too usual in fracking was the big thing, you know, all the oil and shale oil. I learned about that shale oil when I was going to school. What do you use it for? Yeah, we can put the microwave on the ground and switch on the oil a lot, but it's just suckin' out. We never talked about it at that time. It's a new dawn. The one thing that we really want to happen today, we don't want just speakers up here blasting out at you. We'd like you to mingle among the people in the crowd and see if you can find somebody who might have similar ideas, different ideas, and ways to address the climate. That's on a death spiral for lack of a better word. We all need to get involved now when, if not us who, if not here where. So let's do it. Thank you. Next up is Rebecca White. So incredible to see such a community of people. So we're small. I feel like we're very mighty today. I'm wearing a couple hats. I work for the Solar Company Sun Common as a community organizer, and I'm coming to you from the Upper Valley. So I know we've got a little contingent at least in the front of some Upper Valley folks. The other two are state representative for the Windsor 4-2 District. Cox, who is also running in the Upper Valley. The big thing I wanted to talk about today was a feeling that I've had over the last, I don't know, let's say since about an individual or my small community can do to make a difference. And we can make change. And we found that it went in a small town having the ability of people who cares and is dedicated. Thank you much. Also in Plainfield, whenever you pass the resolution that Jayal was talking about, you'll find that you have some credibility when the resolution passes with no nays at all. Then when you come to the Select Board say, well, we've got a resolution here that says we could do this. This past week we met with the Twin Field Union School Board, and they have decided that they're going to proceed with their weatherization considerations, as well as looking at solar for the school. So you can make a difference. It's a little small community gathering. Put it together, get the ideas that the ones that are good and are the most important and go ahead boldly. This is Rachel. I'm a nurse at UVM Medical Center. We're here today to collect signatures in support of quality ranking. It's a strike. This is our first year that we have had a strike. It is directly related to what's been happening at the bargaining table and unfair labor practices that the hospital has engaged in. They have also increased executive compensation to the highest levels ever. We have the highest paid CEO in the state of Vermont. The top two executives at the hospital together last year made $3 million, and they are quarreling with us about raising the minimum wage at the hospital for all staff to $15 an hour. And, you know, they say that they really want to do that by 2020, but they will not provide us any proof. And they will not agree to a third party to make sure that that happens, among many other things. We have a list of about 10 to 12 items that we're still bargaining about. Contracts so that we can have a safe staffing level so that we can recruit and retain nurses to provide our community with the best care possible. And so therefore our community can provide our earth with the best care possible. So we are really, it's all one big continuum of care. So we're collecting signatures for the vote of about provide 20,000 signatures at the Board of Trustees meeting on the 20th of September. Next up is Bryce from Montpelier and Lauren Harrell from Vermont Conservation Voters. Hi, everyone. My name is Bryce. I'm a clinical herbal student at Vermont Center for Integrative Herbalism. I'm passionate about kind of the emotional experience and environmental destruction and just honor that that is really big and real for a lot of people. I have an event that I would like to share with you all that is addressing and working with some of those feelings of grief and overwhelm and sadness and fear. It's happening next weekend. It's called Tending the Web, a Retreat on Grief and Gratitude. Changemakers, cultural workers and caregivers to process our grief for the state of the world in order to be more present, engaged and powerful forces for change. This workshop will be next Sunday, September, based in Joanna Macy's work, the work that reconnects. It will be facilitated by Abigail Singer who's coming to us from Oregon. It's also the Savoy Theater, 6 p.m. It's Joanna Macy's film, Joanna Macy's documentary. And also at my spray is some things if you're feeling overwhelmed, if you're feeling sad or angry or whatever it is, just some things to help with that experience. Next I'd like to introduce Lauren Harrell from the Vermont Conservation Voters and just letting you know that she is one of our sponsors today, along with Ben and Jerry's and the 7th generation and Vermont Natural Resources Council who helped out with the funding for the liability insurance for today. So thanks a lot for coming everybody and I give you Lauren. And you all pushing and working to get those people elected? Can push us over the end? So thank you to all my colleagues who showed up today. We have been advocating passionately as a company for over 30 years to address the climate crisis. But we know that we cannot do it alone. We know that even if we reduce our emissions on our own, it's not going to have the biggest impact. The biggest impact is going to come from systemic solutions, systemic solutions that can come from all of us working together to create a cleaner, healthier, brighter future, moving away from the use of dirty fossil fuels and towards clean renewable energy. So I'm really proud to be here. Speaking on behalf of our company and the next seven generations to make a commitment to help push us towards a clean renewable future and transition not just our beautiful state towards clean renewable energy but to be working with states and cities across the country towards a brighter future for all of us. Thank you. Hey everybody, I'm Jill Wilcox and I'm from Sharon, Vermont and I'm a part of an organization called TRAC, Two Rivers Action Coalition and we are advocating for legislative change on climate. I signed up to be to run for state representative in the progressive party in Windsor Orange too because I want to push the climate agenda and I don't think we're making strong enough or bold enough moves on climate. What got me interested in climate issues was in 2011 I think it was I was living in the same house I'd owned for 20 years and it's at 1500 feet so I used to go around bragging that I would never have to get flood insurance.  Well, when Irene came, water came running down my property, I'm on a slight hill, came running down so fast that it flooded out all the culverts. Well, I'm in my driveway. So I was on dialysis at the time. Don't get dialysis, you have about three days to live. So I had to be rescued by the fire department taken down to Hartford to the high school gym and in the red cross shell there with people I felt guilty because I had my home I just couldn't get out of it but I was there with people with really tragic stories of their homes being totally washed away by Irene get involved myself by climate agenda. So that's why I'm here today. That's why I joined Track Action Coalition and that's why I'm running for state representative today to stay strong on climate issues and to do all the advocacy you can and to help get a veto-proof majority in the legislature so we can override the governor who's taken no action on climate. All right, that does it for our formal conversations here today and I hope that you will continue the conversation with people who are at the tables showed up to talk about different things and maybe you can find somewhere where you can align put in some volunteer time and let's get this thing rolling. I want to remind you that Senator Vermont Climate Action is the prime sponsor along with 350 Vermont of the event today but do get involved it's too late to just sit there and do nothing about it get your neighbors involved do something about it and think about choices as you go through the world and go through your life it could make a difference into what car you buy it could make a difference where you buy your food it could make a difference where you get your energy from and it can make a big difference as to who you put down on the ballot when you vote so go for it and if anybody else feels inspired to speak to the crowd let me know and we can do a little bit more for you thank you for coming enjoy your picnic and do stay in touch bye bye the answer to that is yes we need to start acting on the scientists in the room to talk about the actual science which right now is just drowned out by noise I actually want to give the microphone to two of our upcoming you know there's a lot of rhetoric in the meat climate science it's a hoax the success of political movements and social movements a key to the part of that of a success rather is diversity and I can see all around me different ways to be an activist about climate change whether it's being kidding yourself about