1
00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:09.920
All right, and welcome to this episode of the Prosper Leader Membership Call.

2
00:00:09.920 --> 00:00:17.400
My favorite time as we gather together important concepts, like I said, when I had the vision

3
00:00:17.400 --> 00:00:24.680
for the Prosper Leader Membership, I just, God showed me women linking arms and really

4
00:00:24.680 --> 00:00:28.400
carrying each other across the finish line.

5
00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:31.800
And tonight is no different.

6
00:00:31.800 --> 00:00:36.200
Tonight we're going to be talking about a topic that is so, I mean, I think they're

7
00:00:36.200 --> 00:00:39.600
all significant, but this is a big one.

8
00:00:39.600 --> 00:00:41.320
This is so huge.

9
00:00:41.320 --> 00:00:47.520
This, what we're going to be talking about, which is resistance.

10
00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:53.960
Resistance is that internal force, and I think you all know it, maybe by a different form.

11
00:00:53.960 --> 00:00:58.900
It might come in the form of self-sabotage, it might come in the form of procrastination,

12
00:00:58.900 --> 00:01:07.960
it might come in, you know, very fancy excuses, but this resistance, resistance is standing

13
00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:14.720
between who you are right now and who you desire to be.

14
00:01:14.720 --> 00:01:22.560
Resistance is standing between what you have right now and those goals, dreams, and desires

15
00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:24.400
that you desire to have.

16
00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:28.600
So this is a really big deal, resistance.

17
00:01:28.600 --> 00:01:31.720
So I'm going to share some thoughts with you.

18
00:01:31.720 --> 00:01:34.760
I made some notes.

19
00:01:34.760 --> 00:01:40.520
And here's the thing that really, really jumped out at me about resistance.

20
00:01:40.520 --> 00:01:47.200
The greater, this might really encourage you, the greater the level of resistance that you

21
00:01:47.200 --> 00:01:54.720
are experiencing, the more significant, the bigger, like the closer you are to that big

22
00:01:54.720 --> 00:02:00.520
call, that God dream, that big purpose that you are called to accomplish.

23
00:02:00.520 --> 00:02:04.320
So if you've been feeling a lot of resistance, number one, you're not alone.

24
00:02:04.320 --> 00:02:08.960
I'm going to share with you through scripture, through history, you're not alone, but also

25
00:02:08.960 --> 00:02:15.320
it's a sign you're actually on track if you are experiencing resistance, right?

26
00:02:15.320 --> 00:02:23.800
Because every monumental endeavor, every profound work, every transformational mission

27
00:02:23.800 --> 00:02:29.520
throughout history has faced this inner force called resistance.

28
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:31.840
Think about Moses, right?

29
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:36.320
Did Moses have resistance when God told him to approach the Pharaoh?

30
00:02:36.320 --> 00:02:39.200
Oh yeah, his resistance came in self-doubt.

31
00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:40.720
I stutter, I can't talk.

32
00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:42.920
How could I possibly do this?

33
00:02:42.920 --> 00:02:44.120
Resistance.

34
00:02:44.120 --> 00:02:45.640
How about Jonah?

35
00:02:45.640 --> 00:02:50.520
Jonah decided to just like beeline, like jump on a ship and get the heck out of there instead

36
00:02:50.520 --> 00:02:52.320
of doing what he's supposed to do.

37
00:02:52.320 --> 00:02:56.560
And he had to take a little journey through the belly of a whale to break his resistance.

38
00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:59.320
You know, some people it takes more than others.

39
00:02:59.320 --> 00:03:08.880
You know, even Jesus, he was sweating, you know, tears, a sweat of blood, just be taken

40
00:03:08.880 --> 00:03:13.280
away, different kind of resistance.

41
00:03:13.280 --> 00:03:15.640
Go ahead and mute yourself, please.

42
00:03:15.640 --> 00:03:25.480
So I've been reading the book, The War of Art, and the chapter on resistance is so powerful.

43
00:03:25.480 --> 00:03:30.720
And so he really explains that resistance is that sneaky force.

44
00:03:30.720 --> 00:03:32.040
It is sneaky, isn't it?

45
00:03:32.040 --> 00:03:33.040
It's deceptive.

46
00:03:33.040 --> 00:03:40.480
It's that force that stands between you and that goal, that your true potential standing

47
00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:44.400
between you and that true potential is resistance.

