I saw I have some stuff, I have a lot of things, I have a bunch of stuff to tell you. And I also wanted to give you a quick update, just in case you have been following along the past few episodes, where I talked about that tick tock that I saw and saw the Northern Lights and then decided the next day to book a trip to Iceland. So if you are new here, welcome. Welcome, welcome. And if you want to go back and listen to those episodes, where it kind of like more dives into that whole story, because I think on the surface, that might sound all a little crazy. But you know what, maybe not, like, maybe that sounds like really living, it feels like really living to me. And I realized, I realized more and more. And I talked about this a little bit last night that I want to make decisions way quicker, and do just leap into the things that I want to do. And I’ve had a lot of things, you know, just like you have like a lot of things that I want to do and ideas. And I think like that, like, I’ll get to that, I’ll do that. Yeah, I’m gonna do that at some point. I’ll figure that out when the time is right. And I do that a lot. And sometimes it’s valid, right? Sometimes it’s valid. We always think it’s valid, I guess. And sometimes I have real reasons. But a lot of the time, it’s just me delaying or not being ready, I’ll give you an example is that I’ve wanted to do a live NLP training. But I want it. I remember when I very first started my whole NLP trainers training journey, one of the things I asked to my trainer was, like, could I do this training like a retreat? Like, could I have people come to like a retreat and do this whole thing? And she was like, Yeah, I don’t know. Why not. You know, some people do it. Like in a hotel in a conference room. Like, that’s how I was trained. But I don’t see why you couldn’t do it that way. And then I was thinking that’s what I wanted to do, but never actually did it. So last week, I talked about how I started making decisions much, much quicker. And part of that for me was going you know what, I’m going to do a live NLP, I’m going to make the decision to do the live NLP training before fear has a chance to move up front into the front seat with me, you know, when we have an idea of something we want, kind of like lingering in the background is this like, I’m not sure. And then the longer we pause, the quicker that fear body comes and moves right up next to us. Or now it’s like cuddling up next to us. And so many times I think we just delay you. We might not say no, we may not say like, I’m never gonna do that. We don’t do that. We just delay. And I don’t, I no longer feel like there’s a big difference between delaying and saying no, other than just delaying makes us feel better. Delaying makes us feel like well, it still is possible. I saw a quote the other day and I’ve seen this quote a million times. I know you’ve seen it too. And it says something like the biggest mistake people make is thinking that they have time. And I think that that’s sort of like what happened to me was that all of the sudden, I was like, I don’t know that I have time. Like I’m gonna.
