1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:02,759
Speaker 1: Somewhere along the lines, we got it mixed up. We

2
00:00:02,839 --> 00:00:07,280
think that creativity should be associated with chefs and doctors

3
00:00:07,280 --> 00:00:11,359
and artists and writers and musicians. Creativity is in everything

4
00:00:11,919 --> 00:00:15,519
that you do, especially the way that you think unplugged,

5
00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:18,280
because we will always say yes to creativity totally uncut

6
00:00:18,320 --> 00:00:20,719
because we all make mistakes. So turn it into a tool.

7
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:24,920
This is arrow unplugged. Where do you go? Where do

8
00:00:25,000 --> 00:00:28,719
you go? When uncertainty has creeped back into your life?

9
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:32,719
You would think that with two years of the COVID lockdown,

10
00:00:33,000 --> 00:00:37,399
we would have this uncertainty thing under control. But the

11
00:00:37,439 --> 00:00:42,640
global headlines continuously pound on our hearts and souls and

12
00:00:42,679 --> 00:00:47,640
you're going, please no more. You try to disconnect from it,

13
00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,039
and it feels really bad when other people are talking

14
00:00:51,119 --> 00:00:54,399
about things in the headlines and you're going, ah, I

15
00:00:54,479 --> 00:00:57,479
got nothing to bring to this conversation. I got nothing.

16
00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,200
So you jump back into that circle again and here

17
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,159
we go. Uncertainty is all over the place. How do

18
00:01:07,239 --> 00:01:10,400
you make it through your personal storm? Hey? Sarah, this

19
00:01:10,519 --> 00:01:13,239
is the Daily Mess, a chronological walk through an everyday world.

20
00:01:13,319 --> 00:01:18,000
I am a daily writer that helps me identify, to

21
00:01:18,120 --> 00:01:22,959
deal with, to become aware of to heal. I don't know.

22
00:01:23,680 --> 00:01:25,239
I think I need to do a lot more writing,

23
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,920
and then I can go back through those pages and

24
00:01:26,959 --> 00:01:30,040
see if there was an inch covered, or maybe even

25
00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,319
just a speck of dust like that of a mustard seed.

26
00:01:34,239 --> 00:01:37,680
But writing is a great way to deal with uncertainty.

27
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:41,719
Make yourself aware of it. This is the daily mess.

28
00:01:42,239 --> 00:01:45,040
We all know what's required when it comes to flossing

29
00:01:45,159 --> 00:01:47,280
our teeth. Not everybody wants to do it because it

30
00:01:47,319 --> 00:01:49,159
seems to be a pain in the butt. But they've

31
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:51,480
got these new tools. You can go and get in

32
00:01:51,480 --> 00:01:54,079
there and get that junk out. How can we learn

33
00:01:54,120 --> 00:01:58,959
to floss in between our personal experiences? There's got to

34
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:03,879
be a ton of crud collecting, more crud in places

35
00:02:03,920 --> 00:02:07,599
that could lead to unexpected creuddy days with everything and

36
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,159
everyone to blame. When you get into a disagreement with somebody,

37
00:02:13,080 --> 00:02:16,680
is it really about what you think it is? Or

38
00:02:16,800 --> 00:02:20,639
is it the crud that's been collecting that gets in

39
00:02:20,719 --> 00:02:22,639
the way and you have to figure out a way

40
00:02:22,759 --> 00:02:27,919
to get that stuff out. If we don't floss between

41
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,319
our daily experiences, there's going to be a day that

42
00:02:32,360 --> 00:02:37,479
we're going to realize that relationship was totally decaying right

43
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:41,080
there in front of us. Sure we talked about it before.

44
00:02:41,159 --> 00:02:45,000
Daily writing is an amazing tool to put stuff out there,

45
00:02:45,520 --> 00:02:48,960
but through twenty nine years of writing experience, it's only

46
00:02:49,080 --> 00:02:54,879
part of the flossing. Writing tends to slowly loosen things up.

