Alright, welcome to episode 96 so we're gonna we're gonna go international for this episode kind of you'll you'll see why in a minute you might want to brush up on your Danish but I'm excited for this episode because I'm going to talk about how to deal with

The bullshit that life throws your way and I've done a couple episodes on this before I talked about why I think we shouldn't take things so seriously I've talked about why I think you should be able to just laugh I kind of just the randomness of life and those all definitely hold true but I have another mindset that I wanted to talk about that I've seen to be super effective in my life

It's one that allows me to kind of just roll with the punches to not get negative to not get down on myself to not play the victim in life and I think this is super important because I've learned that if you want to live a happy life a life where you're always growing and learning

you have to decide to do that you have to decide to do just that and this mindset will help you do that every single day so as always very excited to chat about this quick shout out to today's sponsor before I hop into it today's sponsor is bespoke post I've talked about these guys a lot it's for dudes it makes sense I'm a dude I like do things and bespoke post is a really cool brand I've been following them for a while they're basically on a mission to help you upgrade your style

logically challenged as she can be sometimes she she finds a way to send me a lot of emails and texts of things that she thinks I would just find interesting or that I need to know and I appreciate each and every one of them you know sometimes it'll be articles on why I need to wear ear plugs if I go out to a bar why my AirPods are killing me or areas to avoid in Chicago or we know why I need to wear SPF 70 year round but the other day she sent me an article that I

found really interesting and it gave me the idea for this episode and maybe you've seen this before I apparently it's been making the rounds on the internet but I hadn't seen it which is strange shocking I suppose since I've got my finger on the pulse of the self development space you know I'm that guy but it was an article titled angry worried stressed out just say this one word say this one word and it's a Danish word to my point in the intro and it's spelled

PYT and apparently it's like PUT or something close to that I'll just say PIT for this episode but know that I recognize my pronunciation is probably a bit off but anyway it's a Danish word and it doesn't really have an English definition you can't really translate it and according to the article this word is usually expressed as a reaction to daily hassles daily frustrations daily mistakes

and it most closely translates to English saying don't worry about it or oh well or you know shit happens and the article talks about how at its core this word is about accepting and resetting it's a reminder to kind of just focusing on not overreacting instead of assigning blame it's kind of a way to just let go and move on and that kind of frame of mind according to the article can really help manage stress because it's an attempt to encourage your

self to not get bogged down by daily frustrations and I read this article and then my mom called me to make sure one you know that I was wearing my seat belt and ubers it's very important and to make sure I read the article and I realize kind of you know

after reading it a couple times that I unknowingly define my life by this term it's why I think I'm rather positive why I'm able to back that you know bounce back from things

rather easily so I think I'm you know generally over overly optimistic and things in my life and in looking at my life the past couple of years in contrast with that of those around me my friends colleagues people I've dated whatever it really is a defining mindset

and it's really important because it's the difference between being emotionally consistent and happy towards whatever life throws your way versus that of always kind of just being at the well of the bullshit in your life is the difference between being happy and being frustrated all the time this word pit pit really defines what it means to be alive and to control what you can control and have faith that the rest is met with that everything else is just meant to be

and so I have a lot of respect for the Danes with this word it's no surprise that blanket statement here that they're one of the happiest countries in the world they understand that life is constantly going to try to fuck with you you know that people are going to annoy you you're going to fail you're going to be embarrassed you're going to miss your train drop your phone spill your coffee

and you can choose to say pit or you can close off the frustrated and see those things as signs that you're not worthy of more that there's a reason for them or that you know you're a victim

I like this word because it's a mindset you know it's a reminder to not let things outside of your control interfere with your mood and again I never heard of this word and you probably won't hear me actually say the word because again I think it's more a mindset and you don't need to say it you know but in my life if you know me
