Welcome to another captivating episode of the Out-Front Podcast! I'm thrilled to have you join us today as we delve into a profound concept that has the power to transform lives: doing the work on yourself.

For those familiar with our discussions, you know that I frequently stress the importance of this practice. It's no secret – true growth and self-development demand more than just passive participation. It requires a relentless dedication to facing our challenges head-on, a commitment to growth, and a willingness to put in the effort.

"Doing the work" has become somewhat of a mantra for me, echoing the belief that meaningful progress is not handed to us on a silver platter but is the result of active engagement and dedication. It's about keeping it real – acknowledging where we currently stand while envisioning where we aspire to be.

But here's the kicker: the work that needs to be done? It's uniquely yours. No one else can do it for you. Only you hold the key to bridging the gap between where you are and where you want to be.

So, buckle up and get ready to explore what it truly means to do the work on yourself and how this journey of self-discovery can profoundly impact our lives. Get ready to roll up your sleeves and dive deep into the transformative power of personal growth. Let's embark on this journey together!

What does it truly entail and more importantly, ah, you know what it truly entails and how can it profoundly change our lives for those who are familiar with me. You know it's no secret that I frequently emphasize the importance of putting in the work I firmly believe that true growth and self-development requires effort dedication and willingness to confront our challenges head on. You got to do the work. You know you got to do the work has become somewhat of a mantra for me echoing a sentiment that meaningful progress is an aspect of life necessities, active engagement and commitment. Keep you real the realization of where you are and where you desire to be required work that only you can do only you can do? What must be done to close that gap from where you are.

01:29.66

noblemen

To where you desire to behave, I would tell you that through my own journey and interactions with others I've come to realize that many people may not fully grasp what the work entails. Or where to begin on their path of so of this self-development. It's not enough to simply acknowledge that you know the need for change or improvement. 1 must also have the twos strategies and support system. In place to facilitate their growth so without a clear understanding of what the work looks like and how to approach it individuals may find themselves feeling overwhelmed stuck or unsure. Of how to move forward so considering this ah realization I've come I've become considering this realization I've become increasingly passionate about demystifying the concept of the work. And providing guidance and resources to support others on their journey of personal development whether it's to sharing my own experiences offering practical advice or connecting individuals were relevant to and resources.

03:02.56

noblemen

I strive to empower others to take meaningful steps towards their goals by breaking down the barriers to self-improvement and offering a road map for progress I hope to inspire. That's what I really hope to do I hope to inspire and support others in their pursuit of growth and fulfillment. So today. We certainly have a lot to unpack on this show. So, let's go so today we certainly have a lot to unpack in this episode. So, let's go.

03:42.94

noblemen

Doing the work isn't just a catchphrase. It's a profound commitment to your own evolution. It's about diving deep into the depths of your being confronting your darkest shadows. And embracing the light within. It's a courageous journey of self-reflection self-awareness and Self-love to bring about the healing that is necessary the healing that is necessary to move forward in whatever your endeavors may be. And here here's the thing no matter how old you are or the level of your attainment. There is still some level of work that remains in all of us within the circle of life. You know I've always said that healing. It is a prerequisite. However, it's often continuous and healing is a journey of progress. Not perfection I think I have to say that again healing is a journey of progress. Not Perfection. You know in the in the in the intricate in the intricate tapestry of human existence healing is a thread that weaves its way through the fabric of our lives. It's a journey marked with twist and turns right and so.

05:17.42

noblemen

Progress and setback progress and setback progress and setback. But ultimately, it's a progress guided. But ultimately, it's a prospect but ultimately. It's a process guided by resiliency and perseverance in the intricate in the intricate tapestry in the intricate tapestry of human existence healing is a thread that weaves its way through the fabric of our lives. It is a journey marked with twist and turns progress and setback progress and setback progress and setback. But ultimately it is a process guided by resilience and perseverance. Yes, healing at its core is not about achieving perfection rather it is about embracing the imperfections of our journey and finding growth amidst the challenges there will be challenges. So, the concept of healing as a process acknowledges that it is not a linear path with a clear beginning and an end instead. It is a dynamic journey that Unfolds over time.

