1 00:00:08,440 --> 00:00:14,360 Speaker 1: Get It All Advice, Hezello, Helloa, Llall, Hello, and Rob Shooter. 2 00:00:14,840 --> 00:00:18,639 Speaker 1: Welcome to a special edition of The Naughty but Nice Show. 3 00:00:18,680 --> 00:00:22,680 Speaker 1: So Monday to Friday. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, 4 00:00:23,079 --> 00:00:25,919 Speaker 1: we do a twenty minute podcast on all the celebrity 5 00:00:25,920 --> 00:00:29,120 Speaker 1: news or the celebrity gossip of the day. We love it. However, 6 00:00:29,240 --> 00:00:31,880 Speaker 1: as well as being one of the most dry gossip 7 00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,760 Speaker 1: columnists in the world, I'm also a best selling author 8 00:00:35,840 --> 00:00:39,440 Speaker 1: of self help author I'm recognized as one of the 9 00:00:39,520 --> 00:00:43,919 Speaker 1: leading experts on habits, on change, on self and so 10 00:00:43,960 --> 00:00:46,920 Speaker 1: On the weekends, we do these short podcasts only about 11 00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:50,160 Speaker 1: ten minutes to hopefully set us up to have an 12 00:00:50,159 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 1: amazing week, and amazing month, an amazing year, and amazing life. 13 00:00:57,120 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: Today's podcast is all about remembering that every smart person 14 00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,960 Speaker 1: sets a deadlon. How often do you put off doing 15 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:12,759 Speaker 1: something that makes you feel uncomfortable? Saying I will do 16 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: it tomorrow is the easiest way to make sure it 17 00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:21,160 Speaker 1: will never happen. I know it's a lot easier to 18 00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:25,959 Speaker 1: say I'll do it tomorrow, but tomorrow never comes unless 19 00:01:26,000 --> 00:01:30,480 Speaker 1: you set a deadlon and you stick to it. No 20 00:01:30,520 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: one knows that better than I do. After almost a 21 00:01:33,840 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 1: decade of putting things off and pushing away my dreams, 22 00:01:39,200 --> 00:01:42,880 Speaker 1: all of that changed when I started being honest with 23 00:01:42,959 --> 00:01:46,920 Speaker 1: myself about the real reason I was doing it, The 24 00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:49,440 Speaker 1: real reason I was putting everything off until tomorrow, the 25 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: real reason I could never get anything done. The real 26 00:01:53,200 --> 00:01:58,680 Speaker 1: reason was because I was scared, frightened to go after 27 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:03,600 Speaker 1: my dreams. It felt safer to convince myself that I 28 00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:07,640 Speaker 1: would get around to it one day, rather than letting 29 00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:13,480 Speaker 1: today be the one day of getting it done. Pablo 30 00:02:13,600 --> 00:02:17,519 Speaker 1: Picasso said the following, I love this quote. Only put 31 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: off until tomorrow what you are willing to die having 32 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 1: left undone. How truthful is that, when it comes to 33 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:32,440 Speaker 1: getting stuff done, you really have two options, change or excuses. 34 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:39,120 Speaker 1: It's that simple. Excuses are just our fears, desperately hoping 35 00:02:39,240 --> 00:02:43,560 Speaker 1: to convince you not to do something newer, keeping you 36 00:02:43,680 --> 00:02:47,680 Speaker 1: in your comfort zone, in a place that feels familiar. 37 00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,560 Speaker 1: You are never too busy, never too old, never to stooping, 38 00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:56,200 Speaker 1: never too fat, never to anything to make a change. 