1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,440 Speaker 1: Creativity is an addiction. I put a lot of inflection 2 00:00:04,719 --> 00:00:06,960 on that because I want you to hear it. I 3 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:08,880 want to plant it inside of you so that you 4 00:00:09,039 --> 00:00:12,839 understand why you go through so many mood swings and transitions. 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:19,079 Our mindsets are becoming corrupt and they're becoming interrupted because 6 00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,920 we won't allow the creativity that we were born to 7 00:00:21,960 --> 00:00:25,559 bring forward out. We won't let it out unplugged, because 8 00:00:25,559 --> 00:00:28,199 we will always say yes to creativity totally uncut, because 9 00:00:28,199 --> 00:00:30,480 we all make mistakes. So turn it into a tool. 10 00:00:30,760 --> 00:00:33,479 This is arrow unplugged. I don't even want to look 11 00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:37,200 at my Google calendar. It's always covered with just multiple 12 00:00:37,280 --> 00:00:41,079 layers of colors. I have to colorize it otherwise this 13 00:00:41,119 --> 00:00:43,079 event will get mixed up with this event will get 14 00:00:43,119 --> 00:00:45,000 mixed up with this event. So I've got to put 15 00:00:45,039 --> 00:00:48,079 in there many many colors to say, oh my god, 16 00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:51,159 I've got to beware at what time? And why? Oh 17 00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:54,719 why did I say yes? Have you been there? Are 18 00:00:54,719 --> 00:00:58,719 you living that lifestyle? Now? We just keep saying yes, 19 00:00:59,679 --> 00:01:02,640 and before the event takes place, we're going why didn't 20 00:01:02,679 --> 00:01:05,680 I say no? That almost sounded like a Jerry Seinfeld. 21 00:01:05,719 --> 00:01:11,280 Why don't we just say no? Why don't we because 22 00:01:11,280 --> 00:01:12,840 we feel like we're going to miss out on something, 23 00:01:13,439 --> 00:01:15,640 and it's something that we've carried forward from our childhood 24 00:01:16,079 --> 00:01:17,719 and now that we live in this world where we 25 00:01:17,719 --> 00:01:21,400 think we have everything, we want more of everything, and 26 00:01:21,439 --> 00:01:24,920 it's learning to say no that is going to interrupt 27 00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:28,799 and corrupt your heart. Hey, Sarah, this is the Daily Mess, 28 00:01:28,799 --> 00:01:31,359 a chronological walk through an everyday world. I am a 29 00:01:31,640 --> 00:01:36,879 daily writer. I love to put thoughts on pages because 30 00:01:36,879 --> 00:01:40,719 from those thoughts things will grow. The several different seasons 31 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:44,120 that we all move through leave little breadcrumbs on the 32 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:46,799 life that we just lived. I'm not living in the past. 33 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:49,920 This is about the present. How did we get here? 34 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:53,680 Oh it's written, I have no question about it. It's 35 00:01:53,719 --> 00:01:57,040 the future that we've got to get into. This is 36 00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:01,319 the Daily Mess. Always a busy day. I don't understand 37 00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,760 why it has to be this way. Stack up the events, 38 00:02:05,159 --> 00:02:07,640 do them one at a time, and then meet back 39 00:02:07,640 --> 00:02:11,520 here just in time to get more rest. How could 40 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:15,639 we ever think about retiring? Really, seriously, we're all so 41 00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:19,080 damn busy. How can we think about Well, I'm gonna stop, 42 00:02:19,639 --> 00:02:23,840 it's over. We have this beautiful RV that needs to 43 00:02:23,840 --> 00:02:26,240 be used it was supposed to be this past week. 44 00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:28,599 Uh uh uh huh. Our job's got in the way. 45 00:02:29,360 --> 00:02:33,599 I've never seen the expectations so thick than what we 46 00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:37,120 just experienced this past week because we said yes to 47 00:02:37,159 --> 00:02:40,759 them and know to us, Oh no, how dare you 48 00:02:40,800 --> 00:02:43,639 say no? Well, that's who we are as a generation. 49 00:02:44,360 --> 00:02:48,360 Our jobs rule us. They're out of control. And what 50 00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:52,000 these business leaders need to do is they need to understand, dude, 51 00:02:52,000 --> 00:02:54,919 you're putting in too much time. I realize i'm your 52 00:02:54,960 --> 00:02:58,319 company leader, but I also have a personal investment in 53 00:02:58,360 --> 00:03:01,159 this because for you to remain strong in my company, 54 00:03:01,159 --> 00:03:05,520 which needs to be strong, I need you to rest. 55 00:03:05,960 --> 00:03:08,879 But bosses aren't built like that anymore. They're not. They 56 00:03:08,879 --> 00:03:10,360 want to give you more work, they want you to 57 00:03:10,360 --> 00:03:14,479 put in more hours. I've gotten to the point where 58 00:03:14,520 --> 00:03:17,840 I totally respect whatever space I can get. If I'm 59 00:03:17,840 --> 00:03:20,159 going to get ten minutes with my wife, no writing, 60 00:03:20,719 --> 00:03:25,919 no TV, no music, I want all ten minutes with 61 00:03:26,080 --> 00:03:29,000 my wife. People ask me how my wife is doing 62 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:30,639 all the time. Do you know what my reply is, 63 00:03:31,599 --> 00:03:35,280 you've probably done it too. I guess she's okay. That's 64 00:03:35,280 --> 00:03:38,360 not an answer because that doesn't tell the person who 65 00:03:38,479 --> 00:03:41,759 asked the question, who had the compassion and understanding of 66 00:03:41,800 --> 00:03:45,400 your lifestyle and lack of rest. They're asking a question, 67 00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,199 how is your wife doing? I guess she's okay. We're 68 00:03:49,240 --> 00:03:52,000 not the only family that lives like this. I know 69 00:03:52,080 --> 00:03:54,280 a lot of people that are doing three to five 70 00:03:54,400 --> 00:03:58,280 part time jobs and they're living with two or three 71 00:03:58,280 --> 00:04:02,240 families under one roof. Mom and dad never talked about this. 72 00:04:02,599 --> 00:04:05,000 They never did. They said the times were hard when 73 00:04:05,039 --> 00:04:07,280 they were coming up, but they didn't say that they 74 00:04:07,319 --> 00:04:09,319 worked three to five jobs, nor did they say that 75 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:12,280 they were living with other people. We've got to get 76 00:04:12,319 --> 00:04:17,439 into a daily discipline to set ourselves free, get the 77 00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:22,399 job scene under human control. I just have too much 78 00:04:22,439 --> 00:04:28,839 to do. We got to stop saying that. Stop. Did 79 00:04:28,839 --> 00:04:32,160 it work? Did you stop? All right, We're gonna work 80 00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:39,519 on it right stop. How about now? Did that work? Hi? MARYL. 81 00:04:39,560 --> 00:04:40,600 And that's the daily mess.