48
00:03:44.400 --> 00:03:46.720
So he doesn't leave it there.

49
00:03:46.720 --> 00:03:51.460
He describes the types of resistance, but he gives you strategies.

50
00:03:51.460 --> 00:03:54.400
So today, this is going to be kind of a cliff notes from that.

51
00:03:54.400 --> 00:03:58.480
I am going to share some of those strategies, then we're going to get together and mastermind

52
00:03:58.480 --> 00:04:02.200
maybe even more, some applications on that.

53
00:04:02.200 --> 00:04:05.040
So let's start with number one.

54
00:04:05.040 --> 00:04:11.400
It's pretty basic, and that is acknowledge the resistance.

55
00:04:11.400 --> 00:04:17.000
We can be pretty sophisticated in making excuses and justifying and saying, well, you don't

56
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:24.480
know my, you don't know my situation, you know, and everybody's always got that, right?

57
00:04:24.480 --> 00:04:30.640
So here's a quote from the book, most of us have two lives.

58
00:04:30.640 --> 00:04:32.280
This is something to really think about.

59
00:04:32.280 --> 00:04:42.600
Most of us have two lives, the life we live and the unlived life within us.

60
00:04:42.600 --> 00:04:48.360
Whoa, two lives, the life we live, the unlived life within us.

61
00:04:48.360 --> 00:04:53.400
So he goes on to say in the war of art, recognizing resistance is the first step, right?

62
00:04:53.400 --> 00:04:55.600
We've got to acknowledge it.

63
00:04:55.600 --> 00:05:00.480
And I personally was blown away by how many.

64
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:08.720
forms resistance can take. Here's just a few of them. Procrastination, self-doubt, fear of failure,

65
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:18.640
perfectionism. My dog chewing on the wall here. Perfectionism, rationalization,

66
00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:28.000
distraction, comparison, self-sabotage, avoidance of pain,

67
00:05:29.920 --> 00:05:37.680
avoidance of pain, resistance to change, victim mentality, neglecting priorities,

68
00:05:37.680 --> 00:05:44.480
lack of discipline. It comes in so many forms. So the first thing to take your power back is

69
00:05:44.480 --> 00:05:49.200
be aware. Now, here's the really big one. This is probably one of my favorite. I've taught it

70
00:05:49.200 --> 00:05:54.080
over the years. One of my favorite. Number two, and by the way, you're going to get this handout.

71
00:05:54.080 --> 00:06:03.520
Number two, start before you are ready. Okay, one of the forms of resistance is telling yourself,

72
00:06:03.520 --> 00:06:10.080
I'm still not ready. And believe me, coaching all these years, I have seen some sophisticated,

73
00:06:10.080 --> 00:06:15.280
I'm not ready. I need another certification. I need another course. I just need to get that

74
00:06:15.280 --> 00:06:20.880
software. I just need to learn this. I just need to get the finance. I just, there's all of these

75
00:06:20.880 --> 00:06:28.080
reasons for not starting. Start before you're ready. One of my friends who's also a coach,

76
00:06:28.080 --> 00:06:34.880
good friend, Carrie, she calls it do it ugly, which of course reminds me, I've shared this story,

77
00:06:34.880 --> 00:06:42.720
James Malincheck. And he tells the story of his first book. And he talks about how the cover of

78
00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:48.400
this book was so ugly that all of his friends would make fun of him. He did not have it together.

79
00:06:49.120 --> 00:06:56.880
This book was ugly. And his response would always be, well, my book with the ugly cover

80
00:06:56.880 --> 00:07:03.200
is making me a lot more money than the book that you still haven't written. That's for you

81
00:07:03.200 --> 00:07:13.360
perfectionists out there, right? Because it says begin before you're ready. Don't prepare. Begin.

82
00:07:13.920 --> 00:07:19.040
Okay. Now that really drives some of you perfectionists a little crazy, but perfectionism

83
00:07:19.760 --> 00:07:26.000
fuels resistance. Don't wait for the perfect moment. Start now. I always like to say done

84
00:07:26.000 --> 00:07:34.560
is better than perfect. And one of my favorite verses is Ezekiel 11.4. Ezekiel 11.4 says this,

85
00:07:35.840 --> 00:07:43.280
if you wait for the perfect condition, you will never get anything done.

