.000 --> 00:47:52.040
Like if I'm writing my book,

815
00:47:52.040 --> 00:47:54.040
I don't have to stop at 20 minutes

816
00:47:54.040 --> 00:47:56.160
if I'm in the middle of writing a chapter.

817
00:47:56.160 --> 00:47:57.800
I'll go a full hour.

818
00:47:57.800 --> 00:48:02.480
However, I have been known if I'm not disciplined

819
00:48:02.480 --> 00:48:05.460
and I'm not using dominion and authority

820
00:48:05.460 --> 00:48:09.920
that I could sit in this chair three to five hours

821
00:48:09.920 --> 00:48:13.760
and not get up because I have the ability to focus

822
00:48:13.760 --> 00:48:16.200
and I can end up back to back to back with things.

823
00:48:16.200 --> 00:48:19.020
So there's a couple things about that,

824
00:48:20.200 --> 00:48:21.600
whether it's setting your watch

825
00:48:21.720 --> 00:48:24.240
or even if it's just standing up in place,

826
00:48:24.240 --> 00:48:25.520
it's so important.

827
00:48:25.520 --> 00:48:30.320
But we know as far as like getting things done

828
00:48:30.320 --> 00:48:34.640
that doing in 20 minute chunks with that break

829
00:48:34.640 --> 00:48:37.520
or maximum hour with that break,

830
00:48:37.520 --> 00:48:40.720
you'll get more done in three hours than eight or 12

831
00:48:40.720 --> 00:48:43.320
of distracted juggling, doing many things.

832
00:48:43.320 --> 00:48:46.680
So it actually is a very wise use of time.

833
00:48:46.680 --> 00:48:50.520
You're condensing a lot of things by doing that.

834
00:48:50.560 --> 00:48:53.160
Then with distractions,

835
00:48:53.160 --> 00:48:57.960
there's boundaries as to what is truly,

836
00:48:57.960 --> 00:49:00.800
and this is where you can go back to,

837
00:49:00.800 --> 00:49:05.520
Stephen Covey's square of urgent and important

838
00:49:05.520 --> 00:49:07.880
and kind of review and think about that

839
00:49:07.880 --> 00:49:12.480
because I'm learning, especially family members,

840
00:49:12.480 --> 00:49:16.940
not to jump or let their emergency become my emergency

841
00:49:16.940 --> 00:49:20.980
unless it's a true medical emergency or something.

842
00:49:20.980 --> 00:49:24.620
I've learned now to not feel guilty

843
00:49:24.620 --> 00:49:29.580
and to say things like I'm not available until,

844
00:49:29.580 --> 00:49:32.420
and I give a time, I'll reach out to you then.

845
00:49:33.280 --> 00:49:35.240
So that my day isn't all broken up,

846
00:49:35.240 --> 00:49:36.160
I'm not getting a million,

847
00:49:36.160 --> 00:49:37.840
I'm not answering the phone calls,

848
00:49:37.840 --> 00:49:41.940
let it go to recording, I'm not answering every beep,

849
00:49:41.940 --> 00:49:43.460
I'm not on social media,

850
00:49:43.460 --> 00:49:45.400
I pop on in the morning to do something,

851
00:49:45.400 --> 00:49:46.700
I pop on to post something,

852
00:49:47.460 --> 00:49:49.220
but I'm not on there.

853
00:49:49.220 --> 00:49:53.400
So you see, these are all time sucks that we look at.

854
00:49:53.400 --> 00:49:57.500
And so when you're going through family crisis,

855
00:49:57.500 --> 00:49:59.140
like some of the stuff you've gone through,

856
00:49:59.140 --> 00:49:59.980
hey,

857
00:50:00.000 --> 00:50:03.240
There's nothing, a crisis upheavals everything.

858
00:50:03.240 --> 00:50:05.680
You just do the best you can to ride the wave.

859
00:50:05.680 --> 00:50:08.880
When there's a tsunami, you're not using your timer

860
00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:12.040
and trying to map out 20 minute questions.

861
00:50:12.040 --> 00:50:15.060
There's a tsunami for goodness, you're trying to survive.

862
00:50:15.060 --> 00:50:20.060
So this is in general, and then we have to learn

863
00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:23.160
how to maintain our peace in the tsunami.

864
00:50:23.160 --> 00:50:26.220
How can I just close my eyes where I am

865
00:50:26.220 --> 00:50:30.220
in that hospital room and spend a minute with God in prayer?

866
00:50:30.220 --> 00:50:32.620
How can I just take my Bible and read it

867
00:50:32.620 --> 00:50:35.860
when I'm sitting in the car doing this emergency?

868
00:50:35.860 --> 00:50:39.740
You know, it's again, redeeming the time, even in the chaos.

869
00:50:39.740 --> 00:50:40.880
Does that make sense?

870
00:50:42.460 --> 00:50:45.820
And then, I see you, you've come through the other side,

871
00:50:45.820 --> 00:50:46.940
you're doing the right things.

872
00:50:46.940 --> 00:50:49.340
Those habits will come back, they'll come back easier

873
00:50:49.340 --> 00:50:52.340
because you've had them before.

