4. Exploring Five Success Habits

Timestamp: [17:59]

Kat introduces the main topic of the episode: five habits that contribute to success, based on an article by Alex Mathers from Medium.com. The discussion is both analytical and conversational, allowing listeners to reflect on their own practices.

Habit 1: Spend Less Time Ruminating on Setbacks

• Kat: "Train yourself to recover from setbacks by getting back into motion quickly."

Amy acknowledges the challenge but emphasizes her efforts to move past setbacks promptly.

• Amy: "Sometimes I do, but I try to move past."

Habit 2: Consume What Few Consume

• Kat: "Read and consume what most others are not. Success isn't about fitting in."

This encourages differentiation and finding unique sources of knowledge and inspiration.

• Amy: "I like that. Challenge accepted."

Habit 3: Be Provocative

• Kat: "They prioritize creating polarity in their audience. This means that many people... will dislike what they stand for."

The hosts discuss the importance of standing firm in one's beliefs, even if it means not pleasing everyone.

• Amy: "I think that would be an interesting episode... we could do a deep dive into that."

Habit 4: Work When Others Are Chilling

• Kat: "Successful people often have a powerful purpose that makes it a no brainer for them to turn down invites and offers from others to stop working so hard and come join us."

Amy shares her personal experiences of balancing work and relaxation, especially when co-hosting her own practice.

• Kat: "When I look back... all I want to do is chill."

Habit 5: Be Problem-Centric

• Kat: "Successful people don't become successful by avoiding problems."

Amy and Kat reflect on the necessity of confronting challenges head-on rather than seeking comfort.

• Amy: "Our loyal followers know. They get it."

This final habit reinforces the idea that embracing and solving problems is a cornerstone of sustained success.

[Amy]

Happy Tuesday. Welcome to the fifth thing. I'm Amy.

[Kat]

And I'm Kat.

[Amy]

And today's quote is unknown. It's a meme of sorts. Some days I amaze myself. Other days I put my keys in the fridge.

[Kat]

I feel like you would do that on purpose, though.

[Amy]

Have you heard of fridge scaping?

[Kat]

Is that making your fridge look really pretty?

[Amy]

Landscaping for your fridge? Yes. And people are putting photo albums, picture frames. Wait, what decor? Because think of how many times you open your fridge and how fun if you open it up and you're like, how cute.

[Kat]

Nobody's doing that.

[Amy]

Yeah, they are. It's called fridge scaping.

[Kat]

It has a name that was more like making your fridge look color coded and having all of like, your drink set up. Cute.

[Amy]

Well, you could do that too, because that's pretty. If you're into that. I feel like I can do that.

[Kat]

Enough room in their fridge to put a picture frame in it.

[Amy]

I keep a tidy fridge. I feel like I could add a picture frame.

[Kat]

I could not.

[Amy]

I do have a fun email from a listener named Kelly and it's an update she emailed us a couple of years ago, which shout out for people that have been listening for multiple years and that are emailing. You know, maybe they haven't emailed in a couple of years, but they think, oh, I'm going to give an update. Which I've been reading some different updates. So I think that puts in people's heads too, like, oh, I have an update, which we love. So please send if you have emailed before and you have an update. So she said, hey, Amy and Kat, I emailed a couple of years ago and about a crazy thing my husband and I were doing trying to build a house on 40 acres in California. Well, we pivoted our dream about a year ago, which. Pause. This is me talking now. My episode last Thursday came from your three Chords therapy newsletter, which I did not write that. Yeah, I should have.

[Kat]

Therapist did. Okay. I didn't wanna take credit for it.

[Amy]

Yeah. And it was all about permission to change your mind. And I love that this email touches on that too. And she sent this before she ever even heard that episode. So it would have been perfect for me to read in that episode because she changed her mind and it was a big dream that she had put out there. And that's one of those things where you have permission to change your mind about what you want to eat for dinner, about a relationship, about whether or not you want to go out one night. And if you've put a big dream out there, you have permission to change. And no one's going to think less of you for it. So here you go. She said we pivoted our dream about a year ago. We had lived on the land for about two years and just decided it wasn't the right location. So we moved off and have been trying to sell ever since. Sometimes it's hard to have a dream that doesn't come to fruition. That's okay. We have simply shifted our dream, which I love too, that this is an example, side note of sometimes our mind gets changed for us. Like we get to shift based on information we're receiving.

[Kat]

Yeah. Like you. You did the thing and then you're like, wait, this actually isn't it.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Kat]

You're allowed to listen to that.

