Melissa and 11 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,560 Speaker 1: Tiff both get mad at me for many things. Many 12 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:36,239 Speaker 1: one of them is the ill placement of my microphone, or, 13 00:00:36,320 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: perhaps more accurately, the proximity of my face to the 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:45,480 Speaker 1: aforementioned microphone. So I've tried to, after two thousand episodes, 15 00:00:45,600 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: take on board their feedback and be a little bit 16 00:00:48,159 --> 00:00:52,680 Speaker 1: more responsible. So here I am talking into the actual 17 00:00:52,720 --> 00:00:53,920 Speaker 1: microphone like a grown up. 18 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:56,640 Speaker 3: Well well done, because this is evidence about why they're 19 00:00:56,640 --> 00:00:58,320 Speaker 3: giving you a shit about it in the first place. 20 00:00:58,560 --> 00:01:01,360 Speaker 3: You sound the same, but you're so amplified. 21 00:01:01,920 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: Wow wow, look at me, amplified and clear. If only 22 00:01:05,760 --> 00:01:10,240 Speaker 1: I could be that all the time. Yeah, how you been? 23 00:01:10,319 --> 00:01:11,720 Speaker 2: What are you up to? What is news? 24 00:01:12,959 --> 00:01:14,960 Speaker 3: It's been a good week. It's been a really good week, 25 00:01:15,080 --> 00:01:17,200 Speaker 3: just getting ready for events. We have an edge of 26 00:01:17,280 --> 00:01:20,880 Speaker 3: event next week, which I didn't realize. It's snuck up 27 00:01:20,920 --> 00:01:24,319 Speaker 3: on us so quickly. August that's flown by. How's it 28 00:01:24,360 --> 00:01:26,120 Speaker 3: been for you? Is? It's just like it seems like 29 00:01:26,120 --> 00:01:30,200 Speaker 3: a just guard here a day ago and now. 30 00:01:27,520 --> 00:01:31,720 Speaker 1: It's everything is flying for me because I'm under the 31 00:01:31,720 --> 00:01:33,840 Speaker 1: pump with a few things. Everyone's under the pump, but 32 00:01:34,160 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: I'm for me. I'm particularly under the pump these few months. 33 00:01:38,280 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 2: But that is all good. Yeah, you know, sometimes it's 34 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,119 Speaker 2: like I've got all. 35 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:47,560 Speaker 1: These things that I can that I need to do, 36 00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:50,160 Speaker 1: Like I need to do the podcast, I need to 37 00:01:50,160 --> 00:01:51,120 Speaker 1: do my speaking gigs. 38 00:01:51,120 --> 00:01:53,960 Speaker 2: I'm just talking work now everyone. I need to. 39 00:01:54,960 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 1: Finish my PhD. I need to write this paper. I 40 00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: need to you know, I need to review that to 41 00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,280 Speaker 1: you know, submit this, submit that, all of that. And 42 00:02:04,280 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 1: then there's the mum and dad. 43 00:02:05,520 --> 00:02:08,040 Speaker 2: Stuff, who of course take priority over all the other stuff. 44 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:09,799 Speaker 2: But I've got to look after them and love them. 45 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: And then I've got to try and get to the 46 00:02:11,160 --> 00:02:15,720 Speaker 1: gym so I don't turn into a badass. And then 47 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:18,400 Speaker 1: then I've got to kind of get out of this 48 00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,280 Speaker 1: chair and walk a bit, and then I probably should 49 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 1: have some balance, So I should probably watch an episode 50 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: of and then you go, oh, fucking now, it's tomorrow. 51 00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:31,760 Speaker 1: Like it is trying to put all that together. 52 00:02:32,200 --> 00:02:33,200 Speaker 2: And remain. 53 00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 1: The calm in the chaos while you're doing all that, 54 00:02:37,360 --> 00:02:40,800 Speaker 1: and be productive and figuring out what is the right 55 00:02:41,040 --> 00:02:43,400 Speaker 1: kind of balance for me of all of that, what 56 00:02:43,560 --> 00:02:46,600 Speaker 1: is do I know when I should just stop doing 57 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: whatever it is I'm doing for a while and walk 58 00:02:48,919 --> 00:02:53,080 Speaker 1: away and just do something silly or fun or unrelated. 59 00:02:53,639 --> 00:02:54,919 Speaker 2: So that's like. 60 00:02:54,919 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 1: I've never been busier than I am at the moment 61 00:02:56,840 --> 00:02:58,720 Speaker 1: in my life. And that's saying a lot, because you 62 00:02:58,760 --> 00:03:00,639 Speaker 1: know how busy my life was back in the days 63 00:03:00,680 --> 00:03:03,560 Speaker 1: when we met. But just in terms of my personal 64 00:03:03,639 --> 00:03:05,000 Speaker 1: workload at the moment. 65 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,760 Speaker 2: There's a lot. But I enjoy it and no one's 66 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:09,440 Speaker 2: making me do it. 67 00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,360 Speaker 3: It seems like it's compounding increasingly. I mean, even even 68 00:03:12,520 --> 00:03:15,399 Speaker 3: six year olds have a full schedule, don't they. They've 69 00:03:15,400 --> 00:03:20,040 Speaker 3: got every minute of the day planned, Like unbound spontaneous play, 70 00:03:20,080 --> 00:03:24,399 Speaker 3: which is essential for development of our brain, creativity, socialization, 71 00:03:24,960 --> 00:03:28,760 Speaker 3: that's gone. I mean, everything they're booked in fifteen minute increments, 72 00:03:29,480 --> 00:03:33,320 Speaker 3: like all of us are just insanely busy. And I 73 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,160 Speaker 3: wonder because a lot of it feels like it needs 74 00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:37,560 Speaker 3: to be done. But what I wonder is does it 75 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 3: necessarily make us more effective? 76 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:41,080 Speaker 2: Yeah? 77 00:03:41,200 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: Does it make us happier? Does it make us more fulfilled? 78 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:47,040 Speaker 1: Does it make us less anxious? I don't think so. 79 00:03:47,160 --> 00:03:51,120 Speaker 1: I mean, and you know, of course there's no in 80 00:03:51,120 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 1: inverted commas set formula or you know, one approach fits 81 00:03:56,360 --> 00:04:01,040 Speaker 1: all protocol. But yeah, it's it's amazing how much stuff 82 00:04:01,080 --> 00:04:06,000 Speaker 1: we do that doesn't really work, but we keep doing 83 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:08,720 Speaker 1: it because we've always done it, Like we do what 84 00:04:08,800 --> 00:04:10,640 Speaker 1: we used to do, because that's what we do, and 85 00:04:10,640 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: that's how we do. 86 00:04:11,400 --> 00:04:12,480 Speaker 2: It, you know. 87 00:04:12,680 --> 00:04:17,480 Speaker 1: And do you remember that story about the grandmother who 88 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:20,320 Speaker 1: used to cut the ends off the turkey or the 89 00:04:20,400 --> 00:04:23,039 Speaker 1: roast or whatever it was, and then, you know, and 90 00:04:23,279 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: the initial reason that she cut the ends off was 91 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:28,520 Speaker 1: because her oven was small and the gigantic roast or 92 00:04:28,560 --> 00:04:31,880 Speaker 1: whatever it was wouldn't fit in the oven. And then 93 00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,240 Speaker 1: three generations later, her great great great granddaughters are still 94 00:04:36,680 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: you know, chopping the ends off despite their huge oven, 95 00:04:39,839 --> 00:04:42,680 Speaker 1: not knowing why. But that's the way it's always been done. 96 00:04:42,800 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: And I feel like there's a bit of groundhog Day 97 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:46,000 Speaker 1: in all of us. 98 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:46,560 Speaker 2: A little bit of. 99 00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:52,040 Speaker 1: You know, that whole idea of intentional and conscious living. 