Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already, indeed enough. JC will teach the 4 tenets of enoughness and provide ways to apply them to your life.
JC Lippold: Happy Saturday. On Saturdays, it's self care Saturday, personal development Saturday. We talk about your ability to acknowledge you. How are you? JC asks. We spend some time thinking about us.
We're going to do a walkthrough on the four tenets of enoughness over the next four weeks. Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already, indeed enough. It's not a do everything right type of practice or ideology. Being aware of what we're talking about brings you to a place where enoughness can become reality.
Garrett: Your words are enough. What we place in the word has value. Minimizing language is a buzzkill for people who need the impact of what you have. What people need from you is your excitement about what you're thinking and feeling.
Hey there, Cadre. Happy Saturday. If it's not a happy Saturday, that's okay, too. My name is JC Lippold, and I really love that I get to do this, to spend time with you. It's a little bit before top of the hour, so I will give it a moment knowing that some people are. Are right on the button or right on the money and some of you aren't. Some of you are walking to the, walk into the room early and chat. So here at Cadre, we're creating space for all of that. It's officially top of the hour. I just got the notification that it's time to go live.
I see Joe Bajoy. I see Anila, I see people going like, bom, bom, bom. Here I am, ready to rock and roll, and all of a sudden, we do it again. Hey, Jules. Hey, mile high. Oh, Joe Bajoy. There's that exclamation point. How are you all? How are you? I hope. I hope you are in a place where you can answer the question, how are you? And know that that is currently enough. On Saturdays, it's self care Saturday, it's personal development Saturday. So we talk about your ability to, to work on, to work on you, to acknowledge you.
And Saturdays and Sundays are kind of for a lot of people, those days that fall out of the work world and into the me world. So what do we do with that? Well, we spend some time thinking about us. Oh, it's nice to hear how you all are doing and where you are. A coaching conference today, Joe Pajoy. Which coaching conference? Joe Pajoy? I will be. I'm doing two different coach certifications right now. AOEC will be bringing me to London this summer, and then I'm also in co active institute training over the next couple of months.
Oh, speak. Wonder this jazzy spiked hair. This is also waking up, not being able to wake up very well lately and getting a brush through my hair. Cause I know I'm gonna have to go see all my Cadre friends. Isn't it like, we're just kind of doing like a little coffee talk right now? Like, there should be like a table of donuts, like, right here on the Cadre screen. A little jug of coffee over here. Well, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. Let's go ahead and talk about what we're going to talk about today. I promised last week that we're going to do a little walkthrough on the four tenets of enoughness over the next four weeks.
I like doing this a few times a year. So if you're like, what is this enoughness thing that I just clicked into? Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already, indeed enough. What does that mean? It doesn't mean complacency. It doesn't mean don't grow, don't change. Don't have hopes or worries or fears or concerns or desires. It doesn't mean that. What it means is right now you are capable of doing something that innately has some worth. We are not led to believe that that is true.
We are led to believe that if we do these three things, then we will be enough, and then we can accomplish something. Enoughness says right now there is something you can do that has great value, great worth born of who you are in this moment that can literally change your world. Four tenets. First one is your words are enough. I'll give you an overcap of the form. Second one is your feelings are enough. Third one is your thoughts are enough. Last one is you are enough. But today, we're going to talk about your words are enough.
It's all about honesty. It's all about listening to what you say and seeing if you are actually on your side or not. Now, enoughness is not a do everything right type of practice or ideology. It's a calibration. So as we talk about this today, you may go, it's like, yeah, but there's times that I need to boom, boom, boom. Absolutely. Being aware of what we're talking about brings you to a place where enoughness can become reality. But before we start talking about it, I need to remind you, or if you've never heard this before, I'm glad to say it to you for the first time.
Enoughness very rarely feels like it. I'll say it again. Enoughness very rarely feels like it. In other words, you'll get to a place where you're like, ah, I'm enough right now. And you'll go, hmm, womp, womp. No party, no confetti, no big bands. You'll be like, wow, the world really doesn't set me up to exist sustainably in a state of enoughness. The world wants me to always be thinking I'm not good enough, or enough isn't enough, and I need to do more. So you are the one who has to go now. You know what?
