Great.

24
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:56,950
I'm going to share with you a great.

25
00:00:57,790 --> 00:01:00,490
I don't know what a great is,
but as soon as I find it, I'm

26
00:01:00,490 --> 00:01:01,270
going to share it with you.

27
00:01:01,270 --> 00:01:03,580
But meanwhile, while we're
waiting for the Guede.

28
00:01:04,030 --> 00:01:09,580
I'm going to share with you a great quote
from the really interesting Uttar Haagen.

29
00:01:10,810 --> 00:01:13,780
it was an actress and
a theater practitioner.

30
00:01:14,320 --> 00:01:17,170
In the United States in the
sort of 1960s and seventies.

31
00:01:17,830 --> 00:01:22,390
A woman who deeply, deeply loved her
craft and was incredibly committed to it.

32
00:01:22,390 --> 00:01:23,560
I actually believe it or not.

33
00:01:23,560 --> 00:01:23,860
Did.

34
00:01:24,220 --> 00:01:28,450
Undergraduate drama at a university
or college for my American friends.

35
00:01:28,900 --> 00:01:32,680
And, uh, you know, I actually came
across quite a few of these fascinating

36
00:01:32,680 --> 00:01:33,880
men and women who developed.

37
00:01:34,150 --> 00:01:37,360
Some really interesting approaches
to acting in theater and drama.

38
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:40,660
And, uh, gosh, I'm glad that there
were no smartphones back then.

39
00:01:40,900 --> 00:01:45,220
Some of the videos or some of the, some
of the acting and drama that I was doing.

40
00:01:45,430 --> 00:01:45,670
Yeah.

41
00:01:45,670 --> 00:01:46,480
I'll tell you a story.

42
00:01:46,810 --> 00:01:48,520
Once I remember being in this room.

43
00:01:49,060 --> 00:01:52,390
And if you've met me in person, I'm a bit
of a kind of guys guy in a sense, right?

44
00:01:52,390 --> 00:01:55,660
Like I do a lot of weights, I'm
kind of into that sort of stuff.

45
00:01:55,660 --> 00:01:55,810
And.

46
00:01:56,320 --> 00:01:59,530
Picture me in an undergraduate drama
classroom, this really happened.

47
00:01:59,530 --> 00:02:03,520
And they had this amazing lady who'd
come all the way from Canada and she

48
00:02:03,520 --> 00:02:05,740
was teaching, um, movement theory.

49
00:02:07,330 --> 00:02:08,410
I'm not making this up.

50
00:02:08,440 --> 00:02:09,370
I'm sitting there.

51
00:02:10,000 --> 00:02:12,130
I think I was in a rugby
Jersey or rugby top.

52
00:02:12,970 --> 00:02:15,700
And she just singled me out and
she said, Jonathan, stand up.

53
00:02:15,730 --> 00:02:17,650
And I'm like really nervous at this point.

54
00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:18,670
So I stood up.

55
00:02:19,300 --> 00:02:22,090
And she said, Jonathan,
dance, your emotions.

56
00:02:23,830 --> 00:02:26,200
And time just stood still my friends.

57
00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:29,470
I've just, I was just standing thinking,
well, first I don't have emotions and if

58
00:02:29,470 --> 00:02:31,360
I did, I wouldn't be dancing them for you.

59
00:02:31,870 --> 00:02:34,930
Um, so, uh, but I, I don't
remember what happened.

60
00:02:34,930 --> 00:02:37,210
I think a memory hold
that I've blacked it out.

61
00:02:37,600 --> 00:02:40,600
I'm unsure if I can remember what I
did, but I did something I survived.

62
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:41,860
So anyway, long story, but.

63
00:02:42,700 --> 00:02:45,430
Definitely had some exposure
to dance and drama theory.

64
00:02:45,580 --> 00:02:46,600
People are interesting, right?

65
00:02:47,350 --> 00:02:48,940
Most of you wouldn't
have known that about me.

66
00:02:49,180 --> 00:02:49,750
Scenario Udo.

67
00:02:49,780 --> 00:02:55,540
The Haagen is a, a really influential
drummer and movement teacher.

