Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction unplugged because we will always say
Speaker 1: yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes.
Speaker 1: So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged.
Speaker 1: My daily goal is to do everything I can to
Speaker 1: spend absolutely no time in my past. Then again, life
Speaker 1: happens and it delivers to me a phone call from
Speaker 1: a fellow broadcaster that I've known for thirty nine years,
Speaker 1: and you can't help but jump into that adventure driven
Speaker 1: by your past, to poke fun up, to continue releasing
Speaker 1: steam from misguided decisions, and to openly prepare ourselves for
Speaker 1: what he called the silver years, which I could not
Speaker 1: bite into. Huh uh. My inner attitude doesn't see a
Speaker 1: silver generation in the mirror. Maybe I would if I
Speaker 1: spend more time being part of that past that I
Speaker 1: don't like. I stay free of it. I get excited
Speaker 1: about each day gives me something new to learn. It's
Speaker 1: an automatic because I'm open to it. Just give it
Speaker 1: to me. Sure there'll probably be changed, but I'm okay
Speaker 1: with that. I'll learn from that moment of change. I
Speaker 1: think age has a lot to do with the altitude
Speaker 1: of your attitude. It's not that we think young, because
Speaker 1: there's nothing worse than bumping up with somebody who is
Speaker 1: still looking like they did when they were a kid,
Speaker 1: but just they have crinkles on their face. Ah, it's
Speaker 1: stuck in their past. Grow with your future, Grow in taste, fashion,
Speaker 1: sound and smell. Stay away from your childhood favorites. Heys Aerow.
Speaker 1: This is the daily mass, chronological walk through an everyday world.
Speaker 1: I am a daily writer, the silent wolf. That means
Speaker 1: I sit out here on the sidelines. I watch, I study,
Speaker 1: I listen, and then we activate. This is the daily mess.
Speaker 1: I spoke with an expert yesterday on seasonal effective disorder
Speaker 1: SAD or SAD. Most people have no clue that they
Speaker 1: actually suffer from SAD. They blame their moodiness, overeating, and
Speaker 1: reasons for pushing people away on everything, but what it
Speaker 1: truly could be. Most people who suffer from seasonal effective
Speaker 1: disorder have extremely lovable dogs that know about the hidden
Speaker 1: sickness and provide those with sad companionship that other humans
Speaker 1: can't penetrate. Dan Granger wasn't shocked to hear how many
Speaker 1: lights I have turned on every morning, every afternoon, and
Speaker 1: at night. The slightest thing such as a shadow can
Speaker 1: swiftly reshuffle the foundation of sturdiness. He spoke of two
Speaker 1: questions to always ask what is the moodiness about? And
Speaker 1: how is it playing out in your moment of now?
Speaker 1: That one hit me? How is it playing out in
Speaker 1: my moment of now? Dan says these two questions serve
Speaker 1: as a tool that will return you back to the
Speaker 1: presence of what is going on right now? Ask questions daily. Write.
Speaker 1: Be aware that you aren't a constantly grumpy person. It
Speaker 1: takes a lot of awareness to get yourself through this storm.
Speaker 1: It's called SAD seasonal effective disorder. Do you feel like
Speaker 1: you're eating too much? Are you pushing people away? Do
Speaker 1: you feel like that you're moody or people are accusing
Speaker 1: you of always been moody? Is there enough light in
Speaker 1: your life? Seasonal effective disorder? Now, once again I do
Speaker 1: light everything up. You should see how bright it is
Speaker 1: in this studio today. I think it's brighter in here
Speaker 1: than it is out there outside this window, inside this
Speaker 1: forest in South Charlotte, North Carolina. It is so bright
Speaker 1: because I need to have light. It gives me energy
Speaker 1: even when I'm daily writing or doing my defrag journal.
Speaker 1: The lights it's not just one lamp on me, there
Speaker 1: are four lamps on me. And the downside of that
Speaker 1: is it's hot. It's hot. I mean you think it's
Speaker 1: hot outside. It is hot sitting in that chair because
Speaker 1: I have so much light on. And the way to
Speaker 1: understand it and to get by it is through awareness.
Speaker 1: We can make this happen. And having a dog really
Speaker 1: does help out because she or he is very much
Speaker 1: aware of if you're eating too much, if you're sleeping
Speaker 1: too much, if you're actually finding yourself in moodiness, and
Speaker 1: the biggest one probably pushing people away. Look into it,
Speaker 1: go ask a professional, because it really does exist. It's
Speaker 1: just that people won't talk about it. Seasonal effective disorder.
Speaker 1: I'm Eryl and that's the daily mess.
