00:00:09 Kevin
Good morning, gang. It's Kevin. And would you that really big bird chirping outside? Yeah, I call that a trash truck. So it's Monday.
00:00:20 Kevin
And with Monday comes the call. The trash truck. Right? So we are. It's time to get back to work. It's time to get your **** together. It's time to be like.
00:00:29 Kevin
And for those of you on audio, I just smacked the crap out of my face just to wake your *** up. Let's get out there. Like there's no reason to have the Monday morning Blues, and that's what you're here for. You're here for getting that morning. Pick me up on a Monday morning with Kevin, and this is motivational Monday.
00:00:48 Kevin
So.
00:00:48 Kevin
No.
00:00:49 Kevin
This week's topic is just when the week when the week and this in win the week we are going to set.
00:00:59 Kevin
We're gonna. We're gonna try to achieve some goals. OK, so now whether you have a list of goals, things you've been putting off, things that you have to get done for your own business, for yourself, at work for.
00:01:10 Kevin
Whatever it is you're looking for, I need you to win the week. I need you to take that goal. Make the list. Sit down before work. If it's a work goal, sit down at work.
00:01:22 Kevin
Sit down and write out this list of goals you need to complete. Maybe there's one each day, maybe there's maybe it's a it's a complicated government filing that you're doing and that it has to be done in stage as well. I have to do this. Then I have to wait 48 hours and I have to do this so I need you to go and do that.
00:01:40 Kevin
Do it. Do it. You won't do it.
00:01:43 Kevin
Because you probably won't. You haven't already. So, but I I'm not asking you to not do it. I'm asking you to do it.
00:01:52 Kevin
If you don't already have those goals, then I what I need you to do is just set some and I'm going to give you some clear examples of goals. Like maybe you're just like you know, I know I go to work, I take care of the stuff I have to do at work. There's no real major things that I have to do. Well, then you either need to find something on your own or you can borrow one of mine and these are not goals that I'm doing. But I'm just giving you examples.
00:02:12 Kevin
Me and Brock worked this morning and coming up with this week's theme right. And so in order to win the week, I want you to.
00:02:20 Kevin
Maybe set yourself a fitness goal 10,000 steps daily for five days this week. I'm giving you weekends. You have until next Monday.
00:02:29 Kevin
Maybe you're like.
00:02:29 Kevin
Screw you, Kevin. I'm doing 7 days. You know what? Well, I appreciate that enthusiasm. So productivity complete one.
00:02:37 Kevin
High priority task each morning before checking your e-mail. That's a good one.
00:02:46 Kevin
Learning spend 30 minutes daily learning a new skill like coating, cooking a new recipe, etcetera. That's a phenomenal one. If you make breakfast, breakfast is the most important meal of the day. I don't know who came up with that cereal companies back in the 60s, maybe.
00:03:02 Kevin
Uh.
00:03:06 Kevin
Wellness meditate for 10 minutes every day just to on in the evening, just to unwind.
00:03:12 Kevin
Organization Declutter 1 area of your home like a desk closet.
00:03:19 Kevin
By the weekend, so before this so your weekend is your little that's your little dopamine hit right there, folks. That's your that is your goal, right? Cause then you get to reward yourself with a weekend where you can just relax. Isn't that nice? Or you can do something that you wanted to do. Maybe. Maybe your relaxation is like hitting a bucket of balls out at the golf course or.
00:03:43 Kevin
Swinging a bat at the batting cages, man, they maybe that's what you want to do, right? Well, you can't do that if your house is a mess.
00:03:50 Kevin
God knows you can't do that if your house is a mess and and this is. This also leads us into a very good important topic, which is, you know, cleaning your room, making your bed it that one, that one sticks out to me. The organ is I love organization and and and you wouldn't know it by walking into my studio where you see like piles of paper but it's all organized.
00:04:10 Kevin
It is a giant working mess, but it's organized and I I spend time and time to try to refine it and reorganize it and then complete tasks. And that is very.
00:04:21 Kevin
And that is very important if you for your for just your mental health, because all the spaces that you occupy in the world is a direct reflection of your mind in order to clear your mind, you must clear the space around you.
00:04:38 Kevin
Why do you think the yogis sit down on a mat and they sit so far away and they have, you know, they give themselves plenty of space to kind of, whether it's a stretch out or it's to, you know, to get their arms nice and wide away from their their core, just to reach out wherever they can touch. And that's a good representation of.
00:04:58 Kevin
The world around you, so going moving from that one connection connection reach out to 1 friend or family member daily for a quick catch up.
00:05:08 Kevin
That's a good one. I like that. I like that. Thank you, grok for all these great ones. Finance, track all expenses for the week. Identify one area to cut back on. And actually we went into that this weekend with our guest and friend Kenny Polcari. He mentioned that with one of the things he was going to do today was he was.
00:05:28 Kevin
That day was he was gonna go through, and he makes it more like a quarterly process or a biannually.
00:05:37 Kevin
Semi annually process to go through and just like look at all of the reoccurring charges on his credit card, whether it's you know, Netflix, Disney plus, Walmart plus, Amazon Prime, just any of those like reoccurring expenses, they come either annually annually semi annually.
00:05:57 Kevin
You know, monthly, weekly, whatever it is. Why do you have it? Why is it there is? It is its benefit gone awry and there's another mental health release is just going through.
00:06:09 Kevin
Because before you know it, you got 10 things like Netflix at 25 bucks a month.
00:06:14 Kevin
That's $250 a month.
00:06:17 Kevin
What was the last time you watched HBO Max? You don't remember? Well, why are you paying for it? It's not like it's some kind of like.
00:06:24 Kevin
I'm not. I don't play this video game anymore, so I'm just gonna throw it away. It's no, but they're charging you to have that video game sitting on your shelf. See what I mean? And by getting rid of it, it doesn't delete your save file. For those of you who are not familiar with video games, when you're playing a game, you got those like spots where you've been playing the game, and this is your progress through the game. You're not deleting it.
00:06:44 Kevin
By getting rid of it, there's nothing that's going to disappear by your Netflix disappearing.
00:06:49 Kevin
You just don't have access to the movies from that point forward until you renew your Netflix subscription, so just throw it out there. Maybe there's something that you're paying for that you're just like, that's a good, that's a good one that's both a financial goal as well as it's part of that mental health release of trying to organize the world around you. And you've just kind of crammed all this crap in the back of your mind.
00:07:11 Kevin
Got it. And forget it. And that's what those companies were relying on when they set you up for auto pay, set it and forget it. Yeah, of course. Yes, we're going to. We're going to be that thing that cost you lots of money like a, except we're going to pretend.
00:07:24 Kevin
End that we are a prop in your like rear pantry. You know, like an old photo album that just sits back there, but for some reason it just costs you money every month. Well, they just took care of that. You're taking care of that with this week's weekly goals. We're going to win the week this this week, folks.
00:07:46 Kevin
So.
00:07:47 Kevin
With that said, I want you to get out there, kick some ****, take some names, make your list, pick your goal. Let's go get it. Let's we've got. We've got life by the throat.
