Your Kids Are Watching: What Will You Teach Them Through Your Pain? : 1PM #079

[00:00:01] What's up, y'all? Welcome back to the one percent man podcast. Today I want to talk to you about what you're going to tell your kids when hard time hits. Because today I am fasting. I am hungry, I am tired. My body needs more water and hydration because since I'm fasting, it's using all that water and anything that I was eating for a while to really repair itself. [00:00:22] And I'm on the floor in my bedroom because I just was here laying down and meditating and sleeping, and I just thought, like, man, today is a hard day. [00:00:35] Like, hard. Even last night, I had cold sweats from ptsd. [00:00:40] I'm just feeling down, I'm feeling out. I'm feeling like the whole world is attacking me, right? I have to pay 4000 for a. [00:00:50] For a situation in court. I have. [00:00:53] I have another situation that's going on in the business trying to finalize partnership. Partnership. [00:01:02] So today is a hard day, right? I'm getting attacked on multiple fronts and something. I had therapy today as well. My therapist was like, hey, you know when you made that coat of arms, that declaration of what you want your life to look like and be like, she's like, that's when everything went to. That's when everything went to. When you declared to the ether, the universe, God, whatever you want to call it. But I say to the ether, to the ether, when you declared, hey, this is the type of man I want to be. This is what I want to produce into this world. This is what I want to become. [00:01:35] Wow. She said, wow. Like, if you don't know. But, you know, we've had a lot of great sessions, but ever since then, like, you have been on a roll and said, in a good way, on a roll. But what happened to me ever since declaring that coat of arms and who I want to be and what I want for my family, it's like life has said, you really want this? Okay, step up and show me that you want this. And I told her, even through this whole thing, I love it. I love the process. I love the journey of who I'm becoming. I love the mistakes. I love the successes. I love the failures as well, because each step gets me closer. Every day that I'm alive gets me closer to the step of who I really want to become. And even in the process of becoming that person, I am still that person already, right? [00:02:23] I am just bringing him to reality. And I say all this to say is that your kids are watching you. To all the men that have kids and even Your friends and your family, they are watching what you're doing. They're watching how you handle it. They are watching how you deal with everything, right? And sometimes it should take for you to explain to them, hey, this is what's going on, right? And sometimes at the end of the day they're going to learn better by just watching what you're doing. [00:02:50] So I just want to remind you that no matter what you do know that people are watching you, the people that actually matter. I don't care about the social media and Instagram and TikTok and all those other people, but I'm saying people in your life that matter to you, your tribe, your internal core, the people that really care about you, they're watching how you're going to handle situations, right? And either you're going to be two things. Either you're going to be example of what to do or the example not to do. I'm not always the example of what to do. Right. This morning I cursed at my family because I was frustrated and I will apologize about it, but. [00:03:27] And even with everything I have going on, you know, I still, you know, got out of the man that I wanted to be and went back into a man of fear and trauma, whatever you want to call it, right? But just week, week, week, week, I was being a bitch. Let's just be what it is, right? So I want to say to you is that know who you want to become. Know that the people are watching you and be better, right? Look, not every day is going to be perfect. Not every day is going to be sunshines and rainbows. Not every day you're going to love what. What's being told. Not every day you're going to be like, yeah, I feel great, but push through it and get to the other side. Every day you're alive, it's. It's another day to be a. [00:04:13] To be a creator, not a consumer. [00:04:17] All right, so that's my message for today. Hope you have a great day. [00:04:21] Love you, brother. Later.
