1
00:00:01,720 --> 00:00:06,000
Speaker 1: Continue to leverage principles to work for you, not against you,

2
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:09,000
and that's where you become an unbeatable person. So it's

3
00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:11,599
just understanding if I do the right things in the

4
00:00:11,679 --> 00:00:13,800
right order, I'm going to get the right result. It's

5
00:00:13,800 --> 00:00:18,399
the greatest encouragement to me. That's impossible. Let me tell

6
00:00:18,399 --> 00:00:23,920
you what I believe. It's your weakness, it's not your technique.

7
00:00:24,359 --> 00:00:27,239
Don't think you know.

8
00:00:27,359 --> 00:00:31,239
Speaker 2: You the Impossible Life Podcast, and you're sitting on a

9
00:00:31,239 --> 00:00:31,800
winning lottery.

10
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,359
Speaker 1: Second, an idea that is fully formed, fully understood, that sticks.

11
00:00:39,079 --> 00:00:42,840
This is the Impossible Life Podcast because Nick and I

12
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:46,840
are attempting to live impossible lives. What we know is

13
00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:51,039
that nothing is impossible. So instead of using impossible as

14
00:00:51,079 --> 00:00:53,920
an excuse to not try, we'll use the pursuit of

15
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,520
impossible as an accelerant for greatness. If something's never been

16
00:00:58,520 --> 00:01:02,280
done before, that just means it's unexplored. If they tell

17
00:01:02,320 --> 00:01:05,599
you it's too hard, it's just waiting to be simplified.

18
00:01:06,719 --> 00:01:11,280
Impossible as a default label used by uncourageous people unwilling

19
00:01:11,439 --> 00:01:14,920
to take a risk. The real truth is this. The

20
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:19,680
solution to any impossible task starts with this question, if

21
00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:22,319
I had to what would it take? What would it take?

22
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:28,719
Speaker 2: Welcome to another episode of the Impossible Life Podcast. I'm

23
00:01:28,719 --> 00:01:30,719
your co host Nick Surface, and I'm looking across at

24
00:01:30,719 --> 00:01:33,079
a man so authoritative that when he goes to the

25
00:01:33,079 --> 00:01:35,719
gas station, the attendant asks him how much he wants

26
00:01:35,760 --> 00:01:37,879
to pay per gallon? That's right, friends, the phonement AVC

27
00:01:41,879 --> 00:01:44,480
Garrett uncle back, a man who pays the same price

28
00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:48,239
for guests as his grandpappy. Have you broken a dollar

29
00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:50,159
gallon yet? Are you're still paying quarters?

30
00:01:50,159 --> 00:01:53,079
Speaker 1: It's uh in my truck? I think it's gallons per mile?

31
00:01:53,439 --> 00:01:57,239
Oh okay, yeah, well yeah, but I think you've still

32
00:01:57,280 --> 00:01:59,680
got some of the UK on you, because there's no

33
00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:03,359
more unless it's I think it's New Jersey. There's like

34
00:02:03,359 --> 00:02:05,120
a couple of states left that you have to use

35
00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:06,120
the gas attendant.

36
00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:08,479
Speaker 2: I could be wrong on that, yeah, I mean, look, dude,

37
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:10,159
it was for an intro, bro it wasn't you know?

38
00:02:10,439 --> 00:02:12,039
Speaker 1: I know? But do they have that in the UK?

39
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:12,840
Is that what you're saying?

40
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:14,639
Speaker 2: No, I mean you you can pay it the pump

41
00:02:14,800 --> 00:02:16,719
or you go in and pay it's the same as here.

42
00:02:16,879 --> 00:02:19,000
Speaker 1: That was fresh in your mind. No. I just thought

43
00:02:19,000 --> 00:02:22,199
it was a great intro because it's like, yeah, makes

44
00:02:22,240 --> 00:02:24,280
It's why I don't like most jokes because it's just

45
00:02:24,319 --> 00:02:25,039
made up stuff.

46
00:02:26,199 --> 00:02:29,879
Speaker 2: Look, man, I've been in the Accurate Joke Intro series

47
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:31,319
for like a longtime.

48
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:33,080
Speaker 1: I know I was starting to like some of them.

49
00:02:33,319 --> 00:02:35,319
Speaker 2: Okay, you know what, man, that's actually you know, I mean,

50
00:02:35,439 --> 00:02:37,319
that's a win. I know you're trying to insult me,

51
00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:39,439
but it's a win because that's like a back end

52
00:02:39,479 --> 00:02:39,919
of compliment.

53
00:02:39,960 --> 00:02:41,599
Speaker 1: But you know what, at this point, I'm so starved.

54
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,639
It's still you know, we got some great feedback the

55
00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,639
other day where I said that humor is like ketchup. Yeah,

56
00:02:47,759 --> 00:02:50,199
people like that. By the way, it's true. Yeah it's not.

57
00:02:50,319 --> 00:02:51,520
It's gross. If it's the meal.

58
00:02:52,759 --> 00:02:55,120
Speaker 2: Look dude, it's the sauce. We start with the sauce

59
00:02:55,159 --> 00:02:56,639
first and now we're about to deliver the meat.

60
00:02:56,639 --> 00:02:58,360
Speaker 1: Are you ready. It's kind of like how my kids,

61
00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:03,240
uh each yeah, just sla eat the barbecue sauce.

62
00:03:03,960 --> 00:03:06,039
Speaker 2: And it's been like, oh, there's chicken too. That's how

63
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:08,039
we do our podcast. It's worked face for three hundred

64
00:03:08,039 --> 00:03:11,039
and fourteen episodes. Just let me let me go anyways,

65
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:13,639
all right, gee, so I'm always excited to the podcast

66
00:03:13,639 --> 00:03:15,840
as I've realized, because I say it every single time

67
00:03:15,879 --> 00:03:19,120
because it's true. I loved what we do, but this one, man, like,

68
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:22,599
this is so overdue. We're revisiting Principles today, and we

69
00:03:22,639 --> 00:03:25,159
originally did it on episode forty, which was literally four

70
00:03:25,240 --> 00:03:27,080
years ago, if you can believe it, so like that

71
00:03:27,240 --> 00:03:27,719
is hard to.

72
00:03:27,639 --> 00:03:30,039
Speaker 1: Believe it was episode forty. We're on three fourteen, bro.

73
00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:33,759
I'm glad we're coming back to Principles because I talk

74
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,319
to people all the time. Ye and this is not

75
00:03:35,479 --> 00:03:36,639
this is not a not, but I talk to people

76
00:03:36,639 --> 00:03:38,759
all the time. They're like, man, I love the podcast,

77
00:03:38,919 --> 00:03:40,800
like it's so great. It's helped me a time. I go, oh,

78
00:03:40,800 --> 00:03:44,000
how many episodes you listen to? They're like thirty, yeah, forty.

79
00:03:44,199 --> 00:03:48,199
I'm like that's amazing, that's wonderful. But also you've missed

80
00:03:48,199 --> 00:03:51,360
a lot. Yeah, yeah, you've missed a lot. Yeah, because

81
00:03:51,400 --> 00:03:53,280
and I love those people we talked to that They're like,

82
00:03:53,319 --> 00:03:54,960
I've listened. I went back to the beginning. I listened

83
00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:57,439
to everything. It's good for you. Yeah, there's a lot

84
00:03:57,439 --> 00:04:00,199
in there. We're not just you know, talking heads on here,

85
00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,280
Like there's specific content that you've missed. If you've only

86
00:04:03,319 --> 00:04:07,240
done thirty or forty episodes. However, since it's been four

87
00:04:07,319 --> 00:04:10,960
years and it's such a core topic, I'm I'm only

88
00:04:11,039 --> 00:04:14,120
surprised that it's been that long since we've decided. It's

89
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:16,120
one of the things I learned as a speaker, Like

90
00:04:16,199 --> 00:04:18,199
when I first began to speak, I'm like, well, can't

91
00:04:18,199 --> 00:04:20,519
say that again. I said that already, yeah, and then

92
00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:22,639
one of the things I've learned, and like a mentor said,

93
00:04:22,680 --> 00:04:24,160
to be men only have to be told once, they

94
00:04:24,199 --> 00:04:26,920
have to be reminded many times and give them reminders

95
00:04:26,959 --> 00:04:29,000
on the good stuff. I don't know why we haven't done,

96
00:04:29,399 --> 00:04:32,759
you know, principles, like an episode on principles every quarter.

97
00:04:33,120 --> 00:04:34,959
But here we are, well, we talk about them all

98
00:04:34,959 --> 00:04:36,399
the time, and that's what we do. We talk about them.

99
00:04:36,480 --> 00:04:38,839
Speaker 2: When you're saying that people that haven't listened to everything

100
00:04:38,879 --> 00:04:41,839
have missed something. From day zero, Garrett told me, he's like,

101
00:04:41,879 --> 00:04:44,199
I want everything to be what we do will be cumulative.

102
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:46,279
And I was like, I had no idea what you meant,

103
00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:47,399
but we've dide exactly.

104
00:04:47,639 --> 00:04:48,959
Speaker 1: It was just more of a man. What did I

105
00:04:48,959 --> 00:04:49,519
get myself in?

106
00:04:49,680 --> 00:04:51,399
Speaker 2: No, Ryan, I was here to serve you and to

107
00:04:51,399 --> 00:04:53,040
serve the people that I knew need what you had

108
00:04:53,079 --> 00:04:55,360
to have. Obviously, I've grown a ton from that. So

109
00:04:55,360 --> 00:04:57,439
there a little nugget for anybody out there if you

110
00:04:57,480 --> 00:04:58,560
want to grow serve.

111
00:04:59,639 --> 00:05:02,199
Speaker 1: But I get it, we so much.

112
00:05:02,199 --> 00:05:03,720
Speaker 2: What we talked about in the beginning was like you

113
00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,000
need to like lay a foundation of Oh, we can't

114
00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:09,839
do this until you understand this, and principles as well.

115
00:05:09,879 --> 00:05:11,480
I think principles of all the things we teach in

116
00:05:11,519 --> 00:05:13,879
mindset master When we go way deeper in mindset mastery

117
00:05:13,920 --> 00:05:16,319
on principles than we're going to do today, I think

118
00:05:16,360 --> 00:05:18,639
this is the hardest thing for people to understand. I

119
00:05:18,680 --> 00:05:20,519
think what you talked like, it's just you can have

120
00:05:20,600 --> 00:05:23,120
multiple reps and people still are kind of like they're

121
00:05:23,120 --> 00:05:24,040
like scratching their head.

122
00:05:24,319 --> 00:05:25,759
Speaker 1: And so I'm really excited to get into this.

123
00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:27,519
Speaker 2: So gee, let me tell you a little story about

124
00:05:27,519 --> 00:05:28,800
where we see principles at work.

125
00:05:28,839 --> 00:05:30,959
Speaker 1: And of course I'm going to go to my beloved game.

126
00:05:30,879 --> 00:05:34,319
Speaker 2: Of baseball, because hey, dude, how cool is it that

127
00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,040
we just got to go do a babble.

128
00:05:35,759 --> 00:05:37,720
Speaker 1: Study with the Cleveland Guardians. That was a blast, that

129
00:05:37,759 --> 00:05:38,959
was amazing. So that was yesterday.

130
00:05:38,959 --> 00:05:41,600
Speaker 2: It's early the next morning. I'm still buzzing because for me,

131
00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:43,759
that was a dream come true. When we started this.

132
00:05:43,879 --> 00:05:45,519
In my mind, I was like, man, if we could

133
00:05:45,519 --> 00:05:47,399
get into Manchester United and give them some of the

134
00:05:47,439 --> 00:05:50,480
elite biblical mindset, imagine what that team could do. Now

135
00:05:50,480 --> 00:05:52,800
I'm waiting for that call, Michael Kerrick, you know, give

136
00:05:52,879 --> 00:05:53,199
us a call.

137
00:05:53,439 --> 00:05:55,560
Speaker 1: I'm it's you know, I love getting to do it.

138
00:05:55,920 --> 00:05:59,279
We got to have a short conversation about it. I've

139
00:05:59,279 --> 00:06:03,759
always been fascinated by this. Pops would say athlete atholete

140
00:06:06,160 --> 00:06:07,839
like golf is the one that I was most been

141
00:06:07,879 --> 00:06:11,639
most face fascinated with. But I do really love baseball

142
00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:14,800
for the intimidation factor of getting in the batter's box,

143
00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:16,839
because it's one of the things that I learned in

144
00:06:16,879 --> 00:06:18,879
the Seal teams is like the guys here who win

145
00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:21,920
aren't the guys with the best genetics. It's not the

146
00:06:21,959 --> 00:06:24,439
guys who have the best records in the past. It

147
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:27,600
is a mindset game, yep, right, And it's the same

148
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:30,399
thing I see at the highest level of athletics. It

149
00:06:30,439 --> 00:06:32,639
is a mindset. It is a massive mindset thing.

150
00:06:32,879 --> 00:06:34,600
Speaker 2: But you know what else goes along with mindset, Matt

151
00:06:34,680 --> 00:06:37,120
Gee is being able to do some work and understand

152
00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:38,879
how to navigate principles. So I'm gonna take you to

153
00:06:38,959 --> 00:06:40,759
a little story from a man that I've met a

154
00:06:40,759 --> 00:06:41,399
few times.

155
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,360
Speaker 1: Mookie Bets. I didn't know you've met MOOKI, oh multiple times.

156
00:06:44,360 --> 00:06:46,079
Speaker 2: I'm pretty sure I told you that you prabably forgot it,

157
00:06:46,240 --> 00:06:48,360
but I met I've met Mookie multiple times because he

158
00:06:48,399 --> 00:06:51,480
wore a product that I repped for years. And by

159
00:06:51,480 --> 00:06:53,839
the way, for the Cleveland Guardians, shout out to Patrick Bailey, Man,

160
00:06:53,920 --> 00:06:55,560
love you, bro. I know you're listening.

161
00:06:55,639 --> 00:06:55,759
Speaker 1: Man.

162
00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:58,600
Speaker 2: We are cheering for you, praying for you and expecting

163
00:06:58,839 --> 00:06:59,399
great things.

164
00:06:59,600 --> 00:06:59,720
Speaker 3: Right.

165
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,680
Speaker 1: No, the best is he had to come. The best

166
00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:04,079
is yet to come. He's a man of God.

167
00:07:04,639 --> 00:07:06,399
Speaker 2: So Patrick got traded in the Guardians, which is how

168
00:07:06,439 --> 00:07:08,560
we we got a connection with him, and he's he

169
00:07:08,720 --> 00:07:11,519
is a wonderful man of God. So and shouts all

170
00:07:11,519 --> 00:07:13,879
the other guys man, David Frye. We slayed like all

171
00:07:13,920 --> 00:07:15,720
those guys, man, it was so good to be with them.

172
00:07:15,759 --> 00:07:20,279
So anyways, Mookie Bets unbelievable athlete. He's bold three hundred

173
00:07:20,360 --> 00:07:23,439
multiple times he like talk about Bold Mook.

174
00:07:23,439 --> 00:07:24,600
Speaker 1: He's an MLB player, Bro.

175
00:07:24,720 --> 00:07:26,519
Speaker 2: This but he's one of these guys that he's good

176
00:07:26,519 --> 00:07:28,120
at ever I know, and I talked to him about it,

177
00:07:28,120 --> 00:07:29,439
and he seemed kind of bored about it.

178
00:07:29,439 --> 00:07:30,879
Speaker 1: Like I was like, dude, you both three hundred. He's

179
00:07:30,920 --> 00:07:32,279
kind of like, yeah, whatever, Like he's.

