official word is. The official word is the vaccinated people don't even have the virus as long. So if you're vaccinated maybe you could spread it just as much for a day but if you're unvaccinated you can spread it that same amount for let's say three days. I'm making up the numbers but do you get that Lucy? That according to the official word there would be a really big difference but not at any…
← Previous segment →. Fortunately most of us just have that fleeting thought and it's not actually actualized. But let's say you have one of those days when you say damn it it's just not worth it.
Here's what you do. Redefine it this way. Say to yourself you know suppose I did plan to end it all and this was my last day. How would I act differently if it were my last day? Well you wouldn't have to worry about getting embarrassed would you? Suppose you could live one day of your life with no risk of embarrassment and you don't even worry about let's say exceeding the speed limit. You just stop worrying about what people think of you.

Well you don't feel bad if you're going to die tomorrow. Like hopefully you're not going to die tomorrow and that's not your plan but frame it that way. Just allow yourself to feel it's the last day on earth. It changes everything. It's a really good trick. I use it all the time and it's amazing. You will thank me.
Yes it's like the movie It's a Wonderful Life in a sense. Yes. Scott in all capitals explain why the death counts are up since the vaccines and other treatments. Is that a mystery to anybody? Why would the death counts be up at the same time that vaccines are more fully implemented? Can anybody answer that? Because there's more infection. Was that hard? If there's more infection there's more death no

matter what you're doing about it, right? Why did World War II kill more people than your neighbors arguing about their trash cans? Because it was World War II and that's not you neighbor. You know it's not like arguing with your neighbor. If infections go through the roof the death count's going up no matter what. Doesn't matter how many people are vaccinated. And everybody's vaccinated. Once yo…
