00:00:02.279 --> 00:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>So I am learning to take time for myself. I'm

2
00:00:09.199 --> 00:00:11.640
<v Speaker 1>realizing and many of us, just as we get older,

3
00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:18.760
<v Speaker 1>that what we do for a living isn't necessarily how

4
00:00:18.760 --> 00:00:23.480
<v Speaker 1>we wanna live. We may even enjoy our jobs and professions,

5
00:00:24.600 --> 00:00:27.160
<v Speaker 1>but it's just when you really realize there's more to

6
00:00:27.199 --> 00:00:30.679
<v Speaker 1>life than just your job and if you like it.

7
00:00:32.079 --> 00:00:35.439
<v Speaker 1>And I'm finding myself cause I can literally work twenty

8
00:00:35.439 --> 00:00:38.200
<v Speaker 1>four hours, seven days a week, and I work. That's

9
00:00:38.200 --> 00:00:40.479
<v Speaker 1>about that. I work a lot. I do sleep and

10
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:45.119
<v Speaker 1>everything like that. But I realize for me to be

11
00:00:45.159 --> 00:00:50.039
<v Speaker 1>able to give you guys and give everyone content, I

12
00:00:50.039 --> 00:00:54.880
<v Speaker 1>need to live life. I need to do something. So

13
00:00:54.960 --> 00:00:59.079
<v Speaker 1>I would say this last week, I've been super social,

14
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:03.640
<v Speaker 1>super social. I am very proud of myself. I mean,

15
00:01:03.679 --> 00:01:08.359
<v Speaker 1>I've actually carved out time for my friends. So I

16
00:01:08.400 --> 00:01:11.319
<v Speaker 1>saw Flomo at the beginning of the week and then

17
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:16.000
<v Speaker 1>we had lunch. It was great. And then I saw

18
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:20.519
<v Speaker 1>my friend Norm and then I saw Tony Moore talk

19
00:01:20.599 --> 00:01:25.920
<v Speaker 1>to Twin and ran to my friend Ian Buchanan from

20
00:01:25.920 --> 00:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>being out and mount So that was fun. On Tuesday,

21
00:01:29.519 --> 00:01:31.760
<v Speaker 1>then I saw my girl Marissa, went to her house.

22
00:01:31.799 --> 00:01:34.120
<v Speaker 1>We had food. We had calfun chicken, cafes so good.

23
00:01:34.159 --> 00:01:36.359
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, Hey, g I gave her birthday presents.

24
00:01:36.359 --> 00:01:39.200
<v Speaker 1>We had a great conversation. Here's funny I gave her.

25
00:01:39.239 --> 00:01:42.680

28
00:01:48.560 --> 00:01:50.120
<v Speaker 1>just getting together is really rough for me because I

29
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:53.200
<v Speaker 1>was so busy. But I saw Marissa. That was good.

30
00:01:54.040 --> 00:01:56.319

93
00:05:17.319 --> 00:05:19.600
<v Speaker 1>I wasn't going to go At first, I said no, James,

94
00:05:21.319 --> 00:05:23.560
<v Speaker 1>because I'm seeing light at the end of tunnels, like, James,

95
00:05:23.560 --> 00:05:26.879
<v Speaker 1>continue what you're doing, so lights to tell me because

96
00:05:27.279 --> 00:05:31.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna be gone most of November. I'm like, good,

97
00:05:31.240 --> 00:05:33.000
<v Speaker 1>still go in there because I work, Like the other

98
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:35.800
<v Speaker 1>day I did my mom's house, are garage, I have

99
00:05:35.879 --> 00:05:40.680
<v Speaker 1>jump off so like I'm seen, I'm starting to see movement.

