Heyjim Gnes Here, we'll get back to the Building Better Humans Project podcast today. I'm just briefly talking about the triple eight routine, which is this idea of getting eight hours of sleep, and it's something I've been working on. Eight hours of sleep, eight hours of work, and eight hours of family and personal time. So splitting up your day where possible so that you can get all of those things in. Too often we find ourselves getting really out of whack we're doing. I have people that bragged me about twelve hour days and forteen hour days, and you do that consistently. Something has to give your health and fitness, your personal relationships with your partner, your kids, your mum and dad, or whoever's most important to you. And then I look at this and think a lot of people, including myself, I've done this over the years, where we set ourselves goals or things we want to chase, but we don't really do the work. We talked a little bit about this last week, and so I wanted to share with you just something that I wrote for myself as much as anything else. And it's something that I've got inside a book and helps keep me on track on the days where I know I'm just not getting the work done, and it's about challenging yourself. Are you being the person you say you want to be? So this d I wonte look at yourself with the way you are moving now, do you really think you'll become the person you've envisaged for yourself in the nearest future to come? Genuinely ask yourself, why do you waste so much time every day doing things that do not benefit your life? Let me tell you something. Everybody has a dream. You are no different from them. Your dream is not special. What makes it special is when you make it a reality. You have a vision for yourself, yet you share it with no one, but you fight for it like it was forced on you. You waste time scrolling social media, partying, chatting, watching garbage and the other bees you do. Ask yourself, will you respect somebody working as hard as you are now? No? Then stop playing around? Do the triple eight eight hours of sleep, eight hours of work and eight hours of family alone time. We cannot afford to end this year in the same position as we started, so changes must be made. Will it be easy, No? But will it be worth it? I believe so you have the potential to be a great person, someone worth remembering, yet you underutilize such power. Stop it, regain focus and maximize your efforts. Is that something that I wrote in general, taken from a few different sources and people and ideas and concepts. It's great for you, it's great for me. It helps keep me on track. I don't do some of those things. I'm not into the partying and all that sort of stuff necessarily. But do I waste time in places that I shouldn't do. I write schedules that I sometimes don't get to. If I don't do the work, who is adversely affected me? My partner, my family, my kids, the young people that we're going to be doing our youth reform with. Somewhere along the line, someone is effected if we don't do the work as individuals. And I'm very very conscious of that. And I was focusing this year in particular, and I started this last year not wasting time. I'm an energy on people's spaces, places that are not willing to change or do not add positively to me or the people around me, or the environment in any way, shape or form. I don't have the energy anymore to pour into cups that people don't want them poured into, and so therefore I need to make sure that where I spend my time it maximizes the benefit that I can give in the long term to the young people I'm trying to give it with. I just love that focus. Look at yourself with the way you're moving now, do you really think you become the person that you have envisaged for yourself in the future.
