This is Dr. Laura. The call of the day is coming right up after this message from my sponsor.

I wanted to know why some people who get COVID-19 get it so bad.

I found out it may be because they have a high risk factor, such as heart disease, diabetes,

being overweight, smoking, and asthma. Even if symptoms feel mild, these factors can increase your

risk of COVID-19 turning severe. So if you're at high risk and test positive,

there are things you can do, like asking your health care provider if an authorized

oral treatment is right for you. Learn about an option at treatcovid19.com. This message is

I was expecting that. It was an email about a few weeks ago. I was a coding specialist

supervisor. I kept getting myself in these roles where I get myself over my head in these jobs.

So I get fired and it's repeated the thing. It's happened again. I'm a little curious about what

you just said. If you know you can't swim, why are you diving into water that's 50 feet deep

and then feeling bad when you're almost drowned? What's the point of that? No, no, not exactly.

What is the point of that? I think it's because these jobs offer a lot more money.

But it's 50 feet of water and you don't know how to swim. So you set yourself up for failure

and then you feel bad about yourself. You know what? Are you a Clint Eastwood fan?

Yes. You've seen his dirty, hairy movies? Absolutely. Man's got to know his limitations.

Yeah, yeah, that's my biggest problem. If you are willing at any point in life, don't talk

to him. Why did I give you that quote? Why did I do that? I'm sorry. What? Why did I give you that quote?

Why do you think I gave you that quote? No, my limitations. Yeah, don't jump in over my head.

Wouldn't you? Whatever it is. Whatever.

Well, you can't fail if you do what you can do. You won't fail. You set yourself up for failure.
