WEBVTT - The Power of Vision Boards 0:00:03.680 --> 0:00:06.920 A vision board works, however, and whatever energy you put 0:00:06.960 --> 0:00:11.000 into it. It's about what you want to achieve, either 0:00:11.119 --> 0:00:14.560 short term or long term. I like to deep clean 0:00:14.640 --> 0:00:18.240 my home. I cleaned out my closet. It's about really 0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:21.479 cleaning out and removing the old to bring in the new. 0:00:22.400 --> 0:00:27.120 My resolutions for this is one that I've been working 0:00:27.200 --> 0:00:29.319 on for like a long time. You guys, I'm gonna 0:00:29.320 --> 0:00:31.840 be wro honest with you straight up here being on time. 0:00:38.800 --> 0:00:42.000 Hey guys, Happy Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday, or whatever 0:00:42.120 --> 0:00:44.120 day of the week it is for you. I hope 0:00:44.120 --> 0:00:46.680 you're all doing great on this last Monday of the month. 0:00:47.000 --> 0:00:50.159 I'm feeling great, I'm feeling hopeful, and I'm very excited 0:00:50.240 --> 0:00:52.720 to see what this new year brings. I still can't 0:00:52.720 --> 0:00:55.440 believe I'm recording season two of Chickens and Chilled thanks 0:00:55.480 --> 0:00:57.800 to you, guys. I remember having a podcast on my 0:00:57.880 --> 0:01:00.360 vision board a while ago, and now here we are 0:01:01.120 --> 0:01:03.320 speaking of vision boards. I put together a vision board 0:01:03.320 --> 0:01:07.680 for you. Might be saying, hey, chick is January. I 0:01:07.720 --> 0:01:10.400 know it is, but I actually follow the Chinese calendar 0:01:10.800 --> 0:01:14.520 which starts January, which is why I'm sharing this episode 0:01:14.520 --> 0:01:16.880 with you guys. Today. This year is a year of 0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:19.520 the Rabbit. By the way, I've made some resolutions and 0:01:19.520 --> 0:01:21.480 I have a few things I'm looking forward to this year. 0:01:21.560 --> 0:01:30.280 So let's get into it. This is chick ease and chill. Now. 0:01:30.440 --> 0:01:32.280 I just want to say you don't have to wait 0:01:32.400 --> 0:01:35.200 until January one to start working towards your goals. But 0:01:35.240 --> 0:01:37.440 it is a pretty popular time to do so, and 0:01:37.480 --> 0:01:40.319 it's the time when I really get focused and organized. 0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.600 So one of the things I like to create is 0:01:42.600 --> 0:01:46.240 a fission board. Now what I do, especially in January 0:01:46.640 --> 0:01:50.480 a little bit December, I start writing down what I 0:01:50.600 --> 0:01:53.680 want to add or remove from my vision board, Okay, 0:01:54.240 --> 0:01:56.200 and then I start my vision board in February. But 0:01:56.280 --> 0:02:00.600 because I go based off of the Chinese calendar, that's 0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:03.560 just my personal choice. But again, a vision board works however, 0:02:03.720 --> 0:02:06.400 and whatever energy you put into it. So if you 0:02:06.440 --> 0:02:09.480 want to start it before the new year or right 0:02:09.680 --> 0:02:12.320 on January one, or however, it works. It's just more 0:02:12.360 --> 0:02:18.320 than anything, it's really being intentional about what you want 0:02:18.760 --> 0:02:23.760 to achieve, either short term or long term. Okay. So anyways, 0:02:24.040 --> 0:02:26.080 right now, what I'm doing or in January, I'm just 0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.919 writing down Okay, these are the things that I want 0:02:28.960 --> 0:02:32.040 for this particular year, this is what I want in 0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:34.600 five years, this is what I want for my retirement. 