Welcome 0:00:06.840 --> 0:00:09.719 everyone to this edition of Morning Run. 0:00:09.760 --> 0:00:11.960 It's Sunday, May. 0:00:12.160 --> 0:00:14.239 No, it's not May, and you just told me it's 0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:16.040 June first, and I'm gonna have to get used to that. 0:00:16.160 --> 0:00:19.680 Every month, I have to rethink about which month it is. 0:00:19.720 --> 0:00:21.440 But two seconds ago. 0:00:21.400 --> 0:00:24.880 The very last thing I said to her before we 0:00:24.920 --> 0:00:27.520 started recording, it's June first. You know, it's it's June first, 0:00:27.880 --> 0:00:28.639 the very. 0:00:28.520 --> 0:00:32.160 Last, and then I said, welcome, it's me. It's June, 0:00:32.360 --> 0:00:36.400 June first, a new month. So welcome to this episode 0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:37.760 of Amy and TJ. 0:00:38.159 --> 0:00:40.480 Thank you for that literal demonstration of how you don't 0:00:40.479 --> 0:00:41.680 listen to anything I say. 0:00:43.760 --> 0:00:46.120 Oh my goodness. All right, well, you know, and we 0:00:46.280 --> 0:00:49.600 talk about this. We love actually our quote of the day. 0:00:50.040 --> 0:00:52.519 Every day we give we end our Morning Runs with 0:00:52.640 --> 0:00:55.280 something to inspire you or to get you thinking. 0:00:55.680 --> 0:00:56.560 And Sundays are. 0:00:56.480 --> 0:00:58.520 Such a big day for folks to reflect and to 0:00:58.560 --> 0:01:00.520 be inspired, whether you go to church, sure, you take 0:01:00.560 --> 0:01:02.080 a hike, or whatever it is. So we thought it 0:01:02.080 --> 0:01:04.720 would be a perfect time to go through our quotes 0:01:04.760 --> 0:01:06.920 of the day, and we have a bonus quote for 0:01:06.959 --> 0:01:10.000 you at the end of this podcast, but we'll begin 0:01:10.120 --> 0:01:13.880 with how we started our week with the great King 0:01:15.000 --> 0:01:17.480 Elvis Presley. We had just actually were still in Memphis 0:01:18.280 --> 0:01:21.680 on Monday, so we decided to quote Elvis Presley. 0:01:21.760 --> 0:01:23.520 I love this quote of his. 0:01:24.080 --> 0:01:27.759 You only pass through this life once. You don't come 0:01:27.800 --> 0:01:29.280 back for an encore. 0:01:30.160 --> 0:01:32.360 Deah, take advantage. Don't we all think we got another chance? 0:01:32.360 --> 0:01:34.559 We had a little more time, We have another opportunity. 0:01:34.560 --> 0:01:37.479 We know life is no do we know life is short? 0:01:37.560 --> 0:01:40.640 We just say that, we say that, we don't live it. 0:01:40.720 --> 0:01:43.600 We say we'll do it tomorrow. We'll do that next month, 0:01:43.680 --> 0:01:47.040 We'll do that next year, we'll plan that vacation when 0:01:47.040 --> 0:01:50.920 we have more time or more money. And it's always 0:01:50.960 --> 0:01:54.000 a reminder just sometimes you need that little bit of 0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:57.960 wisdom from somebody who is just It's not anything we 0:01:58.000 --> 0:02:00.680 don't already know, but just especially when you have people 0:02:00.720 --> 0:02:03.040 who you respect to you admire, you love, it's cool 0:02:03.040 --> 0:02:05.280 to hear them remind us all that we need to 0:02:05.280 --> 0:02:08.240 take advantage of the time we have right now. 0:02:08.440 --> 0:02:11.120 And reminder from the guy who said it. He was 0:02:11.200 --> 0:02:14.040 famously known for not giving on cores. Elvis has left 0:02:14.080 --> 0:02:16.040 the building. Y'all can stand here and clap all you want, 0:02:16.080 --> 0:02:18.960 but the brother's gone. So this came from Elvis Presley, Yes, 0:02:19.040 --> 0:02:23.240 where we were on Monday, his hometown of Memphis, hanging 0:02:23.240 --> 0:02:23.639 out there. 