What I was saying was that, uh I got a guilty confession, and I was telling y'all. My guilty confession, Uh yeah, kid said she couldn't hear shit I was going. But now it's too Kid. I was talking about like all of the stuff that's going on, like here, listen to me, kidd, all the shit that's going on in the city of dating right now, right all this all the drama, all this messiness, you know what I'm saying. And y'all respective cities all around the country, everybody, you know that the hood that we're gonna be messy where we at? Man? You know what I'm saying.

Why everybody got problems with each other? Threatening each other's lines and all that kind of stuff. My guilty confection is the is I'm addicted to the next Door App. I don't know if y'all got the next door app where y'all at? You hear me? But the next door app is like social media for but it's like neighborhood. You understand what I'm talking about, Like neighborhood, not like nipsey them, but like neighborhood like where I live, neighborhood you feel me neighborhood cup. So I'm watching I'm on the next door app right and somebody on the next door app and I seen the post. And when I seen the post, I said, ooh this shit Finnish, get real. You feel me so like I'm like, I'm like a like if I if I'm if I'm if i'm if I'm being aware of my time yesterday and I'm getting my awareness window as to how I've been spending my time. Salute to everybody that's that's monitoring your that's taking my challenge and monitoring your seven days of how you actually spending my time, Double your time.

If you haven't gone over there and done that, hope you fall in the shower. I don't want you to end up like Christopher Reese, but I do want you to get a bruise on your left side. Y'all are a deep bruise on your left side so that you got to sleep on the right. But listen to me. So this next door app. I don't know if y'all got the next door app, but it's like social media for neighborhoods. And this dude went in there yesterday and he said he do First of all, do y'all know what the neighborhood appy? I mean the next door app? Do y'all have the next door app? You probably should look at it if you do have it. So this dude went in there and he said in the next door app, he said dogs. He posted and he lived around the corner from me, and he said dogs in stores slash gas stations. Please stop taking your dogs in the grocery stores and gas stations if they are not service animals. This is unsanitary and in many cases illegal. I saw a woman at speedway and wherever I'm located. I almost have the police called on her because she brought her dog into the store. When the cashier told her she needed to leave to get the dog out, the woman start threatening her, threatening her and asked her what she was gonna do about it. This is immature and stupid. Leave your pants at home and do not take them where they don't belong. I read that and I said, ooh, this motherfucker tripping. You feel me? I said, ooh, he tripping. Big Dad said, I got it. Found Gloe said we got it. Hey, you gotta get on there. And why you gotta get on there? I said, ooh, they getting ready to go. It's getting ready to go down. Kid said in restaurants. Kid, they didn't cover the whole gimmick. And I said, ooh, you tell you. You're telling these white folks about they dogs. And he white too. And white on white crime is my favorite type of crime. You understand what I'm saying. I love white on white crime. I love brown on brown crime, I love yellow on yellow crime. You feel me right on white crime? A good quality white on white crime. My compliment is to the chef, you feel me? And they they in there gang banging. So what happens is they drew the line and it's like dog people versus people people, and they in there banging old school instantly like they this is gonna end in violence. Man, Like, I'm not bullshitting y'all. This is gonna end in violence, and I'm sitting back here enjoying it. You understand what I'm saying. Like, and I spent I ain't gonna lie to y'all yesterday. I ain't. I ain't out shit. I'm sitting here telling y'all what to do with y'all time, and how we need to eliminate distractions that we need to pursue our purpose. Yesterday, my purpose was the next door app. I spent about an hour and a half on there yesterday. I ain't if I'm lying, I'm flying blaying a butt naked. You feel me. I spent like an hour and a half on the yesterday. And guess what I'm about to do. I'm about to spend some more time on there, you feel me. I'm about to spend some more time on there. I'm finna read each and every comment. This lady got on there and said we'll stop taking our dogs in places when y'all stop taking y'all kids talk about them sanitary, they start banging in there. I said, they going crazy, They going crazy, They going crazy. I said, Ooh, I love it, man, I love this shit. Man, man, man, they in here and I ain't got to worry about catching no bullets. I ain't got well. My kids can still go play outside the ship and they ain't here beefing. Oh man, I love it. I love it. Look at look at thrive and go with Joe.

