00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:22.949
Everybody.
00:00:22.949 --> 00:00:24.000
Steven Rii here.
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:25.199
Breathe bitch.com.
00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:27.359
Thank you for joining us again for another episode.
00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:30.899
This episode is progress, not perfection.
00:00:31.309 --> 00:00:34.189
And the thing is, we're just trying to get you to do that thing.
00:00:34.189 --> 00:00:34.820
Just do it.
00:00:34.820 --> 00:00:38.090
Start working on it instead of thinking about it, just do it.
00:00:38.090 --> 00:00:41.159
It does not have to be perfect to get it out there.
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.340
Just start going, you get too perfection by doing the thing.
00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:44.880
Simple as that.
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:54.859
So this part of our IG series, and if not familiar with it, it's what I do is I take one of my IG videos, Instagram videos, and they're only about a minute and a half long.
00:00:55.295 --> 00:00:56.104
Typically.
00:00:56.494 --> 00:01:01.054
I gotta rerecord the things because I have so much I wanna say in it, and I always go over.
00:01:01.054 --> 00:01:03.634
So I gotta rerecord it and short it down and short it down.
00:01:03.634 --> 00:01:05.944
So it'll fit it in that minute and a half.
00:01:05.944 --> 00:01:11.644
But now I get to expand the thing and give you guys the full mindset of where I was in that video.
00:01:11.944 --> 00:01:14.015
And so we're gonna play this video real quick.
00:01:14.015 --> 00:01:15.875
This clip from the IG series.
00:01:16.215 --> 00:01:25.245
And it is about, again, just starting and doing that thing, if you've got that goal that's something that lights you up or whatever the case may be, just start doing it.
00:01:25.605 --> 00:01:26.864
It don't have to be perfect.
00:01:26.864 --> 00:01:27.825
Get it out there.
00:01:28.135 --> 00:01:30.144
Be bad at it first.
00:01:30.144 --> 00:01:30.415
Nothing.
00:01:30.415 --> 00:01:31.105
No problem with that.
00:01:31.105 --> 00:01:36.534
Alright, so let's go ahead and we'll play this clip real quick and.
00:01:38.670 --> 00:01:40.349
There we go everybody.
00:01:40.349 --> 00:01:42.329
I'm out here at the park today going for a walk.
00:01:42.659 --> 00:01:43.650
Some big announcements.
00:01:43.650 --> 00:01:44.730
Got some big things happening.
00:01:44.730 --> 00:01:45.390
The end of March.
00:01:45.390 --> 00:01:46.200
Not gonna tell you what they are.
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.819
There's they keep your eyes out.
00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:49.870
Some big things happening.
00:01:49.870 --> 00:01:50.890
I'm pretty excited about it.
00:01:51.299 --> 00:01:53.579
But if you've been to my website, breathe bitch.com.
00:01:53.609 --> 00:01:54.060
It's a mess.
00:01:54.060 --> 00:01:55.140
It's an absolute mess.
00:01:55.140 --> 00:01:56.370
Links don't work on it.
00:01:56.655 --> 00:01:58.754
Bad spelling, bad grammar, you name it like that.
00:01:58.905 --> 00:02:01.004
And I've had that site out there for about a year.
00:02:01.094 --> 00:02:02.084
And you might say, Steven, why?
00:02:02.084 --> 00:02:02.984
Why would you do such thing?
00:02:02.984 --> 00:02:04.754
Why would you launch a site when it looks like that, I.
00:02:05.004 --> 00:02:11.395
Because I'm pretty good with SEO search engine optimization, and I know one of the key factors of something ranking is its age.
00:02:11.875 --> 00:02:13.044
So I'm gonna go ahead and throw that out there.
00:02:13.044 --> 00:02:14.365
I knew I was gonna do something with it.
00:02:14.365 --> 00:02:16.085
And by the way we're working on it now.
00:02:16.085 --> 00:02:17.585
Get looking better.
00:02:17.585 --> 00:02:26.555
There's gonna be all kinds of great stuff on there, but we already rank number one in Fort Myers for breath work, sometimes three in Tampa, sometimes we're in the second page, Miami back and forth.
00:02:27.215 --> 00:02:28.354
But where am I going with this?
00:02:28.354 --> 00:02:37.025
Where I'm going with this is if there's something that you're sitting on that you want to do that lights you up, but you wanna make sure it's perfect before you launch it, don't go do that thing.
00:02:37.025 --> 00:02:38.314
It does not have to be perfect.
00:02:38.314 --> 00:02:42.965
Go launch that thing because I can promise you this, if you wait for it to be perfect, it'll never come to Fruitation.
00:02:43.294 --> 00:02:44.495
Go do that thing.
00:02:44.495 --> 00:02:45.995
Make it reality because.
00:02:46.409 --> 00:02:49.469
Even if you think you've got it figured out, that game's gonna change anyway.
00:02:49.469 --> 00:02:50.340
So do it.
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:51.569
Get started.
00:02:51.689 --> 00:02:53.430
Make it reality and be fluid.
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:55.500
Be fluid and change as you go.
00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:56.580
And you'll figure it out as you go.
00:02:56.580 --> 00:03:01.710
So we'll go do that thing that lights you up and I'm gonna tell you what, get that passion for life back again.
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:02.610
It's amazing.
00:03:02.909 --> 00:03:03.629
That's all I got for you.
00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:06.719
Alright, so that's the IG reel.
00:03:07.030 --> 00:03:11.050
Again, check us out on Instagram, breathe bitch, all kinds of different reels in there.
00:03:11.050 --> 00:03:13.509
I don't make videos out of our podcast, out of all of them.
00:03:13.509 --> 00:03:15.189
So there's some on there that you may be missing.
00:03:15.189 --> 00:03:15.250
I.
00:03:15.534 --> 00:03:18.955
And may find one or two that resonate with you might help you out in a situation.
00:03:18.955 --> 00:03:19.764
So keep that in mind.
00:03:19.764 --> 00:03:31.645
So again, my intention for this video is that it's gonna help you just get started to launch that thing and get moving in a forward direction so you could be the higher version of yourself and reach that goal of yours.
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:39.740
As I said you can screw around and talk about the thing forever, but doing the thing is completely different.
00:03:39.740 --> 00:03:45.020
Now, I know you couldn't see this if you're listening to the podcast unless you're watching a video version of this thing.
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:51.110
I held my cell phone up to the microphone and that's how I played that video off of Instagram.
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:53.539
Now, my original plan was to.
00:03:54.199 --> 00:04:00.530
Do a screen recording of it and paste that in into the video and into the podcast.
00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:07.039
That way for the video version of it, you'll see the video that was on Instagram and you guys will be able to hear it and it'll roll into it.
00:04:07.580 --> 00:04:13.069
But I was having problems with it and I don't know,'cause sometimes Instagram will block it.
00:04:13.099 --> 00:04:16.100
If you have background music, which I did have background music on that one.
00:04:16.964 --> 00:04:20.725
They'll block the downloads or they'll, when you download it, they'll be silent.
00:04:21.095 --> 00:04:29.194
I tried to do a screen recording of a couple different ones and for some reason it may have been the internet at that point in time, or may have been my computer, or may have been Instagram, I don't know.
00:04:29.435 --> 00:04:30.665
But it was giving me hangups.
00:04:30.665 --> 00:04:33.935
And you know what I said, I could have tried it again today, but I just said, screw it.
00:04:33.935 --> 00:04:34.834
Let's move forward with it.
00:04:34.834 --> 00:04:36.095
Let's get it done.
00:04:36.435 --> 00:04:42.134
Because I set myself a deadline on getting some of these podcasts done and that was gonna hold me up.
00:04:42.209 --> 00:04:44.370
And I'm not screwing around.
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:44.970
I'm doing it.
00:04:44.970 --> 00:04:46.470
So that's why I just held the phone up.
00:04:46.470 --> 00:04:48.720
There might've been a little ghetto, but I don't care.
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:50.129
That's just how we operate sometimes.
00:04:50.220 --> 00:04:52.170
Sometimes we gotta get a little ghetto to get things done.
00:04:52.529 --> 00:04:53.189
Simple as that.
00:04:53.189 --> 00:04:54.329
Nothing wrong with that.
00:04:54.379 --> 00:04:55.310
So simple as that.
00:04:55.500 --> 00:05:08.279
There's a big difference in talking about the thing, walking about the thing, thinking about the thing, laying around about the thing, but doing the thing.
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.149
Is the thing that gets you where you want to be.
00:05:12.209 --> 00:05:13.139
Simple as that.
00:05:13.709 --> 00:05:18.839
And again, I could have been sitting here and researching different ways how to get that video off of Instagram and all this thing.
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:20.540
But I didn't, I said, let's just do it.
00:05:20.540 --> 00:05:21.620
Lets, let's move forward with it.
00:05:21.620 --> 00:05:25.250
So you need to find your thing that you lights you up.
00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:26.240
That's what you need to do.
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.699
You need to find something that lights you up and move forward to it.
00:05:28.850 --> 00:05:29.420
And.
00:05:30.514 --> 00:05:34.475
This is not part of the book that we're working on, but this will definitely be a part of the book.
