The secret of the green smoothie is more than I have one for breakfast everyday. It is part of a process or ritual that I do to feed both my mind and body. My daily scale, you may have heard me refer to it as the ladder, is a morning process that I do to set my mind and body for upcoming day. It is not complicated, but it takes disciple to be committed to getting up at 5 am to work out.
Many of the listeners and followers on social media drink a version every day as well. I am happy that you are giving yourself green love every day. For those who have not made one before, I will tell how to make the perfect smoothie. I may say perfect because my sister Jenn, who has been having her own green smoothie almost every day for breakfast this year, said mine was better than hers.
I challenge you to take action - go make a green smoothie right now. If you do not love it, message me so we can talk about what you did possibly could not like.
Why do you refuse to let go of the thing that hurts or disempowers you?
Recently Jenn and I were at dinner where I ran into a friend who experienced a very emotional loss - her infant son died soon after childbirth. She started down a path to distract herself from her pain.
We all do that somewhere in our lives. We are holding on to this belief - which may cause us pain or suffering and is not giving you what you want because we are committed to it. It is preventing us from taking action to get results in our lives. With her and others, I have seen people just sit with pain and WANT a something different. WANTING will not change the situation.
We are arguing with reality. For my friend, she is arguing her son should be here and that she wants him here. It is very easy for us to be become stuck and not aware there is another choice?
Today I want you to write down what is the source or cause of your pain? Where are you fighting against reality? Can you see where the opposite belief and evidence agrees more with reality?
Awareness gives us the choice to stop believing in something that is hurting us.
Have you used the power of language to distinguish what others can not see?
I was doing the morning process with my declared sister working on spinal waves. Off in the distance she sees a mountain and tells me that she can see the face of an Indian Woman. I could not see anything. With language she distinguished exactly what she saw: a feather, her nose, her chin, her eyes.
We do that with ourselves and our own lives. There are versions of us in the distance - seemingly so far away that we do not see it. There is a version of you that you want to create more powerfully. A version of you that is strong across the board. You got stop and slow down a second. Take that version of YOU that is out there and break it down in categories. Ask yourself what precisely is success in those categories that would allow you to ideally SEE this version of you.
I challenge you to take ten minutes today to write down the various areas of your life and where you MUST be in 90 days out. What are you committed to and willing to track?
If you are listening to this podcast, you are serious from going from 10K to 20K to a month. I am talking to those who have hit 20K a month, but it is not your standard. You now are at your minimum standard. As I called you to action in the last podcast, look at what you are committed to right now - your home, your car, your salary.
To achieve 20K a month could require more work and struggle. Part of the issue is the way you are going about is not working. The other part is that you may be lost and have no idea what you do not know. Now is the time when you need to make a clear decision.
Are you ready to have an awareness where you are coming from in every conversation? I am talking about speaking things out loud, saying what you choose as an outcome. Does this sound obvious? Maybe but so many are not making that choice.
Once you have this awareness, everyone wins. Your customers win. You win. Your kids and spouse win because you are present. Your church wins. Even the guy who mows your lawn wins.

There are two kinds of writing that you can do, especially if you are attending a seminar, conference, journaling or writing down your thoughts.
The first is to make you feel good. It is very intellectual. It could be ideas you already know or things that make you feel good. In Jenn's case, she will be using the color blue. It was calming and passive. This type of writing is mostly a waste of time. Nothing wrong with it, just acknowledge it. Think consumption mode.
The second type of writing are things you MUST do. These will have numbers, dates, actions and typically have a check box next to them. Very simple did it happen or not. These are things you are committed to changing or implementing. For Jenn she decided to use the color red - writing them in blood. Think action mode.
If I had these pens and this distinction of what color I was writing in, that alone would allow me to move powerfully forward.
What are you committed to in the next 90 days? To help you visualize this activity, go stand outside your home, your workplace, your car or anywhere that represents your life. No shame or guilt - look at what you have been committed to in your life. Where is this compared to last year? Two years ago? Are you committed to making course corrections today to do this exercise next year but with a different view next year?
What color will you write down these commitments?
As promised, here is a version of Sting's "Shape of My Heart" but with lyrics that are more line with Me Being Me as a Key Player.
To me what it means, someone can be paid to pay the way how they to play. Be who they want to Be. Say what they want to say. And see themselves as who they want to be. We can exchange more value by being more of the real us. This is the whole message of Me Being Me.
What does this song mean to you? I would love to hear your thoughts on what those chords and new words mean to you. Look forward to talking to you soon.

