This 36 00:01:32,319 --> 00:01:34,480 Speaker 5: is one of those things that I normally wouldn't ever 37 00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:37,559 Speaker 5: think of just being, you know, just hanging around here, living, 38 00:01:37,640 --> 00:01:38,880 Speaker 5: living here my whole life. 39 00:01:38,959 --> 00:01:40,639 Speaker 2: But I got to go last night. 40 00:01:40,520 --> 00:01:44,320 Speaker 5: And just see this beautiful view of all of the 41 00:01:44,360 --> 00:01:50,960 Speaker 5: city and beyond and man again, it bears reminding.

Hey, what's up with you, Froggy. 49 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:12,720 Speaker 6: You know, if there's something in your life that you're 50 00:02:12,760 --> 00:02:15,520 Speaker 6: putting off because you don't want to do it, because 51 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,520 Speaker 6: you think the task is going to be take too 52 00:02:17,560 --> 00:02:20,440 Speaker 6: long or too difficult, get it done. I had something 53 00:02:20,480 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 6: like that yesterday. I waited until the absolute last second 54 00:02:24,080 --> 00:02:25,799 Speaker 6: to do it. I had to go through a list 55 00:02:25,840 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 6: of nine I'm not exaggerating. It was over nine thousand 56 00:02:29,280 --> 00:02:31,400 Speaker 6: things I had to whittle down to four hundred and 57 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,079 Speaker 6: I badly got it done.

So whatever it is that you're putting off, 60 00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:42,320 Speaker 6: just get it done. Trust me, it's gonna be easier 61 00:02:42,360 --> 00:02:44,440 Speaker 6: than you think, and you're gonna feel such a sense 62 00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:45,880 Speaker 6: of accomplishment and pride when you. 63 00:02:45,840 --> 00:02:47,760 Speaker 2: Get it done.

But It did not take me 72 00:03:06,200 --> 00:03:08,160 Speaker 6: as long as I thought it would, and I did 73 00:03:08,280 --> 00:03:10,799 Speaker 6: get it done, and it felt amazing to send that off. 74 00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:14,040 Speaker 6: And I already got an email back that said, great job, 75 00:03:14,200 --> 00:03:14,960 Speaker 6: this looks perfect. 76 00:03:15,560 --> 00:03:18,760 Speaker 3: I'll look at that.