climate science this movement has a lot of different facets and the key underpinning of all of that is to simply talk about climate change bring it to people's awareness whether they disagree with you or not you need to discuss this because it's happening right now and you know we needed to act probably becoming scientists though on a national level to save science in this country to save open source data in this country and just going into the atmospheric sciences program I've realized that the concern for climate change has to begin here or somewhere and it starts with one person one person needs to talk about it in order to create a conversation this conversation doesn't just start with one group of people it's the whole world this involves everyone so the more people that get involved the better we just need to stop the global warming all the buzz again my name is Chris Bray I have the honor and privilege of serving as the chair of the senate natural resources energy committee to be in the state of Vermont I have a citizens legislature and the thing that drives that legislature and helps us do our best work is to be engaged with all of you so no matter what 180 people we ever elect the quality of our work outside the building the plea I make regularly is talking to your legislators help bring what you know and what you care about to the state house so that we can make progress sometimes I share a sense of a sense of frustration from the sort of I would say the community of caring people that are here that we're not making more progress faster I share that a sense of frustration as well the wheels turn a little slowly you know we want but we do it through changing the laws that then compel the agency of natural resources or agency of agriculture or the PUC to do the things we want to get done so I would ask people to keep on doing all the street work activist work you're doing engage your legislators and then when we do have changing legislation like our national our nation leading renewable energy standard or our nation leading efficiency Vermont program there's a long list but we need to keep pushing and legislators in the building to your help in terms of helping move bills and also bringing your expertise into the building so that we make progressive policies and see the change that we want day after day year after year out here in the state of Vermont so I thank you all for your work I hope you'll consider the legislators your partners and I look forward to talking with more of you today here thanks so much please feel free to come up in here what mother-up is about dealing with families in this time of climate change next up Jay Curley from Ben & Jerry's and after that George Plum speaking on sustainability thanks everyone it's an honor for us to be here we're really here to support all of you particularly that's important as is putting solar panels on your roof and making those little decisions but what we need much more than that is we need system changes we need changes right here in Montpelier we need changes down in DC and we can do that when we all get together and we bring our friends along this is George Plum I'm 81 probably the oldest speaker here if somebody else is older than me please come up and give me a hug afterwards representing any organization today although I am a sustainable population because early on I realized that population growth is the underlying cause for a sustainable population which recently changed its name to better than the Syracal a great environmental concern about global warming in 1988 nobody don't make Kippin publish The End of Nature 1988 and here we are 30 years later and things are just getting much worse I'm very concerned about global warming particularly because I have two grandchildren and I wonder if they're going to live as long as I have lived because things are happening just so abruptly and yes we need systems change but what we really need is people to change their lifestyles individual change to live more sustainably and simply and I've tried to do that much of my life when the first to drive an all-electric vehicle my leaf is over there when the first to install a solar rotating solar panel things that I'm most proud of and a jet plane once in my entire adult life for recreation purposes and that was just when we took my children to England only once in my adult life if there's anybody that can beat that record again come up and give me a hug please so we need to change our lifestyles and I've initiated a pledge to live more sustainably and simply and it's over there in the corner I hope you'll look at that eight point pledge and consider signing you're not obligated you've pledged to as much as your family will allow you to and your income will allow you to live more simply and sustainably so please come over there and take a look at the pledge at least and also pick up a copy of the wonderful green energy times I am the delivery volunteer delivery boy for the green energy times throughout all of Central Vermont deliver some 25 bundles all over Central Vermont great, great newsletter so I hope to see you over in the corner thank you it's an issue because when we have people who already care about that they need to do something introducing Sister Larian and I see that I am joining a chorus which makes me happy politicians saying when they start debating considering voting for Al Gore because I heard that he cared about the environment because the people who told him how to get elected told him leave that stuff out after you're elected to talk about it our fault it's our fault that these subjects are not being talked about one of us can do by raising questions school board not sure but I think creation that destroys its own habitat and that's kind of unbelievably scary we don't really need to but it is going to circle the sun for thousands of years just like Mars does what we need to be protecting is the human habitat next up is Tony these are matters that are important to all of us but I know most of you are already aware of what climate change is a little story about our affected by climate and that grew up pretty close to him he lives in the lower Shere one of the hottest areas the chief of the village and he looks after a big community of people it was raining for days it did not stop raining and my country started flooding dispersed the banks creating flash floods that left more than a million people displaced and we're looking at these people that are dependent on subsistence farming they became homeless and the state president of my country was forced to declare half of our country on disaster zone I was terrified because I couldn't get hold of my grandfather and his area was one of the areas that were declared the red zone and nobody was supposed to go there we do not have the privilege of having helicopters and rescue teams to go and rescue them but they were stranded there for weeks and because his house is on a higher ground most of the communities had to come and stay there for weeks with him and that's how they survived for the past few years floods have become a norm in my country now last year for the first time in history we were flooded in the city where I live in and I woke up one morning going to work and wondering why nobody was going to work that morning only to realize that 500 miles from my house the entire city had flooded and a lot of people were left homeless in just one night the rainy season starts again in November and nobody is sure of what's going to happen to us this year I'm Taona from Malawi and we are a landlocked country but I can't imagine how it is like for the other countries that are on the coast right now that Malawi is greenhouse gas emissions are very little it's minuscule especially children and women it's pushing people further into poverty there increases in temperature and longer dresses on more intense and concentrated rainfall which has led to droughts causing shorter growing seasons food shortages, hunger and spread of disease in my country the people are already in extreme poverty furthermore anything that worsens food insecurity is reliable to add both migration and poverty in Malawi climate change is a threat to economic growth long-term prosperity agriculture is a major contributor to the nation's gross domestic and foreign agricultural activities climate extremes and weather events severely erode conditions resulting food insecurity with significant impacts on the livelihoods of people living in the real areas so for you to come out today that's why I'm saying you should applaud yourself it's no better time for us to rise up if corporations are people person, legally change things and I say we because I'm guilty too constitutional amendment in Vermont that I think will change a lot of things and one of the things I think it will do will bring a lot of young people into Vermont because there are a lot of people out there taking care of the earth and taking care of it so besides which is marks the number 4 Vermont.com fossil fuel infrastructure pipeline that's native led and Karen's going to come up with any change or dollar bills or put your whole wallet in there so thank you very much and if you want to learn more about the pipeline fight come over and pick up the recent earth first journal thank you