Fucking fur babies, ain't no damn it's a damn dog. Talk to them, dirt game. That's a dog, bro. Y'all be carrying them dogs and persons and shit like that. You punk ass dogs. It's a dog man. You kick a dog in ass and tye him up outside when it's cold, you feel me give him the leftovers. You understand I'm talking about this, These these fur babies, and oh I just love my dogs. These pet parents you ain't birth that motherfucker you got them, you got And all the people who pet pay pet babies and shiit pet parents are weird. Those You ain't no pet parents. That's a damn dog.

Them is them is dims, Them is this. This is trouble man Tuesday. So today I'm gonna tell you all the truth. Them is pets, Them is animals. You understand them talking about you? And people want you to respect they dogs like their kids. Ain't no fucking kids. That's a that's a damn dog. It's an animal. It's a dog. You st them talking about. It's a dog. It's not a person. It's not a child. Oh my fur babies. I love my fur baby so much. And people are in there like, well, what about emotional support? Dogs? An't eymore? You need emotional if you need an emotional let me let me calm my nerves, man, because there are people I love that got emotional support animals. Because I was about to say, if you got emotional sub poor animals, to use a bitch, but I I'm calming down. That's what But that's what happened in my mind though, Like if you got if you got emotional support animals, man, Like what the fuck is that? That's like old people have emotion You know who have emotional support animals? Old folks when they be in hospice, because they getting ready to go to that upper room. Nigga, Like they get ready to go to the upper room. You feel me, Like they get ready to go to the upper room. So yeah, you want to they won't They give them little rabbits and bunnies and hamsters. And shit, little soft furry things for them to pack. That's emotional support because they getting ready to go to that up room. You feel me, they getting ready to go to the upper room. So but people like oh, I got bad grades, I need my emotional support. Teenagers get emotional support animals, get the fuck out of here. You understand what I'm talking about. I gotta I got a daughter that's ten, My ten year old, my baby. You know what I me. I'm saying, she's the one that's she's a lot like me, right, my ten year old. So just for just for I give y'all context. I had a twenty three year old, got a ten year old. I got a I a seven year old. You know see what I'm saying, y'all asking about the gap? Man, your goddamn business, you feel me? Man, y'all business. If y'all could tell today's show is totally off the tracks, but it's trouble Man Tuesday. So it is what it is. My ten year old, she got an emotional support animal. You know who are emotional support animal is? It's her little brother, you feel me? Her little brother is her emotional support animal. You know something? Talking about like man, these teenagers running around here need emotional supper. We don't need no emotional support. You need to get kicked in your ass and do your chores. You understand what I'm saying. Get these kids some responsibilities. They need emotional support because they don't have no responsibilities. You don't give them responsibilities at home, and then they go outside in the world and they have responsibilities and they're not equipped. You understand what I'm saying. And when you get in the real world, don't nobody care nothing about your fucking excuses. You see what I'm saying. Don't nobody care nothing about your your your passivity that your parents cultivated. Don't nobody care nothing about that. In the real world, you are responsible for what you're You're responsible for what you produce. You understand what I'm saying. You're supposed to be producing something, and people have an inability to produce anymore, and now they need all this emotional support. No, you don't need emotional support. You need a kick in your ass. You understand what I'm saying. Like you need to, you need to, you need all right. I stopped, man, I stopped because I'm probably I'm probably hurting some of your feelings. So I quit because some of y'all got emotions. Some of y'all sitting there with your emotional support animals. Now you understand what I'm saying. Some of y'all sitting there with your emotional support animals. Now motherfucker's got a red nose pit bull and that's emotional support animal. Salute to you all, man, Thank y'all so much. Man, I really truly don't appreciate yoll But today let's get back to it, man. So we're gonna talk about something that don't get named enough in my opinion, dirt game Boss. It don't get named enough, but it's quietly destroying your focus, your progress, and ultimately your piece. The shit's broken, hence the thumbnail. It is broken, and it's quietly destroying those things. It's quietly destroying your focus, your progress, and ultimately your peace. And