1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,160
Would you consider yourself to be lazy?
2
00:00:02,880 --> 00:00:04,760
Would other people?
3
00:00:04,760 --> 00:00:10,100
Honestly would some of the people who are closest to you where they describe you as being lazy or just unmotivated and
4
00:00:10,720 --> 00:00:17,240
The big question is is your lack of motivation due to you not being interested or is it due to your fear of failure?
5
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:24,560
You know, let's take a look at what motivation is and how it pushes us forward and who better to look at than the genius of
6
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:26,000
Blue lock himself
7
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:30,520
Seishiro Nagi
8
00:00:42,240 --> 00:00:43,440
Hey, what's going on guys?
9
00:00:43,440 --> 00:00:49,160
My name is Nate and you're listening to the otaku liberation a show where we help you break free from the chains that are holding
10
00:00:49,160 --> 00:00:53,520
You back in your life by connecting biblical principles with themes from your favorite anime
11
00:00:53,520 --> 00:01:00,400
Now this is the spoiler warning section for all of my anime only listeners out there that we'll be covering over some things
12
00:01:00,600 --> 00:01:06,120
That are happening right now in the manga. So if you're not caught up and again, just just your spoiler warning
13
00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,120
So without further ado, let's get into it
14
00:01:08,640 --> 00:01:12,620
So my boy says she wrote nine, you know full disclaimer
15
00:01:12,620 --> 00:01:16,000
I might I might gush a little bit during this episode because Nagi is
16
00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:21,160
he's my favorite character and you're that of the entire entire series so far and
17
00:01:21,160 --> 00:01:28,200
It's just he's an animal and again, I'm sure I've talked about him a lot in previous episodes
18
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:32,840
so just a reiterate for anyone who doesn't understand or doesn't know who Nagi is and
19
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,880
in the grand scheme of blue lock Nagi is
20
00:01:37,360 --> 00:01:41,400
literally a genius like he's the definition of a genius when it comes to soccer and
21
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:45,680
That's because he hasn't even been playing soccer an entire year yet
22
00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:51,400
But again, everyone else in blue lock has typically been playing soccer the majority
23
00:01:51,400 --> 00:01:56,040
if not the entirety of their of their lives up to this point to get to the level that they're at now and
24
00:01:56,920 --> 00:01:59,720
Nagi just pick it up. I believe don't quote me on it
25
00:01:59,720 --> 00:02:02,120
I believe it's like six months or around six months before
26
00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:07,980
coming to blue lock and he's already surpassed the vast majority of the cast in terms of
27
00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,440
you know talent and skill and what he has what he can do and
28
00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:17,520
That says a lot right? I mean, I don't know if I've worked hard on something my entire life to really hone my skill
29
00:02:17,520 --> 00:02:24,160
And to submit my place is one of the best of the best and then some newcomer comes out with not own like a fraction of
30
00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:27,000
the time that I've put into it and
31
00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:32,160
They're already leagues better than I am right? So I understand is
32
00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:35,920
It's just is a weird dynamic, but it's fascinating to see
33
00:02:36,640 --> 00:02:37,720
and
34
00:02:37,720 --> 00:02:40,160
You know before before Nagi
35
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:46,080
before before Nagi or before Reo introduced Nagi to soccer and before Nagi really started
36
00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:48,960
wanting to win
37
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:54,040
Nagi was just a lazy person like if a sloth had a human form it would be Nagi
38
00:02:54,600 --> 00:02:56,160
and
39
00:02:56,160 --> 00:02:58,160
It's just funny and
40
00:02:58,840 --> 00:03:02,840
It's crazy because he's good at all the different things like video games
41
00:03:02,840 --> 00:03:09,920
I obviously soccer and he's even good and he still does well in most of his classes with him being so lazy like falling asleep
42
00:03:09,920 --> 00:03:11,920
during the classes and
43
00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:16,800
you know, that's just the net raw natural talent that he was blessed with that he was given and
44
00:03:18,480 --> 00:03:20,560
You know it really made me wonder
45
00:03:20,560 --> 00:03:26,900
Okay, just kind of think how many of us are like that out there where we have this awesome awesome talent
46
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,360
that guy gave us that we are
47
00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,140
Just too you know, I'm just too lazy to to make anything of it
48
00:03:35,140 --> 00:03:39,780
You know, we don't want to put it put the work in or we don't know how to put the work in
49
00:03:39,780 --> 00:03:44,460
But if you don't know how are you asking the question to figure out how or are you just saying?