So, if you just enter this link up here, you will come to this sheet sheet, we call it. It's a tools we have developed for EC going now through the workshop when copycode and see how you do the different configurations. Now before the workshops, we have this before the online sessions. So if you click on that one, you come to this page here that shows the introduction, a little bit short about how this tool is working and how you can navigate with these arrows down here, so you can easily navigate here. I think it's quite obvious how it works. So let's go here now. So as Chris said, you should have got the package for the workshop, including some wires here for connecting later on on the workshop here. You should have got the nuclear boards for the U575 and also you should have got an development kit or discovery kit that is called L562. And this one we will use later on for measuring the current consumption. You can also use an DMM multimeter with one micro and pulse resolution for this later on and so on. You should also got installed the cube MX, at least version 6.5.0, the cube IDE version 1.9, installed the cube U5 library package, the MCU package to the cube IDE. And also installed the cube monitor power program, version 1.1.1, so we can have a graph and see how the current consumption varies over time. There's also some links to virtual comport drivers, but I don't think you need that for Windows 10 users. I better have it there anyway. And also you need two micro USB cables. I hope you have that on your office as well. So in the homework you should install the cube MX. It's our configuration tool that we use for setting up the microcontroller for the application you will use. Download it, install it, and as well download and install the cube IDE. I hope it's been working fine for you. And as I said, install the cube library and that one we should as well look into the cube IDE how to integrate the U5 MCU package. And as you haven't seen it before, we have some animations here showing how to do it. I will as well open up the cube IDE here just to show you how it works. So when you open up, let's see, just put it down. When you open up cube IDE, you get first on the launcher that asks for your workspace. So you just enter your workspace place. And I have chosen here today the workshop 9th of June. And then you just launch that one. This can seem to be quite simple, but... And now I have some downloads going on here, but now it's starting up here. So here's my workspace. Let's see if we can organize this better here. And now I just shortly will show you this package where you find this. So if you go under Help in cube IDE and go down to Manage Embedded Software Packages, I get confused of these animations. Okay, so you just open up these windows where we have all the software packages managers here. And if you scroll down to U5, you will see if you open up the different packages that we do have. And for this workshop, we need this latest cube U5 MCU package. And I think actually this is the latest one, yeah, 1.1.0. So you just click here and then install. And then it will download and integrate the whole MCU package for the U5. That's quite clear, I think. If we go back now to the project, and let's see how we start a new project here, we have a little hands-on to just check that everything's working. You can start if you come to this screen. You can also have an icon here that says to start a new S1032 project. But from this point, you can also go find new open project, S1032 project. You click here and we initialize the target selector. And then this window shows up. And here we should now enter our part that we will use today. So it's S1032 U575 ZIT. And here you see you get two options, one without the Q in the end and one with the Q. And this is the Q means here actually the SMPS version for the Voltage regulator. So that one is we will use later on today. So we click on that one and I will click here. And now we're choosing that one, selecting that one, press next here. And now comes this window up here that you can give it a name. And here we can just write U5 test homework like this. And you see the location is what we choose from the beginning where the work space is. And we should also be aware that we don't enable the trust zone. We will not handle that today in this hands-on today. So leave this unticked this box here.  And now it starts to loading the U5 now for our new project. Take some time here. And here comes up some warnings about the iCache and the SMPS. But at this stage, we just press yes here. Skip that one. And now it comes up here, make it bigger. So here you can see now here's my workspace and some libraries and some drivers, some linker files. And this iC file that is actually the configuration file, this one. So here now we can just go into the clue. We have the pinout configuration. You can see all the pins around the MCU. You have the clock configuration. And here we can just check that we have four megahertz for the MSIS clock. So we have four megahertz there. We should now go back to pin configuration. And here we should now add our UART. Because this hands-on will just make some UART that's sending some message out on the UART to see that we are alive. Everything's working. So you can use these categories. I normally use these eight to set. It's quicker to find, in my opinion. And we go down to the USART. And we will pick the USART 1. And we click on that one. And here we will now configure our USART to be an asynchronous UART. And we will have no hardware flow. We will just check that we have the right settings. So I click here on the parameter settings down here. And I got the list here of the settings that is by default. So about rates, we should set 150 and 2. We should have eight bits and non-parted and one-stop it. And that's already defined. So that's good. We should also have a look to the right here. And here you can see, if I scroll a little bit, I can zoom in here. That by default, it has chosen the USART Rx pin to PA 10. PA 10, sorry, PA 10. And the Tx to PA 9 pin. And that is the one we will use. We will also check that we don't have any DMA settings because we will not use that in the simple hands-on. So we'll just check that, OK, this looks good. And as well, we will not use the interrupts for the USART at this hands-on. And that is antic to this box here. That's fine. So let's go on. Now I'm actually on the slide 5 in the cheat sheet, if you're wondering. Another thing we should also do, we should have a look into the eye cache settings. And we should change this from disabled to one of these two. But I choose the one way because we will use that later on for the direct mapped cache. And we select that. And we are ready with all the configurations right now. So we go over to the product manager tab here. And here you see the name we named this product to, has come into this field here. We have the product location here. We have the cube IDE by default. Since we work in this too, this by default here. So we are ready for that. And now we will just generate some files. So we're using this configuration tool code generator. And that's this with a gearsync sign icon. So this one, I just press that one. And it starts to generating. And I pop up here a warning that we have not enabled the S&PS, but we are aware of that. So yes, OK. And now you see that it's updating the structure here with the files. So now we have got the new files already. We have new product here. And now we have like a base setup here. You can go into the main. I will just double check and close that one. I will close this one as well to make it more clear. So I go into main.c file here. So we are in our project here. The other parts I have before I have closed, so they not will confuse us. But we have this product active here. I go into the main.c file.  