00:00:01 | 00:00:05 | hey guys it's tatiana |
00:00:03 | 00:00:07 | i don't usually make videos on a whim |
00:00:05 | 00:00:09 | like this with my phone |
00:00:07 | 00:00:10 | but i was sitting here and i was |
00:00:09 | 00:00:13 | thinking about |
00:00:10 | 00:00:14 | you guys i was thinking about how can i |
00:00:13 | 00:00:17 | add |
00:00:14 | 00:00:21 | more value to you to my viewers |
00:00:17 | 00:00:24 | um given the context |
00:00:21 | 00:00:28 | of now we are ending this year 2020 |
00:00:24 | 00:00:32 | uh almost one year with this covid19 |
00:00:28 | 00:00:34 | pandemic with this virus ruling in 2021 |
00:00:32 | 00:00:36 | where things haven't really changed |
00:00:34 | 00:00:37 | in fact they've gotten worse and i don't |
00:00:36 | 00:00:39 | think any of us predict it |
00:00:37 | 00:00:41 | could have ever predicted that this |
00:00:39 | 00:00:44 | would prolong for so long |
00:00:41 | 00:00:44 | and so it has been an incredibly |
00:00:44 | 00:00:47 | challenging time |
00:00:44 | 00:00:50 | for most people around the world and |
00:00:47 | 00:00:53 | some more than others |
00:00:50 | 00:00:55 | a challenging time economically for |
00:00:53 | 00:00:57 | those who have been laid off |
00:00:55 | 00:00:59 | from their work or who have had their |
00:00:57 | 00:01:02 | hours cut back |
00:00:59 | 00:01:05 | been challenging to |
00:01:02 | 00:01:06 | be under quarantine if you have had to |
00:01:05 | 00:01:09 | be |
00:01:06 | 00:01:11 | locked down in an apartment or your home |
00:01:09 | 00:01:13 | for an extended period of time |
00:01:11 | 00:01:15 | that can be extremely emotionally |
00:01:13 | 00:01:17 | challenging especially spending |
00:01:15 | 00:01:20 | uh more time than you're used to with |
00:01:17 | 00:01:21 | your family and having your kids at home |
00:01:20 | 00:01:25 | when they usually are at school |
00:01:21 | 00:01:28 | trying to manage working from home and |
00:01:25 | 00:01:28 | having your kids at home uh it's it's a |
00:01:28 | 00:01:31 | lot |
00:01:28 | 00:01:32 | to manage uh it's been challenging for |
00:01:31 | 00:01:35 | people who have |
00:01:32 | 00:01:36 | lost a loved one someone who's been in |
00:01:35 | 00:01:39 | their lives |
00:01:36 | 00:01:40 | their whole life and all of a sudden |
00:01:39 | 00:01:42 | they're not there anymore they're not in |
00:01:40 | 00:01:44 | the picture anymore they can't just |
00:01:42 | 00:01:46 | call that person and tok to them |
00:01:44 | 00:01:49 | they're just no longer there |
00:01:46 | 00:01:51 | and just so unexpectedly uh it's been |
00:01:49 | 00:01:55 | challenging for people who are single |
00:01:51 | 00:01:58 | who have had to spend this time alone |
00:01:55 | 00:02:00 | not able to really socialize and hang |
00:01:58 | 00:02:03 | out with friends |
00:02:00 | 00:02:07 | go dating being alone in an apartment or |
00:02:03 | 00:02:08 | a home for so many months |
00:02:07 | 00:02:11 | especially those who are more |
00:02:08 | 00:02:12 | extroverted and i think that |
00:02:11 | 00:02:14 | sometimes those of us who are |
00:02:12 | 00:02:17 | introverted don't necessarily understand |
00:02:14 | 00:02:18 | how difficult it is for someone who is |
00:02:17 | 00:02:22 | more social and who |
00:02:18 | 00:02:25 | is used to being around people so much |
00:02:22 | 00:02:27 | i myself am fairly introverted the last |
00:02:25 | 00:02:29 | three months i've spent |
00:02:27 | 00:02:30 | here in hawaii i haven't hung out with |
00:02:29 | 00:02:32 | anyone other than stefan |
00:02:30 | 00:02:34 | we spent three months together we're |
00:02:32 | 00:02:35 | both very very introverted people we |
00:02:34 | 00:02:38 | travel |
00:02:35 | 00:02:39 | the world uh just in each other's |
00:02:38 | 00:02:42 | company |
00:02:39 | 00:02:46 | and um and so for us it's it hasn't been |
00:02:42 | 00:02:48 | such a shock to the system to not |
00:02:46 | 00:02:49 | be around people all the time but i know |
00:02:48 | 00:02:51 | from my |
00:02:49 | 00:02:53 | more extroverted friends for my friends |
00:02:51 | 00:02:54 | who are used to being around people it's |
00:02:53 | 00:02:56 | been |
00:02:54 | 00:02:57 | devastating it's been emotionally |
00:02:56 | 00:03:00 | challenging |
00:02:57 | 00:03:01 | um and you have to understand that we |
00:03:00 | 00:03:04 | are |
00:03:01 | 00:03:04 | as a society we are all interconnected |
00:03:04 | 00:03:06 | you know we |
00:03:04 | 00:03:08 | we like we kind of hype up the word |
00:03:06 | 00:03:10 | independent and on some level it's |
00:03:08 | 00:03:14 | important to have independence of course |
00:03:10 | 00:03:17 | but as a whole we are |
00:03:14 | 00:03:19 | interconnected on such a profound level |
00:03:17 | 00:03:21 | the clothes that you're wearing were not |
00:03:19 | 00:03:23 | made by you the streets that you drive |
00:03:21 | 00:03:26 | on were not paved by you the car that |