100 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 1: It's really a daily practice. It's really a like I 101 00:04:57,160 --> 00:04:59,479 Speaker 1: asked myself, which I've shared this ten times on this show, 102 00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:02,440 Speaker 1: but every morning when I go to the cafe, the question, 103 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:04,600 Speaker 1: the everyday question I ask is in terms of what 104 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:06,640 Speaker 1: I want to do be create today, what do I 105 00:05:06,720 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 1: need to focus on? What should have my attention today? 106 00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:14,960 Speaker 1: And ergo what shouldn't have my attention today? Because it's 107 00:05:15,000 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 1: so easy to give your attention and focus and mental 108 00:05:18,120 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: energy to things that really shouldn't have it. 109 00:05:23,560 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 3: I mean a lot of times I think why these 110 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:29,240 Speaker 3: things happen and why we double down in times of uncertainty, 111 00:05:29,279 --> 00:05:32,080 Speaker 3: which I think globally right now it's a time of uncertainty, 112 00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:37,479 Speaker 3: just the rate of advancement in technology. That ridiculous question 113 00:05:37,520 --> 00:05:39,520 Speaker 3: we used to ask people about their five year plan, 114 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:42,760 Speaker 3: like where do you see yourself in five years? Don't 115 00:05:42,760 --> 00:05:44,800 Speaker 3: even know where I'm going to see myself in five weeks. 116 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,680 Speaker 3: The world might be dramatically different than it is today, 117 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,880 Speaker 3: And we have these practices and rituals that shape part 118 00:05:52,920 --> 00:05:56,320 Speaker 3: of our identity and it's just the way things have 119 00:05:56,400 --> 00:05:59,560 Speaker 3: always been. It gives us stability and a level of certainty. 120 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:03,279 Speaker 3: Things get like really chaotic. You know, what do we do? 121 00:06:03,360 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 3: We double down on what worked before, even if it 122 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:11,960 Speaker 3: no longer works, it's still familiar. Yes, our creativity kind 123 00:06:11,960 --> 00:06:15,720 Speaker 3: of gets constricted, it collapses under the weed of anxiety. 124 00:06:16,560 --> 00:06:24,760 Speaker 3: You know, how do you navigate through understanding clearly what 125 00:06:25,200 --> 00:06:29,040 Speaker 3: matters most versus what matters the least on a D 126 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,839 Speaker 3: to day basis? What is that like for you? 127 00:06:31,800 --> 00:06:33,200 Speaker 2: Yeah, that's a good question. 128 00:06:33,360 --> 00:06:38,080 Speaker 1: I mean, my my ideal answer is. 129 00:06:40,080 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 2: An I'll unpack both. 130 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:44,480 Speaker 1: Is that I try to live a life that is 131 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:53,040 Speaker 1: so operationally, practically, personally, professionally in relationships that is a 132 00:06:53,080 --> 00:06:57,120 Speaker 1: reflection of my values. So, you know, do you know 133 00:06:57,160 --> 00:06:58,839 Speaker 1: what I can say this? I'm going to say this, 134 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,919 Speaker 1: I am I going to say it. Yeah, so not yesterday, 135 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 1: the day before. I got a really good opportunity through 136 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:11,280 Speaker 1: this show, through our God bless them, our kind of 137 00:07:12,720 --> 00:07:15,280 Speaker 1: the Home of the You project is of course no 138 00:07:15,360 --> 00:07:19,800 Speaker 1: Over Entertainment. Who's a big organization astray wide, and they're 139 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: great to ask and I'm forever thankful, and they Melissa 140 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: sent me, as she does many times, she sent me 141 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:30,400 Speaker 1: a text to say I've sent you an email. I 142 00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:32,320 Speaker 1: have a look, and it was basically, i'll tell you 143 00:07:32,360 --> 00:07:34,480 Speaker 1: off air. I don't want to throw anyone under the bus. 144 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,520 Speaker 1: I won't say what it was on air, but it 145 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:41,440 Speaker 1: was a sponsorship opportunity which was quite good, so quite 146 00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:45,200 Speaker 1: good money. And when I saw what I needed to 147 00:07:45,320 --> 00:07:50,600 Speaker 1: sell or we needed to sell on this show, I 148 00:07:50,640 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: straightway said no. And it's not you know, it's not 149 00:07:54,640 --> 00:07:57,720 Speaker 1: that it's horrendous. It's just not something I could sell, 150 00:07:58,320 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: and so or I would, I would not use it. 151 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:03,160 Speaker 2: I would not advise. 152 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:05,960 Speaker 1: Anyone use it, and you know, so for that reason, 153 00:08:06,160 --> 00:08:08,320 Speaker 1: I just have to go. Yes, I would like the money, 154 00:08:08,360 --> 00:08:11,080 Speaker 1: but it's out of alignment with my beliefs and values 155 00:08:11,080 --> 00:08:14,320 Speaker 1: and ethics. So although it's a hard decision, it's a 156 00:08:14,440 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: very clear decision, you know. 157 00:08:16,320 --> 00:08:18,560 Speaker 3: So you passed on the Viagra opportunity. 