Pick that up again. Jump to slide number five. We are done all the steps here. Scroll down here. Because I need to copy here where I am now. So we will code now. We will make a buffer with the text here. And for that, there is a button here called Copy Code, this blue button. And that will copy this line into the buffer here in the windows. And now I can go to the right line position here. And for that definition, we should put it up here. Under use of code begin, private variables, we paste control v. So now I have pasted in this buffer with this coded text message in here. So now we have the buffer. And next, we will also go back to there. Cheat sheet. And now we also need to transmit this text buffer. And here we have the function for that, the whole function you were transmit. We take a copy code of that one as well. And go back to main.c file. And this we will now put in around line 98. Use the code begin number two here. So we put it here before the one loop. And just mark this line and then control v, paste it in. And now we have the you are transmit function called in our main.c. And that's it. So now let's compile our project. Hopefully it will go through. Yes, now there's no warnings. Fine. And now we should have connected the board, the U5 board. We had up here. Very first one in the background here. But here we have the board. Can just show you this picture here. So on the nuclear board for U5, we have in one. And there's the link version three part. That's communicating to the target MCU, which in our case is the U5. There is some LEDs as well here that we used during the day. And I can see some shemaites here for the buttons and how it's connected for the LEDs. So just for your information. So now when we have done that, we have compiled. And now we should debug. So then we press this bug icon here. Start debugging. And then we come to this configuration. And there's nothing to change. There's different tabs here. We will go in here later on in the hands-on. But we just press OK here. And now it should start to flash down the debugger version of this project to the board. And here we go. So with first instruction in main, it's the whole init function. So we will start there. But before we do anything else, before we're starting the program, we should now either use an external terminal program, or we can use the integrated command shell console. You can just click on this one here. You go to the window here. And I open up this remote connection. You choose here from the first one, the serial port. And then you press new connection name. You press new here to connect to which serial comport you will have. And in my case, I think it's comport9 is this. So I just give a name, comport9, and finish, and OK. And here you see, now we have already starting up the code once. So it's already running here. So if you run again, you will see the text home exercise will show up here. And also, if you press the reset button on the nuclear board, you have the same effect. So the problem is running now in the U5 board. Standing out on the USR1, it's the method home work exercise.


Alright guys, it's Andy. This is going to be part two of how to avoid burnout in car sales. If you haven't watched the first part of this video, I'll put a link down in the description below so you can go back and watch it. But this is going to be the second half, and that's why I divided these so that I don't take up too much of your time on how to avoid burnout in a car dealership. You're going to love these. So I'm going to finish up here on number six through number 10. This right here is something that you want to watch.  I'm going to give up. Guys, we don't tolerate the quitting mind. You're in the best business in the world. The auto industry is amazing. We're going to start with number six here. Number six is going to be not believing in yourself. So look, let's go back to this. How to avoid burnout in a car sales position. Number one, not believing in yourself will get you the burned out the fastest way possible. So what do you have to do? How do you believe in yourself? Well, number one, you have to have self love. You literally have to make sure that you're not working so much that you've forgotten about taking care of yourself. Believing in yourself is everything. And let me tell you this.  If you're in a spot where you're like, man, Andy, literally my headspace, like, I don't know what's going on. Like I'm discouraged. I got, you know, like doubt, you know, low self limiting beliefs, dude, there's a number on the screen below. Shoot me a text message. I'll get you out of that funk. I promise you. Okay. So not believing in yourself will burn yourself out. If that's you, shoot me a text message. I'll help you get out of it. All right. So number seven, let's go into having the right mentor. Man, whoa, that's freaking it. When I was younger, I didn't have a mentor like me. And what I mean by that, I understand the ins and outs of the car business completely. I get it. I know exactly what you go through. You're putting in 60 hours a week. Mom is at home. You know what I'm saying? Maybe you're, you're even a woman, your husband's at home.  We're learning to live without you. I get it.   You don't have that time with your family. Look, I'm going to share something with you. I teach sales pro every day how to triple their income, how to make three times more than what they're making now in less time. Okay. You got to have the right mentor. The right mentor needs to tell you that, look, man, you don't live to work. You work so you can live. Okay. I want you to love your job. I want you to be the best at it. I want you to break every record. I want you to outwork everybody, but also want you to have a healthy balance of life. If you need the right mentor, you shoot me a text message. I'll take you under my wing. I'll help you. Okay. This is a brotherhood. This is a sisterhood. I got your back forever. Okay. Lack of growth, not developing new skill underlined in this word. It says new. Okay. You have to develop new skill constantly. Okay. The guy that put a sign on his desk that says, Hey, I stopped learning a long time ago. He gets burned out. The person that goes in and they got the wrong training and they're not learning new skill that actually works in today's times, guess what? You're going to get burned out. Make sure that you don't have that lack of growth. You have to be getting 10% better every single week and every day while you're at work, you have to get better, but get at least 10% better every single week at work. All right. Number nine, this, this is huge. This could maybe be the top number one out of all of them that I see that just screws people up because if I teach you the skill and you got the skill to go make a whole bunch of money, that's great.  Okay. What that is, is this.  So many people, they've got an issue here. They don't feel grateful. Listen, if you don't own your head space, someone else will. Someone's going to get ahold of you. You want to get spun out? Guess what? Let someone else change your thinking.  You are incredible. You're physically in your zone, in your space, you know exactly what you want to do. You feel grateful about life. And guess what? You don't let anybody get in here. And by the way, if you don't control your mind, also your mind will control you. A lot of this is fake stuff that we create in our head. You're watching all these other people on Instagram, Facebook, and this and that. They look like they're having the best life. They don't have problems.   It's a figment of your imagination that you can't make it, you know, I'm the victim. Don't do that, okay? If you've got an issue with this, text me. I can teach you how to get out of it very fast. I have videos made to help you get out of that. Plus, I'll get on the phone with you. I'll help you. Number 10, let's talk about this last one. And I mean this when I say this. I mean this with all of my heart. I swear, exercise for real. Exercise, man. You guys have got to exercise. Look, after work, so I had to deal when I sold cars.  The reason why is number one, I hated running. Hated it.  But I wanted to do the stuff that sucked, and I wanted to do the stuff that I hated to do, but it also kept me in shape if I didn't hit a goal. So maybe your goal would be like, if I don't sell a car every day at work, I'm going to go home and run one mile, okay? And by the way, you pay the rent so you don't want to go run, so you make sure you sell the car. But also secondly, you don't lie to yourself, so if you don't sell the car, you go home. You put your shoes on right when you get in the house, and you go for a run. When you go for the run, you actually get your metabolism working. You become healthy. The next day, you don't want to eat cheeseburgers at work because you ran the night before. You feel better about yourself. Stress rolls into all areas of your life. And by the way, stress kills people, okay? There's something called cortisol that builds up in your body, and that's something that stress creates. And when you work out, it breaks down cortisol so you stay healthy and you feel great. So number 10, you want to avoid burnout? Go exercise, please. Start something. And by the way, be accountable for yourself.  You can become in great shape, okay? But more importantly, you can live a long time, have your best life. Like I said, break up cortisol, not get stressed out, and then crush it, okay? So these are ways to avoid burnout. I appreciate you. You guys keep up the training, and I'll see you soon. Hey guys, number one, thank you so much for watching the entire video. You guys are awesome. I'm grateful for you. If it wasn't for you, I wouldn't have my training program, so I thank you, I thank you, and I thank you. I got three things for you real quick. Number one, shoot me a text message. If I haven't met you, I would love to. My phone number is<PHONE_NUMBER>. Shoot me a text. I'd love to meet you. Secondly, go to Facebook. Join Andy Elliott Car Cells Nation. That's Andy Elliott Car Cells Nation, one of the best Facebook groups in the world, hands down for automotive sales training. And then lastly, I've got over 500 videos on YouTube, guys. Keep up the training, keep watching the videos, and crush it.