180
00:07:32,160 --> 00:07:34,439
Speaker 2: Just one of those dudes. He's just you can't he's

181
00:07:34,519 --> 00:07:36,759
but he's tiny, man. When you meet him, he's like

182
00:07:36,839 --> 00:07:40,079
five nine, like one sixty five. If he walked by

183
00:07:40,120 --> 00:07:42,680
you and you didn't know baseball, you would never guess, oh,

184
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:44,959
that's a pro athlete. But he is one of the

185
00:07:45,000 --> 00:07:47,839
greatest pro exactly, one of the most elites. So let

186
00:07:47,839 --> 00:07:50,279
me take you to the time whenever so so lots

187
00:07:50,279 --> 00:07:52,639
of talent, and anybody who's in the MLB has tons

188
00:07:52,639 --> 00:07:54,720
of talent. If you've made it to a professional to

189
00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:57,040
be a professional athlete, you know you're you're talented and

190
00:07:57,040 --> 00:07:57,839
you've got skills.

191
00:07:58,279 --> 00:07:59,279
Speaker 1: Twenty twenty four.

192
00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,680
Speaker 2: National League Division Series for the Dodgers. Right they're playing

193
00:08:02,720 --> 00:08:04,720
my beloved Padres, and I will be honest, I was

194
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,959
cheering against them. Mooki comes into the series with a

195
00:08:08,079 --> 00:08:11,519
riveting oh for twenty two. By the time they finished

196
00:08:11,519 --> 00:08:14,240
Game two, he's oh for twenty two. Dating back to

197
00:08:14,279 --> 00:08:14,959
the pressious.

198
00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:19,079
Speaker 1: That's that's such a wake up call for anybody that's

199
00:08:19,120 --> 00:08:22,600
been through a tough time of like Mooki is, like

200
00:08:22,680 --> 00:08:26,720
of athletes. Mooki's on a different category. Yeah, of athlete.

201
00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:28,319
I love that you're saying it with three syllables. He

202
00:08:28,360 --> 00:08:30,639
got especially for shout out got tops man, shout out

203
00:08:30,680 --> 00:08:33,399
to Mooki. Yeah, okay, and even a guy like Mooki

204
00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:36,120
to come in on a twenty two. Everybody goes through

205
00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,679
hard times, Yeah, exactly. And you know what's even worshti

206
00:08:38,840 --> 00:08:41,559
It dated to last year's playoffs. This is in the

207
00:08:41,559 --> 00:08:43,919
playoffs he was over twenty two. It dated the previous

208
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:46,039
year where they got eliminated in the NLDS.

209
00:08:46,200 --> 00:08:48,399
Speaker 2: Okay, so this dude comes in, goes through through the

210
00:08:48,440 --> 00:08:51,200
first round of the playoffs or no, he's in the NLDS,

211
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,519
not NLCS. So now he's back in the NLDS again

212
00:08:53,559 --> 00:08:55,759
in the twenty twenty four Okay, So that means that

213
00:08:55,759 --> 00:08:57,720
that they got eliminated in the first round previous year.

214
00:08:57,799 --> 00:08:59,840
He's come into this one and he's still not hitting.

215
00:09:00,200 --> 00:09:02,639
So in Game two he gets a home run robbed,

216
00:09:03,039 --> 00:09:05,639
which which was what completed his over twenty two. So

217
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:07,559
it's like nothing's going your way by Robb, Do you

218
00:09:07,600 --> 00:09:09,240
mean like like I caught it at the phone, jumped

219
00:09:09,279 --> 00:09:11,559
up over the fence and pulled it back so that ping.

220
00:09:11,759 --> 00:09:11,919
Speaker 1: Yeah.

221
00:09:11,960 --> 00:09:13,879
Speaker 2: At that point he's like, man, what nothing's going right

222
00:09:13,919 --> 00:09:15,759
for me? Okay, So they have an off day going

223
00:09:15,840 --> 00:09:18,200
into game three. Most guys on off days. Man, you're

224
00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,039
beat up. You've already played one hundred and sixty two

225
00:09:20,080 --> 00:09:21,720
games or whatever. You know, you probably didn't play all

226
00:09:21,759 --> 00:09:23,519
one sixty two, but you're beat up. Right, you're in

227
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:25,519
the playoffs. You're just trying to maintain your body. So

228
00:09:25,519 --> 00:09:26,519
what do you do on your off date?

229
00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:27,000
Speaker 1: You rest?

230
00:09:27,279 --> 00:09:30,320
Speaker 2: No, No, not Mookie. Mookie starts getting into the cage

231
00:09:30,360 --> 00:09:34,240
and he's hitting like hundreds of balls, soft toss off

232
00:09:34,279 --> 00:09:36,440
the tee out onto the field to get it off

233
00:09:36,480 --> 00:09:38,159
the pitching machine so he can see the velo. And

234
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:43,000
in between every session he's talking to his coach, repetition, repetition, repetition,

235
00:09:43,399 --> 00:09:45,799
doing the work, just over and over and over again,

236
00:09:46,120 --> 00:09:48,080
you know, trying to get it to feel right. What

237
00:09:48,120 --> 00:09:51,159
it turns out was that after doing I'm gonna say

238
00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:53,679
probably you know, I'll say hundreds of reps to be safe,

239
00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:55,399
because that was that was what they said. I remember

240
00:09:55,440 --> 00:09:56,799
watching it, and I remember when they were saying this.

241
00:09:56,840 --> 00:09:59,000
Even though I was cheering against him, I listened to

242
00:09:59,000 --> 00:10:00,679
what he was doing because I am standing principles.

243
00:10:00,720 --> 00:10:03,120
Speaker 1: I was like, I love what he's doing. It's not

244
00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:03,879
going right for him.

245
00:10:03,919 --> 00:10:06,440
Speaker 2: And instead of being like, oh man, hopefully this will

246
00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:08,519
get out, It's like, I know there's an answer, and

247
00:10:08,600 --> 00:10:10,960
I'm going to find it by doing as many repetitions

248
00:10:11,000 --> 00:10:14,519
as possible so I can discover what principle I'm violent.

249
00:10:14,440 --> 00:10:16,840
Speaker 1: The power of principles. Yep. So you know what happened.

250
00:10:16,879 --> 00:10:19,240
Speaker 2: Ge He does all these reps, and it turns out

251
00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:22,039
that what he discovered from all these different repetition working

252
00:10:22,039 --> 00:10:24,279
with his coach is that his hands when he was loading,

253
00:10:24,320 --> 00:10:26,840
which I don't understand the mechanics of baseball as deeply

254
00:10:26,879 --> 00:10:28,720
as these pro guys, but I do no. Load is

255
00:10:28,759 --> 00:10:30,600
what you're doing as the ball's coming in. So like

256
00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,440
guys will start with their hand right, your hands may

257
00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,720
start in one position, but your load position is back

258
00:10:35,720 --> 00:10:37,720
where you actually start the power of your swing right.

259
00:10:37,799 --> 00:10:39,240
And what he found was that his hands were not

260
00:10:39,240 --> 00:10:42,200
getting into the ideal launch position, very minor thing. But

261
00:10:42,279 --> 00:10:43,720
like when you do that many reps and they have

262
00:10:43,759 --> 00:10:45,480
all the cameras and you have a coach watching.

263
00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:47,639
Speaker 1: You, you start picking like above his shoulder versus behind

264
00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:49,799
his should right, or whatever it may be.

265
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,919
Speaker 2: So finally they get that. So what happens He starts

266
00:10:52,919 --> 00:10:54,240
getting the cage. And when you get in the cage,

267
00:10:54,279 --> 00:10:55,960
if you can start to push the ball opposite field

268
00:10:56,000 --> 00:10:58,559
on purpose, like that's that's like whenever you're hitting, because

269
00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:00,679
now you're controlling where the ball we're the ball is going.

270
00:11:00,840 --> 00:11:01,960
Speaker 1: So he starts getting that feel.

271
00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:05,600
Speaker 2: Game three comes out, boom, first at bat, home run,

272
00:11:05,879 --> 00:11:08,559
second at back, big dog boom single. Third at bat,

273
00:11:08,960 --> 00:11:10,720
hits the ball ninety seven miles per hour. It gets

274
00:11:10,720 --> 00:11:12,559
put out, but a ninety seven mile prior ex if

275
00:11:12,600 --> 00:11:14,720
you you hit the ball on the screws. Fourth at bat,

276
00:11:14,759 --> 00:11:16,960
line out. So he goes two for four, comes back

277
00:11:17,000 --> 00:11:20,399
into and they win the game. Game four comes back in, boom,

278
00:11:20,519 --> 00:11:23,480
home run again. Mookie's back out of the slump carries

279
00:11:23,519 --> 00:11:25,639
into the World Series. Well, I mean, what's the point

280
00:11:25,639 --> 00:11:28,279
of that story? A guy who already knew some things

281
00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,120
to be true, instead of getting upset about what was happening,

282
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:32,519
took it his feedback.

283
00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:35,080
Speaker 1: And a guy who people would say is like beyond

284
00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:39,200
exceptionally gifted, like gilded or anointed, like this guy's special

285
00:11:39,879 --> 00:11:42,320
when he wasn't, when it wasn't working for him, Why,

286
00:11:42,440 --> 00:11:44,799
It's because he was missing a principle, right, and so

287
00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,519
what do you do? He got to work to find it.

288
00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:50,240
We're going to talk about principles, both tangible and tangible. Right.

289
00:11:50,919 --> 00:11:54,799
There's like mechanic, like mechanics of baseball. There's principles there. Yeah.

290
00:11:54,919 --> 00:11:58,200
The one I love to use is flight. Yeah, right, lift,

291
00:11:58,240 --> 00:12:00,480
thrust weight, and drag. When you get these right, you

292
00:12:00,519 --> 00:12:02,879
can make a house I mean a plane that weighs

293
00:12:02,919 --> 00:12:05,320
more than a house fly. When you don't, that thing

294
00:12:05,399 --> 00:12:08,279
stays stuck on the ground. YEA. Back in the day

295
00:12:08,320 --> 00:12:10,480
when they didn't understand flight, they thought if we could

296
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:13,000
just make the plane lighter, we could get it to fly,

297
00:12:13,120 --> 00:12:15,639
which is semi true, but it's only one of the principles.

298
00:12:15,679 --> 00:12:19,000
You got to get lifts, thrust weight, and drag correct,

299
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:22,120
then you can make something fly. So there are tangible

300
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:26,399
principles like mechanics of baseball or principles of flight. There

301
00:12:26,440 --> 00:12:31,840
are also intangible principles, leadership, growth, relationships, all of these things,

302
00:12:32,080 --> 00:12:35,159
and they operate the same way. And that's where, like you,

303
00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,000
if you want to be a Mookie Bets of a

304
00:12:38,039 --> 00:12:40,279
baseball player in life where it's like, man, how does

305
00:12:40,320 --> 00:12:43,039
this dude just like bowl three hundred all the time? Well,

306
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:46,440
when you understand principles, when you understand what governs outcomes,

307
00:12:46,440 --> 00:12:48,919
it's like, well, if I just do this, this, and this,

308
00:12:49,120 --> 00:12:51,080
I will get this result. Yeah.

309
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:53,559
Speaker 2: And so the question for everybody out there is where

310
00:12:53,559 --> 00:12:55,440
are you feeling stuck? Because this is really the power

311
00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,759
of this episode and the power of principles. Where in

312
00:12:57,799 --> 00:12:59,679
life are you not getting a result and you want

313
00:12:59,679 --> 00:13:01,639
to get a better result, or you're getting the results

314
00:13:01,679 --> 00:13:05,080
you don't want, you are one hundred percent missing a principle. So,

315
00:13:05,159 --> 00:13:07,399
rather than getting frustrated and blamed it on other people

316
00:13:07,480 --> 00:13:10,639
or telling yourself whatever story, understand the same way that

317
00:13:10,679 --> 00:13:12,679
MOOKI got back in the cage, you need to get

318
00:13:12,679 --> 00:13:14,279
back into the game and realize that you got some

319
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:14,799
work to do.

320
00:13:15,039 --> 00:13:17,399
Speaker 1: So we're talking about how they work. Let's just you know,

321
00:13:17,480 --> 00:13:20,440
start with some simple foundation here, some definition of our principles.

322
00:13:20,480 --> 00:13:24,279
What are principles? Okay, understand that God created an orderly world.

323
00:13:24,360 --> 00:13:26,519
Praise the Lord, right, and that this is the story

324
00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:29,440
of Genesis. God divided the land from the water. God

325
00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,559
divided the day from the night. God the sun rises

326
00:13:32,559 --> 00:13:35,919
in the sun sets. We'll talk more about this. How

327
00:13:35,919 --> 00:13:38,919
do you discover principles? It's through patterns. Right. If you

328
00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:42,799
were born like I was, in the Alaskan bush, raised

329
00:13:42,840 --> 00:13:46,200
by wolves, then I'm glad you finally revealed the truth.

330
00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,840
Bro well done. And you know you didn't grow up

331
00:13:48,840 --> 00:13:51,519
with a book and people telling you how things work. Well,

332
00:13:51,559 --> 00:13:54,600
how would you discover how things work through patterns? Well? Man,

333
00:13:54,639 --> 00:13:57,879
the sun continually rises in sunsets, but the sun also

334
00:13:57,960 --> 00:14:00,639
rises in different places and sets in different places. It

335
00:14:00,639 --> 00:14:03,200
gets cold in some seasons, it gets warm in some seasons.

336
00:14:03,399 --> 00:14:06,399
And you begin to realize things are governed by a

337
00:14:06,399 --> 00:14:10,080
certain order. Everything in life is governed by order. It's

338
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:13,000
not just like some chance of Now, chance is what

339
00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:16,639
you see when you zoom in on a world of order. Right.

340
00:14:16,720 --> 00:14:19,519
For example, you flip a coin, you're like, man, it's

341
00:14:19,639 --> 00:14:22,399
chance that it goes this way or it goes this way. Well,

342
00:14:22,440 --> 00:14:24,919
when you examine millions of coin tosses, you see that

343
00:14:25,000 --> 00:14:27,480
it is not chance. Right, There's an order that governs

344
00:14:27,519 --> 00:14:31,600
the world. Everything operates this way. So when you're frustrated

345
00:14:31,639 --> 00:14:33,759
by something, when you don't know why things are going

346
00:14:33,799 --> 00:14:36,720
the way that they're going, it's because you're missing a principle.

347
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:41,519
The specific definition that we give to principles is principles

348
00:14:41,879 --> 00:14:44,879
govern outcomes. Right, So there are things that you can

349
00:14:44,919 --> 00:14:48,200
do to influence principles, but you cannot break a principle.

350
00:14:48,559 --> 00:14:50,879
It's like gravity, right, And I just did a message

351
00:14:50,919 --> 00:14:54,480
about this this weekend of there is gravity, and you

352
00:14:54,519 --> 00:14:57,480
can't break gravity, but you can operate in a higher principle,

353
00:14:57,639 --> 00:15:00,720
which is lift. Lift allows you to overcome grad And

354
00:15:00,799 --> 00:15:03,919
so then when you learn how to utilize principles, when

355
00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,440
you learn the limitations, when you learn the rules of

356
00:15:06,480 --> 00:15:08,840
the game, then you learn how to rise above them. Yeah.

357
00:15:09,279 --> 00:15:11,879
Speaker 2: Like G said, principles are the forces that produce outcomes.