874
00:50:52.340 --> 00:50:53.460
Hey, is that helpful?

875
00:50:54.460 --> 00:50:57.780
Yes, and I think what you just said is important for me to hear.

876
00:50:57.780 --> 00:51:00.340
And that is, I actually have to be intentional

877
00:51:00.340 --> 00:51:03.540
to reinstate the habit in these habits.

878
00:51:03.540 --> 00:51:07.220
I think that's what I'm hearing because it used to be,

879
00:51:07.220 --> 00:51:09.980
it had become habit and now they're not habits anymore.

880
00:51:09.980 --> 00:51:13.180
So I have to like recreate these habits.

881
00:51:13.180 --> 00:51:16.020
Yeah, just kind of like I had to train my children

882
00:51:16.020 --> 00:51:18.380
to sleep again every time they got sick.

883
00:51:18.380 --> 00:51:21.380
You have to, okay, now you're gonna go to sleep, right?

884
00:51:21.740 --> 00:51:24.900
So I think I have to treat myself that same way.

885
00:51:24.900 --> 00:51:29.180
Beautiful, beautiful, great, great awareness there.

886
00:51:29.180 --> 00:51:30.100
I love that.

887
00:51:30.100 --> 00:51:32.860
And a lot of them you have muscle memory for,

888
00:51:32.860 --> 00:51:35.580
the habits will be easier to create this time around.

889
00:51:35.580 --> 00:51:38.220
You've done it before, you build on those previous.

890
00:51:38.220 --> 00:51:41.980
And so that's the concept of success stacking.

891
00:51:41.980 --> 00:51:43.900
How did I build the habit before?

892
00:51:43.900 --> 00:51:44.740
What worked?

893
00:51:44.740 --> 00:51:46.300
What were the things that I did?

894
00:51:46.300 --> 00:51:49.020
Oh yeah, I did this and then this and this.

895
00:51:49.300 --> 00:51:51.780
I've just got like signals from my brain.

896
00:51:51.780 --> 00:51:53.740
I've got the place where I'm gonna sit.

897
00:51:53.740 --> 00:51:55.380
I've got the pens I'm gonna use.

898
00:51:55.380 --> 00:51:57.620
It's easy to grab.

899
00:51:57.620 --> 00:52:00.820
Like whatever it is, like there's these signals

900
00:52:00.820 --> 00:52:02.060
for your brain.

901
00:52:03.300 --> 00:52:07.020
So love that, love that.

902
00:52:07.020 --> 00:52:08.940
I'm looking at the thing here.

903
00:52:08.940 --> 00:52:10.580
What's, oops, nice Brenda.

904
00:52:10.580 --> 00:52:11.500
What did I, what was that?

905
00:52:11.500 --> 00:52:12.340
Oh, Karen, I got it.

906
00:52:12.340 --> 00:52:14.260
It was an earlier thing I said, wasn't it?

907
00:52:14.260 --> 00:52:15.100
That's funny.

908
00:52:15.100 --> 00:52:17.780
Okay, so thank you, Lois.

909
00:52:17.780 --> 00:52:20.460
And that was a great awareness.

910
00:52:20.460 --> 00:52:23.500
I'm so glad and go back.

911
00:52:23.500 --> 00:52:26.180
You know, anytime with anything,

912
00:52:26.180 --> 00:52:30.460
like some of you that are dealing with initial sobriety

913
00:52:30.460 --> 00:52:32.260
and you know what?

914
00:52:32.260 --> 00:52:34.020
It's not perfect the first time.

915
00:52:34.020 --> 00:52:36.420
You might make it a week, you might make it 30 days

916
00:52:36.420 --> 00:52:38.060
and you slip, get back up.

917
00:52:38.060 --> 00:52:39.140
Right, Karen?

918
00:52:39.140 --> 00:52:41.740
And then next time it's a little longer, get back.

919
00:52:41.740 --> 00:52:45.380
So like, don't judge yourself harshly.

920
00:52:45.380 --> 00:52:48.940
Success stack on the wind, celebrate what's working.

921
00:52:48.940 --> 00:52:53.460
And yes, decisively decide to go back to build

922
00:52:53.460 --> 00:52:56.260
especially these faith integrating habits.

923
00:52:56.260 --> 00:52:59.860
And just honoring of yourself,

924
00:52:59.860 --> 00:53:02.260
honoring that your sleep matters,

925
00:53:02.260 --> 00:53:05.660
honoring that you're eating and drinking water matters.

926
00:53:05.660 --> 00:53:08.380
Like what are the things you're implementing

927
00:53:08.380 --> 00:53:09.460
that really matter?

928
00:53:09.460 --> 00:53:14.020
And that's where I said cumulatively, wow.

929
00:53:14.020 --> 00:53:17.380
What I chose to do with my health since 17

930
00:53:17.380 --> 00:53:19.420
has really paid off.

931
00:53:20.540 --> 00:53:22.220
I went and got my blood work done.

932
00:53:22.220 --> 00:53:24.580
It's completely flawless.

933
00:53:24.580 --> 00:53:26.740
I'm over 60 ladies.

