What is going on everybody? Welcome back to the Mind Over Macros Podcast as always. I am your

host Mike Milner. First let me apologize. Let me apologize for the difference in sound quality.

This is an on the road episode coming to you from

beautiful and sunny Miami, which was not intentional, but we'll just start this episode with a little lesson

because I had a crazy week I had this trip planned I was doing a workshop for other coaches over the weekend and I knew I

needed to get ahead of the podcast schedule and I had everything mapped out

beautifully except I could not get this one episode done. So I brought my

headset with me because the lesson here is adjustments over excuses. Anytime you're in a situation where plans change

and you you may have even planned ahead. Let's say you're traveling or you've got a

function or an event or something and you plan ahead and you do the best you can and then everything goes to shit.

I like to think about the adjustment instead of the excuse.

It's very easy to say, oh, well,

X, Y, Z happened, so I couldn't get this thing done.

But try to think of it as two separate entities. We often combine the two. Like, you know, my kid did

this, so I did this. Like my kid was acting crazy, so I ate everything in sight.

No, those are actually two separate entities.

Your kid did something and then you separately chose to respond that way.

So it's important the way that we communicate with ourselves

and I just wanted to use this as a reminder that no this isn't perfect. I am very particular about sound quality. I hate that I have to sacrifice on that.

And I also am disappointed that my plans did not go as I expected when it comes to getting ahead of

this, but it happens.

So we make the adjustment, we move on, and sometimes done is better than perfect and hopefully I'll make up for it