00:05:34.475 --> 00:05:37.834
This is, again, this is on my IG series, but so we've got another series going on as well too.
00:05:37.834 --> 00:05:43.654
If you're not familiar with it, it's called Breathe Bitch, your Journey to Peace, power, and Purpose.
00:05:44.045 --> 00:05:49.894
And definitely in that purpose section we're gonna, have things in, things that you can look at that possibly might light you up?
00:05:49.894 --> 00:05:52.564
Goals, we definitely want you to find that thing that lights you up.
00:05:52.714 --> 00:05:54.274
Breathe, bitch lights me up.
00:05:54.995 --> 00:05:56.584
I love to be able to help people out.
00:05:57.004 --> 00:06:00.475
This is what that it's really, it's been life changing for me.
00:06:00.834 --> 00:06:07.555
I cannot believe, you know how many times I wake up to messages in the morning from somebody who watched all my videos or something like that just happened this morning.
00:06:07.555 --> 00:06:11.095
I woke up and a woman said, oh my gosh, I'm so glad I found your videos.
00:06:11.375 --> 00:06:13.966
I was in this horrible narcissist relationship da.
00:06:14.293 --> 00:06:17.463
And some of your videos really resonated with me and they really helped me out.
00:06:17.653 --> 00:06:18.584
That lights me up.
00:06:18.584 --> 00:06:19.543
That lights me up.
00:06:19.543 --> 00:06:25.783
I'm like, man, I don't even know who she is, but my video helped her out and I sent her some more advice as well too.
00:06:26.084 --> 00:06:27.163
And I told her to keep watching.
00:06:27.223 --> 00:06:29.084
We're gonna have some things that's definitely gonna be help her out.
00:06:29.084 --> 00:06:30.434
So you gotta find that thing that lights you up.
00:06:30.733 --> 00:06:31.814
What is that thing?
00:06:32.204 --> 00:06:33.434
And you might say I don't have a thing.
00:06:33.963 --> 00:06:34.954
What is your talent?
00:06:35.014 --> 00:06:35.824
What do you do?
00:06:35.884 --> 00:06:38.403
There's so many different things out there.
00:06:38.584 --> 00:06:39.303
Do you read?
00:06:39.303 --> 00:06:40.264
Do you like to read?
00:06:40.264 --> 00:06:41.593
Okay you might as well.
00:06:41.624 --> 00:06:42.043
Okay.
00:06:42.043 --> 00:06:43.963
How do I kinda help Read To the Blind?
00:06:44.173 --> 00:06:52.103
That's something that might light you up, read to the blind read to the elderly who, who don't want to read anymore, can't read whatever the case may be.
00:06:52.163 --> 00:06:53.603
Especially in a memory care area.
00:06:54.064 --> 00:06:55.293
Are you good at math?
00:06:55.473 --> 00:06:57.153
Like, why is that gonna help me Tutor?
00:06:57.153 --> 00:06:57.994
You can tutor.
00:06:58.293 --> 00:07:00.603
There's so many different things you can do to help people out.
00:07:00.603 --> 00:07:03.423
Now the things I'm gonna mention are gonna be helping people out'cause that's what lights me up.
00:07:03.423 --> 00:07:04.533
But it doesn't have to be something like that.
00:07:04.744 --> 00:07:06.093
It's whatever it is that lights you up.
00:07:06.478 --> 00:07:09.509
To me there's no better gift than helping other people out.
00:07:09.509 --> 00:07:10.798
That, to me is true.
00:07:10.798 --> 00:07:19.559
Success is the success is graded by how many people your success is rated, excuse me, by how many people you help out.
00:07:19.619 --> 00:07:21.178
And that's just how I live my life.
00:07:21.178 --> 00:07:22.978
But it, you may live your a little bit differently.
00:07:23.524 --> 00:07:32.314
And again, so you could do tutoring if you're a handyman, you could do some free services for somebody or help somebody out do to reduce paid services.
00:07:32.314 --> 00:07:34.264
'cause I know you gotta pay for material and all that stuff.
00:07:34.564 --> 00:07:40.514
Gardening maybe you like to garden, like how am I gonna garden and donate some of your vegetables to some needy families.
00:07:40.749 --> 00:07:41.559
Simple as that.
00:07:41.658 --> 00:07:44.723
But the trick is to start doing the thing.
00:07:44.723 --> 00:07:45.803
Get that thing done.
00:07:45.803 --> 00:07:48.553
Now you might say I live up north, I live in south Florida.
00:07:48.553 --> 00:07:50.324
There you can only have a garden year round.
00:07:50.564 --> 00:07:51.704
Just depends on what you're planting.
00:07:52.144 --> 00:07:55.634
But maybe up north, got's snowing, I can't I can't garden now.
00:07:55.634 --> 00:07:58.004
Okay, can you start germinating the seeds inside?
00:07:58.093 --> 00:07:59.144
Can you start doing that?
00:07:59.543 --> 00:08:04.043
Lay out your groundwork or go out there and start digging up the soil, turn tilling the soil.
00:08:04.403 --> 00:08:06.834
Or laying out the area or mapping out what you wanna do.
00:08:07.084 --> 00:08:10.353
Do something, work on that thing, write a plan out.
00:08:10.593 --> 00:08:14.973
But I will tell you this, writing a plan out and doing those other things is not actually doing a thing.
00:08:14.973 --> 00:08:15.963
You gotta do the thing.
00:08:16.014 --> 00:08:21.963
Especially if you're doing something like this with a podcasting or working on the website by the way, we did get our website straightened out.
00:08:21.963 --> 00:08:24.153
It's not completely it's an ever evolving process.
00:08:24.153 --> 00:08:25.954
And then we're gonna talk about that here in just a little bit too.
00:08:26.509 --> 00:08:30.678
But, doing the thing and talking about the thing again, are two different things.
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:35.149
That was, I could sit down and research and I do, I research for all these podcasts that I do.
00:08:35.479 --> 00:08:41.629
'cause, even though I might know a lot of this information, I still want to get some of the best and latest information I possibly can to you guys.
00:08:41.989 --> 00:08:47.418
So I research more before I do one of these podcasts, and I could spend all day doing it.
00:08:47.568 --> 00:08:47.989
And I did.
00:08:47.989 --> 00:08:55.489
And when I first started out I spent so much time doing it and I spent weeks on one particular subject and I'm like.
00:08:55.884 --> 00:08:57.744
How much more can I know about this thing?
00:08:57.744 --> 00:09:00.083
I'm like, just go freaking do the thing.
00:09:00.083 --> 00:09:02.423
And you get this mental block sometimes.
00:09:02.423 --> 00:09:06.923
I don't know if you're like me, but sometimes I get this mental block that I, this holds me back from doing this thing.
00:09:06.923 --> 00:09:08.033
And you just gotta release that.
00:09:08.033 --> 00:09:16.153
Just once you start getting past that block, it opens up a flood gate and you know the difference between working on it and working around it.
00:09:16.364 --> 00:09:17.083
Simple as that.
00:09:17.083 --> 00:09:18.644
So like I said, do that thing.
00:09:18.943 --> 00:09:20.144
Start advertising for that thing.
00:09:20.144 --> 00:09:21.433
Start advertising for it.
00:09:21.433 --> 00:09:22.514
I'm big about that.
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:25.894
Things that I start doing and I've got, I've got a couple different companies.
00:09:25.894 --> 00:09:27.423
I got a couple different things that I do.
00:09:28.114 --> 00:09:35.464
Start advertising for it, and even if you're not ready to do it, because again, that helps with the SEO, it gets your name out there.
00:09:36.724 --> 00:09:40.923
I would rather turn away a customer and say, Hey, we're not ready for you yet.
00:09:40.984 --> 00:09:42.634
And now you're building up your database.
00:09:42.663 --> 00:09:45.333
Say, I'm not ready for you yet, but we will soon.
00:09:45.333 --> 00:09:50.614
Thank you for reaching out and let me hold you in onto your information and when we're ready, I'm gonna let you know.
00:09:50.884 --> 00:09:51.369
Simple as that.
00:09:51.874 --> 00:10:01.293
I would much rather that than spend all this time, years and effort and this and that and have this polished, perfect thing and release it and then crickets.
00:10:01.474 --> 00:10:02.134
Okay.
00:10:02.134 --> 00:10:04.024
Then find having somebody, some twinkling in.
00:10:04.413 --> 00:10:06.833
That's why I did the website the way I did.
00:10:06.933 --> 00:10:07.984
I did the website.
00:10:08.254 --> 00:10:11.163
Heck, it was out there a year before we really did anything with it.
00:10:11.163 --> 00:10:17.729
I just had other things going on in life and I would work on it a little bit just for SEO purposes and we ranked pretty good.
00:10:17.729 --> 00:10:18.749
We ranked pretty good with it.
00:10:18.958 --> 00:10:20.759
You know it's ever rankings, never.
00:10:21.583 --> 00:10:29.928
Ever continuing battle, but but, I feel comfortable with where we're ranking at, especially at this age in time on it.
00:10:29.969 --> 00:10:35.399
Again, so get your stuff out there, build you a Facebook page for it, whatever the case may be, Instagram page for it.
