elt good because it was something I needed to do and it got off my list. So if you're wasting a bad attitude you're really missing out. Because when I have a bad day do you ever have a bad day where there's nothing that could bother you? It's so bad like you know nothing could bother me today because I'm already in such a bad mood it's not going to make any difference at all. And then you can just do all those things that would have bothered you otherwise. Yeah all those things.

Any manager can take criticism. Nobody can take humiliation. Did I say that? Sounds like something I might have said. Oh saying it was your honor to take care of your mother before she died even though she was a crappy parent. That's one of my favorites. Yeah. Well my favorite for dealing with tragedy which is usually the death of a loved one is that it's not a tragedy it's an honor. It's an honor if you can be one of the last ones in the room. That's an honor. And I certainly feel that way for my animals. There's no way I wouldn't be in the room for my cat's passing. That's an honor.

A view on pardon dangling. It's good strategy. Pardon dangling is good political strategy. People will vote on that basis. That's why you tell your patients' families as a hospice nurse. Well good. So a hospice nurse is confirming that reframe. That's good to hear. Oh I'm sorry about your dog Jack. Oh yeah somebody likes my everyone is addicted to something. I don't think I have that in the book yet. Oh remind me to put that in the book. Yeah everyone's addicted to something. You just have to pick one. An addiction that's good for you. You know exercise. That's a good addiction. And if you had to pick a mind-altering one there are definitely some that are better than others. Now I don't recommend anybody smoke marijuana because I'm not a doctor and it is a drug. Legal or not it's a drug. So I don't recommend a drug to anybody. Talk to your doctor. But of all the drugs that I personally could do given that I don't metabolize alcohol very well etc it's the best. It's the best addiction for me. Now it has its downsides as everything does but of all the addictions I could choose it's the best one for me. But yours would be different.

Your wife Mindy is listening. She says hello and won't stop commenting during the stream. Mindy, Mindy. I think Mindy we have to give her the listener award. Mindy you are listener of the week. I'm gonna give you an award for this because you're the most engaged listener that I've heard of all morning. So everybody give Mindy some respect because Mindy is engaged. She's involved.

A post-divorce reframe. I offer you mine. You got married because you both wanted to get married and you probably got divorced because you both wanted to get divorced. That's usually the way it works. So you got what you wanted twice. That's how it works. That's your best case scenario. Things go wrong all the time. Do you know what would be far worse? Not getting a divorce. It sounds like that would have been worse.

Now I also like, and I'm in this situation right now. So this weekend I'll have basically you know close to no human contact for like three days. It's not exactly true but you know 23 out of 24 hours I'll have no human contact for the three days. Could you handle that? Could you handle that little human contact for three days in a row? A lot of you say yes. Yeah you prefer it. You know I love my privacy. When I don't have to have it I like privacy. If it's optional I don't like it if it's forced on me. Yeah. So I'm in a situation now where I have to rebuild who I am right after my first divorce. And after the first you know there's a relationship before that. Each time I had to start from scratch and just figure out who I am.

There's an Imagine Dragons song that got me through my first divorce. And it was you'll probably help me. You'll have to help me with the title of it. It's about starting from the bottom and building back. What's the name of it? It's Imagine Dragons and you're starting at the bottom and you're working yourself back. It was sort of an inspirational story. What's the title of it anyway? But the essence of it was there was somebody who if I understood the lyrics right it was somebody who was dropping out of music, some kind of performing arts school I assume. This is the actual biographical story of the singer. And he dropped out with not knowing what was next. And he called it starting from the bottom and building back up. Is it Radioactive or is it called Start Over? I don't know. Whichever one. No it's not called Start Over. Is it? That's the actual name of the song? I don't think so. But the point is this. This is very much the freedom's just another word for nothing left to lose. So if you're focused on the stuff you lost you're going to miss the fact that you just opened up all of your options and you finally are experiencing freedom. And it's really scary.

So last night at I don't know