358
00:15:11,960 --> 00:15:13,960
I like to think of them like waves, because if

359
00:15:14,000 --> 00:15:16,080
you've ever paddled out in the ocean and you get

360
00:15:16,360 --> 00:15:19,000
like you're going directly into the wave, dude, it like

361
00:15:19,039 --> 00:15:21,080
even if you duck dive or whatever it is, you're

362
00:15:21,080 --> 00:15:24,200
going to get smacked. You're not advancing forward. Whereas whenever

363
00:15:24,200 --> 00:15:26,919
you turn around and ride that wave. Oh man, it's

364
00:15:26,960 --> 00:15:29,679
the greatest feeling. So like, when you're aware of principles,

365
00:15:30,039 --> 00:15:32,200
you know how to navigate them and create predictable outcomes.

366
00:15:32,240 --> 00:15:34,960
When you're not, they are the frustrations you bump into.

367
00:15:34,960 --> 00:15:39,039
Speaker 1: And some scriptures that reflect or show principles in the

368
00:15:39,039 --> 00:15:42,799
Bible Genesis chapter eight, verse twenty two. While the earth remains.

369
00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:47,639
While the earth remains, this is God speaking, Yeah, seed,

370
00:15:47,720 --> 00:15:52,759
time and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day

371
00:15:52,919 --> 00:15:56,360
and night shall not cease. Right. God is saying, there's

372
00:15:56,399 --> 00:15:58,919
an order, there's a structure to this. It's not going away.

373
00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:02,480
And one of my favorite scriptures. Man, I know some

374
00:16:02,519 --> 00:16:04,879
of the folks from my team at Union and people

375
00:16:04,879 --> 00:16:07,639
in that world listen to this. I've been talking about

376
00:16:07,639 --> 00:16:09,720
this one and I've been preaching this one. This is

377
00:16:09,759 --> 00:16:15,759
Galatians chapter six, verse seven. Do not be deceived. God

378
00:16:16,080 --> 00:16:19,600
is not mocked. For whatever one shows that he will

379
00:16:19,639 --> 00:16:23,039
also reap. God will not be mocked. A man reaps

380
00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,600
what he sows. Right, if you do the right things,

381
00:16:25,639 --> 00:16:27,720
if you put the seed in the ground at the

382
00:16:27,759 --> 00:16:29,960
right time of year, you water it correctly, it's going

383
00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:32,840
to grow. It's not personal. The seed doesn't have a

384
00:16:32,879 --> 00:16:35,279
bad attitude. It doesn't matter if the seed likes you,

385
00:16:35,480 --> 00:16:37,000
doesn't matter if it's a good day or not. It

386
00:16:37,000 --> 00:16:39,879
doesn't matter if you're a quote unquote lucky person, doesn't

387
00:16:39,919 --> 00:16:42,360
matter whatever. If you do the right things in the

388
00:16:42,440 --> 00:16:44,720
right order, you will get the right results. And so

389
00:16:44,759 --> 00:16:47,279
we're going to talk about not just what principles are today,

390
00:16:47,480 --> 00:16:51,000
but how to have that principle's mindset that makes you

391
00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:53,159
someone who's like a Mookie bets who. It's like, you

392
00:16:53,159 --> 00:16:55,440
know what, maybe I go through a slump, but in

393
00:16:55,519 --> 00:16:58,600
the end I will win. I am unbeatable, Yeah, because

394
00:16:58,600 --> 00:16:59,840
I know how to get my hands in the right

395
00:16:59,840 --> 00:17:02,039
place position to put this ball over the fence.

396
00:17:02,120 --> 00:17:04,039
Speaker 2: When I've heard you say, you said on this podcast

397
00:17:04,039 --> 00:17:06,920
many times, you say what you take great comfort in

398
00:17:07,279 --> 00:17:09,359
is that you know that God created a principled, orderly

399
00:17:09,400 --> 00:17:10,839
world because what will happen?

400
00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:13,440
Speaker 1: And I find it's my greatest encouragement. I don't need

401
00:17:13,799 --> 00:17:16,480
like because life would be what would be really terrible

402
00:17:16,519 --> 00:17:18,599
to me if it's like, man, I did all the

403
00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:20,880
right right now. This is when you feel like your

404
00:17:20,880 --> 00:17:23,480
life is terrible, Yeah, you're like, I did all the

405
00:17:23,559 --> 00:17:25,960
right things, and I just got all the wrong results, right,

406
00:17:26,440 --> 00:17:28,720
that is, you know, and it is true. It is true,

407
00:17:28,720 --> 00:17:32,240
and it's possible. And I like using the analogy or

408
00:17:32,279 --> 00:17:36,079
the context of agriculture because it's just such a great

409
00:17:36,079 --> 00:17:38,039
report and the Bible uses it so much. Our farmers

410
00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:40,640
keep shouting out to us like I wish, I wish

411
00:17:40,680 --> 00:17:44,319
I was more educated around agriculture. I'm such a layman

412
00:17:44,359 --> 00:17:46,240
as it relates so far. They said, we've not said

413
00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,359
anything that's okay because I want to know that. Yeah,

414
00:17:48,960 --> 00:17:50,599
those of you who do know, please let us know.

415
00:17:50,759 --> 00:17:52,759
And I think I know where that line is for

416
00:17:52,839 --> 00:17:55,680
me where I'm talking. But anyways, you can have something

417
00:17:55,759 --> 00:17:58,799
happen like in agriculture where you did everything right, you

418
00:17:58,880 --> 00:18:01,839
sowed you sod seed correctly, and it starts to come

419
00:18:01,880 --> 00:18:04,799
up out of the ground and hail comes and destroys

420
00:18:04,839 --> 00:18:08,000
your crop. Now that that is chance, right, But you

421
00:18:08,039 --> 00:18:10,359
know again, if you zoom in on that, if you

422
00:18:10,440 --> 00:18:12,400
zoom in on the one time that hell destroyed your crop,

423
00:18:12,440 --> 00:18:14,920
it's like, man, God just hates me far everything's work.

424
00:18:15,039 --> 00:18:16,759
But you know what, you know what hale is like

425
00:18:16,799 --> 00:18:18,759
people who moved to Texas to talk to folks moving

426
00:18:18,759 --> 00:18:20,680
to Texas about hell like, oh it, hell's all the time.

427
00:18:20,720 --> 00:18:24,200
They're like like, what like, but not everywhere? Right, It's like,

428
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:26,839
you know, it's like if you go to a concert

429
00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,519
and you spit and hit, try to hit somebody that's

430
00:18:29,720 --> 00:18:34,680
you know, hale in DFW. The lord's spit well like

431
00:18:34,720 --> 00:18:36,759
it does hail, but it's like it haild on that

432
00:18:36,799 --> 00:18:39,799
one neighborhood r hood in Weatherford, right, like it didn't

433
00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:42,319
hit our house. Right now, I will say I bought

434
00:18:42,319 --> 00:18:45,000
my house in twenty eighteen and within a month of

435
00:18:45,039 --> 00:18:47,440
moving in, my house got held on, which is great,

436
00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:49,440
brand new roof. Go ahead and fix all that stuff.

437
00:18:49,640 --> 00:18:51,880
Get that out of the way. Oh nice, hasn't held

438
00:18:51,920 --> 00:18:53,480
on my house since I've been here for six years.

439
00:18:53,519 --> 00:18:56,160
We haven't. We haven't had anything. So anyways, the point

440
00:18:56,160 --> 00:18:59,440
that I'm making is you can do everything right, and yeah,

441
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:01,240
every once in a while, well maybe hale hits your

442
00:19:01,240 --> 00:19:03,319
crop and it gets destroyed, but it's not going to

443
00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,279
hit it again the next year and the next year

444
00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,440
and the next year, and maybe you can feel it, well,

445
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:09,640
well this happened, and then this happened. If you can

446
00:19:09,680 --> 00:19:11,759
get all the principles right, you're not going to get

447
00:19:11,759 --> 00:19:14,359
hailed on every single year. It just doesn't work that way.

448
00:19:14,440 --> 00:19:14,680
Speaker 3: Yeah.

449
00:19:14,759 --> 00:19:17,640
Speaker 1: May and maybe by some crazy chance, you're the point

450
00:19:17,759 --> 00:19:20,279
zero zero one percent that your crop got hailed on

451
00:19:20,319 --> 00:19:22,680
two years in a row. Well, it's not going to happen. Three,

452
00:19:22,720 --> 00:19:26,039
it's not going to happen. Four. Continue to leverage principles

453
00:19:26,359 --> 00:19:29,440
to work for you, not against you, and that's where

454
00:19:29,480 --> 00:19:32,720
you become an unbeatable person. So it's just understanding, if

455
00:19:32,759 --> 00:19:34,880
I do the right things in the right order, I'm

456
00:19:34,880 --> 00:19:37,480
going to get the right result. It's the greatest encouragement

457
00:19:37,519 --> 00:19:39,960
to me in life. Would be terrible if it's like, Man,

458
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:43,160
I did everything, I know what the science says, but

459
00:19:43,599 --> 00:19:45,880
God just didn't feel like growing the seed today. God

460
00:19:45,920 --> 00:19:46,720
doesn't work that way.

461
00:19:46,839 --> 00:19:49,799
Speaker 2: Yeah, as is like we said, it creates predictable outcomes.

462
00:19:49,839 --> 00:19:51,920
It doesn't mean that you can like you can say

463
00:19:52,000 --> 00:19:53,920
you're not going to bat a thousand, but you can say, man,

464
00:19:53,960 --> 00:19:55,640
more times than not, I know what's going to happen.

465
00:19:56,000 --> 00:19:57,640
So what principles will do for you? And we said

466
00:19:57,640 --> 00:19:59,279
it without saying so. I just want to be really clear.

467
00:19:59,599 --> 00:20:02,640
And who doesn't want this g certainty and confidence? How

468
00:20:02,640 --> 00:20:04,400
many people would love to be able to be in

469
00:20:04,440 --> 00:20:06,440
their situations. When we were prepping for this, I was

470
00:20:06,440 --> 00:20:08,200
telling you that because I have so many reps with

471
00:20:08,279 --> 00:20:10,519
so many companies as at ten years as a marketing consultant,

472
00:20:10,799 --> 00:20:12,559
I'm at the point now when people approach me to

473
00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:15,079
ask me for help before I even talk to them

474
00:20:15,200 --> 00:20:17,079
or want to work with them. I know, what's your product,

475
00:20:17,119 --> 00:20:18,400
let me look at it, and I go look at

476
00:20:18,400 --> 00:20:20,759
their thing and at whatever they're trying to sell. And

477
00:20:20,799 --> 00:20:22,359
because I know what I bring to the table, and

478
00:20:22,359 --> 00:20:25,119
I also know principles, I know whether this thing's going

479
00:20:25,160 --> 00:20:27,119
to work or be a pain straight away. And I'll

480
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:29,240
be honest, I don't remember the last time I was wrong.

481
00:20:29,319 --> 00:20:31,319
That's not because I'm perfect, but I'm starting to I'm

482
00:20:31,319 --> 00:20:33,519
starting to be able to recognize whether things are viable

483
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:34,319
very early on.

484
00:20:34,839 --> 00:20:37,960
Speaker 1: It's you know, scripture says, I believe it's read letters,

485
00:20:38,039 --> 00:20:41,640
but I could be incorrect here, but scripture says, rain

486
00:20:41,759 --> 00:20:46,039
falls on the just and the unjust Jesus right, And okay,

487
00:20:46,119 --> 00:20:48,160
So if rain falls on the just and the unjust,

488
00:20:48,240 --> 00:20:50,720
I want to give you this perspective as well, right,

489
00:20:50,720 --> 00:20:52,480
Because one of the things we talk about a lot,

490
00:20:53,400 --> 00:20:55,920
almost as much as principles, or equally as much as

491
00:20:55,960 --> 00:20:58,599
principles is identity, right, you got to know that you

492
00:20:58,759 --> 00:21:01,119
are a son of God, like God puts you on

493
00:21:01,160 --> 00:21:02,759
the earth for a reason. God is a plan for

494
00:21:02,759 --> 00:21:04,839
your life. God wants to do something through you. It's

495
00:21:04,839 --> 00:21:06,799
certainly not that God's like mad at you or like

496
00:21:06,799 --> 00:21:09,079
I'm gonna make sure he can't get anything right. Okay,

497
00:21:09,319 --> 00:21:12,200
So rain falls on the just and the unjust. That

498
00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:14,880
means like there there is no bias to it. There is.

499
00:21:14,920 --> 00:21:17,480
God doesn't have a personal preference, Like if you get

500
00:21:17,480 --> 00:21:20,559
the principles right, Rain's gonna fall on you. What that

501
00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,480
also means is just because you have a great relationship

502
00:21:23,480 --> 00:21:25,119
with God doesn't mean the math is going to work

503
00:21:25,119 --> 00:21:28,440
for you. You have to understand principles right. And you know,

504
00:21:28,519 --> 00:21:31,000
as it relates to baseball, since we're talking about baseball today,

505
00:21:31,240 --> 00:21:33,319
you could have a deep relationship with God or I

506
00:21:33,319 --> 00:21:36,359
can put myself in the box. I've got a great mindset,

507
00:21:36,440 --> 00:21:38,640
I got a deep relationship with the Lord. That doesn't

508
00:21:38,680 --> 00:21:40,200
mean I know how to put the bat on the ball.

509
00:21:40,799 --> 00:21:43,680
There's principles to that, and you can also be a

510
00:21:45,640 --> 00:21:48,519
godless baseball player. And if you get the mechanics, right,

511
00:21:48,559 --> 00:21:49,839
you're going to learn how to put the bat on

512
00:21:49,880 --> 00:21:52,559
the ball. What you're gonna miss is you're gonna miss favor.

513
00:21:52,759 --> 00:21:55,079
And then also ultimately, and this is like the way

514
00:21:55,079 --> 00:21:57,720
I'm living my life is I think, don't You're not

515
00:21:57,759 --> 00:21:59,599
set up. You don't have the foundation to have the

516
00:21:59,599 --> 00:22:02,400
greatest possible mindset, right because those players who do have

517
00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:05,160
all the mechanics, when they are missing it, they don't

518
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:07,880
know who they are. I do. And that's your leverage,

519
00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:10,680
superpower against That's how you compete against the people. That's

520
00:22:10,720 --> 00:22:12,920
why I want to see, you know, people who are

521
00:22:12,920 --> 00:22:15,640
followers of Christ continue to win in every arena because

522
00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:17,920
you have something that those who you fight against don't have.

523
00:22:18,119 --> 00:22:21,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, so good man, And so going back to that,

524
00:22:21,160 --> 00:22:22,720
and we're gonna we're gonna go a little deeper into

525
00:22:22,720 --> 00:22:24,519
what you said, because we're gonna we're gonna talk about

526
00:22:24,519 --> 00:22:26,480
what they'll do for you, what will make them hard

527
00:22:26,519 --> 00:22:28,160
to discover, and then what it takes to discover them.

528
00:22:28,200 --> 00:22:30,359
Then we're gonna actually give you an application. But like

529
00:22:30,400 --> 00:22:32,599
I said, they'll give you certainty and confidence because like

530
00:22:32,640 --> 00:22:35,039
you said, you take great confidence. The certainty you have

531
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:38,079
is that there's always an answer, like if principles govern

532
00:22:38,119 --> 00:22:40,200
the results, and there's a result you want that you're

533
00:22:40,240 --> 00:22:42,599
not getting, all that means is that you just haven't

534
00:22:42,640 --> 00:22:43,599
discovered the principle.