158 00:08:18,960 --> 00:08:21,520 Speaker 1: No, No, If Viagra want to sponsor me, send that 159 00:08:21,560 --> 00:08:23,720 Speaker 1: shit over here, because I haven't had an erection since 160 00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: the nineties, so fucking jump on board. But you know, yeah, 161 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:34,280 Speaker 1: I think all silliness aside for me like, of course 162 00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: I fuck around a lot and I joke, but I 163 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: also take very really seriously the fact that in the 164 00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: middle of my silliness and my jokes and my bullshit, 165 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,319 Speaker 1: people actually trust. 166 00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:48,000 Speaker 2: Me and lean in. 167 00:08:48,880 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 1: And if all of a sudden, I'm, for example, doing 168 00:08:52,520 --> 00:08:56,920 Speaker 1: something saying something or selling something which seems really out 169 00:08:56,960 --> 00:08:59,400 Speaker 1: of alignment with or is out of alignment with who 170 00:08:59,440 --> 00:09:02,160 Speaker 1: people think I am, one, I don't want to do 171 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:06,080 Speaker 1: that because you know, but two, you know, you're telling 172 00:09:06,120 --> 00:09:08,440 Speaker 1: people that you're full of shit, and you're telling people 173 00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:11,960 Speaker 1: that you have a price, And for me, I would 174 00:09:12,040 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: rather be broke than that, you know, So, without trying 175 00:09:16,480 --> 00:09:19,559 Speaker 1: to sound too bloddy, weird and deep, Yeah, for me. 176 00:09:19,559 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 2: It's it's knowing. 177 00:09:21,320 --> 00:09:23,600 Speaker 1: It's thinking every day about because I think for a 178 00:09:23,679 --> 00:09:29,560 Speaker 1: long time I lived not unintentionally because I did have 179 00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:32,920 Speaker 1: a focus, but I did do a lot of stuff 180 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:39,320 Speaker 1: which was basically driven by subconscious thinking, subconscious programming. And 181 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,080 Speaker 1: you know that old metaphor of when you're in the river, 182 00:09:42,760 --> 00:09:44,800 Speaker 1: you know, you're just going with the river, like you're 183 00:09:45,120 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 1: you're not directing anything, but it you know, your life 184 00:09:48,640 --> 00:09:50,760 Speaker 1: like a river has its own flow, it has its 185 00:09:50,760 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: own energy, It has its own momentum, and you know, 186 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:56,800 Speaker 1: you getting up or me getting up every day and 187 00:09:56,880 --> 00:09:59,360 Speaker 1: just stepping back into the river. We just carry on 188 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 1: where we left off yesterday. And I think the challenges 189 00:10:02,880 --> 00:10:06,560 Speaker 1: to swim or paddle to the side of the metaphoric river, 190 00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:10,000 Speaker 1: get out, hop up on the bank or maybe some 191 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,800 Speaker 1: metaphoric vantage point, and just go. Am I in the 192 00:10:13,880 --> 00:10:16,800 Speaker 1: right river? Am I going the right. 193 00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:18,520 Speaker 2: Direction in the river? You know? 194 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: Is this the river I need to be in? Or 195 00:10:21,400 --> 00:10:23,240 Speaker 1: maybe do I need to get the fuck out of 196 00:10:23,280 --> 00:10:25,920 Speaker 1: the river for a while. And I think that so 197 00:10:26,160 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: many people literally wake up one day and think, how 198 00:10:32,160 --> 00:10:33,360 Speaker 1: the fuck did I get here? 199 00:10:34,200 --> 00:10:36,000 Speaker 2: And well, you got there because of. 200 00:10:35,960 --> 00:10:38,120 Speaker 1: The things you did and didn't do, and the choices 201 00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: you made and didn't make, and you know, and some 202 00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:43,400 Speaker 1: of it was in your control, some of it was 203 00:10:43,480 --> 00:10:47,360 Speaker 1: out of your control. But you know, very much I'm 204 00:10:47,400 --> 00:10:50,920 Speaker 1: about I understand that things happened to you or around 205 00:10:50,960 --> 00:10:53,480 Speaker 1: you that weren't great, and you have it's like you 206 00:10:53,520 --> 00:10:56,760 Speaker 1: went through a shit childhood that you didn't choose, Like 207 00:10:56,880 --> 00:10:58,600 Speaker 1: you had a lot of things that were out of 208 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,719 Speaker 1: your control, that were unfair, that were brutal, that were painful, 209 00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:06,320 Speaker 1: right and what I love about you is in the 210 00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:12,160 Speaker 1: middle of all of that, you you didn't capitulate. And 211 00:11:12,200 --> 00:11:16,199 Speaker 1: we're not pretending that that life wasn't bad or that 212 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,880 Speaker 1: things weren't hard or horrible. 213 00:11:17,920 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 2: They were. But you know, and now here you are, 214 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:22,200 Speaker 2: all these years later. 215 00:11:22,480 --> 00:11:25,640 Speaker 1: And you're doing great, and you're helping people, and you're 216 00:11:25,679 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: a healthy member and a functional member of society, and 217 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:30,480 Speaker 1: you've got a gorgeous side. 218 00:11:31,200 --> 00:11:31,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, you do it. 219 00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:32,080 Speaker 1: You know. 220 00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 2: I just think that's that. 221 00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: So. 222 00:11:34,760 --> 00:11:37,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, I think trying to trying. 223 00:11:36,960 --> 00:11:42,559 Speaker 1: To be fully accountable and responsible for your own life 224 00:11:42,600 --> 00:11:45,120 Speaker 1: to the extent that you can, because of course there 225 00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 1: will always be things beyond your control. 226 00:11:49,000 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: Yeah. I think it comes from clarity as well. I 227 00:11:51,480 --> 00:11:53,560 Speaker 3: love I love your analogy of the river like being 228 00:11:53,600 --> 00:11:56,400 Speaker 3: taken where the rivers just flow in the direction of 229 00:11:56,440 --> 00:11:58,080 Speaker 3: flow of the river for usus getting out of the 230 00:11:58,120 --> 00:12:00,880 Speaker 3: river and being able to observe facts. Yeah, I think 231 00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:04,160 Speaker 3: how I would frame that is, you know, looking through 232 00:12:04,559 --> 00:12:07,880 Speaker 3: your filter. We've always cut the EDGs off the meat 233 00:12:07,880 --> 00:12:09,760 Speaker 3: loaf because you know, that's just the way it was 234 00:12:10,040 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 3: done thing, versus looking at your filter, like why do 235 00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:19,720 Speaker 3: I engage and function in life the way I do, 236 00:12:20,040 --> 00:12:22,680 Speaker 3: and is this really where I want? And what I 237 00:12:22,760 --> 00:12:27,000 Speaker 3: got from that is values. Understanding what you value makes 238 00:12:27,040 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 3: your life so much simpler, Like for you with the 239 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:33,160 Speaker 3: sponsorship opportunity, it's a matter of integrity and ethics. But 240 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,560 Speaker 3: for other people it might be Okay, how do I 241 00:12:35,640 --> 00:12:40,080 Speaker 3: discern what's truly an opportunity which truly fulfills me and 242 00:12:40,480 --> 00:12:42,560 Speaker 3: something that comes along that sounds great, but it's really 243 00:12:42,559 --> 00:12:45,320 Speaker 3: going to turn me into an octopus on rollablates a 244 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:48,640 Speaker 3: lot of motion, but not a lot of direction because 245 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:51,920 Speaker 3: it's not aligned with what it is that I truly 246 00:12:52,000 --> 00:12:55,320 Speaker 3: believe I am identity and what it is that I 247 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:59,319 Speaker 3: truly want and gives me meaning my values. So I 248 00:12:59,360 --> 00:13:02,480 Speaker 3: think it's it's a really good place to start, is there? 