00:10:35.899 --> 00:10:38.558
All kinds of different things you can do to get out there.
00:10:38.558 --> 00:10:41.448
Maybe you wanna be, maybe you wanna be a yoga instructor.
00:10:41.499 --> 00:10:44.109
Go take the yoga classes and start advertising for the.
00:10:44.528 --> 00:10:45.818
Find out if you wanna work for a studio.
00:10:45.818 --> 00:10:52.839
I know a lot of yoga stocks, the ones that I actually go to yeah, only, yeah, I don't really go to any studios anymore.
00:10:52.839 --> 00:10:53.948
They do it on their own.
00:10:53.948 --> 00:10:55.208
They do it in the parks.
00:10:55.298 --> 00:11:00.339
And I used to go to studios all the time, and I prefer, this is just my preferences.
00:11:00.339 --> 00:11:03.458
I prefer somebody who's not in a studio because the studio's.
00:11:03.948 --> 00:11:05.479
Seem to be so regimented.
00:11:05.538 --> 00:11:10.418
And I hate to say like robotic, it's just okay, downward dog, that or that blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:11:10.839 --> 00:11:14.229
Where these individuals that I use, and they were, they all work together.
00:11:14.229 --> 00:11:15.458
So they all teach the same style.
00:11:15.458 --> 00:11:18.068
It's just a, it's more of a spiritual flow.
00:11:18.068 --> 00:11:21.009
They just go with what's going on and what's happening in the moment.
00:11:21.058 --> 00:11:23.639
And it's not just, here's the book, here's what we did.
00:11:23.729 --> 00:11:26.639
This is the five poses I got laid out for us to do today.
00:11:27.028 --> 00:11:27.749
And blah, blah, blah.
00:11:27.749 --> 00:11:37.318
They just wing, wing it off the top of their heads, but they're good like that, but so again, they find places that, that they do this ad and by doing so, they get to reap more profit that way.
00:11:37.318 --> 00:11:38.188
So advertise that thing.
00:11:38.188 --> 00:11:40.918
So again, if you're gonna be a yoga instructor, start advertising for it.
00:11:40.918 --> 00:11:42.538
Whatever the case may be, whoever you're doing.
00:11:43.078 --> 00:11:43.979
Start a order.
00:11:43.979 --> 00:11:46.259
Some shirts, like this shirt I got on now.
00:11:46.259 --> 00:11:47.639
I got a Breathe bitch shirt on right now.
00:11:47.923 --> 00:11:54.453
You can get these things off of Amazon, you can get'em made locally, and you just get one or two of'em made.
00:11:54.573 --> 00:11:56.403
There you go, start advertising your thing.
00:11:56.403 --> 00:11:59.823
Again, like I said, the important thing is to just start doing that thing.
00:11:59.823 --> 00:12:01.413
It does not have to be perfect.
00:12:03.094 --> 00:12:08.374
This is a bold move in life and it doesn't matter what you're doing, but this is a bold move in life.
00:12:08.403 --> 00:12:13.323
You have to be willing to go and be bad at something.
00:12:13.354 --> 00:12:16.144
Go do that thing and be bad at it.
00:12:16.833 --> 00:12:19.474
And don't worry about who's looking,'cause nobody's looking.
00:12:19.894 --> 00:12:21.634
Go be bad at that thing.
00:12:22.293 --> 00:12:27.604
Pick yourself up, dust your off, dust yourself off, and go move forward and then go be good at it.
00:12:27.964 --> 00:12:32.134
And then fall again and dust yourself off and went and move forward and go be great at it.
00:12:32.313 --> 00:12:33.124
Simple as that.
00:12:33.124 --> 00:12:40.563
That's the progression, every successful person I know, you know when I do a lot of, we used to go to a lot of business conferences and stuff like that, and the saying was, I.
00:12:41.509 --> 00:12:43.849
Every successful person has failed.
00:12:43.969 --> 00:12:46.548
They just failed more than the person who gave up.
00:12:46.859 --> 00:12:52.619
They keep failing and just getting theirselves up and dust themselves off, and that's how you get perfect is by doing those things.
00:12:52.619 --> 00:12:57.839
So go out there, be bad at that thing, then go be good at that thing, and then go be great at that thing.
00:12:57.839 --> 00:13:00.028
So don't be scared, don't worry.
00:13:00.028 --> 00:13:01.798
I'm gonna tell you right now, nobody is looking.
00:13:01.798 --> 00:13:04.499
They'll say, and it says dance like nobody's watching.
00:13:04.658 --> 00:13:05.168
Guess what?
00:13:05.229 --> 00:13:06.099
I got news for you.
00:13:06.099 --> 00:13:08.889
Nobody's watching, and I'm gonna talk about this a little bit later, but you know what?
00:13:09.369 --> 00:13:12.038
There is a hundred, and I just said this in one of my classes the other night.
00:13:12.158 --> 00:13:15.729
There is 111 Nobel Peace Prize winners.
00:13:15.729 --> 00:13:16.928
Can you name three of them?
00:13:16.928 --> 00:13:19.658
Can you name three of those Nobel Peace Prizes?
00:13:20.019 --> 00:13:20.708
Prize winners?
00:13:21.629 --> 00:13:22.019
Probably not.
00:13:22.019 --> 00:13:23.278
Maybe one, maybe two.
00:13:23.278 --> 00:13:24.719
But I guarantee you can't name three.
00:13:24.719 --> 00:13:26.999
And this was the biggest day of these individual's lives.
00:13:27.359 --> 00:13:30.339
These were events that obviously.
00:13:30.774 --> 00:13:36.563
Impacted society themselves is why they get these awards, the things that we do, and we don't even know their name.
00:13:36.653 --> 00:13:38.214
We don't even know their name.
00:13:38.214 --> 00:13:46.583
And I'm not trying to say this to make you feel bad, but I'm just trying to tell you that if we don't know what they've done and it was the most important thing in their life, the most life changing thing they probably have ever done.
00:13:47.354 --> 00:13:52.543
The massive recognition of this thing, this life changing thing that's impacted society.
00:13:52.724 --> 00:13:53.653
We don't know their name.
00:13:54.043 --> 00:13:55.004
Nobody's watching you.
00:13:55.004 --> 00:13:57.073
I can promise you that nobody's watching you.
00:13:57.254 --> 00:13:58.543
Go fail.
00:13:58.663 --> 00:13:58.874
Go.
00:13:59.384 --> 00:14:02.203
Go out there and land flat on your face, baby.
00:14:02.683 --> 00:14:04.033
Then pick yourself up.
00:14:04.033 --> 00:14:07.004
Smile, dust yourself off, and go do it again.
00:14:07.004 --> 00:14:11.144
And land on your elbows this time, and then scrape'em up a little bit.
00:14:11.144 --> 00:14:11.653
Get up.
00:14:12.024 --> 00:14:16.283
With a bigger smile on your face, get yourself off and just stumble down to the knees the next time.
00:14:16.283 --> 00:14:17.423
And the next time, guess what?
00:14:17.514 --> 00:14:18.563
You'll catch yourself.
00:14:18.803 --> 00:14:19.494
You catch yourself.
00:14:19.494 --> 00:14:20.543
'cause then you're being great.
00:14:20.604 --> 00:14:22.644
So go do that thing.
00:14:22.644 --> 00:14:23.033
Don't.
00:14:23.364 --> 00:14:24.894
Don't mess around.
00:14:24.894 --> 00:14:25.764
Don't mess around.
00:14:25.793 --> 00:14:27.293
Don't be scared to go do it.
00:14:27.578 --> 00:14:28.389
Simple as that.
00:14:28.688 --> 00:14:30.818
There will be somebody who's gonna make fun of you.
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:32.139
Screw them.
00:14:32.168 --> 00:14:32.708
You know what?
00:14:32.769 --> 00:14:33.609
What are they doing?
00:14:33.609 --> 00:14:35.828
I can guarantee, I can promise you this.
00:14:35.828 --> 00:14:37.269
I can promise you this.
00:14:37.538 --> 00:14:41.139
If anybody makes fun of you, they are not doing a thing.
00:14:41.379 --> 00:14:42.249
Simple as that.
00:14:42.249 --> 00:14:44.408
They're sitting back watching TV every night.
00:14:44.408 --> 00:14:45.249
They're not doing anything.
00:14:45.278 --> 00:14:54.639
'cause anybody who's done anything of any kind of success in their life will look at you and see where you're at in your journey and recognize themselves in that journey.
00:14:54.984 --> 00:14:56.994
And say, oh, yep, I've been there.
00:14:57.183 --> 00:14:58.833
And they may even throw you some encouraging words.
00:14:58.833 --> 00:15:00.183
So don't yeah.
00:15:00.274 --> 00:15:01.474
Would you fail?
00:15:01.764 --> 00:15:09.234
The great people will recognize that, hey, they're coming up, they're coming up, they're doing exactly what I did when I started out.
00:15:09.234 --> 00:15:12.823
So again, don't ever be embarrassed about what you do.
00:15:12.823 --> 00:15:15.974
That is just some sort of mental block that we have in our own head.
