Riding the Hiply Wave with my little brother, surfer and surf shop owner, Robert Stehlik, in Hawaii. We talk about the struggle of balancing what we want when even when it gets hard to accomplish, like posting a youtube video every week. We practice hiply to recognize that the things that make us happy in the long run don't always make us happy in the moment. According to Gretchen Rubin, there's four things that influence our happiness. It's feeling good, feeling bad. Being in an atmosphere of growth, and being in your integrity. For example, feeling like you're doing the right thing. So feeling good is easy. When you're feeling good, you're happy. But sometimes in order to do the right thing to be in your integrity, which in your case would be posting every day you have to like feel bad for a minute as you get going on posting the video or working on the video shooting the video. Yeah, and then you want the atmosphere of growth, which also does not always feel great in the moment, but you know, that's who you want to be as a person. So just sort of reframing Hey, It's okay, I'm feeling a little bad right now. That's normal. That's okay. Instead of charging the feeling bad, which I think is what we so often do, because that's what we're socialized to do.
Notable Quotes:
(4.47) I'm trying to do is sort of combine and make more accessible all The things I've learned in the last few years as I'm going through life coach, I have gone through life coach training. Now I have 400 hours of practice coaching and training. And what I found is that some of the modalities and ideas are a little bit clunky, a little bit hard to follow. So I'm trying to simplify it a little bit, normalize it, and I came up with some new words and new concepts to sort of help understand the human condition, if you will, to understand what's happening to us to know that you're, it's okay, nothing wrong with you, life is messy, things come up.
