We are almost through the Mel Robbins book The High Five Habit. We are talking about manifesting and I talk about some points she makes in the book in Chapter 14.

Manifest: to create something or turn something from an idea into reality, Berkeley Well Being Institute

Truth: I hate the word manifesting. It seems cheesy and annoying arrogant, but that's because so many talk about it without considering some key factors.

Today I talk about some of the challenges I've had with manifesting. I don't "hate" it but I know it is something that can easily become a heartbreaking experience if you don't understand or learn some of the lessons I learned the hard way.


Let's start the meeting.

And, thank you for listening.

Lets talk about Chapter 13 Can I Actually Handle This from The High Five Habit by Mel Robbins.

Can you handle the season of life you're in?

The fact that you may ask yourself this question is a sign that you can. Feeling the challenge you're in and realizing that its heavy means you are away that you may be required to develop into a newer version of yourself. You may need to be a version of yourself that will say I can keep it together and not lose it when my air conditioning goes out in the Arizona Heat. Yea, I did that and it was terrible and I did question whether I could handle it and some days I did not handle it well.

You can handle this, however you may need to ask for help. You may need to be kinder to yourself. You may need a community of people in similar situations.

Be kind to yourself as you navigate through the hard stuff. Look up, look around, look for help.

Life can be life sometimes, am I right?

We have a plan we expect things to do a certain way and then everything falls apart and we end up on our knees suffering.

I had this experience in my 20s when I had a car repossessed. My neighbors came running to my door to tell me someone was towing my car. I tried to run outside to stop it from happening, I failed. This is a longer story, and this was a car that I had co signed on it wasn't "my car," This is probably a good topic for a separate podcast. Anyway, life brought me to my knees that day. It took a long time for me to get up again. 

How else are we brought to our knees? We launch products and crickets are our only customers. We coach a team that loses every game. We're in a relationship that crushes our souls and is embarrassing to talk about.

I've been there for all these scenarios. When you get to this point you need to be prepared to have a "workaround"

work·a·round

1. a method for overcoming a problem or limitation in a program or system.

A workaround is a mindset that allows us to not be taken out by unexpected obstacles. Instead of seeing an obstacle and allowing it to bring us to our knees and shut us down,  we can still be brought to our knees, but instead we can get back up and figure out our next move.

It's ok and necessary to feel the disappointment and sadness of something not working out, but it is also necessary to realize life does not end there. An obstacle is a comma not a period and we get to write the next chapter.

Let's start the meeting.

And, thank you for listening.

We've heard it before.

The answer no.

It can hurt when we're adults and I witness the pain it brings my 4 year old daughter when I say we will not go to Target to walk through the toy aisle for the 3rd time this week.

Hearing a no as a response to something you really want or someone you really want hurts bad. Pain.

In today's episode, we talk about how we can redefine what a no means to us.

Let me be clear. No's still are the worst. But maybe not the worst thing in the world.

Let's start the meeting.

And, thank you for listening.

I like the definition of courage from Anne Lamont.
"courage is fear that has said its prayers"

In this episode, I thank you for being a part of The Team Meeting Community. I also talk about how to exercise your courage muscles, which is what we do here. Let those muscles burn baby.

If you're growing and learning and healing you will come to seasons in life where you are very uncomfortable. Being uncomfortable does not mean you're off track.

You're probably exactly where you need to be.

For today's meeting  we're talking about the Mel Robbins book The High Five Habit.

I'm reviewing the entire book, I read it once and I also listened to it on audible. I recommend it. You'll see all the previous episodes on the chapters from the book.

For this episode, we're on Chapter 12: How Come I Screw Everything Up? 

Do you ask yourself questions like this? Do you say why can't I get it together? Do you ask yourself why things don't go well for you?

This chapter is for you. This chapter is for us.

Let me tell you know. This chapter is about realizing things won't  always go well for you. That doesn't mean you're doing something wrong, It means you're living. Keep living.

Check out this podcast where Mel talks to Tom Bilyeu about how motivation is garbage. I agree with Mel. 

I talk about motivation in this Team Meeting Podcast episode from Season 2.

How to feel proud of yourself, that's what we're talking about today.

Other than babies, children, and maybe people who are extremely arrogant, I don't think we know how to feel proud of ourselves.

I think if we learn how to do this well it can change your life and give you tools to get through hard things in a more powerful way.,

Let's start the meeting.

If you're growing and learning and healing you will come to seasons in life where you are uncomfortable. Being uncomfortable does not mean you are off track.