00:15:15.974 --> 00:15:16.813
Simple as that.
00:15:17.323 --> 00:15:22.923
So hear about some tips on how to go and do that thing, how to get started on that thing.
00:15:23.308 --> 00:15:26.489
Here's a, here's one I like this, that says, lower the bar start ugly.
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.288
Lower the bar, start ugly Again.
00:15:28.619 --> 00:15:32.009
Like I said, it does not have to be perfect in any way.
00:15:32.068 --> 00:15:34.869
Be rough, messy, that's what the beginning's all about.
00:15:34.989 --> 00:15:36.548
That's what the beginning's all about.
00:15:36.938 --> 00:15:39.729
Any carving, think about any statue that was made.
00:15:39.729 --> 00:15:41.678
It's gotta start, starts out ugly.
00:15:41.894 --> 00:15:49.344
You know when somebody started, Michelangelo started some beautiful statue they were working on, first couple people walked by okay, yep.
00:15:49.403 --> 00:15:51.053
Looks like a big old rock to me.
00:15:51.474 --> 00:15:55.854
But they weren't there time after time, and maybe they did come back and say, oh wow, what are this beautiful.
00:15:56.239 --> 00:15:57.528
Sculpture come from.
00:15:57.578 --> 00:15:58.418
It just takes time.
00:15:58.418 --> 00:15:59.168
Just takes time.
00:15:59.229 --> 00:16:03.668
And, one of the problems too is you gotta let go of that instant gratification mindset.
00:16:04.089 --> 00:16:07.808
It takes time to be great at something, but here's the thing.
00:16:08.168 --> 00:16:16.548
And if you're doing something that, if time, which everything takes time at, but if you're doing something that seems a little bit harder than what you thought it would be.
00:16:17.239 --> 00:16:20.298
I want you to embrace that'cause I certainly do.
00:16:20.298 --> 00:16:25.249
Now this is something that just popped in my head, but I'm so glad it did because this is such an important message right here.
00:16:25.548 --> 00:16:26.629
If you're doing something.
00:16:28.474 --> 00:16:29.403
I don't care what it is.
00:16:29.644 --> 00:16:37.384
I don't care if you're starting a building company, you're starting something and you're like, oh, this takes far more permits than I thought it was ever gonna take.
00:16:37.384 --> 00:16:40.504
Or this takes far more time to do this than I ever thought it was.
00:16:40.864 --> 00:16:47.744
Doing a Bo a podcast, it took a lot more stuff that I thought than it it was gonna take to do it than I thought.
00:16:48.254 --> 00:16:52.964
But when you run into those walls, those barriers, I want you to embrace that.
00:16:52.964 --> 00:16:55.423
Be like, okay, this is good.
00:16:55.514 --> 00:16:57.163
This is a good thing.
00:16:57.254 --> 00:16:58.964
And you might say why is this a good thing?
00:16:59.354 --> 00:17:02.203
Because this is a barrier that I.
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:04.798
10% of the people are not gonna cross.
00:17:04.798 --> 00:17:06.058
They're gonna give up right there.
00:17:06.118 --> 00:17:08.989
And then when you hit that next barrier, say, okay good.
00:17:09.019 --> 00:17:11.088
The bigger the barrier, the better it is.
00:17:11.088 --> 00:17:16.878
And I want you to know that, and I want you to push through that barrier because that barrier is what holds people back.
00:17:17.028 --> 00:17:18.439
And when it holds people back.
00:17:18.763 --> 00:17:34.394
That's great, because then that allows you to even enter closer to that greatness on the other side because those barriers, again, cut the week away and you're strong and you're gonna push through it, and you're gonna be great because you just keep getting up, dusting yourself off and moving forward.
00:17:34.394 --> 00:17:35.173
Simple as that.
00:17:35.223 --> 00:17:39.544
So that's really the gist of it that you just, you know, you don't let.
00:17:41.169 --> 00:17:46.328
Society laugh at you because if they're laughing, those aren't the people that you're looking up to.
00:17:46.328 --> 00:17:53.618
Because those people will acknowledge where you're at and recognize themselves in that barriers, embrace them.
00:17:53.709 --> 00:17:54.969
Those are good things.
00:17:54.969 --> 00:17:58.328
They're great things because that holds the rest of the people back.
00:17:58.328 --> 00:17:59.439
That's what you want.
00:17:59.808 --> 00:18:01.009
'cause some things are easy.
00:18:01.108 --> 00:18:06.909
Have very easy low barrier entries, and those are tough to get into because the masses get into'em.
00:18:06.909 --> 00:18:11.558
But if you take it deeper and deeper, get across those barriers, that's the beautiful part about it.
00:18:11.648 --> 00:18:13.868
And so that separates you from the rest.
00:18:13.868 --> 00:18:14.618
So simple as that.
00:18:14.618 --> 00:18:18.679
So this is where we're gonna go and start widening it down a little bit.
00:18:18.679 --> 00:18:20.778
I just hope that motivates you to go do that thing.
00:18:21.169 --> 00:18:26.298
Again, whatever that may thing may be, maybe you wanna go be a yoga instructor and help people out find mindfulness.
00:18:26.298 --> 00:18:34.558
Maybe you wanna be a breath work instructor which you can go to our website and we will eventually have something on there to teach people to be instructors on that as well too.
00:18:35.169 --> 00:18:38.538
Or we got a special thing at the end of this book that we're working on.
00:18:38.538 --> 00:18:45.078
I think I did mention that at the beginning of this, the book that we're working on is Breathe Bitch, your Journey to Peace, power, and Purpose.
00:18:45.078 --> 00:18:49.898
And we're gonna have something that people can actually workshops that they can present of the book.
00:18:50.019 --> 00:18:51.479
And that'll be on our website.
00:18:51.479 --> 00:18:52.648
And that's the first time I mentioned that.
00:18:52.648 --> 00:18:53.189
So there you go.
00:18:53.189 --> 00:18:54.328
A little sneak peek of that.
00:18:54.729 --> 00:18:57.249
And that book should be done by the end of the year, hopefully.
00:18:57.663 --> 00:19:03.604
So whether it be something like that or whatever the case may be, tutoring, whatever the case may be, go do that thing.
00:19:03.653 --> 00:19:05.364
Just start doing it now.
00:19:05.394 --> 00:19:06.114
Simple as that.
00:19:06.114 --> 00:19:06.683
Don't wait.
00:19:07.013 --> 00:19:07.733
Just go do that thing.
00:19:07.784 --> 00:19:14.324
Alright, so this is where we're typically gonna take questions from viewers, and again, we're just starting out so we don't have any questions in yet.
00:19:14.324 --> 00:19:20.624
So what you would do if you wanna submit a question, if you need some mindful advice on something, go at our website, breathe bitch.com.
00:19:21.193 --> 00:19:23.294
Scroll down to the podcast section right there.
00:19:23.294 --> 00:19:26.084
Hit the button and that will take you to the podcast page.
00:19:26.114 --> 00:19:29.983
On the podcast page, you're gonna see a spot where you can fill out information.
00:19:30.193 --> 00:19:31.784
You're gonna put your first name, last name.
00:19:32.098 --> 00:19:35.189
State that you're in and you're gonna put in a little message.
00:19:35.189 --> 00:19:46.868
We will not use your name, your last name on the on the air here, but we'll use your first name and what state you're from and we will try to address your situation, trying to look at it through a mindful lens.
00:19:47.118 --> 00:19:54.558
We have the arms WR relationships, and sometimes as you just need that somebody who's not all caught up in it and who can step back and take a look and say, hey.
00:19:55.189 --> 00:19:56.388
This is the perspective.
00:19:56.419 --> 00:19:57.949
Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong.
00:19:57.949 --> 00:19:59.689
Maybe this is how you need to look at things.
00:19:59.689 --> 00:20:03.419
We'll do our best we can to give you our opinion on the situation.
00:20:03.509 --> 00:20:06.028
And again, this is just strictly our opinion on it.
00:20:06.028 --> 00:20:09.548
It's not any type of professional advice, but this is just some mindful advice.
00:20:09.548 --> 00:20:10.659
I've helped plenty of people out.
00:20:10.659 --> 00:20:14.269
So if you got a situation you wanna submit, submit it again.
00:20:14.269 --> 00:20:15.679

Don't forget the E.
00:20:25.159 --> 00:20:28.338
Most people forget the E, so it's Breathe Bitch.
00:20:28.729 --> 00:20:31.159
And you can find me on Facebook.
00:20:31.548 --> 00:20:32.659
Steven Richi.
00:20:32.659 --> 00:20:38.239
They didn't let us use the term bitch on Facebook, and you could find us on TikTok.
00:20:38.449 --> 00:20:39.888
Breathe bitches there as well too.
00:20:40.608 --> 00:20:46.699
So I'm blessed that you listen to this podcast and I hope to see you on the next one.
00:20:46.939 --> 00:20:52.189
And until then, have a blessed and wonderful week and be positive.
00:20:52.459 --> 00:20:56.959
Make mindful choices and mindful choices that align with your higher version of yourself.
00:20:57.318 --> 00:20:57.949
And that's it.
