Full Episode Transcript:
Good morning! Welcome to the Keto Mom page. My name is Stephanie, and we are going to talk about "Curiosity". We're about to wrap up this book, "The 15 Invaluable Laws of Growth" by John Maxwell. Always remember that the power of your mindset is going to help you in any area of your life. My hope is that we would be done by the end of this month, so we can start diving into habits and systems by the 1st of February.
We're going to finish this book first because we finish what we start. We talked about goals, visions, the things you want, and then taking action. We also talked about finishing what you've started. It's exciting to start something, but the middle can seem mundane. You should look at every single day as a learning opportunity. Do not be bored, keep going and finish what you've started. So we're going to finish the book, we've got a couple of chapters left.

How many of you believe that you're good at asking questions? My husband is incredible at asking questions. If you ever had a conversation with him, or if you've listened to him talk to people. He's not the one who usually gives advice, but he asks questions to spur on people's minds and their mindset.
"Curious people possess a thirst for knowledge and they're interested in life, people ideas, experiences and events. They live in a constant state of wanting to learn more".

What does this have to do with fat loss?
A lot! Because you're learning and growing your mindset.
It's as simple as asking, "Why do I do, the things I do, every day?"
Is it because I grew up doing that?
Is it because it's a habit?
Is it because my grandma did that?
Is it because my mom did that?
Is it because of the environment that we're in?
Is it because it's convenient?
This is a great question to ask yourself, to make sure you're on the right course. How many of you have kids, who always ask you, why? And how many of you caught yourself not answering your kidโs questions? Oftentimes, we take our children's curiosity away because we don't answer the questions. Have you ever said, โBecause I said so?โ.
One of the biggest things I've realized is you never want to take their creativity away. You never want to have them stop asking questions. You want them to live a life of curiosity. You want them to ask questions.
If there's anything you take away out of today's conversation, it should be, when somebody asks you "Why", you should answer the question or seek to find the answer.
"All meaningful and lasting change starts first in the imagination and then works its way out". ~Albert Einstein

You cannot do things on the outside in a way that is inconsistent with how you think on the inside. That is why your mindset is so important. If you've got goals to look or feel a certain way, you're going to have to work on the inside first, and then it will show on the outside.

Your attitude is super important on how you approach life.
Are you thankful?
Are you crabby?
Did you wake up today on the right side of the bed?
Did you wake up today with an "I get to" or "I have to" mindset?

Doing this requires 3 things:
First, you must wake up with an attitude of openness to something new. You must see the day as having multiple opportunities to learn.
Second, you must keep your eyes and ears open as you go through the day. Most unsuccessful people accept their day, tuning things out, simply hoping to endure the day. Successful people seize their day, they focus on it, they ignore distractions. Growing people remain focused.
Third, is โReflection. It does little good to see something new without taking time to think about it. It does no good to hear something new and never apply it. I found the best way to learn something new is to take time at the end of the day to ask yourself a question that prompts you to think about what you've learned. Remember, experience is not the best teacher, evaluating experience is.
What did you learn? Take something that you've learned in any part of your day, reflect on it, take action on it, and apply it to your life.

If they fail, they've learned from it, they're going to implement something different, and they're going to keep going.
Alright! We will be done in a couple of days, and then we'll dive into the next book, "The Miracle Morning". My hope is for you to ask more questions, and if somebody asks you a question, then answer them. Be curious, be like a child. Maybe your takeaway should be more like your children in the curiosity aspect.
Do you think my husband wants to come and say anything? So my husband is going to share a few things on his mind.
"What's up keto mom community? The biggest thing that I would encourage you all with, is curiosity is powerful. Curiosity, asking the right questions, and being consistent, are things that are super important".
"Yesterday, we learned about having a plan and putting it into play by having a place and a time set aside. Oftentimes, people usually fall short. People usually perish because they lack a vision or a plan".
I want to encourage you to have a plan, and to be curious. To constantly pursue the things that you're going after"

"I think it's brilliant. It is a tool to help you. It's not the living word or the Bible. The house story is remarkable. It gives you perspective and I think that's something that you can also learn from people".
"If you want to know the best reflection of your current life? Look at your children. Your children are a product of the environment that you've created for them. And it's interesting, because sometimes when we run into people in different places, they'll say a couple of different things. Some of them say, 'You just wait till your kids get older. And a long time ago, that used to really frustrate us until we started realizing, that's their story and that's their perspective. That's how they raised their children. That is not our story".
"Maybe that's what they were taught, and they didn't know or decide to learn something new. That's not the story are writing. I'll just give you an example, last night, it was funny, it was bad. So last night we were in an Airbnb down in Florida. It's a beautiful home and I really love how these people put this house together. The room that our girls are staying in has two bunk beds. We have four daughters, so that works perfectly".
While we we're getting ready for bed last night, all of a sudden, I hear this shriek, this scream, it was like a deathly scream. So dad defense moves go full blown. I'm thinking all SWAT and all karate, cobra Kai, I'm going all in. I'm about to protect my family. I'm thinking this could be my moment.
I walked in there and I could see it on their faces, Emery, which is our twelve-year-old she's the one who screamed. Amelia, our eldest is the one who's laughing, and the other two younger ones knew I was not happy.
They were just being silly, and Amelia was spraying Emery with water when she came out of the bathroom. I probably would have handled it differently, and I'm still navigating how I feel about it. I was just really worked up because I went into full protective dad mode.
The point is, 'Watch your words'. Because I told the girls that I was disappointed on how they acted.
I really thought I was going to beat somebody up. My heart rate went through the roof, and I told them that they took a year off of my life. I even said, "Whenever I'm going to die, just know that I should have had one more year, because of what happened tonight".
He spoke it and that's not good. We should talk about the power of our words. That is the number one thing we teach our kids. I've got to rework that and I'm going to pull back those words. We talked about asking questions, and being curious. Why do you do things in your life, and if your children are a reflection of you.
Here's the morning miracle though, I woke up to a text message. And it was our daughter apologizing, she was apologizing. So again, if you want to know what's up with your life? Just look at your children. Yes, you can all get frustrated and we're all in the pursuit of better. But the reality is your kids are a product of your environment.
I'm grateful and thankful to have had a great conversation with the kids this morning.
They apologized and I apologized. And I hope that's an encouragement to you all.
Anyways, we are going to talk about the power of our words, not today, but a different day. Like a full-on-blown topic of just the power of your words. Because we talk about mindset, we can give you all the tips and tricks on how to eat keto. We can give you the tactical tools and we can say it's important to read, it's important to learn, it's important to grow, it's important to take action.
But one of the biggest things that people do not focus on, is their words. If you're speaking life and death over your family, over yourself or over any situation. Maybe we'll dive into that before we start the next book.
Alright! Just continue to follow along, every single morning except the weekends, depending on how our days go. We appreciate you guys. Always reach out if you have any questions, and continue to tune in. We'll see you later, bye everybody!