that is undefined roles. You feel me undefined roles. Like a lot of us, we think that we can't focus. And we think we can't focus because we're distracted, or because we're undisciplined, or because we lack we lack motivation. But that's not the real issue. Most of us, we can't focus because we don't know who who we're supposed to be in the moment. You understand what I'm saying. We can't focus because we don't know who we're supposed to be in a specific moment. And when our roles, our life roles are not clear, then our energy is gonna fragment. You understand what I'm saying. And then the focus is gonna disappear. So when our life role isn't clear, our energy is gonna fragment, and the focus is gonna disappear. Period. Yeah, thrive a glow with Joe's the next Door Act. So this ain't about doing less. It's about like, it's literally not about doing less. It's not about doing less. It's about really truly about doing the right things in the right roles at the right time. Let's get it. And I'm hustled harder than the moment. I'm a feast on these streets. Got a revolver I took for these niggas trying to take me off the block where out points up daily sit Bailey's out the bodily smoke. Yes indeed, yes, indeed, So let's really get let's really truly get to it. Does that make sense though, Like how we confuse life roles and how we confuse because our roles aren't defined, Like you don't have a you don't have a defined role, like you know what I'm saying, Like think about it, Like you might get up in the morning and you're you're you're, I don't know, man, you wake up as a parent, but then you start responding like you're an employee, and then you argue like you somebody's partner, but then you react like a wounded child, Like all in ten minutes. You feel me. There's really truly a lot of we go through our days with confusion as to how we should interact in these different life roles, right, Like you go to work as a supervisor and then you pull the person in because they're not performing, and the next thing you know, they're talking to you about everything that's going on in their personal life as to why they're not performing, and so you immediately go from being a supervisor to being an empathetic therapist. You feel me, and you're having to work through this through these different issues, Like we have all of these life role confusion components that just float around and keep us from being impactful. In my opinion. And also it keeps us off of art. It keeps us off our pivot. Salute to tay Tape Brown, what's up with you? Love? So let's start with something I see everywhere once again. It's roll overload. Roll overload. Roll overload is when you're carrying too many responsibilities without clarity as to which ones actually matter. We just got entirely too many responsibilities and we don't have clarity as to which ones actually matter, especially the ones that matter right now. You feel me? Period, You're always mentally switching, right, You're always mentally just switching. You feel guilty, even when you're resting, Like when you're resting, you feel guilty about stuff that you haven't done or places you aren't you feel me. You're never really fully present, you never feel done, you never feel done. And overload it really truly creates internal noise. You understand what I'm saying, Like your mind is constantly asking what am I forgetting? Who am I disappointing? What should I be doing instead? Like that's really what you Winston lyfle School Whinstane said, we're hitting the home runs. That's really what we're doing, though, Bro, It's roll overload, like what am I supposed to be doing? What am I forgetting? You understand what I'm saying, Like, I just it'd be times, Tivy two said, like an old school telephone switchboard operator. That's a fact, Like like I'll be leaving out my house and I'll be like, man, what am I forgetting? And I'll be asking myself repeatedly, like what am I forgetting? What am I forgetting? What am I forgetting? Roll overload? Yeah, And the fact of the matter is, though winstle Lee watched this, bro, you don't burn out because you're doing too much you feel me. You burn out because you're doing too much of what doesn't align. You feel me, we're doing too much of what doesn't align. So role alignment is when your roles are clearly defined, they match your values, don't leave that out, and they fit the current season of your life. People be thinking I'm crazy, right, because there's a lot of shit that I don't do because it doesn't currently fit this season of my life. So I'm gonna give you a prime example. I get a lot of shit because of I don't really I'm not actively participating with my fraternity. I don't really actively participate in all of the activities and whatnot of the frat because it doesn't fit in this season of my life. I'm about to be forty eight years old. You understand what I'm saying. I'm about to be forty eight years old. I have. One adult