100
00:05:42.199 --> 00:05:44.160
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to stop that. So I said, Okay,

101
00:05:45.240 --> 00:05:48.480
<v Speaker 1>now Tuesday Wednesday morning, Tuesday, and I might decide not

102
00:05:48.560 --> 00:05:54.639
<v Speaker 1>to go because I have a big organizing project and

103
00:05:54.639 --> 00:06:00.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm giving three days up of my life to do

104
00:06:00.439 --> 00:06:06.000
<v Speaker 1>this project. So I'm like, ooh, maybe I shouldn't go

105
00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:09.000
<v Speaker 1>back it because because I'm doing good, maybe I shouldn't

106
00:06:09.040 --> 00:06:13.519
<v Speaker 1>go back out there. And maybe I should take a

107
00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>break because we're getting there. I can always there's time.

108
00:06:17.800 --> 00:06:19.800
<v Speaker 1>I do have some time in November to go back

109
00:06:19.800 --> 00:06:22.279
<v Speaker 1>out there. I do. There's a couple of there's a

110
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:25.879
<v Speaker 1>couple of days I could go out there and do that.

111
00:06:27.279 --> 00:06:29.759
<v Speaker 1>But I was like, I probably should be. I shouldn't

112
00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:32.759
<v Speaker 1>overdo it. Maybe I should still stay home. So I'm

113
00:06:32.759 --> 00:06:34.319
<v Speaker 1>going back in for I see. You gotta things smarter

114
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:36.800
<v Speaker 1>or not harder too. My body's a little older, I

115
00:06:36.800 --> 00:06:38.959
<v Speaker 1>get I was. I was worn out from all the

116
00:06:38.959 --> 00:06:41.279
<v Speaker 1>manual labor I did this week. It's good for me.

117
00:06:41.360 --> 00:06:43.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm glad I did it, but I'm like, I need

118
00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.800
<v Speaker 1>I probably need to save my strength. Plus. So here's

119
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:51.160
<v Speaker 1>how it goes. Tuesday Wednesday, Monday, Tuesday Wednesday home, get

120
00:06:51.240 --> 00:06:54.240
<v Speaker 1>all of the sudden to get done for my business,

121
00:06:54.680 --> 00:07:00.120
<v Speaker 1>get all in order, get all done because Thursday I

122
00:06:59.839 --> 00:07:13.680
<v Speaker 1>have But on Thursday I have what you call it

123
00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:16.560
<v Speaker 1>for three hours. It could be it'll be like five

124
00:07:16.639 --> 00:07:18.920
<v Speaker 1>with travel and all stuff. I have a Y and

125
00:07:19.040 --> 00:07:21.439
<v Speaker 1>R event to go to and you're gonna rest of

126
00:07:21.480 --> 00:07:25.399
<v Speaker 1>the Tellerson City and so I'm assuming Thursday will be

127
00:07:25.480 --> 00:07:27.480
<v Speaker 1>my day of doing that and they would have a

128
00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:30.720
<v Speaker 1>video finished. I'd get putting that together putting that out

129
00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:35.920
<v Speaker 1>the whole Chamain. Then I was thinking Friday, we'll go

130
00:07:35.959 --> 00:07:39.120
<v Speaker 1>streach you on Friday. I say no, but I'm like, no,

131
00:07:39.120 --> 00:07:41.360
<v Speaker 1>I just to take the time off. So maybe I'll

132
00:07:41.360 --> 00:07:45.319
<v Speaker 1>make that my kind of time off. Saturday, I have

133
00:07:45.360 --> 00:07:49.399
<v Speaker 1>a zoom. I'll give myself together and ready. See now,

134
00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:51.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm thinking that's what I think I would take. I

135
00:07:51.120 --> 00:07:52.639
<v Speaker 1>think I see you talking to you guys. I'm thinking

136
00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:53.759
<v Speaker 1>that this is what you do to get older. You're

137
00:07:53.759 --> 00:07:56.279
<v Speaker 1>talking out. I'm not gonna go to Storgien this week,

138
00:07:56.680 --> 00:07:58.120
<v Speaker 1>but I don't want. I don't want to overdo it,

139
00:07:58.600 --> 00:08:00.160
<v Speaker 1>and there's things I need to get done. So I'm

140

00:08:34.399 --> 00:08:37.039
<v Speaker 1>for my trip to leave one a third. So I'm

150
00:08:37.039 --> 00:08:43.279
<v Speaker 1>you know, I'm like, okay, okay, this is working. We

151
00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:50.360
<v Speaker 1>were getting there. This is working. And then when i

152
00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:53.840
<v Speaker 1>come back, I'm home for like three or four days,

153
00:08:57.320 --> 00:08:59.120
<v Speaker 1>but I'm also but then I'm gone for a week.

