Greetings, greetings. Welcome to another episode of your Sunday morning word, and your host, Taris McKnight. And tonight, I want to talk about gravity. Now, gravity is something that keeps us down to Earth, something that grounds us, that keeps us walking, and keeps us on ground, keeps us on the ground basically, right?
Everybody knows what gravity is, hopefully, if you don't get in. OK, if you don't. It's OK if you don't. But gravity is something that all of us basically, we need and are like.
Gravity keeps us from flying away, though. But I want to talk about gravity from two different perspectives in life. Now, we need people in our lives. And people are like gravity.
We have people that are like gravity. They're like positive gravity. They keep us grounded. If you know me personally, I am not an easy person to get along with and our love, even though some people may take me as mankind or nice, I'm not that person, really, and truly.
I am a person that doesn't have a gray area. Everything is black and white. And I know it. I'm aware of that.
I'm aware of my biases. I'm aware of what I don't like. Or I don't like people I don't like. And I'm very extreme with it.
I'm talking about very extreme. I have a very extreme mindset. I mean, all the way to the left, I'm all the way to the right, but I'm never in the middle. And I think that's a good thing for me, personally, because that means that I'm going to pick a side and I'm going to stay there.
And I know what I want. However, there are times and instances where I myself don't see certain things in my life, or I don't see things, situations that could be either helpful or detrimental to me. For instance, one of my friends, one of my good friends, he said, we're talking about business. And I was like, man, why are people that I want to support my business, supporting my business?
The brother told me, he said, listen, T, you don't have time for that. I said, what do you mean? He said, you got to focus on the people that are supporting your business. Why are you concentrating on people that are not supporting your business?
Then something to keep me grounded right there. Because without that, I would just have just kept on saying, well, what's some of these people not supporting my business? I would just kept on with that mindset, because I would say, step minded, but I'm very focused and linear. Sometimes I need people like that in my life, and really people like that.
They keep us grounded in their way. They keep us to bring us back down to Earth. They tell us, listen, you're looking at this the wrong way. You should probably think about looking at it this way.
In another instance, I had a conversation with a female friend of mine to get a female's perspective. Because when it comes out to psychological understandings of a female, I'm at a disadvantage. I mean, I can understand women. So certainly, it brings me a better understanding of a woman's perspective on things, especially in a romantic setting.
So when I was talking with her, I was talking about how a particular female that I was dealing with had a problem that I posted my best friend. Me and my best friend, we've been cool and everything like that, we're just friends. But I was like, this female took offense to my post. And she asked me, she was like, well, then I was like, what's up with that?
And I was like, nothing. You know her. You know my best friend. You know, you've been around each other.
You know, talk down the phone. We face something together and things like that. And she was like, then I started a picture. She was like, yeah, I talked to her.
She would take offense today. I could see how she could take offense to that picture. Because you guys are very close. Because looking at it from her perspective, could she be that up toast with her male best friend of hers?
And I was like, oh. I was like, whoa, whoa, whoa. And I was like, you know what? You're right.
You're completely right. Now see how they think about that? We need people like that. We need people to keep us grounded like that, to keep us to show us a different perspective on how things make look.
And they keep us grounded and down to earth. Now, the other form of gravity, which I want to talk about is negative gravity. And as we discussed before, gravity keeps you to the ground. It keeps you from flying away.
Now, in a sense of having negative gravity, on a negative side of gravity, we have people in our lives. They're like gravity. They keep us from flying. We have people in our lives that keep us from flying.
They take, they take, they take. They never deal. There's never an arrest of positive. And if their field of enterprise is very minimum and very limited.
And I understand, people say, listen, I want to do things I've been getting in some of my heart. You know, come and come back and take care of me or got to come back and take care of me. You know, that's all good. That's all fine and daily.
However, you'll need people in your life that you can count on as much as they can count on you. That's what you need. I don't even know, most of the people that listen to my show personally. But I know that too.