Right now, enough is enough. Really? No, enough is enough. Okay, so let's talk about this first tenet. Your words are enough. You know, I sit in rooms of people as a consultant, as a coach, and so often you know, I stop listening to, like, the context of what people are saying, and I start listening to the content. I start listening to simply the words, because words have no power outside of what we place in them. Words are vessels. What we place in the word has value. Think about that. We could use the word happy.
But if happy means something different to everybody in that room, unless we define what we mean by happy, we're not actually communicating to others. We're not actually saying, here is what I have, and I'm going to give it to others. So our honesty, our clarity, has great value. The overhead, the overview, the cliff note version of your words are enough. Comes down to that. What do you place in the vessel of your words to communicate from your heart, from your brain, from your thought, from your experience, the clarity and the gift that you have that you are wanting to give to others.
So, like I mentioned, I often listen to what is being said, and so often I hear minimizing language. I hear the onlys and the justs and the apologies. I'm only saying this because I may be the only one, but, you know, it's all you have to do is. All you have to do is just jump over the mountain. All you have to do is just do these three things. The justs in the onlys and the apologetic language. We're attempting to soften. We're attempting to humanize and contextualize that what we are saying is very much coming from us.
You know, it may just be my opinion, but if someone's asking you something, the assumption is that what they want to hear is what you have. Minimizing language is a buzzkill. Speak wonder for two things. Number one, it's a buzzkill for people who need the impact of what you have. But number two, it's a buzzkill on your spirit. And I don't mean spirit in a fluffy way, but if you go, you know what? I may be the only one, but I bet you're pretty excited about what you think and what you feel. So what if the thing that other people need from you is not what you're saying, but the energy you have behind saying it?
What if what people need from you is your excitement about what you're thinking and feeling, as opposed to the thing in itself? Let's say you are going to. I'm heading to Eau Claire, Wisconsin, in a couple of hours to volunteer at Eau Claire Marathon. There are going to be people who do the five k or the ten k. There are going to be people who walk. There are going to be people who are slow. There are going to be people who go very, very, very fast, but they won't hit their goal. And they're like, well, it wasn't my day.
But in reality, what people need from them, what people need from you is for you to go. Here is the clarity. Here is the excitement. Here is the life that I have. How are you buzzkilling yourself to use speak wonder's moment here of thought, because you are just as important in this live stream as my voice is. What if people need from you your excitement, your clarity, your perspective? And anytime you only or just or apologetically wrap your clarity that you are taking that away from them. Here's the headline.
Enoughness tenet number one. Your words are enough. Say what you mean to say. Speak your truth quickly. Feedback is the way that we say, I see you, I love you. I'm invested in you inviting people into your clarity and going, that person's giving me what they have and they are empowering me to give exactly that same thing. Back in the headline for the next four weeks. Enoughness very rarely feels like it. You will live in a state of enoughness and you'll go, huh, this doesn't feel super great. We live in a world where enoughness is not what is expected of us yet.
I'll bet you a nickel that the brightest path that is available to you is to realize that right now you are already indeed enough. I think I may be the only live stream today. Normally you get to see Garrett a little bit later. Sports psychology superstar, wonderful human. You're going to see a couple new faces jumping onto Saturdays. But hey, tomorrow is self care Sunday and self care Sunday you have a big, big lineup of people. m. Central standard time. It's going to be a rainy, windy day, so get ready to see the JC weather report.
But we'll be talking about the thin space. Keep tapping in. You saw Anila sign on earlier today. Check out Anila on Wednesdays. Honestly, it's changed my Wednesdays the last couple weeks that Anila's joined in. Speak wonder. I'm going to be reaching out to you soon, y'all. You're going to be seeing speak wonder right here on the Cadre sphere, everybody. Thank you for doing what you do. You are already indeed enough peace.