0:02:24.480 --> 0:02:27.680 And he lived a short life, wow, forty two. And 0:02:27.760 --> 0:02:29.799 so it's interesting, you know he's someone who said that, 0:02:29.880 --> 0:02:32.519 and you know he didn't know. No one knows when 0:02:32.520 --> 0:02:35.200 our time comes. But it's a reminder he had a 0:02:35.720 --> 0:02:38.280 very incredible. 0:02:37.680 --> 0:02:38.919 But short life. 0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.560 And so it's that in and of itself, is a 0:02:41.600 --> 0:02:43.200 reminder from some island. 0:02:43.720 --> 0:02:45.320 I did not think about the guy who actually said 0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:47.400 had lived a very short life. You don't get an encore. 0:02:48.000 --> 0:02:48.200 Yeah. 0:02:48.320 --> 0:02:50.239 August sixteenth, nineteen seventy seven. 0:02:51.280 --> 0:02:53.680 He passed away three days before you were born. 0:02:53.800 --> 0:02:55.680 And that was my due date. My mom's due date 0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:58.440 that the doctor gave her was August sixteenth, nineteen seventy seven. 0:02:58.480 --> 0:03:00.520 I will never forget that because I was born then 0:03:00.600 --> 0:03:03.440 three days later. So I always know the anniversary of 0:03:03.480 --> 0:03:05.680 his death. What year are we on, because that is 0:03:05.720 --> 0:03:09.280 the year that I will be turning whatever age. So 0:03:09.760 --> 0:03:12.639 this is the forty eighth year since his passing. That's 0:03:12.680 --> 0:03:14.360 kind of remarkable and that's crazy. But yes, take there 0:03:14.360 --> 0:03:16.480 from Melvis, folks, you only pass through this life once 0:03:16.880 --> 0:03:19.840 you don't come back for an encore, and then Tuesday 0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.120 robes you track one down from a favorite artist of mine. 0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:24.839 But of course I had no idea about this quarter. 0:03:24.880 --> 0:03:25.720 For yeah, I didn't. 0:03:25.720 --> 0:03:28.960 You know, it makes sense because so many musicians are lyricists, 0:03:28.960 --> 0:03:32.520 their singers and their songwriters and Erica Badu, so of 0:03:32.560 --> 0:03:35.000 course it's not a big stretch to think that they 0:03:35.040 --> 0:03:37.600 would have inspirational things to say. But I hadn't heard 0:03:37.640 --> 0:03:40.840 this before either. This is a good one. In the morning. 0:03:41.280 --> 0:03:45.400 Instead of saying to yourself, I gotta wake up, say 0:03:45.800 --> 0:03:47.440 I get to wake up. 0:03:47.760 --> 0:03:49.560 This is exactly what. 0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:52.600 I try to remind myself when my alarm clock goes 0:03:52.640 --> 0:03:55.360 off at three a m. Monday through Friday. But the 0:03:55.360 --> 0:03:58.200 truth is, it is a privilege to wake up. It 0:03:58.280 --> 0:04:01.680 is if nothing else goes that day, at least you 0:04:01.880 --> 0:04:05.280 had the opportunity to be there and be present for it, 0:04:05.320 --> 0:04:08.680 to learn something, to grow, to experience things. And I 0:04:08.760 --> 0:04:11.120 just think it's a reminder that we can be grateful, 0:04:11.480 --> 0:04:14.200 if for nothing else, for the fact that we woke up. 0:04:14.320 --> 0:04:16.839 Isn't that the first thing that goes right for you 0:04:16.920 --> 0:04:20.479 every day? Yes, the fact that you're awake. Yes, Wow, 0:04:20.960 --> 0:04:24.480 I got another day. That literally is your first blessing 0:04:24.600 --> 0:04:27.400 of every single day, the fact you open your eyes 0:04:27.480 --> 0:04:30.480 and you get to live it. Look people going through 0:04:30.520 --> 0:04:33.240 all kinds of hell and hard times and it might 0:04:33.279 --> 0:04:35.520 be hell for you today and not looking forward to something. 