50
00:03:44,460 --> 00:03:47,660
Oh, man, I can't do it. You know, they just leave it leave it alone and
51
00:03:48,980 --> 00:03:53,180
Let me in I'm not speaking as you guys I'm speaking to myself as well. It's like, okay
52
00:03:54,060 --> 00:03:55,740
am I really
53
00:03:55,740 --> 00:03:57,740
putting forth my best effort to
54
00:03:58,340 --> 00:04:04,100
you know make this thing the best it can possibly be to make myself be the better version of myself or
55
00:04:04,100 --> 00:04:10,780
Am I just against you still stuck in in the last season of my life still stuck in what happened before?
56
00:04:11,220 --> 00:04:15,140
And it's stuck in the past. Okay, this this didn't work out before so maybe it's not gonna work out now
57
00:04:15,980 --> 00:04:17,980
and
58
00:04:18,300 --> 00:04:25,220
I'll just post that question to you guys. So what's what's what's going on? What's holding you back? What's stopping you from?
59
00:04:25,860 --> 00:04:27,900
Really digging in are you?
60
00:04:28,540 --> 00:04:31,220
Are you afraid of the pain?
61
00:04:31,220 --> 00:04:35,060
Of the potential pain are you afraid to start because you might fail at something?
62
00:04:36,500 --> 00:04:40,140
Good and again, I'm speaking from personal experience
63
00:04:40,660 --> 00:04:44,620
Just the different the different avenues different things
64
00:04:44,620 --> 00:04:49,540
I've tried in my young life so far and a lot of these things I've I
65
00:04:50,300 --> 00:04:53,860
Almost didn't start because I was afraid of the failure. I was afraid of the pain of
66
00:04:54,500 --> 00:04:56,500
disappointing myself and
67
00:04:56,780 --> 00:04:59,540
Not living up to the expectations. I set myself at
68
00:04:59,540 --> 00:05:01,540
and
69
00:05:01,540 --> 00:05:04,660
I mean, that's again, that's a dangerous thing. You can easily easily
70
00:05:05,340 --> 00:05:07,340
It's just lose
71
00:05:07,340 --> 00:05:11,620
You lose sense of yourself by holding yourself to too high of a standard because again remember we're all human
72
00:05:11,620 --> 00:05:15,180
We're all gonna make mistakes. None of us are perfect. All right, and
73
00:05:16,060 --> 00:05:20,860
And sometimes the hardest person that you the person your heart is on is yourself, right?
74
00:05:21,380 --> 00:05:25,740
Because again, like I like I always tell you guys I mean you're the main character of your own story
75
00:05:25,740 --> 00:05:31,340
So you expect to be the protagonist to be you know, they have the plot armor as we say, right?
76
00:05:31,340 --> 00:05:33,980
They have everything just gonna go your way, but when it doesn't
77
00:05:34,780 --> 00:05:40,100
How do you react to it? How do you handle it now? Some people take it in strides. All right, cool
78
00:05:40,100 --> 00:05:45,020
You know it is what it is and now it's time to go you can go on to the next one and some people
79
00:05:45,420 --> 00:05:51,020
Just you know, they freeze up and just say oh man. I've never wanted to have to go through that again
80
00:05:51,020 --> 00:05:52,700
So I'm just not gonna do anything else
81
00:05:52,700 --> 00:05:57,420
I'm gonna stick to what I know stick to what I'm comfortable with and just never push forward never
82
00:05:58,140 --> 00:06:00,940
never try to go to that next level and
83
00:06:01,820 --> 00:06:05,260
again, that's what the again, that's what the laziness comes in because
84
00:06:06,460 --> 00:06:08,460
You know you can
85
00:06:09,020 --> 00:06:13,900
You can say that oh man, I'll just try it again later or it just this just isn't for me
86
00:06:13,900 --> 00:06:15,100
but
87
00:06:15,100 --> 00:06:20,620
The reality is again like that the question opposed in the beginning is is your lack of motivation
88
00:06:20,620 --> 00:06:26,540
due to you not being interested like you just genuinely not interested in whatever it is that you're that you