[Amy]

Yes. And if it's not working out, sometimes we will grind and push and grind to make it work. And it's not going to when everything's right in front of our face. Which she said, like, it's hard that it wasn't coming to fruition. But they didn't stay there and try to force it. They flowed with it. She said, that's okay. We have simply shifted our dream. We now plan to retire early at 55 and move to Thailand. We have been studying Thai for about a year. It's the hardest language I have ever learned.

[Kat]

How many languages does she know?

[Amy]

I don't know. She's a teacher, so I know I'm kind of jealous of that. This year we're going to be spending the entire summer there. Parentheses bonus for being teachers. We're going to be traveling and celebrating our 25th anniversary and scoping out potential retirement locations. We were also lucky enough to be able to go over the holiday break and be a part of our Thai teacher's wedding there. Which how cool that they have this.

[Kat]

Thai teacher they have a relationship with.

[Amy]

And then they're going over there and they're like, yeah, I want to be a part of your wedding. I feel like Kelly and her husband are awesome people. I've also been trying to think of a word of the year for me, and when I heard you and Kat talking on the fifth thing today, I really like when Kat suggested stretch. I feel like that's gonna be my word. I definitely need to stretch more physically, mentally, and socially. So thank you. I am taking this as my word. I want to stretch and become a better wife, friend, mother, teacher, athlete in parentheses, recreational, a Thai speaker. And sometimes this might mean something I might be hesitant to do. I never karaoke and my husband would love it if I did. So maybe I stretch my comfort there too.

[Kat]

See how they seem so cool. I like hanging out with them.

[Amy]

Like, let's go karaoke. Anyway, thanks if you read all my rambling. I appreciate how open you are with all of us whom you've never met. Perhaps if you do another live podcast someday I'll be able to make it and say hi, your friend in California, Kelly. Well, shoot, let's do the next Live in Thailand.

[Kat]

That'd be awesome, actually. Really would.

[Amy]

The only downside would be the flight.

[Kat]

How far away is that, you think?

[Amy]

Far.

[Kat]

Like a 20 hour flight.

[Amy]

That's all I can tell you.

[Kat]

Okay.

[Amy]

I have no idea. I've never been over there.

[Kat]

You've never researched this? Okay. Her life sounds so cool. Sounds like she's already stretching, but I guess that might not be. I stretched for her.

[Amy]

Like now I feel Like I need to stretch. Thank you, Kelly, for sending that. I do have another email. This one is just a question from Natalie. She said, hey, Amy, I remember you talking about a vitamin D light in parentheses, happy light that you had gotten. And if I remember correctly, maybe you even got one for Bobby. Do you have a link? I did check your Amazon page and I didn't see anything there. Thanks so much. Which I replied to her and I sent her the link. But have you heard of a happy light?

[Kat]

I meant to ask you about this because I remember you talking about it, too, and I wanted to do some research on it.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Kat]

Because of just the winter and it's cold and I haven't been outside.

[Amy]

Yeah. I didn't know if I talked about here on the fifth thing or four things or if I just talked about on the Bobby Bones show or where. But light in the morning is so good for you. And sometimes you can't get that light first thing in the morning. So you could use your happy light or just light in general if you work indoors a lot. But like you said, even winter. Just that. Seasonal depression, which I was just reminded when I was talking to my college roommate this week about antidepressants. She's trying to shift off of one. And I said, well, pause. You may want to consult with your doctor, which I'm sure that you are. She has a family of doctors, so I know they know what they're doing. But I just reminded her that it is winter. And I tried to get off of Wellbutrin in the winter and that did not go well. So I got back on it, and then I was able to successfully get off of it because that was the right move for me in the summer.

[Kat]

When it was sunny out, when you can not replace. But there's other things you can do that you just can't do in the winter. Again, it's 20 degrees outside. I'm personally not going for a walk outside.

[Amy]

No, we're taping this ahead of time a little bit, so I'm just going to go ahead and tell you. Do you know in a couple of days it's going to be 10 degrees here? That's what my dermatologist told me today. He moonlights as a weatherman. Wait, what?

[Kat]

I'm sorry, how did that come up? Like, he just was like, you don't have anything to talk about. So he's like, so the weather's gonna change. Your dermatologist doesn't have to create conversation with you.

[Amy]

No, but we were talking about my skin and how itchy it has been. And he was checking out this pre cancer spot on my nose again because I've been trying to get that scabby part gone. So he froze it again today and we'll see what happens. But then we start talking about other parts of my skin where I was like, look, see this like rash thing? And he said, oh, that's eczema. He said, it's probably flaring up in the winter. It's really, really cold and your skin is dry. I said, well, I'm moisturizing. That's the thing. He said, well, how hot are your showers? I said, oh, they're hot as they should be. I have been taking really hot showers because I'm so cold all the time. And he's like, lukewarm. No, lukewarm. We only take lukewarm showers, especially in the winter. He's like lukewarm and stop using any scented things. And he said that our skin barrier in the winter is just different than it is in the summer, so we need to protect it in other ways.