0:04:35.760 --> 0:04:38.280 But geez, isn't that a win that you woke up? 0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:42.600 Yeah? Any And isn't so much of life about our attitude. 0:04:42.640 --> 0:04:45.960 It's not what happens, it's not what's good or bad. 0:04:46.040 --> 0:04:47.240 It's how we. 0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:49.280 View it. 0:04:49.440 --> 0:04:51.839 And if you can view things through a positive lens, 0:04:51.880 --> 0:04:54.279 it's a game changer. And I'm someone who I really 0:04:54.360 --> 0:04:56.320 think this is true. If you start off the day 0:04:56.400 --> 0:04:59.960 like that, with that positive attitude, it will change how 0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:02.360 the rest of your day will go. What you think 0:05:02.480 --> 0:05:04.960 is what will be. I really believe that. So I 0:05:05.000 --> 0:05:07.360 love what eric Abadou said. We'll give it to you 0:05:07.400 --> 0:05:09.000 one more time in the morning. 0:05:09.200 --> 0:05:12.200 Instead of saying to yourself, I got to wake up, 0:05:12.640 --> 0:05:15.760 say I get to wake up. Thank you for that, 0:05:16.040 --> 0:05:20.919 miss Erica back dude On Wednesday. Another from this is 0:05:20.920 --> 0:05:23.960 from a self help I say self help author. He 0:05:24.160 --> 0:05:29.039 is probably considered maybe even on some people's Mount Rushmore. 0:05:28.600 --> 0:05:32.120 Of self help absolutely Wayne Dyer. If you don't know 0:05:32.160 --> 0:05:34.480 who he is, I urge you to look him up 0:05:34.520 --> 0:05:38.200 because you don't have to agree with everything he says, 0:05:39.000 --> 0:05:42.560 but what he has to say about how to live 0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:46.400 your life better and how to change your attitude about life, 0:05:46.560 --> 0:05:50.200 it's inspirational. I have not read anything by this man 0:05:50.240 --> 0:05:53.720 that I didn't love, but this particular quote he gave 0:05:54.080 --> 0:05:58.040 really really spoke to us. When you judge another, you 0:05:58.120 --> 0:06:01.800 do not define them, You define yourself. 0:06:03.080 --> 0:06:03.799 That is powerful. 0:06:03.920 --> 0:06:07.159 Hey, judgment, that judgment sucked. 0:06:07.160 --> 0:06:09.640 We got We all do it. We all do it. 0:06:10.279 --> 0:06:12.680 You're looking out and people talk about it. It's a 0:06:12.720 --> 0:06:16.159 matter of projecting, right, you're doing that. You're projecting because 0:06:16.200 --> 0:06:17.520 you don't have to deal with the pain that you're 0:06:17.520 --> 0:06:20.680 dealing with inside. And that's why people do that. But 0:06:21.839 --> 0:06:24.560 if we could just stop, we just take a beat. 0:06:24.800 --> 0:06:28.320 It's training, but to stop in that moment and stop 0:06:28.400 --> 0:06:32.080 judging someone, to listen to someone, to understand somebody else's circumstances. Look, 0:06:32.120 --> 0:06:33.640 it took me a long time to get to that 0:06:33.680 --> 0:06:36.560 point too. You hear me. Now, Sometimes get people grace 0:06:36.640 --> 0:06:38.480 and mercy, like do what's wrong with you? 0:06:38.480 --> 0:06:38.760 You do? 0:06:38.839 --> 0:06:41.440 Like I give everybody I'm listening, let me hear the 0:06:41.440 --> 0:06:43.960 other side. Well, maybe they this and maybe this happened. 0:06:44.120 --> 0:06:48.080 It takes training, but man, it is it's a better 0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:48.599 way to live. 0:06:48.720 --> 0:06:52.480 You're a defense lawyer's dream juror. I would say that, Oh, 0:06:52.600 --> 0:06:54.560 you don't want me on a jury, Well you do 0:06:54.600 --> 0:06:56.040 if you're the defendant. 0:06:55.839 --> 0:06:58.800 If you're defend Oh whoever it is, you know what, 0:06:59.480 --> 0:07:00.599 they were having a rough day. 0:07:01.320 --> 0:07:02.640 I'm gonna give them some grace. 