0:00.0	You are listening to the Life Coach School podcast with Brook Castillo episode number 481.
0:08.0	Welcome to the Life Coach School podcast, where it's all about real clients, real problems, and real coaching.
0:17.0	And now your host, Master Coach Instructor Brook Castillo.
0:23.0	Hi beautiful friends.
0:26.0	I'm in Arizona today. It's 116.
0:32.0	Is that even real? Is that even possible? Yikes!
0:40.0	I leave today to go to New York to hang out with my bestie, Tanya.
0:45.0	So I'm very excited about that. It's definitely not as hot there, but it's human there, so it's all a trade-off.
0:50.0	It's exciting. We just came back to repack basically because I can't live in Arizona in the summer, and Bend Oregon seems to be the answer for me in the summer.
1:01.0	It is gorgeous there. So if you haven't been there, don't go there because the houses are very expensive.
1:07.0	And I might want to buy one there, but it would be a beautiful, beautiful place to visit.

2:11.0	And when you can own almost everything, you can't own the stuff that just happens in the world, all the circumstances in the world, but you can definitely own your experience of it.
2:24.0	It will change how much you create. I promise you.
2:30.0	Look at every situation in your life as if you own it, as if it is yours.
2:39.0	How you react to it. Maybe it's a diagnosis. Maybe it is an opportunity. Maybe it's a situation with the person that you meet.
2:52.0	No matter what it is, own it instead of feeling like you're at the effect of it.
2:59.0	Now do not misunderstand. This is in no way the same as blaming yourself for it or beating yourself up for it.
