Description

Welcome back to another episode of Monday minutes. And this one's interesting. I'm recording this on Monday. I'm about to post it because somehow we lost an episode or I didn't record one. And that's what happens. But you know what the beautiful thing about Mondays are is that we get to Kickstarter a day, however we want, and we find something, we focus on it and we put it into action.And if you lose focus, she come get grounded. You reset and you go again today. I'm not going to be threatening to kick you in the shins because today is one of those days of loving. And so I'm probably going to break into tears as we speak right now. So today's focus is a quote that I was journaling about yesterday because I needed to focus on it.So the premise of this quote is really, really, really simple, what we do see like what we do see, like when we look at something, what we see depends on what we look for. So John Lubbock said this and he said, what we do see depends on what we're looking for. To think about that for a minute. It's Monday or Tuesday or Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday.And I've been struggling this morning. I've had a lot of tears feeling the weight of the world, the pressure, lots of internal dialogue that I get to work through today. I get to breathe through. And I remember that I was meditating on this code. I was writing about this quote for an email yesterday and the quote was what we see depends mainly on what we're looking for.And so this morning I had to take a moment and reflect, and I'd asked myself, what was I looking for? And in the exploration of that, I found what I was looking for. I was looking for sadness. I was looking for a reason to not succeed. I was looking for a moment of frustration. I was looking for evidence to believe the crappy subconscious programming that's running in the supercomputer of my brain is Jim Kwik Gosset.I was not feeling good. And so I went and looked for evidence that what I was feeling was right, and that there was enough around me to justify that I looked at the last couple of days, my actions, after I finished the challenge and I started finding every single hole that I could find to stack up as evidence against myself.Until I caught it. And when I caught it, I realized that's what I was looking for. And I mean, I went through the gamut like you did 75 hard, you completed it. You've been drinking a gallon of water. You've been doing your workouts, you added strength and your body's changing. You're doing it. And how dare you eat that bagel yesterday.And you know that cheesecake last night that you shared with your family, well, you were being grumpy and mean to all of them because you were beating yourself up. Like there was a lot that happened. And it all simply happened because of what I was choosing to see. And so today's, Monday's episode is about forgiveness around this quote.So first off in front of you right now, recording this live, cause this episode goes up in an hour. I am forgiving myself. For beating myself up and then projecting that on others, around me and then gaslighting and blaming them for my down for my sad for my places. And what I'm choosing to do is to refocus and to see the things that I choose to see you're going to help me move forward.So let me read this full quote to you. John Lubbock said what we do see depends mainly on what we look for in the same field. The farmer will notice the crops. The geologists will notice the fossils, the botanists will notice the flowers, the artists will notice the colors and the sport men, the cover for the game though, we may all look at the same things.It does not all follow that we should see them. And so what really is the difference between failure and success? It's perspective. It's what we choose to see. And one of the things I've learned as a human and not even necessarily just an entrepreneur, is that whatever it is that we choose to see, we'll find it because we create things.If we choose to