0:07:02.760 --> 0:07:02.960 You know. 0:07:02.960 --> 0:07:04.479 I'm gonna take a beat. And you know I would 0:07:04.520 --> 0:07:06.640 be in that jury room just chilling. Y'all yell at me. 0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.320 All y'all want you hang a jury and have zero 0:07:09.520 --> 0:07:10.920 you sleep really well that night. 0:07:11.000 --> 0:07:14.720 I really do believe that. I really do believe that. 0:07:15.440 --> 0:07:16.080 But it's true. 0:07:16.080 --> 0:07:19.400 When you start projecting your pain or something you don't 0:07:19.400 --> 0:07:22.160 want to deal with about yourself, and you start making 0:07:22.160 --> 0:07:24.800 fun of other people or judging other people, you are 0:07:24.880 --> 0:07:28.400 losing a bit of your humanity. Because what makes us 0:07:28.480 --> 0:07:31.400 feel whole and good and happy and safe is to 0:07:31.560 --> 0:07:33.720 understand that we're all one. 0:07:34.040 --> 0:07:36.600 We're all a part of each other. We're not separate. 0:07:37.000 --> 0:07:40.360 We're all human beings looking and searching for the same thing. 0:07:40.400 --> 0:07:42.760 And that's belonging and love. And so when we do 0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:45.120 that and we say things about other people or we 0:07:45.200 --> 0:07:48.280 judge other people to make ourselves feel better about what 0:07:48.480 --> 0:07:54.000 we're dealing with, it it's taking something away from us. 0:07:54.320 --> 0:07:56.880 It's not taking away anything from that other person. You're 0:07:56.920 --> 0:08:02.280 harming yourself by doing that. You're lowering yourself for people 0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:04.480 say that's beneath you, and that's truly what it is, 0:08:04.520 --> 0:08:06.600 and I think it's. Look, this is a human experience 0:08:06.640 --> 0:08:08.680 because our egos take over when we're not aware. 0:08:09.040 --> 0:08:10.040 We just want to make. 0:08:10.040 --> 0:08:12.800 Ourselves feel better, and we do that oftentimes by making 0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:15.560 other people look bad. But the truth is we're taking 0:08:15.640 --> 0:08:19.200 away something vital to making us all be better humans. 0:08:19.240 --> 0:08:22.000 And it's just a reminder that when you start to 0:08:22.000 --> 0:08:24.600 go there, your brain starts to go there, your mouth. 0:08:24.360 --> 0:08:26.120 Starts to go there. Catch yourself. 0:08:26.160 --> 0:08:28.480 It's okay, we all do it, but catch yourself and 0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.160 stop yourself and think why am I saying this? Why 0:08:31.160 --> 0:08:33.120 do I need to think this or say this? 0:08:33.440 --> 0:08:36.439 Go read the Drum Major Instinct by Martin Luther King 0:08:37.200 --> 0:08:38.920 if you get a chance. I'm only saying that now 0:08:38.920 --> 0:08:40.960 it wasn't the plan. You just said something that he 0:08:41.080 --> 0:08:43.520 hits on and it relates to everybody. You said. The 0:08:43.559 --> 0:08:45.760 only way some people try to make themselves look better 0:08:45.840 --> 0:08:48.480 is to by tearing, by tearing somebody else down. The 0:08:48.480 --> 0:08:50.960 whole idea of a drum major in a band is 0:08:50.960 --> 0:08:53.520 what out front? The one that wants to be seen? 0:08:54.280 --> 0:08:56.240 He said. We all have that in us. We all 0:08:56.280 --> 0:08:58.600 want that our ego, our pride. But how about this, 0:08:58.640 --> 0:09:01.760 What if you want it to be the right hand 0:09:02.280 --> 0:09:03.960 or what if you wanted to be out front and 0:09:03.960 --> 0:09:07.120 be seen because of good works? What if you wanted 0:09:07.160 --> 0:09:09.320 to be out front. It's okay to want the attention, 0:09:09.400 --> 0:09:11.800 but what do you want it for? Is the question 0:09:11.840 --> 0:09:13.880 you have to ask. There's plenty of folks who are 0:09:13.920 --> 0:09:15.840 doing great things out there and getting all kinds of 0:09:15.840 --> 0:09:18.760 attention for the good works they're doing. Be that person. 