00:03:23 | 00:03:27 | you drive in was not made by you |
00:03:26 | 00:03:29 | the phone or the computer that you're |
00:03:27 | 00:03:30 | watching this from you know like |
00:03:29 | 00:03:32 | we all contribute to each other and |
00:03:30 | 00:03:35 | we're all connected |
00:03:32 | 00:03:37 | on every single level and |
00:03:35 | 00:03:38 | community is such an important thing for |
00:03:37 | 00:03:41 | human beings |
00:03:38 | 00:03:42 | and for some more than others again but |
00:03:41 | 00:03:44 | community is so |
00:03:42 | 00:03:45 | vital it's part of who we are we are |
00:03:44 | 00:03:48 | communal creatures |
00:03:45 | 00:03:49 | and the proof for that is just look at |
00:03:48 | 00:03:53 | for example |
00:03:49 | 00:03:56 | prior to covid how stadiums would |
00:03:53 | 00:03:57 | be full you know for example an nba |
00:03:56 | 00:03:59 | playoff game |
00:03:57 | 00:04:00 | people spending tens of thousands of |
00:03:59 | 00:04:04 | dollars |
00:04:00 | 00:04:04 | to get a seat to watch the basketball |
00:04:04 | 00:04:07 | game |
00:04:04 | 00:04:09 | and you think to yourself well why would |
00:04:07 | 00:04:10 | they spend that much money when they can |
00:04:09 | 00:04:12 | watch it |
00:04:10 | 00:04:13 | in high definition from the comfort of |
00:04:12 | 00:04:14 | their own home they get a way better |
00:04:13 | 00:04:15 | view |
00:04:14 | 00:04:17 | way better audio they can even hear the |
00:04:15 | 00:04:18 | commentators |
00:04:17 | 00:04:20 | why would they spend tens of thousands |
00:04:18 | 00:04:22 | of dollars to sit in the stadium where |
00:04:20 | 00:04:23 | they may not get as good of a view they |
00:04:22 | 00:04:25 | might not hear everything |
00:04:23 | 00:04:28 | and the reason being is because they |
00:04:25 | 00:04:29 | want to be part of a community they want |
00:04:28 | 00:04:32 | to be in it they want to |
00:04:29 | 00:04:36 | feel the energy of other |
00:04:32 | 00:04:38 | fans the cheering the it's the feeling |
00:04:36 | 00:04:41 | of community it's being |
00:04:38 | 00:04:43 | in one i remember i went to a football |
00:04:41 | 00:04:44 | game soccer game in brazil many years |
00:04:43 | 00:04:46 | ago |
00:04:44 | 00:04:48 | and it's amazing how you're in the |
00:04:46 | 00:04:48 | stadiums and they have this song that |
00:04:48 | 00:04:51 | they cheer |
00:04:48 | 00:04:52 | everyone chants the song and just the |
00:04:51 | 00:04:56 | power of it of |
00:04:52 | 00:04:56 | everyone chanting at the same time it's |
00:04:56 | 00:04:58 | just it gives you |
00:04:56 | 00:04:59 | shivers and it gives you this feeling of |
00:04:58 | 00:05:02 | excitement |
00:04:59 | 00:05:04 | um just being part of a community and in |
00:05:02 | 00:05:07 | those moments you really feel it when |
00:05:04 | 00:05:08 | you're in the stadiums and you're there |
00:05:07 | 00:05:11 | and you're kind of |
00:05:08 | 00:05:12 | coherent everyone is just coherent you |
00:05:11 | 00:05:14 | feel |
00:05:12 | 00:05:15 | like the person next to me is my brother |
00:05:14 | 00:05:19 | the person next to me is my sister |
00:05:15 | 00:05:21 | you feel very whole and same thing with |
00:05:19 | 00:05:22 | like concerts you know people go to |
00:05:21 | 00:05:24 | concerts when again they can watch it |
00:05:22 | 00:05:27 | you know high definition on their tv |
00:05:24 | 00:05:28 | and so we crave community and i think |
00:05:27 | 00:05:30 | that's been |
00:05:28 | 00:05:31 | by far the most devastating part of |
00:05:30 | 00:05:34 | covid |
00:05:31 | 00:05:37 | 19 is the lack of |
00:05:34 | 00:05:38 | of community in some sense you can still |
00:05:37 | 00:05:41 | create community |
00:05:38 | 00:05:42 | there's communities online but the |
00:05:41 | 00:05:46 | physical connection |
00:05:42 | 00:05:49 | the uh ability to be with other people |
00:05:46 | 00:05:51 | in groups and um so it's been a very |
00:05:49 | 00:05:53 | challenging time to say the least and |
00:05:51 | 00:05:54 | for some more than others especially |
00:05:53 | 00:05:57 | those who have lost |
00:05:54 | 00:05:58 | loved ones so i mean i was just kind of |
00:05:57 | 00:06:00 | thinking to myself |
00:05:58 | 00:06:01 | what can i do to add more value and i |
00:06:00 | 00:06:05 | just kind of |
00:06:01 | 00:06:05 | landed on this thought of how really |
00:06:05 | 00:06:10 | sometimes |
00:06:05 | 00:06:12 | all we need is just some encouragement |
00:06:10 | 00:06:14 | sometimes all we need is just to hear |
00:06:12 | 00:06:16 | what we already |
00:06:14 | 00:06:18 | know and just some words of |
00:06:16 | 00:06:21 | encouragement to kind of lift us up |
00:06:18 | 00:06:21 | and help us kind of pull it together |
00:06:21 | 00:06:29 | you are an amazing person and |
00:06:25 | 00:06:32 | you are so incredibly capable and strong |
00:06:29 | 00:06:36 | and this too shall pass this |
00:06:32 | 00:06:37 | coveted pandemic shall pass we may have |
