Going old school on you today. Some really good stuff over the years that I've worked and when I get bored I sit down and pull things together I don't really work and I kind of write them down and

So today, some of that stuff, you don't have to wait any longer to seize control of your life. I gave you a few ways to do this. It is the Daily Boost from MotivationToMove.com, the positive boost you need every single day. I just want you to grow your life, grow your business.

My name is Scott Smith. Hey, Scott Smith on Instagram. My birthday on November 21st. You are required by law to send me a birthday note. And also send me an email if you'd like to.

If you'd like to gush in great detail, you can send me an email. Scott at MotivationToMove.com. But I expect you, if you have never paid the bill, you can't just listen to the podcast. Okay, well, you can just listen.

That's cool. You can listen to podcasts, and I will sort of consider that paying the bill, only if you use what you learn. If you don't use what you learn, I'm taking it back from you. You don't get to listen if you don't use what you learn, okay?

That's it. But if you want to be my best friend in the world on the 21st of November, you'll say, happy birthday, old man. But don't say, old man, it's going to make me depressed if you do. Just don't do that.

I don't need to be depressed. Faceyourpassion.com is a... An amazing coaching group. If you're trying to figure stuff out, you can't quite get the clarity you need.

You're just kind of stuck a little bit. I mean, let's just be real stuck. Your life is going to be good. You're doing great. You've got all kinds of stuff going on, but you need a little bit of help just kind of, man, I wish I could just have somebody who's done this about 10 million times tell me how to do it.

Or maybe you figured it out, but you don't know the next step. Welcome to our group. That's why it's called Face Your Passion. Passion is just being able to live a life doing the things you enjoy doing.

Not irresponsible, but just doing the stuff you want to do. And most people need to make a living. And right now we're talking a lot about business, a lot about sales and marketing, a lot about AI. And we kind of blend it all together.

And those are the most popular calls we have because essentially it comes down to this. We can't create money. We better have money. Right? Yeah. It's just bottom line.

You can't just meander around and do the things you want to do and live the life your way unless you have some cash to do it. So it's always going to be. We have to fund what our passions are. Anyway, go to faceyourpassion.com and join us on the call.

You'll enjoy it. Money-back guarantee always. I haven't given one in years, not because I didn't give one. It's because nobody asked for one. So you should join us.

So a couple of things today. Because when you feel more in control of your life, you're more comfortable in your life. You're happier. So a lot of years ago, I created something called Do What Makes Your Heart Sing.

And it was kind of all about being happy. Its core teaching, though, was really some of the things that became my best practice. Very long time ago in that. I still believe in that.

I still, I don't run around saying, do what makes your heart sing. Although I still, I really think you should. I really do. I don't see any reason to do things like, oh, I hate this.

I'm going to do this for eight hours a day. I hate it. No, I don't see any reason for that. Not to say your work needs to be just fun and like your personal life.

But you should at least enjoy it. It should at least not aggravate you. Scott, that's work. I don't believe it, man. There's so many jobs you can do where you can not be aggravated.

This job that I have here, I'm not aggravated. It's a hard job. Doing what I do with the podcast, taking the beating I take on the internet sometimes, doing coaching, being responsible for people's success in so many ways. That's a hard job, man.

It's okay. I love doing it. That's the vibe you want to be in. You do know if you're doing your passion, you're going to have to endure. It's going to be tough.

Das ist es, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, es ist, aber ich liebe es. Ich hoffe, Sie get that. So, number one rule today, stop fixing to get ready. That's a Southern, that's a Southern phrase that I picked up a bunch of years ago when I was doing a radio show in Orlando.

Mix 105.1, lady called me on the phone one night. I was doing the 70s Saturday Night Show and she called up and I said, what you doing? She goes, fixing to get ready. I said, what's that?

She goes, well, we're going to go out tonight. So right now I'm getting ready to get ready. Huh? Real conversation, man. But over time, I've learned something.

I've learned half this audience is right now fixing to get ready. You're thinking about doing something, but you got to think more about it. And you're going to do something first, thinking you're getting ready to get ready and you're not getting ready.

Stop fixing to get ready. Just go do it. Do the thing. It's amazing what happens when you do the thing. I had this conversation yesterday in my Face Your Passion call.

It's like, you know what? You don't even have to finish this call today. You don't have to plan it. You don't have to do it. Just go do it. Oh, I hadn't thought about that.

Seriously. No, just go do it. And you'll be amazing what happens if you just do it. Number two, ask for help. We all need help. Millions of people are waiting for you to ask them.

We're all willing to help. We are. When you ask for help from somebody, a little bit of guidance along the way, you tend to get what you want. Number three, slow down when it gets bumpy.

Going after big goals is going to lead you down some rough roads. It's just how it's going to happen. That's when you slow down, you stay focused, you keep moving. You ever go down a

In Florida, we have a lot of sand roads here, the coquina stones and kind of the sand roads. And when the winds blow, the winds blow the sand, right? And the road gets that washboard kind of effect. I know we get that in other areas of the country too, but we just haven't.

But we're specialists at it down here. Ours are just really worse than anywhere in the world. Das Rewe Extra. Extra günstig, extra sparen. Diese Woche extra günstig.

