All right welcome to episode 302. Hello my friend. Welcome to a fresh new episode of new mindset who this and today I'm talking about main character energy.

Yeah, it's here and it's a bit different like it's different from other energies I've talked about on the show before big dick energy, you know hot girl summer energy.

It's different, but it's a big vibe and I'm a big fan. I'm like a big fan of what it means of the mindset that's behind embracing being the main character in your life.

And I want to take a short episode and just talk a little bit about it here. So I'll just get right into it. I'll skip my usual request to share the podcast to visit newmites.cannyon.com.

You all do that so much. So thank you for that. But I'll get right into chatting about what I think main character energy is and how we can all improve our lives by embracing it.

And recently I've seen this phrase pop up a lot.

I saw it in a New York Times article that basically covered where it started which shocker is tiktok and then basically on you know five minutes of the thorough research it seems that you know main character energy simply means someone who likes to make themselves the center of attention.

Like a the main character or someone who is just extra or loud or whatever for no real reason, you know there the main character the center of attention.

And I saw a couple of these tiktoks and you know heard the cool kids reference it and I immediately started thinking about the power of having a main character energy mindset.

But like in my own way like I love hearing phrases, you know trends words, whatever and then I kind of define them myself. So I sat down this morning and thought about what is my version of main character energy and how might it be helpful for you.

And I really love this idea of main character energy, I love the idea of being really type a I love the idea of living life knowing that as the main character in it you get to decide who's part of your story and who's not.

I love the idea of knowing that you know heck yes now you're the shit the cameras are trained directly on you people would be lucky to be part of your story I love that I love the idea of you know dressing how you want acting how you want being over the top if you want to be I love that.

But most of all and here's where I really want to go in on this idea I love the true mindset behind this behind this energy and that's realizing that by embracing the fact that you get to write your story that there is so much more to life than being at the whim of other people of someone else's decisions of someone else you know how they might see you of hoping that someone else sees value in you.

And over thinking other people's opinions of you and finally controversial statement here and I'll back it up it's in seeing that there's so much more to life than sex and relationships there I said it I said it right there there's so much more to life than sex and relationships and I think embracing your main character energy is going to prove something about this to you that's really really powerful.

And you know I say this and I'm kind of laughing at saying something you know obnoxious like that because that sounds like something someone would say who's like just given up right on dating that sounds like someone who's like I forget it you know there's more to life there's more to life that's not where I'm coming from at all like I love sex I love relationships I think that they're so important in life they're purposeful they're fulfilling in major ways that you would never get on your own and that's great.

But they are frankly meaningless unless unless you are the main character in your life first unless you are writing your life's story first and I say all this and I'm kind of smiling as I say this but I say this as I'm hot off of watching the first four episodes of season two of too hot to handle on Netflix and I don't know if you've watched it yet or have any plans to I guess it depends on how many brain cells you want to see.

I know how many brain cells you want to give away in the process but I watch those episodes the other night and I know it's not real I know it's scripted but it's like damn damn to think that there are people out there who are so obsessed with sex and relationships and the validation and self worth that comes from them kind of makes me a little sad you know that there are some people out there who's soul definition of fulfillment of validation comes from the world.

So that's the validation comes from sex from relationships like that makes me kind of sad you know it doesn't make those people bad people at all it doesn't I just think it's so so so important to realize that there is more to life than that and I think main character energy is going to make you realize this and I think we can all benefit from it even if you're actively looking for a relationship even if you're at the stage in your life where it's like yes I want a relationship I still think this is such a major vibe that can be so important.

Because it's important to realize that with a main character energy mindset you can happily date hook up whatever but your life doesn't begin and end there your life is made better by the presence of someone else by the fun the dead entails and I think when you embrace your life's main character energy you realize that you are literally in charge of making that decision not just of the like actual