535
00:22:43,759 --> 00:22:46,640
Speaker 1: What an encouragement. One of the things that I've said

536
00:22:46,680 --> 00:22:48,759
that that Nick really likes. He's pointed out to me,

537
00:22:48,960 --> 00:22:51,480
Nick's a highlighter for me. For me sometimes right like

538
00:22:51,559 --> 00:22:54,160
Nick likes to be. That's that's what Nick says, like

539
00:22:54,200 --> 00:22:57,160
he's a he's a highlighter, Yeah for me, but sometimes

540
00:22:57,160 --> 00:22:58,839
he does it for me like he says what I

541
00:22:58,839 --> 00:23:01,440
said back to him like that that you know, I'm

542
00:23:01,039 --> 00:23:03,720
not trying to like no, I lost myself up, but

543
00:23:03,799 --> 00:23:06,359
sometimes you're like, I'm like, yeah, that I haven't focused.

544
00:23:06,880 --> 00:23:08,799
I just say stuff and I'm like, I should focus

545
00:23:08,839 --> 00:23:10,359
on that more. That actually is that is a good

546
00:23:10,400 --> 00:23:13,039
thought of One of the things I've said to Nick

547
00:23:13,119 --> 00:23:15,359
before has said, Look, I'm not a person. I don't

548
00:23:15,359 --> 00:23:17,400
think I could ever be a person that knows everything,

549
00:23:17,759 --> 00:23:19,720
but I do think it's possible, and the type of

550
00:23:19,720 --> 00:23:21,319
person I want to be, I want to be someone

551
00:23:21,359 --> 00:23:23,839
who can figure anything out right, and that's someone who

552
00:23:23,920 --> 00:23:28,200
knows how to identify and set up principles for success. Right.

553
00:23:28,720 --> 00:23:32,640
What the great thing that a principle's understanding and a

554
00:23:32,680 --> 00:23:34,480
principal's mindset gives you, This is what we're talking about

555
00:23:34,519 --> 00:23:37,920
right now, is that it gives you certainty when you man.

556
00:23:37,960 --> 00:23:40,319
It's scary to get into business if you don't know

557
00:23:40,319 --> 00:23:42,519
how to make money. It's scary to get into business

558
00:23:42,559 --> 00:23:44,119
if you don't know how to make a sale. One

559
00:23:44,160 --> 00:23:48,240
of Nick's giftings is around marketing and online sales. Nick

560
00:23:48,319 --> 00:23:50,440
knows this stuff really well, and he can look at

561
00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:52,799
something and say this will or will not succeed. You

562
00:23:52,839 --> 00:23:54,960
can or you can't sell this, And I would say

563
00:23:54,960 --> 00:23:57,039
sell for a profhit. You can sell anything, right, you

564
00:23:57,079 --> 00:24:00,200
can necessarily sell it for a profhit R correct when

565
00:24:00,240 --> 00:24:02,759
you know, like if I do this and this, I'm

566
00:24:02,759 --> 00:24:06,160
going to get this result. That certainty or clinton near

567
00:24:06,279 --> 00:24:09,440
certainty is one of the greatest confidences that you can have.

568
00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:14,079
Principles doesn't mean doesn't mean that you can predict the future,

569
00:24:14,599 --> 00:24:17,079
but you're going to have a high likelihood of what

570
00:24:17,119 --> 00:24:21,119
outcomes look like because it governs outcomes. But ultimately what

571
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:24,440
governs all outcomes is God. Yeah. God is sovereign. Yeah,

572
00:24:24,480 --> 00:24:28,200
principles are not sovereign principles play a great piece of

573
00:24:28,240 --> 00:24:30,319
God's ultimate math. Yeah, for sure.

574
00:24:30,920 --> 00:24:32,319
Speaker 2: And the reason I just want to say why I

575
00:24:32,359 --> 00:24:34,200
loved the becoming the type of person that could figure

576
00:24:34,200 --> 00:24:36,319
anything out because you got to remember, we talked a

577
00:24:36,319 --> 00:24:39,160
couple episodes ago about how this podcast started, and I

578
00:24:39,200 --> 00:24:41,920
talked about my own journey of like stepping into identity

579
00:24:42,279 --> 00:24:44,359
at the time when I'm sat across from you and

580
00:24:44,400 --> 00:24:46,279
I'm like, Dude, this guy knows how to do so

581
00:24:46,359 --> 00:24:48,839
many things, Like you're a very capable person. G Like

582
00:24:48,880 --> 00:24:50,440
you could drop you in the middle of the desert.

583
00:24:50,480 --> 00:24:53,039
Speaker 1: For a long time, I have desired to be useful, right,

584
00:24:53,200 --> 00:24:55,119
acquired a set of skills along the way.

585
00:24:55,200 --> 00:24:57,720
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you also acquired these skills from the greatest

586
00:24:57,880 --> 00:25:00,880
organization in the world, the Seal Teams. I'm saying that

587
00:25:00,880 --> 00:25:02,480
that they are the greatest because they have a track

588
00:25:02,519 --> 00:25:04,759
record that it's not down to one person or leadership.

589
00:25:04,839 --> 00:25:06,720
These guys have actually cracked what it takes to produce

590
00:25:06,759 --> 00:25:09,440
elite on a regular basis, and you got trained by them.

591
00:25:09,559 --> 00:25:11,519
So I'm say you're going like, if you have to

592
00:25:11,519 --> 00:25:13,640
be the type of person that knows everything, then I'm

593
00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:16,799
screwed because like they don't take geriatric seals and I

594
00:25:16,839 --> 00:25:18,240
don't have the money to be able to go pay

595
00:25:18,279 --> 00:25:19,599
for all the schools that I would need to to

596
00:25:19,599 --> 00:25:21,480
get the level of training you did. And that's why

597
00:25:21,599 --> 00:25:24,039
I'm highlighting this for people out there, because it did

598
00:25:24,079 --> 00:25:25,799
when you start to go, I don't need to be

599
00:25:25,799 --> 00:25:27,640
the person that knows everything. I need to be the

600
00:25:27,680 --> 00:25:29,640
type of person that can figure anything out.

601
00:25:29,920 --> 00:25:30,440
Speaker 1: What does that do?

602
00:25:30,599 --> 00:25:32,799
Speaker 2: It creates a very different belief because if I have

603
00:25:32,839 --> 00:25:34,359
to be the person that knows everything, it's already too

604
00:25:34,440 --> 00:25:36,119
late for me, right, Like, maybe this is how you

605
00:25:36,160 --> 00:25:38,440
think if you don't have identity, because I don't have

606
00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:39,839
what you have. But if I just have to be

607
00:25:39,880 --> 00:25:42,440
the type of person that can figure out, well, that's capability,

608
00:25:42,440 --> 00:25:45,240
that's potential. Great, I can learn anything. I can discover

609
00:25:45,319 --> 00:25:48,279
the principles. Now, that encourages belief. And whether you think

610
00:25:48,279 --> 00:25:49,240
you can or you think you can't.

611
00:25:49,240 --> 00:25:50,960
Speaker 1: Gee, it's the difference between trying to be a know

612
00:25:51,039 --> 00:25:52,720
it all and being a problem solver. Correct.

613
00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:56,119
Speaker 2: Yeah, And so that was hugely encouraging for me, and

614
00:25:56,119 --> 00:25:58,119
so I hope that's encouraging for Everybraille's and the confidence

615
00:25:58,240 --> 00:26:00,680
you said, man, like how much to the point you

616
00:26:00,720 --> 00:26:03,640
made earlier about how it would be really terrible if

617
00:26:03,680 --> 00:26:05,519
you were like, well, I planted and did things right,

618
00:26:05,799 --> 00:26:07,200
and then like it just didn't work out, and I

619
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:08,279
don't know why there was no hail.

620
00:26:08,319 --> 00:26:09,680
Speaker 1: It just decided not to grow this year.

621
00:26:10,160 --> 00:26:12,720
Speaker 2: The confidence you feel and like whenever you understand principles

622
00:26:12,839 --> 00:26:15,359
is that now you have an element of control, like like,

623
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:17,839
once again, if my business starts to decline, I know

624
00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:20,079
the principles of how of marketing in order to get

625
00:26:20,119 --> 00:26:22,720
myself more business. So I have no fear like I

626
00:26:22,759 --> 00:26:24,960
was talking about, like in my industry, whenever you're in

627
00:26:25,240 --> 00:26:27,319
whenever you're like you have your own business. One of

628
00:26:27,359 --> 00:26:29,839
people's greatest fears is that the business is going to

629
00:26:30,079 --> 00:26:32,000
start to decline and they're gonna be like ugh and

630
00:26:32,039 --> 00:26:34,119
not know what to do, especially if you're like depending

631
00:26:34,160 --> 00:26:37,440
on word of mouth. That's very hard to Uh, you

632
00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:41,160
can't control that as much, right, right, You can't influence something.

633
00:26:41,200 --> 00:26:43,720
That's a whole another conversation. What gives you confidence is

634
00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:45,160
when you know what to do because you go, look,

635
00:26:45,240 --> 00:26:46,920
I know that if I start doing this, I don't

636
00:26:46,920 --> 00:26:48,839
know when it's gonna come, but it will come.

637
00:26:49,400 --> 00:26:51,759
Speaker 1: And it's an element of control. It's confidence. Yeah, and

638
00:26:51,799 --> 00:26:55,359
it's what to people who don't understand, it appears like magic. Right.

639
00:26:55,440 --> 00:26:58,039
You can say, watch this, yeah, watch this, yeah if

640
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:00,240
because when you say, I know, if I do this,

641
00:27:00,319 --> 00:27:02,640
then I will get this outcome correct. I remember we

642
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:05,319
were at batting practice yesterday. We were and I watched

643
00:27:05,839 --> 00:27:07,480
You'll be able to tell me his names. I don't

644
00:27:07,519 --> 00:27:09,599
know all their names, but a lot of the players

645
00:27:09,680 --> 00:27:12,920
they'd get in there and they hit, they'd hit, hit, hit,

646
00:27:13,559 --> 00:27:16,799
and then they finally like slot one and put it

647
00:27:16,799 --> 00:27:19,559
over the fence and they're like, okay, I'm good and

648
00:27:19,640 --> 00:27:22,200
they're done with BP. One of the guys for the Rangers,

649
00:27:22,200 --> 00:27:25,160
I noticed a bigger guy. He did it three times

650
00:27:25,160 --> 00:27:28,599
in a row where he got in there and hit, hit, hit,

651
00:27:28,759 --> 00:27:30,759
and then he hits like two three over the fence,

652
00:27:31,039 --> 00:27:33,920
got out, walked, done Okay, But then he came back

653
00:27:33,960 --> 00:27:35,359
and he did it again. And he came back and

654
00:27:35,400 --> 00:27:38,440
he did it again, and that's like, no, I actually

655
00:27:38,519 --> 00:27:41,079
know how to produce this. A lot of people they

656
00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,039
hit the one over the fence, and I'm not getting

657
00:27:43,039 --> 00:27:45,319
any of the players that did that. Remember just helping

658
00:27:45,359 --> 00:27:47,440
you see, like when you know, like, not only can

659
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:48,960
I do it one time, I can do it twice,

660
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:50,640
I can do it three times. Watch this.

661
00:27:51,240 --> 00:27:54,319
Speaker 2: That's what confidence feels like. And in this particular case,

662
00:27:54,519 --> 00:27:56,359
it was it was BP. It was when it was

663
00:27:56,440 --> 00:27:58,559
in and up over the plate. I mean he was

664
00:27:58,640 --> 00:28:02,079
hitting absolute news like second deck, like deep into the

665
00:28:02,079 --> 00:28:02,599
second deck.

666
00:28:02,640 --> 00:28:04,200
Speaker 1: I thought he hit it third deck on one of them.

667
00:28:04,240 --> 00:28:06,000
He was crushing it. It was just on a side note.

668
00:28:06,279 --> 00:28:08,880
Speaker 2: So, but yeah, exactly, that's exactly right, because now it's like, okay,

669
00:28:08,920 --> 00:28:11,359
I know when this pitch is here, it's automatic.

670
00:28:11,440 --> 00:28:13,640
Speaker 1: If you if you didn't pick up the principles from

671
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,359
your process, get up there and swing a thousand times,

672
00:28:16,359 --> 00:28:18,559
you might finally slot one, but you don't know how

673
00:28:18,559 --> 00:28:19,319
to do it again.

674
00:28:19,240 --> 00:28:22,279
Speaker 2: Right, g So we talked about they'll give you certainty

675
00:28:22,279 --> 00:28:24,039
and confidence. And I hope that you're realizing that, Oh,

676
00:28:24,119 --> 00:28:25,839
my business starting to decline, I know what to do.

677
00:28:26,039 --> 00:28:27,640
Things aren't going well in my marriage, I know what

678
00:28:27,640 --> 00:28:29,400
to do, things aren't going well, my health, I know

679
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:29,759
what to do.

680
00:28:29,799 --> 00:28:30,759
Speaker 1: Wouldn't that be great?

681
00:28:31,079 --> 00:28:33,039
Speaker 2: Well, we're saying that that's exactly what these will do

682
00:28:33,079 --> 00:28:35,400
for you, what will make them hard to discover?

683
00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:36,079
Speaker 1: Gee?

684
00:28:36,279 --> 00:28:40,279
Speaker 2: So hard to discover negative emotions and a lack of identity.

685
00:28:40,720 --> 00:28:45,759
Speaker 1: When you get angry, you're the dumbest version of yourself. Correct,

686
00:28:45,960 --> 00:28:49,279
you are the dumbest version of yourself. When you're angry.

687
00:28:49,400 --> 00:28:52,279
It like literally just think about what your brain is doing.

688
00:28:53,839 --> 00:28:56,599
You're mad because you didn't get the result that you

689
00:28:56,640 --> 00:29:00,119
wanted and you don't understand that result. Did you ever

690
00:29:00,279 --> 00:29:02,119
get mad when you're like, I know exactly what I

691
00:29:02,200 --> 00:29:04,799
did wrong? No? Right, you get mad when you're like

692
00:29:04,839 --> 00:29:07,920
that's stupid, Right, you're mad at the thing. You might

693
00:29:07,920 --> 00:29:11,440
get frustrated at yourself, and that's a different emotion than like,

694
00:29:12,039 --> 00:29:14,720
why is this happening? I don't get this? And you

695
00:29:14,759 --> 00:29:17,000
get mad and you're saying I don't know what to

696
00:29:17,039 --> 00:29:19,640
do and I'm just going to toddler rage to try

697
00:29:19,720 --> 00:29:23,359
and change my environment. You're the dumbest version of yourself.

698
00:29:23,359 --> 00:29:26,680
When you're angry. You miss principles. Right. The emotions really

699
00:29:26,759 --> 00:29:28,599
lead into the second piece here, and I'll talk about

700
00:29:28,599 --> 00:29:30,960
it in a second, But the emotions put you in

701
00:29:30,960 --> 00:29:33,440
this place where you start to take things personal, and

702
00:29:33,480 --> 00:29:35,920
it's like, dude, it's not personal rainfalls on the just

703
00:29:36,480 --> 00:29:39,799
and the unjust. It's not about you. But what emotions

704
00:29:39,839 --> 00:29:42,160
will do is it will make you take things personal

705
00:29:42,640 --> 00:29:45,319
and you miss your opportunity to grow. It's the same

706
00:29:45,359 --> 00:29:48,319
as like somebody giving you feedback and you like cry,

707
00:29:48,440 --> 00:29:51,039
you get offended, you get mad at them. It's like, dude,

708
00:29:51,119 --> 00:29:53,640
I'm just trying to help you. I'm telling you where

709
00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,519
you could get better, and if you bring emotion into it,

710
00:29:56,559 --> 00:29:59,680
you miss the opportunity to grow. Emotions will make you

711
00:29:59,680 --> 00:30:01,880
miss principles. I was saying this to Nick. I said,

712
00:30:01,920 --> 00:30:07,319
it's not a coincidence. I am naturally. I don't say naturally.

