<v Speaker 2>Hey everyone, welcome back to the potty and Happy Friday.

0:01:13.360 --> 0:01:16.679
<v Speaker 2>Today we have a super fun episode with Cooper. He

0:01:16.880 --> 0:01:20.400
<v Speaker 2>is answering one of the most asked questions we get,

0:01:21.040 --> 0:01:24.679
<v Speaker 2>how to get your partner into self development. He touches

0:01:24.760 --> 0:01:27.399
<v Speaker 2>on how he got into self development how he got

0:01:27.400 --> 0:01:30.240
<v Speaker 2>his partner into it, and also just how you can

0:01:30.280 --> 0:01:33.600
<v Speaker 2>get anyone around you into being interested in it in

0:01:33.640 --> 0:01:37.400
<v Speaker 2>the first place. He also shares a super interesting technique

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.520
<v Speaker 2>that he's been using at the moment for when you

0:01:39.560 --> 0:01:42.640
<v Speaker 2>get into a bit of a heated conversation with someone

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:45.760
<v Speaker 2>you love, and gives you four magic words that you

0:01:45.800 --> 0:01:50.320
<v Speaker 2>can use to defuse certain situations. I may or may

0:01:50.360 --> 0:01:52.920
<v Speaker 2>not have tested this with my mum, but I can

0:01:53.000 --> 0:01:55.520
<v Speaker 2>confirm it wo. I will pop up a thread in

0:01:55.560 --> 0:01:58.560
<v Speaker 2>the Facebook group where you can share your experience once

0:01:58.600 --> 0:02:00.560
<v Speaker 2>you've tested it out, so be sure to hop in

0:02:00.600 --> 0:02:02.360
<v Speaker 2>there if you're not the link will be in the

0:02:02.360 --> 0:02:13.680
<v Speaker 2>show notes. But now let's get straight into the episode.

0:02:15.200 --> 0:02:18.920
<v Speaker 2>Hey Cooper, Hey dear, welcome back to the podcast. Thank you.

0:02:19.200 --> 0:02:22.400
<v Speaker 2>We're so excited to chat to you today about two things.

0:02:22.639 --> 0:02:26.120
<v Speaker 2>Number one is a question we actually get asked a

0:02:26.160 --> 0:02:28.160
<v Speaker 2>lot in our community that I thought you'd be the

0:02:28.200 --> 0:02:31.960
<v Speaker 2>perfect person to get advice from, and that is how

0:02:32.000 --> 0:02:34.800
<v Speaker 2>can you get your partner into self development?

0:02:35.400 --> 0:02:39.520
<v Speaker 3>So, first of all, I would like to say that

0:02:40.400 --> 0:02:45.280
<v Speaker 3>you can never force people to do things. So the

0:02:45.360 --> 0:02:48.360
<v Speaker 3>question is how to get my partner into self development?

0:02:48.520 --> 0:02:52.760
<v Speaker 3>But there can't be anything around it of force like

0:02:52.880 --> 0:02:57.680
<v Speaker 3>you because I feel it can happen, might not happen.

0:02:57.880 --> 0:03:00.800
<v Speaker 3>Of where you try and force this to your partner

0:03:01.000 --> 0:03:03.799
<v Speaker 3>and like you can do it and it can work

0:03:03.880 --> 0:03:07.080
<v Speaker 3>and it can be good, but it also can be bad.

0:03:07.240 --> 0:03:10.799
<v Speaker 3>Where when you tell someone to do something, they use them,

0:03:11.240 --> 0:03:14.160
<v Speaker 3>don't do it, they do the opposite. A good thing

0:03:14.280 --> 0:03:18.200
<v Speaker 3>is to encourage them, influence them, and like it starts

0:03:18.240 --> 0:03:22.119
<v Speaker 3>from you, doesn't start from putting your stuff on them

0:03:22.160 --> 0:03:25.000
<v Speaker 3>and telling them self, development is the best thing and

0:03:25.160 --> 0:03:27.520
<v Speaker 3>you've got to do it. Yeah, you've got to first

0:03:27.520 --> 0:03:30.920
<v Speaker 3>of all, do it in yourself. So start with yourself.