00:06:36 | 00:06:39 | thought it would have been lasting a |
00:06:37 | 00:06:43 | couple months a few months |
00:06:39 | 00:06:44 | um it's lasted longer but eventually it |
00:06:43 | 00:06:46 | will pass |
00:06:44 | 00:06:48 | just look at history it does pass okay |
00:06:46 | 00:06:50 | so this is a time |
00:06:48 | 00:06:51 | that no matter how difficult it is just |
00:06:50 | 00:06:53 | remember |
00:06:51 | 00:06:55 | always remember that you're gonna get |
00:06:53 | 00:06:56 | through this |
00:06:55 | 00:06:58 | and you're gonna get through it because |
00:06:56 | 00:07:01 | you're a strong person |
00:06:58 | 00:07:02 | just think of a time in your past in |
00:07:01 | 00:07:05 | your history |
00:07:02 | 00:07:06 | when you had taken on an endeavor you |
00:07:05 | 00:07:09 | had |
00:07:06 | 00:07:10 | taken on something that just seemed so |
00:07:09 | 00:07:13 | challenging |
00:07:10 | 00:07:14 | so out of reach that you were just like |
00:07:13 | 00:07:16 | oh my gosh i don't know |
00:07:14 | 00:07:17 | how i'm ever going to achieve this i |
00:07:16 | 00:07:21 | don't know how i'm going to pull |
00:07:17 | 00:07:22 | this off but you did it you did it you |
00:07:21 | 00:07:24 | pulled through and you achieved it you |
00:07:22 | 00:07:27 | you created success |
00:07:24 | 00:07:29 | you achieved the goal you now have a |
00:07:27 | 00:07:31 | proven track record |
00:07:29 | 00:07:32 | okay so think back at a time when |
00:07:31 | 00:07:35 | something seemed |
00:07:32 | 00:07:37 | at one point at a time impossible |
00:07:35 | 00:07:39 | and you overcame it you faced it you |
00:07:37 | 00:07:42 | challenged it and you overcame it |
00:07:39 | 00:07:44 | i this puzzle behind me this is a |
00:07:42 | 00:07:45 | thousand pieces when i opened this |
00:07:44 | 00:07:47 | puzzle up from the box i've never |
00:07:45 | 00:07:49 | builted a thousand piece puzzle before |
00:07:47 | 00:07:51 | when i opened it up i was like oh heck |
00:07:49 | 00:07:51 | no i'm not doing this this is going to |
00:07:51 | 00:07:54 | take |
00:07:51 | 00:07:56 | so much of my time uh i i don't want to |
00:07:54 | 00:07:59 | do this and i can't do this |
00:07:56 | 00:08:00 | and but i set a goal for myself and when |
00:07:59 | 00:08:04 | i set goals for myself |
00:08:00 | 00:08:06 | i do them i achieve them because i |
00:08:04 | 00:08:08 | understand the subconscious effect |
00:08:06 | 00:08:10 | that achieving goals has it helped me |
00:08:08 | 00:08:12 | create a track record for myself |
00:08:10 | 00:08:14 | now that i've done this puzzle i feel |
00:08:12 | 00:08:15 | like i can achieve anything i want in |
00:08:14 | 00:08:18 | the entire world |
00:08:15 | 00:08:18 | and obviously that's an exaggeration but |
00:08:18 | 00:08:22 | the feeling |
00:08:18 | 00:08:23 | of doing this of every a thousand pieces |
00:08:22 | 00:08:25 | every single piece i had to look for |
00:08:23 | 00:08:26 | each and every one of them one thousand |
00:08:25 | 00:08:27 | pieces |
00:08:26 | 00:08:30 | and the feeling when i found that |
00:08:27 | 00:08:33 | perfect piece and i popped it in just |
00:08:30 | 00:08:35 | felt amazing and uh here it is now and |
00:08:33 | 00:08:37 | i'm gonna have to destroy it because i'm |
00:08:35 | 00:08:39 | leaving hawaii pretty soon |
00:08:37 | 00:08:40 | but it's something that once seemed |
00:08:39 | 00:08:43 | overwhelming |
00:08:40 | 00:08:45 | that i have now accomplished so i |
00:08:43 | 00:08:47 | encourage you to look back |
00:08:45 | 00:08:49 | at your track record and think of a time |
00:08:47 | 00:08:52 | where something seemed |
00:08:49 | 00:08:54 | impossible and you managed it and covet |
00:08:52 | 00:08:55 | 19 is not any different than that |
00:08:54 | 00:08:58 | whatever you're struggling with right |
00:08:55 | 00:09:02 | now is not any different than that |
00:08:58 | 00:09:02 | and what you have to realize is that |
00:09:03 | 00:09:07 | covet 19 really all it is is a very |
00:09:06 | 00:09:11 | worthy |
00:09:07 | 00:09:12 | opponent an opponent because it's only a |
00:09:11 | 00:09:16 | truly worthy opponent |
00:09:12 | 00:09:18 | that will make you grow and that's how i |
00:09:16 | 00:09:19 | like to see my challenges in life as |
00:09:18 | 00:09:23 | worthy opponents |
00:09:19 | 00:09:25 | because if everything was easy then |
00:09:23 | 00:09:27 | you're not really going to grow the only |
00:09:25 | 00:09:28 | times that you grow in life |
00:09:27 | 00:09:30 | is when you are challenged when you go |
00:09:28 | 00:09:32 | to the gym and you lift |
00:09:30 | 00:09:34 | weights if you're lifting a very light |
00:09:32 | 00:09:37 | weight is your muscle going to grow |
00:09:34 | 00:09:39 | no you will maintain the muscle because |
00:09:37 | 00:09:41 | if you don't use it you'll lose it |
00:09:39 | 00:09:42 | but the muscle won't grow unless you |
