Yo, what's good? This is Rich, and you're listening to The Mental Wealth Show, where I talk health,

0:13.4

healing, and high performance. And on today's episode, I'm giving a healing journey update,

0:18.3

but not before Rich recommends where I've got a couple of things that I want to talk about today.

0:23.5

And so the first thing I want to talk about is this idea of two nights sleep before judgment.

0:30.1

And I got to this based off of how I felt at my first track meet of the season, how I felt afterwards, and then how I felt two

asked me right afterwards, the only, everything, the only thing I could think about was all

0:48.0

of the stuff that I did wrong. And I realized that I'm just such a highly competitive person.

1:29.5

work on, but that's all that I could think about after the competition was how I didn't perform

1:34.2

at the level that I wanted to as far as jumping specific distances and running a specific time.

1:41.8

So when I got back to the hotel that evening and I was reflecting on

1:46.5

my performances from the day and thinking about what I would have to share because I knew people

1:50.9

were going to start asking. I'd been talking about the meet everywhere nonstop for as long as I
