george I mean I can sit here and look at him and go you little devil get away from me okay so I know it's simple and it's also really hard to shut him up sometimes but sometimes just recognizing that it's him there and you khun externalize it a little bit that it helps to quiet him down and the opinions of others is sometimes just george it's really not the opinions of others but george is telling you that it iss okay let go of the shame of past failures okay we all have them you guys have all failed at something it's how we learn and in fact the only way to get better the knife is to fail so let go of the shame that you associate with out again it's george shaming you think about what you learned from that and what a positive experience it is and how it helped you rather than hurt you there's always a silver lining to every bad experience as horrible as it may be I mean even in the midst of tragedy in painting minuscule but there's always something and when you can grab onto that positive thing even how infant test only small it is that only does you good I was a very my mother is extremely negative person and s so I kind of grew up in a very negative environment and I learned to be a negative I mean you obviously learnt from your parents it took me probably five years to learn how to undo that because I realized that nobody likes a negative person I mean really anybody who's negative in your life they're not really fun to be around are they know it's like everybody who complains about things all the time and of course we all complain we have teo but when you're around somebody who's positive it just lifts you out doesn't it so I had this epiphany one a few years back and I'm like I want to be a positive person so grab onto each nugget of bad experience no matter how bad it is and run with it because it does you more good than anyone else so in other words be good to yourself let go of being indecisive about what you want now police over there going boom girl tio que um we're all indecisive about things and it's okay to take time to make a decision I mean look at my sisters she totally admitted that she was she she takes her time with everything but know that about yourself and be okay with it okay but don't just sit there in limbo expecting life to come to you because it's not going to you have to make it happen okay so let go of being indecisive about what you really want because you're the one who controls that destiny okay let go procrastinating on the goals that matter to you sometimes you just gotta get in the car and go to the gym as much as you don't want to just get in the car and go to the gym and I mean that figuratively I don't mean that literally I mean if you have a goal like learning painter it's simple like that just sit down for goodness they can do it carve out some time and do it your piece okay nobody likes cream vegetables why I do I love peace but seriously it some people don't like that so I you know what I'm saying I'm saying um let go of choosing to do nothing again waiting for the world to happen to you is never going to get you anywhere the only way to move forward is to get on your own ship pull out your oars or your motor your sale whatever you've got and go okay you're the one who controls that let go of your need to be right you okay honey your need to be right all the time you don't need to be right as a matter of fact sometimes it's just magnificent to be wrong what I said my husband I love that one my husband loves it too right he's always right uh just like all of it because when you let go of the need to be right and khun say to yourself I was wrong you're going to grow so muchmore than I you just need to be right oh my gosh they're passing the tissue box around I love it just for you patty are you okay okay all right other top things to let go of running from problems that should be fixed you know them you know what they are ok and we all have them I've got

decisions we've all done it right don't make excuses it's only hurting you make decisions and move forward overlooking the positive in your life we love to let george rule the roost I don't know why it's a survival thing but really stop overlooking the positive in your life there are so many magnificent things about living and being in business and it's hard but it's also amazing and when you focus on the positive it puts you in the frame of mind and the frame of body to move forward and make decisions that are in your best interest when you hamper on yourself and be negative about things