00:09:41 | 00:09:44 | challenge it |
00:09:42 | 00:09:45 | and it's the same thing with anything in |
00:09:44 | 00:09:47 | life it's when you are |
00:09:45 | 00:09:49 | challenged that you grow and when you |
00:09:47 | 00:09:51 | grow you |
00:09:49 | 00:09:52 | you create meaning in your life there's |
00:09:51 | 00:09:54 | a there's a sense |
00:09:52 | 00:09:56 | there's a fulfillment that comes from |
00:09:54 | 00:09:58 | growth there's a sense of meaning a |
00:09:56 | 00:10:02 | sense of purpose a sense of |
00:09:58 | 00:10:04 | uh identity where you you feel like you |
00:10:02 | 00:10:06 | are developing as a human being and |
00:10:04 | 00:10:08 | really that's what we're meant to do on |
00:10:06 | 00:10:09 | earth we're all meant to evolve if we |
00:10:08 | 00:10:11 | didn't evolve we would |
00:10:09 | 00:10:13 | stay at a certain conscious level for |
00:10:11 | 00:10:15 | our entire lives and that would be |
00:10:13 | 00:10:18 | extremely unfulfilling and fulfilling we |
00:10:15 | 00:10:22 | want to raise our consciousness |
00:10:18 | 00:10:23 | and so all coveted 19 is is a worthy |
00:10:22 | 00:10:25 | opponent now |
00:10:23 | 00:10:26 | tony robbins toks about how there are |
00:10:25 | 00:10:29 | three |
00:10:26 | 00:10:32 | opponents and the first opponent |
00:10:29 | 00:10:36 | is the external opponent the environment |
00:10:32 | 00:10:38 | things outside of you so for example |
00:10:36 | 00:10:40 | um covet 19 would in this case be the |
00:10:38 | 00:10:42 | external opponent |
00:10:40 | 00:10:43 | not something that we ever wanted it's |
00:10:42 | 00:10:46 | outside of us it's |
00:10:43 | 00:10:47 | not within our control and therefore is |
00:10:46 | 00:10:50 | the external opponent |
00:10:47 | 00:10:51 | the second opponent is the internal |
00:10:50 | 00:10:54 | opponent |
00:10:51 | 00:10:57 | so it is the fight within yourself |
00:10:54 | 00:10:58 | it's the emotions that you're feeling on |
00:10:57 | 00:11:00 | a day-to-day |
00:10:58 | 00:11:01 | basis that are pulling you in different |
00:11:00 | 00:11:04 | directions |
00:11:01 | 00:11:07 | it's the mental health challenges it's |
00:11:04 | 00:11:08 | it's whatever it is the fight within |
00:11:07 | 00:11:11 | yourself |
00:11:08 | 00:11:13 | and the third opponent is uh |
00:11:11 | 00:11:16 | an intimate opponent so someone close to |
00:11:13 | 00:11:18 | you perhaps your spouse your partner |
00:11:16 | 00:11:20 | your husband your wife uh possibly even |
00:11:18 | 00:11:22 | your kids |
00:11:20 | 00:11:24 | and so i would arguably say that during |
00:11:22 | 00:11:26 | this coca-19 pandemic one of the reasons |
00:11:24 | 00:11:28 | why it's been so challenging |
00:11:26 | 00:11:29 | is because we've been experiencing all |
00:11:28 | 00:11:31 | three opponents |
00:11:29 | 00:11:32 | we've got covid19 we've got the |
00:11:31 | 00:11:34 | emotional |
00:11:32 | 00:11:36 | challenges that come along with it |
00:11:34 | 00:11:40 | within ourselves |
00:11:36 | 00:11:42 | uh incredibly challenging i would say |
00:11:40 | 00:11:43 | the internal opponents are much more |
00:11:42 | 00:11:45 | challenging to overcome than the |
00:11:43 | 00:11:47 | external from my experience |
00:11:45 | 00:11:48 | and then the intimate opponents spending |
00:11:47 | 00:11:50 | all this time with your partner |
00:11:48 | 00:11:53 | sometimes they can get on your nerves |
00:11:50 | 00:11:54 | and it can create friction and you have |
00:11:53 | 00:11:57 | to |
00:11:54 | 00:11:59 | overcome this so you can see this as |
00:11:57 | 00:12:00 | a challenge that is just something for |
00:11:59 | 00:12:03 | you to work on |
00:12:00 | 00:12:04 | and to overcome now i want to mention |
00:12:03 | 00:12:07 | that |
00:12:04 | 00:12:08 | you know the reason i say that you were |
00:12:07 | 00:12:11 | strong |
00:12:08 | 00:12:12 | you were capable you are incredible you |
00:12:11 | 00:12:15 | can overcome this it's not just |
00:12:12 | 00:12:16 | a bunch of words to make you feel good i |
00:12:15 | 00:12:19 | mean them |
00:12:16 | 00:12:21 | you are no different than the people |
00:12:19 | 00:12:23 | that you admire most in the world |
00:12:21 | 00:12:24 | you are no less capable than the people |
00:12:23 | 00:12:27 | that you look up to |
00:12:24 | 00:12:29 | most in the world and the reason being |
00:12:27 | 00:12:32 | is because you have something |
00:12:29 | 00:12:33 | that all of us have and it's called |
00:12:32 | 00:12:37 | human potential |
00:12:33 | 00:12:42 | and we can't exactly define |
00:12:37 | 00:12:45 | human potential because it is so |
00:12:42 | 00:12:47 | it's we don't know what it is it we |
00:12:45 | 00:12:49 | we don't know what the cap is on human |
00:12:47 | 00:12:51 | potential what humans are really capable |
00:12:49 | 00:12:55 | of there are things that were |
00:12:51 | 00:12:57 | said to not be possible in science |