06:49.94

noblemen

Shaped by our experience emotions and relationships just as a womb takes time to heal emotional and psychological healing require patience and nurturing. So. 1 of the fundamental aspects of healing is self-compassion. You know this is an area I really must learn on my own for myself that healing is self-compassion it involves. Extending kindness and understanding to ourselves as we navigate the ups and downs of our healing journey. You know often we are often we are our heart often. We are often. We are our hardest critics expecting profession often. We are our hardest critics expecting perfection or instant results again. As I said this is the area that I had to learn. Personally, for myself that we are often our hardest critics expecting perfection or instant results have a true healing requires us to be gentle with ourselves.

08:22.35

noblemen

Acknowledging our progress, no matter how small and accepting the setbacks accepting and accepting that setbacks are a natural part of the process. So, listen today. My brother My sister's setbacks are a natural part of the process I'll say that again and again setbacks are a natural part of the process. However, healing is not a solitary Endeavor. It is deeply intertwined with our connections to others and then whatever those supportive relationships can provide. Whatever they can when they win and whenever they can provide comfort at some time validation and a sense of belonging all of which are essential for healing to occur whether it is. Whether it's the embrace of a loved one. The empathy of a friend or the guidance of a therapist is the supportive of others can help us navigate the complexities of our healing journey.

09:54.98

noblemen

Furthermore, healing is about finding meaningful and purpose in our experience. It involves reflecting on our pain understanding its impact on our lives and using it as a catalyst. For growth and transformation. So other words adversity can be a powerful teacher offering valuable lessons about resilience, empathy and the strength of the human spirit. These are areas that oftentimes we don't deal with first we move from. We try to you know move from one stage of life to the next stage of life without dealing with all our stuff and oftentimes it will. It'll all come crashing down. When we're trying to build and move from one stage of life to the next and we can't quite figure it out because we haven't dealt with all the other stuff prior to moving on. So, embracing the process of healing also requires vulnerability it means allowing ourselves to feel deeply to It's okay to feel emotional and deeply to confront our fears and our insecurities.

11:25.20

noblemen

And to open ourselves back up to the possibilities of change. This vulnerability is not a sign of weakness. It's so me depending on where you come for our most brothers. You know its vulnerabilities is a sign. Of our weakness but the truth is vulnerability is not a sign of weakness but rather a testament to our courage and our willingness to embrace our humanity. That's true so in in in Essence. Healing is this multifaceted journey that encompasses emotional psychological and spiritual growth. It is about finding peace amidst Chaos Strength amidst, vulnerability and growth. Ah, monthst adversity is a process that Unfolds over time shaped by our willingness to embrace imper perfection to cultivate self-compassion to nurture supportive relationships. Finding meaningful finding meaning in our experience and embrace vulnerability as we navigate the twist and turns of our healing journey. Let us remember that is not about reaching some.

13:00.96

noblemen

Exclusive state of perfection but rather about embracing the beauty of our imperfect yet resilient self. It's about honoring the progress as we make and take the steps. Matter how small and we find silence in the knowledge that healing is a journey not a destination. So oftentimes. We don't deal with these sorts of things or come to facing things that we must face as we move from one stage of life to the next. We just try to keep building and keep moving but we would understand that these are areas that we must begin to uncover as we move. But 1 stage or life to the next and that's unearthing our core wounds and traumas as we try to build right? We just been taught keep building keep building. Forget about that stuff stack it away deal with it.

14:28.77

noblemen

Suck it up, but as we try to build these are foundational. You must think about this as something that's foundational. You must deal with to begin to really build the structure that you need to build is stable and sturdy enough. That's resilient enough when winds of adversity begin to blow unearthing. Core rooms and trauma is not a good thing so to truly do the work as I said you got to do the work. You got to do the work this preparing yourself to do the work this is preparing you to do the work to truly do the work. Had to first excavate all the core wounds and traumas and at some point, you must pull out all the hidden bags of triggers. The bags of shit that set you off the emotional shit and the and the. Stuff that kind of make you react in a way that you don't like to react, but you end up reacting anyway, pull it all out pull all pull it all out. You must pull it all out and sit in the discomfort of it.