0:03:31.160 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 3>And if you're on the journey and you're feeling that

0:03:34.600 --> 0:03:37.400
<v Speaker 3>it could benefit them a lot, bring them into your world,

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:42.600
<v Speaker 3>like show them what you've been doing, influence them, encourage them,

0:03:43.520 --> 0:03:47.680
<v Speaker 3>and yeah, if you do this in a nice way,

0:03:48.440 --> 0:03:52.440
<v Speaker 3>they might think that's pretty cool. Or if you do something,

0:03:52.480 --> 0:03:55.520
<v Speaker 3>can you get a promotion at work or something else

0:03:55.600 --> 0:03:58.920
<v Speaker 3>happens and you but yeah, so it just it starts

0:03:58.920 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 3>from you. So if you're pushing something on someone and

0:04:05.360 --> 0:04:08.000
<v Speaker 3>it can kind of sometimes tell that you're not fully

0:04:08.040 --> 0:04:13.120
<v Speaker 3>confident in yourself in that area, like when you're trying

0:04:13.120 --> 0:04:16.320
<v Speaker 3>to convince someone to do something, you've got to do it.

0:04:16.320 --> 0:04:18.839
<v Speaker 2>It's usually when you don't want to do it on

0:04:18.880 --> 0:04:19.640
<v Speaker 2>your own.

0:04:19.400 --> 0:04:22.200
<v Speaker 3>In yourself and you need someone to be there with you.

0:04:22.600 --> 0:04:28.040
<v Speaker 3>So everything starts from you. Like you can never blame

0:04:28.120 --> 0:04:32.719
<v Speaker 3>people for stuff, it's always you. So this is the

0:04:32.760 --> 0:04:37.800
<v Speaker 3>same instance. So yeah, start with yourself, get fully confident

0:04:38.240 --> 0:04:40.800
<v Speaker 3>in doing what you're doing and the journey you're on.

0:04:41.279 --> 0:04:44.360
<v Speaker 2>I'd love to know because we have had a few

0:04:44.440 --> 0:04:47.120
<v Speaker 2>people in the Facebook group mentioned that their partners have

0:04:47.279 --> 0:04:52.000
<v Speaker 2>expressed interest in starting self development, but they're just not

0:04:52.120 --> 0:04:56.560
<v Speaker 2>quite sure where to maybe refer them to or what

0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.760
<v Speaker 2>they can start on. What would sort of be your

0:05:00.080 --> 0:05:03.400
<v Speaker 2>commendations on where someone could start.

0:05:04.000 --> 0:05:08.760
<v Speaker 3>For me personally, it was and I have said this

0:05:08.839 --> 0:05:13.280
<v Speaker 3>story before, but it started by listening to books on

0:05:13.320 --> 0:05:18.320
<v Speaker 3>audible and podcasts, So that would be my first thing

0:05:18.480 --> 0:05:22.719
<v Speaker 3>to say to same one. Yeah, and like I chose money,

0:05:23.279 --> 0:05:27.120
<v Speaker 3>I wanted more understanding and I wanted to conquer that. Yeah,

0:05:27.200 --> 0:05:30.279
<v Speaker 3>and so that's where I started and it, yeah, just

0:05:30.440 --> 0:05:34.640
<v Speaker 3>changed everything for me. So I would say that like

0:05:34.800 --> 0:05:40.760
<v Speaker 3>starts gaining knowledge is power, and yeah, go from there.

0:05:41.200 --> 0:05:44.400
<v Speaker 2>And how did you get into manifestation.

0:05:44.960 --> 0:05:47.680
<v Speaker 3>I've kind of just done it naturally, like I've not

0:05:47.800 --> 0:05:49.000
<v Speaker 3>really tried.

0:05:49.600 --> 0:05:51.640
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I feel like that happens with a lot of boys,

0:05:51.640 --> 0:05:52.080
<v Speaker 2>and it's.

0:05:52.040 --> 0:05:56.960
<v Speaker 3>Really I'm more like I've got a drive and I've

0:05:56.960 --> 0:06:03.039
<v Speaker 3>got a passion. Yeah, and the manifesting like it it

0:06:03.279 --> 0:06:08.120
<v Speaker 3>hands down works and it's it's so powerful. But I

0:06:08.200 --> 0:06:12.440
<v Speaker 3>don't use those words for myself, yeah, because they just

0:06:12.480 --> 0:06:17.760
<v Speaker 3>didn't really because like George's the manifesting guru, yeah, and

0:06:18.200 --> 0:06:22.320
<v Speaker 3>yet the one and yeah, I just never really I

0:06:22.400 --> 0:06:25.960
<v Speaker 3>never really did it, but I was doing it because.