00:12:55 | 00:12:58 | that are now being proven wrong and |
00:12:57 | 00:13:02 | humans are achieving them |
00:12:58 | 00:13:04 | for example uh you know wim hof |
00:13:02 | 00:13:05 | is a great example of this wim hof has |
00:13:04 | 00:13:09 | like 26 |
00:13:05 | 00:13:11 | world records i think and he's defied |
00:13:09 | 00:13:12 | the odds he's defied what science has |
00:13:11 | 00:13:15 | said to be |
00:13:12 | 00:13:16 | impossible and that's because he's used |
00:13:15 | 00:13:18 | his human potential in fact |
00:13:16 | 00:13:20 | speaking of wim hof guys if you are |
00:13:18 | 00:13:23 | struggling emotionally if you have |

00:14:16 | 00:14:20 | um now having said that uh you know |
00:14:19 | 00:14:23 | human potential |
00:14:20 | 00:14:24 | the thing about it is that you and i we |
00:14:23 | 00:14:26 | all have it |
00:14:24 | 00:14:27 | and we have so much of it but it's |
00:14:26 | 00:14:30 | harvested |
00:14:27 | 00:14:32 | we've harvested it within ourselves and |
00:14:30 | 00:14:35 | it's up to you to call |
00:14:32 | 00:14:36 | upon that human potential it's up to you |
00:14:35 | 00:14:39 | to |
00:14:36 | 00:14:40 | uh speak it out it's up to you to become |
00:14:39 | 00:14:42 | the leader |
00:14:40 | 00:14:43 | so you have this human potential within |
00:14:42 | 00:14:45 | you the same as everyone else |
00:14:43 | 00:14:47 | you were capable you were strong you |
00:14:45 | 00:14:50 | were intelligent |
00:14:47 | 00:14:53 | um but you have to call upon it |
00:14:50 | 00:14:54 | you have to use it okay so it's there |
00:14:53 | 00:14:56 | it's waiting |
00:14:54 | 00:14:58 | for you to use it but you have to take |
00:14:56 | 00:15:01 | action you have to take initiative |
00:14:58 | 00:15:02 | so during this time it's really a time |
00:15:01 | 00:15:05 | for you to step |
00:15:02 | 00:15:06 | up it's really a time for you to become |
00:15:05 | 00:15:09 | a leader |
00:15:06 | 00:15:10 | a leader is someone who creates |
00:15:09 | 00:15:13 | certainty |
00:15:10 | 00:15:15 | an environment where there is none a |
00:15:13 | 00:15:18 | leader is someone who has so much |
00:15:15 | 00:15:21 | certainty that they infuse it into |
00:15:18 | 00:15:22 | others and you have to become your own |
00:15:21 | 00:15:24 | leader |
00:15:22 | 00:15:26 | don't wait for anyone else to be leading |
00:15:24 | 00:15:28 | you take it upon |
00:15:26 | 00:15:29 | yourself because that is how you will |
00:15:28 | 00:15:31 | pull through this |
00:15:29 | 00:15:32 | and not only pull through it not only |
00:15:31 | 00:15:35 | get through it but get through it |
00:15:32 | 00:15:37 | better get through it by becoming a |
00:15:35 | 00:15:40 | better person than you were before |
00:15:37 | 00:15:42 | by growing by developing and if you're |
00:15:40 | 00:15:44 | not going to step into the role of |
00:15:42 | 00:15:45 | leadership for yourself then do it for |
00:15:44 | 00:15:47 | someone else because i'm sure that |
00:15:45 | 00:15:48 | there's someone else maybe your children |
00:15:47 | 00:15:50 | maybe your spouse |
00:15:48 | 00:15:53 | that really could use a leader in their |
00:15:50 | 00:15:55 | life right now who is maybe even |
00:15:53 | 00:15:56 | more emotionally broken down than you |
00:15:55 | 00:15:58 | who maybe has |
00:15:56 | 00:16:00 | uh is experiencing more pain than you |
00:15:58 | 00:16:01 | right now and really could use a leader |
00:16:00 | 00:16:02 | in their life |
00:16:01 | 00:16:04 | so if you're not going to do it for |
00:16:02 | 00:16:05 | yourself do it for others so step into |
00:16:04 | 00:16:08 | the role of |
00:16:05 | 00:16:11 | leadership because you are a leader and |
00:16:08 | 00:16:12 | when you are a leader then all of a |
00:16:11 | 00:16:14 | sudden you start to |
00:16:12 | 00:16:16 | behave differently you start to see |
00:16:14 | 00:16:18 | things differently |
00:16:16 | 00:16:20 | you're not waiting for the external to |
00:16:18 | 00:16:21 | tell you what to do |
00:16:20 | 00:16:23 | tell you where to go tell you where how |
00:16:21 | 00:16:24 | to behave tell you what to do with your |
00:16:23 | 00:16:27 | health no you're like |
00:16:24 | 00:16:28 | listen i'm the boss i'm in charge here |
00:16:27 | 00:16:31 | i'm the leader |
00:16:28 | 00:16:34 | i'm going to take responsibility and |
00:16:31 | 00:16:36 | in this circumstance what is the best |
00:16:34 | 00:16:37 | thing i can do for myself and for my |
00:16:36 | 00:16:40 | family |
00:16:37 | 00:16:42 | and you will |
00:16:40 | 00:16:45 | take on a different attitude right |
00:16:42 | 00:16:48 | because the strongest human emotion |
00:16:45 | 00:16:51 | is the need to stay consistent with the |
00:16:48 | 00:16:53 | identity that we give ourselves |
00:16:51 | 00:16:55 | and so if you identify yourself as a |
00:16:53 | 00:16:57 | leader |
00:16:55 | 00:16:59 | subconsciously your your your |
00:16:57 | 00:17:02 | subconscious mind will work |
