1
00:00:07,130 --> 00:00:10,610
Well, Hey everybody, Jonathan
Doyle, once again, welcome aboard

2
00:00:10,610 --> 00:00:12,260
friends to the daily podcast.

3
00:00:12,260 --> 00:00:15,770
I've enjoyed doing this last
sort of series of episodes.

4
00:00:15,770 --> 00:00:19,580
I've just really enjoyed being back in
the studio with my favorite microphone.

5
00:00:19,610 --> 00:00:20,690
I know it's a quickie thing.

6
00:00:21,350 --> 00:00:24,020
We all have favorite microphones
and an eight year old thinking next

7
00:00:24,050 --> 00:00:26,570
to the Jonathan know he dyno Alexie
have a favorite Margaret finds.

8
00:00:26,570 --> 00:00:27,290
It's really strange.

9
00:00:27,290 --> 00:00:29,240
It seems to be something
very particular to you.

10
00:00:29,510 --> 00:00:31,490
I don't, we quirky as human beings ever.

11
00:00:31,850 --> 00:00:36,260
I don't know, ever since I first started,
um, you know, speaking and doing stuff,

12
00:00:36,290 --> 00:00:37,970
I've always really liked good microphone.

13
00:00:37,970 --> 00:00:38,240
So.

14
00:00:39,080 --> 00:00:39,470
All right.

15
00:00:39,500 --> 00:00:39,709
Let's see.

16
00:00:40,489 --> 00:00:42,560
Let's move on from that
important statement.

17
00:00:43,009 --> 00:00:44,750
On a microphone quality side.

18
00:00:44,750 --> 00:00:46,489
Great to be with you in
the studio again today.

19
00:00:46,940 --> 00:00:49,220
Uh, really looking forward to
doing this message, which I

20
00:00:49,220 --> 00:00:50,120
think is a really important one.

21
00:00:50,120 --> 00:00:51,890
I think it's going to all help all of us.

22
00:00:52,550 --> 00:00:54,560

As we hurdle through the solar system
and the wider cosmos itself at breath.

34
00:01:17,210 --> 00:01:18,650
Taking pace.

35
00:01:19,220 --> 00:01:20,120
Uh, what else?

36
00:01:20,510 --> 00:01:22,670

You can find out how to book me
to speak at your conference, your

39
00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:28,280
event, your school, your business.

40
00:01:28,580 --> 00:01:33,560
To work with your team anyway, that I
can bring years of, I guess, personal

41
00:01:33,560 --> 00:01:37,760
development, motivation business
experience to a, to what you're doing.

42
00:01:38,270 --> 00:01:40,880
I just love being in a room with people.

43
00:01:41,150 --> 00:01:46,370
Uh, you know, my audiences have
range from over 10,000 people at some

44
00:01:46,370 --> 00:01:47,930
major global events that I've done.

45
00:01:48,380 --> 00:01:51,920
All the way down to, I have a
memory of speaking in Outback

46
00:01:51,920 --> 00:01:54,200
Queensland to two people and a dog.

47
00:01:54,680 --> 00:01:55,730
I was a nice dog.

48
00:01:55,730 --> 00:01:58,070
The dog seemed very appreciative
of what I had to say.

49
00:01:58,460 --> 00:02:01,610
So, uh, it just, for me, I love
getting up there in front of people.

50
00:02:01,610 --> 00:02:03,230
So go and check out those show notes.

51
00:02:03,230 --> 00:02:05,450
Cause you can find out more
about those sorts of things.

52
00:02:05,930 --> 00:02:09,229
Today, we're kind of riffing a
little bit on this whole topic

53
00:02:09,259 --> 00:02:12,170
that I was just talking about,
really about the joy that I get.

54
00:02:12,890 --> 00:02:14,480
At being in a room full of people.

55
00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:18,980
And, uh, my experience over the years has
been no matter how jet lag, no matter how

56
00:02:18,980 --> 00:02:21,980
tired, no matter how disoriented I am.

57
00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:24,650
Something happens.

58
00:02:25,520 --> 00:02:26,840
I'm going to get in a room full of people.

59
00:02:26,840 --> 00:02:30,320
I just have this energy and desire
and passion to just encourage

60
00:02:30,320 --> 00:02:31,790
and inspire and motivate people.

61
00:02:31,790 --> 00:02:34,160
It's just being there from
pub and I was pretty young.

62
00:02:34,610 --> 00:02:35,780
I'm thinking about a time.

63
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:38,150
Uh, pre COVID when I flew into Texas.