15:59.79

noblemen

These are the buried treasures of our psyche hidden beneath layers of conditioning and societal expectations and Trump all that stuff take time to explore the origins of your deepest pains. Ah, wounds that still bleed beneath the surface set aside dedicated time each day for introspection journaling meditating and therapy can all be powerful tos. For excavating buried traumas and wounds as we build again. I'll keep referring to what I say at in the beginning you got to do the work. I'm always talking about I mean you got to do the work and the truth is again as I said this is very much a part of doing the work as you begin to build, and you are no longer. Attempt to move from one stage of life to the next stage of life and building without doing the work of dealing with all the underneath stuff before you begin to build.

17:29.57

noblemen

So, you got to set some time you got to set aside some time to really dedicate to dealing with this and sometimes it's reparenting the inner child I found out even I had some pretty good parents. We grew up In. And in the pretty well out middle class neighborhood I Guess I'll fall for what is worth I guess for what worth socioeconomic background or condition it was not. All that bad but in my adult life. There were some things that I discovered that I had to sort of go back and what I would call reparenting the inner child in me. There were some periods in my life where I had to go back and reparent my inner child. So reparenting is that sacred act of nurturing and healing your inner child. The innocent. Wounded aspect of yourself that yarns for love and acceptance whatever that may be. It's about becoming you know that loving parent. You may have or may not have had or offering yourself a compassion.

19:00.80

noblemen

And tenderness that you felt you deserve so create a daily self-care ritual for nourishing your inner child at times this could include affirmations visualization exercises or simply speaking to yourself. Kindness and gentleness whatever that may be. This is a part of doing the work and it leads to transforming relationships through your healing. All relationships personal business. Whatever that relationship is it all just doing this type of work all impacts in a very positive way as you transform relationships through your healing. And understand this many of us never get there So This may be a conversation that many individuals are quite not used to having you transforming through that level of healing. As we do the work on ourselves. Our relationships naturally begin to transform you know they no longer. Are you know, no longer are we bound by old patterns of co-dependencies or seeking validation from others instead.

20:32.61

noblemen

We Cultivate relationships based on Authenticity Mutual respect and unconditional. Love. So, practice self so practice setting healthy boundaries in your relationships. And communicating your needs acceptability practice setting healthy boundaries in your relationships and communicate your needs assertively and you surround yourself with individuals who honor. Your journey of healing and support your growth you see when we set healthy boundaries are simply to keep things out but rather. Boundaries are not simply to keep things out but rather to protect what's on the inside that the inside work that you must do the inside where you do must. Be protected at all costs the inside work that you do must be protected at all costs and you do that by setting boundaries and oftentimes the.

22:04.10

noblemen

Boundaries that you set is to protect. What's on the inside.

22:17.92

noblemen

Um, doing the work is not a destination. It's a life learned journey of Self-discovery and self-actualization. It's about embracing. It's about embracing the full spectrum. Who you are. The light and the shadow and integrating all aspects of ourselves with love and Acceptance. So, I say commit to ongoing self-exploration and growth seek out books and workshops. And communities that resonate with your journey of healing and transformation and remember you are worthy of the deepest love and the highest potential. So, listen, thank you all for joining me today. So, listen. Thank you all for joining me on this transformation Journey of Self-discovery Remember the power of change lies within you until next time keep doing the work and shining your light in the world.

In this episode, we delve into the transformative power of resilience and belief in the face of doubt. It's a reminder to all listeners that amidst challenges and uncertainties, maintaining unwavering faith in oneself can be the catalyst for achieving one's aspirations. The journey of manifesting isn't just about materializing dreams; it's a profound voyage of self-discovery and growth. By nurturing a steadfast belief in our abilities, we can turn even our most audacious visions into tangible realities.

Manifesting isn't merely a theoretical concept—it's a holistic approach to life. It involves aligning our thoughts, actions, and energy with our deepest desires, and then diligently working towards them. This process requires self-awareness, setting clear goals, taking consistent action, and embracing both challenges and opportunities along the way. Ultimately, it all boils down to believing in oneself. As the host shares personal experiences, listeners are encouraged to embrace the transformative power of manifesting as a way of life—a journey that empowers individuals to create the life of their dreams.

00:01.59

Hello everyone and welcome to another exciting episode of the out-front podcast I am your host Vince Noble. So, listen I've been saying that the first half of this year we would bring to you. Topics that I truly believe will grab hold of you in a way that will continue to empower you and inspire you to take charge of your life propelling you. To the next level like rocket field in 2024 and so I don't care who you are. There should always be a next level of something in your life. Another dimension of living. I don't care what your grade age or stage is in life. There should be something that you are ambitious enough about to take your life to the next level. So, I believe that. The first six months of this year as we've been saying will be a tremendous amount of value to many of you that listen to um, you know our podcast on a weekly basis because I believe the moment you decide.