86
00:07:44.960 --> 00:07:52.320
Ecclesiastes 11.4, if you wait for the perfect condition, you'll never get anything done.

87
00:07:53.040 --> 00:08:00.800
Now, it was fun along this theme. I read on LinkedIn, Mel Robbins, and she was talking about

88
00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:06.160
how she was really beating herself up. And maybe some of you do this. She was talking about how

89
00:08:06.160 --> 00:08:11.840
she'd watch all these podcasts, just get online and become really successful. And she hadn't

90
00:08:11.840 --> 00:08:17.440
started hers. And so she kept on saying, I'm too late. She kept telling herself and how many of you,

91
00:08:18.320 --> 00:08:22.080
that's part of your resistance. You just go, oh, it's already been done. Oh,

92
00:08:22.080 --> 00:08:29.280
I'm too late. Shoot. Right. And she did a powerful, because she finally just recently,

93
00:08:29.280 --> 00:08:33.919
I think October of last year started her podcast. So she is way behind like all the people that

94
00:08:33.919 --> 00:08:41.200
started podcasts, but she's rocking it, obviously. And I can so relate to her post. She said,

95
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:47.040
in your 20s, you might have been going along in your career or your college and you're like,

96
00:08:47.280 --> 00:08:53.440
it's too late to change majors. Now it's too late to change course. If you're in your 30s

97
00:08:53.440 --> 00:08:57.600
and you're still single. And I've got some kids like that who are saying this,

98
00:08:58.640 --> 00:09:02.560
you think, oh, it's too late. I don't think I'm ever going to find someone. I'm not going to,

99
00:09:02.560 --> 00:09:08.000
I'm too late to have a baby. It's too late to start a family right in the 30s, in your 40s.

100
00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:12.720
Maybe some of you hit this. Oh, it's just too late. I messed up financially. I didn't put things in

101
00:09:12.720 --> 00:09:19.760
place. I think it was too late to catch up now and on and on it goes. So if that's your form of

102
00:09:19.760 --> 00:09:27.840
resistance, the answer is start now. And if Mel Robbins in her post, she said, start now, start

103
00:09:27.840 --> 00:09:34.960
over, you know, start again, whatever, just start. Okay. So number two, start before you really feel

104
00:09:34.960 --> 00:09:43.520
ready. Number three, this is another biggie. Take consistent action, take consistent action.

105
00:09:43.520 --> 00:09:52.160
Here's the key. Even when you're not inspired, take consistent action. Even when you don't feel

106
00:09:52.160 --> 00:09:59.920
like it. Now, I love this quote from the war of art. The professional has learned that success.

107
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:06.680
Success, like happiness, comes as a byproduct of work.

108
00:10:06.680 --> 00:10:11.080
So the key is, as he said, relying solely on inspiration

109
00:10:11.080 --> 00:10:12.480
can be a trap.

110
00:10:12.480 --> 00:10:14.600
Cultivate a disciplined approach,

111
00:10:14.600 --> 00:10:17.320
showing up day after day regardless

112
00:10:17.320 --> 00:10:20.160
of inspiration's presence.

113
00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:25.080
And the key to do this, because I always say consistency

114
00:10:25.080 --> 00:10:28.040
creates momentum, this is my secret

115
00:10:28.080 --> 00:10:30.280
when it comes to getting a breakthrough.

116
00:10:30.280 --> 00:10:32.360
Whether I'm trying to start a walking habit,

117
00:10:32.360 --> 00:10:34.920
whether I'm trying to, you know, a new exercise program

118
00:10:34.920 --> 00:10:37.640
or a new writing or a new language,

119
00:10:37.640 --> 00:10:41.640
my secret has always been, okay, if I'm adding that,

120
00:10:41.640 --> 00:10:43.600
I need to create a new habit.

121
00:10:43.600 --> 00:10:46.400
Because habit runs most of what we've done.

122
00:10:46.400 --> 00:10:49.080
And you guys can go back and listen to the talks I've done

123
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:50.840
on how to start a habit.

124
00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:52.560
But this would be a perfect thing.

125
00:10:52.560 --> 00:10:55.680
Consistency creates momentum, create the habit,

126
00:10:55.680 --> 00:10:57.640
so then the habit runs you.

127
00:10:58.240 --> 00:11:00.080
Another really great book, Atomic Habits,

128
00:11:00.080 --> 00:11:01.880
walks you through how to do that.

