How To Win Everyday

Hey, Nick Hanson from Cadre. How you doing today? Thank you for joining me. Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to listen to these words that I hope will help. It said, aspire to inspire and good things will happen. I don't think that's quite how it goes, but anyways, thank you for joining. And I wanted to talk a little bit today about the win win theory. And there's so many different ways of looking at this. It's tied into Buddhism. It's tied into the, you know, you never fail.

You just learn, you know, kind of thing. But I wanted to dig in a little bit to the win win philosophy. Sometimes I get going in, like, everything's going really well, or a lot of good things are happening, and I start to get in this mind, frame of mind, like, I need to keep doing everything exactly right, or, you know, I don't know if it's. The wheels will fall off or if, you know, I make a wrong move, then I won't fulfill my destiny, whatever it is. That kind of thinking is not, ultimately, I don't think, very beneficial.

And the actual reality in my life is that there is, no matter what I do, there's a lot of grace and a lot of room for air, you know, and that we don't need to tread so carefully. And, you know, looking at the win win as well, it's like, so many times, it's like, should I do this or should I do that? You know, who am I? What am I supposed to be doing? What if I make the wrong choice? And the win win theory says whichever way you go, you know, you can find the win on that path. Right? And so it really takes a lot of the pressure off of making decisions, because no matter what you do, you know, you can win, because if you're.

If you're, you know, attempting to live with honesty and authenticity and, you know, trying to do the right thing, or maybe even if you're not, you know, maybe if you're, you know, at a point where I've been, you know, before, especially when I was, you know, drinking and using, like, where you just started thinking about those things and you just kind of pinging from here to there, even that, you know, can eventually take you to a win. So I think that takes some of the pressure off, and I think oftentimes about trying to live from the open heart as well.

And it's a practice because I forget all the time and then get stuck in the mind, and it's buckets of lost time. You know. And so then I bring it back to the heart and the wind in the win win sense. With that, if you're following your heart, you can't lose. You know, it's, it's impossible because you're always just living from right here on a moment to moment basis. And what a, what a beautiful thing that is when I can remember that. So a couple thoughts for you here this morning. Hope you enjoyed, and talk to you later.