01:33.32

That living your life on one level is no longer good enough. You've already began to spark the desire to change, and I would tell you that there is often so much generational trauma to contend with. And so, our capacity to mold and transform our reality is primarily constrained by the subconscious barriers we erect within ourselves. Why is this the case I believe it for the most part. It's often because our negative outlook is rooted in experiences of trauma and abuse and so many of us have yet to fully comprehend. Articulate and transcend these painful events and so we tend to normalize our stress responses and without addressing the underlying issue. We remain stuck unable. Progress and so you must be willing to do all the inner work. First that's right in large part. It's the inside game. So today. We're going to explore.

03:05.91

Some key concepts of unleashing your manifesting power now wait a minute I understand that oftentimes when it is mentioning manifesting or. Manifesting abilities. Most people tend to back away because I believe that this concept or this thing or this theory of manifesting has been somewhat underrepresented if you will. But we're not just going to talk about it as far off, but we're not just going to talk about it as a far-off mystical idea. We're going to discuss how manifesting is a way of life and how you can take real actionable steps. To make it work for you. So, grab a pen in the pad because we're diving deep into the art of manifesting in today's show let's go so let's kick off. You know this journey by dispelling a common. Misconception of about manifesting is it. It isn't manifesting isn't some mystical concept reserve for a select few but it is a potent tool accessible.

04:36.95

Anyone willing to tap into its power and so I'm not just preaching theory here I'm speaking from lived experience manifesting is about aligning your thoughts actions and energy with your desires to bring into. Reality manifesting is about aligning your thoughts actions and energy with your desires to bring them into Reality. It's about more than wishful thinking. It's about deliberate intention and unwavering belief. And your ability to shape your reality and so the cornerstone of manifesting lies in a fundamental mindset Shift. You must be willing to do a mindset Shift. You must move from a fixed Fix. You must Move. Ah, you must move away from a fixed mindset which limits your potential and embrace a growth Mindset. You see a growth mindset. Thrives on continuous learning resilience and the belief that your abilities can be developed through dedication and effort this shift in Mindset sets the stage for manifesting success.

06:12.63

And so, the first requirement I believe and entering this area of manifesting in your life number one is self-awareness see Self-awareness is the bedrock upon which. Manifesting stance its stands on your self-awareness of who you are. It's understanding your strengths your weaknesses and aspirations. That's that crucial and so. Take time to you know I would say take time I would say take the time to really clarify first and foremost your goals write them down number one write them down. Be concise and be specific and then chart a course towards their attainment. Yes, take the time to clarify your goals write them down. Be concise and specific and chart a course towards their attainment. You see this self-awareness provides the foundation it provides.

07:42.58

It provides the foundation manifesting. It provides the foundation of your manifesting journey guiding. It provides the foundation of your manifesting journey guiding you towards a life aligned with you. Deepest desires. So, take the time to reflect on what you write start today write it down. What are your desires and then over the course of the next few days take time to really begin. To reflect every one of us should take time throughout the course of our day to reflect doesn't matter who you are it doesn't matter how accomplished you may think you are we should all. Spending a certain portion of our day reflecting. So, I encourage you take the time to reflect on what you write. Become intimately as 1 mind body and soul with what it is you write, and you desire, and you manifest that's the foundation of your manifesting journey and so have the.

09:14.13

Courage to dream big take the breaks off when you're when you're writing down your desires and you reflecting on no desires take the breaks off. Don't hold back dream big. You see have you ever followed someone uphill with their brakes on you following you're driving along and you following someone uphill with their brakes on and it's apparently nothing visibly in front of them, yet they are driving uphill. With their breaks on. So, I tell you today take the brakes off dream big and set your sights on the life you envision for yourself. You see the question is. What do you see yourself? What do you see for yourself. You must dare to believe, and you own it when you dare enough to believe it then you own it you see manifesting is about. Tapping into the boundless power of your imagination and daring to dream beyond the confines of your current reality I have to say that again you see manifesting.