child, young adult child, that needs my guidance, and I have two younger children that need my guidance. You understand what I'm saying, Like, I have various family dynamics that have a pool, a constant pool on my life. And when you think about all of your different roles in your life. My husband, I'm a father, I'm a brother, I'm a cousin, I'm an uncle. You understand what I'm saying. I'm a son. Did I say that? My nephew, I'm a leader, I'm a family members. A lot of different roles that are in my life right and so in this season of my life, and I've said this to you all, like I'm really truly trying to move in a court to my purpose. But also I am trying to move with integrity. And the thing for me is that I want everybody that I love to know that, without any shadow of a doubt, that I love them. You understand what I'm saying, So I don't have I don't have energy for that in the season that season of my life, I don't have energy for in my instance, the frat. I don't have energy for the frat in this season of my life. You understand what I'm saying. People say the same thing with me, like I get a lot of shit because I don't coach football. You feel me. And just so that we clear, I'm one of them ones where I'm from as it relates to the sport of football. What saha I say. I'm a legend, but I don't coach football. Coaching football does not fit in this season of my life. You understand what I'm saying. And all of the work that I do and am willing to do with student athletes has little to little to nothing to do with their physical performance on their field or court. I'm willing to work with them about them mastering themselves and putting themselves in a position to be successful in life. You feel me, So I got a lot of shift for that, but that doesn't fit in the current season of my life. So alignment doesn't mean that your life is easy, of course, but it means that your life makes sense, and so those things it would make absolutely no sense for me, Like it makes absolutely no sense for me at forty eight years old talking about I'm going to a chapter meeting. It makes absolutely no sense for me in this phase of my life to be talking about I'm going to I got stat practice for my friend. You can'll say what I'm talking about. It makes absolutely no sense for me to be saying I got football workouts. You understand what I'm saying. I got two kids that are athletes staying basketball season right now. I'm actually coaching my daughter and her team. You understand what I'm saying. So, like, I don't really have time for these things in this season of my life. Yeah, So I got my reflection question to you all is which roles are you actually quipped or even meant to play right now? Because we all got a lot of roles, right but which ones are you actually equipped to play right now? And equipped and even meant to play right now? That's the question. That's the question. What roles are you supposed to be playing right now? Yeah? Yeah, I don't want to. For some reason, I can't get off of this role alignment. But when I say roll alignment. Roll alignment is when your roles are clearly defined, they match your values, and they fit your current season of your life. That's roll alignment. I gotta do something else with that, but that's I need to highlight that. That's big. That's big. Yeah, all right. So here's the part people don't connect, right, So undefined roles they don't just create stress, but they fracture your energy. Tifty two says, yep, facts where you put your energy matters, and how you show up with your energy matters. If your energy is fragmented, guess what that's a problem. And so energy fragmentation, y'all know, I gotta I always gotta go deeper, and go deeper, and go so energy fragmentation. When I say that, all I mean is, basically, I'll give you an example. Part of you is at work, part of you is worried about home, part of you is thinking about your money. Part of you is guilty for not being somewhere else. That's when your energy is fragmented. You're never fully one place, You're never fully all in one place. You understand what I'm saying. One of the things I love so much about this holiday season, and I didn't want to come up out of this holiday season this year is there was a lot going on. We had a big loss in my family, a lot of different things going on. But this holiday season was for the first time in a long time, I got to fully be present and I felt that I was fully in one place. You understand what I'm saying. And I did a lot of chilling. I did a lot of chilling. I did a lot of sitting, and I I had a lot of stuff going on, but I was fully present and I was really truly concentrating on being present the first time in a very long time. So always hustle on bustle, hustle on bustle, hustle on bustle. This year I got the opportunity to really truly be present. And the reason why I'm able to hit this year with so much energy is because I really got the opportunity to really just be fully