68
00:02:55,540 --> 00:02:58,090
So she spent so much of her
life trying to help people.

69
00:02:58,420 --> 00:03:02,800
Discover and unleash their unique
gifts in that particular space.

70
00:03:02,800 --> 00:03:04,930
So listen to this quote, I want
to share with you, she says this.

71
00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:10,270
We must overcome the notion
that we must be regular.

72
00:03:10,690 --> 00:03:13,480
It robs you of the chance
to be extraordinary.

73
00:03:13,900 --> 00:03:16,360
And leads you to the mediocre.

74
00:03:17,260 --> 00:03:18,280
There is a lot in that.

75
00:03:18,820 --> 00:03:23,290
So this idea that we must be regular in
the pot, in the YouTube version today,

76
00:03:23,290 --> 00:03:26,440
if you want to click across to that, I
go into more detail on this, but I made

77
00:03:26,440 --> 00:03:30,760
the point that, you know, think back to
primary school, elementary school, high

78
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:35,380
school, there was not a lot of upside
for standing out from the crowd, right?

79
00:03:35,380 --> 00:03:38,170
Like we learned from a
very young age to kind of.

80
00:03:38,410 --> 00:03:41,290
You know, sometimes bury some
of the magic that's inside us.

81
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:41,530
Right.

82
00:03:41,530 --> 00:03:43,000
We don't want to stand out too much.

83
00:03:43,930 --> 00:03:46,540
It's really interesting because
this is a species we've definitely

84
00:03:46,540 --> 00:03:49,780
learned to value group belonging.

85
00:03:50,140 --> 00:03:54,490
But we also, especially at this moment in
history, have a great interest in unique

86
00:03:54,490 --> 00:03:56,590
and uniquely gifted and talented people.

87
00:03:56,590 --> 00:03:56,860
Right.

88
00:03:57,310 --> 00:03:57,400
Yeah.

89
00:03:57,430 --> 00:03:59,320
Look at your Elon Musks, people like that.

90
00:03:59,320 --> 00:03:59,350
You.

91
00:03:59,470 --> 00:04:02,020
We all get sort of fascinated by
their lives and wonder of their.

92
00:04:02,380 --> 00:04:03,310
Remarkably different.

93
00:04:03,310 --> 00:04:04,540
I don't think they're
remarkably different.

94
00:04:04,540 --> 00:04:05,500
I think what they've done.

95
00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:11,350
He's been able to identify their
unique superpowers and then they've

96
00:04:11,350 --> 00:04:14,410
been lucky enough and Lux important
because you can have tons of people

97
00:04:14,410 --> 00:04:15,760
that don't get the same opportunities.

98
00:04:15,760 --> 00:04:16,060
Right.

99
00:04:16,480 --> 00:04:18,880
But they've had the luck to be in
systems and structures that have

100
00:04:18,880 --> 00:04:20,680
allowed them to pursue those goals.

101
00:04:21,190 --> 00:04:23,770
And then we re we sort of
Marvel at them because they're

102
00:04:23,770 --> 00:04:24,970
the definitely not mediocre.

103
00:04:25,000 --> 00:04:25,900
They're extraordinary.

104
00:04:26,200 --> 00:04:28,630
So the question is, are all of
us capable of the same thing?

105
00:04:28,660 --> 00:04:30,580
I think unequivocally, yes.

106
00:04:31,060 --> 00:04:34,390
In the video today, I say, look,
the 7 billion people on the planet.

107
00:04:34,420 --> 00:04:35,200
Give or take.

108
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:39,190
And every single person has
unique gifts and abilities.

109
00:04:39,640 --> 00:04:40,420
You know, I'm thinking of that.

110
00:04:40,420 --> 00:04:41,320
I'm amazing.

111
00:04:41,320 --> 00:04:42,700
Motivational speaker, Nick.

112
00:04:42,730 --> 00:04:46,660
I can't remember his last name
who was born with a rare condition

113
00:04:46,660 --> 00:04:49,000
and did not have ums or legs.