10:45.21

Is about tapping into the boundless power of your imagination and daring and daring to dream beyond the confines of your current reality beyond what you're seeing. Beyond any negativity you may be encountering beyond the often-negative self-take beyond any of that you have to dare to go beyond that so take the breaks off. And again, write down your goals craft a vivid vision of success. What does that? What does it look like you're you know what it looks like step by step by step be very specific and when you do that. It's. It will ignite the flames of ambition within you. You see some of us we have been so conditioned with the world. We have allowed our ambitions to be very low. We're living a life with very low ambition. So, I'll say to you today ignite reignite the flames of ambition within you and remember no dream is too grand when Feud with when Feud remember.

12:18.85

No Dream is too grand when fueled by unwavering determination and a clear road map to guide your steps. It is crucial to move past the restrictive Beliefs The pessimistic. Viewpoints and critical inner Dialogue oftentimes. It's our own critical inner dialogue that's holding us back that often plague our thought life our tendencies to. Dwell on with past negative experiences and people can significantly hinder our progress towards our objectives see these mental barriers can distort our perceptions. Of our abilities and potential leading us to underestimate what we are truly capable of Achieving. So, I say to you my friend to unlock our full Potential. We must actively. Challenge and reframe the limiting narratives. We hold about ourselves by recognizing that These beliefs are not inherent truths but rather subjective interpretations.

13:50.80

Of past events we can begin to question and modify our thought patterns shifting our focus from what has gone wrong to what we can do right? and so now. To create a positive change is essential for personal growth and accomplishment I can't believe you how many times I share this with people across this nation with people across the world and they say Vance I never. And never heard this before I never had anyone spend time with me making this clear to me. It's been me. It's been me allowing my negative. Experiences to get in a way to cloud my perceptions about what I'm truly capable of doing. It's been me. You see self-awareness plays a pivotal role in overcoming the self-imposed constraints of our mindsets by cultivating a deeper understanding of where our negative.

15:23.82

Beliefs originate in how they affect our behavior. We can start to dismantle them. Yes, we can begin to dismantle them replacing self- doubt with self-compassion and negative Self-ta. With affirmations that emphasize our strength and resilience can lay the groundwork for a more optimistic and proactive approach to our life see no one would argue with me today. This is needed or this conversation is needed by so many I don't care where you are you must be able to get to a point where you understand this. And so, another key aspect of transcending these mental hurdles is embracing as I previously said a growth mindset. This this perspective encourages us to view challenges as opportunities to learn and grow rather than in or an insurmountable rather than insurmountable.

16:52.57

Another key aspect of transcending these mental hurdles is embracing as I previously said a growth mindset this perspective encourages us to view challenges as opportunities to learn and grow. Rather than insurmountable obstacles. It teaches us to appreciate the journey of self-improvement. To persist in the face of setbacks and to see failure. Not as a reflection of our worth., But as a natural step in the learning process. Ultimately. Changing the way, we think about ourselves, and our experiences is an ongoing process that requires patience and persistence involves consistently practicing Mindfulness. Challenge Our negative thoughts and seeking out experienced mentors along the way. Yes, and so empowering these new.

18:22.80

Beliefs We can do this by doing so you see it involves consistently practicing Mindfulness Channel It involves consistently practicing. Mindfulness challenging our negative thoughts and seeking out experience that reinforce our new empowering beliefs by doing so we can break free from the patterns that keep us. From achieving our goals and create a life that reflects our chew capabilities and desires. Yes, and so make no mistake about it Manifesting is. Make no mistake about it Manifesting isn't a passive endeavor it demands unwavering commitment and consistent Action. You see the Universe rewards. Those who take deliberate steps towards they goes did you know that I believe in all my heart that the universe reward those who take deliberate steps who overcome who remain resilient who.

19:57.26

Who defeat all the negative self-talk the universe rewards those who take deliberate steps towards their goals. They stay focused take consistent action. And embrace the journey with unyielding determination. There are no shortcuts on the path. There are no shortcuts on the path to manifesting success but with patience and dedication. You can turn your dreams into tangible. Realities yes, challenges are challenges and setbacks are inevitable. It's going to happen so on this road to manifesting success. However, I tell you it is crucial to adopt. A mindset that views obstacles as opportunities for growth. So, embrace it embrace a no excuse attitude today embrace a no excuse attitude today embrace. a no excuse attitude today. embrace a no excuse attitude today it boils down to how bad do you want it? are you willing to let it go.