89
00:06:26,940 --> 00:06:32,540
Might have pondered before and like you maybe thought about it. It's like, eh, I mean, this isn't really for me or
90
00:06:33,100 --> 00:06:38,540
Is it because you're scared of failing? Is it it's just the pain of
91
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:43,740
Failing is something that you think you should succeed at just so detrimental that so
92
00:06:44,460 --> 00:06:49,740
You know bone chilling bone chilling and gripping that you don't even know what you're doing
93
00:06:49,740 --> 00:06:52,940
you don't even want to take the chance you didn't want to take that step and
94
00:06:53,660 --> 00:06:57,740
I know that's a scary thing to think about it really is it's
95
00:06:59,100 --> 00:07:01,100
we all have a
96
00:07:01,420 --> 00:07:07,180
Natural fear of the unknown, right? I mean, I mean it's a psychological thing our brains
97
00:07:08,060 --> 00:07:10,060
work to keep us safe and
98
00:07:10,500 --> 00:07:15,580
to protect us from really from the outside world and the unknown is
99
00:07:15,580 --> 00:07:21,500
Is it's just that it's an unknown variable your brain doesn't know how to process that it doesn't know what's gonna happen
100
00:07:21,820 --> 00:07:26,940
So because it doesn't know it tries to figure out ways to protect you from what it doesn't know
101
00:07:26,940 --> 00:07:29,020
so at least telling your anxieties and
102
00:07:29,500 --> 00:07:35,100
Stressing about things like they think that you honestly sometimes we can't even control over right?
103
00:07:35,380 --> 00:07:39,140
Yeah, it's just just just there's just things in this life that we can't
104
00:07:39,540 --> 00:07:44,160
You can't control but we try to and that leads to the anxieties and the stresses
105
00:07:44,160 --> 00:07:51,200
But again, one of the biggest things that I'm always gonna you know preaching harp on is that we have full control over ourselves
106
00:07:51,780 --> 00:07:57,600
Can we that's the only thing that we have full control over is ourselves and how we react to the world around us how we?
107
00:07:58,460 --> 00:08:02,300
perceive ourselves how we conduct ourselves in a day-to-day basis and
108
00:08:04,100 --> 00:08:06,180
Ultimately how we know we push ourselves and
109
00:08:07,860 --> 00:08:12,820
So and we just I encourage all of us to kind of take that mindset and just really look
110
00:08:12,820 --> 00:08:20,780
Inwardly really reflect on that. So, okay again, we're the main story main characters of this story of our own story of our own life and
111
00:08:22,380 --> 00:08:26,980
That's that's how it is. No one else is ever gonna take that from you unless you let them
112
00:08:27,420 --> 00:08:31,860
This key part unless you let them, you know, you're you're never gonna
113
00:08:32,620 --> 00:08:36,800
Again, you're never gonna amount to anything if you don't take the risk and try
114
00:08:37,660 --> 00:08:41,380
Because then they all you have to do is try right and I say you're gonna succeed at it
115
00:08:41,380 --> 00:08:44,540
I'm not saying you're gonna be the best at it. I'm not even say you're gonna fail at it
116
00:08:44,780 --> 00:08:49,900
I'm just saying you owe it to yourself to at least take the risk to at least take that chance
117
00:08:50,060 --> 00:08:53,540
So at least put yourself out there because we we never know what's gonna happen
118
00:08:53,580 --> 00:08:59,420
You know, we never know what's gonna happen today tomorrow next week next year three years from now five years from now
119
00:08:59,680 --> 00:09:07,180
You know you starting that thing you starting that business you starting this starting that podcast you you know
120
00:09:07,180 --> 00:09:12,300
Reaching out and talking to that and to that one person you've been eyeing across the room for the last 20 minutes, right?