Listen to me right now. You need people in your life that you can count on as much as they can count on you. Because if you are putting in all the work, if you are just basically draining yourself, whether that be physically, financially, spiritually, and nobody's been feeling your take, then it's going to become a burden. And that's how people become burdens.
You don't want people to become a burden in your life. And I'm pretty sure that people don't want to be a burden in your life. So in the interest of fairness, you can only be friends with somebody if they can equally help you out. People are only surely be friends with somebody if they can equally help you out as much as you help them out.
Because then there's no exploitation going on. You're not exploding in a relationship. Now, that's not to say that if you're building your brain or you're building yourself up, that you can't help your friends out and get money together and things like that. I think that's a beautiful thing, especially if you take on somebody and you want to help them get to similar positions in the trading, I don't see any problems with that.
None at all. I see no problems with that at all. But when you got somebody that's constantly taking and that's not trying to do better, and it seems as if they may be exploiting your relationship for personal gain, and that's a problem. That's a problem that you guys aren't really friends.
You have an ex-partainable relationship. You're not really friends. Now, if you can equally benefit from each other than your friends, then you offer friends. Other than that, they're just Bradley and they're preventing you from flying away in the metaphorical sense.
They're preventing you from lifting off and going to your destination, yeah? We have people in our lives like that. We have people in our lives that are like gravity and holding us down and bringing us down. Also, another thing that I want to speak of bringing us down, bringing us down, there are people that do or say little foul or slick comments towards you.
They truly don't really catch, but you're psychic catches, your brain catches you, and it works its way up until your mental state and your subconscious sometimes. Because some people may tell somebody about a little venture that you're doing or something new that you want to try and instead of encouraging you, they may say, oh, why you want to do that? Well, I don't think you can do that. Oh, I don't think you're right for that.
Instead of giving you the encouraging words, they always try to find a way to put you down or bring you down. And those people that we have to watch off on too, that's a negative gravity person. And like I said, we've got negative and positive gravity. You know, the positive people, they're going to bring you down earth in a better way.
They want to see you, they're going to bring you down earth and keep you grounded in order for you to think well to maintain or even get better. But people that are negative gravity, they just prevent you from flying and nothing else. They don't want to see you do better. They want to see you down.
They don't want to see you get up. You know. And honestly, we need both people for balance. We need both people because there can be motivation for you as well because you're always going to tell people that's going to be negative towards you.
You're always going to ask them people that's going to be positive towards you. But the people that you choose to have around you means a lot. Especially as a romantic partner. And I'm not going to get into the game.
That's the game, you know, that's the game, that's the game. I'm not going to get into the game, but I always say that the person that you choose till they next to, it's very important. When you wake up in the morning, the energy transferance right next to you, right to you. Then a positive move, you can feel it.
And you've got to be able to choose that person wisely. For other reasons as well, but one of the main reasons is the energy, the energy that's transferred between guys. And you know, you've got to be able to have like a certain understanding and a certain agenda when you wake up. You know, we wake up, you should always wake up with an agenda.
What am I going to do this morning? I'm going to succeed this morning. And that person should be helping you with that agenda and tell you to help me. But that's far away, man.
It's so hard to find out that it's crazy. But I want to get into the game. I just wanted to, you know, say my morning words, say my morning sermon on Sundays. I called it my morning, my on Sunday morning word for these sermons and hopefully for those who can't go to church, hopefully they have a fields.
This fulfills some of your needs and some of your wants because when you're going to church and not offensive to the church, pretend you Christian folks and anything like that. But when you go into the church, everything's so organized. You know, you may hear the saying, the Bible only has so many chapters and verses and things like that. But to the problem where you're going to just, you hear them all.
You know, sometimes you just need to hear something from like experiences. Sometimes that's what you need. Sometimes you don't need somebody to be featured from a book. You know, there's been a major living room for like what 2000 years of life is even more.
Sometimes you don't need that. Sometimes you need to get from people life experiences and to life and that. Thank you very much. Thank you guys for joining me.
I appreciate you. I really do. Thank you for listening. I just spoke truth to power.
You guys have a great selling one.