39 00:02:56,440 --> 00:03:00,440 Speaker 1: You're making excuses. What you're doing is making excuses because 40 00:03:00,480 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: you were frightened. Then next time you make an excuse, 41 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:07,359 Speaker 1: admit it. Admit that you are scared, and then this 42 00:03:07,400 --> 00:03:11,919 Speaker 1: is really important, set a deadline. Julie Andrews, who I love. 43 00:03:11,960 --> 00:03:15,119 Speaker 1: I've met her a couple of times, said quote. There 44 00:03:15,120 --> 00:03:18,320 Speaker 1: will be many times in your life, at school or 45 00:03:18,320 --> 00:03:21,560 Speaker 1: when you are a grown up, when people will distract 46 00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:26,200 Speaker 1: or divert you from what needs to be done. You 47 00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:30,000 Speaker 1: may even welcome the distraction, but if you use it 48 00:03:30,040 --> 00:03:33,640 Speaker 1: as an excuse for not doing what you are really 49 00:03:33,639 --> 00:03:36,800 Speaker 1: supposed to do, you can blame no one but yourself. 50 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:41,000 Speaker 1: If you truly wish to accomplish something, you should allow 51 00:03:41,040 --> 00:03:45,119 Speaker 1: nothing to stop you, and chances are you will succeed. 52 00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 1: I would distract myself all the time. Now I understand 53 00:03:50,360 --> 00:03:53,800 Speaker 1: that what I was doing was actually looking for excuses 54 00:03:54,240 --> 00:03:57,360 Speaker 1: because I was scared. I didn't think I deserved a 55 00:03:57,400 --> 00:04:00,360 Speaker 1: good life. It's that sad, but it's true. Didn't think 56 00:04:00,360 --> 00:04:03,040 Speaker 1: I deserved it. I lived in fear that one day 57 00:04:03,160 --> 00:04:08,240 Speaker 1: I would be exposed as a total fraud. Now I 58 00:04:08,440 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: know I deserve a great life and won't let anyone, 59 00:04:11,880 --> 00:04:18,719 Speaker 1: including myself sabotaget. Don't be scared, be smart. When we 60 00:04:18,760 --> 00:04:24,279 Speaker 1: are honest with ourselves, our fears don't disappear, but our excuses. 61 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:28,240 Speaker 1: Do you have to push forward even if your legs 62 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:33,120 Speaker 1: are shaking, keep walking, even if your voice is trembling 63 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:38,679 Speaker 1: with fear. Speak up and refuse to be silenced. Don't 64 00:04:38,680 --> 00:04:42,679 Speaker 1: forget you are smart and brave enough to go after 65 00:04:42,839 --> 00:04:47,960 Speaker 1: all your dreams. Mark Zuckerberg said quote, the biggest risk 66 00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:52,320 Speaker 1: is not taking any risk at all. The only strategy 67 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:58,440 Speaker 1: that is guaranteed to fail is not taking risks. Smart 68 00:04:58,480 --> 00:05:02,000 Speaker 1: people are never too busy to make time to do 69 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:07,279 Speaker 1: what is important. They don't cloak themselves with excuses to 70 00:05:07,480 --> 00:05:12,840 Speaker 1: stop themselves from doing anything new. Rather, they opt for 71 00:05:12,920 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: an extraordinary life rather than a safe one. You have 72 00:05:17,920 --> 00:05:21,240 Speaker 1: to take chances or you're never going to grow. And 73 00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:25,560 Speaker 1: if you never grow because you keep making excuses, you 74 00:05:25,640 --> 00:05:31,200 Speaker 1: will regret it. Cameronda said quote, Your regrets aren't what 75 00:05:31,240 --> 00:05:34,919 Speaker 1: you did, but what you didn't do. So I take 76 00:05:35,240 --> 00:05:42,120 Speaker 1: every opportunity me too, Cameron. Procrastination is not who you are, 77 00:05:42,480 --> 00:05:46,080 Speaker 1: it's what you do. Let me say that again. Procrastination, 78 00:05:46,200 --> 00:05:49,240 Speaker 1: it's not who you are, it's what you do. It's 79 00:05:49,240 --> 00:05:54,200 Speaker 1: a bad habit to procrastinate. It's not in your DNA, 80 00:05:54,360 --> 00:05:57,919 Speaker 1: it's not your natural state of being. And It's not 81 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: something that was God given to you. No one was 82 00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,920 Speaker 1: born a procrastinator. Rather, some have a bad habit of procrastinating. 