00:20:57.949 --> 00:20:58.729
That's all I got for you.
00:20:58.729 --> 00:20:59.689
We'll see you on the next.
00:00:22.500 --> 00:00:22.949
Everybody.
00:00:22.949 --> 00:00:24.000
Steven Rii here.
00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:25.199
Breathe bitch.com.
00:00:25.199 --> 00:00:27.359
Thank you for joining us again for another episode.
00:00:27.839 --> 00:00:30.899
This episode is progress, not perfection.
00:00:31.309 --> 00:00:34.189
And the thing is, we're just trying to get you to do that thing.
00:00:34.189 --> 00:00:34.820
Just do it.
00:00:34.820 --> 00:00:38.090
Start working on it instead of thinking about it, just do it.
00:00:38.090 --> 00:00:41.159
It does not have to be perfect to get it out there.
00:00:41.159 --> 00:00:44.340
Just start going, you get too perfection by doing the thing.
00:00:44.340 --> 00:00:44.880
Simple as that.
00:00:44.880 --> 00:00:54.859
So this part of our IG series, and if not familiar with it, it's what I do is I take one of my IG videos, Instagram videos, and they're only about a minute and a half long.
00:00:55.295 --> 00:00:56.104
Typically.
00:00:56.494 --> 00:01:01.054
I gotta rerecord the things because I have so much I wanna say in it, and I always go over.
00:01:01.054 --> 00:01:03.634
So I gotta rerecord it and short it down and short it down.
00:01:03.634 --> 00:01:05.944
So it'll fit it in that minute and a half.
00:01:05.944 --> 00:01:11.644
But now I get to expand the thing and give you guys the full mindset of where I was in that video.
00:01:11.944 --> 00:01:14.015
And so we're gonna play this video real quick.
00:01:14.015 --> 00:01:15.875
This clip from the IG series.
00:01:16.215 --> 00:01:25.245
And it is about, again, just starting and doing that thing, if you've got that goal that's something that lights you up or whatever the case may be, just start doing it.
00:01:25.605 --> 00:01:26.864
It don't have to be perfect.
00:01:26.864 --> 00:01:27.825
Get it out there.
00:01:28.135 --> 00:01:30.144
Be bad at it first.
00:01:30.144 --> 00:01:30.415
Nothing.
00:01:30.415 --> 00:01:31.105
No problem with that.
00:01:31.105 --> 00:01:36.534
Alright, so let's go ahead and we'll play this clip real quick and.
00:01:38.670 --> 00:01:40.349
There we go everybody.
00:01:40.349 --> 00:01:42.329
I'm out here at the park today going for a walk.
00:01:42.659 --> 00:01:43.650
Some big announcements.
00:01:43.650 --> 00:01:44.730
Got some big things happening.
00:01:44.730 --> 00:01:45.390
The end of March.
00:01:45.390 --> 00:01:46.200
Not gonna tell you what they are.
00:01:46.200 --> 00:01:48.819
There's they keep your eyes out.
00:01:48.819 --> 00:01:49.870
Some big things happening.
00:01:49.870 --> 00:01:50.890
I'm pretty excited about it.
00:01:51.299 --> 00:01:53.579
But if you've been to my website, breathe bitch.com.
00:01:53.609 --> 00:01:54.060
It's a mess.
00:01:54.060 --> 00:01:55.140
It's an absolute mess.
00:01:55.140 --> 00:01:56.370
Links don't work on it.
00:01:56.655 --> 00:01:58.754
Bad spelling, bad grammar, you name it like that.
00:01:58.905 --> 00:02:01.004
And I've had that site out there for about a year.
00:02:01.094 --> 00:02:02.084
And you might say, Steven, why?
00:02:02.084 --> 00:02:02.984
Why would you do such thing?
00:02:02.984 --> 00:02:04.754
Why would you launch a site when it looks like that, I.
00:02:05.004 --> 00:02:11.395
Because I'm pretty good with SEO search engine optimization, and I know one of the key factors of something ranking is its age.
00:02:11.875 --> 00:02:13.044
So I'm gonna go ahead and throw that out there.
00:02:13.044 --> 00:02:14.365
I knew I was gonna do something with it.
00:02:14.365 --> 00:02:16.085
And by the way we're working on it now.
00:02:16.085 --> 00:02:17.585
Get looking better.
00:02:17.585 --> 00:02:26.555
There's gonna be all kinds of great stuff on there, but we already rank number one in Fort Myers for breath work, sometimes three in Tampa, sometimes we're in the second page, Miami back and forth.
00:02:27.215 --> 00:02:28.354
But where am I going with this?
00:02:28.354 --> 00:02:37.025
Where I'm going with this is if there's something that you're sitting on that you want to do that lights you up, but you wanna make sure it's perfect before you launch it, don't go do that thing.
00:02:37.025 --> 00:02:38.314
It does not have to be perfect.
00:02:38.314 --> 00:02:42.965
Go launch that thing because I can promise you this, if you wait for it to be perfect, it'll never come to Fruitation.
00:02:43.294 --> 00:02:44.495
Go do that thing.
00:02:44.495 --> 00:02:45.995
Make it reality because.
00:02:46.409 --> 00:02:49.469
Even if you think you've got it figured out, that game's gonna change anyway.
00:02:49.469 --> 00:02:50.340
So do it.
00:02:50.639 --> 00:02:51.569
Get started.
00:02:51.689 --> 00:02:53.430
Make it reality and be fluid.
00:02:53.759 --> 00:02:55.500
Be fluid and change as you go.
00:02:55.500 --> 00:02:56.580
And you'll figure it out as you go.
00:02:56.580 --> 00:03:01.710
So we'll go do that thing that lights you up and I'm gonna tell you what, get that passion for life back again.
00:03:01.919 --> 00:03:02.610
It's amazing.
00:03:02.909 --> 00:03:03.629
That's all I got for you.
00:03:05.219 --> 00:03:06.719
Alright, so that's the IG reel.
00:03:07.030 --> 00:03:11.050
Again, check us out on Instagram, breathe bitch, all kinds of different reels in there.
00:03:11.050 --> 00:03:13.509
I don't make videos out of our podcast, out of all of them.
00:03:13.509 --> 00:03:15.189
So there's some on there that you may be missing.
00:03:15.189 --> 00:03:15.250
I.
00:03:15.534 --> 00:03:18.955
And may find one or two that resonate with you might help you out in a situation.
00:03:18.955 --> 00:03:19.764
So keep that in mind.
00:03:19.764 --> 00:03:31.645
So again, my intention for this video is that it's gonna help you just get started to launch that thing and get moving in a forward direction so you could be the higher version of yourself and reach that goal of yours.
00:03:32.719 --> 00:03:39.740
As I said you can screw around and talk about the thing forever, but doing the thing is completely different.
00:03:39.740 --> 00:03:45.020
Now, I know you couldn't see this if you're listening to the podcast unless you're watching a video version of this thing.
00:03:45.439 --> 00:03:51.110
I held my cell phone up to the microphone and that's how I played that video off of Instagram.
00:03:51.199 --> 00:03:53.539
Now, my original plan was to.
00:03:54.199 --> 00:04:00.530
Do a screen recording of it and paste that in into the video and into the podcast.
00:04:00.530 --> 00:04:07.039
That way for the video version of it, you'll see the video that was on Instagram and you guys will be able to hear it and it'll roll into it.
00:04:07.580 --> 00:04:13.069
But I was having problems with it and I don't know,'cause sometimes Instagram will block it.
00:04:13.099 --> 00:04:16.100
If you have background music, which I did have background music on that one.
00:04:16.964 --> 00:04:20.725
They'll block the downloads or they'll, when you download it, they'll be silent.
00:04:21.095 --> 00:04:29.194
I tried to do a screen recording of a couple different ones and for some reason it may have been the internet at that point in time, or may have been my computer, or may have been Instagram, I don't know.
00:04:29.435 --> 00:04:30.665
But it was giving me hangups.
00:04:30.665 --> 00:04:33.935
And you know what I said, I could have tried it again today, but I just said, screw it.
00:04:33.935 --> 00:04:34.834
Let's move forward with it.
00:04:34.834 --> 00:04:36.095
Let's get it done.
00:04:36.435 --> 00:04:42.134
Because I set myself a deadline on getting some of these podcasts done and that was gonna hold me up.
00:04:42.209 --> 00:04:44.370
And I'm not screwing around.
00:04:44.399 --> 00:04:44.970
I'm doing it.
00:04:44.970 --> 00:04:46.470
So that's why I just held the phone up.
00:04:46.470 --> 00:04:48.720
There might've been a little ghetto, but I don't care.
00:04:48.720 --> 00:04:50.129
That's just how we operate sometimes.
00:04:50.220 --> 00:04:52.170
Sometimes we gotta get a little ghetto to get things done.
00:04:52.529 --> 00:04:53.189
Simple as that.
00:04:53.189 --> 00:04:54.329
Nothing wrong with that.
00:04:54.379 --> 00:04:55.310
So simple as that.
00:04:55.500 --> 00:05:08.279
There's a big difference in talking about the thing, walking about the thing, thinking about the thing, laying around about the thing, but doing the thing.