[Kat]

I don't like the information he's giving you. It's probably right. But a lukewarm shower? Yeah, that feels cold to me.

[Amy]

I mean, I can take cold showers, so it's fine. I like cold. I do. I do cold showers. Yes.

[Kat]

Like wash your hair in the cold shower.

[Amy]

Yes.

[Kat]

No, you don't.

[Amy]

A hundred percent. I have told you this. You know I like to cold plunge.

[Kat]

Yes. But cold plunging is not like a shower is supposed to be like replenishing and like relaxing and I'm going to be in there for a little bit. A cold plunge is like, let's do this for two minutes.

[Amy]

I know, but if I am not able to cold plunge or do cryotherapy or something, then I'll be like, okay, I'm going in. I set a timer and I take a cold shower. And I should get back to that. But I got it really, really into hot, hot, hot showers this winter. And I guess my skin is having a reaction. And he told me, like, look, I could probably come up with something else and charge you a bunch of money, but really what you need to do is take a lukewarm shower. Trust me, that's.

[Kat]

That was nice of him. He sounds like a good guy.

[Amy]

Yeah. And then he gave me some cerave samples and I said, so I can just use the cerave, which I love. But then I was like, I, what about all this other stuff I see, you know, on Instagram and TikTok? He's like, well, people are really good at marketing. And I'm like, I know, but they make me feel like this is what your skin needs. Your skin is thirsty for this. And I'm like, yeah, my skin is thirsty for that.

[Kat]

And he's not selling you products?

[Amy]

No. I mean, he has stuff for your face. I have a skincare routine I love, and he knows that, so, no, he's not trying to push anything on me. But he's like, your face, your neck, your chest, go. Whatever. He's like, but your arms and your legs, especially in the winter. He's like, just stuff from the drugstore.

[Kat]

He said no. No scented.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Kat]

Body wash or lotions.

[Amy]

Correct.

[Kat]

What?

[Amy]

Yeah. I don't know what to tell you. But he also said as I'm, like, itching my arms and no fabric softener in the winter.

[Kat]

Oh, no dryer sheets. Okay. I actually have a question about the dryer sheets. I don't use fabric softener. I think just because I don't want to buy an extra thing. Dryer sheets. Apparently we're not supposed to be using these at all.

[Amy]

My sister uses these balls.

[Kat]

The wool something.

[Amy]

Wool balls.

[Kat]

I forgot.

[Amy]

So I think I'm gonna get some of those.

[Kat]

Okay. Well, do you use dryer sheets? But wait, why is it in the winter you're not supposed to use them because of the irritation of your skin?

[Amy]

That's what he said. I didn't ask him to elaborate, but he said something about our skin barrier being more sensitive in the winter.

[Kat]

I read something, and this is not fact checked, so this could be. Not that true, But I read that dryer sheets actually make your clothes last shorter. Like it.

[Amy]

They don't last as long.

[Kat]

Yep. How. Why could I not say that?

[Amy]

Same thing with fabric softener. Like, even if you buy lululemon, you know, it says in the thing, don't use fabric softener on Lululemon clothes.

[Kat]

Oh, I never really read the directions.

[Amy]

Me neither. But I know that I've seen that, and I'm like, screw it. I'm using the fabric softener because I.

[Kat]

Like coating on the clothes is what I was reading.

[Amy]

Yeah, So I was at the store. So I got distilled white vinegar, and I'm going to use that as a.

[Kat]

What does that do?

[Amy]

I don't know. I just did a quick Google and it said that it could be a replacement to fabric softener. That's not going to be an irritant, but.

[Kat]

Dang it. Your laundry detergent smells so good.

[Amy]

I know. That's what I told Him. I said, do you. Have you ever smelled the ginger mango method? Because it smells really good. I used to love that stuff and I would talk about it on here. What's the thing from that store by the movie theater? Buff. Buff City.

[Kat]

I've never heard of that. Whatever you have.

[Amy]

You've heard of it because I've talked about it.

[Kat]

Wait, it's the store called Buff City?

[Amy]

Yeah. Yes. And they have this detergent called Narcissist, and it smells so good that I remember good.

[Kat]

That's what I feel like I remember smelling. And you can't use it anymore?