83 00:06:06,960 --> 00:06:10,320 Speaker 1: I know I did to break it. Write down all 84 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 1: things that you don't want to do today. The phone 85 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,520 Speaker 1: calls you want to ignore, the emails you don't want 86 00:06:16,520 --> 00:06:19,920 Speaker 1: to respond to, and the conversations you don't want to have, 87 00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:25,479 Speaker 1: and the tasks that you've been putting off forever. Now, 88 00:06:25,640 --> 00:06:29,360 Speaker 1: start with the one thing you want to do the least. 89 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:31,920 Speaker 1: Get it out of the way, and get it out 90 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,000 Speaker 1: of your mind. The very last person I want to 91 00:06:35,040 --> 00:06:38,400 Speaker 1: speak to is always the first person I call. The 92 00:06:38,520 --> 00:06:41,400 Speaker 1: thing that I avoid the most is the first thing 93 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:44,920 Speaker 1: I get done in the morning. It does not matter 94 00:06:45,240 --> 00:06:48,360 Speaker 1: if you start scared, or late, or even start over. 95 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:52,120 Speaker 1: You just need to start, and once you do, you 96 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,480 Speaker 1: will discover that that is the best way to silence 97 00:06:56,640 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 1: your fears. John Lennon said quote, there are two basic 98 00:07:01,760 --> 00:07:07,600 Speaker 1: motivating forces in life, fear and love. When we are afraid, 99 00:07:07,880 --> 00:07:10,920 Speaker 1: we pull back from life. When we are in love, 100 00:07:11,440 --> 00:07:15,160 Speaker 1: we open to all that life has to offer. We 101 00:07:15,240 --> 00:07:18,800 Speaker 1: need to learn to love ourselves first. If we cannot 102 00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:22,960 Speaker 1: love ourselves, we cannot be fully open to our ability 103 00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:26,640 Speaker 1: to love others. Take a deep breath and have faith 104 00:07:26,640 --> 00:07:32,600 Speaker 1: in yourself every lesson, every challenge, and every hard moment. 105 00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:37,240 Speaker 1: Everything you are learning along the way will help you 106 00:07:37,320 --> 00:07:41,800 Speaker 1: to get where you need to go. And always set 107 00:07:42,200 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: a deadline. Ashton Kutcher send quote, The sexiest thing in 108 00:07:48,000 --> 00:07:52,520 Speaker 1: the world is being really smart and being thoughtful and 109 00:07:52,680 --> 00:07:57,400 Speaker 1: being generous. Everything else is crap. I promise you it's 110 00:07:57,400 --> 00:07:59,480 Speaker 1: just crap. People try to sell you to make you 111 00:07:59,560 --> 00:08:04,520 Speaker 1: feel like less, so don't buy it. Be smart, be generous, 112 00:08:04,840 --> 00:08:10,640 Speaker 1: be thoughtful, and always always set a deadline. Hey, thank 113 00:08:10,680 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: you so much for listening to these weekend editions of 114 00:08:13,640 --> 00:08:16,080 Speaker 1: The Naughty but Nice Show. I know it's a little 115 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:20,840 Speaker 1: strange having the in your ear Monday to Friday talking 116 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,760 Speaker 1: reporting on celebrities, and then on the weekend doing this, 117 00:08:24,080 --> 00:08:27,600 Speaker 1: but I love it, and our numbers are just so phenomenal. 118 00:08:27,880 --> 00:08:30,320 Speaker 1: I think we're really hitting a nerve here. We all 119 00:08:30,360 --> 00:08:34,640 Speaker 1: need just ten minutes, ten minutes. It's every weekend to 120 00:08:34,760 --> 00:08:42,000 Speaker 1: think about ourselves. After all, you are the start. It's 121 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:44,040 Speaker 1: not even nice with Rah