00:05:08.759 --> 00:05:12.149
Is the thing that gets you where you want to be.
00:05:12.209 --> 00:05:13.139
Simple as that.
00:05:13.709 --> 00:05:18.839
And again, I could have been sitting here and researching different ways how to get that video off of Instagram and all this thing.
00:05:19.120 --> 00:05:20.540
But I didn't, I said, let's just do it.
00:05:20.540 --> 00:05:21.620
Lets, let's move forward with it.
00:05:21.620 --> 00:05:25.250
So you need to find your thing that you lights you up.
00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:26.240
That's what you need to do.
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:28.699
You need to find something that lights you up and move forward to it.
00:05:28.850 --> 00:05:29.420
And.
00:05:30.514 --> 00:05:34.475
This is not part of the book that we're working on, but this will definitely be a part of the book.
00:05:34.475 --> 00:05:37.834
This is, again, this is on my IG series, but so we've got another series going on as well too.
00:05:37.834 --> 00:05:43.654
If you're not familiar with it, it's called Breathe Bitch, your Journey to Peace, power, and Purpose.
00:05:44.045 --> 00:05:49.894
And definitely in that purpose section we're gonna, have things in, things that you can look at that possibly might light you up?
00:05:49.894 --> 00:05:52.564
Goals, we definitely want you to find that thing that lights you up.
00:05:52.714 --> 00:05:54.274
Breathe, bitch lights me up.
00:05:54.995 --> 00:05:56.584
I love to be able to help people out.
00:05:57.004 --> 00:06:00.475
This is what that it's really, it's been life changing for me.
00:06:00.834 --> 00:06:07.555
I cannot believe, you know how many times I wake up to messages in the morning from somebody who watched all my videos or something like that just happened this morning.
00:06:07.555 --> 00:06:11.095
I woke up and a woman said, oh my gosh, I'm so glad I found your videos.
00:06:11.375 --> 00:06:13.966
I was in this horrible narcissist relationship da.
00:06:14.293 --> 00:06:17.463
And some of your videos really resonated with me and they really helped me out.
00:06:17.653 --> 00:06:18.584
That lights me up.
00:06:18.584 --> 00:06:19.543
That lights me up.
00:06:19.543 --> 00:06:25.783
I'm like, man, I don't even know who she is, but my video helped her out and I sent her some more advice as well too.
00:06:26.084 --> 00:06:27.163
And I told her to keep watching.
00:06:27.223 --> 00:06:29.084
We're gonna have some things that's definitely gonna be help her out.
00:06:29.084 --> 00:06:30.434
So you gotta find that thing that lights you up.
00:06:30.733 --> 00:06:31.814
What is that thing?
00:06:32.204 --> 00:06:33.434
And you might say I don't have a thing.
00:06:33.963 --> 00:06:34.954
What is your talent?
00:06:35.014 --> 00:06:35.824
What do you do?
00:06:35.884 --> 00:06:38.403
There's so many different things out there.
00:06:38.584 --> 00:06:39.303
Do you read?
00:06:39.303 --> 00:06:40.264
Do you like to read?
00:06:40.264 --> 00:06:41.593
Okay you might as well.
00:06:41.624 --> 00:06:42.043
Okay.
00:06:42.043 --> 00:06:43.963
How do I kinda help Read To the Blind?
00:06:44.173 --> 00:06:52.103
That's something that might light you up, read to the blind read to the elderly who, who don't want to read anymore, can't read whatever the case may be.
00:06:52.163 --> 00:06:53.603
Especially in a memory care area.
00:06:54.064 --> 00:06:55.293
Are you good at math?
00:06:55.473 --> 00:06:57.153
Like, why is that gonna help me Tutor?
00:06:57.153 --> 00:06:57.994
You can tutor.
00:06:58.293 --> 00:07:00.603
There's so many different things you can do to help people out.
00:07:00.603 --> 00:07:03.423
Now the things I'm gonna mention are gonna be helping people out'cause that's what lights me up.
00:07:03.423 --> 00:07:04.533
But it doesn't have to be something like that.
00:07:04.744 --> 00:07:06.093
It's whatever it is that lights you up.
00:07:06.478 --> 00:07:09.509
To me there's no better gift than helping other people out.
00:07:09.509 --> 00:07:10.798
That, to me is true.
00:07:10.798 --> 00:07:19.559
Success is the success is graded by how many people your success is rated, excuse me, by how many people you help out.
00:07:19.619 --> 00:07:21.178
And that's just how I live my life.
00:07:21.178 --> 00:07:22.978
But it, you may live your a little bit differently.
00:07:23.524 --> 00:07:32.314
And again, so you could do tutoring if you're a handyman, you could do some free services for somebody or help somebody out do to reduce paid services.
00:07:32.314 --> 00:07:34.264
'cause I know you gotta pay for material and all that stuff.
00:07:34.564 --> 00:07:40.514
Gardening maybe you like to garden, like how am I gonna garden and donate some of your vegetables to some needy families.
00:07:40.749 --> 00:07:41.559
Simple as that.
00:07:41.658 --> 00:07:44.723
But the trick is to start doing the thing.
00:07:44.723 --> 00:07:45.803
Get that thing done.
00:07:45.803 --> 00:07:48.553
Now you might say I live up north, I live in south Florida.
00:07:48.553 --> 00:07:50.324
There you can only have a garden year round.
00:07:50.564 --> 00:07:51.704
Just depends on what you're planting.
00:07:52.144 --> 00:07:55.634
But maybe up north, got's snowing, I can't I can't garden now.
00:07:55.634 --> 00:07:58.004
Okay, can you start germinating the seeds inside?
00:07:58.093 --> 00:07:59.144
Can you start doing that?
00:07:59.543 --> 00:08:04.043
Lay out your groundwork or go out there and start digging up the soil, turn tilling the soil.
00:08:04.403 --> 00:08:06.834
Or laying out the area or mapping out what you wanna do.
00:08:07.084 --> 00:08:10.353
Do something, work on that thing, write a plan out.
00:08:10.593 --> 00:08:14.973
But I will tell you this, writing a plan out and doing those other things is not actually doing a thing.
00:08:14.973 --> 00:08:15.963
You gotta do the thing.
00:08:16.014 --> 00:08:21.963
Especially if you're doing something like this with a podcasting or working on the website by the way, we did get our website straightened out.
00:08:21.963 --> 00:08:24.153
It's not completely it's an ever evolving process.
00:08:24.153 --> 00:08:25.954
And then we're gonna talk about that here in just a little bit too.
00:08:26.509 --> 00:08:30.678
But, doing the thing and talking about the thing again, are two different things.
00:08:30.759 --> 00:08:35.149
That was, I could sit down and research and I do, I research for all these podcasts that I do.
00:08:35.479 --> 00:08:41.629
'cause, even though I might know a lot of this information, I still want to get some of the best and latest information I possibly can to you guys.
00:08:41.989 --> 00:08:47.418
So I research more before I do one of these podcasts, and I could spend all day doing it.
00:08:47.568 --> 00:08:47.989
And I did.
00:08:47.989 --> 00:08:55.489
And when I first started out I spent so much time doing it and I spent weeks on one particular subject and I'm like.
00:08:55.884 --> 00:08:57.744
How much more can I know about this thing?
00:08:57.744 --> 00:09:00.083
I'm like, just go freaking do the thing.
00:09:00.083 --> 00:09:02.423
And you get this mental block sometimes.
00:09:02.423 --> 00:09:06.923
I don't know if you're like me, but sometimes I get this mental block that I, this holds me back from doing this thing.
00:09:06.923 --> 00:09:08.033
And you just gotta release that.
00:09:08.033 --> 00:09:16.153
Just once you start getting past that block, it opens up a flood gate and you know the difference between working on it and working around it.
00:09:16.364 --> 00:09:17.083
Simple as that.
00:09:17.083 --> 00:09:18.644
So like I said, do that thing.
00:09:18.943 --> 00:09:20.144
Start advertising for that thing.
00:09:20.144 --> 00:09:21.433
Start advertising for it.
00:09:21.433 --> 00:09:22.514
I'm big about that.
00:09:22.519 --> 00:09:25.894
Things that I start doing and I've got, I've got a couple different companies.
00:09:25.894 --> 00:09:27.423
I got a couple different things that I do.
00:09:28.114 --> 00:09:35.464
Start advertising for it, and even if you're not ready to do it, because again, that helps with the SEO, it gets your name out there.
00:09:36.724 --> 00:09:40.923
I would rather turn away a customer and say, Hey, we're not ready for you yet.
00:09:40.984 --> 00:09:42.634
And now you're building up your database.
00:09:42.663 --> 00:09:45.333
Say, I'm not ready for you yet, but we will soon.
00:09:45.333 --> 00:09:50.614
Thank you for reaching out and let me hold you in onto your information and when we're ready, I'm gonna let you know.
00:09:50.884 --> 00:09:51.369
Simple as that.
00:09:51.874 --> 00:10:01.293
I would much rather that than spend all this time, years and effort and this and that and have this polished, perfect thing and release it and then crickets.
00:10:01.474 --> 00:10:02.134
Okay.