present and my energy wasn't fragmented over this Over the holiday, Saluta the brothers, you came in to building and what's up with you? Bro Ab said glad to hear that. Man, I appreciate it. Bro So when your energy is fragmented, that means part of you is at work, part of you's worried about home, part of you worried about your money, part of you feeling guilty for not being somewhere. You understand what I'm saying, y'all know y'all be feeling guilty when somebody invites you somewhere and then you don't go, and you be like, ah, man, I should have went. Ah that's some whole ass shit, and baba nah man. That's your energy is being fragmented. But fragmented energy creates a shallow focus. You understand what I'm saying. You might be busy all day, but nothing gets your full attention. And think about that, and when is the last time you were able to sit down, excuse me, and fully focus all of your attention on one thing. It's very rare, very rare. So when we tie that into basically just our life, think about it. Your work is gonna suffer Why because your energy is fragmented. Relationships are gonna suffer. Why because your energy is fragmented. Your creativity is gonna dry up? Why because your energy is fragmented. Felix, you know, I ain't lie if Felix new now as the artist is still in here. You know that you have a hard time creating when your energy is fragmented. Bro, you understand what I'm saying. When you are creating as an artist or a creator or a creative, she harsh. That is another creative, she unders Big Facts ninety three, what's up with you home? She harsh, that is a creative. A lot of y'all are creatives tifty two. A lot of y'all are created right, thrive and glow with Joe. You're creative. A lot of us are creative, and you understand that when you are when you are Knella, not Neella. I'm sorry, Lakiah, I call her Nella because that's her faithfulk name, Kia. A lot of us are creatives. You understand that when your energy is fragmented, it is so difficult for you to so difficult for you to create. You like, I just ain't in the mood. I just can't do it. I can't because your energy is fragmented and your focus. Your focus doesn't disappear randomly, It disappear when your roles are actually collide and your energy is fragmented. That is the quint essential component of the simple truth minute manual. That is what I talk about, compartmentalizing your energy to avoid your energy being fragmented. When you're at work. You're at work, when you're at home. You're at home, when you're with your kids, You with your kids, when you with your homeboys, you with your homeboys, when you with your home girls, you with your homegirls. She Harstadt says, I'm going through that right now. You're exactly right. I know I'm right. Girl. I'm gonna hit that motherfucker a whole lot more than I miss it. She heartstat you feel me. I'm gonna hit it a whole lot more than I miss it. Because this is I'm talking to y'all from my soul, because this is where I live, like this is, this is where I live. I'm not perfect. I don't have it all together. I don't. I'm working on figuring it out, which is why I can come and speak to you all like this, because I'm going through it. You feel me, But your focus, it doesn't disappear randomly like that shit ain't random. It disappears when your roles collide. Let me kill some shit real quick. It's trouble man Tuesday, So let me go O aheit him kill something. Let's offer it. Let's offer a let's offer a living sacrifice to the gods. We're gonna offer a living sacrifice to whatever gods may be. Y'all ready for this. Let's kill something real quick. She harshtacked. She said, okay, let's kill it. Let's kill it. She hardstacked. Multitasking is not a strength. Multitasking is not a strength. Your ability or willingness to multitask is not a strength. Y'all might want to write this down. Multitasking is not a strength. It is a survival response to unclear priorities. I should shut this computer down and go sit outside. It is too cold to sit outside. I should go find me something else to do, because I done just slimmed it in jail for you, y'all. Make sure it was broke. We just killed that bitch. We just killed it. We just sacrificed that. We didn't cut it, we didn't cleaned it, we didn't burnt it, and we didn't smear the blood on the wall I'm talking of. I'm talking a First Testament sacrifice. Multitasking is not a strength, y'all. Some of y'all, as some of y'all sit here. Multitasking. Multitasking is not a strength. It's a survival response to unclear priorities. Saw that shit is multitasking. Your ability, to your willingness to multitask is not a strength. It's a survival response to unclear priorities. We'll give it up for my dog ass self. That's what that is. So we sit here. So when you listen to people talk and they say I can multi task, shut the fuck up. Shut that shit up. You cannot multitask. All that means is your ass is gonna do everything half ass, like Pap Paul