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:31.839
<v Speaker 2>Like you embodied it, but you didn't consciously practice anything, right,

0:06:31.920 --> 0:06:34.520
<v Speaker 2>And when did you realize that you were manifesting? When

0:06:34.520 --> 0:06:36.560
<v Speaker 2>did you? Like what was the moment where You're like, oh,

0:06:36.560 --> 0:06:38.240
<v Speaker 2>I've actually been doing this the whole time.

0:06:38.440 --> 0:06:40.400
<v Speaker 3>I don't know, probably a couple of years down the

0:06:40.400 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 3>track with naked harvests, Like I was always always doing

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.840
<v Speaker 3>goals and we're always like we set a year goal

0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.919
<v Speaker 3>and we look back on at me and George and

0:06:49.960 --> 0:06:57.040
<v Speaker 3>we would always get it every time. This ship and

0:06:57.080 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 3>then it then yeah, like it's it's your power of

0:07:01.600 --> 0:07:05.480
<v Speaker 3>what you put on that bit of paper and we

0:07:05.560 --> 0:07:07.720
<v Speaker 3>could have gone bigger numbers than we could have got there.

0:07:07.839 --> 0:07:11.720
<v Speaker 3>So it's just your limiting belief of where you need

0:07:11.720 --> 0:07:13.560
<v Speaker 3>to get to and where you're humbled to get to.

0:07:13.720 --> 0:07:17.480
<v Speaker 3>And I don't know if you think about that, like

0:07:18.040 --> 0:07:20.880
<v Speaker 3>put a big number on or put a big goal

0:07:21.040 --> 0:07:25.280
<v Speaker 3>or something. So, yeah, it's the powers in you. So

0:07:25.280 --> 0:07:34.800
<v Speaker 3>it was you. Everything's you start with you. It's always

0:07:34.840 --> 0:07:40.360
<v Speaker 3>you with everything. But with that question, I was just thinking,

0:07:40.800 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 3>like in a partnership, usually opposites of track, so it

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:49.320
<v Speaker 3>could work. Why not, but try and try and figure

0:07:49.360 --> 0:07:53.200
<v Speaker 3>out where they are in their head and put yourself

0:07:53.240 --> 0:07:58.440
<v Speaker 3>in their shoes and the pressures they've got. And if

0:07:58.480 --> 0:08:04.400
<v Speaker 3>it's yeah, towards the ale, like with self development, he

0:08:04.480 --> 0:08:07.200
<v Speaker 3>might not have the space to do it because he's

0:08:07.240 --> 0:08:10.760
<v Speaker 3>got so much stuff going on in his head with

0:08:11.000 --> 0:08:14.360
<v Speaker 3>pressures and I don't know, trying to provide and that

0:08:14.400 --> 0:08:18.640
<v Speaker 3>sort of thing. So put yourself in his shoes or

0:08:18.680 --> 0:08:25.520
<v Speaker 3>her shoes and pitch yourself there. Yeah, and then think

0:08:25.680 --> 0:08:29.640
<v Speaker 3>how can I influence you, encourage you in that way

0:08:30.120 --> 0:08:34.760
<v Speaker 3>so they get down on their level because yeah, they

0:08:34.840 --> 0:08:37.959
<v Speaker 3>might not want to even believe this stuff or that

0:08:38.000 --> 0:08:40.520
<v Speaker 3>sort of thing, and so you try and work out

0:08:40.600 --> 0:08:41.040
<v Speaker 3>how to.

0:08:43.040 --> 0:08:46.360
<v Speaker 2>And would you almost say that it could even work

0:08:46.440 --> 0:08:49.520
<v Speaker 2>better if instead of going I'm going to get you

0:08:49.559 --> 0:08:51.640
<v Speaker 2>into self development kind of thing of like I've been

0:08:51.679 --> 0:08:55.160
<v Speaker 2>really I've been reading this really good book. You might

0:08:55.360 --> 0:08:57.760
<v Speaker 2>like it and just start with things like that.

0:08:59.520 --> 0:09:04.320
<v Speaker 3>Yet Yeah, so just like get on their level and

0:09:04.360 --> 0:09:07.800
<v Speaker 3>get in their head and like, I.

0:09:07.280 --> 0:09:09.920
<v Speaker 2>See what's consuming their mind kind of thing.