21:31.31

When it doesn't look like it's going to work out or you would' to let it go when it looks like it's not going to happen what type of excuses. Do you have or will you embrace a no excuse attitude when it doesn't look good. That every setback propels you forward rather than hold you back and again seek out mentors and supportive communities to guide you through challenges and bolster your resilience on the path to manifesting. Greatness, see I want a link up for you I know that someone listened to this podcast today saying I've been trying to link up with someone I've been linking up with people before and when it gets bad for me.

Hello everyone and welcome to the out-front podcast I am your host Vince Noble, hey listen today I want to dive into a topic that I believe separates the real warriors. From the wishful thinkers. You know so much needs to be said in our society today about staying focused I mean it's like staying laser focused and committed. To the things you should be committed to or focused on amidst the chaos and distractions in our world today. You know a lot of people say to me Vince man I'm having a tough time I'm having a hard time. Ah, staying focused I having a hard time sleeping at night I can't focus the way I should and these doctors you know these doctors you know all they do is recommend some sort of medication. There has to be a better prescription. You know, then the mads and so I would say first you know this year in 2024 um, and none of that new year motivational stuff were really stick and work.

01:29.67

noblemen

I would say beyond the spring if you had a hard time focusing and staying motivated in a way. Um, you know this 2024 New Year knew you. Motivational stuff probably won't even work for you. You won't be able to sustain that that's a fact so the first thing I would say to you know this year whatever you should be or thinking about focus on or whatever you set. At the beginning of year that you want to accomplish just stop talking about it. Don't even say what you're going to do just get in a mode just get in the mode of just doing it just doing the thing that you know you should be doing start out doing that. And then you prove it not only to everyone else you prove it to yourself. You prove that you are willing to get there by doing the necessary work. That's right? No, no sugar coating here. Folks. You know there's a there's a bit of shift here on the out front for the rest of the year actually - that there will be a little bit of a shift here. So, get ready for some raw uncut truth. That's right, get ready for some raw.

Uncut Truth we have a lot to unpack in this episode. So, let's go what's up. Our front nation. Can you handle me being as I said in the beginning can you handle me being. A little rough around the edges today can we get real today. No matter who you are life throw distractions at us left and right but if you're serious about crushing your goals. This year you've got to be ruthless in your focus. So today I'm hitting you with 5 harsh no-nonsense steps to keep your eyes on the prize to help you follow 1 course until success. That's right, follow 1 course until successful as focus. So, you know when I think about being focused, I am often when I think about focus, I think about being. Hyper focus and you know that hyper focus is a term often used to describe an intense state or concentration of focus on a particular task or subject for an extended period.

04:34.72

noblemen

When someone is experiencing hyperfocus they are able to block out distractions and become deeply absorbed in what they are doing often to the exclusion of other tasks. Delma or even the most important people that's right, that's right other people you see this state of heightened attention can lead to increased productivity. And the ability to accomplish a great deal within a relatively short period of time so number one I would say to you slash and burn those to do list that you did at the beginning of the year just slash and burn them because we are getting ready. early this year for some spring cleanup. We're doing some serious spring cleanup on that to do list to start with no more fluff. No more time-wasting tasks. So just slash and burn. Everything. That doesn't contribute directly to the goals in which you said you wanted to accomplish this year if it's not pushing you forward. It's holding you back. So, it's time to be brutally honest about.

06:03.50

noblemen

Where your time is going where are you allocating your time. What are you still wasting your time On. Let's be honest and you start being honest with yourself. What are you still allocating your time to that doesn't. Support your goals because again, if it's if it's not pushing you forward. It's holding you Back. So, I need you to seriously think about. The things you're still wasting your time on that that the things that that that you're still giving your attention to so you're still wasting your time on that thing that don't even support your goals are they habits. But what activities are you doing or are the man-made intentional distractions that consistently pull your way from what you truly want to achieve you see my friend most distractions. Are intentional. They serve an intended purpose. They are very intentional to pull your way. So why aren't you more intentional. Why aren't you more intentional with the thing that you want to accomplish in your own life. You see. It's crucial.