114
00:04:49,570 --> 00:04:51,400
Some of you will know exactly
who I'm talking about.

115
00:04:52,000 --> 00:04:55,570
And he's gone on to be one of the most
brilliant motivational speakers, you

116
00:04:55,570 --> 00:04:57,490
know, he's just had a massive impact.

117
00:04:57,910 --> 00:05:02,050
So despite the limitations, he
was still able to identify these

118
00:05:02,050 --> 00:05:03,850
unique gifts and talents inside him.

119
00:05:04,420 --> 00:05:06,730
So I just truly believe that
every single one of us has these

120
00:05:06,730 --> 00:05:09,010
unique capacities and abilities.

121
00:05:09,010 --> 00:05:10,390
So I want to say to you today,

122
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:13,690
Are you in touch with your
unique gifts and abilities?

123
00:05:13,720 --> 00:05:15,370
Do you, do you hide them?

124
00:05:15,460 --> 00:05:15,850
Have you.

125
00:05:16,300 --> 00:05:19,780
Did you make a bog and years
ago to kind of, not really.

126
00:05:20,050 --> 00:05:22,990
Be who you really are and sort
of hide some of that stuff.

127
00:05:23,020 --> 00:05:24,880
Look, we've all got,
you know, commitments.

128
00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:29,050
We've all got, uh, You know, expectations
upon our lives, things that we have to do.

129
00:05:29,740 --> 00:05:33,910
But we need to try and make sure that
that doesn't allow us to bury that

130
00:05:33,910 --> 00:05:37,630
unique and unique giftedness that's
inside every single one of this.

131
00:05:38,050 --> 00:05:41,080
So my message for you today, my friend
is, as you go through the day, I want

132
00:05:41,080 --> 00:05:42,220
you to start thinking about this.

133
00:05:42,220 --> 00:05:44,230
When you start meditating
a bit upon this idea.

134
00:05:44,920 --> 00:05:45,880
Are you being regular?

135
00:05:46,030 --> 00:05:48,070
Have you lost your chance
to be extraordinary?

136
00:05:48,070 --> 00:05:51,940
Are you, are you feeling that things
are a bit mediocre because it's no one's

137
00:05:51,940 --> 00:05:54,400
fault, but there's always time, right?

138
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:57,280
There's always time while
you've still got breath.

139
00:05:57,310 --> 00:05:58,690
There is still chance to.

140
00:05:59,410 --> 00:06:03,520
Check in with yourself to reconnect
to those special, unique gifts and

141
00:06:03,520 --> 00:06:05,230
abilities that have always been there.

142
00:06:05,230 --> 00:06:08,170
And that the world still
desperately needs to receive.

143
00:06:08,710 --> 00:06:09,520
From you.

144
00:06:09,790 --> 00:06:10,180
Okay.

145
00:06:10,840 --> 00:06:13,690
So in cosmic history, there has never
been another one of you and there

146
00:06:13,690 --> 00:06:15,160
will never be another one of you.

147
00:06:15,640 --> 00:06:16,930
So let's not be mediocre.

148
00:06:16,930 --> 00:06:19,030
Let's go for the extraordinary,
this is not arrogance.

149
00:06:19,060 --> 00:06:20,200
This is not pride.

150
00:06:20,470 --> 00:06:24,430
This is simply living the fullness
of Hebrew credits to be in the video.

151
00:06:24,430 --> 00:06:25,750
Again, I was talking about my kids.

152
00:06:25,750 --> 00:06:26,710
I say, I'm a parent.

153
00:06:27,310 --> 00:06:31,450
One of the coolest things you experienced
as a parent is seeing your kids pursue and

154
00:06:31,450 --> 00:06:33,790
develop their unique gifts and abilities.

155
00:06:34,030 --> 00:06:37,090
You don't want your child to look
exactly the same as everybody else.

156
00:06:37,090 --> 00:06:38,470
You're looking for difference.

157
00:06:39,070 --> 00:06:41,080
So that's the message today.

158
00:06:41,110 --> 00:06:43,150
I hope it's an
encouragement to all of you.

00:06:43,930 --> 00:06:46,210