0:02:34.680 --> 0:02:37.080 I have already on my vision board like things that 0:02:37.120 --> 0:02:40.760 I want long term, like you know, a yacht for instance, 0:02:40.840 --> 0:02:42.200 you know what I mean, Because it's good to have 0:02:42.320 --> 0:02:44.880 on your vision board things like that that seem a 0:02:44.880 --> 0:02:46.800 little like crazy, you know what I mean. For me, 0:02:46.880 --> 0:02:48.760 a yah is like it's it's a lot of money, 0:02:48.800 --> 0:02:50.280 you know what I mean. And I don't know if 0:02:50.280 --> 0:02:53.600 I necessarily like need that. Obviously it's more of a luxury. 0:02:53.639 --> 0:02:56.280 But it's good to have things like that, some material 0:02:56.400 --> 0:02:59.920 things to keep you grounded, to keep you connected with 0:03:00.000 --> 0:03:03.480 the materialistic world, okay, because it just keeps you, keeps 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.360 the energy flowing. I know it sounds a little weird, 0:03:05.440 --> 0:03:07.400 but it's always good to have something like that. For 0:03:07.440 --> 0:03:10.840 a long time, for a very long time, I had 0:03:10.880 --> 0:03:15.520 a black bus, a black tour bus with my logo 0:03:15.680 --> 0:03:18.680 on the side. I had it on there for I 0:03:18.720 --> 0:03:21.680 want to say, a good four years, maybe even five. 0:03:21.760 --> 0:03:24.639 You guys, I would just keep removing it, setting the 0:03:25.040 --> 0:03:27.320 energy behind it, and putting it onto my new vision board. 0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.880 I think a couple of times, I um just got 0:03:30.880 --> 0:03:34.120 a new a new picture of of of a tour bus, 0:03:34.560 --> 0:03:37.720 and finally I got it in. You guys. It took 0:03:37.720 --> 0:03:41.520 a while, but I was persistent. And I didn't even 0:03:41.600 --> 0:03:44.200 know it was going to be black. I kid you not. 0:03:44.880 --> 0:03:48.000 I didn't even know. Like I just said, I we 0:03:48.080 --> 0:03:50.120 need to wrap it. I had the bond that take 0:03:50.160 --> 0:03:51.560 care of it. They're like, oh, we're gonna wrap it black. 0:03:51.560 --> 0:03:53.280 I'm like, oh my god, that's crazy. That's the color 0:03:53.480 --> 0:03:56.360 of of like what's on my vision board. It's just 0:03:56.440 --> 0:03:58.360 it's crazy, you guys. It's all about the intention, the 0:03:58.400 --> 0:04:00.800 intention that you put behind and what you really want. 0:04:00.840 --> 0:04:02.520 And for me, it was like I don't need it, 0:04:02.600 --> 0:04:04.840 but I wanted sort of thing. So now I have 0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:06.960 a yacht. I want a big as yacht. I don't 0:04:06.960 --> 0:04:08.680 know what I'm gonna get that, but whatever, it's giving 0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:12.200 me grounded and connected, you know. Anyways, So if you've 0:04:12.240 --> 0:04:15.080 never done a vision board, one thing that I recommend 0:04:15.280 --> 0:04:19.400 for you to do is get a white board, get 0:04:19.560 --> 0:04:23.880 a corkboard, get um one of those like you can 0:04:23.920 --> 0:04:27.679 get them at Office Depot, at they have them at Target, 0:04:27.800 --> 0:04:30.360 they have them at Michael's. They're the ones that kind 0:04:30.360 --> 0:04:32.839 of fold into three parts. That's the kind that I 0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:35.880 use because it's lightweight and it's also just easier to 0:04:35.920 --> 0:04:38.599 work with. I like to use like glue sticks. I 0:04:38.680 --> 0:04:42.000 love glue sticks, So get yourself one of those, and 0:04:42.520 --> 0:04:45.839 get magazines. I like to use magazines, or I google 0:04:45.880 --> 0:04:49.159 pictures and then I just print out what I want, 0:04:49.320 --> 0:04:52.320 and I like to get pictures recent pictures of myself 0:04:53.040 --> 0:04:55.640 to kind of cut out the faces, for instance. For 0:04:55.680 --> 0:04:57.280 a long time, I think I've told you guys the 0:04:57.279 --> 0:05:02.000 story before. I had a pay chure of a Latina magazine. 0:05:02.360 --> 0:05:05.800 Latina magazine doesn't exist anymore like physical, they're only like online. 