Welcome back to another episode of The MVMNT! 

If you want to get straight to the meat and potatoes of the episode, skip ahead to minute 34!

On CHT episodes we like to lay back and chat about random things that come to mind. We still have a main topic we discuss on every episode, but CHT episodes take a little longer to get to the point just because there isn't a script and we tend to ramble a bit. Sue us. 

Main topic for today is deserving what you tolerate. You just don't deserve what you work for. You definitely don't deserver what you don't work for. You deserve what you tolerate. You deserve exactly what you "put up" with on a daily basis. What does that even mean? We've all been frustrated with different things. Whether it be a job (not getting paid what we feel we deserve), a relationship (not getting the treatment or effort we feel we deserve) or anything else that happens in life. Have you ever stopped to think that YOU are the reason you continue to go through it? It's not someone else's fault that they aren't living up to YOUR expectations. Just like you, they have expectations of their own. Or, in some instances, they have no expectations. Who are you to cast your expectations on someone else who lives a completely different life and has completely different goals and priorities than you? Realize how selfish it is of you to cast your wants and "needs" onto someone else who doesn't see things the way you do. 

Let's be completely clear - your lack of standards is why you are where you are. If you think you deserve more pay, speak up and take action. If you think you deserve more out of a relationship, speak up and take action. We get it, it's not an easy thing to do. But unless you are willing to have hard conversations, you will stay exactly where you are. And those people who are in control of meeting your expectations may not agree with you. That's ok, too! You have complete control whether you continue to stay where you are and "put up" with your current situation, or move on and find something / someone who will meet your standards. Take responsibility for where you are right now. Stop blaming others for your unhappiness and frustration. Hold yourself accountable to the standards that you have in life. They are YOUR standards. If someone is not living up to those standards, you have to be willing to make a change. They will not always be easy changes to make, but you gotta be ok with that if you truly want to get to where you say you want to get.

We hope y'all enjoy the episode! If you get any value out of it, please give us a rating, review, and / or share it to your story or with someone who comes to mind!
