Mark MinkusHOST

And I'm your host, Mark Menkes.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:31
So maybe you've been in a meeting where someone said, let's put a pin in it.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:37
Or they said, well, we need to circle back on that.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:39
Or we need to think outside the box.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:46
Or let's make sure everyone is on the same page.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:48
Or we need to touch base.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:50
So we have all these idioms, all of these little phrases and sayings that come up in meetings.
Mark MinkusHOST
0:57
And one of my personal favorites is, let's not leave any money on the table.
Jill AveyHOST
0:04
And it probably won't be a formal conversation.
Jill AveyHOST
0:06
It'll be in the last four minutes of a one-on-one or walking back from a meeting.
Jill AveyHOST
0:10
And they'll just say, so what do you want next? And most of us say some version of the same thing.
Jill AveyHOST
0:16
I want to keep growing.

Now, when we write your genius down, those 12 aspect of it.
Kan YueGUEST
8:04
How does it show up on a regular Thursday?
Jill AveyHOST
8:08
This is the stuff that you get to draw from because particularly like you talked about values and I did a whole episode of it just a couple of weeks ago for their easy one to pull from is when you understand what your values are, you're going to understand why when you're in a meeting, you get passionate about something or you get angry about something.
Jill AveyHOST
8:28
That's your values.
Lindsay EmersonHOST
10:49
Okay, parents, that wraps up today's episode.
Lindsay EmersonHOST
10:52
Here's your parting reminder to grab your free family meeting guide.

Emily Kircher-MorrisHOST
20:28
From my time when I worked in the schools, especially at the high school level, we begin to invite kids into the process to attend their IEP meetings, to attend their 504 meetings if they need some of those additional supports.
Emily Kircher-MorrisHOST
20:43
But a lot of times, that is at the very end of the meeting where they just kind of pop in for a few minutes, and that might be okay.
Emily Kircher-MorrisHOST
20:50
I mean, there's certain situations where it's probably okay for the adults to have some parts of the conversation that maybe aren't necessarily all of the details for, for those kids.
Emily Kircher-MorrisHOST
21:01
But now, in my counseling practice when we do assessments, we do our feedback session with the parents, but the kids aren't really part of that process right now, and I'm kind of rethinking that even as we're having this conversation.
Cassandra WorthyGUEST
19:22
... frustrated.
Cassandra WorthyGUEST
19:23
Every time I have a conversation, a meeting with them, I feel like punching a wall.
Cassandra WorthyGUEST
19:26
Why is that? And I love that you talk so often, or it sounds like this month it's about curiosity, because curiosity fuels that second step, the opportunity.
Cassandra WorthyGUEST
19:34
And then the final step is the choice.
Neil HarveyHOST
1:48
They've never done anything like this before, but they can't wait to attend next year because it was just such good fun.
Neil HarveyHOST
1:54
And for me as a host to have fun loving people around me as my guests just reiterates the fun of being a host.
Neil HarveyHOST
2:01
And I say this because when I give my talk about being an Airbnb live-in host at property meetings around the country, the number one objection, and I know I've said this before, is, I couldn't do what you're doing because I couldn't have strangers in my home.
Neil HarveyHOST
2:14
When someone says that to me, my instinctive response is to say, well, a stranger is just a friend you haven't made yet.
Neil HarveyHOST
2:21
But I try not to say that because it sounds too much like a soundbite.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:22
And they were run by inventors or people that wanted to help the inventor community.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:25
Now, showing up to the meeting were patent attorneys and others.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:28
take advantage of the industry and meet folks.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:30
So it was an interesting thing, but it was a lot of older white guys.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:44
But I was, I was impressed by the stuff that was getting shared and as a believer.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:50
And then I, I learned when I started going to this, that there's this, broader national organization called the United Inventors Association.
Warren TuttleGUEST
43:57
So I, I ended up meeting the person that ran it.
Warren TuttleGUEST
44:01
And I ended up going, getting on a couple of calls and they asked me to come on their board.
JasonHOST
5:22
We share what we know, how we got here, and how the SAA program has worked for us.
JasonHOST
5:28
Many of the meetings that I go to has a reading called the opening or sometimes called the program.
JasonHOST
5:34
And in it, it says our primary purpose is to stop our addictive sexual behavior and to help others recover from sexual addiction.
JasonHOST
5:43
And this really covers step 12 and tradition five, which is each group has but one primary purpose to carry its message to the sex addict who still suffers.
JasonHOST
6:21
Skipping down on page 85.
JasonHOST
6:24
This principle of service applies at every level of our experience in SAA.
JasonHOST
6:29
We find that we attend meetings not just to receive support and wisdom from others, nor do we only talk about our problems.
JasonHOST
6:37
Instead, we learn to be mindful of carrying the message of recovery at our meetings.