saying you're gonna do every You're gonna do everything that you multitask, You're gonna do it half ass. Multitasking is not a strength. Stop letting people run that on you. When you sitting there and you're trying to have a conversation with somebody and they doing something, and you say, okay, do I need to come back and they say no, I can multitask, your response should be fuck you. I'm sorry to be so vulgar, but it's trouble man, Tuesday. If I'm sitting here and I can't get your full undivided attention. I'm cool, Slim. I'll come back when I can get your undivided attention. Those that know me personally know like, you're not gonna be able. If we sitting here and I'm trying to have a concentrated conversation with you and you picking up doing stuff or doing this or on the computer or whatever, I will stop talking. You know who the fuck I am. I will stop talking to you. I will get up and walk away before I allow you to multitask on me. Never, multitasking is not a strength. It's a survival response to unclear priorities. Your brain does not multitask. Do you understand that the brain doesn't multitask. It switches. Your brain switches. It doesn't multitask, it switches. So even in your head, think about it. When you're doing this, and then you stop doing this and you pick this up and you do that, or then you're doing this, or you might be trying to listen to something on your headphones and then you're doing something else, and then you realize when you're in the midst of you doing something that you didn't hear what the fuck was even being said in your headphones. You feel me your brain does not multitask. It switches. It's like trying to tune into three radio stations all at the same time, the old school radio stations. It's like trying to tune into three radio stations all at once. All you're gonna get is the static. So are you gonna get? Yeah, When you don't know which role you're supposed to be in, you just keep switching. That's what you're do in real life, Like you just keep switching, switching. That's your survival response. You just keep switching. So when you're so, when you're when you're a don't know which role you're supposed to be in right now, you just keep switching and that and we call it multitasking. So a parent, then a professional, then a spouse or a partner, a friend, leader, individual, all at once, and every time you switch is zaps your energy. Every every every switch costs you energy. Focus isn't about doing less. It's it's about doing the right thing in the right role at the right time. That's what focus is. You might want to write that down. Focus isn't about doing less. Oh I didne took y'all the last the school today. Shit, y'all I done took us to school today. Focus isn't about doing less, It's about doing the right thing in the right role at the right time. Now, this is where people mess up, right, We try to we we try to fix our focus with hacks. You understand what I'm saying. We try to hack our way. It's all you hear now is hack hack life, hack, hack focus, hack time, hack, cat cat cat cat cack hack these nuts. We got timers, we got apps, we got schedules, you feel me. We got motivation speeches. But before you can even embark on any of these tools, right, there has to be awareness. That is why in the planner, in the Simple Truth Minute Manual Planner for twenty twenty six, the first thing that we're doing is we're entering into intentional awareness with the Self Mastery Blueprint. We're starting with intentional awareness for the whole month of January. This is intentional awareness. Before you can do anything, before the adjustments, there has to be awareness. So when I say awareness, y'all know, we gotta go deep when I say awareness because a lot of y'all don't understand what I'm saying when I say awareness. So let's define it. Salut to be about a fence of the building. I say, your homie, awareness is inventory. Understand what I'm saying. It's inventory. Just like yo, ask know how many cans of beans you've got so that you can make chili. That's awareness. You understand what I'm saying. Just like you know that that that your favorite, uh, your favorite sweatshirt is clean so that you can wear it because you want to wear it this weekend. That's awareness. Awareness is inventory. Be about a forest because we're trying to make some We're trying to make some We're trying to make some jelly, so we know what the inventory is as it relates to our berries, because we're gonna make some gem you feel me like awareness is inventory. Awareness is asking what role am I actively playing? Which ones feed me, which ones drain me? Where is my attention leaky? That's what our awareness is, asking what roles am I actively playing? Which ones feed me, which ones drain me? Where is my attention leaky? And truth be told. Awareness is the pause that actually gives you powerful. Excuse me, actually gives you power. That's why it's so important. It's the pause that gives