64
00:02:38,990 --> 00:02:41,360
I've been all across the U S and
the fluent to Dallas Fort worth

65
00:02:41,390 --> 00:02:42,680
got picked up by the client.

66
00:02:43,250 --> 00:02:47,390
And we drive about two hours
and I had never felt so sick.

67
00:02:47,390 --> 00:02:49,220
I was so, so sick.

68
00:02:49,760 --> 00:02:54,260
From jet lag and a whole bunch of other
stuff and just fatigue and got into

69
00:02:54,260 --> 00:02:58,430
the hotel about 2:00 AM and the client
was picking me up again at 7:00 AM.

70
00:02:59,810 --> 00:03:02,810
And I was wrecked and I was actually
really crook and I'm thinking to

71
00:03:02,810 --> 00:03:03,920
myself, how am I going to do this?

72
00:03:03,920 --> 00:03:06,680
And the next day by the grace of God,
I just got up there in front of people.

73
00:03:06,680 --> 00:03:07,490
I was like, yep.

74
00:03:07,550 --> 00:03:08,240
I want to be here.

75
00:03:08,270 --> 00:03:09,350
Bang went for it.

76
00:03:10,010 --> 00:03:12,680
So there's something that's
special that comes from.

77
00:03:13,010 --> 00:03:18,380
Using our gifts in ways that reach
and bless and encourage other people.

78
00:03:18,380 --> 00:03:22,850
So today's focus is on what I'm
calling constant outward, focus

79
00:03:22,850 --> 00:03:28,700
on people and service, constant
outward focus on people and service.

80
00:03:29,060 --> 00:03:29,390
All right.

81
00:03:29,570 --> 00:03:31,010
We have a huge.

82
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:35,420
Huge problem in the developed world,
particularly with mental health.

83
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:37,400
Things like depression, anxiety.

84
00:03:37,400 --> 00:03:39,350
Everybody knows that
that is a great truth.

85
00:03:39,380 --> 00:03:44,090
Now, as I said, in yesterday's
episode, I recognize and realize

86
00:03:44,090 --> 00:03:48,350
that the basis of mental health
issues are complex, profound.

87
00:03:48,350 --> 00:03:49,520
That can be rooted in trauma.

88
00:03:50,060 --> 00:03:53,480
And all sorts of things, but
I wanted to suggest that.

89
00:03:54,380 --> 00:03:57,440
At least in my own experience,
episodes and experiences of things

90
00:03:57,470 --> 00:03:59,150
like depression can come from.

91
00:03:59,750 --> 00:04:02,570
Long periods of rumination
of getting caught.

92
00:04:03,200 --> 00:04:08,660
And trapped in a cycle of focus upon
our own suffering and upon our own

93
00:04:08,660 --> 00:04:11,480
problems and upon our own limitations.

94
00:04:12,110 --> 00:04:18,050
Now this is to make nobody the, you know,
kind of, uh, the perpetrator of, I guess,

95
00:04:18,380 --> 00:04:20,450
Psychological trauma against themselves.

96
00:04:20,450 --> 00:04:24,020
If you understand what I'm saying, it's
not like, well, you know, if we're,

97
00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,870
if we're experiencing depression,
we're really doing it to ourselves.

98
00:04:26,870 --> 00:04:29,000
I don't want to be flipping about
it because again, as I've just

99
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,980
said, the basis of this is complex.

100
00:04:31,490 --> 00:04:34,370
But I think we can all agree
that we've all had times.

101
00:04:35,030 --> 00:04:39,140
When we get into negative states
and we might feel depressed or down

102
00:04:39,140 --> 00:04:42,740
or disillusioned, but do you notice
most of the time that the energy,

103
00:04:42,740 --> 00:04:46,160
the focus is very much internalized.

104
00:04:46,400 --> 00:04:48,890
We spin our wheels, we
spin our cognitive wheels.

105
00:04:48,890 --> 00:04:50,570
Don't we go round and
round and round, and we.

106
00:04:51,050 --> 00:04:52,160
Catastrophize.

107
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:53,840
And we think of the worst case scenario.

108
00:04:54,530 --> 00:04:56,180
And we think that things
are never going to change.

109
00:04:56,540 --> 00:04:59,810
I watched a brilliant lecture
on, um, depression a while ago.

110
00:04:59,840 --> 00:05:01,880
And this professor was talking about.

111
00:05:02,360 --> 00:05:04,640
What they call attributional style, right?

112
00:05:04,820 --> 00:05:08,270
Attributional style is when we're
experiencing negative states.