121
00:09:12,300 --> 00:09:16,860
I'm trying to work up the nerve to go over and talk to him. You never know what's gonna happen in
122
00:09:17,500 --> 00:09:21,300
And I know it's it's a fear is a fearful thing
123
00:09:21,300 --> 00:09:26,460
But it's also an exciting thing just the possibilities right because think about you are
124
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:30,660
You oh, thank you. Holy Spirit. Let me put it this way
125
00:09:31,300 --> 00:09:35,100
Instead of wasting so much time trying to predict the future
126
00:09:35,100 --> 00:09:40,820
Why don't you take the time to create it and what I mean about it instead of worrying about
127
00:09:42,060 --> 00:09:47,660
What it would it could have should have what what might happen what could have why don't you make the step take the actionable steps
128
00:09:47,660 --> 00:09:55,020
You can today and start walking towards the future that you want to see that you want to see anyone that you want to create and
129
00:09:56,220 --> 00:10:00,620
Go go with that because again, it's your life, right?
130
00:10:00,620 --> 00:10:05,260
It's your life you need to take the time and really think about what it is
131
00:10:05,260 --> 00:10:07,260
What is it that you want?
132
00:10:07,260 --> 00:10:09,260
Excuse me
133
00:10:09,260 --> 00:10:15,860
And again the first one the verse I want to go over for this episode is Proverbs 19 15
134
00:10:16,860 --> 00:10:20,900
Again, this is the CSB version. So because again, I don't speak the ye old English
135
00:10:20,900 --> 00:10:29,140
But for Proverbs chapter 19 verse 15 laziness induces deep sleep and a lazy person will go hungry
136
00:10:29,140 --> 00:10:31,140
So basically you're gonna become
137
00:10:31,140 --> 00:10:35,060
Lethargic you're gonna become just not just complacent but
138
00:10:35,780 --> 00:10:37,780
borderline dead to the world you can be just so
139
00:10:38,740 --> 00:10:45,780
Your spirits can be so in just an inept at that point that you're not gonna want to do anything else and I don't know about you
140
00:10:45,780 --> 00:10:49,620
That's not living to me. That's not living. That's not living life. That's just
141
00:10:50,740 --> 00:10:55,060
Existing right you're not living life. You're just existing in it and
142
00:10:55,060 --> 00:11:00,260
I don't want anyone to have to go through that to stay there and to think that there's no way out when
143
00:11:01,060 --> 00:11:03,780
Really you just you hold the keys to your own success
144
00:11:04,340 --> 00:11:06,660
You just got to be willing to you know
145
00:11:06,660 --> 00:11:10,260
Take the first step and try each key until you find find the right one for that lock
146
00:11:10,900 --> 00:11:15,140
And to open that door to open that door to the next opportunity to your big break to
147
00:11:15,540 --> 00:11:20,900
You know, you're happily ever after however, you want to put it and again, it's all about the first step
148
00:11:21,860 --> 00:11:22,980
and
149
00:11:22,980 --> 00:11:27,700
Nagi took that first step right when he decided to play with Rio and come to blue lock and
150
00:11:28,580 --> 00:11:34,340
If he had never come to blue lock, he would never learn the joy of soccer for him right for me again
151
00:11:34,340 --> 00:11:36,900
this is his personal journey and
152
00:11:38,580 --> 00:11:41,460
Honestly when you so let's fast forward
153
00:11:41,460 --> 00:11:46,420
Let's say you take that first step. Let's say you take the chance on whatever it is that idea you have that that
154
00:11:47,060 --> 00:11:50,020
Potential relationship that you may want to pursue things like that
155
00:11:50,020 --> 00:11:55,060
so you take it and you're making strides making strides towards towards your end goal and
156
00:11:56,020 --> 00:11:57,780
Boom you hit a wall
157
00:11:57,780 --> 00:12:03,620
You something happens, you know, you got maybe maybe if your race if you have an argument you break up
158
00:12:03,620 --> 00:12:06,900
Maybe your business venture. Maybe you your business goes bankrupt
159
00:12:08,580 --> 00:12:14,500
Things like that, maybe you don't get the promotion that you work so hard to pursue whatever it is life happens
160
00:12:14,500 --> 00:12:16,500
something gets in your way and
161
00:12:16,500 --> 00:12:22,340
For a lot of us even on if this is the first time or it's just the most recent time that you have that taste of defeat
162
00:12:22,340 --> 00:12:24,340
of that failure of
163
00:12:25,060 --> 00:12:27,060
You know something not going your way
164
00:12:27,620 --> 00:12:28,500
and
165
00:12:28,500 --> 00:12:32,820
For not in Nagi's case his first time was when he lost to Isagi during their match
166
00:12:32,820 --> 00:12:36,500
You know during that last goal that Isagi scored. It was the first time Nagi
167
00:12:37,140 --> 00:12:39,140
Had lost ever in soccer, honestly
168
00:12:39,460 --> 00:12:42,740
And he didn't know what that feeling was. He didn't know how to
169
00:12:42,740 --> 00:12:45,940
Handle it. He just know he didn't like it and
170
00:12:47,060 --> 00:12:53,220
In life in life these failures these moments of our these low points in our life is our make or break points
171
00:12:53,780 --> 00:12:54,980
either
172
00:12:54,980 --> 00:12:56,980
Because one or two things are gonna happen either
173
00:12:57,300 --> 00:13:00,820
It's gonna break you and you're gonna go back to how you were before
174
00:13:01,300 --> 00:13:08,500
Becoming stagnant becoming stuck becoming afraid of the potential pain of of losing of failing of failing
175
00:13:08,500 --> 00:13:12,420
and not achieving your goals or
176
00:13:12,420 --> 00:13:18,660
It's gonna make you it's gonna make you okay reevaluate. Okay. Why why did this happen this time?
