Hi friends, this week we're talking about doom and needs to be done and basically parenting yourself
Because we're grown-ups. We don't have our parents around us anymore telling us what needs to be done
Yeah, you got to go do this. No, if you do still have that
Happy for you, but I'm gonna teach you about governing yourself and kind of
Parenting yourself enforcing yourself to do what needs to be done. I'm gonna hit it from a few different angles.
I'm gonna talk about having new awareness and wanting to make a change or do things different
and then actually doing it.
I'm gonna share something that happened in my personal life recently that I had to handle.
That I didn't want to.
And then I'm gonna hit this from the discipline aspect of
shut-nup and doing what needs to be done.
We're done with struggling with that.
No more, after this episode,
you're not gonna struggle with it anymore.
This episode is gonna give you a lot of motivation,
and you're gonna end it, feeling we're ready to go.
And this episode's always gonna be here.
So whenever you lack a little discipline,
you lack a little motivation, come back to it, I got you.
So first thing I wanna say is kinda like a joke, but not.
And it's that handling, what needs to be handled is hot,
very much attractive, very much seductive even.
Like when someone just stands up and handle
what needs to be handled,
or just does what they need to do, very much hot.
Because people can see what you tolerate.
People can see what you're doing.
And a lot of the times you get kind of like comfortable
because you think people don't really see. Now they see people see you slacking, people see you avoiding
responsibility and not trying to do what you need to do or like handle something, like
handle the situation. People can see it. It's very much obvious. And that's just something
I want to bring to everyone's attention. Like people can see you, people are aware of
what's going on and it doesn't make you look good.
It makes you look bad when you don't step up to the plate
and handle what you need to handle.
You're not the only one that notices.
So we're gonna start there.
So let's jump into the situation
that I had to deal with this past weekend,
which was not a fun one
and I had to make a very hard decision.
This is kind of gonna help you navigate
making decisions and making changes.
So basically, someone that I'm working with,
personally, and have been working very closely with
for the past five months, I had to fire.
And it wasn't like something happened
where it was this big event where this was a determining factor
of like, we need to not work together anymore.
It was just basically a realization around what I need
and what I want out of someone who's helping me
with the business side of everything going on.
Like, there's a lot in the works right now
with my podcasts, like there's a big deal in the works.
There's a lot in the works for future merch
and my vitamin line and everything going on.
So, I basically realized within like a day, like my whole life flipped in a day.
That's typical. How it goes for me. Constantly just trying to like keep up with everything.
So a lot of awareness hit me in a matter of like 24 to 48 hours and I had a lot of realizations
around what I'm trying to achieve and where I wanna go. And I realized this person I was working with
is not someone who's gonna be able to get me there
as fast as I wanna go, sure they could learn with me
along the way and we could have done it,
it would have just taken way longer.
And I need a lot more help than I was getting.
So with that, I was like, okay, I need to make this decision to fire this person.
And it was very hard, very emotional, everything going on. But like standing in the standpoint
of like the new awareness and the new realization of like this change needs to take place. And
every day that goes by that I do not make this change, everything's just going to get
worse. And I'm going to be more stressed.
And now that this thing is on my mind, it's inevitable. I know what has to happen. I just need to do it.
So between having the realization and acting on what I knew I needed to do, 12 hours took place.
I literally gave myself 12 hours because this was weighing on my mind so much and I'm a
type person like when something's in my mind, it won't get off my mind until I handle it.
Like there is no pushing it off, there is no like extending it because all that does
is extend the discomfort that you feel.
Handle it immediately, set yourself free from the discomfort that you're feeling.
Do not let this thing that you know you need to do or change. Occupy too much of your thoughts
and too much of your mental space. Do the hard thing. Make the decision. Cut it. If you need to cut
something or someone, cut them out of your life, not like physically. I mean, if you need to,
do you got to do? And the other big thing with that is like beating yourself up is useless.
Like, there's no point in me sitting here and beating myself up for not seeing this coming
or not noticing it sooner or not picking a better person at the beginning.
Like, this is the way you have to give yourself a little bit of compassion and then kick
yourself in the ass.
