Spend your time on the things you can control. Find ways to be creative and control the environment around you. Use the things that are available, the things that are not available. Find a way to get those things that you need. Use what you have to get what you need and focus there. Stay on your 30-meter targets. This stuff that is so far extrapolated really doesn't mean anything right now. You're focusing on something that's 5,000 meters away. Meanwhile, the things that are 30 meters away are about to take you over. You're ignoring them. And it's actually empowering to take action towards a physical thing. There's, you know, ministry school and growing up in church, there's this phrase of somebody can be so heavenly minded to know earthly good. You know, and it's like, man, you can spend all day long on being a theologian, but are you nice to your spouse? You know, do you actually go out of your way to help somebody out? She's me carrying 10 boxes. Do you grab one? Do you get the door for people? Are you nice? Are you patient? You know, like things in the actual real world around you, are you impacting those? And that's drawn people's attention away. For one, it's hard to hit a 5,000-meter target, and it's not going to hit you. And we didn't get here because of something, you know, one big event. It was death by 1,000 cuts. That's right. And it's going to be a victory by 1,000 30-meter victories. Yes. I think that's really huge to say because some people are just waking up now, or they've just... been waking up over the last couple of years and they're like, oh my gosh, we're out of time. We gotta, we gotta, it's almost like somebody like in football instead of getting the first down, first down, first down. We need a 30 point play. Exactly, exactly. You know, versus, hey, let's just take these small steps and everybody's taking small steps to help to save our country. We need to work in mass and frequency, mass and frequency, hitting 30 meter targets. This is the game. This is how we win. And the other thing about winning, people think that, oh, the next election, we just get this, we win. It doesn't work that way. Americans traditionally think in the context of movies. Everything is over 120 minutes and it's that way forever because that's the end of the film. No, there's sequels. There are sequels upon sequels upon sequels. Whatever you do, there will be a counter move. Whatever counter move they do, there will be a counter move that you move. This goes on and on and on. To win means you fight. If you get to the last day of your life and you take your last breath and you have fought every second up until then, then you can call yourself a winner. Mm-hmm. And constantly having to be brave and courageous. You know, that's what we're called to do. Build that muscle. Yep. Okay, before we let you go, though. Well, speaking of brave and courageous, too, I want to... Hit the flimmovie.com. No, no. I want to talk about something else before we let you go. Before we let you go, we have to talk about. We have to duct tape him to this chair. Yeah. We have to talk about tech, discipline, and hygiene. Okay, yes. Because this was so impactful for me. And I think that this will be impactful for the Flyover family as well. It hit us like that. It hit us, yeah. If this was in the 80s and you were a kid who was lucky enough to have an Atari game system. Yeah. You didn't get to take it to school. No. You didn't put it in your backpack and go everywhere with it and pull it up. You could play Atari when your homework was done, when your chores were checked, and then you have earned it. Yeah, exactly. Nowadays, there is this tech addiction by parents. And because the parents are addicted to tech, as soon as a kid can get an iPad, they throw an iPad in front of a kid to keep them occupied so they can play on their tech. Yeah. Okay, that's like a crackhead giving their kid crack so they can do crack. There's no difference. So when we talk about tech discipline and tech hygiene, tech hygiene is making sure you're consuming the information online that is good for you, that is positive. You're not just falling prey to propaganda and you're causing yourself stress and anxiety.
