In this short motivational monologue, the speaker—who has been appointed commissioner and director of the Pod Squad Olympics—shares how his new role unexpectedly involves creating games and entertainment for the team. He reflects on the broader purpose of his position: to identify and apply his own talents daily, and to encourage others to recognize the gifts, skills, or "superpowers" they are being called to use each day. He urges listeners to lean into those abilities, add value, and bless others with what they have, framing this mindset as the "Moment of Yes" to start the week.

Good morning, everyone. This is your Moment of Yes for Monday, January 17th, a new week as we jump into January 2022 even more. Hopefully you guys had a great weekend. So I had a fun conversation with Hollister yesterday when I was sort of joking, hey, hey, do you know what I did last night? I, I created a game for the players because I have been put in charge of the Pod Squad Olympics. I am the commissioner and director of the Pod Squad Olympics, which means I need to come up with competitions for the guys. And she just kind of laughed. And the funny part of that is, you know, I didn't really think when I took this job that a big part of my job would be creating games and entertainment for the guys. But that is sort of the nature of this position. Lots of hats from, you know, Being a one-on-one mental conditioning coach to putting together fun games for the guys. And so we were just talking about like, hey, that's in my skill set, that's in my bag of tricks, if you will. And so the idea is sort of what talent, what gift are you being asked to give today? On a day-to-day basis. Part of this job is sometimes I walk around, I'm like, oh shoot, what am I really doing? What am I supposed to do today? How can I add more value? How can I do more? And that ability to be like, hey, today what is being called of me is this. And so just lean into that. What gift, what talent of yours, what superpower of yours is being called forth today? Just lean into it, right? Provide it, offer it. You might need a different one tomorrow, but it's all about, you know, being able to offer, to add value, to provide what skills and qualities and talents that you have. And knowing that might change from day to day, moment to moment, but we all are blessed with lots of different skills, qualities, and gifts. Yeah, I don't really think this one is high up on the chart as far as special skills, but that's what has been called forth of me over these couple of days. So I'm leaning into it, I'm having fun with it, and I'll put on the best darn PodSquad Olympics these guys have ever seen. So today, start your week off with this idea of what gifts are being called forth today? What gifts can you give to others? What qualities? What skills? What ideas? How can you lean into your gifts today and show up and offer those? That's what's being felt. You know, you are blessing others with the gifts that you have. All right, guys, that's your moment of yes for today. Have an awesome day. Bye.