0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:22.240 So Wayne Dyer take this with you, folks. He said, 0:09:22.240 --> 0:09:26.319 when you judge another, you don't define them, You define yourself. 0:09:26.360 --> 0:09:29.040 That was our Wednesday quote. Then we moved on to 0:09:29.240 --> 0:09:31.520 Thursday four, I think, which was one of my favorite 0:09:31.760 --> 0:09:34.560 robes from our time. A Good Morning America. 0:09:34.720 --> 0:09:37.040 Yes, this was from the file you kept. This was 0:09:37.120 --> 0:09:39.800 one of the printed out quotes you would put on 0:09:39.840 --> 0:09:43.440 your dressing room door every Monday, so we would all 0:09:43.520 --> 0:09:45.800 have some words of wisdom to be inspired by for 0:09:45.840 --> 0:09:46.280 the week. 0:09:46.679 --> 0:09:48.920 This was Thursday's quote of the day. 0:09:49.440 --> 0:09:53.920 Don't confuse movement with progress. Just because you're doing a 0:09:53.920 --> 0:09:58.160 lot more doesn't mean you're getting a lot more done. 0:09:58.640 --> 0:10:01.040 This you think from your pas per usual. 0:10:01.200 --> 0:10:04.000 I think so, I think so. But it was just 0:10:04.040 --> 0:10:07.319 so applicable to I mean news at the time, and 0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:10.400 newsrooms that we've all worked in. There were sometimes people 0:10:10.880 --> 0:10:14.200 we've had bosses that didn't like it if you didn't 0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:18.120 stay late or look like like this appearance of doing 0:10:18.240 --> 0:10:22.080 all this stuff to look busy, smoking mirrors. That's all 0:10:22.120 --> 0:10:24.040 it is. You're not getting any more done. You're just 0:10:24.040 --> 0:10:25.720 doing a lot of things poorly sometimes. 0:10:25.760 --> 0:10:27.280 Do you know what That's just reminded me of, Babe, 0:10:27.280 --> 0:10:30.000 Because you were talking about the news business and how 0:10:30.040 --> 0:10:32.959 this applied to that. We like to watch local news 0:10:33.000 --> 0:10:35.120 everywhere we go when we travel to different cities, and 0:10:35.160 --> 0:10:38.040 we were struck and have been struck by local news 0:10:38.040 --> 0:10:41.560 departments because we have been local news reporters who you 0:10:41.600 --> 0:10:44.720 can tell their news director or someone told them move 0:10:44.760 --> 0:10:45.520 while you're talking. 0:10:45.559 --> 0:10:48.000 You need movement. You've got to get people's attention. 0:10:48.120 --> 0:10:50.679 So there's no reason why this reporter should be walking 0:10:50.880 --> 0:10:53.560 or moving, but just to move to look like you're 0:10:53.920 --> 0:10:58.079 doing something important or doing something big, and it's it 0:10:58.120 --> 0:11:01.320 looks ridiculous, by the way, So that actually, like we 0:11:01.400 --> 0:11:03.040 do it all the time, whether it's in front of 0:11:03.040 --> 0:11:05.400 a camera or in front of other people, trying. 0:11:05.200 --> 0:11:06.760 To show that we're doing something. 0:11:06.840 --> 0:11:09.199 But actually, when you're trying to prove something, you might 0:11:09.240 --> 0:11:11.560 not actually be focused on what you should be because 0:11:11.720 --> 0:11:12.720 it's about the optics. 0:11:12.760 --> 0:11:13.480 It's not even. 0:11:13.360 --> 0:11:16.680 About what the intention is or what you're trying to achieve. 