Good evening, everybody. How are y'all doing? Welcome to the show.

I wanted to start the show off by asking you, how is your mental health? I might be the only

person that has asked you that today, this week, this month, maybe even this year. So just reminding

you to take a moment and check in with yourself. I want everyone to do that every single day,

maybe even multiple times a day. Hey, how's my mental health doing? What might I need? Might I need more downtime and rest instead of reaching for that candy or that Red Bull or that coffee? If you are tired,

it's a sign you need rest, not to push through. Can you back off, drop the bar a little bit? Maybe

it's time to call today or an evening. Maybe you need to sleep in tomorrow. Maybe you need to go to

bed earlier tonight. Maybe you need to take tomorrow off. Maybe you need to spend the rest of the night on the couch watching television.

It's okay to relax. Uh, maybe you need to back off. I'm telling everyone, work 70% max. We're not given

anything 100%. That's how we get into burnout. 70% max carving out every day, time for pleasure, doing things that are

rooted in nothing more than just feeling good and putting a smile on your face. And that is

productive. Please don't think that because something doesn't generate income or something,

you know, financially driven or visually, visually, you know, goal driven. It is reasonable to say, I'm going to just eat this

donut. I'm just going to lay and listen to some music for a few hours. I'm just going to dance.

I'm going to lay on the couch. I'm going to look through a magazine. Flip them, like, whatever

you need to do, joy is, is productive. Also, rest, leisure. We need more of it. So, and i was always asked someone else you know other

important people to hey how's your mental health giving people you know not just again the

acknowledgement that that's an important thing to do but letting them know that you're a resource

um interesting study i like to share things and you know we're not going to spend much time

on it.

There's not really too much to say other than how interesting and sad some of this development is.

So this is a study coming out of the Netherlands and it's pretty profound. So the headline is
