Michael Overlie:

Hello, my friend. Welcome back to the dogs and men podcast. I am glad you're here. This is the show where you learn to let your dog lead. Lead you back to love

Michael Overlie:

look what's become. Oh, hey, guys, I know. I'm a dork. I can't help it. I love doing that beginning of the show. So, hello. Thank you for coming back. Glad you're here. You guys are right on time. No, I mean, that's that's the show right on time. That's episode. What does that look like? What does even mean right on time? Is it universe directed you here right now to listen to this episode? Is no matter where you are in your life, you are exactly where you're supposed to be. I like that one. Let's go with that. What's that mean for you? What's it mean for your dog? Your dog is always on time. She never noticed that. No matter what's going on your dog is there. They're present right on time. They don't care about whatever else is going on. They're going to do what they need to do right then. And right there. So why can't you? Does it feel like you're missing something? Do you feel like you're behind on something? Are you comparing your progress and life at work or whatever and your relationship to somebody else's? That doesn't work, guys, you know, try it. See how it feels. doesn't feel very good. There's always going to be someone bigger, more money, faster car, fancier house. And again, that stuff's not important. It really isn't. We were raised to believe that here in this country anyway, you know, the American Dream thing. And we pursue that we push for this thing that's, you know, eventually unobtainable, because it's somebody else's dream. Wherever you are in your life, you were right on time. Okay. If your dogs there, Karen asked him to say, hey, fluffy, am I on time am I run on time, your dog will not smile, wag their tail, maybe turn your ears a little bit. But it's true. You are right where you're supposed to be. This is a really tough concept for me to grasp. When I was not even that much younger. I figured I could make anything happen. I figured I could do whatever it was that I wanted to accomplish. And a lot of times didn't work out for me very well. But I kept pushing, I would push and force and make really crappy and shitty decisions. Now I can flow a little bit. And I don't have to push as much. And things happen much more simply, for me, doesn't mean easy, right? But much more simply in with a lot less strife and struggle. Home. It's hard being patient though, that that's, that's one of the things Indigo teaches me right now is I call extreme patience. So for us, in this culture, in this society, you know, the amount of stimulation we receive every day, we're used to getting things immediately. We're used to meeting our needs for you know, approval I get on Facebook, how many likes did you get from that comment, Instagram, whatever it is, these things that actually take us further further from ourselves. Or we're constantly seeking someone else's attention and approval to inform us of what our days going to be like and if we don't receive what we thought we should have received. And we feel crummy about it. Oh, you know, so and so. So phony how can they get this? I mean, what are you trying to do to yourself? Why do you want to be somebody else? Let's get back to time. How much time do you think you have on this planet? Like, from here to whenever? are you assuming you're going to live to be 100? Are you going to live to 75 like your grandfather did I mean what is that? What it what is time look like for you? Why are you in such a rush to get somewhere else

Michael Overlie:

and All, we're all going to die, guys, right? Everybody is going to die. No one gets out of this life alive, you're going to die, your dogs gonna die your parents if they haven't already. Everybody dies. Yet, we run around, like we have our heads cut off trying to avoid that thing, trying to avoid discomfort trying to avoid pain, well, things are still going to happen, life is still going to continue to come in, it's going to come at you sometimes full force. So how can you meet that? How can you take that on, in a better way? Right in a way where you can show up as more compassionate and loving? And yes, powerful. So we have a disk disagreement, I would say in this country about what power means. And it's not the big biceps in the large caliber rifle. And whatever it is, we were told before, it's not a large military, that's not power. That's not power. Love is power, guys. Love is power. Look back at your dog. What kind of power does that animal hold over you? Right? You have a crappy day, you walk in the door, instantly, instantly. You get love from that dog? Right? You get something that you're not able to give yourself. You get peace. Your energy softens a little bit, you get this other being who wants nothing more than to just be with you. What does that do for you? I'll tell you, it does for me makes me feel fucking fantastic. I feel on top of the world. It's like oh my god, somebody who just loves me no matter what. So, again, we've talked about this before, why can't I get it to myself? Well, maybe you're a little better at it now. Maybe you're a little better at it than you were five years ago. Maybe you're worse at it. That doesn't matter. Because either way, right on time. What about your job? You're right on time there too. Doesn't mean you like what you're doing. But you are exactly where you're supposed to be based on the things that have happened in your life so far, and the decisions you've made. So is it time for something else? I can't tell you whether it is or not, that's for you to figure out. But if it is, then let's do it. Man, let's let's figure out a way to create something else for you. What do you want to actually create in your life? You know, your preferences can change, your desires can change. All of these things can change. You can change your mind you have the right to change your mind at any time. You know, you don't have to stay stuck in somebody else's guilt trip. What do you want? I mean, what really gets you freakin fired up? Right? If money was no issue, what would you do? Period? Is there a way to make a sustainable living doing that? Don't know, try it gives a shit. You know, maybe it works out? Maybe it doesn't. I've tried so many ventures that didn't work out. And that's okay. Because they brought me to where I'm at now. So I'm right on time. Doesn't matter what I've done before I am at where I am at. I accept that. Do I still have cravings or wish that, you know, kinda wishes further along in this or, or, you know, had a cabin in the mountains or whatever it is? Sure. And that's okay. You can still desire things, but to beat yourself up over not having that. You know, because what's his name from high school is making all this money and you think that that's a measure of what a man is? Come on. We can do better. We can do a whole lot better. All right. So where are you right now? Where are you in your life? In your relationships, whether it's with a partner, spouse or your parents, your work relationships? What is your job? Like? Is it just a job? Or is there something that you feel really good doing? If that's the case, bad at and good for you?

Michael Overlie:

Is there something you really feel like you're missing? We started off with that, and that's an important point. Why is there this sense of lack in your life? All right. What is that about for you? Maybe you don't know. That's okay. But it's worth getting into. It's worth discovering what's underneath that we all have things that we're not comfortable with. So, if you want to get rid of the discomfort, find out what's underneath it. How's that sound? Help. It's about time for me to get going. I'm right on time. You guys are right on time. Go scratch that dog. Grab the leash and out for a walk. Talk to you soon. Love you. I want you to sit just for a minute.
