00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say

2
00:00:03,279 --> 00:00:06,639
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.

3
00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:09,039
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow

4
00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:12,560
unplugged stream thinking. It's learning how to trust what's in

5
00:00:12,560 --> 00:00:16,039
your present. It's going to require some practice. Just one

6
00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,839
sheet of paper every day ten minutes write about whatever

7
00:00:18,920 --> 00:00:21,760
is moving through your moment of what is right now,

8
00:00:22,359 --> 00:00:26,079
Absolutely no judgment. You see. Stream thinking sharpens your skills

9
00:00:26,079 --> 00:00:28,719
as a listener, as a communicator, and as an activator.

10
00:00:29,399 --> 00:00:33,359
Learning how to trust what is right now. This is

11
00:00:33,399 --> 00:00:38,119
stream thinking today. We're reading from April first, twenty twenty three.

12
00:00:38,280 --> 00:00:41,880
Has fitting in become the new uncool thing to do?

13
00:00:42,520 --> 00:00:45,320
To fit in at work means working well and communicating

14
00:00:45,439 --> 00:00:51,079
with others, keeping a positive attitude. It's very essential. Fitting

15
00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:54,320
in at work is expected because we tend to give

16
00:00:54,479 --> 00:00:57,799
more when we're being cooperative with each other. If you

17
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:00,640
don't feel like that you fit in the the experts

18
00:01:01,000 --> 00:01:03,520
they're saying, hey, it's probably a good idea that you

19
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,519
locate a new place of employment. The key tools are

20
00:01:07,560 --> 00:01:11,519
having the willingness to observe then imitate, because it's very

21
00:01:11,519 --> 00:01:15,000
easy to feel excluded at the job. While some may

22
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:18,599
say it's a lack of cultural skills, it can actually

23
00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,840
go deeper a lack of confidence or being too shy,

24
00:01:22,359 --> 00:01:27,120
And yes, employers can fire you for that. Ninety percent

25
00:01:27,239 --> 00:01:30,159
of all people have someone on the staff that they

26
00:01:30,319 --> 00:01:35,319
really don't like. You know what the professionals say, fake it,

27
00:01:36,519 --> 00:01:41,840
get over it. It is a way of life. Do

28
00:01:41,879 --> 00:01:43,719
you fit in? What do you do to make sure

29
00:01:43,719 --> 00:01:47,159
that you do fit in? Fitting in doesn't mean that

30
00:01:47,200 --> 00:01:49,319
you have to be the class clown or the class leader.

31
00:01:49,359 --> 00:01:52,719
Fitting in means that you're going to participate. All leaders

32
00:01:52,879 --> 00:01:56,439
have bosses above them. If they don't please those bosses,

33
00:01:56,599 --> 00:01:58,599
then it's going to trickle down to you. And sometimes

34
00:01:58,599 --> 00:02:00,840
it feels like those that are in show charge are

35
00:02:00,879 --> 00:02:03,400
basically just bullies. What in fact, all they're trying to

36
00:02:03,439 --> 00:02:07,879
do is to motivate you, participating with you by trying

37
00:02:07,879 --> 00:02:10,719
to fit in a moment where you might be down

38
00:02:10,879 --> 00:02:14,280
because things aren't going right. We don't know what's going

39
00:02:14,319 --> 00:02:16,439
on on the inside of your head, just as much

40
00:02:16,439 --> 00:02:18,080
as you don't know what's going on inside of me.

41
00:02:18,960 --> 00:02:21,479
But when we fit into each other's day and we

42
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:25,120
begin to respect each other's paths. Things will begin to

43
00:02:25,159 --> 00:02:29,960
grow because we begin to understand the truer personality. Fitting

44
00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,159
in for me has required one thing, and that is

45
00:02:33,599 --> 00:02:36,520
I know that I come from several different careers and

46
00:02:36,599 --> 00:02:40,080
several different layers of jobs. So what I try to

47
00:02:40,120 --> 00:02:42,879
do is that I sit with those that do want

48
00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,800
to fit in, and I invite them into my outside world.

49
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:49,400
Just last night, I did a four hour lecture. I

50
00:02:49,439 --> 00:02:52,800
invited a coworker from one of the essential jobs to

51
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:55,639
come and experience it. I asked him at the end,

52
00:02:56,199 --> 00:03:00,360
what did you learn tonight? He learned. He learned that

53
00:03:00,439 --> 00:03:02,879
I really do work one on one with trying to

54
00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:07,360
get people's dreams to pop open and blossom. At the

55
00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:10,479
other essential job, he doesn't get to see that because

56
00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,439
there are so many people above me that I just

57
00:03:13,479 --> 00:03:17,800
don't fit into that environment. But instead of fighting that environment,

58
00:03:18,199 --> 00:03:22,120
I invite those there to come into my world. And

59
00:03:22,159 --> 00:03:25,919
that's where we fit in together. So don't be a

60
00:03:25,919 --> 00:03:28,560
bump on a log, don't be a judger, don't be

61
00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:35,159
a taker, invite people into your space. Fitting in becomes

62
00:03:35,159 --> 00:03:38,759
a part of the process. I'm arrow, and that's stream thinking.