you power. Before you adjust your schedule, you have to adjust your perspective. And I'm gonna tell you why awareness. Like everybody talks about these hacks and the cheat code and YadA YadA, YadA YadA, so let me, let me, let me give you this the real, the real hack, the real cheat code is awareness. Because awareness unlocks everything. It unlocks cleaner boundaries, It unlocks fewer guilt driven decisions. It it unlocks the better energy allocation, meaning where can you spend your energy in a better in a better focus that's more in line with your purpose. It unlocks calmer focus. You don't need more discipline, You need clearer role definition. You need to be more clear about the roles that you participate in period. And this is the fact, though, when your roles are defined, something powerful happens. When your roles are defined, something powerful happens to you. Your mind actually calms down. You feel me like, your mind actually calms down when you literally define your roles. Your mind calms down. Tifty two said, awareness is the pause that gives you power. That's a bar, she said, that's a bar. Your mind actually calms down. Your mind calms down. I'm gonna tell you because it knows who you are right now. That's half the battle. It knows who you are right now, it knows what matters in this moment. It also knows most importantly what can wait. And that's alignment. That is alignment. Think about it. Think about how you go and talk to people like this is like we gotta practically apply this. It's like this is real life. Think about when you go and talk to somebody and how you're talking to them and they're not really there. They're looking around you, or they're looking over somewhere else and they gotta go do something else. You feel me, I'm always the person if I'm talking to you and you're looking around, and I always I'll stop and say, oh you gotta go do that, Gonna take care of that. I'll get with you. But you have to really truly look at these things like who you are right now, what matters in this moment, and what can wait? What can wait? Man? And I'm always around like I'm really intentional, especially when it comes to y'all bad ass kids and grownd folks sitting here talking and your bad ass kids come up interjecting and wanting to take this and want to want you to do this, and want you to stop doing this, and man, I don't be on that shit. Now, fuck them kids, they can wait. You're saying when the grown folks talking right here, I'm under the old law. We weren't allowed to talk when grownd folks was talking. Remember, you had to navigate and you had to wait for that break in the grownd folks conversation to say anything. You've been to open your mouth when grown folks is talking. I'm under the old law. You feel me. You had to literally, I don't remember that. Y'all had to wait for that break like double dutch. Y'all don't know what I'm talking about. Now. That's the oh lad. You couldn't just start talking to ground folks when they was talking. You have to wait. Literally, you better not interrupt no ground folks when they talk. I don't give fuck what's going on? Be about a farm? Say, raise your hand, you unsta what I'm talking about. Nah, you had to wait, And that's what I'm saying. You understand when your mind calms down, you understand what can wait? All right, family, If your focus is broken, y'all see that, y'all see y'all see the come there. If your focus is broken, don't assume that it's because you lazy, because that's what y'all, that's what we do. We our focus is broken, and we just think we're lazy or we're something's wrong with us. You understand what I'm saying is you don't assume that you're lazy because your focus is broken. You go and check your role. Go check your rolls, like literally, check your life rolls. Clarify what you're responsible for and what you're not. That's why we talked the way we talked yesterday. Really clarify what you're responsible for and what you're not. Because when your roles are clear, then your energy aligns and then your focus is gonna come back. Were no longer chasing productivity. That's over with. We're not chasing productivity. We're building clarity. We're gonna build clarity. The hell with chase some productivity. We're gonna build clarity. You understand what I'm saying. We're building clarity. I'm sitting here with my hands wide open because I really want you all to get this. Check your roles. What roles are you in? Shee heart stat Check your life rolls? What roles do you have? What's important? If you didn't. If you didn't listen to yesterday's show, go check Monday show, Go check yesterday's show. You got it. You have to get clear on your rolls. You have to get clear on your rolls. If your focus is broken, don't assume it's because you're lazy. Check your roles. You clarify what you're responsible for and more importantly, clarify what you are not responsible for. And when your roles are clear, your energy is gonna lie.