Milka-Schokolade. Verschiedene Sorten. Je 90 Gramm Tafel nur 99 Cent. Und mit Rewe Bonusser musst du zusätzlich 10 Cent Bonusgut haben. Außerdem diese Woche extra günstig.

Salakes Schafskäse Natur. Je 180 Gramm Packung nur 1,99 Euro. Rewe. Dein Markt. But if you've ever gone down a road like that, you know that it will rattle your teeth out if you don't slow down.

So you're going to slow down until you don't rattle your teeth out. Same thing with airplanes. You slow things down. Same thing with a motorcycle. I drive a bike all the time.

I've learned something. Slow down and give some space. Keeps you alive. Life is the same thing. So if you're pushing through stuff and you're fighting, fighting, fighting, if you are putting out all the fires that you started, you're the fireman and the arsonist all in the same breath,

You've got to slow down. When you feel bumps in the road, slow down to the point that they smooth out a little bit and then reevaluate where you are. Different road, different tires, different suspension. What's it going to be?

Different plan? Different spouse? Different boss? Slow down when it gets bumpy. Fly it into the barn. A little uncomfortable saying this because we have it.

Very tragic accident from that Learjet down in West Palm Beach, but I'm going to do it anyway. We're growing up right now. Good pilots know something. In fact, it's actually probably a good time.

A lot of conversation about this. Good pilots are continuing to fly the airplane until they are safely tied down on the ground. That's what they do. They fly it into the ground.

And hopefully, every landing is a crash landing, honestly. It is. And you've just got it under control. Again, stay on the topic here. That young lady died.

She's 20 years old. And she didn't fly it into the ground. But boy, she kept being a pilot right to the very end, like eight seconds, five seconds from the end. Did her job.

That's what you need to do. You keep going until you get what you want. And if you don't, you don't. But you just keep going. You don't stop. You don't give up.

You go, okay, I'm out of here. No, you just keep going until you figure it out. Or you don't. People stop too soon. They stop because it gets hard. Fly it.

Number five, be smart. Set goals. Don't argue with me. It's simple. Trust and use your wisdom. Set a goal and go do it. If you don't set goals, you're missing one of the most powerful tools in your life.

I'm not even going to talk about this. If you don't set goals, you're dumb. I'm just going to say it. Okay. Stupid. Okay. Lazy. Okay. Could be smarter.

How's that? Set goals. And by the way, if you've ever seen SMART goals, you can figure out the acronym for yourself. It's been debunked so many times.

I've said for many years, the whole SMART goal acronym that was made up so many years ago has just been debunked. And we've realized it doesn't work. And I've said it to you again and again and again. Half the things they built into smart goals are derailing with you.

So if you want to choose goals, don't choose smart goals. I'm not going to teach you goals today, but I gave you some guidance. Number six, don't give monkeys piggyback rides. Uh-huh.

Don't do it. What I mean by that is lots of people will put their monkey on your back if you let them. Deal with your challenges. Let them do the same.

And the metaphor that should stick in your brain today is this. If somebody wants to put their monkey on your back, remember what monkeys do if you don't put a diaper on them, okay? And when these people are putting their monkey on your back, they're not putting a diaper on that monkey. And I'll leave that in your brain.

Don't let people put their monkey on your back. You've got enough to deal with. Am I preaching now? Is that part of your problem? Because you keep saying yes too much?

You don't say no enough? Practice makes perfect. I'd start right now. Finally, I want you to practice daily P-Y-O-T-B. This term came from a story I told many, many years ago from a client of mine who was a martial arts instructor.

And at the end, he would have his students kind of reach around like you're stretching your tricep, reach around. He said, pat yourself on the back and say, I done good. That was how he, in the South, Memphis, how he congratulated his class, kind of unwound them and got them transitioned back to the real world after doing karate for an hour. And I think you need to do the same thing.

You need to pat yourself on the back from time to time and say, I done good, man. And sometimes what you should do is you just, you know, if you're walking in a hall or something, got a meeting you're going to, slip off. You know, find a closet someplace and step in there and just say, man, P-Y-O-T-B. Pat yourself on the back and say, I've done good.

If you really want to get a kick out of yourself, just pat yourself on the butt. That'll work even better. I'm serious. Slap it hard, baby. Now, P-Y-O-T-B came from my members.

I would say pat yourself on the butt. And they literally start abbreviating it P-Y-O-T-B. And it's just been in my language ever since then. But you should do it.

Ich erzähle dir eine lustige Geschichte. Ich habe das in einem Seminar gemacht. Ich habe 1,000 Menschen in der Audience gemacht, und ich habe sie einfach nur die P-Y-O-T-B-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A-G-A- I have them do it themselves and I have them pat themselves the butt for the advanced version and the super duper really, really cool people.

I have them pat the person's butt next to them. It gets a laugh. What was really funny is you'd be very surprised how many people actually do it and it just breaks the tension. It's kind of cool.

So there you go, a couple of ideas for you. Stop fixing the gruddy. Start asking to help. Slow down when it gets bumpy. Fly it into the barn. Be smart.

Set some goals. Don't be silly. Don't put somebody else's monkey on your back. And some P-Y-O-T-B. Pat yourself on the butt and say, I done good. It'll make you feel better, and you get some stuff done.

A couple of rules for life you might want to tuck away and use today. I'll see you at FaceYourFashion.com, and I'll see you here tomorrow on the Daily Boost.
