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 --> 00:00:07,519 yes to creativity, totally uncut because we all make mistakes. 3 00:00:07,799 --> 00:00:10,919 So let's turn it into a tool. This is arrow unplugged. 4 00:00:11,039 --> 00:00:13,960 Do you ever just sit back and watch people, watch 5 00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:17,039 their body language, listen to how they are bringing their 6 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:19,600 sentences together. Is it a run on sentence? Is it 7 00:00:19,679 --> 00:00:21,960 something that Twitter has created inside their heart where it's 8 00:00:22,000 --> 00:00:25,039 just barely there and you're going a I didn't catch what 9 00:00:25,079 --> 00:00:27,679 you said. Can you make your thought a little bit 10 00:00:27,760 --> 00:00:29,760 longer so I can jump into the same swimming pool 11 00:00:29,760 --> 00:00:31,920 that you're in. But I mean the way that people 12 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:35,479 are walking around, we're getting number is what we're doing. 13 00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:39,960 And the question is how can we re energize the 14 00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:43,479 purpose and plan of why we need to pay attention 15 00:00:43,799 --> 00:00:47,880 to the process and progress of a planet that's going 16 00:00:47,920 --> 00:00:52,600 through tremendous amounts of changes. And we can't sit by 17 00:00:52,799 --> 00:00:56,759 and say I'm gonna let somebody else handle this, because 18 00:00:56,880 --> 00:00:59,600 that's what's going on. Those other people that are handling 19 00:00:59,640 --> 00:01:02,719 it are doing it wrong, which is causing some friction 20 00:01:03,159 --> 00:01:06,079 in every corner of the world. This is not a complaint. 21 00:01:06,079 --> 00:01:09,599 This is called awareness. Learning to understand what is in 22 00:01:09,640 --> 00:01:13,359 your surroundings, and how can you activate your own voice 23 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:17,359 to help bring peace of mind to the path, not 24 00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:20,920 just yours, but everything that's connected to it. Hence arrow. 25 00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:23,200 This is the daily Mess, a chronological walk through an 26 00:01:23,200 --> 00:01:26,400 everyday world. I am a daily writer, the silent wolf. 27 00:01:26,439 --> 00:01:29,200 That means I sit on the side and I listen. 28 00:01:29,760 --> 00:01:32,879 I participate in ways that do not cause friction. But 29 00:01:32,959 --> 00:01:35,519 what I want to do is I want to create conversation. 30 00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:37,480 I want to be able to go in and study. 31 00:01:37,519 --> 00:01:40,239 I want to learn about what we are doing right 32 00:01:40,319 --> 00:01:43,640 and wrong, how we're missing, how we're gaining, how we're 33 00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:47,560 finding victory, and how we're failing. This is the daily mess. 34 00:01:48,319 --> 00:01:51,680 The challenge is that feel more like a defeat and 35 00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:56,079 or attack, Yet once you're through them, it turns out 36 00:01:56,079 --> 00:01:58,959 to be a scratch more than just a cut. Have 37 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,959 we given ourselves permission to make things bigger than what 38 00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:04,719 they really are? I mean, my goal is to always 39 00:02:04,799 --> 00:02:08,840 be aware, but to not make a determination until I 40 00:02:08,879 --> 00:02:12,719 have a larger part of the moment experienced. My wife 41 00:02:12,719 --> 00:02:16,879 and I always remind ourselves to stop writing the story 42 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:21,400 before it happens. Anxiety is more than an energy thief. 43 00:02:21,719 --> 00:02:25,520 It robs the body of its structure, breaking things down 44 00:02:25,759 --> 00:02:28,840 in ways that are very much invisible. And yet we 45 00:02:28,960 --> 00:02:33,199 know there is something wrong. How can you pinpoint it? 46 00:02:33,280 --> 00:02:36,759 I don't know. I just don't feel right. Okay, let's 47 00:02:36,919 --> 00:02:39,759 break it down. Let's find out what your trigger is. 48 00:02:39,840 --> 00:02:43,039 Let's get in there and see what has caused this 49 00:02:43,159 --> 00:02:47,319 miniature storm inside your giant head. I'm learning how to 50 00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:51,520 create play zones throughout the day. A play zone is 51 00:02:51,599 --> 00:02:55,360 breaking free of my personal expectations as a podcaster, as 52 00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:58,840 a writer, as a performer. I've got to have a 53 00:02:58,919 --> 00:03:04,120 play zone in the way of releasing the stress. Play 54 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,560 zones can be a couple of quick VR games, you 55 00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:10,080 know those goggles. I go bowling, I do pickleball. I 56 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:11,719 do all these different things. But I don't play a 57 00:03:11,840 --> 00:03:15,800 violent game. I play something that is kind of sporting, challenging. 58 00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,280 It makes you think. I also go on transition walk 59 00:03:19,319 --> 00:03:21,439 so I can be in this forest to take in 60 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:24,639 mother nature at her absolute best and worst. I mean, 61 00:03:24,719 --> 00:03:27,439 Jazzy and I are on that path. Even if it's raining, 62 00:03:28,840 --> 00:03:31,120 do what what are we gonna do? Melt? It hasn't 63 00:03:31,159 --> 00:03:35,000 happened yet, but it's a playdate. It's a play zone. 64 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:37,400 It's a place where you can go and you can 65 00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:40,159 create new hobbies. Not things you can get done in 66 00:03:40,159 --> 00:03:42,800 fifteen minutes, but something that you know is going to 67 00:03:42,840 --> 00:03:48,719 require a lot of time. A play zone. We did 68 00:03:48,719 --> 00:03:51,240 it as kids. We had a great time, and then 69 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:55,439 suddenly someone said, you're an adult. Act your age. Who 70 00:03:55,439 --> 00:03:59,759 I am I'm going to create a play zone? I'm Arrow? 71 00:03:59,840 --> 00:04:01,080 And that's the daily mess.
