A speaker uses a toddler's claim that his poo smells like cherries to argue we should reframe life's worst moments as opportunities for something sweet. Turn the poo into cherries, he says, especially during the holidays.
Good morning, everyone. Here is your Moment of Yes for today. Happy Monday. So we got to spend yesterday with some good friends hanging out, and he was telling us the story of the first time that when he was dating his girlfriend, who became his wife, when they were visiting, he met her 2-year-old nephew for the first time. And they picked him up from the airport, and he was actually driving, and his girlfriend and The sister, the mother of the 2-year-old, had to run into the grocery store real quick, so he was in the car, the 2-year-old was sitting behind him in the child seat, and they're just kind of hanging out, and all of a sudden the 2-year-old says, hey, smell my fingers, it smells like cherries! And before he knew it, he had poo smeared across his face. Yeah, that was his introduction to the 2-year-old. So apparently to the 2-year-old, The poo smelled like cherries. And it had me thinking this morning. Yeah, that's what I was listening to this morning. We all talk about making lemonade out of lemons, but what if we went a step further and made cherries out of poo? And think of all the poo experiences in your life, or the poo experiences you might be feeling right now, and some possible poo experiences that might be coming up. With just everything that the holidays brings. I am not malpracticing you to say that you have got some poo coming your way. But things happen and situations get tough. Sometimes it feels like you are sitting in a pile of poo. What if you took that situation to find the cherries? To just appreciate that, hey, I can make the best of this. I can find a blessing in this. Or I can just put a smile on myself and embrace the fact that I am going to turn this into cherries. And that is the deepest inspiration that came to me today, but I am going with it. So have a great day. That is your Motive Yes. Turn that poo into cherries. Have a good one. Bye.