0:09:10.160 --> 0:09:15.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, ask them some questions. So just ask them questions

0:09:16.440 --> 0:09:19.640
<v Speaker 3>like why why don't they want to do it? I

0:09:19.679 --> 0:09:24.680
<v Speaker 3>always do like that word why I use it all

0:09:24.760 --> 0:09:25.240
<v Speaker 3>the time.

0:09:25.440 --> 0:09:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Does anyone ever feel attacked when you say that?

0:09:28.280 --> 0:09:30.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, you just say it in a nice, safe way,

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:34.960
<v Speaker 3>ye say, Oh, that's really like supportive if you're ever

0:09:35.040 --> 0:09:37.800
<v Speaker 3>in a conversation if you have said this, like give

0:09:37.840 --> 0:09:41.040
<v Speaker 3>a safe space and be supportive if you're doing that,

0:09:41.080 --> 0:09:44.200
<v Speaker 3>and just say if you're saying like, oh, it'd be

0:09:44.280 --> 0:09:48.880
<v Speaker 3>really hard to do self development with what's going through

0:09:48.920 --> 0:09:53.960
<v Speaker 3>your head, and like you just give them support and

0:09:54.000 --> 0:09:57.679
<v Speaker 3>then they'll they ego will kind of lower down and

0:09:57.720 --> 0:09:59.880
<v Speaker 3>be like and then allow something.

0:09:59.800 --> 0:10:04.280
<v Speaker 2>In right, so like validate how they're feeling, yeah, and

0:10:04.320 --> 0:10:06.160
<v Speaker 2>then ask what support?

0:10:06.640 --> 0:10:10.160
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, just making them feel safe and they might bring

0:10:10.240 --> 0:10:13.920
<v Speaker 3>up something completely different and non related, but you might

0:10:13.960 --> 0:10:18.000
<v Speaker 3>get a good conversation. So like, I ask those deepig questions,

0:10:18.679 --> 0:10:20.400
<v Speaker 3>but not too deep because then your skin.

0:10:23.360 --> 0:10:26.280
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, so well, I know there was something else

0:10:26.280 --> 0:10:28.320
<v Speaker 2>you wanted to talk about on the podcast today. Do

0:10:28.320 --> 0:10:30.920
<v Speaker 2>you want to share with us? I think it flows

0:10:30.960 --> 0:10:33.040
<v Speaker 2>on nicely from what you were just talking about. Ego.

0:10:33.520 --> 0:10:36.720
<v Speaker 3>This has come up a few times in conversations with

0:10:36.800 --> 0:10:41.720
<v Speaker 3>friends and family and in a conversation when you're in

0:10:41.760 --> 0:10:47.840
<v Speaker 3>the fight or flight mode and someone's wants to be right.

0:10:48.679 --> 0:10:52.880
<v Speaker 3>M So it's a big thing that our egos need

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:55.840
<v Speaker 3>to be right. And I got this from a book.

0:10:56.160 --> 0:11:00.319
<v Speaker 3>It's not what book, but the author's Wayne Dyer. All

0:11:00.320 --> 0:11:05.240
<v Speaker 3>this stuff. He's the man, yeah, and what he preaches

0:11:05.400 --> 0:11:10.640
<v Speaker 3>and what he tells people to do in conflict in

0:11:10.720 --> 0:11:13.880
<v Speaker 3>those situations. I do this with my wife as well,

0:11:14.080 --> 0:11:16.400
<v Speaker 3>and I give her the information so she can use

0:11:16.440 --> 0:11:19.920
<v Speaker 3>it on me. And just don't do that too much.

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:24.400
<v Speaker 3>Though I've heard that, oh you kind of use it

0:11:24.440 --> 0:11:27.720
<v Speaker 3>too much, then it won't work. But you use it

0:11:28.240 --> 0:11:31.040
<v Speaker 3>here when it needs to be done. Otherwise, if you

0:11:31.080 --> 0:11:33.480
<v Speaker 3>do it too much, you just like shut the hell up,

0:11:34.720 --> 0:11:37.720
<v Speaker 3>because sometimes you need to let it out yeah, And

0:11:38.240 --> 0:11:42.880
<v Speaker 3>it's yeah to lower the ego because when you're arguing.

0:11:43.040 --> 0:11:44.960
<v Speaker 2>You want to be right absolutely.