0:05:05.800 --> 0:05:08.680 But anyways, they did for a while, and it was 0:05:08.800 --> 0:05:10.480 I love Shakira, by the way, I'm a huge fan. 0:05:10.720 --> 0:05:13.400 So I got the Shakira cover and I put my 0:05:13.440 --> 0:05:16.200 face over hers and I put my name cheek ease. 0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:18.760 I had it on my vision board for about four years. 0:05:19.360 --> 0:05:22.200 Finally I got the cover and I'm looking at it here, 0:05:22.440 --> 0:05:26.760 what year with it? I got the cover in fifteen, 0:05:26.800 --> 0:05:29.880 you guys, April, and I had it on my vision 0:05:29.880 --> 0:05:33.600 board since twenty eleven. Since two thousand eleven, I had 0:05:33.600 --> 0:05:36.560 it on my vision board. The face of Shakira. So 0:05:36.560 --> 0:05:39.080 what I did was just put my face a picture 0:05:39.080 --> 0:05:40.719 of meat on top of it. So it's like you 0:05:40.839 --> 0:05:45.560 have to really believe it, and it could be anything. 0:05:45.600 --> 0:05:47.479 It could be. I want a new house. I told 0:05:47.480 --> 0:05:49.760 you guys a story too about my house in Silmar. 0:05:50.279 --> 0:05:53.159 I had a yellow house on my white yellow I 0:05:53.200 --> 0:05:55.279 don't know. It's the picture that I found in a magazine. 0:05:55.320 --> 0:05:57.560 I cut it out and I put on my vision 0:05:57.600 --> 0:05:59.360 board and I was like, I want a house. I 0:05:59.400 --> 0:06:01.359 want a house, want to own my own house. Because 0:06:01.640 --> 0:06:04.160 I hadn't owned my own house. I was renting. So 0:06:04.720 --> 0:06:07.159 the house happened to be yellow. And I swear to 0:06:07.240 --> 0:06:10.080 you I was looking for houses for like six months, 0:06:10.320 --> 0:06:12.800 and when I bought my first house in Silmar, the 0:06:12.920 --> 0:06:18.320 freaking house was yellow. Dude, I never wanted a yellow house. 0:06:18.720 --> 0:06:21.400 I just thought, okay, you just put a freaking like. 0:06:21.520 --> 0:06:23.960 You know, you can be as specific and detailed as 0:06:24.000 --> 0:06:26.240 you want, and the universe is always listening to you, guys. 0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:27.640 I didn't ask for a yellow house. I was just 0:06:27.680 --> 0:06:29.719 asking for a house. And when I walked up to 0:06:29.720 --> 0:06:33.000 the house, I was like, oh, ship, on my vision board, 0:06:33.000 --> 0:06:36.320 the house is yellow. Later on, I painted it white. 0:06:36.360 --> 0:06:38.400 Because I never wanted a damn yellow house. But I 0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.159 was grateful. I was like, oh my gosh, and I 0:06:40.160 --> 0:06:42.440 got the house. There was four offers before me and 0:06:42.600 --> 0:06:45.000 litching gay and I was like, I want this house, 0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:49.200 and thank goodness, I got it. I was the fifth 0:06:49.200 --> 0:06:51.720 offer and I thought, and we got it. Thank the Lord. 0:06:52.120 --> 0:06:54.599 But anyway, so it's important you guys to be very 0:06:54.600 --> 0:07:00.000 specific to do it like personal life work and then future. 0:07:00.279 --> 0:07:01.760 You know what I mean. That's how I do it, 0:07:02.600 --> 0:07:07.440 And put on soothing music, meditation music. I like to 0:07:07.440 --> 0:07:11.560 pray before I start. My God guide me through these 0:07:11.600 --> 0:07:16.760 magazines or in my mind, opened up my creativity, universe, 0:07:16.880 --> 0:07:18.440 whatever it is that you believe in. It's just all 0:07:18.440 --> 0:07:23.600 about having faith and just open my thoughts, my desires, 0:07:23.720 --> 0:07:27.400 what's best for me. Open the roads to my highest good. 0:07:27.640 --> 0:07:29.640 That's a that's a very important thing to say. Open 0:07:29.760 --> 0:07:32.160 the roads to my highest good. Guide me as to 0:07:32.200 --> 0:07:34.560 what it is that you want. These are my desires. 