713
00:30:07,359 --> 00:30:09,079
Maybe it's just been decades in my life and I

714
00:30:09,119 --> 00:30:11,559
had a father who demonstrated well for me because when

715
00:30:11,599 --> 00:30:13,359
I was like a ten year old, I was a

716
00:30:13,359 --> 00:30:17,079
hot head. So but for decades in my life, I've

717
00:30:17,119 --> 00:30:21,160
been someone who has my gut reaction to emotions is

718
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:24,680
now right, stop that? Yeah, right, Like they have to

719
00:30:24,880 --> 00:30:27,079
emotions have to knock at the door three times for me,

720
00:30:27,400 --> 00:30:30,480
and I'm like, well, you seem dressed appropriately, I'll let

721
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:33,680
you into my house right before I'll entertain an emotion

722
00:30:34,799 --> 00:30:36,519
because I know what A lot of the times, what

723
00:30:36,559 --> 00:30:38,880
they're doing they're going to do is make me miss

724
00:30:38,920 --> 00:30:41,720
the moment, right, I'll invite them in when they're gonna

725
00:30:41,720 --> 00:30:43,920
make the party better. But if you're not here for

726
00:30:43,920 --> 00:30:46,079
the right reasons, I'm not letting you into my house.

727
00:30:46,839 --> 00:30:50,960
Emotions will make you miss principles because instead of gathering data,

728
00:30:50,960 --> 00:30:54,000
instead of seeing the pattern, you make the wrong thing

729
00:30:54,319 --> 00:30:55,000
the priority.

730
00:30:55,079 --> 00:30:57,160
Speaker 2: Yeah, you're thinking about how it makes you feel. And

731
00:30:57,200 --> 00:30:59,480
like I mean you said when we said negative emotionation

732
00:30:59,640 --> 00:31:01,640
frustrates sadness.

733
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,720
Speaker 1: Like have you ever noticed when you get emotional you

734
00:31:04,799 --> 00:31:07,480
hyper fixate on things? Oh yeah, and you're probably not

735
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,240
hyper fixating on the thing that you actually need to

736
00:31:10,319 --> 00:31:12,000
change to make the situation are.

737
00:31:12,000 --> 00:31:14,680
Speaker 2: Like are They're like magnifying glasses, That's really what they are.

738
00:31:14,759 --> 00:31:17,119
And they and usually towards the wrong things.

739
00:31:17,279 --> 00:31:19,559
Speaker 1: It's mounting out of them oil, yeah, big time.

740
00:31:19,759 --> 00:31:22,559
Speaker 2: And mostly because what happens when you have a strong emotion,

741
00:31:22,720 --> 00:31:24,400
your folks immediately goes to yourself.

742
00:31:24,559 --> 00:31:26,440
Speaker 1: Yep, So, which is difficult. You can fixate on the

743
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:28,480
wrong things, but then the worst thing you can do

744
00:31:29,119 --> 00:31:31,640
is right. This is again what Nick and I are

745
00:31:31,640 --> 00:31:33,920
talking about right here is what makes principles hard to discover.

746
00:31:34,039 --> 00:31:38,759
Emotions and then even more so, taking things personally. Yeah,

747
00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:41,480
this is this is super power of principles. Here. When

748
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:43,680
things don't I'm going to talk about me when things

749
00:31:43,680 --> 00:31:46,519
do not work for me, When when I don't get

750
00:31:46,519 --> 00:31:49,680
the results that I want, when I'm not successful. I know,

751
00:31:50,119 --> 00:31:52,119
like this is the beginning of the equation for me.

752
00:31:52,599 --> 00:31:54,400
I know God is a great plan for my life.

753
00:31:54,440 --> 00:31:56,759
I know God loves me. I know what I'm living

754
00:31:56,799 --> 00:31:59,359
for like I'm not. I know I'm doing everything right

755
00:31:59,759 --> 00:32:02,319
and the reign is not falling on me. So what

756
00:32:02,359 --> 00:32:05,119
am I doing wrong? I don't say? Why is God

757
00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:06,960
mad at me? I guess I'm just not a good

758
00:32:07,000 --> 00:32:09,440
enough person. I guess it's not just meant to be. No,

759
00:32:09,559 --> 00:32:12,039
it is meant to be. I am meant to be successful.

760
00:32:12,359 --> 00:32:14,519
God just making sure I know how to do math right?

761
00:32:14,599 --> 00:32:17,079
So what am I missing? Yeah? Look, Garrett, what if

762
00:32:17,079 --> 00:32:18,279
you're not called to this? Garrett?

763
00:32:18,319 --> 00:32:18,440
Speaker 3: What?

764
00:32:18,519 --> 00:32:21,920
Speaker 1: Like, No, God's with me? Who told you you're not called? Right?

765
00:32:22,279 --> 00:32:24,119
Speaker 2: And but this is And that's that's where you start

766
00:32:24,119 --> 00:32:26,440
to get all because so many doubts who told you

767
00:32:26,440 --> 00:32:27,519
you weren't meant to be great?

768
00:32:27,599 --> 00:32:28,039
Speaker 1: Yeah?

769
00:32:28,480 --> 00:32:30,839
Speaker 2: And really really capture that because if you look at

770
00:32:30,839 --> 00:32:33,000
the temptations of Jesus. It always starts with the seed

771
00:32:33,039 --> 00:32:34,839
of doubt. If you look at how the devil works,

772
00:32:34,960 --> 00:32:36,799
you want to keep all this stuff out. Just stop

773
00:32:36,839 --> 00:32:40,039
the doubtful, the doubtful thinking, because did God really say

774
00:32:40,559 --> 00:32:41,960
not to eat with the fruit of the garden. That's

775
00:32:42,000 --> 00:32:44,200
how the if you're the son of God, that's how.

776
00:32:44,319 --> 00:32:46,720
That's how the devil. The known temptations we have where

777
00:32:46,720 --> 00:32:50,799
the devil speaks in the Bible, it always starts with doubt. Man,

778
00:32:51,200 --> 00:32:53,519
what does that tell you about doubt? It is literally

779
00:32:53,559 --> 00:32:55,680
the devil's number one entry into your life.

780
00:32:55,880 --> 00:32:58,000
Speaker 1: Fear, fear, and doubt is how he gets you to quit,

781
00:32:58,039 --> 00:33:00,119
how he gets you to give up. He went, and

782
00:33:00,160 --> 00:33:02,720
he's trying to make you miss principles as well, because

783
00:33:02,720 --> 00:33:05,799
he says, if when it doesn't rain at your house,

784
00:33:06,160 --> 00:33:08,359
I can get you to blame God. I'll win.

785
00:33:08,519 --> 00:33:11,319
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, exactly, because once once God's against you and

786
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,319
I need to try something else, right, because man, you

787
00:33:13,400 --> 00:33:15,960
really need that rain. And that's how people get That's

788
00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,720
how you end up doing things that you said you'd

789
00:33:17,799 --> 00:33:18,200
never do.

790
00:33:18,359 --> 00:33:20,440
Speaker 1: You begin worshiping the wrong thing exactly.

791
00:33:20,640 --> 00:33:24,079
Speaker 2: So good man, all right, gee, So that's what makes

792
00:33:24,160 --> 00:33:26,160
them hard. So let's talk about what it actually takes

793
00:33:26,160 --> 00:33:30,240
to discover them, and number one is observation and pattern recognition.

794
00:33:30,400 --> 00:33:33,440
Principles hide in patterns. When we did episode forty and like,

795
00:33:33,519 --> 00:33:35,759
if you really want to go deep on this, episode

796
00:33:35,759 --> 00:33:38,440
forty was such a great foundation for this because we

797
00:33:38,559 --> 00:33:40,400
use the right brothers and we went deep into how

798
00:33:40,400 --> 00:33:41,759
they discovered the principles of flight.

799
00:33:42,519 --> 00:33:43,319
Speaker 1: I love that episode.

800
00:33:43,319 --> 00:33:45,319
Speaker 2: I listened to it a lot because when we delivered it,

801
00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:47,920
I was definitely doing my job as a co host

802
00:33:47,920 --> 00:33:51,079
and not necessarily asser you were observing co deliver So

803
00:33:51,240 --> 00:33:53,440
like I had to listen to that one multiple times, but.

804
00:33:53,640 --> 00:33:56,960
Speaker 1: Because I remember people tell me when it clicks for them,

805
00:33:57,000 --> 00:33:59,720
and I remember years later when you told me, like

806
00:33:59,799 --> 00:34:02,160
I get it, Yes, I see it. Yeah, It's like

807
00:34:02,440 --> 00:34:04,319
I think I made the analogy, then I'll make it now.

808
00:34:04,359 --> 00:34:08,079
It's like seeing bullet trace. If you've never seen bullet trace,

809
00:34:08,079 --> 00:34:10,039
you're like, that's movie stuff that's made up. Like, no,

810
00:34:10,119 --> 00:34:12,920
it's a real thing, right, Like you can actually see

811
00:34:13,239 --> 00:34:16,920
the vortex behind a bullet as it's traveling. It's easiest

812
00:34:16,960 --> 00:34:18,760
to see when they're coming right at you or you're

813
00:34:18,760 --> 00:34:21,480
standing right behind it. It's harder to see from an

814
00:34:21,559 --> 00:34:24,639
offset angle. However, it is a real thing. And if

815
00:34:24,679 --> 00:34:26,599
you've never seen it before, you're not You don't you

816
00:34:26,679 --> 00:34:28,760
don't see it. But once you have seen it, it's

817
00:34:28,760 --> 00:34:31,400
like your eye consistently picks it up. Yeah, it's amazing.

818
00:34:31,559 --> 00:34:33,079
Speaker 2: I would rather not have it coming at me, So

819
00:34:33,159 --> 00:34:34,960
I'm glad that I've seen it. Best to get out

820
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:37,159
of the way, thank you. Yeah, because obviously you can

821
00:34:37,199 --> 00:34:38,880
dodge bullets. Anyways, we're going to add that to your

822
00:34:38,920 --> 00:34:40,960
list of things that you can You can do that.

823
00:34:42,199 --> 00:34:43,920
Speaker 1: I would say bullets are dodgeable.

824
00:34:45,000 --> 00:34:49,000
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna get very distracted anyways. So observations they

825
00:34:49,079 --> 00:34:50,039
just move very quickly.

826
00:34:50,079 --> 00:34:52,719
Speaker 1: You need you know, you're like, are you going to

827
00:34:52,880 --> 00:34:56,239
dodge a bullet fired precisely at you in the No,

828
00:34:56,360 --> 00:34:59,119
I'm not Mookie Bets, right right, but you can see

829
00:34:59,119 --> 00:35:00,760
bullets coming and you can move.

830
00:35:01,000 --> 00:35:02,960
Speaker 2: So shout out to Mookie Betts who can dodge bullets.

831
00:35:03,000 --> 00:35:05,400
That's what we're saying on this episode. Ill thought we've

832
00:35:05,440 --> 00:35:08,920
like elevated movie athlete, like you might need to get

833
00:35:08,920 --> 00:35:10,440
a fourth fourth.

834
00:35:10,840 --> 00:35:12,559
Speaker 1: Yeah. So anyways, but so.

835
00:35:12,559 --> 00:35:16,159
Speaker 2: Observation and pattern regnition and what I'll say the closer

836
00:35:16,199 --> 00:35:18,400
you are to something I'm not talking about, like, hey,

837
00:35:18,960 --> 00:35:23,119
I read this guy's Instagram post, because you're not getting deep,

838
00:35:23,360 --> 00:35:25,679
actual observation, you know how I've gotten to know Garrett

839
00:35:25,679 --> 00:35:27,480
really well and pick up on a lot of things

840
00:35:27,519 --> 00:35:28,079
that he does.

841
00:35:28,480 --> 00:35:31,559
Speaker 1: I'm with Garrett all the time. I get to observe.

842
00:35:31,480 --> 00:35:33,440
Speaker 2: What Garrett does and the things that he says when

843
00:35:33,480 --> 00:35:35,840
I watch him in different situations just in passing. We've

844
00:35:35,880 --> 00:35:37,960
done so many random things together, as well as a

845
00:35:38,000 --> 00:35:40,360
lot of things just that are just normal friendship stuff.

846
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,599
What do I get to observe Garrett all the time?

847
00:35:42,719 --> 00:35:44,360
How do they get to know the principles of marketing?

848
00:35:44,480 --> 00:35:47,599
I've worked with a lot of companies and spend thousands

849
00:35:47,599 --> 00:35:51,119
of hours deep in these companies understanding how they operate,

850
00:35:51,320 --> 00:35:53,719
and watch these things over and over again. So I

851
00:35:53,760 --> 00:35:56,920
say this to encourage you. You cannot, like, like, read

852
00:35:57,039 --> 00:35:59,039
a five minute Forbes article and somebody be like, great,

853
00:35:59,079 --> 00:36:01,039
I know all the I know all the past. Unless

854
00:36:01,079 --> 00:36:03,360
you have a deep knowledge of that thing that you're

855
00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:05,519
reading about, You're not going to pull the principles out

856
00:36:05,559 --> 00:36:07,639
just by snapping your fingers. It takes a bit of

857
00:36:07,679 --> 00:36:09,559
work and lots of repetition.

858
00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:12,760
Speaker 1: So again the same way the things that are mentioned

859
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:15,840
in scripture, the sun rises, the sunsets, you would observe

860
00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,800
that and see the pattern and all like all business

861
00:36:19,920 --> 00:36:22,719
or all problems, all problems are just like all complicated

862
00:36:22,760 --> 00:36:25,280
problems are just set of simple problems put together. Yeah, okay,

863
00:36:25,320 --> 00:36:27,880
And when you can understand simple systems, then you begin

864
00:36:27,920 --> 00:36:31,000
to understand complicated systems. You've got to know the basics

865
00:36:31,000 --> 00:36:33,440
of principles, and then you start to see that like

866
00:36:33,760 --> 00:36:36,119
the problems you don't understand, it's just a two or

867
00:36:36,159 --> 00:36:39,800
three or four multi layered complex problem. But if you

868
00:36:39,840 --> 00:36:42,599
can understand all the principles at play, then you know

869
00:36:42,639 --> 00:36:44,639
how you're going to get the exact same results as

870
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:47,679
when's the sun going to come up tomorrow six oh four?

871
00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:51,039
Right right, Because I've been watching, I've been paying attention,

872
00:36:51,480 --> 00:36:53,960
you can know what's going to happen in business. And

873
00:36:54,000 --> 00:36:58,239
then the things that are like so advanced, like economics

874
00:36:58,599 --> 00:37:01,840
well or like trying to predict the stock market. If

875
00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,280
you like God could predict the stock market, if you

876
00:37:04,360 --> 00:37:07,599
are intelligent enough, you could. And it is everyone's fear

877
00:37:07,639 --> 00:37:09,840
that AI will get to that place. The thing that

878
00:37:09,880 --> 00:37:11,559
I think AI is going to struggle with is the

879
00:37:11,599 --> 00:37:15,760
psychology aspect, because you have to anticipate and simulate psychology

880
00:37:16,079 --> 00:37:18,559
because the you know, the stock market is both math

881
00:37:18,639 --> 00:37:22,079
and psychology. But there's the people who understand the math

882
00:37:22,199 --> 00:37:25,320
and are good at psychology. They're in that principal place

883
00:37:25,360 --> 00:37:27,599
of like, I don't know exactly what's going to happen,

884
00:37:27,800 --> 00:37:29,239
but I got a really good idea.

885
00:37:29,400 --> 00:37:33,199
Speaker 2: Yeah now, And so beside stock market is a great example.