The Legend of the Great Pyramid Part 5, Edgar Cayce, Giza. The history of civilization, the lost civilization, described by Edgar Cayce of the Atlantean civilization, is preserved in three great halls of records at various intervals in the Earth's landmass, and front of the Sphinx is one of these halls and a transcript of Cayce's vision reveals the following. In an induced state, the late great Edgar Cayce was asked, given detail what the sealed room at Giza contains. His reply was as follows, A record of Atlantis from the beginning of that period when the spirit took form and began an encasement of the land, and the development of the people throughout their existence at this location. With the record of the first destruction and what took place in the land, with the record of the state of the people and their activities elsewhere, with the record of the meetings of all nations. For the activities that became necessary with the final destruction of Atlantis and the building of the Pyramid of Intention, the Great Pyramid with whom, what or where would come, the opening of the records that are copies from the sunken Atlantean Empire. For the change coming from the Earth, it must rise again. This sealed chamber in position lies as the sun rises from the waters. The line of shadow falls between the halls of the great Sphinx of Giza that was later tasked with guarding this chamber but may not be entered by the connecting chambers within the Sphinx itself or the right hall until the right times has been fulfilled when the changes must be active in the sphere of man's experiences and struggles. It is between the Sphinx and the Nile. These transcripts are suggesting that whoever opens the lost hidden vault in the chamber of records, the name of that person is already written. This is the prophecy that Edgar Cayce unleashed. If we look back at the history books regarding this prophecy then we do find curious connections. The 4th century philosopher Lamplicus for example suggests that the Sphinx serves as an entrance point to sacred corridors of a lost people. This philosopher suggests that the chamber either in or near the Sphinx contained inscriptions and records that are the very foundations of all knowledge, including the unlearned and unknown. Some suggest the secret chamber is in fact the Great Pyramid as asserted by the Arabs as historical fact that the Great Pyramid is the chamber of knowledge. Built to withstand the Cataclysm 12,500 years ago, the Younger Dryas Impact Event. The mystery of ancient Giza and what the pyramids are is the subject of the most mind-boggling array of theories ever established. The lost civilization that built these things knew they were leaving a message. The answer it seems is in the very foundation upon which these pyramids lay. The mound in front of the Sphinx is curious. Perhaps some sort of frequency sound triggers the mechanism to open the locked chamber. Johannes Helfrich the artist who created this abomination of the ancient wonder suggests that he encountered a secret passage there in 1579. He says in his travel log that you can enter this passage and project your voice as if you were the Sphinx itself. Maybe this is what happened when the Sphinx spoke to Thothmos perhaps a priest hid in the secret chamber and instructed him to recover the monument in Pharaoh's likeness. But perhaps this chamber can also generate a frequency that would literally see the chamber of records awake from the slumber in the sands of time. The mound in front of the Sphinx is 200 yards from the Sphinx face. The Great Pyramid is the stuff of legend. Nothing at all is out of the question as to what it may be. The late great Edgar Cayce suggested it is older than 10,500 years old at the most delayed estimate possible. Cayce was an intellect he was brilliant. Playing upon emotions he would diagnose underlying illnesses to the would-be believer. His charm it seemed was part of the trick. That is, until you realize he wasn't fooling you. He was predicting with accuracy the things he had no business knowing and for these accuracies he is renowned. In a semi-conscious state he would describe incredible things relating to Egypt. In particular the Great Sphinx. He tells us that the Sphinx and the Pyramids are remnants of a third world age, a time when the old age collapsed. He was adamant in his detail. Hall of records and passages in front of the right hall of the Sphinx. In fact he even foresaw an underground pyramid in front of the ancient monument. Cayce who died in 1945 saw that refugees from the lost empire of Atlantis buried their secrets in a hall of records under the Sphinx and that the hall would be discovered. This ties in with what the Arabs are saying about the Great Pyramid. Their legend maintains that the Great Pyramid was in fact a great vehicle of the past. An engine of humanity's brilliance. And at this place the secrets were stored to survive the collapse of the third wave of existence. Unfortunately that is now lost. Plundered and even stolen by would-be invaders who only had their mindset on wealth and riches. Our attention and hope therefore lies in the possibility of the Great Chamber of Vault of Records being unexplored in front of the Sphinx.  Someone had the idea to build a pyramid. Not only that, it seemed before they had done so that they also measured the earth before plunking this thing bang in the middle. The information maintained in the dimensions of this ancient monument has astounded our understanding today. What good reason did they have for undertaking the construction of a monument that confounds logical understanding? They are obviously reaching across time to tell us something, right? According to the Pyramid Odyssey in 1977, Stanford Research conducted acoustic surveys that revealed Edgar Cayce's predictions may be true. Chambers discovered on the Giza Plateau, including four shafts, linked by tunnels around the Sphinx, one of them dramatically under the right paw. Cayce's description suggests ancient records are located at this feature, though it has never been excavated. These results do suggest that there are chambers here yet to be found. Of course, we are only now relying on modern techniques like LIDAR to scan these anomalies where possible, but the fact that these results came 32 years after the life of Edgar Cayce is mind-boggling. He said that there are texts in a combination of old and newer writings, describing the newer text as Atlantean. The reemergence, the Atlanteans and the Sphinx, is but one of the three locations where these identical texts are stored on the earth. There is a mound in front of the Sphinx that has never been excavated. In 1935, news was breaking out across the world that a new city had been discovered. Incredibly, these headlines are now the subject of a falsified debate regarding the ancient wonders. The headline declared, a highly organized civilization had existed 4,000 years ago, now it seems the denial is rife of such discoveries. The Vantanone sketch of the Sphinx in 1798 depicts a man being pulled out of a hole in the Sphinx's head. A hole that was still there in the 1920s during aerial photography of the area. Efforts to study the monument had been blocked by the Egyptian authorities for now. The ancient beast still protects all that is lost and unknown. Also by the way, just thought we would mention that the 14-year restoration of the Step Pyramid is now finished. There were fears of a collapse after an earthquake in 1992, but it seems the engineers are now satisfied that it will maintain. The tourers strengthened the pyramid by filling in gaps in its six rectangular mastabas with stone blocks. The interior chamber and passages through the pyramid were also restored over 14 years of conservation and restoration. That is all for the moment. This was part 5 in our series, The Legend of the Great Pyramid. We will link the other parts in this series below for you to catch up on, so be sure to check that out and we will see you guys in the comments section below. Also remember to comment and as always guys, thank you for watching.


