In this short motivational video, the speaker delivers a "Moment of Yes" for March 1st, acknowledging National Women’s History Month before sharing a personal anecdote about an athletics coach who used a red dot on athletes' wrists as a reset cue during games. The coach later developed a tactile‑visual bracelet called the Human Reset Button, which produces a click and visual cue when pressed, serving as a mental reset tool. The speaker praises the device, explains how it can help users refocus, recalibrate, and return to the present moment, and encourages viewers to adopt similar visual or tactile reminders—such as a Sharpie dot or the bracelet—to practice mindfulness and improve performance throughout the day.

Good morning, everyone. Here is your Moment of Yes for Monday, March 1st. Happy March, everyone. Can you believe it? National Women's History Month. Yeah, I knew that from my days back at working for the writings of Mary Baker Eddy. We were all about Women's History Month. All right, so March. Here is— here's your Moment of Yes for today. So I got in contact with a guy on LinkedIn, and this is a gentleman. He was a— he's an athletics coach. I think he coached soccer, and pretty young guy, and his wife passed away from cancer. And clearly he was dealing with grief and the sadness and the difficulty of moving forward and dealing with that challenge. And so he would find himself continually kind of getting into a funk and then having to use mindfulness and different self-care techniques to get himself out of a funk by bringing his attention back to the present moment. And whether it's gratitude or kind of doing a mental reboot. And so he was working with athletes and he would notice how often different athletes would get distracted during a game, a bad call, a bad play, and it would impact, right, the next few minutes, if not more, of their play. And so with a few players, he would take a red Sharpie And he would make a little red dot on their wrist and he would say to them, every time you notice yourself get distracted, I want you to press that red button. That is your reset button. And I want you to bring your attention back to the present moment and think about, okay, what do I need to do now to be effective, right? And he would notice players out there during the games, they'd make a mistake and they would press their wrist. To do that reset. So he's like, wow, there's something to it. So he's worked with a lot of athletes. So he created these bracelets. And as you can see, the blue one right here, it's a little a little button inside. You click it and you can hear the noise, and it doesn't do anything except it gives you the noise and the visual. And it is the human reset button. He he created these bracelets called the human. Reset button. And he sent me a few of them for the family and just for me to try. And I just love it. Again, it's a visual reminder each day. And then there's a little tactile, right, feeling of when you notice yourself distracted, maybe getting emotionally charged, feeling like you're in a funk, you can literally tap the button. And then that's a reminder to go back to your own mental reset. What do you need to do to bring yourself back to the present moment? To reengage, to recalibrate, to refocus, take a few deep breaths, and be back at your best, or the best that you can be in that moment. So that's your moment of yes for today. Create something visual, do a Sharpie, go onto his website, the Human Reset Button, do whatever you need to do to do your own mental reset throughout the day so that you can live your yes, your excellent self. There you have it, everybody. Have an awesome day. Thank you.