129
00:11:01.880 --> 00:11:04.760
That's a great way to get through resistance.

130
00:11:04.760 --> 00:11:08.040
Make it a habit so you don't have to use discipline

131
00:11:08.040 --> 00:11:10.200
and fighting and so on.

132
00:11:10.200 --> 00:11:13.960
Okay, number four, this was an interesting perspective.

133
00:11:13.960 --> 00:11:18.400
Turn pro, turn professional, turn pro.

134
00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:22.960
He says, the amateur tweets, the pro works.

135
00:11:22.960 --> 00:11:27.440
And I love this, make a commitment to professionalism.

136
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:30.920
This means showing up, putting in the effort

137
00:11:30.920 --> 00:11:35.600
and treating your passion like a job, even when it's tough.

138
00:11:35.600 --> 00:11:38.680
So think about those of you that left the workforce

139
00:11:38.680 --> 00:11:41.640
and now you're working on becoming a coach or a speaker

140
00:11:41.640 --> 00:11:45.120
or, you know, an author or whatever it is you're working on.

141
00:11:46.440 --> 00:11:50.360
Are you a pro or are you an amateur, professional?

142
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:52.480
So remember, when you went to work,

143
00:11:52.480 --> 00:11:54.680
how many times you were tired,

144
00:11:54.680 --> 00:11:56.800
you still had to get your butt to work.

145
00:11:56.840 --> 00:11:59.880
How many times did you not feel inspired?

146
00:11:59.880 --> 00:12:02.240
You still had to get your butt to work.

147
00:12:02.240 --> 00:12:03.880
How many times, right?

148
00:12:03.880 --> 00:12:05.040
You know what I'm talking about.

149
00:12:05.040 --> 00:12:07.600
You were sick and you showed up for work.

150
00:12:07.600 --> 00:12:09.640
So I want you to think about that

151
00:12:09.640 --> 00:12:12.280
because you were professional.

152
00:12:12.280 --> 00:12:14.840
You treated your job seriously.

153
00:12:14.840 --> 00:12:18.680
Now, what I wanna know is now that you're doing your passion

154
00:12:18.680 --> 00:12:22.240
which you love, which is even more important,

155
00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:24.680
are you being amateur, trying to do it

156
00:12:24.680 --> 00:12:26.640
when you feel like it, making excuses

157
00:12:27.480 --> 00:12:31.760
or are you being professional that you treat it like a job

158
00:12:31.760 --> 00:12:34.520
even when it's tough?

159
00:12:34.520 --> 00:12:38.400
Okay, number five, embrace the long haul.

160
00:12:38.400 --> 00:12:41.080
Embrace the long haul, okay?

161
00:12:41.080 --> 00:12:43.240
And so it's really easy to get discouraged

162
00:12:43.240 --> 00:12:45.760
if the process feels too slow for you,

163
00:12:45.760 --> 00:12:47.880
especially if you're living in the gap,

164
00:12:47.880 --> 00:12:51.120
it'll always feel too slow for you, okay?

165
00:12:51.120 --> 00:12:52.840
So it's easy to get discouraged,

166
00:12:52.840 --> 00:12:55.920
but success is built on commitment,

167
00:12:55.920 --> 00:12:58.800
committed effort over time.

168
00:12:58.800 --> 00:13:02.040
Again, consistency creates momentum, right?

169
00:13:02.040 --> 00:13:07.040
Number six, invite resistance as a companion, okay?

170
00:13:07.680 --> 00:13:09.280
And this is so powerful.

171
00:13:09.280 --> 00:13:13.160
The more important a call or an action

172
00:13:13.160 --> 00:13:16.200
is to our soul's evolution,

173
00:13:16.200 --> 00:13:19.680
the more resistance we will feel toward pursuing it.

174
00:13:19.680 --> 00:13:22.760
I'm telling you, I'm probably one of the more disciplined.

175
00:13:23.600 --> 00:13:25.640
I've spent a lot of years developing habit,

176
00:13:25.640 --> 00:13:26.800
developing discipline.

177
00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:29.560
Those of you that know me, I'm really disciplined,

178
00:13:29.560 --> 00:13:30.760
but guess what?