00:10:02.134 --> 00:10:04.024
Then find having somebody, some twinkling in.
00:10:04.413 --> 00:10:06.833
That's why I did the website the way I did.
00:10:06.933 --> 00:10:07.984
I did the website.
00:10:08.254 --> 00:10:11.163
Heck, it was out there a year before we really did anything with it.
00:10:11.163 --> 00:10:17.729
I just had other things going on in life and I would work on it a little bit just for SEO purposes and we ranked pretty good.
00:10:17.729 --> 00:10:18.749
We ranked pretty good with it.
00:10:18.958 --> 00:10:20.759
You know it's ever rankings, never.
00:10:21.583 --> 00:10:29.928
Ever continuing battle, but but, I feel comfortable with where we're ranking at, especially at this age in time on it.
00:10:29.969 --> 00:10:35.399
Again, so get your stuff out there, build you a Facebook page for it, whatever the case may be, Instagram page for it.
00:10:35.899 --> 00:10:38.558
All kinds of different things you can do to get out there.
00:10:38.558 --> 00:10:41.448
Maybe you wanna be, maybe you wanna be a yoga instructor.
00:10:41.499 --> 00:10:44.109
Go take the yoga classes and start advertising for the.
00:10:44.528 --> 00:10:45.818
Find out if you wanna work for a studio.
00:10:45.818 --> 00:10:52.839
I know a lot of yoga stocks, the ones that I actually go to yeah, only, yeah, I don't really go to any studios anymore.
00:10:52.839 --> 00:10:53.948
They do it on their own.
00:10:53.948 --> 00:10:55.208
They do it in the parks.
00:10:55.298 --> 00:11:00.339
And I used to go to studios all the time, and I prefer, this is just my preferences.
00:11:00.339 --> 00:11:03.458
I prefer somebody who's not in a studio because the studio's.
00:11:03.948 --> 00:11:05.479
Seem to be so regimented.
00:11:05.538 --> 00:11:10.418
And I hate to say like robotic, it's just okay, downward dog, that or that blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
00:11:10.839 --> 00:11:14.229
Where these individuals that I use, and they were, they all work together.
00:11:14.229 --> 00:11:15.458
So they all teach the same style.
00:11:15.458 --> 00:11:18.068
It's just a, it's more of a spiritual flow.
00:11:18.068 --> 00:11:21.009
They just go with what's going on and what's happening in the moment.
00:11:21.058 --> 00:11:23.639
And it's not just, here's the book, here's what we did.
00:11:23.729 --> 00:11:26.639
This is the five poses I got laid out for us to do today.
00:11:27.028 --> 00:11:27.749
And blah, blah, blah.
00:11:27.749 --> 00:11:37.318
They just wing, wing it off the top of their heads, but they're good like that, but so again, they find places that, that they do this ad and by doing so, they get to reap more profit that way.
00:11:37.318 --> 00:11:38.188
So advertise that thing.
00:11:38.188 --> 00:11:40.918
So again, if you're gonna be a yoga instructor, start advertising for it.
00:11:40.918 --> 00:11:42.538
Whatever the case may be, whoever you're doing.
00:11:43.078 --> 00:11:43.979
Start a order.
00:11:43.979 --> 00:11:46.259
Some shirts, like this shirt I got on now.
00:11:46.259 --> 00:11:47.639
I got a Breathe bitch shirt on right now.
00:11:47.923 --> 00:11:54.453
You can get these things off of Amazon, you can get'em made locally, and you just get one or two of'em made.
00:11:54.573 --> 00:11:56.403
There you go, start advertising your thing.
00:11:56.403 --> 00:11:59.823
Again, like I said, the important thing is to just start doing that thing.
00:11:59.823 --> 00:12:01.413
It does not have to be perfect.
00:12:03.094 --> 00:12:08.374
This is a bold move in life and it doesn't matter what you're doing, but this is a bold move in life.
00:12:08.403 --> 00:12:13.323
You have to be willing to go and be bad at something.
00:12:13.354 --> 00:12:16.144
Go do that thing and be bad at it.
00:12:16.833 --> 00:12:19.474
And don't worry about who's looking,'cause nobody's looking.
00:12:19.894 --> 00:12:21.634
Go be bad at that thing.
00:12:22.293 --> 00:12:27.604
Pick yourself up, dust your off, dust yourself off, and go move forward and then go be good at it.
00:12:27.964 --> 00:12:32.134
And then fall again and dust yourself off and went and move forward and go be great at it.
00:12:32.313 --> 00:12:33.124
Simple as that.
00:12:33.124 --> 00:12:40.563
That's the progression, every successful person I know, you know when I do a lot of, we used to go to a lot of business conferences and stuff like that, and the saying was, I.
00:12:41.509 --> 00:12:43.849
Every successful person has failed.
00:12:43.969 --> 00:12:46.548
They just failed more than the person who gave up.
00:12:46.859 --> 00:12:52.619
They keep failing and just getting theirselves up and dust themselves off, and that's how you get perfect is by doing those things.
00:12:52.619 --> 00:12:57.839
So go out there, be bad at that thing, then go be good at that thing, and then go be great at that thing.
00:12:57.839 --> 00:13:00.028
So don't be scared, don't worry.
00:13:00.028 --> 00:13:01.798
I'm gonna tell you right now, nobody is looking.
00:13:01.798 --> 00:13:04.499
They'll say, and it says dance like nobody's watching.
00:13:04.658 --> 00:13:05.168
Guess what?
00:13:05.229 --> 00:13:06.099
I got news for you.
00:13:06.099 --> 00:13:08.889
Nobody's watching, and I'm gonna talk about this a little bit later, but you know what?
00:13:09.369 --> 00:13:12.038
There is a hundred, and I just said this in one of my classes the other night.
00:13:12.158 --> 00:13:15.729
There is 111 Nobel Peace Prize winners.
00:13:15.729 --> 00:13:16.928
Can you name three of them?
00:13:16.928 --> 00:13:19.658
Can you name three of those Nobel Peace Prizes?
00:13:20.019 --> 00:13:20.708
Prize winners?
00:13:21.629 --> 00:13:22.019
Probably not.
00:13:22.019 --> 00:13:23.278
Maybe one, maybe two.
00:13:23.278 --> 00:13:24.719
But I guarantee you can't name three.
00:13:24.719 --> 00:13:26.999
And this was the biggest day of these individual's lives.
00:13:27.359 --> 00:13:30.339
These were events that obviously.
00:13:30.774 --> 00:13:36.563
Impacted society themselves is why they get these awards, the things that we do, and we don't even know their name.
00:13:36.653 --> 00:13:38.214
We don't even know their name.
00:13:38.214 --> 00:13:46.583
And I'm not trying to say this to make you feel bad, but I'm just trying to tell you that if we don't know what they've done and it was the most important thing in their life, the most life changing thing they probably have ever done.
00:13:47.354 --> 00:13:52.543
The massive recognition of this thing, this life changing thing that's impacted society.
00:13:52.724 --> 00:13:53.653
We don't know their name.
00:13:54.043 --> 00:13:55.004
Nobody's watching you.
00:13:55.004 --> 00:13:57.073
I can promise you that nobody's watching you.
00:13:57.254 --> 00:13:58.543
Go fail.
00:13:58.663 --> 00:13:58.874
Go.
00:13:59.384 --> 00:14:02.203
Go out there and land flat on your face, baby.
00:14:02.683 --> 00:14:04.033
Then pick yourself up.
00:14:04.033 --> 00:14:07.004
Smile, dust yourself off, and go do it again.
00:14:07.004 --> 00:14:11.144
And land on your elbows this time, and then scrape'em up a little bit.
00:14:11.144 --> 00:14:11.653
Get up.
00:14:12.024 --> 00:14:16.283
With a bigger smile on your face, get yourself off and just stumble down to the knees the next time.
00:14:16.283 --> 00:14:17.423
And the next time, guess what?
00:14:17.514 --> 00:14:18.563
You'll catch yourself.
00:14:18.803 --> 00:14:19.494
You catch yourself.
00:14:19.494 --> 00:14:20.543
'cause then you're being great.
00:14:20.604 --> 00:14:22.644
So go do that thing.
00:14:22.644 --> 00:14:23.033
Don't.
00:14:23.364 --> 00:14:24.894
Don't mess around.
00:14:24.894 --> 00:14:25.764
Don't mess around.
00:14:25.793 --> 00:14:27.293
Don't be scared to go do it.
00:14:27.578 --> 00:14:28.389
Simple as that.
00:14:28.688 --> 00:14:30.818
There will be somebody who's gonna make fun of you.
00:14:30.879 --> 00:14:32.139
Screw them.
00:14:32.168 --> 00:14:32.708
You know what?
00:14:32.769 --> 00:14:33.609
What are they doing?
00:14:33.609 --> 00:14:35.828
I can guarantee, I can promise you this.
00:14:35.828 --> 00:14:37.269
I can promise you this.
00:14:37.538 --> 00:14:41.139
If anybody makes fun of you, they are not doing a thing.
00:14:41.379 --> 00:14:42.249
Simple as that.
00:14:42.249 --> 00:14:44.408
They're sitting back watching TV every night.