今天跟大家分享学习人生的云淡风轻这本书。弘一大师他在没出家之前叫做李叔同先生,年轻的时候简直就是一个才子,因为他样样都精通,音乐、art、戏剧、诗词歌赋,样样都行,还是一个非常之有钱的人,生活可以说是超级繁华。但是当他去到人生某一个转角位的时候,他决定了出家,用他后半生的时间去实践一种非常之简单、朴素、心无杂念的生活。这件绝对不是一件容易的事啊,讲真啊,要由一个这么有钱,什么都有,还要自己这么能干的人哦,在繁华的世俗世界里面,进入一个清静的佛门地带,他的人生轨迹本身就是一种极大的智慧。但是弘一法师在这本书里面要传达的 message 不是要我们去逃避现实,不是说要你即刻去一些什么深山那里修行、修心,而是他想告诉我们知,就算在这个这么混乱、这么世俗的现实生活里面,我们都可以有方法学会怎么样去云淡风轻,怎么样去修自己的心。我们看看现在今时今日的现代生活是怎么样的,那些人为什么会活得这么累的,连小朋友成天都说好累、好辛苦啊。我们从小到大的教育就是要用力啊,读书要用力点,做事要用力点,维系关系要用力,连减肥做运动都要用力啊。为什么我们要这么用力?因为我们用力,我们就可以掌控那件事的结果。我们习惯了将掌控感当成是安全感的一种来源。如果那件事没有跟着我们 expect 的那个轨迹走的话,有时我们会觉得很不安、很焦虑,甚至乎很生气。小的时候有没有试过,你温书很用力去温,很用心的去温书,测验的时候,你以为自己全部答对,你 expect 这次测验拿满分,谁知派卷的时候见到九十分的,那一刻你当堂会觉得很失落。在公司也是,你可能是一个很有责任感的人,每一次上司给你东西做,你都想自己可以尽量做到完美,至少是尽善尽美那种吧。甚至你见到有个同事做错事,你会忍不住帮他收拾烂摊子,那一刻你会不会有一种自我感觉良好啊?觉得自己,嗯,我很 professional 啊。如果由心理学角度去看的话,这种过度的责任感叫做过度控制和讨好倾向。你做这么多这些的行为,是因为你怕被否定,因为你怕失去了控制,所以你选择将所有事背上身。弘一大师说过,人生之所以会烦恼,皆因执着而起,执于人,则受制于人,执于事,则受困于事。大家可以回想一下,最近一次你觉得很委屈、很生气是因为什么事?会不会因为有一个人的表现不符合你的 expectation 啊?譬如啦,你觉得作为一个同事,他应该要主动帮我忙;作为我的另一半,他应该要明白我的感受;作为我的亲朋好友,他应该要支持我的选择。这些所谓的应该,就是你为自己和其他人画的一个笼啊。当现实和你的应该出现了有个偏差的时候,痛苦就这么诞生了。有个很出名的心理学家卡尔永格 Carl Jung 曾经说过一个 concept 叫做心理投射。我们对外界的要求和所有不满,通常都是来自于我们自己内心未被满足的需求和恐惧的一些投射。你觉得别人对你的要求很苛刻,很多时就是因为你自己内心深处从来都不容许自己犯错。在生活上面,我们很容易会和其他人叠加在一起。是什么意思呢?在一间公司里面,有组织架构,有不同阶层的人啊。家里里面会有不同的长辈啊、小朋友,长幼秩序。在情感关系里面,我们会有占有欲。在这些不同的关系里面,无形之中会模糊了我们自己的一个独立个体的边界。譬如你帮同事分担了根本不属于你的工作,日子久了,对方觉得是理所当然,你心里面慢慢就会累积了一些怨气。你为了满足爸爸妈妈的期望,选择了一条你根本不喜欢走的路,结果你心里面就积压着不满、不开心。弘一大师分享过他自己出家之后的生活小细节。有一次他好朋友去探他,见到他在用一条又旧又烂的毛巾在抹面。他好朋友忍不住跟他说,这条毛巾烂了,你换过一条吧。弘一大师笑一笑,跟他说,还好吧,还可以用。在弘一大师眼中,一物有一物的宿命,一个人有一个人的因缘。条毛巾烂了,只要它还可以发挥到它的作用,就不用执着它是新还是旧了。[舒缓的音乐]人和人之间的关系,或者是那件事的发展,也都是一样的道理。有时我们觉得这么累,或者是觉得很精神内耗啊,通常都是因为我们分不清我的事、你的事和老天爷的事啊。我的事,譬如说自己的情绪、自己的选择、自己的态度,这些是自己可以控制到。人家的选择、人家的情绪、人家所有的评价,这些是别人的事,我控制不到的。老天爷的事,譬如说天气啊、经济大环境、生老病死、意外,这些是自然的规律,我们只要接受和顺应它就 OK 了。 但是很可惜,我们日常生活当中九十percent的痛苦都是来自于用我的事去操心,或者是强求别人的事,甚至乎是老天爷的事。例如你很比心机去温书,或者很比心机准备了份proposal,结果得不到理想的分数,或者是在meeting上面被老板啊一口否定你,可能你就会立刻将这件事转化对自己自身价值的一种否定。是不是我太差?是不是老板针对我?将人家的评价当成了自己的价值。又譬如了,在一段感情关系里面,你见到另一半今天心情很差,对你很冷淡啊,不瞅不睬这样的,你可能会立刻很害怕,不停地追问他,怎么样,你是不是我做错了一些什么让你心情不好啊?