BATHROOM UPDATE

My hair is sure growing back. Good morning, everybody. Okay, Simon Cullen. It's time for breakfast. Let's go. I sound like my mom, dude. My mom used to do this when I was a kid. Thomas, Carrie, John and then 11 other siblings names up up the same. What you digging for there? Digging for gold? Mom blames me for you guys picking boogers. Okay, get up here and sit down. Come on. Look Ezra's gonna watch you guys eat. Hi Ezra. Why can't they all be as simple as you buddy? I guess Simon doesn't want any cereal. Actually doesn't have lips. That's what she just told me. She said I don't have lips. Well Simon and Cullen are at grandma's school. I don't know why they've had such a hard time going there lately. It's it's actually really weird because... Cullen was fine this morning. You know what? I think I know their tactics and their tactics are if I whine enough I bet I could get a gift or a toy or a present out of dad and they're usually right. I cave. Well, we're gonna go get jacked real quick daily routine go to the gym. All right, I got the hiccups. Hopefully they are not too annoying. But anyway, I'm listening again to to the compound effect. The compound effect book the audio. I don't care what you do in your life. Everyone needs to listen to this. This is probably the 10th time I've listened to it. But I swear every time I get something different out of it. I'm sure you guys have seen that too. You know, if you've read the same book a few times, but You guys know something I listened to today I wrote down like a note that I took was He quoted Tony Robbins and he said Tony Robbins talks about this. It's he calls it No man's land and and what that is is it's a place where you're not happy with But you're not unhappy enough to do something about it. So, you know, that could be a job or that could be a I don't know. Maybe it's like a lifestyle you're living. Maybe you're not Like you don't have the body type you want or you feel like oh, man I just keep gaining weight whatever it is But but no man's land is basically where you are You're not happy with where you're at, but you're not willing to do anything about it yet Cuz you're not unhappy enough. And yes, like Thomas said he said, oh look, they're washing their Raiden It's a very dangerous place to be it's kind of like a place of complacency is what I always call it What I love about the compound effect is really realizing those little tiny decisions you make every day They are leading you down a path Those little decisions even if you're thinking they're not going to lead you somewhere like you're thinking. I'm just gonna stay here You're never staying here. You're either going towards your goals or away from them You're living right now in a place of complacency or a no man's land and you you're not happy there You are just gonna become more and more and more unhappy And I think what tends to happen is we get to a place where we're so unhappy It's like you have to hit rock bottom and be miserable before we make those decisions When if you made the decision right now, it'd be that much easier for your life to completely change But I love being aware through this book. He's really made it Easy for you to be aware of what of when you are starting to go down that direction So I loved I loved that from this morning so from what you're saying that the no man's land is such a dangerous place because You it's like a it's kind of like a fork in the road where it's like you have two options You're either gonna go down or you're gonna go up You're gonna go towards your goal or you're gonna go away from your goal There is no staying in no man's land because it's just like an area where it's like, okay It's only a matter of time before you continue to make those bad decisions that have led to you to where you're at they're gonna continue to lead you down farther away from your goal or You can make that change and take away those small decisions. And when I say small decisions imagine like The simple thing of stopping at the gas station every day before work and grabbing an energy drink for three dollars and fifty cents Every single day if you do that add that up that turns into a substantial amount of money Even though on Monday that is a three dollar and twenty five cent decision at the end of the month. That's a $325 Decision like I don't know if my math's anywhere near right? No, it's pretty close. Yeah What I'm saying is that small decision turns into a big decision. What does that turn into over a year? about a $3,000 decision to a $5,000 decision a year then over ten years It's a $25,000 decision just for a simple energy a little tiny decision you make So it's just something to think about I you definitely are in a area where you have to make a choice Yeah to go towards your goal or away from your goal. I like that to finish off this thought This is the quote that I wrote down so no man's land is a place where you're not Happy, but not unhappy enough to do something about it. This is a place where People numb themselves to their dreams where they dismiss hope and accept what's in front of them instead of driving towards What they really want and then my last thought Was You make your choices and then your choices make you Well, hopefully the boys had fun at grandma's we just killed it at the gym and there goes the light Daddy's here They're gonna run Okay. Okay. Okay. My eyes are closed Only a thing ever. Okay, let's go find them Let me see where your brother is no So they wrote their name on all their papers, oh he wrote his down there this time good himself see What are you guys playing with? Who do you got there? Cat woman Okay, oh My Okay, who do you got Simon Bane Holy cow That looks like so much fun you guys you're having so much fun.

That's like the first Minute I've had to just like sit for a second. I'll show you guys what I did I love this about the boys bed. There is the dresser built-in I still need to go through all of this stuff and move it but Now they used to have like 80 different just random pairs of pajamas They have five pair.

So the next Those three drawers are full of their pants Then we got their shoes. We have more shoes needed to go through and I haven't gone through those yet But their shirts they wear Those are all like church shirts and then a lot of these are fall things They can't really be wearing right now, but I organized all their books.