0:11:45.080 --> 0:11:48.000
<v Speaker 3>Yes. So when someone comes in and says, I don't know,

0:11:48.080 --> 0:11:49.839
<v Speaker 3>you go into a party. I think he kind of

0:11:49.880 --> 0:11:53.400
<v Speaker 3>says that, why did you put the food out on

0:11:53.440 --> 0:11:56.200
<v Speaker 3>the table like that? It's such a weird way, like

0:11:56.240 --> 0:11:58.720
<v Speaker 3>you should have done it this way, yeah, or something

0:11:58.760 --> 0:12:00.800
<v Speaker 3>in those lines of like you should have done it

0:12:01.160 --> 0:12:04.640
<v Speaker 3>like that like this, yeah, and you say four words

0:12:05.000 --> 0:12:08.280
<v Speaker 3>and those four words are you're right about that? I

0:12:08.320 --> 0:12:09.880
<v Speaker 3>have to make it.

0:12:14.840 --> 0:12:15.880
<v Speaker 2>I know. It's full.

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:26.360
<v Speaker 3>Pressure, so funny. Yeah. So when they say those things,

0:12:26.520 --> 0:12:29.080
<v Speaker 3>like you picture it in your head and they're trying

0:12:29.080 --> 0:12:30.839
<v Speaker 3>to be right, and you're like, you should have done

0:12:30.880 --> 0:12:33.040
<v Speaker 3>it like that, and you just say, yeah, you're right

0:12:33.040 --> 0:12:33.400
<v Speaker 3>about that.

0:12:34.440 --> 0:12:36.040
<v Speaker 2>What are they going to do? But can't do anything?

0:12:36.040 --> 0:12:38.520
<v Speaker 3>You can't do anything, And then their ego just goes down,

0:12:38.600 --> 0:12:42.280
<v Speaker 3>like I'll be my mind's down, just lowers down. And

0:12:42.320 --> 0:12:46.400
<v Speaker 3>then they might try and bring it up again because

0:12:46.440 --> 0:12:49.360
<v Speaker 3>they might say, oh, well, next time, do it this way.

0:12:49.520 --> 0:12:52.040
<v Speaker 3>You're going to do it that way, and then you say, no.

0:12:52.240 --> 0:12:52.679
<v Speaker 2>Probably not.

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:55.120
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to do it my way because that's what

0:12:55.200 --> 0:12:59.040
<v Speaker 3>I want now, and they might say no, but this

0:12:59.200 --> 0:13:01.559
<v Speaker 3>is a better way. Then you say, yeah, you're right

0:13:01.559 --> 0:13:08.040
<v Speaker 3>about that. It's like, so it's a really cool tool

0:13:08.200 --> 0:13:11.679
<v Speaker 3>I've been using and you can use it anywhere in

0:13:11.720 --> 0:13:15.720
<v Speaker 3>any conversation when it gets heated, like let them be right?

0:13:16.080 --> 0:13:20.040
<v Speaker 2>And how do you almost stop that from I guess

0:13:20.080 --> 0:13:22.920
<v Speaker 2>being a rollercoaster because in my head when you told

0:13:22.920 --> 0:13:25.960
<v Speaker 2>that story, it's like they ask you and you say, yeah,

0:13:25.960 --> 0:13:28.000
<v Speaker 2>you're right, and then they have to kind of back off.

0:13:28.400 --> 0:13:30.439
<v Speaker 2>And then if they follow up and say, you know,

0:13:30.520 --> 0:13:32.679
<v Speaker 2>do that like the next time, you're not gonna lie,

0:13:32.720 --> 0:13:34.080
<v Speaker 2>so you say no, I'm probably gonna do it my

0:13:34.080 --> 0:13:36.920
<v Speaker 2>way again, and then it like almost fires back up

0:13:36.920 --> 0:13:38.800
<v Speaker 2>again and they need to be right. So is it

0:13:38.880 --> 0:13:41.760
<v Speaker 2>just sort of like you just keep saying that until

0:13:41.920 --> 0:13:43.360
<v Speaker 2>they just don't ask again.

0:13:44.240 --> 0:13:46.960
<v Speaker 3>If you want to, but test it out like it yeah,

0:13:47.120 --> 0:13:51.679
<v Speaker 3>probably won't go or because they'll figure out I'm not

0:13:51.720 --> 0:13:55.240
<v Speaker 3>getting anywhere with this person because yeah, they're so content

0:13:55.520 --> 0:13:59.959
<v Speaker 3>and not getting fired up. They probably want to fight, yeah,

0:14:00.240 --> 0:14:02.600
<v Speaker 3>and they want that conflict, but you're not giving it

0:14:02.640 --> 0:14:04.319
<v Speaker 3>to him, and then they just think.