07:32.76

noblemen

For you to identify time wasting elements and take proactive steps to minimize or eliminate them from your life whether it's excessive social media just scrolling around on the internet YouTube procrastination. Or engaging in unproductive conversations with other folks that doesn't really amount to anything come on God we got to be honest with ourselves this year so recognizing these time sinks is the first step towards regaining control. Over your focus and your energy are you willing to do that because if you're not willing to do that. You're not taking the necessary first steps towards regaining control over your focus and your energy by consciously. Reallocating your time and attention to activities that align with your goals see. It's about alignment most of the time we're just out of alignment and we don't even have a clue so by consciously now reallocating your time. And attention to activities that align with your goals. There has to align with your goals until you do that you can't pave the way for greater productivity and progress.

09:09.63

Ah, fact, remember your time is valuable and oftentimes you have to train other people in a way How to value your time. Your time is valuable so we should use it wisely to support our aspirations in a way and our ambitions. You know that's not that's not being selfish, but you don't. Waste anyone's time and you won't allow your time to be wasted with things that really don't amount to anything and those things that take you further and further and further away to that which you said you want to Accomplish. You see your time is one of those commodities. You'll never get back once. It's Gone. You never get it back number 2 It's time to go on a distraction diet. That's what I call a distraction Diet. So. You know we're surrounded by a world designed to grab our attention and to keep our attention if it can so again like I said social media and you know these individuals they refer to them say of as.

10:38.80

Social media influencers. What are you influencing? What? What do you line it up with to influence you to do? What is it is it consistent with what you're trying to accomplish or is it just in it. A distraction. So. So you know this around the clock smartphone notifications and beeps and bells, and all these things are going in the middle of night. There are distractions that that chatty co-worker who's into everything. And they want to share it with you. That's a distraction that's the distraction and the truth is you made yourself available and other people know. That you always make yourself Available. You made yourself available and it's time to put other folks on notice that you're on a distraction Diet. So, limit your stream time turn it off. You know. No none of those non-essential notifications turn it off and then you start with setting clear boundaries with yourself. It starts setting those boundaries with yourself and then you set clear boundaries.

Are you a real contender or are you a pretender for your dreams. Are you making excuses or are you making progress. Be honest with yourself. You got to be honest with yourself and this year if you've never done it before it starts this year look in the mirror and ask yourself. Are you a real contender or a pretender for your dreams. It starts with you because until you do that. You start making all sorts of excuses because certain things are not happening the way they are not happening. You see you can either. You can either have excuses or you can have results, but you don't keep you don't get to keep both. You can either have excuses or you can have results, but you don't get to keep both.

You must do the work. You got to commit to doing the work. You must be committed to. To form in new habits. That's realigning you to your goals your dreams and your ambitions you got to form new patterns of thinking new habits and you don't you get there by putting in the reps.

Consistency is your secret weapon. Let's be consistent. Some Dave you're not going to feel like it. You're not going to want to do it, but you do it anyway, you do it anyway. That's why we call it discipline and you never get to anything consistent with consistency without any discipline. But that's the part of the process. No more starting and stopping starting and stopping. You know there's some folks I know without any judgment I love them the same but they always starting and stopping starting and stopping. Whole life. There's a pattern of starting and stopping starting and stop getting a little bit tough a stop starting and stopping they always into something new yet never completing anything. No more starting and stopping. Lace up those commitment sneakers.

Success favors persistence you got to be persistent because success will always favor the persistent not the quitters. Number five, last but not least it's time to make some hard choices I've been there, and the truth be told I'm still making the source of heart. Prioritization choices to this day but it's time to make some painful prioritization. Sometimes that's ah, that's a hard choice but you must decide. What's more important your dreams or the temporary comfort of procrastination your dreams or the history you have with the same few people when you really pay attention. They have been the energy vipers in your life.

22:53.24

It's a destruction cut it loose even if it hurts even if you have an history with someone. It doesn't mean you don't you don't love you loved them many differently that means is that for this period. We may not be spending as much time with one another cut it lose even if it hurts but you've got to be willing to make sacrifices for your life if you want it, you got to be willing to make sacrifices for your life. If you want it see some of you've been making the energy vipers a priority in your life. Can I tell you this. Unless something changes some of you got to realize that you are sleeping right next to an energy viper.