0:11:27.679 --> 0:11:29.600 We could say a whole lot more because we spent 0:11:29.720 --> 0:11:33.920 so much time watching local news recently. Every single live shot, 0:11:33.960 --> 0:11:37.839 the reporter stands there and after two seconds, hell, they 0:11:37.920 --> 0:11:40.719 just step away. They do the exact same move we 0:11:40.720 --> 0:11:42.679 were in local news. There was a whole stretch what 0:11:42.800 --> 0:11:44.840 they say the news director, I want you to move, 0:11:44.960 --> 0:11:46.920 but we're seeing it, and I didn't think about it. 0:11:46.960 --> 0:11:51.200 You're so right. That's a very good visual example of 0:11:51.320 --> 0:11:54.880 people in local news trying to look like and they 0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:55.679 have no information. 0:11:55.720 --> 0:11:58.240 Again, and they're telling you we have no information. The 0:11:58.240 --> 0:12:00.319 PIO officer has not told us anything, and yet we 0:12:00.360 --> 0:12:02.520 don't even know if a woman or a man's been killed. Yeah, 0:12:03.320 --> 0:12:07.120 but they're moving, so oh they must know we're be 0:12:07.160 --> 0:12:09.040 doing something because they're moving right now. 0:12:09.080 --> 0:12:09.160 Oh. 0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:12.320 I just thought that was like a visual example of 0:12:12.400 --> 0:12:13.440 what this quote means. 0:12:13.480 --> 0:12:14.960 I didn't know we were going to go there, but yes, 0:12:15.280 --> 0:12:17.280 or boy, that's exactly right. But it was. That's why 0:12:17.320 --> 0:12:19.160 I loved it in the newsroom and putting it up 0:12:19.640 --> 0:12:23.400 to everybody. Just because you don't have to work sixteen 0:12:23.440 --> 0:12:26.680 hour days to prove that you're working hard. We can 0:12:26.720 --> 0:12:29.800 work seven hour days and crush it on the things 0:12:29.840 --> 0:12:32.000 we're doing. I hate this idea that you got to 0:12:32.000 --> 0:12:33.960 be busy, you gotta be moving, you gotta work longer. 0:12:34.040 --> 0:12:36.320 Look at me, I haven't taken a day off in 0:12:36.960 --> 0:12:41.320 six weeks or or whatever it is. Really, that's not impressive. 0:12:41.360 --> 0:12:42.080 That used to be us. 0:12:42.160 --> 0:12:43.000 That just reminded me. 0:12:43.280 --> 0:12:47.680 I literally in my Washington DC newsroom would brag to 0:12:47.800 --> 0:12:52.400 my fellow coworkers that I left fifteen vacation days on 0:12:52.440 --> 0:12:55.800 the table because I was working so hard. Why in 0:12:55.880 --> 0:12:58.720 God's name did I think that was something to brag about. 0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.600 I look like a fool, And I have to tell 0:13:01.600 --> 0:13:03.440 you that It's one of the big lessons I learned 0:13:03.840 --> 0:13:04.840 over the years. 0:13:05.559 --> 0:13:07.840 People, if you're listening, take all. 0:13:07.800 --> 0:13:08.880 Your vacation days. 0:13:09.080 --> 0:13:11.199 And some people might be laughing at me, like duh, 0:13:11.320 --> 0:13:12.640 But I do think there are a lot of you 0:13:12.679 --> 0:13:15.440 out there, and there are a lot of overachievers out 0:13:15.480 --> 0:13:19.000 there who actually take some sort of pride in not 0:13:19.080 --> 0:13:23.480 taking vacation days. This speaks to that completely. Don't confuse 0:13:23.600 --> 0:13:27.200 movement with progress. Just because you're doing a lot more 0:13:27.679 --> 0:13:30.360 doesn't mean you're getting a lot more done. 0:13:30.600 --> 0:13:33.120 Or in our Friday quote, again, this was one you 0:13:33.200 --> 0:13:35.720 plucked out. This was a great one. And again, folks 0:13:35.720 --> 0:13:37.840 that don't know, we've talked about this here as we 0:13:37.840 --> 0:13:43.200 put our morning run together every morning we have separate responsibilities. 