0:14:06.280 --> 0:14:09.600
<v Speaker 2>And how have you I guess navigated the difference of

0:14:09.679 --> 0:14:14.480
<v Speaker 2>knowing when to do that and when that person just

0:14:14.559 --> 0:14:16.320
<v Speaker 2>needs to like let a bit of steam out and

0:14:16.360 --> 0:14:18.800
<v Speaker 2>to guys, I guess let them just be angry.

0:14:20.640 --> 0:14:23.640
<v Speaker 3>Well, another thing you can kind of do is put

0:14:23.680 --> 0:14:28.560
<v Speaker 3>yourself in their shoes. Yeah, so I said this this

0:14:28.600 --> 0:14:31.560
<v Speaker 3>morning to my mom and dad. And like when someone's

0:14:31.640 --> 0:14:35.360
<v Speaker 3>grumpy when they're working or something, can they're grumpy and

0:14:35.440 --> 0:14:38.760
<v Speaker 3>they're giving you your bad energy and you just think, man,

0:14:38.840 --> 0:14:42.520
<v Speaker 3>that guy's so grumpy, like you get aggressive and you're like, yeah,

0:14:43.600 --> 0:14:48.560
<v Speaker 3>but like imagine being them if they've had something personal

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:51.280
<v Speaker 3>big in their life happen and they're just having a

0:14:51.320 --> 0:14:54.800
<v Speaker 3>bad day. And I'm getting this off when Diane as well,

0:14:54.880 --> 0:14:58.040
<v Speaker 3>and he says, like, just say some nice words, Just say,

0:14:58.160 --> 0:15:01.320
<v Speaker 3>oh man, this job would be so hard, Like you've

0:15:01.320 --> 0:15:03.880
<v Speaker 3>got such a hard job, you do so such an

0:15:03.880 --> 0:15:07.760
<v Speaker 3>amazing job and you're doing so well, like it must

0:15:07.840 --> 0:15:09.880
<v Speaker 3>you must be a bit tired or I don't know,

0:15:09.960 --> 0:15:13.720
<v Speaker 3>say something nice and then that's their ego down and

0:15:13.760 --> 0:15:17.560
<v Speaker 3>they're like thanks so much for noticing, because I just

0:15:17.600 --> 0:15:20.560
<v Speaker 3>want to be noticed or they have some sort of

0:15:20.640 --> 0:15:25.440
<v Speaker 3>need and because if you just think if you fire up,

0:15:26.200 --> 0:15:29.080
<v Speaker 3>they're going to fire back. And yeah, it's the ego again,

0:15:29.200 --> 0:15:33.240
<v Speaker 3>and you kind of just don't let that happen. And yeah,

0:15:33.240 --> 0:15:37.040
<v Speaker 3>your instincts might be to go for it. Yeah, but

0:15:38.520 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 3>if you've got enough time, sometimes you don't, but to

0:15:42.400 --> 0:15:47.280
<v Speaker 3>take three deep breaths in your belly and that really

0:15:47.320 --> 0:15:48.760
<v Speaker 3>calms your nervous system down.

0:15:49.840 --> 0:15:54.640
<v Speaker 2>And how have you worked on I guess being so

0:15:54.800 --> 0:15:58.480
<v Speaker 2>aware of like your instinct to I guess fire back

0:15:59.120 --> 0:16:01.680
<v Speaker 2>and stop yoursel well from doing that. Is it just

0:16:01.760 --> 0:16:05.440
<v Speaker 2>like the conscious breadths before you say anything back? Or

0:16:05.480 --> 0:16:07.760
<v Speaker 2>do you have any other tips on because I'm a

0:16:07.760 --> 0:16:09.880
<v Speaker 2>bit of a fiery person as well. And if someone

0:16:10.840 --> 0:16:23.400
<v Speaker 2>you're you haven't seen it yet, I can be But

0:16:23.520 --> 0:16:27.440
<v Speaker 2>if someone like pushes a button, I struggle, Like as

0:16:27.480 --> 0:16:30.080
<v Speaker 2>soon as I've said the thing, I'm like, oh, I

0:16:30.080 --> 0:16:33.600
<v Speaker 2>shouldn't have I just should have kept quiet. They're obviously

0:16:33.720 --> 0:16:36.080
<v Speaker 2>just having a bad day. But how did you bring

0:16:36.120 --> 0:16:39.920
<v Speaker 2>that awareness from like after you've said it too, before

0:16:40.200 --> 0:16:42.800
<v Speaker 2>you say it? It's just practice.