113
00:05:08,690 --> 00:05:13,730
We tend to attribute them to
something, uh, that we can't change.

114
00:05:13,820 --> 00:05:17,090
And we all, I think they use the
terms permanent and pervasive.

115
00:05:17,090 --> 00:05:19,460
We believe that whatever's
happening to us is permanent.

116
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:23,510
That it is pervasive, which means
it's going to impact all areas of our

117
00:05:23,510 --> 00:05:25,280
lives and wellbeing and happiness.

118
00:05:25,970 --> 00:05:29,930
So again, we see that in negative
states, we tend to collapse into this.

119
00:05:30,380 --> 00:05:34,220
Unhelpful internal self-absorbed focus.

120
00:05:34,580 --> 00:05:37,880
So the purpose of today's
message is to offer all of us.

121
00:05:38,390 --> 00:05:43,430
Uh, kind of general useful, we would
call it maybe a, hermaneutic a kind

122
00:05:43,460 --> 00:05:47,180
of system of looking at reality that
can offer us a fair bit of help.

123
00:05:47,990 --> 00:05:51,890
If you look at things like evolutionary
psychology, how we've evolved

124
00:05:51,890 --> 00:05:53,990
as a species, how our cognition.

125
00:05:54,620 --> 00:05:59,150
And I guess I interface with reality has
evolved as we've evolved as a species.

126
00:05:59,840 --> 00:06:04,520
We've gone from being an extremely
social species to being an

127
00:06:04,520 --> 00:06:06,860
incredibly atomized species.

128
00:06:06,860 --> 00:06:07,160
Right.

129
00:06:07,640 --> 00:06:12,320
So, you know, we've been homosapien
sapiens for about 350,000 years.

130
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:17,720
Give or take for almost the entirety
of that 350,000 years, we have lived

131
00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:19,730
in incredibly small groups of people.

132
00:06:20,270 --> 00:06:22,400
Uh, it's really only you, you would say.

133
00:06:22,820 --> 00:06:24,080
You know, definitely.

134
00:06:24,410 --> 00:06:28,190
Not so much in pre-modernity, but
in modernity, we began to live in

135
00:06:28,190 --> 00:06:30,530
slightly larger groups, villages, towns.

136
00:06:31,100 --> 00:06:34,850
But for most of our evolution, we've
really been in very small groups

137
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:37,250
and taking care of each other.

138
00:06:38,090 --> 00:06:40,820
It was a very, very
significant part of daily life.

139
00:06:40,850 --> 00:06:41,120
Why?

140
00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,580
Because you had to believe.

141
00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:46,070
That the people around you
were going to take care of.

142
00:06:46,070 --> 00:06:46,490
You.

143
00:06:46,910 --> 00:06:51,950
And in response to that, you lived
your life with a focus upon looking

144
00:06:51,950 --> 00:06:53,420
after the people in your life.

145
00:06:53,450 --> 00:06:57,530
So this kind of, um, reinforcement
loop, right where, you know, you're

146
00:06:57,530 --> 00:07:00,410
going to go and work in the field, or
you're going to go hunting because you

147
00:07:00,410 --> 00:07:03,140
know that if you get sick or injured,
you're gonna need other people to do it.

148
00:07:03,560 --> 00:07:07,130
So what I'm getting at is this
kind of a modality of existence.

149
00:07:07,850 --> 00:07:11,510
Where the fundamental lens by which
we looked through, we looked at

150
00:07:11,510 --> 00:07:15,950
life was kind of a group lens, um,
a taking care of each other lens.

151
00:07:16,820 --> 00:07:19,070
And now you look at our culture
and we call it atomized.

152
00:07:19,070 --> 00:07:20,600
It's a highly atomized culture.

153
00:07:21,050 --> 00:07:23,210
So there's breakdown everywhere.

154
00:07:23,210 --> 00:07:25,700
So there's breakdown
in larger communities.

155
00:07:25,700 --> 00:07:27,020
There's breakdown in families.

156
00:07:27,020 --> 00:07:28,850
There's breakdowns all over the place.

157
00:07:29,330 --> 00:07:32,480
You know, one of the big problems
though I often hear about is that, um,

158
00:07:32,510 --> 00:07:35,930
you know, sporting groups, volunteer
groups, find it harder and harder.

159
00:07:36,350 --> 00:07:39,890
To get, you know, volunteers and to
get people involved because people.

160
00:07:40,610 --> 00:07:44,450
Very much withdraw into their
very small circles of existence.