Hey, how do you feel about adding on to your dad's legacy? For me, he was like a figure over 90. I was like 87. For me, a dad's image is always my face. So when I heard that you were the son, that blew my mind. I was like, I had a million questions for you. How do you feel about creating your own legacy but also adding on to your dad's story? Yeah, well, that was a big thing for me kind of when I was starting wrestling. Because I'm obviously very proud of my dad and what he did and all that. But I never wanted to be Luke Perry's son in that sense. What I meant is I didn't want to be getting things that other people should be getting or that I don't deserve because of that. And so I kind of, I made a choice not to go under my real name and to, I mean, Jungle Boy is kind of as far away from Hollywood as you can get. You know, I don't talk, it's all that. So to be able to do that and be successful without that was really important to me.  Dad, that's pretty much all I've ever wanted. Thank you. I remember going up to visit my dad on the set of Riverdale and he was always kind of bitching about, oh, I got to work and all this. And I went up there and I saw the trailer. I was like, you coming here in this trailer? You get breakfast.   You got 50 bucks? That was two years ago. And there's a story of you saying that when you were seven, basically you told your dad that's what I wanted to do. Yeah. When I was a little, yeah, the first time I saw wrestling was with my dad and I kind of knew that's what I wanted to do. And I remember, I used to go out on my trampoline in my backyard with my sister. That's where I learned most of my moves. My parents weren't crazy about that. And I remember I was in fourth grade and my teacher got a call and he said, Jack, you need to go to the office. And everyone was like, ooh.  And I got my bag and I went to the office and my dad was there in the office. And he said, all right, come on, we're leaving. And he took me that day. It's my first ever wrestling lesson. I had to get out of school early, which was sick. And yeah, that was my first ever wrestling class. Was it a local thing? Yeah, there was a guy. His name was Rick Drazen. He was an old wrestler from the 80s. But he had a ring in his backyard. He rang classes. His backyard. Yeah. Yeah. Not like backyard wrestling. It was easier for him to have it in his yard. But yeah, my dad, my mom too, but they would take me every single week, pay 50 bucks for me to take a class. You know, they've been in the dirtiest warehouses all over Los Angeles. Shitty little bars and things watching me wrestle. So my family's always been super supportive. And I don't think I'd be here without them. Jack, have you made it clear to the promoters at UW that you don't want that association with dad that you want to make sure his promoters will obviously explain anything to get publicity? Yeah. With AEW, that's never been an issue. That was more of a thing coming up in the independence. I had a lot of people tell me that, like my character was too silly for their show. And a lot of people said, we want you to be yourself and use your name. And I knew what that meant. So it was really important to me to come up and get here without it. Obviously, I'm not going to just start going by that now. But, you know, it's not a secret. I'm not trying to hide it from people. It's just, I don't want that to be the first prefix of my name, you know? But it is what it is. I'm proud of him and everything he's done. So, you know. Are there lessons that you took from dad? Yeah. Acting? Oh, no. No. You know, he just kind of... Gleaned things from him? Yeah, there's... Have you seen this guy for a whole life? Oh, no. That's the worst. Natural. I was kind of saying this over there. The main thing, I guess, I would say my dad taught me, is he always told me, he's like, be as nice as you can to everyone that you can. And that was something I was really proud of with my dad. Because, you know, seeing other things, some people are not nice as you. With people who are fortunate enough to be successful in what they love to do, there's no reason not to be nice. We're literally here living our dream.