177
00:13:18,660 --> 00:13:24,660
You know really take what you can from from this failure because night honestly, it's not even really a failure
178
00:13:24,660 --> 00:13:26,100
It's a learning opportunity
179
00:13:26,100 --> 00:13:31,540
It's something you can learn from to do better the next time or you know, we're attempting to do better the next time, right?
180
00:13:31,540 --> 00:13:38,580
As long as you're not doing the same thing over and over and over again again the definition of insanity then each failure each
181
00:13:39,220 --> 00:13:42,980
loss each, you know obstacle is an opportunity to learn
182
00:13:43,300 --> 00:13:46,340
More a about yourself and then b. Okay. What is it?
183
00:13:46,340 --> 00:13:54,500
I can do different or what has this experience taught me that I can do something different to get further along on this journey of mine and
184
00:13:55,620 --> 00:13:58,020
For Nagi, well, he decided to do something different
185
00:13:58,020 --> 00:14:03,540
After that he decided to go play with isaki, you know, like it like a cover in the previous episode going over rayo
186
00:14:04,340 --> 00:14:06,340
He saw Nagi decided okay
187
00:14:06,340 --> 00:14:12,740
I'm gonna play with isagi now because he's the first person that I've lost to and I want to understand why I lost to him
188
00:14:12,740 --> 00:14:16,340
I want to understand what makes him tick. Well, how does he think and
189
00:14:17,060 --> 00:14:18,500
how can
190
00:14:18,500 --> 00:14:21,700
Basically, how can that help me improve my game and
191
00:14:21,700 --> 00:14:27,300
and I mean now you just followed his instincts at that point and ultimately it's kind of what it comes down to a lot of things
192
00:14:27,300 --> 00:14:31,860
It's not so much about you thinking or coming up with an awesome plan or something like that
193
00:14:31,860 --> 00:14:37,380
It's more so you following your your instinct your your gut feeling that you have for me because
194
00:14:37,860 --> 00:14:42,980
It's there for a reason guy gave us, you know, free will and he gave us, you know an ability
195
00:14:42,980 --> 00:14:46,340
That we don't really understand all the time and it's the holy spirit
196
00:14:46,340 --> 00:14:52,900
Speaking to us nine times out of ten, right unless it's you talking then you know, you might lead yourself astray, but
197
00:14:54,020 --> 00:14:57,220
It's it's that feeling of you when you when you just know
198
00:14:58,260 --> 00:15:01,140
Like I mean, it's hard to me. It's hard to put in the word
199
00:15:01,140 --> 00:15:04,260
But I mean if it's sure if it's happened to you you understand
200
00:15:04,260 --> 00:15:09,140
You don't understand what I'm talking about where it's just a feeling of knowing you just know this is the right move
201
00:15:09,140 --> 00:15:11,140
I need to make this is the right thing I need to do
202
00:15:11,140 --> 00:15:16,980
This or this isn't the right thing I need to do and I want to do this but for some reason I can't I don't
203
00:15:16,980 --> 00:15:22,900
Feel like this is it I feel like I need to do something else and that's I mean trust that feeling
204
00:15:22,900 --> 00:15:30,180
Because more often than not is right and it will lead you to a a place where all the miracles can happen
205
00:15:30,180 --> 00:15:32,180
All right, you can walk towards
206
00:15:32,500 --> 00:15:35,620
Walk towards your own miracles again back to creating your own future
207
00:15:35,620 --> 00:15:44,020
If you follow if you follow that feeling right the Holy Spirit speaking to you following that that gut instinct feeling
208
00:15:44,500 --> 00:15:50,900
Then you are walking toward the place where miracles can happen because one you're being obedient and two you're not
209
00:15:51,940 --> 00:15:53,940
You're not stuck. You're not
210
00:15:53,940 --> 00:16:00,100
You know, you're not afraid you're not so afraid of of the potential failure that you won't pursue
211
00:16:00,100 --> 00:16:06,500
the potential success and again all this is this comes through it comes down to how do you
212
00:16:07,380 --> 00:16:14,580
How do you handle those those moments of failure those moments of defeat or sorry not failure the moments of reflection, right?
