Eeyore

I'll turn that off now so you won't be hearing doodaloo, doodaloo anymore.

Eeyore, eeyore.

How are you, Nickers? I'm OK.

I'm gearing myself up to call my television provider, my sort of once every two years phone call where I threaten to leave and they back down on the massive price increase that they are threatening me with.

I was going to say, the more you're talking, and also, crucially, the levels of energy and enthusiasm.

Tim and I have enthusiasm, but you're sort of making us look like Eeyore compared to your Tigger, right?

That is the biggest compliment.

Thank you so

Stay away from me.

If you're an Eeyore, go work at Disney because I can't be a cheerleader 24-7.

I 100% agree with you.

And I think it's the coping mechanisms, though, when you do have a person like that, that you can't just put Eeyore at Disney, like the coping mechanisms you develop and not to let that person impact you or the way you respond.

When we talked about, you know, like emotional control several episodes ago of how do you monitor yourself so that you're not just matching that person's energy.

You don't just become that negative Nancy.

superpower or your biggest tool for this is that setting.

So if you guys are working a MacBook, there's a keyboard button for it to turn off the sound on your computer.

The Lakers are 3-0.

I define myself as an Eeyore.

Oh.

The Lakers are 3-0.

They're at home versus the Blazers tomorrow night.

I bet you Eeyore was sterile.

Oh, no question.

The Lakers are white, and they're fun, and they're back at it on Wednesday night.

Anything that could change in my life, it'll probably be worse.

Sort of the Eeyore attitude to life from Winnie the Pooh is anything new is going to be bad.

So if I take that new job, it's going to be bad.

If I move to that new city, a new country, it'll be worse.

I mean, it's good news for Mark Carney, probably.

I mean, he had a good relationship with David Eby, as good as anyone could have with David Eby, who was a bit of an Eeyore, frankly.

But I think that it'll be good for the major projects, the pipeline and so on, the Pacific pipeline.

I think, though, there are some cautionary tales or lessons, rather, not cautionary tales, lessons, useful lessons for the federal conservatives.

We felt like the debt represented just kind of this anchor on our spiritual journeys, this belief that things aren't going to work out or we won't have the resources or we won't have the people.

We talk about in the leadership, we talk about this spirit of Eeyore is how we talk about it.

And again, I have to explain because somebody from our church told me that it took them a long time.

They were flipping through their Bible looking for Eeyore.

They're like, what is Eeyore? No, it's not Bible, just Winnie the Pooh.

You need to flip through the 100-acre wood to find Eeyore.

But just this idea of lost my tail again, another rainy day, it's not going to work out.

And we feel like through this journey and through freedom from debt, God might allow us to learn how to hope again, to believe that God is not done with us, to believe that great things are coming for this community of believers.
