E260 Your Test Is Your Testimony

This is fifteen minutes of freedom. I'm your host Ryan. I know today's episode is your test is your testimony. Today's episode. I wanna share with you a lesson. They came to me from one of my clients and how quickly it can impact the next season of your life. So I'm incredibly fortunate. I spend. Multiple hours every week learning. Think about that. How many hours a week? Do you actually spend learning? Maybe through podcast, maybe it's through books, or maybe it's because you're open to life's experiences as you go through your day and you receive the lessons that appear. Either way how many hours do you actually spend minutes? Maybe it's seconds learning each week. I to be really fortunate by the fact of having thirty plus one on one phone calls. With various clients right with various people are looking for an optimized experience in life. I get to learn something on every phone call. I got a message reinforced I get a new way to handle situations. I get all these incredible insights that just compound themselves dafter day. And one of those lessons came today. Speaking with one of my clients that has made leaps and bounds and transformation in his life sky in the west coast is a father. He's a ex husband. He's a businessman. He's got a lot of things. I believe that he is very successful. But success to me is not tied just money. It's tied to how much he cares about his kids, and how focuses on being a father. Beside how he takes care of his body and what he puts in it. And what he doesn't put in it. It's side of the relationships that he has with his parents and the people around him, and then it's also tied to seeing him. Excel and climb the ladder inside the corporation. These a part of. And I see all this. But this week he struggling we all struggle. Any person that tells you that there are not struggling haven't had a bad day or haven't had a bad week? I believe either not tapped in true to their emotions or is just a unicorn Rex I'll go weeks without having quote, unquote, bad day. But there are moments of frustration pain tiredness misery that pop up from time to time any day. It's the awareness that they happen. And then the shift moved that we I personally go through to recalibrate myself to realize that those moments are present, and that I see them and that I feel them not I'm okay with them. Then kind of lose power right away. Propably this conversation and he's sharing with me the struggles he's got. And they happen to be with his ex right Amon, think your life. I know my life my exes. I don't see much of a need to communicate with him. But I would still venture to say that if I saw them they would throw hoffy at me. Pour water on my head turn the other way. Like, my my life is a pretty speckled. Mess. I've tested myself in a lot of different capacities. When it comes to relationships. And he sharing with me this client. What he's going through hell keep that private for him. And I. But as we work through it, and we re frame it. We find say what's true. And how he feels about what's true. And then what he wants to focus energy on the plan to go a chief that. It keeps coming to me. Right. I'm open to receive from the university from my client or from a higher power, whatever you wanna say. It's like many yet got a lean into him express. Like, I know he still holding onto things they're still old resentment there still old stories. They're still pieces and parts that haven't been shared outwardly that he's bottled up in Turnley. I know that's not a specific situation. That is only valid for him. Most of us have pieces and parts of our lives that we are not proud of that we wish we would have done differently. Maybe we didn't on our auto ourselves or honor those around us, and we keep them in. And I'm convinced of. One thing above all else. We all feel right? There's there's feelings that happen. Whether we want to admit it or not whether we own them or not there's a triggering event that feels like it happens in our head of like mad. I'm angry. I'm upset. I'm sad. I'm embarrassed there. Something. And we have two choices at that moment to do something about what comes into our head. We can have it's going to go down in like it's going to pass our mouths and go north stomach or it's gonna come out of our mouth. The majority of us have been taught to not have come out of our mouths. Right. We don't know how to find the power purpose and production. In those words. We just swallow them down. Overtime enough of those situation. Get swallowed that they almost boil up. You almost have to like word vomit them out. And that typically comes when you're drunk when you're under the influence of alcohol when you're super mad at somebody. Write these things come out. Really become overwhelming. It's on poking at him. And I'm asking him questions and wonder saying how much of what went on in your relationship with now your ex does she really know about how much have you owned? How much is there left to be said? And we uncover a lot we uncover lot that he's never let go of. And as a man, I believe you women are incredibly in tuned to when we have shared our test. Or when we've hidden it from you. And so I encourage him I go through a conversation that I've had with my mother and my father different times. Like, they created the best life for me that they knew how. And they painted my life from their perspective of reality. It's not that they were bad people miss out. They were good people. We're all just people human beings. But for most of us we've been passed down stories boys of operating ways of thinking. And so they did what they could do for me. And in that they also did what they could do to me. And so there came a point in life where I had to sit down with both of them and release the things that I felt about both of them. Now, this mean attack? I didn't sit across him in yellow them. I didn't. Barade- them. It's I had these stories that were locked in my soul. I'll call it. My stomach that I had to sit across from them looked him in the eye and say, this is how I feel about these things. And I'm tired of feeling this way. So I have to release them. And when I was able to do that and muster up, the courage. My relationship got better with both of my parents. Right because I wasn't doing it. Because I wanted them to say sorry it had nothing to do with. Sorry. I did not want an explanation. I wasn't seeking some sort of money. It was I was saying it because I was tired of having them have control over the way. I was operating. And what I shared outwardly to both of them. How I felt about different parts and pieces of life. And the way that I felt was not positive, right? It was there was a negative twins to these conversations. When I release all the negativity. Donna me in that moment. I almost instantly switch and had to give them. Thanks. I tell them I appreciate them. Because. I have a saying that you can't give someone credit for the shit. If you also don't give credit to them for the shine. And while I was