[Amy]

No, I started to get a rash, and that's just me, my friend, my other cat. Yeah, cryo cat, she loves it and uses it. She just went to Buff City and got some the other day. So don't not use it because my weird skin, apparently I can't do anything I need to.

[Kat]

God, you have distilled vinegar. You can wash your clothes in boiling water. Actually, cold water.

[Amy]

I have to get like. What is that stuff for babies? Like, drift. What? I just see it at the grocery store. It's got a baby on it, so I figure it's gentle.

[Kat]

What is it?

[Amy]

Drift.

[Kat]

I've never heard that.

[Amy]

I keep saying it.

[Kat]

Wash in clothes.

[Amy]

I think it's baby clothes. Wash for babies.

[Kat]

Baby clothes wash. Baby laundry detergent.

[Amy]

Yes, that's what it's called. I don't know. Maybe it's not. I just feel like I've seen drift and it has a baby on it.

[Kat]

What are you saying?

[Amy]

Drift or drift D R E F T Draft?

[Kat]

Drift.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Kat]

I thought you were like, I'm seeing something.

[Amy]

I know that you have an article or something that you're going to go over some things. Maybe while you do that, I'm going.

[Kat]

To look up what drift is. Okay, Well, I have.

[Amy]

Oh, but hold on. We didn't finish the email. So, Natalie, we were talking about the happy light.

[Kat]

Oh, well, you answered her question.

[Amy]

I did. Well, I was going to say I. I replied to her with the link and I'll link it in the show notes so that y'all can see if you are interested in a happy light and read the reviews and see if it's something that you think might work for you, because I do.

[Kat]

Is Happy Light a brand or is it, like, just what those kind of lights are called? And you can get it from, like, Amazon.

[Amy]

You can probably get any kind of light that has the same function. Happy light is the brand. So you could even click on it just to get there and scroll through and find a better one. I feel like I tried to find the best happy light, and I can't remember if I bought that because someone else had recommended that specific brand and.

[Kat]

Shine on your body or you have to have it on.

[Amy]

You can just have it on, like, while you're doing things, like, if you're sitting at your desk, you can have your happy light on.

We talk sports, but we talk pop culture and music and a little bit of everything because we got lots to say. I. I texted you and you texted me back. Now, I don't know if you have the update, but, like, all the little thumbs up and heart and stuff, like, it's all colored. They changed it and the heart's a little pink. It felt like I told you I loved you. I'm gonna be honest, it was a little pink.

[Amy]

There was something sentimental. When you. When you send it, you're like, do I send the heart now?

[Bobby Bones]

I don't like the color edition.

[Amy]

It's extremely pink.

[Bobby Bones]

Listen to Lots to say with Bobby Bones and Matt Castle on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcast, or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Amy]

Cat, take it away.

[Kat]

Okay, I have five habits of the successful. And this is from medium.com like the successful, it's in capital. The successful. Okay, it's article by Alex Mathers from medium.com so I'm gonna go over these five, and you can tell me if you agree and maybe if you do them, if you want to be part of the successful. So the first one is they spend less time ruminating on setbacks. Most people make their lives far harder than it needs to be by spending considerable chunks of time in their thoughts. This won't bring the intended benefits. In fact, we make ourselves feel considerably worse through worry. This destroys our focus and the performance needed for taking action and making an impact. Train yourself to recover from setbacks by getting back into motion quickly.

[Amy]

Nice.

[Kat]

Do you feel like you ruminate on setbacks?

[Amy]

Sometimes I do, but I try to move past.

[Kat]

Depends on what it is. Yeah. Okay. Two is consume what few consume. I really like this one. If you're reading what 95% of your colleagues or peers are reading, you're doing the opposite of differentiation. This applies to experiences too. Being and thinking more like anyone else makes it harder to compete and stand out. Read and consume what most others are not. Success isn't about fitting in. You want to do everything you can to bring value in a way that no one else can match.

[Amy]

I like that.

[Kat]

I really like that.

[Amy]

Challenge accepted.

[Kat]

Because I feel like a lot of the things that. Which sometimes that's for a good reason. Like you're reading a book that somebody recommends or somebody does this so you feel like you have to do that. But this is saying if you're successful, you're actually not looking at what other people are doing. You're reading and consuming what interests you. Number three, they're provocative. Those who go far rarely set out to be liked by everyone. Oh, this is tough. They prioritize creating polarity in their audience. This means that many people who come across what they share will dislike what they stand for. This also means that over time they collect a group of very highly loyal supporters. This is hard.

[Amy]

Very.