886
00:37:33,239 --> 00:37:35,920
Shooting guns is a great example. Baseball is a great

887
00:37:35,920 --> 00:37:37,920
example because the second thing you need to be able

888
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:40,519
to discover them, Like I said, observation and pattern regnition, but.

889
00:37:40,480 --> 00:37:43,880
Speaker 1: We need consistency. Consistency is that thing like I can

890
00:37:43,920 --> 00:37:47,079
shoot the way that these guys can hit baseballs, of

891
00:37:47,119 --> 00:37:49,639
like I do something and when the ball, when the

892
00:37:49,639 --> 00:37:53,480
bullet doesn't hit the target, I'm like, Okay, it must

893
00:37:53,480 --> 00:37:56,400
have been this right because I know exactly what. I'm

894
00:37:56,480 --> 00:37:59,360
clear on what I did. There must have been maybe more.

895
00:37:59,440 --> 00:38:02,360
And this isn't like blaming something. Is more like, oh,

896
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:05,320
either this was off or the wind was off, or

897
00:38:05,519 --> 00:38:08,880
like I miscalculated something. I'm not like, no, man, what happened?

898
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,440
I thought I did everything right? When I miss I

899
00:38:11,519 --> 00:38:13,039
know it's either a B or C that I.

900
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:16,159
Speaker 2: Did wrong right now, but to start with what consistency

901
00:38:16,199 --> 00:38:18,519
looks like in these things, So like if it because

902
00:38:18,559 --> 00:38:21,480
I think you're trying to remove for variables and things

903
00:38:21,480 --> 00:38:24,159
that might be influencing it. If one day you're shooting

904
00:38:24,159 --> 00:38:27,280
on the range outside, the next day you're inside, and

905
00:38:27,760 --> 00:38:29,440
or like if you're in baseball, if you're like, let's

906
00:38:29,440 --> 00:38:31,480
try the fastball, now, let's try the curveball. Now, let's

907
00:38:31,480 --> 00:38:33,960
try It's like, no, you need a thousand fastball, right.

908
00:38:34,239 --> 00:38:39,480
Speaker 1: Here's a reason athletes, like great great athletes all tell

909
00:38:39,519 --> 00:38:42,679
these stories or there's these myths or stories about them

910
00:38:43,159 --> 00:38:47,519
of what their preparation looked like, and it's thousands and thousands.

911
00:38:47,519 --> 00:38:50,480
Like Steph Curry, the dude who's like unlocked a different

912
00:38:50,559 --> 00:38:52,840
level of three point game in the NBA. I don't

913
00:38:52,840 --> 00:38:55,559
remember his routine, but I remember that it's silly. It's

914
00:38:55,599 --> 00:38:58,239
a couple hundred three pointers every day. Yeah, yeah, it's

915
00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,519
stupid that he's done since he was little and from

916
00:39:00,559 --> 00:39:02,760
all the different positions. I don't remember all the details

917
00:39:02,800 --> 00:39:05,639
of it. But if you want to get results in

918
00:39:05,679 --> 00:39:09,360
your life, it's principles plus consistency. Okay, and so if

919
00:39:09,360 --> 00:39:13,119
we'll just do the algebra here, if you can solve

920
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:17,599
for consistency. I got consistency locked down. And if I'm

921
00:39:17,639 --> 00:39:19,599
not getting the result that I want, then I just

922
00:39:19,639 --> 00:39:21,960
need to adjust my variable, which in this case is

923
00:39:22,039 --> 00:39:25,320
principles until I get the results that I want. But

924
00:39:25,400 --> 00:39:28,280
if you're not consistent, it's going to be luck when

925
00:39:28,280 --> 00:39:30,000
you hit a principle and you won't know how to

926
00:39:30,039 --> 00:39:31,519
replicate it, which.

927
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:34,559
Speaker 2: Led to the Garrett uncle back results formula, which was

928
00:39:34,760 --> 00:39:39,679
principles plus consistency equals results. So gee, I want to

929
00:39:39,719 --> 00:39:42,079
apply this, but before we do, because some people, I

930
00:39:42,119 --> 00:39:44,199
hope you guys are getting this, hope, like, I hope

931
00:39:44,199 --> 00:39:46,320
you're starting to go, like, man, I think it's covered principles.

932
00:39:46,360 --> 00:39:48,280
Speaker 1: The biggest takeaway want people to have is the mindset

933
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,599
understanding of like, dude, stop taking it personal when it's

934
00:39:51,679 --> 00:39:54,559
like God's not mad at you, right, but also being

935
00:39:54,599 --> 00:39:57,639
a like have a relationship with God, that that's not

936
00:39:57,840 --> 00:40:00,599
just a fact for you that you feel that way, right,

937
00:40:00,719 --> 00:40:03,639
that look, put your heart in a place with God

938
00:40:03,639 --> 00:40:06,760
that it's like I don't just know that, like because

939
00:40:06,800 --> 00:40:09,519
Garrett told me that God wants me to win. I know,

940
00:40:09,679 --> 00:40:12,239
because I have a relationship with God. Yeah, that God

941
00:40:12,280 --> 00:40:14,280
wants me to win. God has a great plan for

942
00:40:14,360 --> 00:40:16,880
my life. Put your life, put your heart in that place.

943
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:20,039
That way you can lean on principles that much harder. Yep.

944
00:40:20,159 --> 00:40:23,559
And because here's like, because of my relationship with God,

945
00:40:23,599 --> 00:40:27,280
what I know is it's very very unlikely for hal

946
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:28,519
to fall on my crop.

947
00:40:28,440 --> 00:40:31,639
Speaker 2: Right, Yeah, because you know the guy that controls the weather. Yeah,

948
00:40:31,679 --> 00:40:32,039
for sure.

949
00:40:32,159 --> 00:40:33,079
Speaker 1: It's like whenever Rhein.

950
00:40:34,000 --> 00:40:36,320
Speaker 2: When we had the thing with Rhein, obviously and everything

951
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:38,360
that happened, it was the oddest thing that that was

952
00:40:38,400 --> 00:40:39,840
the hottest day of the year. I mean, we not

953
00:40:39,880 --> 00:40:41,559
had a day even close to it. And then the

954
00:40:41,599 --> 00:40:43,079
one day we run the fifty mile it goes to

955
00:40:43,119 --> 00:40:45,920
ninety six. And my best friend James said, man, would

956
00:40:46,119 --> 00:40:47,840
He's like, wouldn't it be h He's like, man, if

957
00:40:47,880 --> 00:40:49,480
you guys had run it the weekend before or after,

958
00:40:49,480 --> 00:40:51,079
it would have been perfect. And I said, yeah, but

959
00:40:51,079 --> 00:40:52,920
who controls the weather, And he's like God. I was like,

960
00:40:53,039 --> 00:40:56,000
so it was meant to happen. That's different. Yeah, I wasn't.

961
00:40:56,039 --> 00:40:57,039
Speaker 1: I wasn't mad that the weather.

962
00:40:57,360 --> 00:40:58,960
Speaker 2: I'm not mad I know God's for me, and I

963
00:40:59,000 --> 00:41:00,679
know that there's something that that was supposed to happen

964
00:41:00,719 --> 00:41:03,199
in that So that's that's a different level. So let

965
00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:04,679
me give you a cheat code. Though for all of you,

966
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:07,320
I hope that you have the mindset. I hope you're realizing, okay,

967
00:41:07,639 --> 00:41:10,039
the process of discoveries where I find the principles and

968
00:41:10,079 --> 00:41:13,400
that's wherever God's developing who you are. But if you

969
00:41:13,440 --> 00:41:16,079
are going, man, I'm still not really sure how.

970
00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:16,400
Speaker 1: To get these.

971
00:41:16,480 --> 00:41:19,760
Speaker 2: Here's the cheat code. Just do what someone who has

972
00:41:19,800 --> 00:41:22,280
what you want is doing. And like, once again, you

973
00:41:22,360 --> 00:41:24,320
need to have intimate knowledge. This is not like I

974
00:41:24,360 --> 00:41:27,239
saw an Instagram post from this influencer and he said

975
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,079
to do four sets of eight bicep curls, and now

976
00:41:30,159 --> 00:41:31,920
I'm just gonna like, I'm gonna look exactly like him.

977
00:41:31,920 --> 00:41:33,599
There's a lot of other stuff that guy's doing that.

978
00:41:33,679 --> 00:41:35,400
Speaker 1: You're not aware of. You need to be able to

979
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:36,199
have intimate knowledge.

980
00:41:36,199 --> 00:41:37,880
Speaker 2: But if I was a baseball player, we're gonna go

981
00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:39,880
back since we started off with that analogy, and I

982
00:41:39,920 --> 00:41:41,719
want to be a great hitter, I'd be saying, what

983
00:41:41,760 --> 00:41:44,079
do great hitters do? Well, you know what one of

984
00:41:44,079 --> 00:41:45,880
the great Hitters all times. Ted Williams, he wrote a

985
00:41:45,880 --> 00:41:48,199
book right which I love. You can talk like Tony

986
00:41:48,239 --> 00:41:52,159
gwyn once again, great hitter, modern day great hitters. You know,

987
00:41:52,199 --> 00:41:55,559
there's Louis A. Rayes who plays for the San Francisco Giants.

988
00:41:55,719 --> 00:41:57,679
Like you start looking, what are these guys do?

989
00:41:58,239 --> 00:42:00,840
Speaker 1: Like? These these are not guys who just show up

990
00:42:00,840 --> 00:42:03,239
at the park and go like I've got it. They're working.

991
00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:03,960
What did Mookie do?

992
00:42:04,320 --> 00:42:07,559
Speaker 2: Cage work, soft toss off the t off, the off,

993
00:42:07,559 --> 00:42:09,400
the off, VP off the machine?

994
00:42:09,480 --> 00:42:10,639
Speaker 1: How many times.

995
00:42:10,519 --> 00:42:14,000
Speaker 2: Over and over and over and over again until he

996
00:42:14,039 --> 00:42:14,800
knew he had that?

997
00:42:14,920 --> 00:42:17,719
Speaker 1: Right? Okay, well did did he do it once? No?

998
00:42:18,400 --> 00:42:20,880
Speaker 2: He did it exceptional amounts to get out of the slump.

999
00:42:20,920 --> 00:42:22,440
But it's not like he's just fallen off and taking

1000
00:42:22,480 --> 00:42:24,360
it for granted. Since then, what does it look like?

1001
00:42:24,519 --> 00:42:27,000
Sounds a lot like hard work, sounds like opportunity disguis

1002
00:42:27,039 --> 00:42:29,000
is hard work? Gee, But if you if you do

1003
00:42:29,079 --> 00:42:32,239
what that person does, and you and you know, like

1004
00:42:32,280 --> 00:42:34,119
I said, you had that intimate knowledge, it's just a

1005
00:42:34,159 --> 00:42:35,000
matter of time.

1006
00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:36,840
Speaker 1: There's gonna be well, I think the it's why I

1007
00:42:36,920 --> 00:42:39,679
like it, you know, And it's also why ESPN says

1008
00:42:39,679 --> 00:42:41,159
it's one of the hardest things to do in sports.

1009
00:42:41,199 --> 00:42:43,920
I think ESPN once rated hitting a professional baseball as

1010
00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:46,800
the number one hardest thing to do. It'sportant, it's very

1011
00:42:46,840 --> 00:42:49,599
hard to do. Yeah, Okay, so sometimes you're gonna do

1012
00:42:49,639 --> 00:42:51,559
stuff in life that's hard and you're like, well, I'm

1013
00:42:51,599 --> 00:42:55,119
doing everything right, and you know what if because this

1014
00:42:55,719 --> 00:42:58,000
trying to get trying to get success is both an

1015
00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:01,039
identity and a principles equation, right, You got to have

1016
00:43:01,079 --> 00:43:03,400
the right mindset, it's a big piece of it. But

1017
00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:05,639
then also you can have the mindset, you can have

1018
00:43:05,639 --> 00:43:07,440
the belief in God and you have the relationship with God.

1019
00:43:07,559 --> 00:43:09,159
But if you don't have how to hit a baseball,

1020
00:43:09,440 --> 00:43:11,960
we're gonna need a miracle for you to hit the baseball. Kay,

1021
00:43:11,960 --> 00:43:13,480
So if we're not going to count on a miracle,

1022
00:43:13,800 --> 00:43:15,719
you're gonna have to get the principles right as well.

1023
00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:18,360
And what you've got to learn how to do is,

1024
00:43:18,400 --> 00:43:21,519
like looks, get the identity portion right, do the work,

1025
00:43:21,760 --> 00:43:24,039
have the relationship with God where you don't have fear

1026
00:43:24,039 --> 00:43:26,800
in Like, if you want to suck in the batter's box,

1027
00:43:26,880 --> 00:43:29,840
bring fear and doubt in there with you or in anything. Yeah,

1028
00:43:30,199 --> 00:43:32,119
be someone who you can get in the box without

1029
00:43:32,159 --> 00:43:37,360
fear in doubt. Then leverage the principles correctly. To say, again,

1030
00:43:37,480 --> 00:43:41,320
principles does not guarantee outcomes, but you you change the

1031
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:44,320
statistical likelihood. And so the way that I look at

1032
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,239
principles is it is it is an uncontrollable, right, It's

1033
00:43:48,239 --> 00:43:51,039
an uncontrollable. You cannot guarantee that you can hit a

1034
00:43:51,079 --> 00:43:53,519
baseball greatest, Like what's a batting average? Is the greatest

1035
00:43:53,519 --> 00:43:54,320
baseball player ever?

1036
00:43:54,800 --> 00:43:57,119
Speaker 2: Uh Man, Off the top of my head, I don't know.

1037
00:43:57,159 --> 00:44:00,960
I mean Tony gwyn is up there. For Ted Williams

1038
00:44:01,000 --> 00:44:02,760
had the greatest season of all time four oh six.

1039
00:44:02,800 --> 00:44:05,360
Speaker 1: That's the highest thing. So okay, So and even the

1040
00:44:05,360 --> 00:44:08,320
greatest players a third of the time they're hitting them,

1041
00:44:08,320 --> 00:44:11,199
so they can't guarantee it cannot be guaranteed. They can

1042
00:44:11,280 --> 00:44:14,679
just get really likely. And so what is the actual

1043
00:44:14,679 --> 00:44:19,039
math equation of that can use the controllables to leverage

1044
00:44:19,039 --> 00:44:22,440
and bring down the uncontrollables. Be so good with the

1045
00:44:22,480 --> 00:44:26,039
things you can control that it is very unreasonable that

1046
00:44:26,119 --> 00:44:29,480
you wouldn't be successful. That is how you utilize principles.

1047
00:44:29,760 --> 00:44:32,239
It is not because and if you have a weak identity,

1048
00:44:32,800 --> 00:44:34,639
you'll step in the box and then you not hit

1049
00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:37,960
and you're like, oh well it's you turn it. But

1050
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:40,880
you start having identity fault errors where it's like you

1051
00:44:40,920 --> 00:44:44,480
start making poor mindset statements and then you're losing your

1052
00:44:44,480 --> 00:44:48,039
ability to leverage principles. When MOOKI was going through that slump,

1053
00:44:48,400 --> 00:44:50,920
I doubt, I highly doubt he was gone, man, maybe

1054
00:44:50,960 --> 00:44:51,800
I've just lost it.