So with me, with everything that had been going on, I didn't know what I was doing. Like this is the way you have to give yourself a little bit of compassion and then kick yourself in the ass. So
With me with everything that had been going on. I
Didn't know what I wanted. I didn't know what I needed from the person in this position that I was working with. I don't want to say it because I don't want to
Publicly talk about this like no bad blood. Nothing bad happened. It was just a matter of like what I felt was a better fit
So I had no idea how this partnership was supposed to go. By going through it, I
understood what I wanted, how I wanted to feel, what I wanted this person to help
me with, and be able to delegate to them. Like I got all the awareness of how I
wanted this relationship to be and the type of person that I needed by going
through it. So sitting here and beating myself up for not knowing better is useless.
I didn't know better.
It's unreasonable to expect yourself to have known better.
So I don't do that.
Don't beat yourself up.
I now have the awareness of exactly what I want for the person that's going to be working
side by side with me every day.
And it wasn't who I was with.
So I had to make the decision to change it.
And you guys always ask me about how am I so successful,
how am I doing things and achieving things so fast?
This is it.
By the time that you have the realization,
you have the new awareness.
You need to jump on a decision and take an action
in line with the new awareness that you have.
As soon as you have the idea, jump. As soon as you have the idea, jump.
As soon as you have the realization, act literally put your ass behind it immediately.
Don't daily, dally. Don't wait around. Once you've logically thought it through, when
you understand this is the best decision, make the fucking decision because I was sitting
here and I had to catch myself. I was like, it's not the right time. This is gonna ruin this person's
day. It's out of the blue because it's just me coming with new awareness. Like just shit just dumping
into my head. That's gonna completely change my life. So for this person to be completely caught off
guard, like it's not that fair. There's all these emotional things I was taken into consideration
and I was stressing myself out even more
But that's another thing do not wait. It's never gonna feel like the right time Especially like if you're considering breaking up with someone firing someone making a life change to stop smoking stop doing
Drogues drinking can I say this online? I don't know
They're doing anything like that. There is never gonna seem like a perfect time
You just have to do it.
Decide, act, now, and then deal with all the consequences that come up.
You're just going to have to deal with them.
But the biggest thing that you need to face right now is just the decision that needs to
be made and the thing that you need to do.
Handle it needs to be handled now.
Everything that's going to come up after, that's after.
Your focus, just focus in.
Laser in, focus in on what's at hand.
What is the thing that needs to be done right now?
Do that.
Figure out how to get that done.
Do it.
Stop thinking about what comes after.
And then after you handle this first thing,
that is when you're free.
Like all of your attention and focus,
everything is freed up because this thing is gone.
Now you face everything that comes up because of it.
Don't get stuck and the trying to pick a perfect time to do jack shit.
It's just gonna hold you back.
And like I said, when you get new awareness about something, you need to change something or handle something.
Do it as soon as possible.
Like I mean as soon as possible.
This decision for me was very hard.
It was very emotionally charged and it stressed me out.
But I knew what I had to do and everyone else
that I work with, everyone else on my team,
is literally sitting there watching me.
That's what I'm saying.
Everybody sees what you're putting up with.
Everybody sees what you're dealing with.
Handle that shit and send the message to everyone.
You will do what needs to be done and you are trustworthy and reliable. So for all these people
to be looking at me and be waiting for me to make this decision, they're all seeing how fast I
act, how much I prioritize myself, and how much I care about my career, and my willing to make
the decision for it that we need to make even if it's a hard one.
So there was a lot of things about this but I handled it immediately.
Like as soon as I could, I did.
I sat down, I journaled it out, I got the decision, I knew what I needed to do.
That's the hardest part is figuring out what you need to do.
Taking the action seems like the hardest part.
No babe, literally figuring
out and becoming solid in your decision. Alright, this is what needs to be done. That was
harder than actually doing it, because actually doing it is not going to take long. You just
got to do it one time, or if it's something that you have to do repetitively, like going
to the gym or stop smoking, it's like something you're going to face every day. Once you face
it once, every single time you face it after is way easier.
Just that first one, just handle it, trust me, I promise.
Everything's gonna go better than you think.
Just jump on that shit, man up, woman up, they them up.
Let me not assume, like grab yourself by the balls and show yourself you'll do what you know needs to be done.
