Speaker 1: Flex and frooms. Happy you are we flex and frooms are?
Speaker 1: We want to say.
Speaker 2: Happy, Get near it, you little free get near it together.
Speaker 2: I guess what we're talking about. I know you want
Speaker 2: to hear it. New Year's Resolutions. Now. There are two
Speaker 2: types of people, those who are vehemently pro and those
Speaker 2: who are ob they against. Now. I've had very many
Speaker 2: times in my life where I've altered between the two.
Speaker 2: The good reason, I think that there is value in
Speaker 2: accepting responsibility for your life and deciding, in this moment,
Speaker 2: I'm going to try to do something different. I'm going
Speaker 2: to try to be someone different. I'm going to try
Speaker 2: and change my life to varying levels of success. You know,
Speaker 2: but I think it's it's the mentality that starts it
Speaker 2: off and the actions that eventually follow. If they want
Speaker 2: to through me, please say for the what do you
Speaker 2: call them?
Speaker 1: Affirmative?
Speaker 2: No? The jury?
Speaker 1: The jury?
Speaker 2: Please say for the jury? Are you for or against
Speaker 2: New Year's Resolutions in the traditional way?
Speaker 1: I am against In the traditional way. I think it's
Speaker 1: a way to put off what you really want to do.
Speaker 1: My approach is to set out your values and go
Speaker 1: from their start today, Start now, Start now.
Speaker 2: I understand that. I respect it because it is also true.
Speaker 2: We all high behind the timelines. We all know time
Speaker 2: isn't real. How many times we talked about this, babes,
Speaker 2: time isn't real because we're on the Gregorian calendar right
Speaker 2: it's twenty twenty two right now in Ethiopia, it's like
Speaker 2: twenty sixteen, twenty fifteen. How does that make sense? Who knows?
Speaker 2: My point? Is you picking an arbitrary time to do
Speaker 2: something is just that arbitrary?
Speaker 1: So exciting? Is it?
Speaker 2: All right? We've lost rooms. I'm gonna take that. I'm
Speaker 2: gonna captain the ship of my own. New Year's resolutions
Speaker 2: for or against. Through me is against and for good reason.
Speaker 2: She believes that the perfect time to start is now.
Speaker 2: If you want to change your life, do it today.
Speaker 2: You want to be a better person, do it today.
Speaker 2: And I agree with that. However, I think that the
Speaker 2: average person really struggles with self agency, and I think
Speaker 2: the almost like the fanfare around New Years and the refresh,
Speaker 2: is a great motivator for the average person who's constantly
Speaker 2: waiting for permission to do, who needs the invitation to
Speaker 2: start now. We aren't all built in the same way.
Speaker 2: Have you heard about human design. No, it could be
Speaker 2: interesting to you. Human design is another one of those
Speaker 2: personality archetype or systems or whatever. But it basically talks.
Speaker 2: It's definitely what you'd refer to as quack science.
Speaker 1: A right, so you're gonna say it's definitely not for you.
Speaker 2: As I'm pointing at you. No, No, it's definitely like
Speaker 2: it lives in that quack science territory. I I don't
Speaker 2: know how it works. Talks about energy centers. The point
Speaker 2: is it says that there are I think three types
Speaker 2: of people in the world. There are actually four or wait,
Speaker 2: let me so human designs. They say that there are
Speaker 2: five types of people generators, manifesting generators, manifestors, projectors, and reflectors.
Speaker 2: And I'm not gonna explain what each one is. But
Speaker 2: manifesting manifeti, manifesti, carnage and.
Speaker 1: The studio folks.
Speaker 2: Manifesting generators are my people. The types of people just
Speaker 2: make things happen. There's not really rhyme or reason or chaos,
Speaker 2: but they very simply are able to alchemize the things
Speaker 2: they want to do. It just happens. But then they
Speaker 2: are not the people who wait for invitations. They feel
Speaker 2: empowered to go do stuff. They don't need a door
Speaker 2: to be opened for them, they don't need a guide.
Speaker 2: They're like, I'm gonna do it, and they do it. However,
Speaker 2: a big part of the population are projectors, and those
Speaker 2: are the people or projectors and reflectors who need permission
Speaker 2: to start, who want to feel invited, who want to
Speaker 2: answer the call, who want to read the letter, who
Speaker 2: want to get the text before they feel allowed to begin.
Speaker 2: That's why I feel like there is a value in
Speaker 2: this concept of a news resolution, because they might just
Speaker 2: be sitting at home waiting for permission to be like,
Speaker 2: you know what, I get to change today because society
Speaker 2: has allowed me to. And to that, I say, yeah,
Speaker 2: that's cool, because I would hate to feel trapped in
Speaker 2: this mindset of like I can't be anyone different than
Speaker 2: who I am because of whatever the reason might be.
Speaker 1: You can always change, You can always change.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we believe that. Some people don't.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know, it's good to know you can transcend
Speaker 1: and become different categories if you work hard enough.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you can do whatever you want if you work
Speaker 2: hard enough, or so I believe. Yeah, But see, I
Speaker 2: gotta stop that because I believe in merit, and it's
Speaker 2: not real with respect. With respect, merit is not real.
Speaker 2: If you work hard at something, you might not get
Speaker 2: what you want. Unfortunately, happy years and releaship.
Speaker 1: On that note, have fun.