249 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 3: And it's like when you know Michael Gerber you had 250 00:13:05,760 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 3: him on your show not too long ago where he 251 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:13,040 Speaker 3: talks about working in your business versus working on it. 252 00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:17,080 Speaker 3: It's like, what is that compass that allows you to 253 00:13:17,120 --> 00:13:18,160 Speaker 3: do stuff like that? 254 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,280 Speaker 1: I think also, as you were talking about that, I 255 00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:27,800 Speaker 1: was thinking, however, if I was presented with the same opportunities. 256 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:29,920 Speaker 2: And I was. 257 00:13:32,000 --> 00:13:35,320 Speaker 1: A dad, or a single dad perhaps, and I had 258 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:38,880 Speaker 1: four kids and I didn't live the life of privilege, 259 00:13:38,920 --> 00:13:46,440 Speaker 1: relative privilege that I now do that value that might 260 00:13:46,640 --> 00:13:48,600 Speaker 1: change things. You know, I might go, fuck it. I 261 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:51,720 Speaker 1: don't really love this product, but my kids need to eat, 262 00:13:52,200 --> 00:13:57,480 Speaker 1: so you know, I think you know that it's a 263 00:13:57,480 --> 00:13:59,520 Speaker 1: little bit context dependent. 264 00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,760 Speaker 3: You know everything. Lifers can't text the pandemic, ye like. 265 00:14:03,720 --> 00:14:05,880 Speaker 1: Well, given the right, you know, it's like, I don't 266 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:10,360 Speaker 1: like violence at all, but at all, and I hope 267 00:14:10,400 --> 00:14:13,200 Speaker 1: I never have to be in an altercation or anything ever, 268 00:14:13,280 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: But there have been times in my life where somebody's 269 00:14:15,600 --> 00:14:17,000 Speaker 1: been trying to hurt someone. 270 00:14:17,200 --> 00:14:20,640 Speaker 2: That I care about or me, and you go, well, 271 00:14:20,680 --> 00:14:21,240 Speaker 2: if I'm not. 272 00:14:22,760 --> 00:14:25,880 Speaker 1: At the very least being physical, you know, or doing 273 00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:28,400 Speaker 1: something to defend me or someone else, there's going to 274 00:14:28,400 --> 00:14:29,000 Speaker 1: be a problem. 275 00:14:29,120 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 2: So I don't ever want to be in the middle 276 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 2: of it. I don't ever want to start it. 277 00:14:33,120 --> 00:14:35,640 Speaker 1: But it's not okay to punch me in the face, 278 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, There's it depends on what is going on. 279 00:14:38,240 --> 00:14:41,760 Speaker 1: So I think that, but in general terms, as much 280 00:14:41,800 --> 00:14:47,160 Speaker 1: as possible, I think, you know, default to default to what. 281 00:14:47,320 --> 00:14:49,600 Speaker 2: Is it that that matters to you most? What are 282 00:14:49,600 --> 00:14:51,640 Speaker 2: the things that you know? 283 00:14:52,080 --> 00:14:54,200 Speaker 1: I started writing this piece yes, they made. It was 284 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,280 Speaker 1: going to be a post on Instagram and it was 285 00:14:56,320 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: about I was just writing about the the dichotomy between 286 00:15:03,960 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: like trying to be like really trying to be this 287 00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:09,360 Speaker 1: person that comes from a place of love and kindness 288 00:15:09,360 --> 00:15:11,840 Speaker 1: and service.

And 324 00:17:02,960 --> 00:17:06,000 Speaker 1: I've told the story before about I went out with 325 00:17:06,040 --> 00:17:08,720 Speaker 1: my mom and dad about ten years ago, and even then, 326 00:17:08,800 --> 00:17:11,520 Speaker 1: my mum was seventy five, so she was elderly, and 327 00:17:11,560 --> 00:17:15,359 Speaker 1: a guy in the city who was I would dare say, 328 00:17:15,800 --> 00:17:18,359 Speaker 1: you know, drug effected, But he stepped out in front 329 00:17:18,359 --> 00:17:20,440 Speaker 1: of my mum and grabbed my mum on the arm 330 00:17:20,480 --> 00:17:24,119 Speaker 1: because he wanted money. And it's it's like, all of 331 00:17:24,160 --> 00:17:27,680 Speaker 1: a sudden, mister love and light and unicorns and Jesus, 332 00:17:27,720 --> 00:17:30,800 Speaker 1: all of a sudden, I'm like a fucking you know, 333 00:17:32,280 --> 00:17:35,520 Speaker 1: a psychopath getting this guy off my mum. I'm like, 334 00:17:35,600 --> 00:17:38,040 Speaker 1: you don't, you don't do that, Like that's not okay. 335 00:17:38,119 --> 00:17:41,960 Speaker 1: And that took like one second for me to elevate 336 00:17:42,119 --> 00:17:45,480 Speaker 1: one second, and I didn't do anything horrendous to him, 337 00:17:45,480 --> 00:17:48,399 Speaker 1: but he probably wouldn't have done that again in a hurry, 338 00:17:48,520 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: not that night anyway. But you know, just that trying 339 00:17:51,320 --> 00:17:57,520 Speaker 1: to manage that, that drive to be a kind, compassionate 340 00:17:57,640 --> 00:18:01,879 Speaker 1: human doing good but also not at the cost of 341 00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:07,000 Speaker 1: letting or enabling people to do horrible shit. Like for 342 00:18:07,080 --> 00:18:08,920 Speaker 1: me to find that balance is hard. 343 00:18:10,040 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 3: I mean, but for me looking at it from the outside, 344 00:18:13,040 --> 00:18:16,080 Speaker 3: d you were living in complete alignment with that, because 345 00:18:16,119 --> 00:18:21,000 Speaker 3: I think there's there's a misconception that kindness and compassion 346 00:18:21,960 --> 00:18:25,160 Speaker 3: has to be soft. You were acting out of kindness 347 00:18:25,480 --> 00:18:29,600 Speaker 3: and out of compassion for your mom, which is which 348 00:18:29,680 --> 00:18:35,240 Speaker 3: is expected, and you like, look, you talked about context 349 00:18:35,240 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 3: of everything. If I said, oh my god, Greg I'm coming, 350 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:43,199 Speaker 3: you know, coming to Melbourne next week and let's just 351 00:18:43,280 --> 00:18:46,720 Speaker 3: let's just get together, let's just go have dinner.

