How to switch course.

Hi I'm Brian Pombo, welcome back to Brian J. Pombo Live.

One of the things that I've learned how to do through the years is how to be flexible, and how to switch course without feeling defeated. And that's a really important thing to learn how to do, especially if you're a business owner, if you're an executive, you're someone who's in charge of getting things done and moving things and kind of charting course, on where you go next out.

I'll give you an example, you know, in previous videos, we've discussed my experimentation's with caffeine. So I grew up very young age, drinking coffee, and through the years became more and more of a coffee of a daily coffee drinker.

And that lasted all the way until, well, this would have been, would this have been earlier this year, well, this was early, earlier last year, in 2020, when out of nowhere, it just kind of it just kind of caught me that I've have never gone a long period of time without having coffee.

So I went through this whole experiment where I stopped drinking coffee altogether for a while. And besides the handful of days, that you got to deal with the, the all the withdrawals, all the headaches and everything else. And then you know, getting back, kind of get your energy balanced again. Once that was over, I felt a lot more mellow, in general, and very calm and I really liked it.

What I do is I started bringing coffee back on for like one day a week and like that one day having that be like the power data to get the last bit of done for the week and so forth and it worked out really well.

I'm not completely against caffeine, I'm not completely against coffee at all, what ended up happening is I have a business that I I work with that produced a healthy type of coffee, and it was meant to be a weight loss thing. And one of the things that I noticed as soon as I got off coffee is I gained about 10 pounds, just a change in metabolism, just a slight change.

It didn't change anything else about my lifestyle, just stopped drinking coffee, and I gained weight. So I said, Well, I wonder if I can if I can lose some weight by drinking some healthy coffee.

So I went back and started drinking coffee on a daily basis again, and I handle it better than I used to. I think it's probably the type of coffee that I'm drinking about more healthier style coffee that promotes weight loss and everything else. And I've been happy with it.

Well, I may go back one day to just drink in a couple week type of thing and see and see where that goes.

But right now I'm back back on the coffee wagon, I guess you could say more off the wagon, I don't know which one it is. I say all that it is kind of wrap up that storyline for those of you who have been around a while. And to discuss that. You have to allow yourself the flexibility to move to go where you need to go and try things out and not necessarily commit to any one thing.

And this brings me to another story along the same lines and with the same thing of coffee. One of the things that I've done through the years is I've collected coffee cups, not that I have this intense collection.

But it's one of those things that nowadays you can find a coffee cup about just about anything. And when when I traveled a lot,