very frustrated about the stories I had told myself about what had happened in my life. It were those same stories that created the man that I am today. And so I had to then in those same conversations share with them how thankful I was that those things had happened. And I sit across from them at a dining room table independently not together by the time, we leave the table, I feel lighter finally. I'm no longer holding onto twenty thirty fifty one hundred pounds of weight. It's just gone. And this is difficult, right? Especially as we say this to our parents, they gave life to us. We're supposed to honor and respect them. Why would encourage you to consider saying what has hurt you that you've been holding onto your entire life is the ultimate form of respect. Respecting yourself. First. It changing that hierarchy from God. Others you to you got others. And it's different when you're not doing it for a reason when you're not doing it to attack them when you're not doing it looking for an apology. Like, you just feel lighter? But those very sentences as I'm sharing them with my client. He says man, I'm just never thought of it that way. So what are you saying? I should do. Cement your test. The things you've been through. That's also your testimony. All the stories that we keep inside all the shortcomings all the decisions that we should not have made from a new vantage point, all the shortcomings all the frustration like with an it's all meant to be shared because we all think, we're alone, and we're all frayed of judgement, and ridicule and don't get me wrong. That comes. But it comes from the people that ultimately don't matter. Saying that the loudest booze come from the cheapest seats. And you don't get to rent space in my life. If you don't want to cheer me on. And I would encourage that for you as well. Just I encourage it for my client. There are stories that need to be shared because you don't deserve to hold onto the baggage anymore. You should only take the pieces and parts that serve you going forward and carrying around an extra hundred pounds of junk on your back every day of the stories, you feel ashamed of I must ask you is that really serving you. Is that making you a better version of yourself? I asked us impactful question my client. He said, certainly none. So what are you suggesting I do? We'll start with get really clear on right down. All the things that you haven't told people. I do that a timer to right. We want to make sure that there are emotions are able to be present and processed and not in control. We wanna make sure that we have the ability to control them. But then I would encourage you when the time is right and say the voice, God intuition higher power. Something will tell you. It's time. It's time to share these things. And when you actually take action on that. And you get out of your head. This is not a cerebral exercise. This is a heart based exercise. Don't you make that shift, and you say the tough thing? So the people that have hurt you. It's like your heart opens up. So you attracted different type of person. It's like you're on different wavelengths, vibration frequency or whatever you believe in. And recalibrate it. Right. I share with him that by me doing the very thing. I'm asking you to do instructing you to do. It has led me to this moment with you right now had answer to this podcast, two hundred forty some odd days ago and share the meaningful things, and maybe not so meaningful things that went wrong and went right in my life, really shared my testimony. Her shared my test. I wouldn't be half as successful. I am today. I wouldn't be increasing people's capacity to live a life. That's beyond their wildest imagination. I would still be locked up in the prisoner. My own thoughts. That's not a very fun place to reside. Does really no reason for it. Other than the story that you're telling yourself. Once when you tell yourself the story, it's like you have blinders on, and you have your plugs in and you can find in the stories of your own head. Bonier you're finding those stories. Of course, you feel scared because you can't outside perspective. And though sounds and visual representations in your mind are always far worse than the actual outcome. That's what paralyzes you from taking the steps forward to release yourself. Because I truly don't believe were meant to be in purgatory here. And there's a certain part by not releasing these old stories and old energy that you hold onto that just is crippling your growth. I can guarantee it because I get to see it thirty times a week. And although it's scary difficult. These are the things that create the next level will wear nece for you, just like you said, it's creating the next level of awareness for my client. From this next level of weirdness. He's able to play the game of life in an a different field. Right. He seeing a different perspective. And this eventually bounces in the fact that I truly believe. Sure, we've done things to harm other people maybe not intentionally but there's things that have caused emotional trauma distress rather people. And certainly they deserve to express themselves and feel negative emotions that they felt from that situation. But majority of arguments discussions hurt feelings. Those come from something that is deeply rooted in the individual that saying to you. They saw perceptive reality. That was created by their parents, or they went through their own life's issues and traumas and dramas and never figured a way to healthy Lee process. Those process those emotions. They just swallow him. Right. Because that's what we're told to do. So the little thing becomes a big the tack that they put forth on you is it really the attack on new kind of the attack on the part of them. That's dead. That part of them. That's dead. Then even know why? Instead because having considered that it is and so they outwardly blame everyone else for the issue. It's a really crazy thing to think about as you're sitting there in an argument or discussion like what is the role that I played in this versus what is the role that has been created prior to me being present. Suppose that's all to topic for another day is divergent upon the whole fact of just your test being your testimony, and how much I encourage you to share. The stuff share the stuff that makes you vulnerable share the year afraid of. Share the stuff that you think people are going to judge you for. Because what I found by having this show and by sharing the ugly. Riley, lying and cheating and failed businesses and anabolic steroid use and these things that I share sure that has repelled people. They have walked out of my life. But has also drawn a tribe of people together that thought they were alone that relies they no longer are. You have a tribe of people that are looking for the same thing from you. You just don't know who they are. And you never willing to share it. But when you share your test as your testimony. You find out that every day the Rafter you're able to get shit done.