He's going to be out 355 00:18:55,480 --> 00:18:58,000 Speaker 3: in Melbourne as well. I would love for you to 356 00:18:58,000 --> 00:18:59,800 Speaker 3: meet him. Tell me a little bit about him.

He's really charismatic, he's super kind, compassionate. Like, 359 00:19:07,600 --> 00:19:10,199 Speaker 3: you know, he's he's killed over twenty people. You're just 360 00:19:10,200 --> 00:19:13,720 Speaker 3: gonna you might go, whoa, whoa, wait what hold on? 361 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:17,600 Speaker 3: Hold on, wait a second, Like what do you mean? 362 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:21,159 Speaker 3: He's like, I don't know if I want to, Like, 363 00:19:22,320 --> 00:19:25,679 Speaker 3: but if I said, yeah, oh, he killed over twenty people. 364 00:19:25,960 --> 00:19:27,879 Speaker 3: You know, he was in a war zone and he 365 00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:32,080 Speaker 3: saved a bunch of women and children from enemy combatants. 366 00:19:32,480 --> 00:19:36,840 Speaker 3: Well does that matter? Now? Does that context matter? So 367 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:39,480 Speaker 3: is it like, oh, well, this, how's this guy kind 368 00:19:39,520 --> 00:19:42,560 Speaker 3: of capassion He's killed twenty people, like he seems like 369 00:19:42,600 --> 00:19:47,760 Speaker 3: a complete psychopath. Where wait, okay, he saved the lives 370 00:19:47,840 --> 00:19:52,640 Speaker 3: of Well that's not Sometimes it's courageous to be kind. 371 00:19:53,160 --> 00:19:56,880 Speaker 3: Sometimes it is courageous, and it is a sign of 372 00:19:56,920 --> 00:20:02,439 Speaker 3: strength to be compassionate. So like living your values doesn't 373 00:20:02,520 --> 00:20:05,680 Speaker 3: have to it doesn't have to be a compromise. It's 374 00:20:05,720 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 3: what's the context of how those values need to show 375 00:20:10,080 --> 00:20:14,440 Speaker 3: up in order to serve you through integrity. And when 376 00:20:14,440 --> 00:20:16,720 Speaker 3: I say integrity, I mean consistency. 377 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:18,920 Speaker 2: Like do what a great example? 378 00:20:19,040 --> 00:20:19,119 Speaker 1: Do? 379 00:20:20,280 --> 00:20:22,879 Speaker 2: That's a great example, dude? I like that. 380 00:20:23,240 --> 00:20:25,560 Speaker 1: I may even use that, and then I'll just I'll 381 00:20:25,600 --> 00:20:27,159 Speaker 1: cite you, of course, and I'll put you in the 382 00:20:27,200 --> 00:20:30,160 Speaker 1: references at the bottom. I'll see if I can squeeze 383 00:20:30,160 --> 00:20:32,240 Speaker 1: that into my thesis somehow, just so you. 384 00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:33,320 Speaker 2: Get a mention in the paper. 385 00:20:34,160 --> 00:20:35,199 Speaker 3: Thank you appreciate that? 386 00:20:35,280 --> 00:20:36,920 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah. 387 00:20:37,280 --> 00:20:40,119 Speaker 1: We were going to chat today a little bit about 388 00:20:40,520 --> 00:20:42,200 Speaker 1: confidence and how that works. 389 00:20:44,119 --> 00:20:46,720 Speaker 2: And as always we meand it around for twenty minutes. 390 00:20:46,760 --> 00:20:47,640 Speaker 2: But I loved it. 391 00:20:49,400 --> 00:20:52,399 Speaker 1: One of the questions I often get answered, or I 392 00:20:52,440 --> 00:20:54,400 Speaker 1: often get asked I should say, is. 393 00:20:56,840 --> 00:20:59,200 Speaker 2: How do I how do. 394 00:20:59,200 --> 00:21:02,199 Speaker 1: I build my confidence around public speaking? Because I'm scared? 395 00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:04,359 Speaker 1: How do I be less scared? How do I be better? 396 00:21:04,440 --> 00:21:06,679 Speaker 1: How do I be And of course the answer is 397 00:21:06,720 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 1: by public speaking right, You can't get good at the 398 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:10,359 Speaker 1: thing that you won't do. 399 00:21:10,480 --> 00:21:15,080 Speaker 2: You can't master what you avoid. 400 00:21:14,800 --> 00:21:18,480 Speaker 1: What what have you had to do or what has 401 00:21:18,600 --> 00:21:24,800 Speaker 1: worked for you over the years in terms of enabling 402 00:21:24,840 --> 00:21:28,879 Speaker 1: you to feel comfortable, more comfortable, less anxious, more confidence, 403 00:21:29,520 --> 00:21:32,640 Speaker 1: and ultimately, you know, being more skillful and more effective 404 00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:33,560 Speaker 1: at what you do. 405 00:21:33,600 --> 00:21:35,439 Speaker 2: And whether or not that was as a speaker or 406 00:21:35,440 --> 00:21:36,720 Speaker 2: a coach or. 407 00:21:36,640 --> 00:21:39,399 Speaker 1: Something else, like what what do you do? How have 408 00:21:39,520 --> 00:21:41,880 Speaker 1: you done it? 409 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,960 Speaker 3: It's been a few things right now, at the top 410 00:21:43,960 --> 00:21:45,680 Speaker 3: of my head, it's three. I mean, if you ask 411 00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:47,440 Speaker 3: me how minutes from now, they'll probably be a fourth. 412 00:21:47,480 --> 00:21:51,280 Speaker 3: But right now the three things were I had one 413 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:58,480 Speaker 3: big thing that was so enormous it kind of superseded 414 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:02,359 Speaker 3: every other emotion that was a distraction. It's not like 415 00:22:02,440 --> 00:22:06,840 Speaker 3: I didn't contend with self doubt, anxiety. It's not like, Okay, 416 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:10,000 Speaker 3: before I got up to speak, well, I was super confident, 417 00:22:10,119 --> 00:22:13,080 Speaker 3: never afraid, No, just the opposite. So I don't know 418 00:22:13,160 --> 00:22:15,679 Speaker 3: if I ever shared this with you, But when I 419 00:22:15,800 --> 00:22:19,280 Speaker 3: first started going out on the road, like consistently where 420 00:22:19,359 --> 00:22:22,600 Speaker 3: I was speaking probably at least once a week my 421 00:22:23,000 --> 00:22:27,679 Speaker 3: crew at NASM, there was this running joke. Especially in 422 00:22:27,840 --> 00:22:31,240 Speaker 3: large rooms like the giant ballrooms, It's like, okay, when 423 00:22:31,280 --> 00:22:33,439 Speaker 3: we announced Bobby, He's going to come in from the 424 00:22:33,480 --> 00:22:36,080 Speaker 3: back of the room. Now, people used to think that 425 00:22:36,359 --> 00:22:41,120 Speaker 3: I was doing that for effect, because it was dramatic 426 00:22:41,160 --> 00:22:43,920 Speaker 3: effect