00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,300
Here is our main story on the Rated R Safety Show.

2
00:00:04,300 --> 00:00:06,340
Okay, so let's talk.

3
00:00:06,340 --> 00:00:07,540
Let's hang out.

4
00:00:07,540 --> 00:00:08,540
Let's see.

5
00:00:08,540 --> 00:00:11,420
We are 13 days into this new year.

6
00:00:11,420 --> 00:00:16,600
People are super excited about it being 2025 because I guess the 25 thing gets you excited

7
00:00:16,600 --> 00:00:21,700
because people start thinking that there were 25 or how excited it was when they were 25.

8
00:00:21,700 --> 00:00:22,700
One or the other.

9
00:00:22,700 --> 00:00:23,700
I don't know.

10
00:00:23,700 --> 00:00:24,700
It gets a little confusing to me.

11
00:00:24,700 --> 00:00:27,100
But hey, we still have to talk about stuff.

12
00:00:27,100 --> 00:00:29,940
We still have to talk about how things occur.

13
00:00:29,940 --> 00:00:31,960
How things happen and so on.

14
00:00:31,960 --> 00:00:37,320
So let's take a little bit of that excitement of 25 being out and let me talk real quick

15
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:40,560
just for a brief moment in time.

16
00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:43,260
A very small moment in time.

17
00:00:43,260 --> 00:00:45,520
And I want you to think about this.

18
00:00:45,520 --> 00:00:52,400
I want you to think about your organization or your personal life or anything in all where

19
00:00:52,400 --> 00:00:54,940
you have been successful at.

20
00:00:54,940 --> 00:01:00,900
And yeah, you can even go as down as far down as a sporting game that you might have played,

21
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:06,540
but something that you've been successful at doing.

22
00:01:06,540 --> 00:01:09,060
Is it coming to mind?

23
00:01:09,060 --> 00:01:14,760
Now I want you to think about that for just a brief moment and give it some serious intention.

24
00:01:14,760 --> 00:01:17,460
And I'm talking about the general feeling.

25
00:01:17,460 --> 00:01:23,260
I'm talking about how things worked for you, how things were fantastic, how things you

26
00:01:23,260 --> 00:01:26,740
went through where like, wow, this really changed something for me and the way that

27
00:01:26,740 --> 00:01:27,940
you were looking at it.

28
00:01:27,940 --> 00:01:32,620
But that emotion that was there, that is going to be one of those crucial parts of the whole

29
00:01:32,620 --> 00:01:34,240
thing.

30
00:01:34,240 --> 00:01:38,540
Now I want you to think about that for just a brief moment longer.

31
00:01:38,540 --> 00:01:43,260
Let's give it a few more seconds here.

32
00:01:43,260 --> 00:01:53,240
Now after you have that emotional event and you were successful at X, someone comes in

33
00:01:53,240 --> 00:02:00,660
to you and says, I got something to share with you.

34
00:02:00,660 --> 00:02:08,060
Maybe the way that you just did that was not the best.

35
00:02:08,060 --> 00:02:13,440
Yeah, one more time.

36
00:02:13,440 --> 00:02:22,060
The way that you did that might've not been the best.

37
00:02:22,060 --> 00:02:26,260
So how is that going to make you feel for a moment?

38
00:02:26,260 --> 00:02:29,740
You're going to have a lot of questions there on hold on, what do you mean it wasn't the

39
00:02:29,740 --> 00:02:30,740
best?

40
00:02:30,740 --> 00:02:34,700
I have this general emotion that comes out of this whole thing of everything that I was

41
00:02:34,700 --> 00:02:37,580
doing.

42
00:02:37,580 --> 00:02:43,020
So I am referencing this for the following reason.

43
00:02:43,020 --> 00:02:53,300
What happens from time to time is when you go in to an organization, when you have conversations

44
00:02:53,300 --> 00:03:00,340
with people, that is almost what is occurring when you're telling them, hey, you've been

45
00:03:00,340 --> 00:03:05,820
successful to this point, but I might have a better way.

46
00:03:05,820 --> 00:03:07,260
Think about that for a moment.

47
00:03:07,260 --> 00:03:12,700
Think about how close we are in regards of how we're having that conversation.

48
00:03:12,700 --> 00:03:15,900
Because what happens most of the time is that we don't realize it.

49
00:03:15,900 --> 00:03:23,060
We don't realize to an extent that we are, let's use some nice words, poo-pooing on some

50
00:03:23,060 --> 00:03:26,220
people's emotions, on some people's thoughts.

51
00:03:26,220 --> 00:03:32,500
And they believe that till that point they have been successful on something.

52
00:03:32,500 --> 00:03:42,380
Now if we took it and reversed it and said, hold on, we were terrible at X, we were terrible

53
00:03:42,380 --> 00:03:45,620
at this, and we were terrible at all these other things, and somebody said, hey, I got

54
00:03:45,620 --> 00:03:51,140
a better way of maybe on how you can do this, you might be more open to the idea of what

55
00:03:51,140 --> 00:03:53,100
I have to say.

56
00:03:53,100 --> 00:04:01,780
But if I was good and successful at something until that point, guess what's going to happen?

57
00:04:01,780 --> 00:04:08,640
You're going to have an uphill battle, as people like to say, in regards of covering

58
00:04:08,640 --> 00:04:10,860
something with someone.

59
00:04:10,860 --> 00:04:12,220
And I'm not picking here.

60
00:04:12,220 --> 00:04:14,460
I want you to think about it.

61
00:04:14,460 --> 00:04:18,100
I want you to think about how some of these things come across sometimes.

62
00:04:18,100 --> 00:04:24,140
So maybe we need to start taking a look at this stuff in regards on how we reconfigure,

63
00:04:24,140 --> 00:04:29,500
yes, reconfigure some of the aspects of what we do.

64
00:04:29,500 --> 00:04:32,580
So maybe that's what we need to start talking about.

65
00:04:32,580 --> 00:04:38,900
It's the mindset that we need to start changing on how we do the approach of what we talk

66
00:04:38,900 --> 00:04:39,900
about.

67
00:04:39,900 --> 00:04:46,620
And listen, at the end of the day, I would imagine that your goal and my goal is to get

68
00:04:46,620 --> 00:04:49,500
people home safely.

69
00:04:49,500 --> 00:04:52,020
So think about that today.

70
00:04:52,020 --> 00:05:01,080
And let's talk in the very near future on how we should go about reconfiguring our approach.

71
00:05:01,080 --> 00:05:02,080
Maybe that's something to think about.

72
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:03,080
Oops, what did he just say?

73
00:05:03,080 --> 00:05:08,620
We at Safety FM don't always agree with the viewpoints of our hosts and guests.

74
00:05:08,620 --> 00:05:12,020
Now back to real Safety Talk on Safety FM.