179
00:13:30.760 --> 00:13:34.160
Writing this book, which is probably the most important work

180
00:13:34.160 --> 00:13:38.520
that I've done yet, I mean, I've got it on my calendar,

181
00:13:38.520 --> 00:13:41.920
I've got it at 8 a.m., I'm committed

182
00:13:41.920 --> 00:13:45.240
and I'll be darned if some kind of resistance doesn't hit,

183
00:13:45.240 --> 00:13:47.160
you know, almost every day.

184
00:13:47.160 --> 00:13:50.680
It is so strong and when I read this,

185
00:13:50.680 --> 00:13:52.800
like the more important,

186
00:13:52.800 --> 00:13:56.760
because as I did the 10X is easier than 2X

187
00:13:56.760 --> 00:13:59.880
and I did the book, the one thing that I talked to you about

188
00:13:59.880 --> 00:14:02.320
which is what's the one or two things

189
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:05.320
that would make everything else fly?

190
00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:07.320
And for me, it was writing.

191
00:14:07.320 --> 00:14:11.400
And yet, where is the most resistance for me?

192
00:14:11.400 --> 00:14:12.360
It's in writing.

193
00:14:12.360 --> 00:14:13.760
Take a look for you.

194
00:14:13.760 --> 00:14:16.360
Where is the most resistant?

195
00:14:16.360 --> 00:14:17.920
I would venture to say,

196
00:14:17.920 --> 00:14:20.240
that's the thing God's called you to do.

197
00:14:20.760 --> 00:14:21.880
I would venture to say,

198
00:14:21.880 --> 00:14:24.120
that's tied in with your life purpose.

199
00:14:24.120 --> 00:14:28.280
That's tied in with what you're really supposed to be doing.

200
00:14:28.280 --> 00:14:30.280
Like I gave you examples from scripture,

201
00:14:30.280 --> 00:14:32.600
every single person in scripture,

202
00:14:32.600 --> 00:14:34.680
as they were pursuing their big call,

203
00:14:34.680 --> 00:14:36.760
there was so much resistance.

204
00:14:36.760 --> 00:14:40.080
So even trying to get the Israelites out of slavery

205
00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:43.440
into the promised land, how much resistance?

206
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:46.360
About water, about the food that they wanted to eat,

207
00:14:46.360 --> 00:14:48.920
about being tired, about complaining,

208
00:14:48.920 --> 00:14:53.760
how much resistance to get them into their promised land?

209
00:14:53.760 --> 00:14:57.160
And what is that thing that has not left you alone

210
00:14:57.160 --> 00:14:58.720
that you know, that you know, that you know,

211
00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:00.360
that you're supposed to be doing?

212
00:15:00.000 --> 00:15:09.000
It's resistance standing between you and that income, that impact, that legacy.

213
00:15:09.000 --> 00:15:13.000
This is a big, big deal, okay?

214
00:15:13.000 --> 00:15:16.000
Celebrate small wins.

215
00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:19.000
Now, you know I put that on the Prosper Daily Plan.

216
00:15:19.000 --> 00:15:26.000
You write your wins either at the end of the day for that day or first thing in the morning for the previous day.

217
00:15:26.000 --> 00:15:28.000
This does so much.

218
00:15:28.000 --> 00:15:36.000
If you can think about your wins and write them before you go to bed and you're falling asleep from a place of gratitude and not a place of fear,

219
00:15:36.000 --> 00:15:40.000
oh, I lack, I don't have time, what's going to happen tomorrow?

220
00:15:40.000 --> 00:15:42.000
Or same thing, first thing in the morning.

221
00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:46.000
Doing these wins has a way of keeping you in a positive.

222
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:54.000
And those of us that can often live in the gap, meaning the gap we notice what's missing, what we're still not doing,

223
00:15:54.000 --> 00:15:57.000
it's really easy to forget to celebrate the wins.

224
00:15:57.000 --> 00:16:00.000
It can be a game changer.

225
00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:05.000
He says, never forget this very moment we can change our lives.

226
00:16:05.000 --> 00:16:14.000
There was never was a moment and never will be when we are without the power to alter our destiny.

227
00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:19.000
Recognize and celebrate your victories, no matter how small.

228
00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:24.000
Write three wins per day, either last thing at night or first thing in the morning.

229
00:16:24.000 --> 00:16:26.000
OK, number eight.

230
00:16:26.000 --> 00:16:28.000
I added not in the book.