0:13:43.360 --> 0:13:45.360 You handle the quotes of the day, so allventimes I 0:13:45.360 --> 0:13:47.520 don't see them until I see the rundown while we're 0:13:47.559 --> 0:13:49.480 in the middle of recording. And this was one that 0:13:49.520 --> 0:13:51.800 I saw that I loved, but it threw me off 0:13:51.800 --> 0:13:55.440 because I read it live as we were recording, and 0:13:55.920 --> 0:13:56.640 it spoke to me. 0:13:57.240 --> 0:14:00.360 Enjoy the little things for one day you may look 0:14:00.400 --> 0:14:04.120 back and realize they were the big things. That almost 0:14:04.160 --> 0:14:05.880 makes me want to cry because I think we're so 0:14:06.520 --> 0:14:10.560 focused on doing big things and making sure we have 0:14:10.600 --> 0:14:13.120 a huge accomplishment that that's the big lofty goal. But 0:14:13.200 --> 0:14:16.360 it's all the little things that we do along the 0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:19.480 way that actually really matter, and we forget that, we 0:14:19.600 --> 0:14:22.080 lose sight of that. We only have, you know, one 0:14:22.120 --> 0:14:23.960 big lofty goal, or we want to be known for 0:14:24.040 --> 0:14:27.080 one big thing, and actually it's all the little things 0:14:27.120 --> 0:14:28.880 you do that make up who you are and how 0:14:28.880 --> 0:14:31.040 you treat people and how you treat yourself. Oh. 0:14:31.240 --> 0:14:34.080 I'm thinking of so many scenarios where someone's come up 0:14:34.080 --> 0:14:36.160 to me and say, yeah, a few years ago, yeah 0:14:36.240 --> 0:14:37.720 you know who I was, but you were the kindest 0:14:37.720 --> 0:14:40.120 thing and you stopped and you talked to my kids and. 0:14:40.080 --> 0:14:41.920 That what right? 0:14:42.000 --> 0:14:44.080 I didn't remember that. But we always you just say 0:14:44.120 --> 0:14:45.880 everybody wants to do big things and want to change 0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:48.720 the world. And I always say, sometimes what you do 0:14:48.800 --> 0:14:52.080 can mean the world to one individual, and that's okay. 0:14:52.440 --> 0:14:54.240 It can be a thank you, it can be and 0:14:54.320 --> 0:14:56.080 I love you, that's a smile, it could be I'm 0:14:56.160 --> 0:14:58.640 checking in on you. All the little things that you 0:14:58.680 --> 0:15:02.000 don't even think about can have such a major impact 0:15:02.280 --> 0:15:04.400 on other people and on yourselves, and by the way. 0:15:04.440 --> 0:15:07.480 This came from a man named Robert Brault. And I 0:15:07.520 --> 0:15:10.600 say that because I've never heard of him before. But 0:15:10.760 --> 0:15:14.560 I went and looked. He's an author, and he has 0:15:14.840 --> 0:15:16.960 for someone I have never heard of, whose name I 0:15:17.000 --> 0:15:19.320 have never heard of my life, or even read for 0:15:19.360 --> 0:15:22.640 that matter, has so many incredible quotes. I went to 0:15:22.680 --> 0:15:26.560 go come up with a bonus quote today, and. 0:15:25.680 --> 0:15:27.880 Do we have something for Monday, for tomorrow already a 0:15:27.920 --> 0:15:30.360 quote of the day, because this one is so damn 0:15:30.400 --> 0:15:31.160 good it is. 0:15:31.200 --> 0:15:32.880 But I know we are. We have a plan for 0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:35.680 next week. Actually, we have a plan for next week. 0:15:36.320 --> 0:15:38.240 It's starting on Monday. I guess Sunday is this week. 0:15:38.280 --> 0:15:41.280 I always think Sunday is it's the start of the week. 0:15:41.280 --> 0:15:42.680 I'm sorry, I always get that wrong. 