1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,680
Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction, unplugged because we will always say

2
00:00:03,759 --> 00:00:06,919
yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.

3
00:00:07,240 --> 00:00:10,320
So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged.

4
00:00:10,439 --> 00:00:13,839
Well here we are right here. So many people would say,

5
00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,000
so where is here? And is your here anything like

6
00:00:17,120 --> 00:00:19,719
my here? And if it's not, how did we even

7
00:00:19,760 --> 00:00:23,719
get here? I've always wondered that how did we get here?

8
00:00:24,399 --> 00:00:26,960
I was just on the phone with Angelo Cataldi. He's

9
00:00:26,960 --> 00:00:29,600
one of the biggest, most powerful sports figures when it

10
00:00:29,600 --> 00:00:32,479
comes to announcing, and he's out of Philly and he's

11
00:00:32,719 --> 00:00:36,280
at that moment, that place of here where everything that

12
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:40,320
made him in the past is gone. He's walking away

13
00:00:40,320 --> 00:00:42,039
from it. But he's got a brand new book out

14
00:00:42,039 --> 00:00:44,240
called Loud, And you have to wonder about your own

15
00:00:44,280 --> 00:00:49,719
personal here, Where is here? And how did we get here?

16
00:00:50,079 --> 00:00:52,439
Are you taking notes at all? Do you put things

17
00:00:52,479 --> 00:00:55,320
down like little breadcrumbs just so you can get back

18
00:00:55,439 --> 00:00:59,119
to here when it's time to share your story? Hey, Sarah,

19
00:00:59,119 --> 00:01:00,679
this is the choice. This is what I was writing

20
00:01:00,679 --> 00:01:03,200
while the sun was waking up on a brilliant new day.

21
00:01:03,399 --> 00:01:08,840
Today we're reading from December seventh, twenty twenty three do

22
00:01:08,879 --> 00:01:13,760
we have too many choices? Having a variety of everything

23
00:01:14,159 --> 00:01:19,040
tends to play with identifying where things are. Choice overload

24
00:01:19,159 --> 00:01:21,439
is what the experts call it, and it does have

25
00:01:21,519 --> 00:01:24,840
an effect on everything that we come in contact with,

26
00:01:25,239 --> 00:01:31,000
such as making a decision, love interests, personal financial decisions.

27
00:01:31,319 --> 00:01:36,840
Too many choices, it preoccupies the mind, so we make

28
00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:41,680
ourselves available for more choices. These same experts that call

29
00:01:41,760 --> 00:01:44,879
it choice overload, they say that in one twenty four

30
00:01:44,879 --> 00:01:49,120
hour period, we literally have thousands of choices that we make.

31
00:01:49,879 --> 00:01:52,719
Look at how your anxiety level races to the top

32
00:01:52,719 --> 00:01:55,079
of the world the very second you walk into a

33
00:01:55,079 --> 00:01:59,079
grocery store or a mall. There's so many things to

34
00:01:59,159 --> 00:02:02,519
take in. It's best to have a plan and remain

35
00:02:02,640 --> 00:02:08,560
loyal to that plan. Convince yourself that you can't have everything.

36
00:02:09,199 --> 00:02:11,560
It's not healthy, and you end up spending way too

37
00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,879
much money and losing a lot of time. Now we've

38
00:02:14,879 --> 00:02:17,479
got two more problems to deal with, a loss of

39
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:21,199
time and a loss of money. The more we want,

40
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:24,439
the less room we have. When was the last time

41
00:02:24,479 --> 00:02:27,759
someone said, I'm gonna go do some window shopping. I

42
00:02:27,759 --> 00:02:30,400
think the closest thing that we have to window shopping today. Hey,

43
00:02:30,680 --> 00:02:33,000
I'm gonna step away from the world right now. I'm

44
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:35,479
gonna go look at Amazon, just to see what's on

45
00:02:35,639 --> 00:02:40,360
Amazon right now. The things that we do to ourselves

46
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,800
and don't even know it, and we become angry in

47
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:48,560
places of here without realizing that it wasn't a person

48
00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:52,319
that made you angry, but rather the choices that we

49
00:02:52,439 --> 00:02:56,400
have made. We make thousands of them in one twenty

50
00:02:56,400 --> 00:03:00,560
four hour period, and you wonder why your mindsets are

51
00:03:00,639 --> 00:03:06,080
so cracked up, broken, tossed to the side. You glued

52
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,919
a couple back together, but it's just not the same

53
00:03:08,919 --> 00:03:13,240
old planet anymore. It's the choices. We have, way too

54
00:03:13,240 --> 00:03:16,840
many choices. One way that I enjoy working on my

55
00:03:17,000 --> 00:03:18,960
choices and all of those that are trying to get

56
00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,400
inside of me, is I sit in a very quiet,

57
00:03:22,960 --> 00:03:28,280
no digital world and just listen. I do write. It's

58
00:03:28,319 --> 00:03:31,439
called a defrag journal, and I try to take all

59
00:03:31,479 --> 00:03:34,199
of those choices that have already made. By seven o'clock

60
00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:41,000
in the morning, and I say, no, no, maybe finding

61
00:03:41,719 --> 00:03:46,159
your calm. I'm eron the silent Wolf. And that's what

62
00:03:46,199 --> 00:03:47,879
I was writing while the sun was waking up on

63
00:03:47,919 --> 00:03:49,039
a brilliant new day.