你会很想知道对方究竟什么事不开心,你很想去安抚对方的情绪,对方如果不想说,或者是不想同你讲的时候,你死逼都没有用啊,结果会怎么样啊?很多时候会适得其反,引发一场更加大的冲突。因为有时你忘记了对方的情绪,其实是他自己要处理的事情来的。如果你过度介入的话,反而是一种侵犯。弘一大师说,修心的第一步是要学懂退后一步,宽处行,宽恕的宽,处理的处,行动的行。退后一步,不是代表你认错啊,跪下,或者是你很懦弱了,不是。而是要在你自己的情绪和现实那件事之间拉开一段距离。当那件事发生了,那件事本身已经是一个客观的事实,是中立的,你要赋予给那件事什么情绪,什么意义,是来自于我们自己的认知。这个世界上有这么多的事每一天都在发生着,不是单靠我们一个人的意志就可以将它们改变,每一件事都有它自己很自身复杂的那一个因果关系啊。当我们明白了之后,我们才会有一种很豁然开朗的感觉,而这种感觉就是云淡风轻的起点。[翻页]为什么有时我们会过得那么痛苦?那根源是来自于我们对于外界,对于其他人的人、事、物那一个过度执着和控制欲。每个人心里面都有一把尺,我们习惯了用自己的标准去量度这个世界,结果反而会令到自己很痛苦,周身伤。有人会说,我明啊,Agnes,要放下完美和对控制欲的执着嘛。但是我明天回到公司,还要对着那个挑剔的老板和那个讨人厌的客啊,我怎样可以压制自己心里面那种愤怒啊?怎样可以做到心无挂碍啊?无论你今天面对着一个什么的烂摊子都好,试一下和自己讲一句啊,我已经做了我能力范围可以做的事了,其他的事就交给因缘啦。尽人事,听天命啦。有时你拿着拳头,那些沙反而会流走啊。当你肯去松开那只手,很多时原本缠着你的困局,通常都会不知不觉出现了个转机。如果你今天听完这一集觉得都有共鸣的话,不妨将它share给你身边那位常常都觉得很累啊,或者是很执着的朋友。我也很欢迎大家留言告诉我,你对生活上面的一些小顿悟。大家每次留给我的comment和DM我的message我都有看的,对于我来讲,这些全部都是很大的支持。如果Agnes的述说分享对于你来讲有启发的话,我非常地welcome你成为我寻宝宝的会员,和我一起去寻宝。相信我,在这个过程里面,你一定有东西可以拿得走。今天的分享来到这里,免费的观众,我们下个星期再见。寻宝宝们,我们星期三准时七点钟再见,拜拜。

And then you're going to protect that time.
Mark MinkusHOST
12:23
You're going to treat it like it's a meeting with your school's biggest donor or your school's most prickly parent or with your board chair or with, it's a doctor's appointment that, you know, if you reschedule, it's going to take seven months to get back on the schedule.
Mark MinkusHOST
12:41
You're going to treat it with that kind of respect.
Mark MinkusHOST
12:45
And even if, even if three out of five days you're successful, okay.

It's more like a giant countdown clock to going to bed and trying to fall asleep to get up and do this all over again.
Mark MinkusHOST
28:31
You know, maybe Sunday morning feels pretty good, but by Sunday afternoon, school starts creeping back into your mind.
Mark MinkusHOST
28:37
And by Sunday evening, you might as well be like sitting at your desk or sitting in your first meeting on Monday morning, right? I want you to think about this, and then I'll give you a strategy.
Mark MinkusHOST
28:52
Don't let Monday start on Sunday.