1055
00:44:51,880 --> 00:44:53,679
Speaker 2: No all he you know, what he was saying is

1056
00:44:53,760 --> 00:44:56,199
results matter. Process doesn't. Because people were like, well you

1057
00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,239
hit that one. That all that got pulled back last night,

1058
00:44:58,239 --> 00:44:59,599
and he was like, it's still an out. That's the

1059
00:44:59,679 --> 00:45:01,960
exact quote he said, it's still an out. Yeah, So

1060
00:45:02,000 --> 00:45:03,960
he was not going to quit until he until he

1061
00:45:04,000 --> 00:45:05,239
got the results right.

1062
00:45:05,360 --> 00:45:08,199
Speaker 1: So again, get the identity right. It's a different episode.

1063
00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,800
But then that puts you in a position to understand

1064
00:45:10,840 --> 00:45:15,000
how principles work. Principles govern outcomes. What can I do

1065
00:45:15,320 --> 00:45:18,079
to influence the principle to work for me when you

1066
00:45:18,119 --> 00:45:21,280
have the principle's mindset. I'm not saying everything goes your way, correct,

1067
00:45:21,280 --> 00:45:22,719
but you know how to make things go your way.

1068
00:45:22,760 --> 00:45:24,639
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just a matter of time. You become inevitable,

1069
00:45:24,639 --> 00:45:26,760
which we've talked about another episode. Okay, so gee, if

1070
00:45:26,800 --> 00:45:28,920
all this baseball talk, where are we going to apply principles?

1071
00:45:29,079 --> 00:45:31,239
We're gonna apply it to great relationships, which has because

1072
00:45:31,239 --> 00:45:32,920
we don't want this to be just for baseball players,

1073
00:45:32,920 --> 00:45:35,599
even though we do love our baseball players. So look, man,

1074
00:45:35,639 --> 00:45:38,960
everybody wants to have great relationships. So we're going to

1075
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,199
show you how to discover these, and then we're going

1076
00:45:41,199 --> 00:45:43,480
to give the exact principles of great relationships and talk

1077
00:45:43,480 --> 00:45:45,239
about how we navigate them in our own lives and

1078
00:45:45,239 --> 00:45:47,079
how we've seen other people do it. So very first

1079
00:45:47,079 --> 00:45:51,320
thing you have to identify a great relationship, and here's

1080
00:45:51,360 --> 00:45:54,239
here's how we define great relationship is that you're better

1081
00:45:54,320 --> 00:45:56,880
together than your part, that you're so much more together

1082
00:45:56,920 --> 00:45:58,840
than you'd ever be on your own, and it needs

1083
00:45:58,840 --> 00:46:01,000
to be true for both people. You talk about this

1084
00:46:01,079 --> 00:46:02,840
in marriage, g and I think, well, yeah, well.

1085
00:46:02,679 --> 00:46:05,840
Speaker 1: It's in relationships. It's synergy, like we were talking about,

1086
00:46:05,880 --> 00:46:09,719
where you're better together than a part, you multiply each other.

1087
00:46:10,440 --> 00:46:14,119
I had a definition early on in marriage. Lindsay and

1088
00:46:14,199 --> 00:46:16,840
I talked about this like either right before we got

1089
00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:18,440
married or right after we got married. It was in

1090
00:46:18,440 --> 00:46:21,559
that season, and I said, great marriages when both people

1091
00:46:21,559 --> 00:46:23,599
think they got the better end of the deal, Yeah right,

1092
00:46:23,679 --> 00:46:25,480
Like you're like, no, I got the good end of

1093
00:46:25,480 --> 00:46:27,320
the deal in this when both people feel that way.

1094
00:46:27,519 --> 00:46:31,079
Because relationships, a great relationship is where you is where

1095
00:46:31,119 --> 00:46:33,440
you make each other better. They can't just be one way, right,

1096
00:46:33,480 --> 00:46:35,800
It can't just be like, well, man, I really want

1097
00:46:35,800 --> 00:46:37,360
to hang out with this guy. He makes me better.

1098
00:46:37,360 --> 00:46:39,280
Well do you make him better? Right? Right? But when

1099
00:46:39,320 --> 00:46:41,559
you both when that happens for both of you, that

1100
00:46:41,719 --> 00:46:43,360
is a great relationship, and it's going to be in

1101
00:46:43,400 --> 00:46:45,639
the context of whatever you both care about or whatever

1102
00:46:45,719 --> 00:46:48,119
you are both focused on, just like a marriage's.

1103
00:46:47,920 --> 00:46:51,079
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly. And I hope you have a living example

1104
00:46:51,119 --> 00:46:53,480
of this. I will say coming out to Dallas has

1105
00:46:53,519 --> 00:46:56,599
been such a level up for me and seeing great relationships,

1106
00:46:56,599 --> 00:46:58,400
not just in friendships, like I mean your dad and

1107
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:00,840
pastor Keith having a forty three year friendship where they

1108
00:47:00,920 --> 00:47:03,039
just committed to each other and said, hey, we're supposed

1109
00:47:03,039 --> 00:47:05,519
to be together, and they've run and they've built, you know,

1110
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:07,880
honestly a church now that so many people are getting

1111
00:47:07,920 --> 00:47:10,239
blessed from, like the fruit of their relationship has blessed

1112
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:12,039
thousands of people at this point, I would say tens

1113
00:47:12,039 --> 00:47:14,639
of thousands, because really this podcast would not have happened

1114
00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:17,199
without their relationship. And they're speaking to you, so not

1115
00:47:17,199 --> 00:47:18,880
to mention all the people. Pastor Keith is touched, and

1116
00:47:18,960 --> 00:47:20,639
you know, it's just it's ridiculous how many people have.

1117
00:47:20,599 --> 00:47:22,559
Speaker 1: Been in the power of multiplication. It really is.

1118
00:47:22,840 --> 00:47:24,760
Speaker 2: And so I hope you get to see some examples.

1119
00:47:24,840 --> 00:47:26,800
And here's the great thing. If you're listening to this podcast,

1120
00:47:27,199 --> 00:47:29,159
we are going to continue to give these great examples.

1121
00:47:29,199 --> 00:47:31,719
Your parents are an awesome example of marriage. We've had

1122
00:47:31,719 --> 00:47:33,760
them on the podcast. Go listen to them. You know

1123
00:47:33,800 --> 00:47:35,800
what your mom says all the time about your dad,

1124
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,800
She I just love that man so much. Now, your

1125
00:47:38,840 --> 00:47:41,920
mom is she's a very attractive woman, she looks amazing,

1126
00:47:42,119 --> 00:47:45,800
she's very you know, she's very sweet, she's smart, she's caring,

1127
00:47:45,840 --> 00:47:46,400
she's intelligent.

1128
00:47:46,519 --> 00:47:48,920
Speaker 1: Your dad absolutely loves her to pieces.

1129
00:47:48,920 --> 00:47:51,000
Speaker 2: Man talks about Darling and talks about how much she

1130
00:47:51,079 --> 00:47:53,519
loves They both sit there and talk about the other person,

1131
00:47:53,599 --> 00:47:56,119
and you can hear they're just like, man, I just

1132
00:47:56,239 --> 00:47:58,800
love being with this person. I'm so grateful and lucky

1133
00:47:58,840 --> 00:48:00,639
I got. They haven't used the word luck. I've never

1134
00:48:00,679 --> 00:48:02,920
heard that, but like it's that sentiment where you're just

1135
00:48:02,960 --> 00:48:05,800
like I won, like I won, And that's what we're saying.

1136
00:48:05,800 --> 00:48:07,480
When you get to be around a relationship like that,

1137
00:48:07,480 --> 00:48:10,280
you're like, oh wait, because what's on TVG What do

1138
00:48:10,320 --> 00:48:12,880
we see all the time? The ball and chain? You know,

1139
00:48:13,079 --> 00:48:15,719
Like sometimes people say my better half, which is like,

1140
00:48:15,840 --> 00:48:18,079
you know, not the I guess it's saying nice things,

1141
00:48:18,079 --> 00:48:20,519
but it's not always it's not always meant to be.

1142
00:48:20,840 --> 00:48:22,719
I don't really always feel like it's so sincere. But

1143
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:25,440
we have such terrible examples of marriage, so so we

1144
00:48:25,480 --> 00:48:27,400
hope that you can have a living example because when

1145
00:48:27,400 --> 00:48:29,320
you have a living example of a great relationship, whether

1146
00:48:29,360 --> 00:48:31,800
it's a friendship or whether it's it's in marriage, it

1147
00:48:31,840 --> 00:48:32,239
makes this.

1148
00:48:32,239 --> 00:48:34,079
Speaker 1: A lot easier. So if you don't, we're going to

1149
00:48:34,159 --> 00:48:36,079
use the ones that say have yet, the same way

1150
00:48:36,159 --> 00:48:38,920
these baseball players are going to use a coach and

1151
00:48:39,039 --> 00:48:41,480
use video systems and all the other things they do

1152
00:48:41,800 --> 00:48:45,679
to help them see correctly. What what does great look like? Yeah?

1153
00:48:45,719 --> 00:48:47,880
Speaker 2: Exactly, So if you don't know what great looks like,

1154
00:48:47,880 --> 00:48:49,559
we're gonna talk a little bit about it. So the

1155
00:48:49,559 --> 00:48:51,440
principles of a great relationship, and this is not just

1156
00:48:51,480 --> 00:48:55,360
a marriage, this is a friendship as well. Number one honor. Now,

1157
00:48:55,599 --> 00:48:59,719
honor is basically you assigning value. Everybody navigates this principle

1158
00:48:59,719 --> 00:49:01,360
of honor, whether they know it or not, because you

1159
00:49:01,440 --> 00:49:02,480
all assign value.

1160
00:49:02,559 --> 00:49:04,199
Speaker 1: If somebody comes in to talk to you and.

1161
00:49:04,079 --> 00:49:06,239
Speaker 2: You're like, this guy looks like an idiot, what a loser,

1162
00:49:06,519 --> 00:49:08,480
they could come in and say exactly what you need,

1163
00:49:08,760 --> 00:49:11,400
and you will not benefit from it because you've not

1164
00:49:11,559 --> 00:49:14,679
honored that person. You've assigned them no value, right, and

1165
00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:15,960
so people are very bad.

1166
00:49:16,039 --> 00:49:18,039
Speaker 1: I think we honor in general.

1167
00:49:17,800 --> 00:49:20,000
Speaker 2: And society, we honor the wrong things, like oh man,

1168
00:49:20,000 --> 00:49:20,840
the Kardashians.

1169
00:49:21,199 --> 00:49:21,880
Speaker 1: I don't know them.

1170
00:49:21,800 --> 00:49:25,239
Speaker 2: Personally, but looking at a lot of what they stand for,

1171
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:27,519
I don't think that that's necessarily. I don't think anyone's

1172
00:49:27,519 --> 00:49:28,559
gonna hold this one against you.

1173
00:49:28,599 --> 00:49:30,000
Speaker 1: Well, you never know you. There's always gonna be that

1174
00:49:30,039 --> 00:49:31,719
person that's like I met her and she's so sweet.

1175
00:49:31,760 --> 00:49:34,480
Speaker 2: Anyways, pray Yeah, probably not the listeners on this podcast,

1176
00:49:34,679 --> 00:49:37,119
but you get my point. What you honor, you get

1177
00:49:37,159 --> 00:49:40,760
more of. Just understand that whatever you assign value to

1178
00:49:41,039 --> 00:49:43,440
you get more of Hey, I think this is cool. Hey,

1179
00:49:43,719 --> 00:49:45,840
you know money's important to me. You will get more money,

1180
00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:48,239
but you'll get all the sinful stuff that comes with it.

1181
00:49:48,480 --> 00:49:51,559
Honor the right things, Honor God. Honor what God honors.

1182
00:49:51,599 --> 00:49:53,960
What is God energy? He values pride or I'm sorry.

1183
00:49:54,000 --> 00:49:59,320
He values humility, He values righteousness, He values justice, mercy, grace, love.

1184
00:49:59,519 --> 00:50:01,840
You start honoring what God get honors, you'll get more

1185
00:50:01,880 --> 00:50:04,079
of that. So what does this look like in relationships?

1186
00:50:04,280 --> 00:50:07,039
To honor your partner the way Pastor Keith does it.

1187
00:50:07,079 --> 00:50:09,679
You've thought this from him. He celebrates his wife on

1188
00:50:09,719 --> 00:50:12,480
the twentieth I know when their anniversary is because he's

1189
00:50:12,519 --> 00:50:15,559
so effusive about it. At the twentieth of every month,

1190
00:50:15,599 --> 00:50:17,840
he celebrates his wife, and he knows how many hundreds

1191
00:50:17,840 --> 00:50:19,760
of months they've been together because it's over forty years

1192
00:50:19,760 --> 00:50:21,760
at this point that they've been married. That's a way

1193
00:50:21,800 --> 00:50:25,480
of honoring. I don't do that personally, but the member.

1194
00:50:25,559 --> 00:50:28,360
You're going to assign value. How do you assign value?

1195
00:50:28,719 --> 00:50:31,639
You express it. So for me and my wife, I

1196
00:50:31,679 --> 00:50:33,639
send my wife messages and really, all the people that

1197
00:50:33,639 --> 00:50:35,719
are close, you've gotten them. Your dad was talking about

1198
00:50:35,760 --> 00:50:37,920
how he's received them. The people that I'm close do

1199
00:50:37,920 --> 00:50:39,760
in life, they will get messages from me where I

1200
00:50:39,840 --> 00:50:41,000
express what they mean to me.

1201
00:50:41,360 --> 00:50:42,000
Speaker 1: What am I doing.

1202
00:50:42,440 --> 00:50:44,920
Speaker 2: I'm honoring them because they mean something to me, and

1203
00:50:44,960 --> 00:50:48,039
I'm letting them know. So, whether it's a marriage, whether

1204
00:50:48,039 --> 00:50:50,719
it's a friendship, when you start assigning honor to people,

1205
00:50:50,840 --> 00:50:52,639
you let them know. You don't just kind of go like, oh,

1206
00:50:52,639 --> 00:50:54,199
he knows how I feel or she knows how I

1207
00:50:54,239 --> 00:50:57,719
feel about her. No, you express it in whatever way.

1208
00:50:57,840 --> 00:51:01,159
Speaker 1: It's the same reason that God as for sacrifice in

1209
00:51:01,199 --> 00:51:04,199
the Old Testament. Yeah, show me what you value.

1210
00:51:04,320 --> 00:51:06,639
Speaker 2: Because we'd think like, oh, they sacrifice an animal. That's

1211
00:51:06,639 --> 00:51:08,960
basically you taking a stack of cash and burning it.

1212
00:51:09,079 --> 00:51:11,679
Speaker 1: Yeah, you wouldn't, you know, you wouldn't feel they didn't

1213
00:51:11,679 --> 00:51:13,800
have they didn't have Benjamin's back then, right, but they

1214
00:51:13,800 --> 00:51:16,199
did have a cow, and that cow was like they

1215
00:51:16,199 --> 00:51:18,320
were waiting for that thing to give a calf because

1216
00:51:18,320 --> 00:51:20,119
guess what that was. That was their life, It was

1217
00:51:20,159 --> 00:51:22,280
their sustenance. Yeah, exactly so.

1218
00:51:22,280 --> 00:51:24,199
Speaker 2: So honor is the very first thing, and gee, the

1219
00:51:24,239 --> 00:51:27,239
second one is proximity, right, And you can observe this

1220
00:51:27,320 --> 00:51:30,679
in any relationship, no marriage or friendship. I can't say, like, oh,

1221
00:51:30,679 --> 00:51:32,079
Garretts one of my best friends. When was the last

1222
00:51:32,079 --> 00:51:33,639
time you hung out? I don't know, man, like twenty

1223
00:51:33,719 --> 00:51:36,039
twenty four, You're not one of my best friends, right,

1224
00:51:36,079 --> 00:51:37,920
You're a nice idea that I had. Same thing with

1225
00:51:37,960 --> 00:51:39,800
your marriage. What do we say to men more than

1226
00:51:39,800 --> 00:51:42,320
anything date your wife?