rather than standing on the stage, because I made 427 00:22:43,960 --> 00:22:45,800 Speaker 3: a show of it. I would come in and start 428 00:22:45,840 --> 00:22:48,480 Speaker 3: talking my intro from the back and people are looking 429 00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:51,120 Speaker 3: around like where is he and then yeah, I don't 430 00:22:51,280 --> 00:22:53,480 Speaker 3: and then they would realize this guy's coming up the 431 00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:56,480 Speaker 3: aisle full energy, and then I'm on stage. That was 432 00:22:56,520 --> 00:23:00,960 Speaker 3: my signature. But everybody knew, and they would just take 433 00:23:01,040 --> 00:23:04,840 Speaker 3: the piss out of me mercilessly for this. They knew 434 00:23:04,840 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 3: that the reason for that is when they started introducing me, 435 00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:12,080 Speaker 3: I would get so terrified. I'd have to go find 436 00:23:12,119 --> 00:23:15,280 Speaker 3: the loo because I needed it a week desperately, no 437 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:20,600 Speaker 3: matter what, because I felt so scared. But I knew 438 00:23:20,640 --> 00:23:24,000 Speaker 3: that it was so important, this one thing that I 439 00:23:24,200 --> 00:23:29,240 Speaker 3: wanted to be, this sense of identity, that I would 440 00:23:29,320 --> 00:23:33,600 Speaker 3: get myself in the zone regardless. I think number two 441 00:23:33,640 --> 00:23:40,359 Speaker 3: for me was focusing on becoming very competent, as competent 442 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:43,439 Speaker 3: as I could possibly be. I would wake up super 443 00:23:43,440 --> 00:23:45,920 Speaker 3: early in the morning and just read and like, how 444 00:23:45,920 --> 00:23:49,480 Speaker 3: can I apply this information? What's one action I could 445 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:54,080 Speaker 3: take in my workflow and my daily life teaching where 446 00:23:54,280 --> 00:23:56,880 Speaker 3: I can utilize this information. I'd do the same thing. 447 00:23:56,920 --> 00:23:59,119 Speaker 3: On the way home from Mark, I'd stop off in 448 00:23:59,200 --> 00:24:01,920 Speaker 3: another coffee shop, have a tea. It's in the evening, 449 00:24:02,160 --> 00:24:03,600 Speaker 3: and I would sit there and this is how I 450 00:24:03,640 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 3: would restructure my environment. So I was getting at least 451 00:24:07,119 --> 00:24:11,520 Speaker 3: three hours a day of reading technical material. And then 452 00:24:11,680 --> 00:24:14,879 Speaker 3: in my car, I was always listening to something. I 453 00:24:15,000 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 3: was never driving. And I'm not saying that's the right 454 00:24:17,320 --> 00:24:20,520 Speaker 3: way to be either. Now I probably have arguments against that, 455 00:24:20,960 --> 00:24:25,160 Speaker 3: but I would listen to some form of professional development, 456 00:24:25,720 --> 00:24:29,400 Speaker 3: business book summaries, and just the more competent you are, 457 00:24:30,400 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 3: confidence and competence cohabit together. They feed one another. And 458 00:24:36,400 --> 00:24:40,440 Speaker 3: then the third thing is where your focus is. I've 459 00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:43,320 Speaker 3: always found that when I'm trying to do something for myself, 460 00:24:43,440 --> 00:24:45,760 Speaker 3: right I'm going to go out and I'm going to 461 00:24:45,840 --> 00:24:51,640 Speaker 3: start building a side business consulting or coaching, I never 462 00:24:51,800 --> 00:24:55,879 Speaker 3: do as well as when I'm focused on what is 463 00:24:55,920 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 3: it that I want to provide for other people? How 464 00:24:59,560 --> 00:25:03,199 Speaker 3: do I be and service of them because all that 465 00:25:03,480 --> 00:25:06,000 Speaker 3: doubt and anxiety is this going to work? And the 466 00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:10,480 Speaker 3: history of the times I started businesses and I failed miserably. 467 00:25:10,520 --> 00:25:13,840 Speaker 3: I mean, those are entertaining, but they're there right. Everybody 468 00:25:13,840 --> 00:25:16,399 Speaker 3: has that in their background. There's not a lot of 469 00:25:16,520 --> 00:25:21,360 Speaker 3: mental energy for me to focus inward when I'm completely 470 00:25:21,400 --> 00:25:25,840 Speaker 3: focused outward on a mission that involves other people. So 471 00:25:25,920 --> 00:25:29,840 Speaker 3: for me, it's it was identity. It was the relentless 472 00:25:29,880 --> 00:25:33,359 Speaker 3: pursuit of competence, which came from a passion around the 473 00:25:33,400 --> 00:25:36,879 Speaker 3: subject matter that I was teaching, and it was an 474 00:25:36,920 --> 00:25:41,440 Speaker 3: outwardly focused mission. I would reframe that as originating intention 475 00:25:41,960 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 3: because originating intention, by its nature, is focused outward on 476 00:25:46,800 --> 00:25:49,639 Speaker 3: the person in front of you, within your circle of influence. 477 00:25:49,960 --> 00:25:53,200 Speaker 3: It starts with you. It's not like we and us 478 00:25:53,280 --> 00:25:57,480 Speaker 3: and our mission. It's about what I want for you. 479 00:25:58,119 --> 00:26:02,280 Speaker 3: And the thing about that is I had some train 480 00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:08,000 Speaker 3: me years ago that you are at the extremes either 481 00:26:08,040 --> 00:26:11,639 Speaker 3: your originating intention or you're your shadow. And the more 482 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:15,239 Speaker 3: you are consciously focusing on showing up and being the 483 00:26:15,280 --> 00:26:18,440 Speaker 3: embodiment of what it is that's sacred for you that 484 00:26:18,520 --> 00:26:23,920 Speaker 3: you want for others, the further away you are from 485 00:26:23,960 --> 00:26:26,719 Speaker 3: being your shadow, and the more you move off of that, 486 00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:30,720 Speaker 3: the more you feed the opportunity for your shadow to emerge. 487 00:26:31,840 --> 00:26:36,240 Speaker 3: So that those three things have really helped me with confidence. 