47
00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:58,159
The next step would have to be to rinse out

48
00:02:58,439 --> 00:03:02,960
the thoughts. That's a great right, so is brushing our

49
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:06,520
wisdom and questions, but it's still not going to create

50
00:03:06,560 --> 00:03:10,719
the perfect smile. Awareness helps to polish the damaged areas,

51
00:03:11,159 --> 00:03:14,479
but you still need to maintain a full daily discipline

52
00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:21,759
to really find your way toward peace. I love talking

53
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:25,319
with older people, not because I am one, but I

54
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,400
love talking to them about being middle aged and above

55
00:03:29,520 --> 00:03:32,960
and what it took to get to that moment, all

56
00:03:32,960 --> 00:03:37,840
the mistakes that were uncovered and faced, you know, the journey,

57
00:03:38,439 --> 00:03:41,400
the walk, the way. We've got to figure out a

58
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:45,759
way how to get in there and really cleanse out

59
00:03:46,400 --> 00:03:50,639
the crud because it is collecting, and every day we

60
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,680
pick up social media, it's more and more and more.

61
00:03:53,719 --> 00:03:56,400
It may not be your personal experiences because what we're

62
00:03:56,400 --> 00:04:00,560
doing is we're collecting other people's bad days because we

63
00:04:00,639 --> 00:04:03,520
want to compare our bad days to their bad days. Oh,

64
00:04:03,560 --> 00:04:07,439
their bad day is horrible compared to mine. So today's

65
00:04:07,479 --> 00:04:10,800
day for me is okay, I'll accept it because it

66
00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:14,080
could have been as bad as their bad day. We

67
00:04:14,159 --> 00:04:16,759
got to floss it out, and I realized that being

68
00:04:16,800 --> 00:04:19,160
part of a team at your essential job, what is

69
00:04:19,240 --> 00:04:23,000
required for you to achieve the success that they want?

70
00:04:23,319 --> 00:04:25,720
They want it. All you want is to collect a

71
00:04:25,720 --> 00:04:30,879
paycheck and go home. Creating a career is an ambition

72
00:04:31,120 --> 00:04:35,639
that has been poisoned by other people's crud. Did you

73
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:38,439
go to college? Did you spend a lot of time

74
00:04:38,519 --> 00:04:43,319
in your studies to become this? Only to realize you

75
00:04:43,399 --> 00:04:46,720
became that? And it's like, why didn't I see the

76
00:04:46,800 --> 00:04:51,439
signs during the early moments as a third degree black belt?

77
00:04:52,279 --> 00:04:55,079
Never once did I ever think about how the body

78
00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:59,240
would change so dramatically after a certain age that it

79
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:03,839
truly became AI an internal journey and not a physical journey.

80
00:05:04,120 --> 00:05:08,360
Sure I can still do the exercises, Sure my memory

81
00:05:08,439 --> 00:05:11,920
is still rock solid. But to go in there to

82
00:05:11,959 --> 00:05:14,480
do the pum says, or to go into tournaments, oh,

83
00:05:14,480 --> 00:05:16,879
I'd get my ass kicked. There's no way because the

84
00:05:16,920 --> 00:05:21,240
body has aged, We've matured, I've had a lot of

85
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,839
crud with other crud mixed in with other crud, and

86
00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:30,360
it's decayed a lot of relationships. They call it ghosting

87
00:05:30,959 --> 00:05:35,600
these days. How many people have you ghosted because their

88
00:05:35,680 --> 00:05:42,920
weight is too much crud for your weight? Writing talking

89
00:05:42,959 --> 00:05:45,800
about but if you talk, you have to be able

90
00:05:45,839 --> 00:05:50,680
to accept other people's opinions. How much crud do you

91
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:56,000
have in between your experiences to accept them. I'm Marrow

92
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,680
and that's the daily mess.