1227
00:51:42,519 --> 00:51:45,880
Speaker 1: I can't. It's like the simplest thing. Wait, we you

1228
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,599
and I both get the privilege of working with some

1229
00:51:48,679 --> 00:51:51,800
men one on one. We also do some some group work.

1230
00:51:52,320 --> 00:51:54,800
And there've been there's people that I've been with and

1231
00:51:54,840 --> 00:51:57,199
I'm like, I've told them over and over and over again,

1232
00:51:57,239 --> 00:51:58,960
and they don't do it, and they're still in the

1233
00:51:59,000 --> 00:52:02,239
same allenges that they've had before. And there's also some

1234
00:52:02,320 --> 00:52:04,480
men I won't say their names, but then I'm thinking

1235
00:52:04,519 --> 00:52:07,559
of specifically right now that they went through the challenge

1236
00:52:07,679 --> 00:52:10,000
of like, Okay, I'm going to figure out how to

1237
00:52:10,079 --> 00:52:12,760
do this because sometimes it's difficult because of life and

1238
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:15,519
seasons and everything else, how to date my wife. But

1239
00:52:15,559 --> 00:52:17,639
then't do it every week, And it's like, wow, this

1240
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:21,280
is crazy. Everything got better in our relationship.

1241
00:52:20,800 --> 00:52:22,599
Speaker 2: Yeah, because you know what, you know what proximity and

1242
00:52:22,599 --> 00:52:25,679
regular intentional time. Cristy is connection, and that's what you're

1243
00:52:25,679 --> 00:52:27,760
aware of. You know when you're connected or not connected

1244
00:52:27,800 --> 00:52:30,199
to somebody, And it amazes me that we miss that

1245
00:52:30,880 --> 00:52:33,360
why we don't have that connection. But speaking from experience,

1246
00:52:33,519 --> 00:52:35,320
you know what I said all the time about Rein,

1247
00:52:35,360 --> 00:52:37,559
whenever our marriage wasn't going great, I just don't feel

1248
00:52:37,559 --> 00:52:40,280
connected to her. And so in my loser mentality and

1249
00:52:40,320 --> 00:52:43,719
in my absolute selfishness and not knowing God, I just thought, well,

1250
00:52:43,760 --> 00:52:44,679
maybe we're not meant to be.

1251
00:52:44,960 --> 00:52:48,519
Speaker 1: And in the way of the way you're talking about proximity,

1252
00:52:48,719 --> 00:52:53,360
there is in parentheses here consistency of proximity, because this

1253
00:52:53,480 --> 00:52:58,480
is watering your garden. Yeah, and you can't. We've had

1254
00:52:58,599 --> 00:53:01,559
a lot of analogies about this with the team and

1255
00:53:01,559 --> 00:53:04,199
the guys at Union for some of the processes that

1256
00:53:04,239 --> 00:53:07,760
were in that just take time. Yeah, like nine women

1257
00:53:07,880 --> 00:53:10,360
can't make a baby in a month. Okay, you can't

1258
00:53:10,400 --> 00:53:12,320
if you're supposed to water And this is we're going

1259
00:53:12,400 --> 00:53:15,280
to step outside of our agricultural intelligence here, But if

1260
00:53:15,320 --> 00:53:17,840
there's whatever volume of water you're supposed to give to

1261
00:53:18,079 --> 00:53:19,800
a tree in a month, you can't give it all

1262
00:53:19,840 --> 00:53:21,960
to it in a day. Yeah, I don't think you can.

1263
00:53:22,039 --> 00:53:23,920
Maybe maybe you can. No, you kill the seed.

1264
00:53:23,960 --> 00:53:24,119
Speaker 3: Man.

1265
00:53:24,599 --> 00:53:27,760
Speaker 1: Well, trees have different water prosorption. But like with certain plants,

1266
00:53:27,800 --> 00:53:30,239
like let's talk about like potted plant or some small plants,

1267
00:53:30,519 --> 00:53:32,639
you've got to give it water consistently. You can't give

1268
00:53:32,639 --> 00:53:34,079
it all the water in one day. There you go,

1269
00:53:34,159 --> 00:53:36,679
let's stick with what we know potted plants. Great. Yeah,

1270
00:53:37,000 --> 00:53:37,960
and that's exactly right.

1271
00:53:38,000 --> 00:53:41,000
Speaker 2: And so it sounds so obvious and simple, but like

1272
00:53:41,039 --> 00:53:42,840
I said, the example I was giving with my wife,

1273
00:53:43,079 --> 00:53:46,599
it seemed whenever this CBT guy was saying this to me,

1274
00:53:46,639 --> 00:53:48,559
I was like, he's like, you've got to create these things.

1275
00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:51,119
I was like, oh man, and that's I look back

1276
00:53:51,119 --> 00:53:53,440
at old Nick and I'm like, dude, you're an idiot.

1277
00:53:53,480 --> 00:53:55,079
Of course you had to do this because when you

1278
00:53:55,079 --> 00:53:57,239
were aware of them. Shaking my head, yes, yeah, you

1279
00:53:57,239 --> 00:53:59,360
didn't need to say that, bro, everybody our priority knew that.

1280
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:01,760
But thank you for reemphasizing that. Garrett loves to like

1281
00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:02,960
make sure I know how.

1282
00:54:02,800 --> 00:54:06,199
Speaker 1: Stupid I was previous than what a pathetic. Yeah.

1283
00:54:06,239 --> 00:54:08,199
Speaker 2: Every day I wake up and I ask myself, would

1284
00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:09,800
an idiot do that? And if the answer is yes,

1285
00:54:09,880 --> 00:54:11,679
I do not do that thing. Thank you Garrett, that's

1286
00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,119
all down to you. But the uh but but but

1287
00:54:14,199 --> 00:54:16,079
once now that I look at the principle, I'm like, well,

1288
00:54:16,079 --> 00:54:17,840
of course, And I'm saying this for people out there

1289
00:54:17,840 --> 00:54:19,639
because it's like, when you realize the principle, you're like,

1290
00:54:19,679 --> 00:54:22,440
this is so obvious to you. But to people who

1291
00:54:22,440 --> 00:54:24,760
are not not who are don't know the principle, what

1292
00:54:24,800 --> 00:54:26,960
are they doing? What I was doing before bumping into it.

1293
00:54:27,079 --> 00:54:28,280
I just don't feel connection.

1294
00:54:28,519 --> 00:54:30,519
Speaker 1: What did I have? All the negative emotions?

1295
00:54:30,639 --> 00:54:33,159
Speaker 2: Well, maybe we're not meant to be maybe blah blah

1296
00:54:33,199 --> 00:54:36,000
blah blah, all wrong because I didn't know principles. So

1297
00:54:36,199 --> 00:54:38,639
honor proximity and gee, this is the one that I

1298
00:54:38,639 --> 00:54:39,920
think a lot of people would miss out on. But

1299
00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:43,079
it's so obvious when you know it. Health, Uh, we

1300
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:47,599
need it. We need a gong here, pastor Keith, Yep,

1301
00:54:47,679 --> 00:54:50,400
great quest. The best gift you can give another person

1302
00:54:50,519 --> 00:54:53,119
is a healthy you. So good Yep it's and then

1303
00:54:53,119 --> 00:54:55,559
that's and we all know this. Go try and have

1304
00:54:55,599 --> 00:54:58,000
a great relationship with a person who's got you know,

1305
00:54:58,079 --> 00:55:01,239
mental they're mentally ill or whatever, they've got mental health

1306
00:55:01,239 --> 00:55:03,760
disorders whatever. The correct way to say that is. And

1307
00:55:03,880 --> 00:55:07,119
they also get physically sick all the time. Really hard

1308
00:55:07,159 --> 00:55:09,320
to have a deep, meaningful relationship with that person. Why

1309
00:55:09,679 --> 00:55:12,679
because they need a lot Like they like you and

1310
00:55:12,679 --> 00:55:15,039
I were talking about this beforehand. Our friendship continues to

1311
00:55:15,079 --> 00:55:17,280
grow and get deeper and deeper, which I really appreciate

1312
00:55:17,559 --> 00:55:19,440
what you never have to worry about and what I've

1313
00:55:19,480 --> 00:55:21,679
never had to worry about with you, I've never once gone.

1314
00:55:21,840 --> 00:55:23,599
I wonder if Garrett'll be up for this. I wonder

1315
00:55:23,639 --> 00:55:25,519
what mood he's in, will he be like this?

1316
00:55:25,880 --> 00:55:27,519
Speaker 1: I've never I know how you're going to be. Because

1317
00:55:27,519 --> 00:55:30,000
health is you know, let's talk about some of the

1318
00:55:30,000 --> 00:55:32,119
areas of health really could just as we wrap this up,

1319
00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,599
you have emotional health, correct, right, and so that is,

1320
00:55:35,760 --> 00:55:39,559
don't be emotionally diseased, but also have some emotional strength

1321
00:55:39,599 --> 00:55:42,320
to you that you can absorb things that might produce

1322
00:55:42,320 --> 00:55:45,280
an emotional response. But I have the ability to carry this,

1323
00:55:45,320 --> 00:55:48,199
to withstand it and be a strength to my partner

1324
00:55:48,280 --> 00:55:50,639
to be to be wonderful from it. Like, because what

1325
00:55:50,760 --> 00:55:54,199
is health like? Health like? If you look at health

1326
00:55:54,280 --> 00:55:56,639
in a person, you look at health and an animal,

1327
00:55:57,079 --> 00:56:00,000
it is both beauty and strength at the same time. Yeah,

1328
00:56:00,320 --> 00:56:04,239
if you are weak or in certain characteristics un beautiful.

1329
00:56:04,400 --> 00:56:07,000
You're not healthy right right. When you're healthy, you look

1330
00:56:07,039 --> 00:56:09,199
the best, you feel the best. You're the most capable,

1331
00:56:09,320 --> 00:56:11,119
right and that is the best gift that you can

1332
00:56:11,159 --> 00:56:12,000
give to somebody else.

1333
00:56:12,079 --> 00:56:14,039
Speaker 2: Yeah, because if I was going to oversimplify it, which

1334
00:56:14,079 --> 00:56:16,360
I do like to do, what a sick person needs

1335
00:56:16,440 --> 00:56:18,519
is they is they need a lot they need to take.

1336
00:56:18,599 --> 00:56:20,440
Speaker 1: When you're healthy, what can you do? You can give?

1337
00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:21,599
And that's what I'm saying.

1338
00:56:21,599 --> 00:56:24,039
Speaker 2: The healthier you are, the reason you have better relationships

1339
00:56:24,079 --> 00:56:25,199
is because you're more able to give.

1340
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:27,000
Speaker 1: Now when you have two people that are able to give.

1341
00:56:27,280 --> 00:56:29,320
Speaker 2: The point I was making about our friendship, you never

1342
00:56:29,360 --> 00:56:30,719
wonder how I'm going to turn up either, I was

1343
00:56:30,719 --> 00:56:31,800
saying to you. I was like, I can't remember the

1344
00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:34,400
last time I asked you, hey, gee, what do you like?

1345
00:56:34,480 --> 00:56:37,159
I need help? It just doesn't happen. We talk about

1346
00:56:37,159 --> 00:56:39,440
a lot of fun stuff when we get together. It's great.

1347
00:56:39,480 --> 00:56:41,039
We both come in healthy and we get to talk

1348
00:56:41,039 --> 00:56:44,519
about like taking ground, advancing the Kingdom of God.

1349
00:56:43,960 --> 00:56:45,519
Speaker 1: Big ideas. I love it.

1350
00:56:45,519 --> 00:56:47,519
Speaker 2: It's so much fun because we're both healthy, we're both

1351
00:56:47,559 --> 00:56:49,800
able to give to what the vision and the purpose

1352
00:56:49,800 --> 00:56:51,000
that God's put us together.

1353
00:56:50,760 --> 00:56:53,559
Speaker 1: For, which which comes back to what is a great relationship?

1354
00:56:53,679 --> 00:56:56,159
We make each other better? Correct, it's better that we're

1355
00:56:56,239 --> 00:56:57,360
together than that we're apart.

1356
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:00,079
Speaker 2: And that's the power of principles just in relationship and

1357
00:57:00,079 --> 00:57:02,239
when you know it, so when you're looking at your relationships,

1358
00:57:02,480 --> 00:57:06,199
honor proximity health, this starts like if you're sitting there

1359
00:57:06,199 --> 00:57:08,119
going like, well, you know, I really value this person.

1360
00:57:08,360 --> 00:57:11,239
We get regular time, but it's still not great. What's

1361
00:57:11,280 --> 00:57:13,800
their health like? What's your health like? When you come

1362
00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:15,800
into the relationship, are you going like, oh, and the

1363
00:57:15,800 --> 00:57:17,440
first thing y'all do is just dump on each other

1364
00:57:17,480 --> 00:57:20,840
for fifteen minutes, Probably not going to be the great

1365
00:57:20,840 --> 00:57:23,599
relationship you want, because you know, if you've got to

1366
00:57:23,599 --> 00:57:25,119
both suck the energy out of the room before you

1367
00:57:25,159 --> 00:57:27,440
can then start to build some that's a hard relationship

1368
00:57:27,480 --> 00:57:29,440
to have. And when you understand these things, you start

1369
00:57:29,440 --> 00:57:31,400
to look at your relationships and go oh, okay, and

1370
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:33,840
what happens It makes sense. You know why you feel

1371
00:57:33,880 --> 00:57:35,800
closer to some people than others, and why you have

1372
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:37,880
great relationship with some and not with others. That's the

1373
00:57:37,920 --> 00:57:39,639
power of principles just in one way, and I hope

1374
00:57:39,639 --> 00:57:42,400
that everybody out there is encouraged now that they can

1375
00:57:42,440 --> 00:57:42,840
go out there.

1376
00:57:42,880 --> 00:57:46,159
Speaker 1: So gee wrap So as we wrap up principles for today, right,

1377
00:57:46,199 --> 00:57:48,119
we didn't just talk about relationships. But I want you

1378
00:57:48,159 --> 00:57:51,880
to walk away with is this mindset of principles where

1379
00:57:51,880 --> 00:57:54,199
you can look at your life and say, Okay, even

1380
00:57:54,239 --> 00:57:57,639
if I don't understand what governs outcomes, I know that

1381
00:57:57,679 --> 00:58:01,000
the outcomes in my life are governed. So if I

1382
00:58:01,079 --> 00:58:03,679
can put myself in a place where I have a

1383
00:58:03,719 --> 00:58:06,079
deep relationship with God, I know who I am. I'm

1384
00:58:06,079 --> 00:58:08,880
not questioning my father. I don't think my father's as

1385
00:58:09,119 --> 00:58:12,400
Bruce Almighty said, God with a magnifying glass. And I'm

1386
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:14,880
the aunt when you don't look at your life that way.

1387
00:58:15,000 --> 00:58:16,840
When you know, like man, God is a great plan

1388
00:58:16,920 --> 00:58:19,159
for me, and I'm meant to succeed. All I've got

1389
00:58:19,199 --> 00:58:21,440
to do is understand the math. If you can get

1390
00:58:21,480 --> 00:58:25,599
that mindset right, then you add to it consistency. Your

1391
00:58:25,679 --> 00:58:28,679
life becomes a formula where you know you are inevitable

1392
00:58:28,880 --> 00:58:32,400
and ultimately, no matter what I do, I'm going to succeed.