213
00:16:14,580 --> 00:16:18,420
And potential of potential learning opportunities. How do you handle those?
214
00:16:19,060 --> 00:16:19,940
and
215
00:16:19,940 --> 00:16:22,660
Again for agi he chose to make it
216
00:16:23,380 --> 00:16:25,380
To make it a way of learning
217
00:16:25,380 --> 00:16:31,700
Again for agi he chose to make it to make it a a making point for him
218
00:16:31,700 --> 00:16:37,940
not a breaking point but a making point and in it it honestly awakened his hunger for victory he
219
00:16:38,820 --> 00:16:44,020
After losing to his agi the first time and decided to go play with him nagi became
220
00:16:44,900 --> 00:16:47,940
even more of an animal than he already was before and
221
00:16:49,060 --> 00:16:54,260
Really ignited that fire for him that he wants to win because before again nagi
222
00:16:54,260 --> 00:17:00,340
He's at least to me the very unique character within blue lock in general because he didn't he didn't join blue lock
223
00:17:00,420 --> 00:17:02,420
Because he wanted to be the best strike in the world
224
00:17:02,980 --> 00:17:08,740
He he joined because ray wanted to join and ray wants to win the world cup and nagi was like sure i'll help
225
00:17:09,300 --> 00:17:10,980
and
226
00:17:10,980 --> 00:17:15,300
Up until that point up until his first loss to his agi and then even the second selection and then
227
00:17:16,100 --> 00:17:18,100
further further on in the manga
228
00:17:18,100 --> 00:17:23,620
Nagi really was just playing just to play like he didn't he really didn't care that much
229
00:17:24,180 --> 00:17:25,700
He knew he was good
230
00:17:25,700 --> 00:17:32,420
And he just wanted to help ray out but he just really didn't care about winning per se because he he won all the time
231
00:17:32,900 --> 00:17:35,300
but after he lost to his agi and then
232
00:17:35,940 --> 00:17:40,820
and then even even after that after he joined his agi and then they lost to ren and
233
00:17:41,860 --> 00:17:43,860
Yeah, they're losing losing like that
234
00:17:43,860 --> 00:17:50,020
Yeah, now I guess I don't understand the frustration that feeling of frustration of losing of you know of that
235
00:17:50,580 --> 00:17:53,300
of that harsh learning opportunity and
236
00:17:54,180 --> 00:17:56,340
He realized he does something he doesn't want to feel
237
00:17:57,380 --> 00:17:59,780
Ever again, and he now he pushes him
238
00:18:00,420 --> 00:18:08,020
even harder to strive towards victory to strive towards improving himself and improving his stance within team and
239
00:18:08,020 --> 00:18:13,140
And I mean that's that's like really a key takeaway. I want all of us to take from it is that
240
00:18:14,100 --> 00:18:19,380
When life happens when life knocks us down when life gets in who gets in our way quote unquote or
241
00:18:19,940 --> 00:18:23,940
Typically is us getting in our way, but hey some things we again we can't control right?