0:07:34.560 --> 0:07:35.960 But at the end of the day, may your will 0:07:36.000 --> 0:07:38.880 be done. So I pray and then I just have 0:07:39.000 --> 0:07:42.320 fun with it. I put on some music, relaxing music 0:07:42.400 --> 0:07:45.640 or whatever music inspires you. And you have your magazines, 0:07:45.720 --> 0:07:48.040 you have the pictures of yourselves and then you just 0:07:48.560 --> 0:07:51.800 put your face on top of it. Like for instance, 0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:55.440 I had my Grammy with the picture of the first one. 0:07:55.560 --> 0:07:59.080 Was it Selena? Was Selena? Yep, she had her Grammy 0:07:59.120 --> 0:08:00.960 and I had it on my vision board and that's 0:08:00.960 --> 0:08:02.560 when I won the first Grammy. I had on my 0:08:02.600 --> 0:08:05.600 vision board for two years and it was Selena and 0:08:05.640 --> 0:08:08.040 I put my face on top of Selena's and I 0:08:08.080 --> 0:08:13.640 got my first Grammy. Then in one in February, I 0:08:13.720 --> 0:08:16.440 redid my vision board because I had already want to Grammy, 0:08:16.440 --> 0:08:20.040 so I said, I want another Grammy. So I am 0:08:20.120 --> 0:08:25.560 not joking. I have the picture of Beyonce holding three Grammys. 0:08:25.880 --> 0:08:27.400 I want to say, it's Beyonce. I don't remember. It 0:08:27.440 --> 0:08:30.840 has to Beyonce, Rihanna. I think it's Rihanna. Anyways, it's 0:08:30.920 --> 0:08:33.360 three because I covered their face. I covered their face 0:08:33.400 --> 0:08:36.479 with my face with picture of myself, and it's three Grammys. 0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:43.719 Three Grammys. Okay. And I won my second and I'm 0:08:43.760 --> 0:08:48.080 nominated for my third. So God, Willie, I don't know, 0:08:48.160 --> 0:08:51.040 the universe is listening, so I want it. So just 0:08:51.120 --> 0:08:54.640 little things like that that have come true. I truly 0:08:54.679 --> 0:08:57.040 believe in in vision boards. And the thing is, you, guys, 0:08:57.160 --> 0:08:59.520 is not like this magical board that it's like, oh 0:08:59.559 --> 0:09:01.680 my god, Like no, it's what you do is you're 0:09:01.720 --> 0:09:05.000 setting the intention, the energy, and you have to put 0:09:05.040 --> 0:09:07.280 it in a place where you can see it every day, 0:09:07.320 --> 0:09:10.040 but that it's not exposed to other people. But okay, 0:09:10.080 --> 0:09:13.600 exist lambilia. I believe exist lambidia. There's a lot of 0:09:13.720 --> 0:09:16.320 envious people that you have to be careful with who 0:09:16.400 --> 0:09:18.839 you invite in your sacred space anyways, in your home 0:09:19.000 --> 0:09:20.560 or in your office. I have it in my office 0:09:20.600 --> 0:09:23.160 because that's where work comes from. And I see it 0:09:23.200 --> 0:09:25.240 and it just inspires me, like Okay, I'm like I 0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:27.160 have that goal. So it's like you're seeing it and 0:09:27.200 --> 0:09:29.600 you have it in your mind and it's like it's 0:09:29.640 --> 0:09:31.480 the law of attraction, you guys, That's what it is. 0:09:31.480 --> 0:09:33.120 It's like, Okay, I want to I want to do that. 0:09:33.120 --> 0:09:35.320 I'm gonna work towards it. It's not just I'm gonna 0:09:35.320 --> 0:09:36.800 put up a bunch of pictures and I'm just gonna 0:09:36.800 --> 0:09:38.319 sit on my ass and not do anything. No, it 0:09:38.360 --> 0:09:40.679 doesn't work like that. It's what am I going to 0:09:40.760 --> 0:09:43.959 do every day to take a step towards that goal. 0:09:44.559 --> 0:09:46.520 That's what it is. It's having it in your mind 0:09:46.720 --> 0:09:48.559 every single day and you're seeing it, and you're seeing 0:09:48.559 --> 0:09:51.320 it and it goes into your subconscious and you also 0:09:51.400 --> 0:09:57.160 do your work. You can't just sit there and be like, okay, 0:09:57.200 --> 0:09:59.480 God help me and you don't do anything like. You 0:09:59.760 --> 0:10:01.800 have have to work towards it. You have to be 0:10:02.200 --> 0:10:04.320 a good person as well. You have to help out 0:10:04.360 --> 0:10:06.640 the world. You have to be grateful for what you 0:10:06.720 --> 0:10:10.000 have so that if you're grateful for what you have now, 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:13.200 then the universe is listening and saying, Okay, then maybe 0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:15.280 I can give this person this that they want because 0:10:15.280 --> 0:10:17.320 there are already a grateful person. Does that make sense. 