161
00:07:44,990 --> 00:07:48,470
You know, he, where I live, we have
really cold winters and it's kind of like

162
00:07:48,800 --> 00:07:50,720
most of this city goes into hibernation.

163
00:07:50,720 --> 00:07:54,020
Like people just stay indoors
for long periods of time.

164
00:07:54,530 --> 00:07:58,640
But the purpose of this message
is to encourage all of us.

165
00:07:59,570 --> 00:08:02,900
To begin to think about doing life
a little bit differently, which is.

166
00:08:03,770 --> 00:08:08,780
Shifting our fundamental way of being,
and it's a way of being at the moment

167
00:08:08,780 --> 00:08:13,940
that is massively reinforced through
media and marketing through social media.

168
00:08:13,940 --> 00:08:19,880
It's a highly individualistic, self
referential self-absorbed vision

169
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:21,170
of what it means to be happy.

170
00:08:21,170 --> 00:08:24,650
How do you be happy where you
maximize your own individual success?

171
00:08:25,010 --> 00:08:25,910
How do you be happy?

172
00:08:25,910 --> 00:08:28,790
You maximize your own sense
of personal happiness.

173
00:08:29,690 --> 00:08:30,740
The problem with that.

174
00:08:30,740 --> 00:08:32,539
Is this not how we've evolved?

175
00:08:32,539 --> 00:08:36,230
It's just not, we've evolved to
actually take care of each other.

176
00:08:36,860 --> 00:08:39,380
So I'm beginning to wonder about.

177
00:08:40,100 --> 00:08:41,059
Is it possible?

178
00:08:41,839 --> 00:08:43,880
The one of the most powerful ways out of.

179
00:08:44,689 --> 00:08:47,329
Depression negativity, unhappiness.

180
00:08:48,620 --> 00:08:52,880
The misery that can come from
endless self absorption would be too.

181
00:08:53,449 --> 00:08:56,780
Refocus a lot of our energy on service.

182
00:08:57,350 --> 00:08:59,449
Of people on outward focus.

183
00:09:00,439 --> 00:09:03,140
You know, some of these things
have come to us in life naturally,

184
00:09:03,140 --> 00:09:06,260
like being a parent, for
example, with three young kids.

185
00:09:06,800 --> 00:09:09,949
You know, Being of service is optional.

186
00:09:09,949 --> 00:09:10,670
It's not optional.

187
00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:10,790
So.

188
00:09:11,329 --> 00:09:13,100
I should say not optional.

189
00:09:13,910 --> 00:09:17,630
What is optional is the energy
and the joy that you bring to it.

190
00:09:17,630 --> 00:09:17,870
Right.

191
00:09:17,870 --> 00:09:19,850
Because it's very, very possible.

192
00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:23,540
To do the basics that you
have to do as a parent.

193
00:09:23,540 --> 00:09:25,280
Well, you know, they haven't starved.

194
00:09:25,550 --> 00:09:27,290
They haven't been eaten by wolves.

195
00:09:28,339 --> 00:09:29,270
Anything else I've missed.

196
00:09:29,329 --> 00:09:30,140
No, that's about it.

197
00:09:30,140 --> 00:09:30,829
They haven't starved.

198
00:09:30,829 --> 00:09:32,000
They haven't been eaten by wolves.

199
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:32,480
We're good.

200
00:09:33,079 --> 00:09:37,339
That's that's one level of commitment
and energy given by a parent.

201
00:09:37,339 --> 00:09:37,640
Right.

202
00:09:38,780 --> 00:09:41,360
And not having your children
eaten by wolves is a good thing.

203
00:09:41,360 --> 00:09:44,000
Let me just clarify, right,
because just write this down.

204
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:47,060
If you do have your children in
Bibles, you have filed at some point.

205
00:09:47,089 --> 00:09:47,390
Okay.

206
00:09:48,020 --> 00:09:48,380
Now.

207
00:09:49,220 --> 00:09:50,510
You can do so much more that, right.

208
00:09:50,510 --> 00:09:51,980
And you can do that basic stuff.

209
00:09:51,980 --> 00:09:55,100
You can provide food, you can provide
shelter, you can provide education,

210
00:09:55,100 --> 00:09:57,079
but you can go so far beyond that.

211
00:09:58,189 --> 00:10:01,339
And what I've found is that it
doesn't make me any less exhausted.

212
00:10:01,370 --> 00:10:02,449
I still get tired.