00:16:59 | 00:17:02 | around the clock to stay consistent with |
00:17:02 | 00:17:04 | that |
00:17:02 | 00:17:06 | identity and so you're going to be |
00:17:04 | 00:17:07 | behaving differently it's no different |
00:17:06 | 00:17:10 | than if for example |
00:17:07 | 00:17:11 | you label yourself as a fitness a |
00:17:10 | 00:17:12 | fitness competitor |
00:17:11 | 00:17:14 | if you're a fitness competitor don't you |
00:17:12 | 00:17:16 | think that your behaviors |
00:17:14 | 00:17:18 | the actions you take will be different |
00:17:16 | 00:17:19 | than the average person |
00:17:18 | 00:17:21 | if your fitness if you identify as a |
00:17:19 | 00:17:23 | fitness competitor don't you think that |
00:17:21 | 00:17:24 | the foods that you eat the choices that |
00:17:23 | 00:17:26 | you make in the kitchen are going to be |
00:17:24 | 00:17:28 | different than the average person |
00:17:26 | 00:17:30 | don't you think that how consistently |
00:17:28 | 00:17:31 | you work out and the work is that you |
00:17:30 | 00:17:32 | have is going to be different than the |
00:17:31 | 00:17:33 | average person |
00:17:32 | 00:17:35 | sure they will be of course they will be |
00:17:33 | 00:17:37 | because it's the identity that you |
00:17:35 | 00:17:39 | create so identify yourself as a leader |
00:17:37 | 00:17:41 | and you will step into that role |
00:17:39 | 00:17:42 | and you will see things very differently |
00:17:41 | 00:17:44 | even though things may |
00:17:42 | 00:17:46 | still remain the same the facts are the |
00:17:44 | 00:17:48 | same the resources are the same the |
00:17:46 | 00:17:50 | environment is the same but you |
00:17:48 | 00:17:52 | will change and you will see things |
00:17:50 | 00:17:53 | differently and you'll be able to create |
00:17:52 | 00:17:55 | solutions |
00:17:53 | 00:17:58 | rather than seeing the problems okay and |
00:17:55 | 00:18:00 | that's a key thing is that right now |
00:17:58 | 00:18:02 | how you focus where your focus goes is |
00:18:00 | 00:18:04 | going to be a big determination |
00:18:02 | 00:18:05 | on your direction if you're focusing |
00:18:04 | 00:18:08 | just on what's wrong |
00:18:05 | 00:18:09 | and the problems and the chaos and the |
00:18:08 | 00:18:10 | pain |
00:18:09 | 00:18:12 | then well i mean that's what you're |
00:18:10 | 00:18:13 | going to be focusing on so that's what |
00:18:12 | 00:18:14 | you're going to see you're not going to |
00:18:13 | 00:18:16 | come up with solutions you're not going |
00:18:14 | 00:18:18 | to see the gift in anything |
00:18:16 | 00:18:19 | but if you can direct your focus to |
00:18:18 | 00:18:20 | something that's going to serve your |
00:18:19 | 00:18:23 | life |
00:18:20 | 00:18:25 | better and create better results for you |
00:18:23 | 00:18:27 | in your life and for that of your family |
00:18:25 | 00:18:29 | then i would argue that that's probably |
00:18:27 | 00:18:33 | the better option |
00:18:29 | 00:18:33 | now the last thing i will say is that |
00:18:34 | 00:18:43 | nobody wanted this pandemic this virus |
00:18:38 | 00:18:48 | it's been a mess it's been disastrous |
00:18:43 | 00:18:50 | um but what's wrong is always available |
00:18:48 | 00:18:52 | and so is what's right |
00:18:50 | 00:18:54 | what's wrong about covet 19 is always |
00:18:52 | 00:18:55 | available and you're going to be hearing |
00:18:54 | 00:18:58 | about it around the clock |
00:18:55 | 00:18:59 | from the news from the media from |
00:18:58 | 00:19:01 | friends and family |
00:18:59 | 00:19:03 | uh from strangers everyone's gonna tok |
00:19:01 | 00:19:06 | about how awful it is |
00:19:03 | 00:19:09 | okay but very few are going to be |
00:19:06 | 00:19:10 | toking about the blessings in it all in |
00:19:09 | 00:19:14 | the gifts |
00:19:10 | 00:19:16 | in in the great what what what was great |
00:19:14 | 00:19:19 | about this year |
00:19:16 | 00:19:20 | and so you have to make that choice yes |
00:19:19 | 00:19:21 | you want to |
00:19:20 | 00:19:22 | obviously you're not going to delude |
00:19:21 | 00:19:24 | yourself you're going to be able to see |
00:19:22 | 00:19:26 | the facts for what they are |
00:19:24 | 00:19:28 | but if you're going to see the facts you |
00:19:26 | 00:19:29 | better see the negatives as well as the |
00:19:28 | 00:19:30 | positive |
00:19:29 | 00:19:32 | positives because there's always a |
00:19:30 | 00:19:34 | duality where there's negative there's |
00:19:32 | 00:19:35 | positive when there is night there is |
00:19:34 | 00:19:36 | day |
00:19:35 | 00:19:38 | there's always a life is full of |
00:19:36 | 00:19:39 | dualities so if you |
00:19:38 | 00:19:42 | are trying to see the facts then see |
00:19:39 | 00:19:43 | both sides don't just be biased and see |
00:19:42 | 00:19:45 | the negatives |
00:19:43 | 00:19:46 | there are blessings in this and i don't |
00:19:45 | 00:19:48 | know what they are for you |