Hi friends, welcome back to my channel and welcome back to my vlog on the Wendy Plan. So I'm going to be giving the Wendy Plan a 100% shot this next week to see if it jump-starts my weight loss, gives me better results on the scale. If you're not familiar with what the Wendy Plan is, I'm going to link it down in the description box, the calculator. And basically what it does is it jumbles up your points throughout the week.  And that is the number of points that you are to be eating each day. So I wanted to share my week with you guys. I'm going to show you what I eat, kind of give you my thoughts and feelings on the Wendy Plan. So if you want to see this test in action, all you have to do is keep watching. So here's what I'm having for breakfast this morning. This is my meal prep. This is that breakfast casserole. It is so incredibly good. It is only five smart points for this huge serving of the casserole. This was in my meal prep video about a week ago. So I'll try to insert a picture here of the actual meal prep so you can find it easy, but it is super, super good. I'll actually be eating that meal prep throughout the entire day today. So that is part of my breakfast. And then I have a little baggie here of strawberries and blueberries. So that is five smart points. And then over here, I have the teamie boost. I love this tea. It is my very favorite. This is a vanilla matcha tea. It is so good. It has a little bit of peppermint, a little bit of sweetness from the matcha. So that is here in my tumbler. I'm going to let that steep a little bit, zero points for that. So my breakfast is five smart points total. If you're interested in picking up the teamie boost, I almost forgot to mention that I do have some discount codes. They're down in the description box or any teamie products in general. But I do really like the teamie boost. And as you know, I'm obsessed with the oils for your face. I love those as well. So again, this is the vanilla matcha. So here's my mid morning snack. Of course, I'm having a bill bar per the usual. This is the double chocolate mousse. I love this one. I'm going to have this for three smart points. If you're interested in bill bar, I do have a code that will save you 10 percent and free shipping and they just came out with blueberry cheesecake. So definitely check out billbar.com and I'm going to enjoy my morning snack. So here's what I'm having for lunch today. This was from my meal prep. I will insert a picture here of the meal prep. It was the same one that I did the breakfast in. And this is the copycat Q Dopa chicken burrito bowl. Look at yum. This is so good. I decided not to use the avocado, but I did use the fat free sour cream. So this bowl is a total of only five smart points. And that's using real rice at the bottom. So so good. And then I've got my second fruit of the day, which is just a bag of red grapes. And then I'm going to have a sweet nothings for dessert. I love these. These are one smart point pieces of candy and they are so good. You can buy these at protein wise.com. There is a link down in the description box. If you click the link, you will get $10 off your first order. So this is only a six smart point lunch. So here's what I'm having for my afternoon snack today. I'm going to have one of these Vermont minis. These are those cute little beef and pork pre wrapped little pork sticks. These are really good. I actually got these at the airport when I was traveling. These are really good and they're only one smart point. I'm also going to have a pack of the WW sweet honey roasted chickpeas. I got this as a sample at my workshop and I've never had it. So I'm going to have that. That's only two points. And then I've been bringing these cute little bags of petite carrots. Already pre packaged, which I love for zero points. So this is going to be a three smart point snack. Hey, guys, I'm at work. It is about one o'clock in the afternoon, day one. So far, so good. It's been going really well. I had my breakfast, my morning snack and my lunch. And then you saw what I was going to have for afternoon snacks. So I'll be having that throughout the afternoon. And then we'll be going home and making dinner and having dessert. But so far, so good on day one. I think I still have a lot of points left. I want to say maybe 15, 16. So that's going to be a lot for this evening. But if I get hungry again before dinner, I have the option to have myself another snack. But so far, day one on the Wendy plan has been going really, really well. I've been drinking a lot of water. I'm on my third 24 ounce cup of water. So that's definitely a good thing. So day one of the Wendy plan dinner. I just made this lightened up beef stroganoff in my instant pot. Amazing. You guys will be seeing this recipe in an upcoming five nights of dinner. But look at that creamy, delicious with real steak. Yum. So this dinner is seven points for the stroganoff. Zero for the veggies. So that is a seven point dinner. I'll be back to show you my dessert and then I'll touch base with you guys and let you know how day one went. So I'm about to put together my dessert for tonight. I have a lot of points left to you guys. I have eight, so I'm not going to probably eat them all. But let me show you kind of what I'm going to do for dessert for tonight. So I'm taking some of the great value cherry pie filling. I did measure out five ounces here on my food scale. I'm going to top that with about six tablespoons of fat free ready whip. So two tablespoons is five grams. So basically 15 grams of fat free ready whip. So let's do that. There we have it. And then I decided to take a graham cracker here, just one sheet. So it's one point and I'm just going to kind of crumble it on top of my fat free ready whip. And then I'm really excited. I'm going to top it with one point or I'm sorry, one serving, which is 30 of the Lily's milk chocolate baking chips. Yes, my friends, they have milk chocolate. How exciting is that these came from protein wise dot com. I do have a link down in the description box that will get you ten dollars off your first order. So free ten dollars worth of food. And you can pick yourself up these milk chocolate baking chips. This is what they look like. So actually they are full size chocolate chips versus kind of the smaller ones of the dark chocolate chips. So I'm just going to plunk out 30, which is quite a lot that I measured out here on to my little dessert. So there we have it. We have five ounces of the sugar free pie filling for three points. One graham cracker for one makes four and the chocolate chips make five and then the whipped cream makes six. So this is a six smart point dessert. I'm not sure if I did that math completely correct, but I just know that the end product is six smart points. So there you have it. That is tonight's dessert. Hey guys, it is officially the end of day one on the Wendy planet. It's about 6 30 p.m. And you just saw my dessert. That was fantastic. Now, probably not a dessert that I would eat regularly only because it was six points and typically I don't have six points left at the end of the day for dessert. But I was just not very hungry today. In fact, I actually have two points left over and I'm stuffed. There is absolutely positively no way that I can eat two more points worth of food. So I'm going to have two extra points, which means that I ate 32 out of 34 points today, which I'm totally OK with.  