It's gonna breed self-trust, you're gonna be able to rely on yourself, you're gonna feel safe
with yourself because you know you will do what needs to be done. This is not out for
discussion. Get up and handle that shit. And I do want to go back to that one point I
said about success like when you have an idea for something act as fast as possible. With me moving to LA, finding a gym has been a
shit show. I haven't liked it, haven't liked any of them. I've been considering going to
equinox. I've been at this little 24 hour fitness like down the road and it's good enough,
but I'm like irritated every time I go, it's so busy, it's not very private and everything's
kind of like, not good quality. Like it's me, like it's just very private and everything's kind of like not good quality
Like it's me like it's just like a little like fuck you Jim like it's nothing like special and
The environment where I work out is very important so like am I gonna sit here and just keep going to this gym or
Am I gonna get up immediately and go tour a different one and that's what I did I have the realization
I'm not happy here.
I want better and I immediately went and found it. I went and toured the gym yesterday.
Like that's just how it goes. Like as soon as you realize something's not working you don't like
it or you're uncomfortable or it's not efficient, change it. Put your ass behind it and go change it.
You might think, oh I'll get to it in a couple days. Why can't you do it today? Why not today? What else you got?
You know, like battle with yourself and talk to yourself like
Things don't take as long as they seem you need to get very realistic like how soon can I actually do this thing?
Another thing that I'm working on right now is hiring an editor. I've been considering
Maybe I need to get an editor. I'm always gonna edit my podcast because I'll be talking a lot of shit and I have any cut it out. But I want
someone to take the burden off of me of making clips. I'm like cutting up clips of my podcasts
and posting those. So I was the one doing all of it and I've considered getting an editor
for like months and I'm like me. I'm not like I can still force myself to do it. I still have a little extra time.
I have the discipline.
I'll get myself to do it.
Now I'm in a position with everything else that I'm working on.
I need to get that off my plate.
So as soon as I realize this is actually a necessity and I need this and it's
a tax write off and it feels like an urgent time to do it.
Immediately I start looking for editors and I found one.
And now that's off my plate.
Like why are you gonna sit here
and make yourself continue making these clips
and wasting this time and overwhelm in yourself
even more than you already are,
once you're aware you need to do something,
God damn, do it.
Like be quick, do it immediately.
Like as soon as you're like, okay, I do need this
or I am unhappy with this, change it that day.
Do something to change it that day.
And I'm talking relationship, work, friendships,
anything you got going on, make the damn change.
Like as soon as you're aware of it,
like awareness visits you when you need it.
Certain things will happen that will make you aware
of what you really want, what you don't like, because now you know a direction to go away from it. When you figure
out what you don't like, literally it leads you to what you do like. You just have to stop
going in the direction of what you don't like. Make that change if you keep going in that
direction and turn around. That's when everything changes. That's when your life gets better.
That's when things unfold. So the biggest takeaway here
is do not linger. Make changes quick. Make the decision and do it. Make changes quick and act on
them immediately. Trust. And then watch your life flip literally. I live by this. And that's why
my life improves every single day I wake up because I realize something and I act on it. Like I'm
thinking about getting a new car.
I'm going to test drive one in two days. I decided I wanted to get a new car and upgrade. Why not?
So I immediately started googling and looking up all the cars that I could get in my price range that are what I
want. And I've already got the appointment set up and it's like everything like just get on it. Act quick. If you want to change to happen, if you want an improvement,
it's all reliant on you
and how fast you put your effort into it.
Like it's all dependent on you, trust.
All right, now let's move into discipline
because I'm gonna tell you the way
that I stopped exhausting myself mentally
for no reason.
Like you think you're working,
you're tired all the time,
this is why, okay?
And it kinda hits off my last point, but you're gonna take that and put it into
day-to-day active things. So let's start with chores, and like shit you need to do
around the house. If you have something you know you need to do, like the dishes, or
laundry, or something, as soon as you think I need to do that. Get up and do it.
Because if you are like, oh, I need to do that.
And you're like, oh, no, I'm just gonna stay sitting
on the couch or I'm gonna keep sitting here
and just scrolling on my phone.
It does not leave your head.
And that pressure from what needs to be done
does not go away.
You're gonna sit there and you're gonna think about it.
And it's gonna be in the back of your head.
And you're gonna be playing on your phone,
you're gonna be watching TV. And it's gonna in the back of your head and you're gonna be playing on your phone, you're gonna be watching TV
and it's gonna keep popping back up.
I need to do the dishes, I need to do the dishes,
I need to do laundry.
These things are just gonna keep popping back up.
Set yourself free from that, that's a bad spiral
and that takes away from your actual relaxation
of sitting down and enjoying yourself,
watching TV, playing on your phone, scrolling,
sick tech, whatever you want to do.
