| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Morning Mindset Edition of the Live Build Change Podcast. |
| 0:07.0 | I haven't said it for a while so I'll just say it real quickly and we'll move on. |
| 0:10.0 | You can find out more about live build change and what I am doing to encourage and help |
| 0:17.8 | Christians live their faith in a vibrant way, build a business according to biblical principles and with the integration of their faith to change the world. |
| 0:28.0 | That's what Libill change is all about. |
| 0:31.0 | But I wanted to revisit something I mentioned yesterday because it's just heavy on my heart for some |
| 0:35.8 | reason. And that is the issue of how we get our mindset in kind of a pessimistic mode sometimes based on past experiences. |
| 0:49.0 | And the thing that's on my heart in particular has to do with the realm of marriage or the realm of family life. |
| 0:57.2 | See my wife and I have done a tremendous amount of marital counseling in the past with couples. And it's a pattern that I've seen |

| 1:59.0 | it well, and so it keeps piling up, and that lump under the rug keeps getting bigger and bigger until finally years down the road. |
| 2:06.6 | You're living together still, but you're just roommates and you're walking around this stinky massive lump under the rug |
| 2:18.8 | That's right in the middle of your home. It's right in the middle of your relationship |
| 2:24.2 | And neither of you really knows what to do about it. |