0:10:17.559 --> 0:10:19.800 It's all about having an attitude of gratitude. I say 0:10:19.800 --> 0:10:21.600 it all the damn time. I'm gonna say it forever. 0:10:22.200 --> 0:10:26.840 Attitude of gratitude is key, being consistent, being disciplined, doing 0:10:26.920 --> 0:10:30.440 something every day towards your mission in life. It's not 0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:32.400 just sitting there and waiting for everything to fall from 0:10:32.400 --> 0:10:34.040 the sky. It does not work like that, you guys. 0:10:34.320 --> 0:10:36.199 So that's why I have mine in my office. For 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.160 a long time, I had it in my closet upstairs. 0:10:38.160 --> 0:10:40.320 I had it in my restroom. That's where I pray 0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:42.880 in my restroom and in my closet when I'm getting dressed, 0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:44.720 because i'd be able to see it. And sometimes what 0:10:44.720 --> 0:10:47.160 I'll do is just grab some Balo Santo or incense 0:10:47.160 --> 0:10:49.720 and I and I clean it. I I just you know, 0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:52.719 God protect it, cleanse any negative energy that has come 0:10:52.760 --> 0:10:55.600 into like the house, I don't know whatever, and I 0:10:55.720 --> 0:10:58.600 just cleanse it. Cleanse my vision board, you know, raise 0:10:58.640 --> 0:11:01.319 a vibration of my vision bull word. It's just all 0:11:01.360 --> 0:11:05.320 about having those intentions, you guys. That that's what having 0:11:05.320 --> 0:11:13.800 a vision board is all about. Now we can go 0:11:13.840 --> 0:11:16.320 into especially because you know it's a new year and 0:11:16.520 --> 0:11:18.880 we want to start off on the right foot. I 0:11:18.960 --> 0:11:22.440 like to deep clean my home. In December, I cleaned 0:11:22.440 --> 0:11:25.760 out my closet and even though there's a lot of stuff, 0:11:25.760 --> 0:11:28.720 you guys that I love, a lot of clothes that 0:11:28.760 --> 0:11:31.120 I love that I'm like, oh, like maybe I could 0:11:31.120 --> 0:11:33.160 save it or you know, because a lot of my 0:11:33.200 --> 0:11:35.360 clothes wasn't fitting anymore. Because you know, let me tell 0:11:35.360 --> 0:11:38.920 your girl is now as medium, which means I'm a medium, 0:11:38.920 --> 0:11:40.880 but I could be you know, I can fit into 0:11:40.880 --> 0:11:42.880 a small and very excited to share that with you guys. 0:11:42.880 --> 0:11:44.319 So a lot of my clols isn't fitting anyway. So 0:11:44.360 --> 0:11:46.000 there was a lot of stuff that I loved. But 0:11:46.080 --> 0:11:50.240 I'm like, you know what, it's all about paying it forward. 0:11:51.080 --> 0:11:53.760 I'm not just gonna take stuff out of my closet 0:11:53.880 --> 0:11:55.680 and then just throw it away. No, no, no, you 0:11:55.800 --> 0:11:57.840 have to give it away. You have to even sell 0:11:57.880 --> 0:12:00.480 some pieces. And I sold some pieces and I gave 0:12:00.520 --> 0:12:02.400 a lot of it away to my friends, and then 0:12:02.600 --> 0:12:05.200 a lot of it I gave to um Goodwill and 0:12:05.240 --> 0:12:06.960 they sell it and stuff. But whatever, It's like, I'm 0:12:06.960 --> 0:12:10.120 not it's not about the money. It's about really cleaning 0:12:10.160 --> 0:12:12.800 out and removing the old to bring in the new. 0:12:13.280 --> 0:12:15.880 So if you have any broken plate to you, guys, 0:12:15.880 --> 0:12:17.120 you still you're still in time for all of this. 0:12:17.160 --> 0:12:19.559 By the way, so if you have any broken plates 0:12:19.559 --> 0:12:22.880 in your house, take them out. Anything that's I don't know, 0:12:23.600 --> 0:12:26.680 broken art piece that broken, you glued it back together. 