[Kat]

I could talk about this idea for hours and maybe we'll save it for another day. But that's what you see, like on social media. Like the people with a lot of followers. Like they have people that hate them and they have people that like, love them.

[Amy]

Oh, I think that would be an interesting episode. If we want to do like a deep dive into that particular thing, we could do that.

[Kat]

Number four, work when others are chilling. Successful people often have a powerful purpose that makes it a no brainer for them to turn down invites and offers from others to stop working so hard and come join us.

[Amy]

I don't like this one.

[Kat]

I don't like that one. No, I have like an adverse reaction to that in my body as I was reading it.

[Amy]

Do less. But I mean, I guess depending on where you want to go, what type of success you want, there may be some years that take more grinding. Like when you were opening your own practice. You had to make sacrifices.

[Kat]

Yeah. When I look back, I was talking about this other day with Patrick that a couple years before I met him, I don't know that we would have worked out because all I wanted to do is work.

[Amy]

And now all you want to do is chill.

[Kat]

Yeah, all I want to do is chill. Okay, number five. This is the last one. They are problem centric. Successful people don't become successful by avoiding problems. Problem avoidance and comfort seeking is for the general masses who are satisfied with the vanilla existence.

[Amy]

Vanilla? We're not French vanilla. We're not.

[Kat]

We're.

[Amy]

We're not. We're not just playing vanilla. We're French. French vanilla.

[Kat]

So, yeah, we are the successful, which.

[Amy]

That's a reference to a previous episode. But our loyal followers know.

[Kat]

They get it.

[Amy]

They get it. If they're here, they're loyal.

[Kat]

A picture of somebody crawling up a wall like a cat.

[Amy]

That was my sister. I need to find that photo and I need to tell her. Christy, do I have your permission to post this or. You should post it and I'll repost you because people need to know. So draft. You know the detergent? Yeah, it is for babies at draft. Safety comes first and it never stops.

[Kat]

So it's non hyperallergenic? No.

[Amy]

I don't know.

[Kat]

It says, so we should wash our clothes in that.

[Amy]

I mean. No, I think this is for if you're a baby. I'm not sure, but I was just making a joke about that. Maybe I need, like, unscented drift because I'm like a baby. I'm very sensitive or something's going on with my skin and you have no immune system. And then I wasn't sure if it was actually drift, so that's why I wanted to look it up while you were doing that.

[Kat]

I never heard of that.

[Amy]

What? Now that you've heard of it?

[Kat]

I feel like I'm gonna see it everywhere.

[Amy]

You're gonna. Not everywhere, but probably on the detergent aisle at the grocery store.

[Kat]

Everywhere I go, all I'm gonna see is drift.

[Amy]

Yes, you're definitely gonna see it now because there's a baby on the bottle.

[Kat]

Well, maybe I don't look at it because I've never thought to buy baby detergent. That makes sense.

[Amy]

We need.

[Kat]

Okay, well, I don't know. I have no more words.

[Amy]

Yeah, so there's baby detergent. For baby skin problems, I need adult detergent. You have baby skin problems? Yeah, I have, like, adult eczema, maybe. If any of you out there are having similar issues. Like, what is your go to detergent? Tell me all your tips and tricks, because there are a lot of detergents that I love, actually.

[Kat]

Fabric softener.

[Amy]

I think I'm gonna get the wool balls.

[Kat]

That's your vinegar. No, the fabric softener is dryer sheet.

[Amy]

You're right.

[Kat]

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

[Amy]

I forgot. I'm gonna keep using vinegar.

[Kat]

Okay. Have you tried it yet?

[Amy]

It's way cheaper than, you know, vinegar. It's like, you know, on my Big Fat Greek Wedding, like, Windex solves everything. Yeah, I feel like distilled white vinegar might solve a lot of things. I'll put together a list. That'll be my deep dive.

[Kat]

Okay. As you're saying that, I can think of one thing it does. It gets stains out of rugs.

[Amy]

Yeah. It gets smells out of.

[Kat]

But no, it doesn't, because it smells.

[Amy]

Trust me. It gets pee smell out.

[Kat]

But then. Are you smelling vinegar? Did you watch your clothes?

[Amy]

No, but I have people in my life that peed and it's gotten the smell out. So that's, you know, I feel like white vinegar for that. I feel like it clean certain things. I just feel like I'm going to start using white vinegar more for things.

[Kat]

Okay.

[Amy]

I don't know the long list of what it's going to do, but you just wait. I will update you every time you.

[Kat]

Use it for something. You have to put it on a note. Okay.

[Amy]

Yeah. All right, Cat, where can people find.

[Kat]

You on Instagram at.

[Amy]