213
00:10:02,449 --> 00:10:06,199
I still get, you know, but Karen would
say, particularly in the last sort

214
00:10:06,199 --> 00:10:11,180
of two to three years, It's had a big
effect on me that I've I've changed.

215
00:10:11,180 --> 00:10:14,449
She said you've, you've
really grown into being.

216
00:10:15,050 --> 00:10:20,060
Uh, husband and father, like my, my
general focus in life as it should be.

217
00:10:20,060 --> 00:10:20,329
Right.

218
00:10:20,329 --> 00:10:20,630
I did.

219
00:10:20,870 --> 00:10:23,150
Um, episode a few episodes, go on GT.

220
00:10:24,050 --> 00:10:26,329
But I actually get a lot of joy out of it.

221
00:10:26,420 --> 00:10:27,380
I get a lot of exhaustion.

222
00:10:27,500 --> 00:10:28,610
But I genuinely do.

223
00:10:28,610 --> 00:10:30,650
And I know some of you are listening,
going, that's not that profound.

224
00:10:30,650 --> 00:10:32,329
Jonathan, you just telling
us you liked being a father.

225
00:10:32,390 --> 00:10:32,870
Well, I do.

226
00:10:32,930 --> 00:10:35,449
I absolutely feel incredibly
honored and blessed to be one.

227
00:10:36,350 --> 00:10:39,110
But I'm trying to point through
my experience to something that's

228
00:10:39,110 --> 00:10:40,880
important for all of us, which is.

229
00:10:41,600 --> 00:10:45,589
The more that we make a
gift of ourselves to others.

230
00:10:47,420 --> 00:10:48,650
The more happiness.

231
00:10:48,980 --> 00:10:51,290
And meaning we will find in life.

232
00:10:53,720 --> 00:10:56,810
You know, I started this message that
I talking about the experience as a

233
00:10:56,839 --> 00:11:00,290
speaker, you know, like I just get on
stage and I just want to help people.

234
00:11:00,290 --> 00:11:02,660
I just Git my energy externalizes.

235
00:11:02,689 --> 00:11:05,780
It comes out of my own
sense of internal reality.

236
00:11:05,780 --> 00:11:10,400
And I want to send that energy out into
the room and, and bless people with it.

237
00:11:11,089 --> 00:11:14,449
Now that energy, that experience
that I have is no different.

238
00:11:14,720 --> 00:11:18,920
In fact to any of the gifts
that any of you listening to.

239
00:11:19,100 --> 00:11:22,339
To this message might have, for
example, Some of you listening to

240
00:11:22,339 --> 00:11:23,540
this will be good public speakers.

241
00:11:23,540 --> 00:11:27,110
Many of you would rather, you know,
tear out your fingernails with

242
00:11:27,140 --> 00:11:28,550
pliers and do public speaking.

243
00:11:28,550 --> 00:11:31,310
There was a graphic image, very
dark keep moving forward, Jonathan.

244
00:11:31,310 --> 00:11:31,550
So.

245
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:34,370
You know, many of you would hate
to do public speaking, but you

246
00:11:34,370 --> 00:11:36,829
would have other remarkable gifts.

247
00:11:37,400 --> 00:11:39,079
And if you're listening to this
and don't think you do have

248
00:11:39,079 --> 00:11:41,750
remarkable gifts, you just wrong
because you do, everybody has them.

249
00:11:41,750 --> 00:11:44,300
It's just part of the, the
price of admission to life.

250
00:11:44,329 --> 00:11:47,360
All of us have unique things
that are special intrinsic to us.

251
00:11:47,750 --> 00:11:48,920
But my point is.

252
00:11:49,579 --> 00:11:53,510
The more that you take those natural
talents and externalize them out

253
00:11:53,510 --> 00:11:55,280
and offer them in service to others.

254
00:11:55,819 --> 00:11:58,760
Let's look at so much of our world
at the moment, the news cycle,

255
00:11:58,790 --> 00:12:00,199
it's death, it's destruction.

256
00:12:00,199 --> 00:12:00,920
It's fear.

257
00:12:00,920 --> 00:12:01,610
It's loss.

258
00:12:01,610 --> 00:12:02,569
It's be afraid.

259
00:12:02,569 --> 00:12:03,260
Be afraid.

260
00:12:03,260 --> 00:12:04,040
Be afraid.

261
00:12:04,550 --> 00:12:07,189
You know, look after yourself,
make sure you're prepared

262
00:12:07,189 --> 00:12:08,750
for this next terrible thing.

263
00:12:09,470 --> 00:12:12,260
It's just us finding
what's that stuff anymore.

