Now before our episode begins,

here's a quick word from our sponsors.

Hey there, good morning, and welcome to wake me up.

I'm your host Tyler as always,

and I'm so grateful that you chose to be here today.

This week we're talking about taking ownership,

radical responsibility for our own lives.

It's a concept born out of the... for our own lives.

It's a concept born out of the belief that the only way to create an extraordinary life,

whatever that means to you, is to take full responsibility of your own life, all of the good, all of the bad, and everything in between.

It can be really hard because it requires us to do the inner work necessary not to blame others or circumstances for happenings we don't like.

But it's only when we can recognize our own role in everything that happens in our life,

that we can then adapt that role so that we can begin building the life we want. In today's meditation we'll be honing that very skill. It's a

skill of self-reflection and so is perfectly suited for meditation like this.

So if you're still in bed,

use this moment to roll over and make your way up

and find your way up to a comfortable position. I recommend that you meditate sitting up,

even if it's sitting on the edge of your bed.

I just don't want you to lay down back in bed and fall back asleep.