0:12:26.920 --> 0:12:28.959 I feel like it's a very good I believe a 0:12:28.960 --> 0:12:30.880 lot in Functual as we have an episode on it, 0:12:30.960 --> 0:12:32.920 you guys on Functional A, So go back to season 0:12:32.960 --> 0:12:35.400 one on Chickens and Chill and check it out. But 0:12:35.520 --> 0:12:39.839 it's all about not having that brokenness in your home. 0:12:40.559 --> 0:12:42.400 Even if you love it, it's just thank you you 0:12:42.520 --> 0:12:45.120 throw it in the trash to remove that old energy 0:12:45.160 --> 0:12:47.679 to bring in new energy. But yeah, that's one of 0:12:47.679 --> 0:12:51.280 the main things. Cleaning on my closet, removing anything that's broken. Oh, 0:12:51.360 --> 0:12:54.160 removing spider webs from the inside on the outside of 0:12:54.200 --> 0:12:57.480 your house. That's negative energy or energy gets stuck to that, 0:12:57.559 --> 0:12:59.640 it becomes stagnant energy. So what you want to do 0:12:59.679 --> 0:13:03.760 is clean the ceilings, remove you know, um the web's 0:13:03.960 --> 0:13:06.160 or you know, I mean, it happens to all of us. 0:13:06.200 --> 0:13:08.120 We have it everywhere. So it's good to just especially 0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:13.559 your doorway, clean it. Saga Sie like you knowas d 0:13:13.640 --> 0:13:19.080 s Okayias. You know, it's good to just sweep. There's 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:21.840 a lot just behind it, So clean your house. That's 0:13:21.880 --> 0:13:25.240 one thing. Anyways to talk about my resolutions, So my 0:13:25.320 --> 0:13:29.920 resolutions for three this is one that I've been working 0:13:29.960 --> 0:13:32.440 on for like a long time. You guys, I'm gonna 0:13:32.440 --> 0:13:35.800 be honest with you straight up here being on time. 0:13:36.400 --> 0:13:38.640 I think this has been my resolution for the past 0:13:38.720 --> 0:13:40.800 I don't know, five years. It's something that I'm not 0:13:40.880 --> 0:13:44.960 proud of. The crazy thing is. I always want to 0:13:45.000 --> 0:13:47.640 be on time. I like to respect people's time. I 0:13:47.679 --> 0:13:52.960 don't like people waiting on me, and lately, especially the 0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:56.199 past few shows and stuff like that that I had for, 0:13:58.559 --> 0:14:01.560 we were always running late. So I just want to 0:14:01.600 --> 0:14:05.520 get this energy flowing of just really being a little 0:14:05.520 --> 0:14:11.280 bit more time aware. Not only myself, but I had 0:14:11.320 --> 0:14:14.200 that conversation with my team of like, hey, guys, we 0:14:14.240 --> 0:14:17.960 really need to work on removing stress from each other. 0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:21.640 So let's be on time. Let's be a little bit quicker. 0:14:21.720 --> 0:14:25.160 You know, time is money, and a lot of the times, 0:14:25.160 --> 0:14:26.800 you guys, I'm not even making an excuse, but a 0:14:26.840 --> 0:14:29.000 lot of the times it's not because I want to 0:14:29.000 --> 0:14:32.240 be late. Something happens. I don't know. It's not even 0:14:32.280 --> 0:14:35.320 on me. Even when I'm running on time. It's crazy 0:14:35.360 --> 0:14:37.320 because then I get to the place on time, and 0:14:37.360 --> 0:14:40.480 then they're running late, so that I'm waiting anyway. So 0:14:40.520 --> 0:14:43.360 it's the craziest thing. So I really want to work 0:14:43.400 --> 0:14:47.640 on that this year and really make it a priority 0:14:47.720 --> 0:14:50.880 to be on time and make sure that people aren't 0:14:50.880 --> 0:14:53.440 waiting on me. I feel like it's in my DNA 0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:56.600 because I was two weeks late, you guys, My mom 0:14:56.640 --> 0:14:59.600 had to be induced because I just didn't want to 0:14:59.600 --> 0:15:02.800 come out of her tell me. So I'm really trying 0:15:02.840 --> 0:15:05.600 to just reverse that this year. That's one of my resolutions. 