00:14:44.408 --> 00:14:45.249
They're not doing anything.
00:14:45.278 --> 00:14:54.639
'cause anybody who's done anything of any kind of success in their life will look at you and see where you're at in your journey and recognize themselves in that journey.
00:14:54.984 --> 00:14:56.994
And say, oh, yep, I've been there.
00:14:57.183 --> 00:14:58.833
And they may even throw you some encouraging words.
00:14:58.833 --> 00:15:00.183
So don't yeah.
00:15:00.274 --> 00:15:01.474
Would you fail?
00:15:01.764 --> 00:15:09.234
The great people will recognize that, hey, they're coming up, they're coming up, they're doing exactly what I did when I started out.
00:15:09.234 --> 00:15:12.823
So again, don't ever be embarrassed about what you do.
00:15:12.823 --> 00:15:15.974
That is just some sort of mental block that we have in our own head.
00:15:15.974 --> 00:15:16.813
Simple as that.
00:15:17.323 --> 00:15:22.923
So hear about some tips on how to go and do that thing, how to get started on that thing.
00:15:23.308 --> 00:15:26.489
Here's a, here's one I like this, that says, lower the bar start ugly.
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:28.288
Lower the bar, start ugly Again.
00:15:28.619 --> 00:15:32.009
Like I said, it does not have to be perfect in any way.
00:15:32.068 --> 00:15:34.869
Be rough, messy, that's what the beginning's all about.
00:15:34.989 --> 00:15:36.548
That's what the beginning's all about.
00:15:36.938 --> 00:15:39.729
Any carving, think about any statue that was made.
00:15:39.729 --> 00:15:41.678
It's gotta start, starts out ugly.
00:15:41.894 --> 00:15:49.344
You know when somebody started, Michelangelo started some beautiful statue they were working on, first couple people walked by okay, yep.
00:15:49.403 --> 00:15:51.053
Looks like a big old rock to me.
00:15:51.474 --> 00:15:55.854
But they weren't there time after time, and maybe they did come back and say, oh wow, what are this beautiful.
00:15:56.239 --> 00:15:57.528
Sculpture come from.
00:15:57.578 --> 00:15:58.418
It just takes time.
00:15:58.418 --> 00:15:59.168
Just takes time.
00:15:59.229 --> 00:16:03.668
And, one of the problems too is you gotta let go of that instant gratification mindset.
00:16:04.089 --> 00:16:07.808
It takes time to be great at something, but here's the thing.
00:16:08.168 --> 00:16:16.548
And if you're doing something that, if time, which everything takes time at, but if you're doing something that seems a little bit harder than what you thought it would be.
00:16:17.239 --> 00:16:20.298
I want you to embrace that'cause I certainly do.
00:16:20.298 --> 00:16:25.249
Now this is something that just popped in my head, but I'm so glad it did because this is such an important message right here.
00:16:25.548 --> 00:16:26.629
If you're doing something.
00:16:28.474 --> 00:16:29.403
I don't care what it is.
00:16:29.644 --> 00:16:37.384
I don't care if you're starting a building company, you're starting something and you're like, oh, this takes far more permits than I thought it was ever gonna take.
00:16:37.384 --> 00:16:40.504
Or this takes far more time to do this than I ever thought it was.
00:16:40.864 --> 00:16:47.744
Doing a Bo a podcast, it took a lot more stuff that I thought than it it was gonna take to do it than I thought.
00:16:48.254 --> 00:16:52.964
But when you run into those walls, those barriers, I want you to embrace that.
00:16:52.964 --> 00:16:55.423
Be like, okay, this is good.
00:16:55.514 --> 00:16:57.163
This is a good thing.
00:16:57.254 --> 00:16:58.964
And you might say why is this a good thing?
00:16:59.354 --> 00:17:02.203
Because this is a barrier that I.
00:17:02.399 --> 00:17:04.798
10% of the people are not gonna cross.
00:17:04.798 --> 00:17:06.058
They're gonna give up right there.
00:17:06.118 --> 00:17:08.989
And then when you hit that next barrier, say, okay good.
00:17:09.019 --> 00:17:11.088
The bigger the barrier, the better it is.
00:17:11.088 --> 00:17:16.878
And I want you to know that, and I want you to push through that barrier because that barrier is what holds people back.
00:17:17.028 --> 00:17:18.439
And when it holds people back.
00:17:18.763 --> 00:17:34.394
That's great, because then that allows you to even enter closer to that greatness on the other side because those barriers, again, cut the week away and you're strong and you're gonna push through it, and you're gonna be great because you just keep getting up, dusting yourself off and moving forward.
00:17:34.394 --> 00:17:35.173
Simple as that.
00:17:35.223 --> 00:17:39.544
So that's really the gist of it that you just, you know, you don't let.
00:17:41.169 --> 00:17:46.328
Society laugh at you because if they're laughing, those aren't the people that you're looking up to.
00:17:46.328 --> 00:17:53.618
Because those people will acknowledge where you're at and recognize themselves in that barriers, embrace them.
00:17:53.709 --> 00:17:54.969
Those are good things.
00:17:54.969 --> 00:17:58.328
They're great things because that holds the rest of the people back.
00:17:58.328 --> 00:17:59.439
That's what you want.
00:17:59.808 --> 00:18:01.009
'cause some things are easy.
00:18:01.108 --> 00:18:06.909
Have very easy low barrier entries, and those are tough to get into because the masses get into'em.
00:18:06.909 --> 00:18:11.558
But if you take it deeper and deeper, get across those barriers, that's the beautiful part about it.
00:18:11.648 --> 00:18:13.868
And so that separates you from the rest.
00:18:13.868 --> 00:18:14.618
So simple as that.
00:18:14.618 --> 00:18:18.679
So this is where we're gonna go and start widening it down a little bit.
00:18:18.679 --> 00:18:20.778
I just hope that motivates you to go do that thing.
00:18:21.169 --> 00:18:26.298
Again, whatever that may thing may be, maybe you wanna go be a yoga instructor and help people out find mindfulness.
00:18:26.298 --> 00:18:34.558
Maybe you wanna be a breath work instructor which you can go to our website and we will eventually have something on there to teach people to be instructors on that as well too.
00:18:35.169 --> 00:18:38.538
Or we got a special thing at the end of this book that we're working on.
00:18:38.538 --> 00:18:45.078
I think I did mention that at the beginning of this, the book that we're working on is Breathe Bitch, your Journey to Peace, power, and Purpose.
00:18:45.078 --> 00:18:49.898
And we're gonna have something that people can actually workshops that they can present of the book.
00:18:50.019 --> 00:18:51.479
And that'll be on our website.
00:18:51.479 --> 00:18:52.648
And that's the first time I mentioned that.
00:18:52.648 --> 00:18:53.189
So there you go.
00:18:53.189 --> 00:18:54.328
A little sneak peek of that.
00:18:54.729 --> 00:18:57.249
And that book should be done by the end of the year, hopefully.
00:18:57.663 --> 00:19:03.604
So whether it be something like that or whatever the case may be, tutoring, whatever the case may be, go do that thing.
00:19:03.653 --> 00:19:05.364
Just start doing it now.
00:19:05.394 --> 00:19:06.114
Simple as that.
00:19:06.114 --> 00:19:06.683
Don't wait.
00:19:07.013 --> 00:19:07.733
Just go do that thing.
00:19:07.784 --> 00:19:14.324
Alright, so this is where we're typically gonna take questions from viewers, and again, we're just starting out so we don't have any questions in yet.
00:19:14.324 --> 00:19:20.624
So what you would do if you wanna submit a question, if you need some mindful advice on something, go at our website, breathe bitch.com.
00:19:21.193 --> 00:19:23.294
Scroll down to the podcast section right there.
00:19:23.294 --> 00:19:26.084
Hit the button and that will take you to the podcast page.
00:19:26.114 --> 00:19:29.983
On the podcast page, you're gonna see a spot where you can fill out information.
00:19:30.193 --> 00:19:31.784
You're gonna put your first name, last name.
00:19:32.098 --> 00:19:35.189
State that you're in and you're gonna put in a little message.
00:19:35.189 --> 00:19:46.868
We will not use your name, your last name on the on the air here, but we'll use your first name and what state you're from and we will try to address your situation, trying to look at it through a mindful lens.
00:19:47.118 --> 00:19:54.558
We have the arms WR relationships, and sometimes as you just need that somebody who's not all caught up in it and who can step back and take a look and say, hey.
00:19:55.189 --> 00:19:56.388
This is the perspective.
00:19:56.419 --> 00:19:57.949
Maybe you're right, maybe you're wrong.
00:19:57.949 --> 00:19:59.689
Maybe this is how you need to look at things.
00:19:59.689 --> 00:20:03.419
We'll do our best we can to give you our opinion on the situation.
00:20:03.509 --> 00:20:06.028
And again, this is just strictly our opinion on it.
00:20:06.028 --> 00:20:09.548
It's not any type of professional advice, but this is just some mindful advice.
00:20:09.548 --> 00:20:10.659
I've helped plenty of people out.
00:20:10.659 --> 00:20:14.269