Like it takes away from those moments
because you got all these thoughts popping up in your head.
So if you're just sitting around
and you have an idea to do something
and you're not like dedicated to a certain time
to relax because I have to do that.
Like all right, I did all this shit all day.
I'm relaxing for the next three hours
or whatever it is, I'm not doing nothing.
That's different.
But also, if you're in that place where you're like,
okay, I'm not doing anything for the next couple of hours,
if you have something come up in your head,
get your phone out and send yourself a text
or set a reminder or put it in your notes app,
get it out of your head.
Like these thoughts and all these responsibilities need an action behind them. So if you're not able to get up and
do them right now, put it in your phone, put the action, do something to get it
out of your head to keep track of it. Because as soon as you type it into your
phone or make a list of all the things you need to do and you add it to it, it's
not going to keep popping up in your head. Oh, I need to be doing that. You've already written it down to get it done later. Like the thought came and action usually follows it.
So like if the action is just keeping track of it, it sets your mind free from constantly thinking back to it and trying to like keep yourself accountable.
I'm like, but I need to do that. Yeah, I'm playing on my phone, but oh my god, I need to do that.
It's like just stop that. Like that's a waste. But if there is things my god, I need to do that. It's like, just stop that. Like, that's a waste.
But if there is things that you can get up and do,
get up and do them immediately.
Like, with going to the gym,
if you're like, I need to go work out.
Oh, I'll go later.
Are you really gonna go later, bitch?
Because most of the time I don't,
just get up and go.
As soon as you have that thought,
that is when you have motivation.
That is when you have like,
that forward moving energy when a thought comes up.
So tap into it when it's there, ride that wave because it is way easier to ride that wave
when it visits you to get up and start that flow of energy and action.
Then it is to like just start it without it.
Basically, sitting here and thinking about it is going to exhaust you and getting up and
doing it is also going to exhaust you, but only one of these exhaustions
end.
And only one of these exhaustions is productive.
So get up and do it.
Sin you're just thinking about it, having it rack your brain, it's going to tire you out.
And you're going to feel like you've been doing a lot of shit and you haven't.
You just been thinking about it.
That's one thing that helped me a lot with my mindset around things like this.
And like discipline with like daily tasks,
skincare, chores, hygiene, like anything you need to do.
As soon as you think of it, just do it,
especially with texts, like responding the texts
or responding to emails, just respond.
Like as soon as you think about it,
I'll need to text that person back, do it.
Handle it, get it done, so it's like off your plate
and out of your mind.
Like if it's something small you can do now, like I said, do it.
If you're actually in the middle of something, put it in your phone and save it for later and then
go back to it. The next part of this I want to hit on is no one's coming to push you.
No one's coming to save you and no one is going to walk into your life and hold your hand
and keep you accountable with all the things you need to do. No one is going to take the responsibility of ensuring you get what you want.
You have to do that.
And if you know that there's things you have to do, no one's here to tell you to do it.
No one.
Nobody's here.
Nobody's coming.
You have to save yourself with many things, but especially this.
If there's something you want and you know you need to do things to get it, you're the only one that's going to be there and
push you. Do not live a powerless little life of, oh, I need so and so to like keep me
accountable and push me and tell me what needs to be done. Don't be someone that needs
to be told what needs to be done. Tell yourself what needs to be done. A lot of people grew
up with parents who kept
everything accountable and pushed them and kept them on track with everything and reminded
them. Other people grew up without that, like me. Like I had to learn how to govern myself
and if I didn't do it, things didn't get done. So some people have that and some people
don't. But if you have parents that did that for you and you're grown now, you've got to adapt to this new way of life.
If you've had people in the past,
keep you accountable until you wouldn't need to be done,
and you've grown up and you've moved out or whatever it is,
there's no one left to do it.
And if you're someone who's always had to do it,
hey, we're gonna say mo babe, it doesn't get better.
You just get better at doing it
and get better at handling it.
And other thing I wanna say is, it's never been easier to be disciplined.
It's never been easier to do what needs to be done.
Like, this life is so advanced technologically.
And there's so many ways you can kind of like hack the system.
Like, you can set reminders on your phone.
You can set alarms.
It's something always on you that will gain and keep you on track and tell you what you need to do.
Like there's so much access to everything, everything is so much faster because we have
so much technology.
Use it to your advantage, it's never been easier to be more disciplined.
