1
00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:03,160
Speaker 1: Hey, if you're anything like me, your mood's change when

2
00:00:03,200 --> 00:00:05,440
it comes to podcasts listening. I want to have the

3
00:00:05,559 --> 00:00:08,880
right podcast for the right mood, which is the reason

4
00:00:08,919 --> 00:00:11,919
why I created the Errow dot net network. It's an

5
00:00:11,960 --> 00:00:16,160
opportunity for you to explore, to get into areas that

6
00:00:16,199 --> 00:00:19,160
you go. I don't know, Okay, I'll give it a shot.

7
00:00:19,679 --> 00:00:25,440
A Roe dot net, seventeen podcasts to choose from, and growing.

8
00:00:25,960 --> 00:00:29,079
I'm serious when I say enjoy the exploration.

9
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,840
Speaker 2: Hey, zero, And this is vocal DFRAG. I vocal d

10
00:00:32,920 --> 00:00:35,280
frag while I'm out here on this path. It's running

11
00:00:35,320 --> 00:00:39,399
through South Charlotte. The forest is called Rainbow Forest. It

12
00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:42,679
involves Heartbreak Hill and so many other different beautiful things.

13
00:00:43,079 --> 00:00:45,000
But I come out here to this forest to receive.

14
00:00:45,079 --> 00:00:47,039
And so when I come out here to d frag,

15
00:00:47,479 --> 00:00:50,960
it's asking myself the questions and then questioning the answers.

16
00:00:51,000 --> 00:00:53,200
I do it in a journal as well as I

17
00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,039
do it on a digital device such as this. And

18
00:00:56,079 --> 00:00:57,880
the reason why you do it on the digital device

19
00:00:57,960 --> 00:01:01,159
is because pitch, volume, and tone don't lie to you

20
00:01:01,880 --> 00:01:05,400
when you're using a writing instrument and you're doing everything

21
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:08,719
humanly possible to get those words out there. What happens

22
00:01:08,799 --> 00:01:10,280
is is that when you go back to it a

23
00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:14,120
different day, it's a completely different interpretation. Whereas pitch, volume

24
00:01:14,120 --> 00:01:16,799
and tone on your digital device gives you the opportunity

25
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:20,400
to hear where your mindset was and where everything that

26
00:01:20,439 --> 00:01:22,920
you're going to do is going to grow from or

27
00:01:22,959 --> 00:01:26,439
maybe pass through and never come back to again. Ask

28
00:01:26,560 --> 00:01:30,400
yourself the questions and then question the answers. This is

29
00:01:30,480 --> 00:01:33,879
vocal d frag a subject today that always comes up,

30
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:36,599
and really, in all honesty, people are going to say,

31
00:01:36,640 --> 00:01:39,480
you're such an old man for bringing this up. Nobody

32
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:43,200
thinks like that anymore. Well maybe they don't, but they

33
00:01:43,239 --> 00:01:48,040
sure bitch about it a lot. Time management. Time management

34
00:01:48,120 --> 00:01:50,280
is making sure that you've got a keen sense of

35
00:01:50,400 --> 00:01:54,560
balance in your day, documenting who want, where, why, when

36
00:01:54,719 --> 00:01:58,799
and how, and making sure that you stay accountable for

37
00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:01,599
everything that's on that map. You can't put something on

38
00:02:01,640 --> 00:02:04,239
your Google calendar and say, yeah, well, if I get

39
00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:07,200
around to it. That's the problem. We are all living

40
00:02:07,200 --> 00:02:09,960
this life of well if I get around to it,

41
00:02:10,599 --> 00:02:13,319
and then the honeydew list and everything else that you

42
00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,319
wanted to do continues to add up, add up, add up,

43
00:02:16,599 --> 00:02:19,599
and you find yourself bitching about life. I never get

44
00:02:19,599 --> 00:02:22,879
what I want. I missed out on another opportunity. Well,

45
00:02:22,879 --> 00:02:26,159
it's because you don't believe in a physical act and

46
00:02:26,199 --> 00:02:30,759
sustainability of time management. There was one thing that I

47
00:02:30,800 --> 00:02:32,879
picked up a couple of weeks ago. I've been podcasting

48
00:02:33,439 --> 00:02:36,960
since twenty twelve. I've been a radio broadcaster since nineteen

49
00:02:37,039 --> 00:02:39,919
seventy nine, so I've got a few chapters inside this

50
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:43,039
system of choices. But something that came up to me.