488 00:26:36,400 --> 00:26:39,679 Speaker 3: I'll tell you what today, Like, I had a great 489 00:26:39,720 --> 00:26:43,080 Speaker 3: experience with my cohort. So I'm in a Mastermind coaching 490 00:26:43,119 --> 00:26:49,600 Speaker 3: program where they're where we have master coaches taking us 491 00:26:49,600 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 3: as coaches and it's it's a nine month education and 492 00:26:53,880 --> 00:26:59,520 Speaker 3: development plan and someone who who I have a lot 493 00:26:59,520 --> 00:27:04,159 Speaker 3: of respects for. So one of our master instructors a 494 00:27:04,200 --> 00:27:08,159 Speaker 3: couple of months ago, because we consistently are doing you know, 495 00:27:08,240 --> 00:27:11,240 Speaker 3: we're being evaluated, we have to show up and take 496 00:27:11,480 --> 00:27:15,880 Speaker 3: each other through these coaching sessions, and in a very 497 00:27:16,040 --> 00:27:21,240 Speaker 3: lovely and constructive way, said something to the effect of, Wow, 498 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:24,320 Speaker 3: you're really showing up and it's like you're dedicated to 499 00:27:24,359 --> 00:27:28,439 Speaker 3: your process. So I got something in my and what 500 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:31,960 Speaker 3: he meant by that, I think was I was showing up. Okay, 501 00:27:32,040 --> 00:27:34,800 Speaker 3: here's the model I'm going to use. Here's my questions 502 00:27:34,800 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 3: I'm going to ask, And it's like, where are you 503 00:27:40,440 --> 00:27:45,280 Speaker 3: in relation to the client? Like you're fifteen minutes in 504 00:27:45,320 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 3: the future, you already know where you're guiding this conversations 505 00:27:51,160 --> 00:27:53,919 Speaker 3: that that might be selling, that might be consulting, that 506 00:27:54,080 --> 00:27:57,280 Speaker 3: is by far not coaching. And it's because I was 507 00:27:57,320 --> 00:27:59,720 Speaker 3: going through a crisis of confidence because of a lot 508 00:27:59,720 --> 00:28:02,240 Speaker 3: of things that were going on in my not so 509 00:28:02,280 --> 00:28:04,320 Speaker 3: with personal life, but work life. And it was a 510 00:28:04,440 --> 00:28:07,800 Speaker 3: series of things that compounded one on top of another. 511 00:28:08,800 --> 00:28:12,919 Speaker 3: And then what I started doing is, you know, because 512 00:28:13,160 --> 00:28:16,160 Speaker 3: a lot of things that altered behaviors is the environment 513 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:17,879 Speaker 3: we put ourselves in and said, I'm not going to 514 00:28:17,920 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 3: give myself a chance to do that. Where if I 515 00:28:21,160 --> 00:28:24,120 Speaker 3: know that this is this is a mentorship session, we're 516 00:28:24,160 --> 00:28:27,399 Speaker 3: going to be evaluated, I'm not even looking at the sheet. 517 00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:30,920 Speaker 3: So when I show up, I don't know if I'm 518 00:28:30,920 --> 00:28:33,399 Speaker 3: going to have to be the client that day. I 519 00:28:33,400 --> 00:28:35,439 Speaker 3: don't know if I'm going to be evaluated as a 520 00:28:35,480 --> 00:28:39,040 Speaker 3: coach that day. And I don't and I don't even 521 00:28:39,080 --> 00:28:42,720 Speaker 3: know where in that order of like the five pairs 522 00:28:42,720 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 3: that are going I am. So when they say, hey, 523 00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:49,800 Speaker 3: well you know, Bobby, you're a coach, You're going forth, 524 00:28:50,240 --> 00:28:55,400 Speaker 3: I'm like surprised. So it gives me no ability to 525 00:28:55,520 --> 00:28:58,880 Speaker 3: be in my head and to over prepare. And the 526 00:28:58,920 --> 00:29:03,480 Speaker 3: only thing I have to do show up, listen and 527 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:05,800 Speaker 3: figure out how do I serve this person in front 528 00:29:05,800 --> 00:29:07,960 Speaker 3: of me.

And 643 00:34:52,920 --> 00:34:55,680 Speaker 1: the other one is just immersion. And you know, like 644 00:34:55,760 --> 00:34:58,359 Speaker 1: for the last six years.

And because I've just been 648 00:35:07,920 --> 00:35:11,760 Speaker 1: down this rabbit hole for six years. It's just this language. 649 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,200 Speaker 1: It's just this language that I now speak that I 650 00:35:14,239 --> 00:35:17,440 Speaker 1: couldn't speak. It's just this knowledge that's hardwired. It's all 651 00:35:17,440 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: this And so when I get up on stage, not 652 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,400 Speaker 1: because I'm smarter or better, but I just know that 653 00:35:24,440 --> 00:35:28,880 Speaker 1: there's absolutely nobody in the room who knows two percent 654 00:35:28,960 --> 00:35:32,759 Speaker 1: of what I know about this topic. So obviously that 655 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:34,799 Speaker 1: brings confidence, you know. 656 00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:35,959 Speaker 2: So I think. 657 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:42,440 Speaker 1: Knowing what knowing your knowing your topic or whatever it is, 658 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:45,279 Speaker 1: or understanding the role that you need to play and 659 00:35:45,320 --> 00:35:48,200 Speaker 1: how to do that like that, that's probably the key 660 00:35:48,239 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 1: to confidence. 661 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:49,359 Speaker 2: In a way. 662 00:35:50,560 --> 00:35:52,640 Speaker 3: I think that's what. And I'm not suggesting and I 663 00:35:52,680 --> 00:35:55,000 Speaker 3: know you're not suggesting that you don't need to develop 664 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:56,560 Speaker 3: skills to be good on stage. 665 00:35:56,560 --> 00:35:57,480 Speaker 2: You absolutely do. 666 00:35:57,520 --> 00:35:59,279 Speaker 3: And there are frameworks and you know, we could talk 667 00:35:59,320 --> 00:36:01,759 Speaker 3: about some of that. It's not like I know, for me, 668 00:36:01,840 --> 00:36:03,520 Speaker 3: it's not like I walk up and I have no 669 00:36:03,560 --> 00:36:05,719 Speaker 3: idea what I'm going to say, and then I'm so smart. Yeah, 670 00:36:05,800 --> 00:36:07,760 Speaker 3: it all just appears in my brain. No, it doesn't 671 00:36:07,800 --> 00:36:11,920 Speaker 3: work like that. Yeah, my brain has quite a few challenges. 672 00:36:13,800 --> 00:36:17,680 Speaker 3: There's no owner's manual, let's put it that way. But 673 00:36:17,760 --> 00:36:21,400 Speaker 3: I have always created frameworks that help guide you through. 