264
00:12:12,709 --> 00:12:15,319
Because I'm just trying to
do it on a different level.

265
00:12:15,319 --> 00:12:17,390
Now just do life on a
different level, which is.

266
00:12:18,560 --> 00:12:23,000
How in general, as often as possible
can I serve how in general, as

267
00:12:23,000 --> 00:12:26,569
often as possible, can I make
some positive impact on somebody's

268
00:12:26,569 --> 00:12:27,650
life and just keep doing that?

269
00:12:27,650 --> 00:12:30,890
Just keep rolling it over and doing it
again and again and again, and again.

270
00:12:31,310 --> 00:12:33,439
Some of us will do it in
big, spectacular ways.

271
00:12:33,439 --> 00:12:35,870
And we'll get, you know,
national recognition.

272
00:12:36,470 --> 00:12:39,740
Most of us will do it in ways that, uh,
you know, never going to be recognized

273
00:12:39,770 --> 00:12:43,790
more by, by anyone else in the two or
three people that you really doing it for.

274
00:12:44,390 --> 00:12:45,079
So friends.

275
00:12:45,079 --> 00:12:49,850
A summary of this message today
is recognized that as a species.

276
00:12:50,180 --> 00:12:53,780
We're actually highly optimized
to care for each other.

277
00:12:54,350 --> 00:12:57,650
Recognize that as a species,
we are living under social and

278
00:12:57,650 --> 00:13:01,579
cultural conditions and economic
conditions and political conditions.

279
00:13:02,209 --> 00:13:04,310
That and technological conditions.

280
00:13:04,310 --> 00:13:04,850
Everyone's likes w.

281
00:13:04,939 --> 00:13:06,560
Will you stop with the
conditions, but you get it.

282
00:13:06,589 --> 00:13:09,260
We live in this environment where
like fish swimming in an aquarium

283
00:13:09,290 --> 00:13:10,970
and all of what's surrounding is.

284
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:15,500
Is pulling us away from that
natural way that we've been created.

285
00:13:15,949 --> 00:13:16,339
Yes.

286
00:13:16,339 --> 00:13:18,140
We have darkness in us as well as light.

287
00:13:18,170 --> 00:13:19,459
Yes, we can be selfish.

288
00:13:19,459 --> 00:13:20,630
All those things are real.

289
00:13:21,500 --> 00:13:22,280
But I think.

290
00:13:22,610 --> 00:13:26,720
One of the fast tracks to be happy is
just to take the natural, raw material

291
00:13:26,720 --> 00:13:30,199
of your gifting and your talent
and use it as often as widely, as

292
00:13:30,199 --> 00:13:32,780
consistently as possible to bless other.

293
00:13:32,780 --> 00:13:33,439
Uh, people.

294
00:13:33,439 --> 00:13:36,470
So here's your homework within the
next 24 hours of hearing this go

295
00:13:36,500 --> 00:13:41,120
and do something for someone go and
just do something outrageously kind.

296
00:13:41,569 --> 00:13:42,020
Okay.

297
00:13:42,110 --> 00:13:43,280
Just go and do something.

298
00:13:43,640 --> 00:13:47,420
Just serve, just go serve, serving your
family, serving your schools, serving

299
00:13:47,449 --> 00:13:51,380
your business, serving your street,
wherever you can do anything to help

300
00:13:51,380 --> 00:13:55,100
somebody go and do it and then do more
of it and more of it and more of it.

301
00:13:55,430 --> 00:13:59,030
And it may not necessarily make you
rich and it may not necessarily make you

302
00:13:59,030 --> 00:14:03,410
famous, but at the end of your life, you
will look back and say, you know what?

303
00:14:03,410 --> 00:14:04,400
It wasn't that bad.

304
00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:05,990
I made some sort of difference.

305
00:14:06,260 --> 00:14:11,750
I had rich precious relationships and
I did the best I could with what I had.

306
00:14:12,260 --> 00:14:14,600
If you can say those sorts
of things, then you have one.

307
00:14:14,900 --> 00:14:17,959
The graveyard is full of millionaires
and billionaires friends.

308
00:14:17,959 --> 00:14:21,560
The goal of life is not to be the
richest person in the graveyard.

309
00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:25,699
The goal of life is to take your precious,
beautiful gifts and help the world

310
00:14:25,699 --> 00:14:27,589
become a fractionally better place.

311
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,000
Because you externalize them and made
somebody else's life a little bit better.

312
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:35,839
And now is your chance to make
my life a little bit better.