00:19:46 | 00:19:49 | but i can name a few off the top of my |
00:19:48 | 00:19:53 | head uh |
00:19:49 | 00:19:55 | covet 19 has been a year where |
00:19:53 | 00:19:58 | yeah we've been stuck inside but it's |
00:19:55 | 00:19:59 | been a great time to get to know who we |
00:19:58 | 00:20:00 | really are |
00:19:59 | 00:20:02 | it's been a great time to be |
00:20:00 | 00:20:05 | self-reflective |
00:20:02 | 00:20:06 | it's been a great time to to ponder to |
00:20:05 | 00:20:08 | ruminate |
00:20:06 | 00:20:10 | on our own thoughts to get to know what |
00:20:08 | 00:20:11 | it is that we want what it is that we |
00:20:10 | 00:20:12 | fear |
00:20:11 | 00:20:14 | if if you took the time to do that right |
00:20:12 | 00:20:16 | i know i sure did with all this extra |
00:20:14 | 00:20:18 | time not being able to go outside not |
00:20:16 | 00:20:20 | being able to do certain things being |
00:20:18 | 00:20:21 | alone at home with my thoughts it's been |
00:20:20 | 00:20:24 | a time to really |
00:20:21 | 00:20:24 | learn and develop it's been a time to |
00:20:24 | 00:20:28 | read |
00:20:24 | 00:20:31 | books and to develop skill sets |
00:20:28 | 00:20:32 | and to discover new things uh lim hof |
00:20:31 | 00:20:35 | breathing for example something i |
00:20:32 | 00:20:36 | discovered this year um it's been a time |
00:20:35 | 00:20:39 | for creativity |
00:20:36 | 00:20:42 | look at for example tiktok uh and how |
00:20:39 | 00:20:42 | creative people have been on tiktok i i |
00:20:42 | 00:20:44 | just |
00:20:42 | 00:20:46 | it blows my mind some of the things that |
00:20:44 | 00:20:47 | people come up with and i'm just so |
00:20:46 | 00:20:50 | inspired by it |
00:20:47 | 00:20:51 | how people are just looking for ways to |
00:20:50 | 00:20:53 | be entertaining |
00:20:51 | 00:20:54 | and to entertain themselves and tapping |
00:20:53 | 00:20:56 | in |
00:20:54 | 00:20:58 | to that human potential called |
00:20:56 | 00:20:59 | creativity that's part of your human |
00:20:58 | 00:21:03 | potential we all have it |
00:20:59 | 00:21:06 | you have to call upon it |
00:21:03 | 00:21:09 | and it's been a time for |
00:21:06 | 00:21:12 | opportunity there's been opportunity in |
00:21:09 | 00:21:15 | this you know if you lost your job |
00:21:12 | 00:21:17 | that may at the time have been the worst |
00:21:15 | 00:21:18 | possible thing that could ever happen to |
00:21:17 | 00:21:19 | you |
00:21:18 | 00:21:21 | especially when you have the |
00:21:19 | 00:21:25 | responsibility and burden |
00:21:21 | 00:21:28 | of taking care of a family |
00:21:25 | 00:21:29 | however maybe it was the biggest |
00:21:28 | 00:21:30 | blessing that god could have handed to |
00:21:29 | 00:21:32 | you |
00:21:30 | 00:21:33 | because maybe had you not lost your job |
00:21:32 | 00:21:35 | you would have spent the rest of your |
00:21:33 | 00:21:37 | life in that job |
00:21:35 | 00:21:38 | and if you did not love it if you were |
00:21:37 | 00:21:40 | not passionate about it you were not |
00:21:38 | 00:21:41 | fulfilled by that work |
00:21:40 | 00:21:43 | well that would lead to a very |
00:21:41 | 00:21:45 | unfulfilling life and so |
00:21:43 | 00:21:47 | maybe now that you have lost your job |
00:21:45 | 00:21:49 | you have your back up against the wall |
00:21:47 | 00:21:52 | and you are forced |
00:21:49 | 00:21:54 | to get creative to get resourceful to |
00:21:52 | 00:21:56 | figure out ways to make money to build |
00:21:54 | 00:21:58 | your own business |
00:21:56 | 00:21:59 | so maybe during the coven 19 pandemic |
00:21:58 | 00:22:00 | you started a business |
00:21:59 | 00:22:03 | and this business it's just getting |
00:22:00 | 00:22:05 | going but it is your tiket |
00:22:03 | 00:22:06 | to not only financial freedom but |
00:22:05 | 00:22:09 | freedom |
00:22:06 | 00:22:12 | freedom to not be a slave to your |
00:22:09 | 00:22:13 | nine-to-five job to not be a slave to |
00:22:12 | 00:22:15 | living |
00:22:13 | 00:22:16 | working doing something unfulfilling to |
00:22:15 | 00:22:20 | doing something that you actually |
00:22:16 | 00:22:21 | love it's been an opportunity for |
00:22:20 | 00:22:23 | investors |
00:22:21 | 00:22:24 | for people who are invested in the stok |
00:22:23 | 00:22:26 | market |
00:22:24 | 00:22:28 | i can say from experience i'm an |
00:22:26 | 00:22:29 | investor i invested when the stok |
00:22:28 | 00:22:33 | market crashed |
00:22:29 | 00:22:36 | february of 2020. i made a lot of money |
00:22:33 | 00:22:36 | so some people while the majority of |
00:22:36 | 00:22:38 | people |
00:22:36 | 00:22:40 | really lost money during this pandemic |
00:22:38 | 00:22:42 | losing their jobs |
00:22:40 | 00:22:44 | uh there are people who are investors |
00:22:42 | 00:22:46 | who took advantage |
00:22:44 | 00:22:47 | of the opportunity of the stok market |
00:22:46 | 00:22:49 | crashing |
00:22:47 | 00:22:50 | which is available to everyone ever |