674 00:36:21,480 --> 00:36:23,719 Speaker 3: But one of the things that I was alluding to 675 00:36:23,800 --> 00:36:26,359 Speaker 3: early with confidence is when you're like, oh my god, 676 00:36:26,360 --> 00:36:28,960 Speaker 3: I can never do It's about the presentation. It's about you. 677 00:36:29,080 --> 00:36:31,359 Speaker 3: It's about how you're going to be perceived. It's about 678 00:36:31,360 --> 00:36:34,360 Speaker 3: how you're going to perform, rather than the other person. 679 00:36:34,560 --> 00:36:38,839 Speaker 3: Like you're listening to this right now, imagine that someone 680 00:36:38,880 --> 00:36:41,719 Speaker 3: who you really love you get a call from them 681 00:36:41,719 --> 00:36:45,520 Speaker 3: and it's like their partner like stole old their jewelry 682 00:36:45,960 --> 00:36:48,640 Speaker 3: and hawked it and I don't know, burnt half the 683 00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:51,360 Speaker 3: house down whilst they were having an affair. And it's like, 684 00:36:51,360 --> 00:36:54,479 Speaker 3: oh god, I really want to go and talk to them. 685 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,680 Speaker 3: But the things that I'm going to say, I remember 686 00:36:56,719 --> 00:36:59,200 Speaker 3: the last time, like when we were younger, I said, hey, 687 00:36:59,239 --> 00:37:02,520 Speaker 3: that guy, that girl's no good for you. Really, yeah, 688 00:37:03,200 --> 00:37:06,360 Speaker 3: you know, it almost ended the friendship. And I'm so 689 00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,400 Speaker 3: anxious and you're gonna go there and you're gonna stutter 690 00:37:09,480 --> 00:37:11,399 Speaker 3: through all that, and you're in the car and you're 691 00:37:11,400 --> 00:37:13,640 Speaker 3: going to meet that person at a coffee shop because 692 00:37:13,640 --> 00:37:16,279 Speaker 3: your friend really needs you. And you show up the 693 00:37:16,320 --> 00:37:20,600 Speaker 3: coffee shop and you are feeling like you're gonna throw up. 694 00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,480 Speaker 3: You don't know what you're gonna say, if you're going 695 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:25,480 Speaker 3: to say anything at all, And then you look at 696 00:37:25,560 --> 00:37:28,640 Speaker 3: him or you look at her. They've got tears in 697 00:37:28,680 --> 00:37:31,480 Speaker 3: their eyes, running down their face, and you're overwhelmed with 698 00:37:31,560 --> 00:37:35,960 Speaker 3: this incredible love and care for the person across from you, 699 00:37:36,080 --> 00:37:40,560 Speaker 3: and you can't see or feel anything other than what's 700 00:37:40,600 --> 00:37:43,840 Speaker 3: being generated by that relationship that person, what it means 701 00:37:43,880 --> 00:37:49,160 Speaker 3: to you, what's the difference in that conversation. It might 702 00:37:49,200 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 3: not be comfortable, it might not be smooth, but you're 703 00:37:52,400 --> 00:37:54,720 Speaker 3: going to say the right thing to the right person 704 00:37:54,840 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 3: at the right time, in the right way in that context. 705 00:37:57,560 --> 00:38:02,080 Speaker 3: Because what is driving the ability that you have to 706 00:38:02,160 --> 00:38:06,839 Speaker 3: masterfully communicate in ways that you have masterfully communicated at 707 00:38:06,920 --> 00:38:10,480 Speaker 3: so many times, if you're honest about tracing back all 708 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:14,279 Speaker 3: of those moments in life, what's channeling that is the 709 00:38:14,320 --> 00:38:19,120 Speaker 3: emotion and what that relationship represents That's why originating attention 710 00:38:19,239 --> 00:38:21,360 Speaker 3: is so important. Who are the people need the audience? 711 00:38:22,000 --> 00:38:24,560 Speaker 3: What do you care most about? What do they represent today? 712 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 3: When I was coaching, one of the things that helped 713 00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:32,239 Speaker 3: is my cohort of coaches are all amazing people. And 714 00:38:32,280 --> 00:38:36,600 Speaker 3: when I'm looking at a screen at this woman that 715 00:38:36,840 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 3: is my client for this session, she is I remember 716 00:38:41,600 --> 00:38:45,560 Speaker 3: the times where she spoke to me and she was insightful, 717 00:38:46,400 --> 00:38:50,800 Speaker 3: she was completely charismatic, compassionate, and she brings her whole self, 718 00:38:51,239 --> 00:38:55,360 Speaker 3: And I'm like, this woman is important to I almost 719 00:38:55,400 --> 00:38:57,880 Speaker 3: sent her name earlier. This woman is important to me. 720 00:38:58,760 --> 00:39:01,279 Speaker 3: So every word that was coming out of romances, It's like, oh, 721 00:39:01,360 --> 00:39:04,880 Speaker 3: what's the what's the rate tape of reflection? You know, 722 00:39:05,000 --> 00:39:10,000 Speaker 3: is it normal? Is it amplified? Am I reflecting simplistically? Emotionally? 723 00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:13,759 Speaker 3: Am I reflecting? Need? None of that shit mattered. I'm 724 00:39:13,800 --> 00:39:16,320 Speaker 3: just going to show up for her And that cuts 725 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:18,239 Speaker 3: out a lot of the noise. Now, if you do that, 726 00:39:18,440 --> 00:39:21,640 Speaker 3: you don't have the skills, you're screwed, right, But if 727 00:39:21,680 --> 00:39:26,640 Speaker 3: you have the skills it and you're looking outwardly, it 728 00:39:26,680 --> 00:39:29,280 Speaker 3: gets rid of a lot of the distraction in the background. 729 00:39:30,000 --> 00:39:33,760 Speaker 2: Yes, yes, It's. 730 00:39:34,320 --> 00:39:37,120 Speaker 1: Like I think, I think that you know, having that 731 00:39:37,239 --> 00:39:42,959 Speaker 1: conversation versus or you know, when you're having those those 732 00:39:43,000 --> 00:39:46,200 Speaker 1: meaningful exchanges with people in the moment versus what you 733 00:39:46,320 --> 00:39:50,720 Speaker 1: thought you might do when you got there. Like I often, 734 00:39:50,760 --> 00:39:53,239 Speaker 1: I'll go to meet someone and I think I know 735 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:54,880 Speaker 1: what I'm going to talk about it, what I'm going 736 00:39:54,960 --> 00:39:57,160 Speaker 1: to say, or how I'm going to approach it, and 737 00:39:57,200 --> 00:40:01,560 Speaker 1: then I get there and I'm like, Okay, plan because 738 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,680 Speaker 1: Plan A, B and C ain't gonna work. 739 00:40:04,360 --> 00:40:08,719 Speaker 2: You know.
