In this short motivational segment titled “Moment of Yes,” the speaker encourages viewers to examine the personal narrative they tell themselves about their lives. He uses humor, referencing George Clooney and the late Don Knotts, to illustrate how we often cast ourselves in certain roles. The core exercise asks the audience to articulate their own story—often anchored in a specific past event—and then deliberately challenge its meaning. He shares a personal example of failing a high‑school math class, explaining how that failure became a self‑imposed belief that he can’t do math. By reframing the story, acknowledging the factual failure while rejecting the limiting interpretation, he demonstrates how to shift perspective, consider alternative explanations, and adopt a growth‑oriented mindset. The monologue ends with a light‑hearted sign‑off referencing a “MonaVie S4” segment and a shout‑out to a viewer named Jennifer.

Good morning everyone, here is your Moment of Yes. Now yesterday we talked about our story and if we were to make a movie about our life, what would that story be? And obviously it was my feeling that George Clooney would play me in my story, although I'm sure lots of you would probably agree that Don Knotts, were he still alive, would be the better choice. Sadly, I think Don Knotts is probably a closer representation Than George Clooney. So today, I want you to think about the story. If you took the time to articulate what your story is, what is the story that you tell yourself about your life? Now today, you're going to, you're going to challenge that story a little bit. Now if you took the time yesterday, in your thought you have an idea of, wow, this is the story I've been telling myself about life. Or maybe it's just one particular incident in In your life. So today, as you start your day or after you watch this video and continue your day, I want you to get real clear about what that story is that you have created. And I want you to take a moment just to not change the meaning but challenge the meaning that you've given to it. And it might be like for me, I failed a math class in high school and I was a really good student. So the story I told myself for the past 20-plus years is I don't do math. Now, I don't enjoy math, all right? But the fact that I don't get math or I can't do math is a story that I've hung on to, and it's definitely affected me in certain ways. So if I were to challenge that story, which I have done, I might challenge the idea that I might currently struggle with this subject, but I know that I am capable. I know that my source, God, love, universe, gives me all the ability to understand this concept. And so if I really work hard at it and I don't get so frustrated and attached to outcome, this is probably something that I can grow in. So I want you to think about a story that you have. The facts are the facts. I failed that class. But what am I gonna make that mean to me? Am I gonna make that mean that I'm an idiot? No comment, Hollister. Or am I going to make that mean to me, huh, maybe this is something that I need to work a little harder on or take a different approach with. Or just completely look at from a different perspective. Maybe it was the teacher who was totally horrible and it was all his fault. Probably not that either. So, but look at your story, challenge your story today. And I need to run because I've got Don Knotts on line 2, which is really creepy because as we know, Don's no longer with us. That's your MonaVie S4 today, everyone. Have a wonderful day. And, um, Jennifer, enjoy this as your end of the video face.