Imagine people a hundred years ago trying to do some shit.
It was way harder to do it and they still did it.
They still managed to kick themselves in the ass and
needed to be and do what needed to be done. But with the technology thing, there is
a lot more distraction. So if you become aware of certain things being distractions for
you, same thing like I said earlier, immediately cut them or set a time for them where they're
not just in your way all day and they're not taken away
from doing what needs to be done. And since I was talking about parenting yourself,
a big thing people deal with and I've seen pop up a lot in society is learned helplessness.
People throw their power away all the time and act like they need other people for everything. You are fully capable and you've fully got all the power to make every single thing happen
for yourself that you want to have happen. You can achieve anything you want. I'm
living proof of it. I have a lot of podcast episodes about my past and how bad
things were and how I still managed to get through it. So if you need a little
inspiration on that front, go for it, But you're not powerless to what you want. You're just not doing what it takes. And if
you don't have a result for something that you want yet, stop looking for someone to
blame. Stop looking for outside forces and look at what you're doing. Are you doing
what needs to be done? Or are you just thinking about it? Are you pushing it off? Are you delaying it? What would happen? What would your life look
like? If right now after you finish this episode, you immediately got up and started executing
and doing every single thing that you know you need to do. Would you then be closer to
what you want? Would you feel a rapid speed up in the progress and the results?
Yeah, we don't even gotta pretend, I know the answer.
But I struggled with this so long,
like I used to convince myself I could not lose weight.
And I fully was like trapped in this mindset
of like learned helplessness of like,
I've tried everything, I've done everything.
And I just can't lose weight.
Like I don't understand how people do it
You got to look at your actions. Are you doing what needs to be done? And as soon as I looked at my actions and got very real with myself I lost weight
Because I started doing what you get to be done
I stopped eating so goddamn much and working out more and consistently like just do the damn thing
You've got it. I know it feels very hard and it feels like a challenge sometimes.
And it is. It very much is a challenge.
And things are not always fun.
But do you respect anyone who everything is easy for?
No. That's a big character trait that people lack nowadays
is the ability to do hard shit.
Be one of them. And if you do hard shit, be one of them.
And if you think hard shit is taking care of yourself, doing your chores,
doing your laundry, and keeping up with your body and making sure you're in
shape, you've been brainwashed by social media. Those are not things that are hard.
They're basic necessities to live as a human being. So if taking care of yourself
seems like a difficult task right now.
Your threshold has nothing to do but rise, babe.
It's gonna get so much easier.
As soon as you start doing what you need to do,
and getting in the habit, getting in the routine,
of just knocking things out when they need to be done,
whether you feel like it or not,
whether you're upset and sad, you can do it upset and sad,
you can do it tired.
Get your little caffeine and get your ass up.
But basic maintenance of you as a human being and taking care of your house and being hygienic and working out,
that's all gonna become very easy.
It's all gonna become bare minimum for you.
After you do it for a while, it's just gonna become part of what you do and it's gonna feel like it takes no energy.
It feels like a giant task right now, but it's going to get so much easier.
Like if you literally do it for a month, how you feel on day one is going to suck ass.
How you feel on day 30 is like, man, not that hard.
You're used to it.
You're used to that feeling of discomfort.
You're used to it all.
And you keep pushing through.
You keep deciding.
You keep acting and doing what you need to do.
And then it's just going to become easy.
And then everything that you feel so overwhelmed by right now, you feel overwhelmed by it because you're not handling it.
And as soon as you start handling it, you realize it's not that big of a deal.
Like it's not that hard.
And then you get the capacity to take on even more.
And that is where the constant level up happens.
It's going to get easier and easier and better and better.
The more you just do what needs to be done.
And this is where my last tip comes in.
By doing hard shit and doing what you need to do,
you're no longer gonna fear things.
You're no longer gonna be so worried
and feel so overwhelmed.
You're gonna have a literal stack of proof of you will do what needs to be done. You will have these hard
conversations like me firing who I needed to fire. Breaking up with certain
people, ending things the right way, making these hard decisions. Literally what
got me through my conversation is thinking back on the past when I had to cut
people off and handle certain breakups
and deal with similar situations.
By having actions I've taken in the past
that were very difficult and I got through it
and I handled it, it gave me so much comfort
and courage and confidence that I could handle
what was now in front of me.