0:16:43.160 --> 0:16:46.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, so you kind of you catch yourself and that's

0:16:46.680 --> 0:16:48.720
<v Speaker 3>the first thing, and being aware of it, because not

0:16:48.840 --> 0:16:52.040
<v Speaker 3>many people aren't even aware and they just go for it.

0:16:52.120 --> 0:16:56.280
<v Speaker 3>So being aware is the first thing. And then you

0:16:56.360 --> 0:16:58.760
<v Speaker 3>go from there. When that happens again, I'm not going

0:16:58.840 --> 0:17:03.640
<v Speaker 3>to do that thing. Yeah, I'm gonna be more content

0:17:03.800 --> 0:17:06.720
<v Speaker 3>and be more calm and how can I do that?

0:17:06.800 --> 0:17:09.880
<v Speaker 3>And you figure out a plan and yeah, step by

0:17:09.920 --> 0:17:14.960
<v Speaker 3>step it becomes you get like evidence that you're trying

0:17:15.000 --> 0:17:19.320
<v Speaker 3>to not be that person that's aggressive. And yeah, you

0:17:19.400 --> 0:17:22.320
<v Speaker 3>get to the point where it might just get you,

0:17:22.400 --> 0:17:24.920
<v Speaker 3>because it'll get you and you might even just close

0:17:24.920 --> 0:17:30.680
<v Speaker 3>your eyes and go and then go for it. There's

0:17:30.680 --> 0:17:34.080
<v Speaker 3>something really simple or like, yeah, just keep practicing it

0:17:34.440 --> 0:17:35.879
<v Speaker 3>if you want to do it though.

0:17:35.960 --> 0:17:38.720
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, the powers in you, yeah.

0:17:39.600 --> 0:17:45.560
<v Speaker 3>To me than anyone else. So yeah, that's a that's

0:17:45.560 --> 0:17:47.960
<v Speaker 3>a cool thing I've been doing and it's been working

0:17:48.040 --> 0:17:48.520
<v Speaker 3>really well.

0:17:48.720 --> 0:17:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I love that. I actually can't wait to try that words.

0:17:52.280 --> 0:17:54.040
<v Speaker 3>You're right about that.

0:17:54.440 --> 0:17:59.120
<v Speaker 2>You're right about that music. I feel so wrong to say,

0:17:59.280 --> 0:18:01.480
<v Speaker 2>like so cat, yeah, you're right about that.

0:18:03.000 --> 0:18:04.280
<v Speaker 3>Try it. Everyone, try it.

0:18:04.440 --> 0:18:06.560
<v Speaker 2>Everyone try it will pop up both thread in the

0:18:06.600 --> 0:18:09.919
<v Speaker 2>Facebook group and let us know how it felt and

0:18:10.119 --> 0:18:11.680
<v Speaker 2>if it worked yep.

0:18:11.560 --> 0:18:14.040
<v Speaker 3>Because if they're yeah, I can just picture it like

0:18:14.119 --> 0:18:15.400
<v Speaker 3>someone coming.

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.240
<v Speaker 2>Home fully get thrown off guard.

0:18:17.119 --> 0:18:20.520
<v Speaker 3>And then like yeah, you're in. You're in a relationship

0:18:20.600 --> 0:18:23.080
<v Speaker 3>and you're getting home and the other person's had not

0:18:23.200 --> 0:18:26.159
<v Speaker 3>much sleep, and then you do something wrong that doesn't

0:18:26.160 --> 0:18:29.280
<v Speaker 3>make sense and they fire back at you. Just say, yeah,

0:18:29.320 --> 0:18:31.640
<v Speaker 3>you're right about that. You must be having a really

0:18:31.640 --> 0:18:33.400
<v Speaker 3>bad day. And then just.

0:18:33.359 --> 0:18:34.560
<v Speaker 2>See, they'll calm down.

0:18:34.560 --> 0:18:38.080
<v Speaker 3>They'll be like, I am having a bad day, thanks

0:18:38.119 --> 0:18:40.440
<v Speaker 3>for noticing, and then you'll have a good conversation.