0:15:42.760 --> 0:15:44.920 Wait, some people do that. I've met some people who've 0:15:44.920 --> 0:15:46.400 done that. Yeah, I feel Sunday is the start of 0:15:46.440 --> 0:15:48.080 the week. Some people think Mondays, I do. 0:15:48.160 --> 0:15:50.000 I always think that Monday's the start of the week. 0:15:50.240 --> 0:15:54.400 But yes, so starting this week today, but on Monday, 0:15:54.680 --> 0:15:58.040 we're going to have a themed quote of the day 0:15:58.040 --> 0:16:01.360 from one person who also has multiple quotes, So I 0:16:01.360 --> 0:16:03.240 think we can use this one as the bonus, right, 0:16:03.360 --> 0:16:04.280 I just want to make sure. 0:16:04.080 --> 0:16:06.040 We weren't burning one, because this is a good one. 0:16:06.080 --> 0:16:07.560 It is a good one, but I'm telling you he 0:16:07.640 --> 0:16:09.240 is so many. I'm going to dip back into the 0:16:09.320 --> 0:16:13.000 Robert Bralt vault. I was a poet and didn't know 0:16:13.040 --> 0:16:15.720 it many times, and I'll bring it off. 0:16:17.360 --> 0:16:19.400 I wish, no, I wish we were recording this. I 0:16:19.760 --> 0:16:21.400 just wanted everybody to be able to share in the 0:16:21.400 --> 0:16:22.640 moment you just had with yourself. 0:16:22.680 --> 0:16:24.640 You went visually recording, yes. 0:16:24.960 --> 0:16:29.000 Vault Bralt, poet, No it you were, you were really 0:16:29.200 --> 0:16:32.760 really you were waiting for some help and being amused, 0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:33.920 and I wasn't going to give it to you, but 0:16:33.960 --> 0:16:35.600 you just went ahead and been amused by yourself. 0:16:35.680 --> 0:16:39.160 I can laugh at myself and with myself that one. 0:16:39.200 --> 0:16:41.400 I laughed with myself and at myself with the same Okay, 0:16:41.440 --> 0:16:42.560 there we go, Okay, all right. 0:16:42.440 --> 0:16:45.640 Here's the quote from Robert from his vault. From his vault. 0:16:46.320 --> 0:16:49.600 Sometimes we can't find the thing that will make us 0:16:49.640 --> 0:16:52.840 happy because we can't let go of the thing that 0:16:53.000 --> 0:16:55.000 was supposed to and let the. 0:16:55.040 --> 0:16:58.520 Church say, amen, dang, if you can take that is 0:16:58.600 --> 0:17:03.800 one that just some calls we have that don't need 0:17:03.880 --> 0:17:06.320 much explanation, we talk about them and where they came from. 0:17:06.720 --> 0:17:09.199 This is one that if you say this to yourself, 0:17:09.960 --> 0:17:13.360 maybe once before lunch, once after lunch, once at dinner, 0:17:13.440 --> 0:17:15.879 you'll go Holy hell, and you'll look back at your 0:17:15.920 --> 0:17:18.119 life and so many things. Often first thing I went 0:17:18.160 --> 0:17:20.719 to was relationships. Yep, same the first thing I went to, 0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:22.359 But there are plenty of other things. Second thing I 0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:26.240 went to was job. Yes, I Sometimes we can't find 0:17:26.240 --> 0:17:28.480 a thing that will make us happy because we can't 0:17:28.520 --> 0:17:30.600 let go of the thing that was supposed to what 0:17:30.760 --> 0:17:34.760 was supposed to make you happy. Robes five years ago, 0:17:34.880 --> 0:17:37.960 ten years ago, fifteen years ago, twenty years ago, and 0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:41.400 you look back and say, Wow, this is the actual 0:17:41.440 --> 0:17:43.199 thing I wanted to make me happy, and there was 0:17:43.240 --> 0:17:44.960 no way I could have it because I was holding 0:17:45.040 --> 0:17:48.199 on to that thing that I was hoping was going 0:17:48.240 --> 0:17:48.840 to make me happy. 0:17:48.840 --> 0:17:51.399 It's so hard to let go. It's so hard to 0:17:51.480 --> 0:17:55.520 let go and to recognize it. Sometimes that's the only 0:17:55.600 --> 0:17:59.159 way forward, is to leave something behind, to close that 0:17:59.240 --> 0:18:01.040 door and walk through a new one. But that is 0:18:01.080 --> 0:18:02.760 so one of the hardest things to do in life, 0:18:02.800 --> 0:18:06.000 because we all have expectations of what should be and 0:18:06.040 --> 0:18:08.720 when things don't go the way they should go in 0:18:08.840 --> 0:18:10.760 our minds. We hold on to it and try to 0:18:10.800 --> 0:18:13.320 control it and make it and manipulate it so that 0:18:13.359 --> 0:18:15.760