0:15:05.640 --> 0:15:08.120 I think that's number one. I want to work out 0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:11.960 a lot more this year because last year, thank goodness, 0:15:12.000 --> 0:15:15.000 we were very, very busy. So this year, I want 0:15:15.040 --> 0:15:17.240 to make it a priority to wake up earlier. I'm 0:15:17.240 --> 0:15:20.080 going to try to join the five am club, so 0:15:20.200 --> 0:15:23.520 wish me luck on that. It's been working out a 0:15:23.560 --> 0:15:26.560 little bit more like six o'clock, So I want to 0:15:26.600 --> 0:15:28.320 go back to waking up at five in the morning 0:15:28.400 --> 0:15:32.000 to have just more time. They say that successful people 0:15:32.360 --> 0:15:34.400 wake up at five because they just have more time. 0:15:34.480 --> 0:15:36.080 So that's one thing I want to work on, and 0:15:36.120 --> 0:15:38.720 I want to make it an even bigger priority to 0:15:38.800 --> 0:15:40.680 work out and make sure that's one of the main 0:15:40.720 --> 0:15:43.640 things that I do because prayer, meditation, I got down, 0:15:43.720 --> 0:15:46.360 that's like important to me. But then the next thing 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:48.320 is I really want to work out because it just 0:15:48.360 --> 0:15:53.000 makes me feel better, So that's another one. Um, I 0:15:53.120 --> 0:15:58.400 really want to take more of my vocal classes this year, 0:15:59.040 --> 0:16:03.040 not because I me three time Grammy nominee and two 0:16:03.080 --> 0:16:06.000 time Grammy winning artists, does it mean that I know everything. 0:16:06.840 --> 0:16:10.440 I want to learn more about my craft. I want 0:16:10.520 --> 0:16:14.280 to better myself in every single way. I've already started 0:16:14.360 --> 0:16:18.120 with my vocal coaching this year, so I want to 0:16:18.160 --> 0:16:20.160 continue that. I want to do it at least twice 0:16:20.160 --> 0:16:23.120 a month, like really make it a priority so that 0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:27.960 I can kill this tour. I'm going to Mexico, so 0:16:28.040 --> 0:16:33.800 that's like huge for me, and I really get and 0:16:33.800 --> 0:16:35.680 and you know, so I really need to be on 0:16:35.720 --> 0:16:38.480 my A game. So that's another one of my resolutions. 0:16:38.680 --> 0:16:43.280 And one thing on a more personal level is just 0:16:43.800 --> 0:16:47.400 not putting up with people's ship this year. I think 0:16:47.400 --> 0:16:52.000 I started doing that already, but I want to continue 0:16:52.000 --> 0:16:56.200 with that. I want to respectfully and gracefully, be assertive 0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:59.320 and tell people to funk off if they're not being 0:16:59.400 --> 0:17:04.520 nice to me gracefully, okay, and respectfully, and just remove 0:17:04.680 --> 0:17:08.040 myself from any situation and any type of relationship that 0:17:08.119 --> 0:17:11.399 is not serving my higher good. I am done with 0:17:11.480 --> 0:17:16.840 putting up with Oh I love them, or they have 0:17:16.920 --> 0:17:19.440 great qualities, yes, we all have great qualities, but if 0:17:19.600 --> 0:17:22.600 you are not serving my highest good and making me 0:17:22.680 --> 0:17:25.840 a better person, like and you are bringing me down 0:17:26.080 --> 0:17:28.760 or even people that talk crap about me. I just 0:17:28.920 --> 0:17:30.960 want to cut people off. I don't want that energy 0:17:31.000 --> 0:17:33.680 around me, even if it's someone super important in the industry, 0:17:33.720 --> 0:17:36.760 you guys, Like, I don't want to do that, Like 0:17:36.800 --> 0:17:38.760 I just I don't want to deal with it anymore. 0:17:38.760 --> 0:17:40.280 Like I don't think I have to. I don't think 0:17:40.359 --> 0:17:42.399 we need to. I think for a long time I 0:17:42.400 --> 0:17:45.000 wanted to be politically correct in the industry and like 0:17:45.080 --> 0:17:47.480 be like okay, well cool, like this is just the 0:17:47.480 --> 0:17:49.160 way it is. This is the way the cookie crumbles. 