242
00:18:24,740 --> 00:18:26,740
and when those things happen
243
00:18:27,380 --> 00:18:29,380
really need to take a step back and
244
00:18:30,020 --> 00:18:31,060
Like okay
245
00:18:31,060 --> 00:18:36,660
What can I learn from this and how can I use it to improve my my chances next time to get past this home?
246
00:18:36,660 --> 00:18:40,180
so that way this same wall isn't going to block me again and
247
00:18:41,380 --> 00:18:45,060
Again things for nagi. It was again going with his agi. It was
248
00:18:45,940 --> 00:18:52,020
Really starting to to think for himself out on the pitch that he started coming up with his own plays and how he can
249
00:18:52,340 --> 00:18:56,420
Use himself to better help the team and help his own chances of scoring
250
00:18:56,980 --> 00:19:03,780
Right in conjunction with his own natural gifts and natural talents of you know trapping the ball of his first touches and things like that
251
00:19:03,780 --> 00:19:07,060
it really just started to evolve that way and
252
00:19:08,340 --> 00:19:15,140
So again, what does that what does that mean for you? How do you handle setbacks? How do you handle learning opportunities? Do you?
253
00:19:16,260 --> 00:19:20,980
Just you know crumble under the pressure. Do you just go back to oh man?
254
00:19:20,980 --> 00:19:24,740
I knew I shouldn't have done this I knew I shouldn't have took that chance
255
00:19:24,740 --> 00:19:27,940
I knew I knew I should have you know what it should have could have or
256
00:19:28,580 --> 00:19:30,720
Do you look at as okay?
257
00:19:30,720 --> 00:19:33,320
Okay, so what I did this time didn't work
258
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:36,040
So let's let me try to figure out why that didn't work
259
00:19:36,040 --> 00:19:40,280
You know if there's anything I can learn from it if not, let me try something else instead over
260
00:19:40,280 --> 00:19:45,600
There's something I'm gonna learn from it. Okay, take that you see how gonna how I can apply in a different way
261
00:19:46,840 --> 00:19:52,920
Again all this stuff is easier said than done. I know trust me. I'm still working on each and every day. There's there are times
262
00:19:53,880 --> 00:19:57,440
even even now when I'm sitting here recording these episodes as well, I'm like
263
00:19:57,440 --> 00:20:04,440
Do I like why am I doing this? Why am I doing this? If anyone even gonna listen to it if anyone's even gonna you know
264
00:20:06,240 --> 00:20:08,240
resonate with it in any sort of way and
265
00:20:09,080 --> 00:20:11,240
and then they none of that matters because
266
00:20:12,440 --> 00:20:17,080
somebody out there is gonna is gonna hear this and they're gonna need this and that
267
00:20:17,400 --> 00:20:19,640
enough then that alone is enough for me to
268
00:20:20,200 --> 00:20:23,980
Sit down and get past my own fears and insecurities about you know
269
00:20:23,980 --> 00:20:27,060
I'm recording hearing my own voice and you know
270
00:20:27,060 --> 00:20:32,900
just all the the weirdness that comes with it comes with doing something new with doing something that you've never done before and
271
00:20:33,220 --> 00:20:38,540
Just pushing through it because I know on the other side. There's there's someone else besides me
272
00:20:38,540 --> 00:20:41,460
there's more to it than just me and my feelings about it and
273
00:20:42,020 --> 00:20:47,260
I just really say that to encourage you guys to whatever it is that you're trying to do
274
00:20:47,260 --> 00:20:49,020
Whatever it is that you're trying to pursue
275
00:20:49,020 --> 00:20:53,220
Just go ahead and do it go ahead and do it because again, you don't know what's gonna happen
276
00:20:53,220 --> 00:21:00,220
You don't know how it might change and transform someone else's life and drastically improve theirs and and yours
277
00:21:00,220 --> 00:21:03,940
I mean you might discover something new about yourself that you didn't know before that
278
00:21:04,460 --> 00:21:05,860
What's in you this whole time?
279
00:21:05,860 --> 00:21:11,260
But if you're just too afraid of the pain of the potential pain of failing then you would never have known
280
00:21:11,780 --> 00:21:17,320
And so I do encourage all of us to you know, live a little more don't just exist in life
281
00:21:17,320 --> 00:21:19,520
Let's let's actually get out there and live it
282
00:21:19,520 --> 00:21:23,880
