[1759.68 --> 1765.02] And I really think that's what helps so many of us in whatever we're doing, right?
[1765.10 --> 1767.86] If we can go, well, do I really care about this?
[1767.92 --> 1773.98] Is it, like, relative to my career, my relationships, where I live, who I surround myself with?
[1774.38 --> 1775.42] Like, why?
[1776.50 --> 1777.88] Why are you doing that?
[1777.88 --> 1779.52] Yeah.
[1780.64 --> 1782.20] That's something that happened to me over the weekend, actually.
[1782.22 --> 1785.72] I was going to do something without any context.
[1785.84 --> 1787.26] I'll just be very vague.
[1787.68 --> 1788.92] So forgive the vagueness.
[1789.06 --> 1797.12] But I had something on my mind that was very – I had a lot of passion involved in it and a lot of brain space involved in it.
[1797.16 --> 1798.64] And I was, like, stuck on this thing.
[1798.70 --> 1799.88] I'm like, but why?
[1800.32 --> 1801.80] Why am I going to do this thing?
[1801.80 --> 1806.64] Why am I going to say this thing to this person or share this insight with this person?
[1807.96 --> 1808.76] Do I care?
[1809.96 --> 1811.56] And back to that, what am I optimizing for?
[1811.64 --> 1813.48] Well, this is a weekend.
[1814.18 --> 1817.54] My weekends are 100% play with my family.
[1818.16 --> 1819.64] You know, play eight, sleep eight.
[1819.68 --> 1822.16] It's just more like play 12, sleep 12.
[1822.28 --> 1822.60] I don't know.
[1822.70 --> 1823.08] I'm just kidding.
[1823.14 --> 1826.96] I don't sleep 12 on the weekends, but just trying to do some quick division there on 24 hours.
[1827.12 --> 1829.56] But, you know, there's definitely no work on the weekends.
[1829.66 --> 1830.76] I got to divide my time otherwise.
[1830.76 --> 1833.70] And I didn't want to include that in my time.
[1834.20 --> 1835.82] But I thought about it and I eventually did it.
[1835.92 --> 1837.38] But I had the gut check.
[1837.84 --> 1838.76] Why are you doing this?
[1839.34 --> 1840.22] Why does it matter to you?
[1840.38 --> 1841.24] Why do you care?
[1841.44 --> 1842.04] Do you care?
[1842.70 --> 1844.14] Why was the key question there.
[1844.18 --> 1844.52] Why?
[1845.04 --> 1846.88] And I think when you know your why –
[1846.88 --> 1847.14] Yeah.
[1847.72 --> 1850.38] But what you did is in that moment you zoomed out.
[1850.94 --> 1855.32] And you were able to ask yourself that fundamental question, why?
[1855.32 --> 1855.52] Why?
[1855.94 --> 1859.30] And then go, am I going to make time for this?
[1860.22 --> 1864.38] Because do I or don't I value this thing?
[1865.20 --> 1866.48] Well, back to this.
[1866.72 --> 1868.02] Time management is pain management.
[1868.02 --> 1873.90] If I place my time in that, sure, I may not endure actual literal pain.
[1874.46 --> 1882.72] But as a variation of that, well, maybe the pain is taking away from the amount of time I dedicate to family time on my weekend.
[1883.38 --> 1892.58] So that is painful to me to get 10 years down the road and say that one weekend I missed the coolest moment of my newest son's life.
[1893.08 --> 1894.18] Dude's sitting up now.
[1894.48 --> 1897.04] I could have missed him sitting up for the first time like on his own.
[1897.10 --> 1897.48] He's a baby.
[1897.66 --> 1897.76] Yeah.
[1897.88 --> 1898.60] Six months old.
[1898.64 --> 1898.88] Yeah.
[1898.96 --> 1899.16] Right?
[1899.36 --> 1902.88] I could have missed that moment if I put my time elsewhere.
[1903.12 --> 1907.78] And sure, it may be a small thing or whatever, but it's these tradeoffs we make in our life.
[1908.46 --> 1908.86] Right?
[1909.28 --> 1909.58] Yep.
[1909.58 --> 1911.86] And we start doing things we don't actually care about.
[1911.86 --> 1917.06] And you get so far down the line, it's Marielle back at her computer for the first hour wasting time.
[1918.30 --> 1919.72] And there's excuses, sure.
[1919.76 --> 1919.92] Sure.
[1920.00 --> 1921.52] But, you know, I'm just using that as an example.
[1921.60 --> 1922.82] But, like, that's what we do.
[1922.92 --> 1924.96] We wake up a time frame later.
[1925.08 --> 1926.68] It could be sometimes years later.
[1926.80 --> 1927.02] Right.
[1927.30 --> 1928.22] What was I doing?
[1929.00 --> 1929.96] Did I really care?
[1930.16 --> 1930.32] Yeah.
[1930.40 --> 1930.76] Why?
[1931.78 --> 1933.00] Could I ask why earlier?
[1933.10 --> 1933.40] Yeah.
[1934.66 --> 1935.90] Should have asked why earlier.
[1936.28 --> 1937.16] Am I should on somebody there?
[1937.28 --> 1937.66] I don't know.
[1937.66 --> 1938.20] We'll see.
[1938.20 --> 1938.26] Yeah.
[1938.86 --> 1945.12] Another sort of analogy to think about is, like, an anchor in that our values really anchor us.
[1945.44 --> 1945.62] Right?
[1945.72 --> 1951.08] So we don't drift too far by the things like pop-ups that distract us.
[1951.38 --> 1951.86] Right?
[1952.06 --> 1959.48] You know, I think about this, like, with my kids when they're sort of on technology more now than they've ever been with changing times.
[1959.48 --> 1964.32] And, you know, they're so distracted by the pop-ups on the other side.
[1964.38 --> 1965.70] And I'm like, stop looking at those things.
[1966.16 --> 1974.76] But, like, I've learned to train my mind to sort of filter out things that aren't relevant to where I'm trying to go or what information I'm trying to capture.
[1975.72 --> 1976.12] Right?
[1976.12 --> 1983.88] So I'm like, I'm here to do a task to finish this assignment, and I don't want to be deterred by whatever ads you're trying to sell me right now.
[1984.46 --> 1992.44] But, you know, the less mature mind and the, you know, brain that's still in process is sort of like, well, I'm curious about that.
[1992.66 --> 1993.50] What about this?
[1993.50 --> 2004.54] And so, you know, when we make time, we really – I love the way that this philosopher – there was a Stoic philosopher, Heraculis – what word was that?
[2005.68 --> 2006.16] Heraculis?
[2006.38 --> 2007.16] Is that how you say it?
[2007.64 --> 2008.28] He –
[2008.28 --> 2010.88] I don't know how to say that, honestly.
[2011.20 --> 2012.00] I'd follow that, too.
[2012.00 --> 2015.48] He talks about this interconnected nature of our lives with concentric circles.
[2015.48 --> 2021.00] So thinking about, you know, the smaller circle embedded in a bigger circle and then a larger circle, et cetera.
[2021.00 --> 2024.56] And he put the mind and body at that center, like yourself.
[2024.86 --> 2041.26] You have to start by managing, like you value yourself, followed by the broader circle of your close family and extended family and then your tribe and then other inhabitants of, like, your community, finishing with the rest of humanity.