It is a reminder that it is possible to get paid more to be WHO you are being anyway. Yes I am saying doing less things and creating more value. The things we want to do anyway. It comes down to our relationship with work and money. It is a very intertwined relationship. I would associate the productive thing would occur as the thing I did not want to do. Even as an adult, when I hear work, I do not want to do it.
My message today is brought to you curiosity of my kids. We are outside picking up rocks. In one sense this could be a very drudgeries task, but it is actually a learning one where we are having fun.
Normally the kids are the ones who get the landscape rocks into the grass. Today I did not get mad at my son Bode as he was throwing them into the grass. Who he is and what I created is that there is nothing about him is wrong, he is a perfect and innocent. So when he did the thing I did not want to do, I let him without getting mad. I did not let that sting of my ego get to me.
Who I am committed to being it the most loving creative and daddy on the planet. Who he is perfect. I hold off watching him. I asked my son what he was doing. I asked him if he could help me put the rocks back. Once he did, I showed him how grateful I was for his assistance. Low and behold, my other child sees this and comes over to help him. No longer is this a chore but something fun. With my son, I interacted with him as "he is" most perfect, lovable, angel human being. From his view, he would not try to do something wrong. He does not have a distinction of wrong. He is a blank slate and looking at rocks / grass.
As a child, my dad had me move rocks as a punishment. I knew I could do better, but it was work - not anything fun or playful. It start this process of resistance of the grind of doing hard work. To grind and sacrifice myself is love and it occurred as love.
Work is not love. Play is love. For me, playing the piano is play.
Reach out to me if you are interesting in playing and not working to be Paid More to Be You.
We all know too well that voice in our head can get so loud, filling us with self-doubt, telling us to play small, stay safe. It left unchecked, that voice starts to feel real. The story we tell ourselves is we are destined that this is my life -- to be sad, to be frustrated, to be depressed, to not apparently live the life we dream.
In this podcast, I will talk about The Scale system that shows you this version of you that operates the way you always wanted to but NEVER gave yourself permission to be so successful across the board. Me Being Me is living my life as an example of what is possible for others. As you hit The Scales and living your life more powerfully with integrity and congruence, you shine bright. People notice and see how powerful it is when each area of your life is woven together properly.
You can play inside the boundaries or be like a rock star and make music / life your very own.
As part of the Keys or the Scale, there are secrets I have figured out but have not shared on these podcasts to help you play this game, the ability to put a rock star face lift on your life. For those who listen, who want that rock style life face lift, who are tired of listening to that voice, I can help you design out your thing.
Once you have clarity, the momentum will build. It may be small and not noticeable that first week, but it builds upon itself. Within 12 weeks, you will look around and see a mini following. People who were already in your life, but you did not see them in that way.

Ever had that morning when you just could not get out of bed to face the tasks ahead of you?
"i" did not want to get up -- not the real me. I mean the me who I was thinking I was... the me who mis-identifies as himself as his body, his feelings and his thoughts. My body did NOT want to get up! The real me, the "I", wanted to get up, but my body hit snooze at 4:45 am without me even being conscious of it.
In these moments where I find myself waking up late, judging myself, regretting the mistake of not getting up when I intended and then procrastinating further by thinking about how big the task was ahead of me, I do not do very well.
We know what to do. We know what we ought to do. We know what is required. It is doing the action that puts you
Here is another trick the saying “It is just what I do” or “It’s just who I am” does not give you enough strength. We all have daily disciplines, but have you tried to break it down to smaller chunks? At times breaking it down hour to hour is great, but I am taking about really digging in when you may not have the capacity, the commitment or mental strength to do the next step.
On this morning, lying on the floor procrastinating, I stopped the voices in my head. I took the next action to get out to do my morning routine in those two seconds. I stood up! I was grateful that I was able to stand up. Guess what? I had created momentum. Breaking it down into the small steps in the immediate 10 seconds instead of the whole process, I was able to fight resistance. I built momentum with gratitude.
Remember the journey of Me Being Me is full of gems to accomplish what is required.
What tasks do you find yourself without the mental capacity or strength to complete? Have you tried to break it down in what you need to do in the very next few seconds. Reach out to me or leave a comment below.
My wife and I are attending a marriage class at the church. It seems a majority of the attendees seemed to be in this mindset that if one of them is connected to God and the other one isn't and is distancing themselves from God, then the two people really aren't going to be connected. I was confused by this. What really has a usefulness to me is understanding that God is pure consciousness, pure choice and, and the way that that applies in our lives is God is the ability to change our own mind, our own perspective. If the other one really is truly connected to God, then what is God? Let's say God is pure love, pure acceptance, pure understanding, nothing but pure forgiveness.
Imagine the worst, the most evil, vile, hurtful thing that you would never want to reveal about yourself to Christ, the Christ consciousness, and when you do that, you know you're thinking. I know that Christ is ultra-forgiving, he's ultra-loving and just, unconditional. You may be thinking this is so wrong, so, so dark. I doubt that he'll actually love me. I mean you are literally even doubting that if you did reveal that to Christ. Know there was never even a potential thought of him not accepting you and forgiving you and not loving you.
I'm committed for the rest of my life to live this perspective here, I'm committed to being connected with Christ consciousness and shifting how I see anyone else's actions around me, seeing it from a place of conditional forgiveness, understanding acceptance of how they are and how they're not and, and I need nothing from them in order for me to be happy or be anyway, and that is the best definition of being connected to God, that I can possibly imagine right now.
Join me as discuss this in greater depth as I continue my journey of Me Being Me.