When you can look back and be like,
look at all the shit that I handled
Whoa, it's like a boost of
Nah, I definitely got this in front of me
It's gonna suck this might have been the hardest thing I've faced yet
But I've got this and then once you handle everything right now that all becomes
Something you can look back on in the past and be motivated and inspired by. It just stacks on itself.
Something that I think about a lot is if you're someone that is disappointed by
people a lot and you're let down by people a lot,
the only person you can fully control is yourself.
So it's time to stop letting yourself down.
Letting yourself down is no longer an option.
Okay, get that in your head
and I want you to like cement that. Letting yourself down is no longer an option.
So start acting accordingly. This is the flip you need to make in your mind. Everyone
might let you down, but never yourself. And when you have that, babe, like that's the
best feeling you can have. When you know you can depend on yourself and rely on yourself, you don't need shit.
You will not feel a need for anyone, if that makes sense.
Like, you will want people.
And that allows you to be very picky and choosy
and have standards and feel confident
asking for those things that you ask for
and demanding certain things for people to get access to you,
whether it's a friend, relationship, hookup, business partner,
whatever it is, you will not feel that desperate,
like need for anyone.
You've got you, you've got yourself.
When you do what needs to be done,
you're stacking up proof and showing yourself,
I am there for you, I do care about you,
I can rely on you.
You are the one you can rely on. So it's time to be that.
And this is especially important when you're working on yourself or trying to achieve
things by yourself. Like I said, people are not going to be there to push you and back
you. And that also means you have no one else to do it for. Like you have no one to answer
to. You don't have to worry about disappointing anyone. No one really gives a shit. So if
you realize that you're the one on the line, there's no one you should care about
more getting hurt.
If you can do things to prevent yourself being hurt and prevent yourself from not achieving
what it is that you want, that's a responsibility you need to choose.
And that's kind of like the pivotal moment for me and you guys always ask about my confidence
and how I am so strong.
It's because I've shown myself I am strong
and I've faced things I never thought I would face
and by choosing it, by doing it
and by like, I always talk about little me,
by grabbing little me, by the hand
and basically saying, I'm not gonna let you down.
Like everybody else has, I'm not gonna let you down, like everybody else has.
I've got you.
You breed so much self-respect and competence
and you're not gonna fear anything, like me.
And when I talk about fearing things,
I don't mean you're never gonna feel fear again.
I'm scared of certain shit, but I do not question
if I'll be able to handle it.
That's the thing.
When you got that solid like fallback of yourself of like, I will handle whatever needs to be done. I will do
what needs to be done. You don't fear anything. Like, you might not want something to happen,
but you're not terrified of it. It doesn't feel so crippling. It doesn't feel like world
ending when something might happen or something goes wrong.
It's like, yeah, that sucks, but I'm not doubting or second guessing if I'll handle it and if I'll
get through it, you will. And I do want to go back to something that I head on in the beginning
where I talked about. People can see what you put up with and people can see how you handle things. When you are putting up with things and not handling things right or being there for
yourself and if you are constantly letting yourself down, people see it.
Yeah, but it also works on the flip side.
People see when you handle things for yourself.
People see when you do what needs to be done.
People see when you have that discipline and that courage to face whatever comes up and
That makes you very safe to care about and a lot of people are worried about
Becoming rigid and discipline and doing what needs to be done, but
People are gonna come toward you. It's the weirdest thing like a lot of people are so scared
It's gonna push people away, but it literally brings people closer to you. Because think about someone in your life.
When you see your friend putting up with that dumb ass boyfriend,
she got, or your friend that wants to lose weight,
but just won't get a grip on her diet and won't exercise.
When people are sitting around saying they want all these things and
not putting the action behind achieving it or doing what needs to be done,
or if someone is going through something painful and
keeps being hurt and they won't make the decision to set themselves free from it and make a change,
that's what pushes you away from people. When people handle shit right, it brings you closer to them,
it makes you respect them, it makes you tighter with them and the weirdest little way. That is truly
what draws people to you. That's what's
going to make you magnetic is getting your own shit and check and doing what needs to
be done. So start doing it. That is all I have for this week's episode. I hope this was
the kick in the ass that you needed. And like I said, letting yourself down is no longer
an option. Wipe that off the table. Now you're gonna have to
act accordingly and you're gonna have to do it and handle it and face it all. You got
this. I wouldn't be yelling over here with you if I didn't believe in you. You got this.