00:22:49 | 00:22:54 | anyone can invest in the stok market |
00:22:50 | 00:22:56 | it's not limited to certain people |
00:22:54 | 00:22:57 | and so that was a massive opportunity to |
00:22:56 | 00:23:00 | create |
00:22:57 | 00:23:02 | wealth it's been an opportunity to grow |
00:23:00 | 00:23:04 | your relationship develop your |
00:23:02 | 00:23:06 | relationship with your children |
00:23:04 | 00:23:08 | with your spouse i know my relationship |
00:23:06 | 00:23:12 | with stefan has |
00:23:08 | 00:23:13 | gotten so much deeper and we've learned |
00:23:12 | 00:23:16 | to communicate |
00:23:13 | 00:23:18 | extremely effectively uh during this |
00:23:16 | 00:23:22 | covenant 19 we've spent |
00:23:18 | 00:23:23 | 24 7 together for many many months |
00:23:22 | 00:23:26 | and despite that our relationship has |
00:23:23 | 00:23:27 | grown not only our love for each other |
00:23:26 | 00:23:29 | but our passion |
00:23:27 | 00:23:32 | and most marriages don't end for a lack |
00:23:29 | 00:23:34 | of love they end for a lack of passion |
00:23:32 | 00:23:35 | so it's opportunity to develop that or |
00:23:34 | 00:23:37 | your relationship with your children |
00:23:35 | 00:23:39 | getting to know them |
00:23:37 | 00:23:40 | getting to play with them get to know |
00:23:39 | 00:23:42 | what they are |
00:23:40 | 00:23:43 | they love what they don't love maybe you |
00:23:42 | 00:23:45 | know before the cove edge you just |
00:23:43 | 00:23:48 | didn't have the time to be spending |
00:23:45 | 00:23:50 | quality time with your children you were |
00:23:48 | 00:23:51 | there but you were busy distracted |
00:23:50 | 00:23:53 | with work or with cooking or cleaning |
00:23:51 | 00:23:54 | whatever it may be |
00:23:53 | 00:23:56 | but now with kobe you have more than |
00:23:54 | 00:23:57 | enough time to just sit with your kids |
00:23:56 | 00:24:00 | and really |
00:23:57 | 00:24:02 | build a quality relationship with them |
00:24:00 | 00:24:04 | so |
00:24:02 | 00:24:06 | there are always gifts there are always |
00:24:04 | 00:24:09 | blessings |
00:24:06 | 00:24:12 | you have to look for them it's a choice |
00:24:09 | 00:24:16 | and most often we don't |
00:24:12 | 00:24:17 | look for them because uh we don't want |
00:24:16 | 00:24:21 | to we want to wallow |
00:24:17 | 00:24:24 | in our sadness or our self-pity |
00:24:21 | 00:24:26 | or because we feel guilty to at a time |
00:24:24 | 00:24:28 | like this be feeling positive |
00:24:26 | 00:24:30 | at a time like this be thriving at a |
00:24:28 | 00:24:32 | time like this be |
00:24:30 | 00:24:33 | successful you know we feel guilt about |
00:24:32 | 00:24:35 | that and |
00:24:33 | 00:24:37 | my answer to you is it's just drop the |
00:24:35 | 00:24:39 | guilt drop all of that because |
00:24:37 | 00:24:41 | what's most important right now is |
00:24:39 | 00:24:44 | taking care of yourself |
00:24:41 | 00:24:46 | and your family and that's really the |
00:24:44 | 00:24:48 | message i have for you today is just |
00:24:46 | 00:24:50 | make sure you take care of yourself |
00:24:48 | 00:24:52 | because |
00:24:50 | 00:24:53 | you know when you're you're on a plane |
00:24:52 | 00:24:55 | and you're you're taking a flight |
00:24:53 | 00:24:56 | uh what does the flight attendant say |
00:24:55 | 00:24:58 | the first thing they say and they do |
00:24:56 | 00:24:59 | this routine over and over again and you |
00:24:58 | 00:25:01 | you all know it |
00:24:59 | 00:25:04 | they say that in the event of an |
00:25:01 | 00:25:07 | emergency if the oxygen mass comes down |
00:25:04 | 00:25:08 | you need to put it on yourself first not |
00:25:07 | 00:25:10 | your child |
00:25:08 | 00:25:12 | you first and then your child you take |
00:25:10 | 00:25:15 | care of yourself first |
00:25:12 | 00:25:16 | why because if you don't take care of |
00:25:15 | 00:25:17 | yourself |
00:25:16 | 00:25:19 | then who's going to take care of your |
00:25:17 | 00:25:21 | child if you pass out who's going to |
00:25:19 | 00:25:24 | take care of your kid |
00:25:21 | 00:25:25 | so you're the priority and it's so easy |
00:25:24 | 00:25:27 | to |
00:25:25 | 00:25:28 | um put other people's needs above your |
00:25:27 | 00:25:30 | own and to |
00:25:28 | 00:25:33 | take care of everyone else and you come |
00:25:30 | 00:25:38 | last and it's a self-sacrificial |
00:25:33 | 00:25:40 | uh type of a thing and it's beautiful in |
00:25:38 | 00:25:43 | some ways but in many ways that is |
00:25:40 | 00:25:44 | is is is is only going to hurt everyone |
00:25:43 | 00:25:45 | else because if you're not taking care |
00:25:44 | 00:25:48 | of you |
00:25:45 | 00:25:52 | your emotional health your mental health |
00:25:48 | 00:25:52 | your physical health your |
00:25:53 | 00:25:57 | everything then you're not going to be |

00:25:57 | 00:25:59 | you love |
00:25:58 | 00:26:01 | you're not going to be the best version |
00:25:59 | 00:26:04 | of yourself and |
