Hey, good morning, good afternoon, good evening. This is your life. This is your chance. Listen.

The word for today is hypocrite, and we’re laying it to rest [squeaky casket slam]. Have you ever called someone a hypocrite? How did it go? I’m guessing not well, because as soon as someone smells the word hypocrite, steel-plated, self-protective walls go up. Further complicating the situation, is the fact that they can throw the word right back at you. We’re all hypocritical in some area of life. Rather than calling someone a hypocrite, let them lovingly know that you sense a mismatch between their words and their actions. I’m sure that there will still be some defensiveness, but I think you’ll ultimately get further in helping them change their behavior.

Today’s concrete challenge is to do some soul searching. Write down two areas or practices in your life where there’s a mismatch between what you say or how you present yourself and what you actually do.

Use the next few minutes of this podcast to get it done. I’ll keep the music playing while you do, and don’t miss the soundtrack at the end of this episode.

Before you go, repeat the following soundtrack, “I am the kind of person who acknowledges my own faults.”

Let me know if this made a difference in your day by leaving a comment in your podcast app or at concrete.win/today.

Check back tomorrow for a new challenge. Until then.
