1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,319 Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction unplugged because we will always say 2 00:00:03,359 --> 00:00:06,440 yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes, 3 00:00:06,759 --> 00:00:09,480 so turn it into a tool. This is Arrow unplugged. 4 00:00:09,800 --> 00:00:11,880 I really do want to know what goes through a 5 00:00:11,880 --> 00:00:14,839 person's mind in the moments before they set aside. What 6 00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:18,879 is right to participate with a physical act of theft. 7 00:00:19,960 --> 00:00:23,920 Is it a sense of confidence or fear? What becomes 8 00:00:23,960 --> 00:00:27,960 the action due to a need to survive? More importantly, 9 00:00:28,839 --> 00:00:32,200 why do I feel enormous pain when falling witness to 10 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:37,159 a theft? Research shows that committing the crime is living 11 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:41,520 off their dopamine. It causes pleasurable feelings. It's the brain's 12 00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:45,759 opioid system. People steal out of a need, pere pressure, 13 00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:50,479 and psychological disorders. As for my emotions, the act of 14 00:00:50,520 --> 00:00:55,600 other people stealing violates trust. It's completely one hundred percent 15 00:00:55,719 --> 00:00:59,320 natural to become angry or hurt when falling witness to 16 00:00:59,359 --> 00:01:03,119 a theft. The saddest part about the theft is how 17 00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:07,599 every group is doing it, from young to old, rich 18 00:01:07,680 --> 00:01:12,159 to poor. Everybody is doing it. My next question is 19 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,599 how do they feel when they bite into that pizza 20 00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:19,359 that they just swiped? Hey? Tarrow This is the Daily Mess, 21 00:01:19,439 --> 00:01:23,519 a chronological walkthrough in everyday world. I am a daily writer. 22 00:01:23,719 --> 00:01:27,200 I am affected, just like everybody else. I'm just willing 23 00:01:27,200 --> 00:01:30,040 to talk about it, to start the conversation, maybe to 24 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:34,599 help heal in other people's silences. This is the daily mess. 25 00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:39,760 Three back to back days of springtime rain. Seeking the 26 00:01:39,799 --> 00:01:45,280 path that leads towards something positive mindsets and mood swings, 27 00:01:45,760 --> 00:01:49,879 careful decisions and planning. But what's waiting for us in 28 00:01:49,920 --> 00:01:54,319 the public? How does the weather affect other people? Being 29 00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:58,159 present and mindful may work for me, but what about 30 00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:01,400 those that we meet along the way. That's why we've 31 00:02:01,400 --> 00:02:05,799 got to be aware. Awareness is key to everything. Personally speaking, 32 00:02:06,079 --> 00:02:09,919 I treat every encounter like approaching a dog. Don't ever 33 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,840 assume that the person you're walking up to is going 34 00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:17,400 to accept you. There's always a chance they're gonna bite. 35 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,439 My goal is not to provoke them, but it's to 36 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,479 lean into my own walk and way without letting their 37 00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:29,000 instant storms spoil my process. Your greatest friend can instantly 38 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:34,159 become your worst enemy. Patience practicing is an essential tool. 39 00:02:34,560 --> 00:02:36,840 If you're feeling uneasy due to three days of rain, 40 00:02:37,560 --> 00:02:40,159 know in your heart there's a lot of other people 41 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:44,439 that feel the same. We talk about awareness a lot. 42 00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:47,439 Awareness is that one thing that we were taught as 43 00:02:47,520 --> 00:02:51,400 martial artists. You don't go where the fight is. You 44 00:02:51,479 --> 00:02:54,719 become aware of where it is and you walk around it. 45 00:02:55,719 --> 00:02:58,759 The same is true about our everyday walk. You know 46 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,039 where the tough spots are. Don't try to be the superhero. 47 00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,560 See the moment, decide in your moment. Nope, I'm going 48 00:03:06,599 --> 00:03:09,520 this way instead because I'm going to protect my heart. 49 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:12,240 I know how I'm going to react if I get 50 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:16,400 involved with that. My father was adamant about that. Oh 51 00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:19,479 he would always say, do not be with that group 52 00:03:19,520 --> 00:03:23,159 of people, Dad, they're my friends. I said, do not. 53 00:03:23,919 --> 00:03:25,879 What he saw was that there was probably going to 54 00:03:25,960 --> 00:03:28,599 be trouble. And you know what, one hundred percent of 55 00:03:28,599 --> 00:03:31,400 the time, my father was right. And then I sat 56 00:03:31,439 --> 00:03:35,000 there in my bedroom going, why did I just listen 57 00:03:35,039 --> 00:03:37,759 to the dude? Because he's lived this life before me, 58 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:42,199 he knows any new and to this day, in his spirit, 59 00:03:42,439 --> 00:03:45,240 he's always tapping me on the shoulder. Dude, Dude, dude, 60 00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:48,960 I wouldn't do it. I wouldn't do it. So when 61 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:52,199 you have days where there's three days or more of rain, 62 00:03:52,639 --> 00:03:55,360 the weather isn't perfect, and even when it's too hot 63 00:03:55,439 --> 00:03:58,960 outside and you are questioning your steps because you just 64 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:03,039 don't feel right on the end inside no through awareness 65 00:04:03,680 --> 00:04:07,280 that you're not alone, your best friend could easily become 66 00:04:07,400 --> 00:04:10,680 your worst enemy. I'm ERL and that's the daily mess.
