In addition to my longer Coffee with Nicoa interview episodes, make sure to subscribe so you never miss an espresso shot. Or a full length Coffee with Nicoa interview created just for you. Good morning. It's Nicoa Coffee with Nicoa. It's your weekly espresso shot. How many of you say Expresso? Just for the record? That's wrong? Okay. It's espresso. Espresso, say it with me. Espresso. E S. P r, e SSF. Don't say, Expresso. I'm just just between you and me. I'd started just you know, as friend. It's like I'm putting your tagging because it was showing I just want to make sure. So here's the thing about today's espresso shot. First, I'd like to ask you, how's the mood? How's the mood today? Yeah, hey, feeling? Anybody like off kilter? If you get a little off kilter or feeling a little out of whack? Like these little phrases, then it's time to do something completely different. And I mean, completely different. I sent a text to my clients today, that goes like this good, bad or indifferent feeling today, are you doing time for something completely different? When we do something completely different? We wake up those neurons, we enhance our creativity, we release stress, we remove boredom, we decrease the lack of fulfillment, and we increase overall productivity. And oh, by the way, our emotional well being, we just feel better. So it's time to do something completely different. So what would that look and feel like? Look, I don't even care what you do differently, but you need to do something different. I don't care if you put your left leg in your pants before the right leg because you always put your right leg in first, let's just start with something basic like that. And I think even Mel Robbins talks about brushing your teeth with your left hand if you're right handed. If you can do something different, you're waking yourself up, get out of the dumb, boring routine, okay? It's not done. Routines are dumb to me. I don't like routines. I like rituals, and practices. But I don't like it to be too routine. I like to get it a little shaken up every once in a while. So let's think about what you could do completely different every day, this week, every day, choose something different to do. So some examples I said maybe you sit outside today. I don't care if it's freezing. Build a little fire in your firepit and bundle up with blankets and take your hot cocoa or your your coffee. Duh. I should have said cold. Why didn't I say coffee? Okay, your coffee with you outside? And, you know, scroll Instagram out there. Or maybe you're gonna go out to lunch today by yourself and eat at that fancy restaurant that your partner won't ever get around to inviting you to. Maybe you should do some yoga in the hallway. What about jumping jacks in the bathroom? Looking at yourself in the mirror with no clothes on? Also something different? You didn't see that one? Common? Did you? Did you? Okay, you can wear clothes, but I do like the jumping jacks in the mirror approach. Listen, when you do something different, you're shaking things up, go dance in the kitchen, go have breakfast for dinner. Find a way to shake things up in your relationships with your children. The next time one of your kids does something crazy. Sit down in the middle of the floor and say here, come sit with me. Come sit next to me. Do the same with your partner. I don't care. Hey, maybe you should spontaneously try to have sex with your partner in a different room. Ah, I used the word sex in my espresso shot. Yes. Okay. Listen, I actually sent that to all my clients. And one of my clients was like, Ooh, sexy time in another room. I'm liking this good idea. You've got to create a different experience. If you want a different experience. Should we put that on a sticker? You have to create a different experience if you want to experience something different, or whatever I said, All right. So you're off. You have a new plan every single day. This week, you're going to do something completely different. And I want you to text me and tell me or send me a message DM me. This is your espresso shot. I'll talk to you guys later.