934
00:53:26.740 --> 00:53:28.660
It's completely flawless.

935
00:53:28.660 --> 00:53:32.500
But this is habits implemented.

936
00:53:32.500 --> 00:53:33.820
And I praise God.

937
00:53:33.820 --> 00:53:36.420
And I know many of you are doing the right thing

938
00:53:36.420 --> 00:53:38.220
and it still doesn't work out perfect.

939
00:53:38.220 --> 00:53:39.900
And there's genetics and there's stress

940
00:53:39.900 --> 00:53:41.060
and there's all kinds of things.

941
00:53:41.060 --> 00:53:43.860
So I don't ever, none of this is to shame.

942
00:53:44.700 --> 00:53:45.820
It's only to encourage.

943
00:53:45.820 --> 00:53:48.180
And what I would say is success stack.

944
00:53:48.180 --> 00:53:50.380
What things have you done in the past?

945
00:53:50.380 --> 00:53:54.580
Oh, I remember you think I used to juice every morning

946
00:53:54.580 --> 00:53:56.580
that I had so much energy.

947
00:53:56.580 --> 00:53:58.620
I'm going back to juicing every morning

948
00:53:58.620 --> 00:54:01.340
or oh, I used to walk every day.

949
00:54:01.340 --> 00:54:02.780
That's it, it's warming up.

950
00:54:02.780 --> 00:54:04.100
I'm gonna go back to walking.

951
00:54:04.100 --> 00:54:06.500
Like success stack, you have memory for it.

952
00:54:06.500 --> 00:54:09.460
You've done it once, you can do it again, right?

953
00:54:09.460 --> 00:54:11.940
When you were successful in getting things done

954
00:54:11.940 --> 00:54:13.220
and finishing projects,

955
00:54:13.220 --> 00:54:15.220
when you were successful in your prayer life,

956
00:54:15.220 --> 00:54:20.220
whatever it is, build on those success stack, okay?

957
00:54:20.540 --> 00:54:22.340
That's a tool, all right?

958
00:54:22.340 --> 00:54:26.980
And then habits, our life is governed by habits.

959
00:54:26.980 --> 00:54:28.300
We're just living by habits.

960
00:54:28.300 --> 00:54:30.220
So the sooner you can make something a habit,

961
00:54:30.220 --> 00:54:33.780
the more likely it's gonna become part of your life, okay?

962
00:54:33.780 --> 00:54:36.300
Great, great questions.

963
00:54:36.300 --> 00:54:38.340
I'm just thrilled.

964
00:54:38.340 --> 00:54:41.740
Thank you so much for asking these questions.

965
00:54:42.460 --> 00:54:45.940
I think we are at the top of the hour.

966
00:54:46.940 --> 00:54:49.780
I'd love for you to popcorn as fast as you can,

967
00:54:49.780 --> 00:54:51.580
just one thing that you're gonna apply,

968
00:54:51.580 --> 00:54:53.020
one thing that jumped out.

969
00:54:54.220 --> 00:54:55.940
Okay, wisdom is applied knowledge.

970
00:54:55.940 --> 00:54:58.300
So just popcorn, just unmute, say boom.

971
00:54:58.300 --> 00:55:00.500
It could be a word, a sentence, but popcorn.

972
00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.720
for me. Go ahead. Rebuild habits. Rebuild habits. Love it.

973
00:55:06.920 --> 00:55:12.080
Who else? Consider the various types of prayer. Good. Look at

974
00:55:12.080 --> 00:55:15.320
the different types of prayer. Remind me Tracy. I'll send I'll

975
00:55:15.320 --> 00:55:19.800
see if I can find it and send you some stuff. Okay. That was

976
00:55:19.800 --> 00:55:23.240
great. Who else? Quick. Popcorn.

977
00:55:24.120 --> 00:55:28.360
Remembering the habits just starting just because you stop

978
00:55:28.360 --> 00:55:32.760
doesn't mean it's permanent. Love it. Great. Great word. Who

979
00:55:32.760 --> 00:55:36.120
else? Yeah, I'm going to substitute like watching one of

980
00:55:36.120 --> 00:55:39.720
your videos as opposed to two or one and a half hours of

981
00:55:39.720 --> 00:55:42.920
watching Netflix like incorporate a video and then

982
00:55:42.920 --> 00:55:48.520
Netflix. So love it. Love it. Great choice. Great choice. Okay.

983
00:55:49.520 --> 00:55:54.280
Okay. Anybody else? unmute yourself. Maybe Bev. Who else?

984
00:55:54.320 --> 00:55:59.640
I didn't. I think the rest of you said something. Okay. Love

985
00:55:59.640 --> 00:56:04.200
you guys. Great work. So glad you showed up today. You made a

986
00:56:04.200 --> 00:56:07.560
difference not only in your own life, but for everybody prospers

987
00:56:07.560 --> 00:56:10.480
better when everybody shows up and the more of you that show

988
00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:14.440
up. So thank you. Thank you. Watch your emails for the

989
00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:17.520
upcoming resurrect your spirit and this is going to be very

990
00:56:17.520 --> 00:56:22.120
life changing. And we'll see you soon. Thank you