0:17:49.200 --> 0:17:51.040 And sometimes they talk crap about you, and then sometimes 0:17:51.040 --> 0:17:52.560 they're nice to you, and it's like, no, if you're 0:17:52.600 --> 0:17:54.040 mean to me and you said something mean to me 0:17:54.520 --> 0:17:57.080 or about me, even behind my back, which usually it 0:17:57.160 --> 0:17:59.760 is behind my back, they just say things. I want 0:17:59.760 --> 0:18:01.080 to be about to call him on their ship, like 0:18:01.119 --> 0:18:02.800 I want to be like, uh, you know what, you 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:04.800 weren't nice to me, and until you apologize, I'm not 0:18:04.800 --> 0:18:06.959 giving you an interview. Like that's one thing that's one 0:18:07.000 --> 0:18:09.480 of my resolutions for this year, you guys, because it's 0:18:09.520 --> 0:18:13.240 just not fair, you know. And after having an amazing 0:18:13.320 --> 0:18:18.000 interview last year with Ramos, and he's such a well 0:18:18.080 --> 0:18:23.840 respected journalists such an intelligent man, and how he saw me, 0:18:23.880 --> 0:18:26.760 I think in a different light after our interview together 0:18:27.560 --> 0:18:29.840 that it's just I'm not going to be putting up 0:18:29.840 --> 0:18:32.120 with people's crap, you know what I mean. Like I 0:18:32.160 --> 0:18:34.359 was able to convince a man like him, and not 0:18:34.400 --> 0:18:37.159 even convince him. I was just being myself, and I 0:18:37.240 --> 0:18:39.280 think he didn't know enough about me. And when they 0:18:39.280 --> 0:18:41.560 did their research for the interview, like he told me 0:18:41.600 --> 0:18:45.520 straight up, like Chicky's I really thought something different about you. 0:18:45.680 --> 0:18:48.480 I didn't think you were this person. I read your 0:18:48.520 --> 0:18:52.680 books and I am just he he was just honestly, 0:18:52.720 --> 0:18:55.399 like he's like, wow, he loved me, you guys, and 0:18:55.440 --> 0:18:58.439 it's freaking awesome. And after that, I'm like, wait, like 0:18:59.119 --> 0:19:01.080 it's not that I think I'm better or like, but no, 0:19:01.200 --> 0:19:03.639 we gotta level up. We gotta level up, you guys. 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.119 We can't be going backwards. I'm not gonna be like 0:19:06.160 --> 0:19:08.399 wasting my time with people that be talking crap. And 0:19:08.400 --> 0:19:10.720 I want to be able to tell them, hey, that's 0:19:10.720 --> 0:19:12.240 not cool, you know what I mean. I'm not gonna 0:19:12.280 --> 0:19:13.920 go in there freaking like f you enough. You know 0:19:14.000 --> 0:19:16.879 none of that. Well maybe I don't know that if 0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.399 they make me, but but I just I don't know. 0:19:19.640 --> 0:19:22.199 I'm on that trip now where it's like you're not 0:19:22.280 --> 0:19:25.159 nice to me. There's no reason why I have to 0:19:25.200 --> 0:19:27.240 give you my time. So anyways, that's just on a 0:19:27.280 --> 0:19:28.960 personal note. But you know we're here on chickens and 0:19:29.000 --> 0:19:30.719 chill and I talked to you guys about everything. So 0:19:31.040 --> 0:19:34.640 those are my revolutions. That's my take on cleaning your house, 0:19:34.680 --> 0:19:37.320 you guys, you're still in time. You can always do that. 0:19:37.440 --> 0:19:40.840 Clean up the energy like again, paying it forward, giving 0:19:40.880 --> 0:19:44.120 away clothes you guys, and shoes to like necessarity that 0:19:44.200 --> 0:19:46.919 like all that is such good energy to remove the 0:19:46.960 --> 0:19:50.680 old and in the new, like one man's trash is 0:19:50.680 --> 0:19:53.200 another man's treasure. She'll keep that in mind. And then 0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:56.080 the vision board, you guys. So hopefully my little tips 0:19:56.240 --> 0:19:57.720 and the things that I do that have worked for 0:19:57.760 --> 0:20:07.440 me worked for you. Before we wrap up, I could 0:20:07.480 --> 0:20:10.960 just kind of vaguely tell you guys, because I have 0:20:11.000 --> 0:20:13.560