154
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:02.840
<v Speaker 1>It's Satura's just go. But then I'm home for like

155
00:09:04.240 --> 00:09:07.840
<v Speaker 1>listen from like almost almost two weeks. So my thought

156
00:09:07.960 --> 00:09:15.759
<v Speaker 1>is like, Okay, I think I could do the storage

157
00:09:15.759 --> 00:09:20.360
<v Speaker 1>you did, then go back there, do some more, get

158
00:09:20.360 --> 00:09:22.399
<v Speaker 1>it cleared out whatever it's instance that week and then

159
00:09:23.840 --> 00:09:26.159
<v Speaker 1>and then an December and then had again. Then I

160
00:09:26.200 --> 00:09:28.879
<v Speaker 1>have December anyuay. So, but I'm also looking at also

161
00:09:29.039 --> 00:09:32.000
<v Speaker 1>vacations because even though I'm going to Indiana, it's gonna

162
00:09:32.000 --> 00:09:33.960
<v Speaker 1>be work. I'm going for work. I'm gonna try have

163
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:37.960
<v Speaker 1>some fun while I'm there. I'm going for work. Looking

164
00:09:38.000 --> 00:09:40.200
<v Speaker 1>at a cruise because cruises are like the one thing

165
00:09:40.279 --> 00:09:42.240
<v Speaker 1>that I could, you know, during the winter time, it's

166
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:45.399
<v Speaker 1>perfect ta get a little three day or somewhere, get

167
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.720
<v Speaker 1>me out of here for three days as a little

168
00:09:48.759 --> 00:09:53.399
<v Speaker 1>bonus for myself. Like James, you worked hard, it's it's

169
00:09:53.440 --> 00:09:56.159
<v Speaker 1>like here you go. So I think about that too. Actually,

170
00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:59.320
<v Speaker 1>for January, I give myself a little break. I worked

171
00:09:59.399 --> 00:10:03.480
<v Speaker 1>very hard this year. It's a thing for me. So

172
00:10:03.519 --> 00:10:05.000
<v Speaker 1>I think with that you said, look, it is that

173
00:10:05.080 --> 00:10:10.600
<v Speaker 1>you folks very important. But these are things you think

174
00:10:10.679 --> 00:10:12.759
<v Speaker 1>when you're when you're fifty plus and you're still working,

175
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:15.399
<v Speaker 1>these are things you think about. You have to think about,

176
00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:19.000
<v Speaker 1>and you have to figure out a balance between friendship

177
00:10:19.080 --> 00:10:22.960
<v Speaker 1>because friendships are very important even as you get older, friendships,

178
00:10:23.039 --> 00:10:27.320
<v Speaker 1>your own health, dividing and conquering, you know, whatever it

179
00:10:27.320 --> 00:10:32.399
<v Speaker 1>needs to be done. Also balancing out, working smarter, not harder.

180
00:10:32.519 --> 00:10:35.360
<v Speaker 1>All this stuff is part of it's part of life period.

181
00:10:35.399 --> 00:10:38.159
<v Speaker 1>But as you get a little older, it really makes

182
00:10:38.159 --> 00:10:42.720
<v Speaker 1>a difference, it really does. This is fifty plus, you're

183
00:10:42.759 --> 00:10:46.039
<v Speaker 1>on jail j media, I'm James ly Junior. Like comments

184
00:10:46.080 --> 00:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>describe and I what's watch you next time?