51
00:02:43,960 --> 00:02:46,680
It was this, I get out of the studio let's

52
00:02:46,680 --> 00:02:49,840
say at ten forty five am or maybe eleven o'clock,

53
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:55,439
my normal podcast time. I allow myself seven am to

54
00:02:55,560 --> 00:03:00,280
twelve thirty pm nothing after that. That's the discipline. Otherwise

55
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:01,599
I would stay in that room all day and I

56
00:03:01,599 --> 00:03:05,120
wouldn't see anybody in the world. So if I'm getting

57
00:03:05,159 --> 00:03:08,759
out at ten forty five to eleven o'clock, what am

58
00:03:08,759 --> 00:03:11,120
I going to do next? Here's the thing that I

59
00:03:11,120 --> 00:03:14,639
had to train myself, train the creative person. If I

60
00:03:14,719 --> 00:03:17,919
am scheduled to be in that podcast studio until twelve

61
00:03:18,039 --> 00:03:23,639
thirty PM, then it's podcast time that I cannot waste.

62
00:03:24,039 --> 00:03:26,039
So once again, if I'm getting out at ten forty

63
00:03:26,039 --> 00:03:28,599
five to eleven o'clock, I still have an hour and

64
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:34,039
a half time on that time clock that's called podcast

65
00:03:34,360 --> 00:03:37,439
time clock. And I think so many times we get

66
00:03:37,439 --> 00:03:39,879
wrapped in that when it comes to the careers that

67
00:03:39,919 --> 00:03:42,919
we have or the side hustles that we're doing, we think, oh,

68
00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:45,159
I'm going to hurry up and get done, and then

69
00:03:45,319 --> 00:03:47,719
the next day, when the job is a little bit

70
00:03:47,719 --> 00:03:50,240
more and it's expecting more, you want to complain about

71
00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,719
it because you didn't get finished as early as you

72
00:03:52,759 --> 00:03:55,759
did the day or the days before, and so therefore

73
00:03:55,919 --> 00:04:00,800
you're messing up your schedule, your time management. Yourself a

74
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:05,560
certain window every day and stick to that window. And

75
00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:08,639
if you get done with something early, figure out better

76
00:04:08,680 --> 00:04:11,199
ways that you can make that side hustle or that

77
00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:14,439
job even greater than what it was today. Otherwise you're

78
00:04:14,479 --> 00:04:17,319
gonna sit around going, I don't have the time, man,

79
00:04:17,319 --> 00:04:19,399
they want me to do this. I don't have the

80
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:20,360
effort to do this.

81
00:04:20,839 --> 00:04:21,199
Speaker 1: Why not?

82
00:04:21,879 --> 00:04:24,519
Speaker 2: It's available every day. That is your window, that is

83
00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:28,839
your Google calendar. And so if you really go into

84
00:04:28,879 --> 00:04:32,680
it with a clear head, realizing that you are several

85
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:37,040
different levels of transitions throughout one single day, you're gonna

86
00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:40,120
learn more about yourself and you're gonna get control of

87
00:04:40,120 --> 00:04:45,639
your dedication, loyalty, determination and perseverance. So treat yourself like

88
00:04:45,720 --> 00:04:48,879
the manager that you are and take care of yourself

89
00:04:49,319 --> 00:04:52,759
like the employee you are. When it comes to anything,

90
00:04:53,519 --> 00:04:56,279
you are forever that person on the totem pole that

91
00:04:56,399 --> 00:05:00,439
has to work for what you've got as yourself, the

92
00:05:00,519 --> 00:05:04,920
questions and question the answers. I call it vocal defragging,

93
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:07,800
or do it in a journal. Just remember that when

94
00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:09,759
you come back a different day, it's going to be

95
00:05:09,800 --> 00:05:12,279
a different interpretation. I'm Meryl