231
00:16:28.000 --> 00:16:33.000
It should be number one, which is prayer.

232
00:16:33.000 --> 00:16:34.000
Praying.

233
00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:45.000
I think what has helped me the most is to remember in whatever I get ready to do, because the procrastination or the resistance might be around self doubt.

234
00:16:45.000 --> 00:16:51.000
You mentioned it might be around fear and insecurity, could be programming, could be any reason.

235
00:16:51.000 --> 00:17:01.000
Right. And what what has really helped me is a little mantra and a little visualization.

236
00:17:01.000 --> 00:17:05.000
OK, and you guys can put it in your own language.

237
00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:14.000
OK, for me as a Christ follower, I'm totally aware biblically and you can see it however you see God, the universe, whatever.

238
00:17:14.000 --> 00:17:20.000
But Christ in me, there's so many scriptures that I'm the temple of the Holy Spirit.

239
00:17:20.000 --> 00:17:22.000
Christ in me, the hope of glory.

240
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:24.000
I have the mind of Christ.

241
00:17:24.000 --> 00:17:36.000
OK, so I visualize that I'm a container for God, Christ in me and scripture says I'm in Christ.

242
00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:38.000
We're hidden in Christ.

243
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.000
It was Jesus's last prayer.

244
00:17:40.000 --> 00:17:45.000
So there's this idea, Jesus prayed that we could understand that we are one.

245
00:17:45.000 --> 00:17:52.000
Both just he said, just like I, the father and I are one and I'm in them and they are in me and they are one with each other.

246
00:17:52.000 --> 00:17:54.000
May they understand that oneness.

247
00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:58.000
So the first thing I do is understanding, wow, I just get clear.

248
00:17:58.000 --> 00:18:00.000
It's not me doing this alone.

249
00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:05.000
It's Christ in me and I'm hidden in him as well.

250
00:18:05.000 --> 00:18:07.000
And we are one.

251
00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:09.000
And now I come from that place.

252
00:18:09.000 --> 00:18:11.000
Like, let's go ahead and start this writing.

253
00:18:11.000 --> 00:18:14.000
And now I come from the place as a vessel.

254
00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:16.000
I like to think of a water faucet.

255
00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:21.000
And so I think about this really big kind of shower bathtub type faucet.

256
00:18:21.000 --> 00:18:22.000
Right.

257
00:18:22.000 --> 00:18:30.000
And I'm just the faucet and the water, the spirit, the life, the living water flows through me.

258
00:18:30.000 --> 00:18:39.000
The prayer becomes right through me, speak through me, coach through me, heal through me.

259
00:18:39.000 --> 00:18:40.000
I'm just a vessel.

260
00:18:40.000 --> 00:18:41.000
I'm just a faucet.

261
00:18:41.000 --> 00:18:44.000
I'm not the water, but I'm open.

262
00:18:44.000 --> 00:18:45.000
I'm ready.

263
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:46.000
I'm available.

264
00:18:46.000 --> 00:18:49.000
Now, this gets rid of perfectionism because it's not really about you.

265
00:18:49.000 --> 00:18:51.000
It's about surrender.

266
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:52.000
It's about being open.

267
00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:57.000
It's about remembering who's really doing the healing, who's really doing the moving.

268
00:18:58.000 --> 00:19:03.000
And so that's why in Christ, in him, we live and move and have our being.

269
00:19:03.000 --> 00:19:22.000
So I pray that that puts a perspective when you get all bound up and you don't do the writing or you don't make that content or you don't reach out and do those calls back up and remember the power that you're bringing the life that you're bringing.

270
00:19:22.000 --> 00:19:28.000
So I pray that those things that I want you to think about, which one of those, which one of those can you apply?

271
00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:33.000
If you only apply one, just one small change can change everything.

272
00:19:33.000 --> 00:19:36.000
OK, we're going to get together and really talk about that.

273
00:19:36.000 --> 00:19:37.000
We are going to mastermind.

274
00:19:37.000 --> 00:19:39.000
We've got some amazing people in this group.

275
00:19:39.000 --> 00:19:40.000
We're going to mastermind.

276
00:19:40.000 --> 00:19:44.000
And so for those of you who are not in that, I'm going to sign off.

277
00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:47.000
I pray this blessed you for the rest of you.

278
00:19:47.000 --> 00:19:49.000
We're going to get together and turn our camera on.