And that dinner was fantastic. Everything was absolutely delicious. So I feel that day one went really well. Again, I was not very hungry tomorrow is Saturday and tomorrow is June 15th, which is my high day. So that's the day that I basically use my weeklies. So I'm going to be eating between 50 and 52 points tomorrow, which is great because then I can indulge in a nice dinner with my in-laws. So of course, I'll take you along with me on all of the food for tomorrow. So day one was, in my opinion, an absolute success. Hey guys, happy Saturday, day two of the Wendy plan. Now, today is my high point day where I eat between 50 and 53 points today. So I am at the grocery store, of course, because it's Saturday. Get into my grocery shopping so far. It's already gone, but I've had my coffee. So my coffee is one point. What I put in my coffee this morning is three tablespoons of the sugar-free Italian cream, Italian sweet cream, creamer. You know that I change up what I put in my coffee. I have tons of options at home. I like to have options. So today I decided just to go with the traditional coffee made sugar-free creamer. So that is one smart point. I also brought one of my favorite belt bars, the cinnamon chocolate cream. So I have this to snack on while I'm doing my shopping because I'm not only going to Fred Meyer, but I'm also going to be going to Trader Joe's. So I need to have something to eat prior to getting home. So that's going to be three points for that, one point for my coffee. So I'll be sitting at four points for today. So I'm going to keep it kind of light throughout the first part of today because we are having my in-laws over tonight for a barbecue. And we're going to be doing actually pretty healthy. We're going to do kebabs, some watermelon, some baked beans. My in-laws are bringing a green salad. So I don't know what she's going to put in there, but they are like super healthy. I mean, they're in their 70s and they run. They my Terry, my stepmother-in-law, my mother-in-law walks a ton. They're very active golfers. So they eat on the healthy side anyway. So I imagine that it's not going to be too bad. And then I decided just to go with a simple angel food cake for dessert because angel food cake is one of the lower cakes and points. And I can just really load up on the strawberries and the light whipped topping and kind of go lower on the cake itself. So I'm going to try to save at least 20 points, if not more, probably more for dinner. And I'd actually like to have a beer as well. And my favorite beer is four points.  And then I'm going to do my best to share with you guys what I have for dinner as well. So, yeah, that's the plan. So let's get started on day two of the Wendy plan. So this is what I'm going to be having for breakfast this morning. It's about 10 a.m. Just got back from the grocery store. So I have two slices of the Sam's Choice Turkey bacon, one point apiece. So that's two points. I have two eggs for zero. And then under my eggs, I have one serving of these shredded hash browns for three. So this is a five smart point breakfast. And then I'm just having some water. So I'll be back to show you if I have a snack or my lunch. Hey, guys, so we are out running errands. It's almost noon. So we are at McDonald's getting a diet coke and I uploaded my grocery haul. So it just got uploaded. We are running to Home Depot and then I can't remember one other place. I don't remember where that is. Then we're heading home and getting ready for our in-laws. So I brought with me the Quest Birthday Cake Bar. I wanted to make sure that I had a snack with me just in case I got hungry on the road.  Hey, guys, I just realized that I didn't film what I had for lunch. So I am so sorry.  So what I ended up having and I'll insert a picture right up here of the original dinner recipe was I just had some leftovers from last night of that beef stroganoff that lightened up beef stroganoff for seven smart points. Now I pre-tracked my dinner and I'm only at 37 points and I have to eat a minimum of 50 to 53 and I'm full like I don't know. I'm on the struggle bus trying to reach all those points unless I just eat crap, but I'm not hungry. So we'll see how dinner goes. I may have a glass of wine. I may have a little bit more snacky type of stuff like I didn't count for any poppables and I may actually end up having poppables and I don't know what salad she's making, so I'm going to have to count points for that. So I might get close to the 50, but we shall see. Sorry for not filming my lunch. So I wasn't able to fill my dinner with my family here, but what we had, my mother-in-law made this salad. It was so good strawberries, blueberries, feta, cucumbers, candied walnuts and she made a homemade vinaigrette with strawberries and oil and lemon juice. It was delicious. So this was the salad that we had. And then you can see here that we barbecued up some kebabs. So I did chicken and beef with zucchini, peppers and onions. So delicious. Oh, and mushrooms. These were really, really good. And the only thing you had to count points for was the meat and the marinade. So it wasn't bad at all and salad. I also made some bushes baked beans and then for dessert, we had watermelon. And we also had angel food cake with strawberries and whipped cream. So I want to say that dinner and I had a small glass of wine. So I'm going to say that I was probably pushing about 47 points today. So I got really close to the 50 points. So day two of the Wendy plan was a success. So day two of the Wendy plan is complete. I didn't quite hit my target. I'm really kind of watching the zero point foods and fruits, even though I am doing the Wendy plan because they aren't counted as points. And the Wendy plan, you're supposed to be counting all of your points. So I think I ended up hitting pretty darn close to 50 today. 47, 48 points. So I'll take it. It was really close to what my goal was for today. So tomorrow, day three of the Wendy plan, I drop all the way back down to 33 points tomorrow. So let's see how that goes after having two higher point days. So see you guys tomorrow. Hey guys, happy Sunday. It is about 6.15 a.m. I'm up, I've been up since about five. I have not eaten anything, but I did go ahead and make my coffee. So so far today, I've had one smart point. This is day three of the Wendy plan today. I'm back down to 33 points, which is my normal amount of smart points in a day. So I'm going to take you with me on everything that I'm eating today to equal 33 smart points. So I'm going to finish my coffee, watch a little bit of YouTube. And today's the day I mail prep. So I'm going to get started on that as well. So I'll be back when I have some breakfast. So here's what I'm having for breakfast this morning. So I have two slices of the Sam's Choice turkey bacon. So that is two points. I have one of my hash brown cups that I prepped in meal prep. You guys, these are so good. And that is also two smart points. And then I have one serving or half of a cup of cottage cheese, which is also two smart points. I'm going to have some black and red grapes. And what I have here is some of my copycat Starbucks passion tea lemonade for zero. So my entire breakfast is only six smart points. Hey, guys, it's just about 10 a.m. I am meal prepping like crazy as I do every Sunday. So I'm going to have a snack. I'm going to do my cinnamon chocolate cream built bar. I love this one. Let me know in the comments below. Do you guys like the cinnamon? I love the cinnamon. So I'm going to have this for three smart points. So it was one point for my coffee, four for my breakfast, or was it five? I don't know. I'll have to look back. But anyways, I have the points on the screen, but this is three. So don't forget right now. Built Bar has the promotion where if you buy two full boxes and you can do any flavor, a single, a mixed box or build your own, you're going to get six free of the brand new blueberry cheesecake. Yes, please, built bars. So make sure you hop on built bar dot com order two boxes. You'll get a six pack of the blueberry cheesecake. That's a ten dollar value for free. So definitely order yourself some built bars. My code is down in the description box below and I'll put it here on the screen as well. So bon appetit on my built bar. Here's what I'm going to have for lunch today. You guys, I'm really excited about today's lunch. So what I have here is a piece of chicken with a little bit of the G Hughes Teriyaki marinade that is zero points. I have it here on a toasted multigrain Western bagel for two points. You guys have to grab Western bagels only two points for a bagel. They have other ones that are three. There's one that's five points and they're smaller bagels that are one, but you can't beat a two point bagel. Make sure you grab the perfect 10 plus multigrain and they're only two smart points. I topped my bagel with a tablespoon of the Kraft light mayo for one. So my sandwich is only three points. I'm having a bag of these pro spicy chili lime chips. They are only two smart points. I purchased these off of protein wise.com. There's a link down in the description box that'll save you ten dollars. There's also a link that will save you 10 percent on Western bagel. I'm going to be having a sweet nothings for dessert. These also came off of the protein wise website. One point for a piece of candy and this candy is so good, so good. So I'm going to have a sweet nothings and then I'm having a two good two gram sugar vanilla yogurt with about a tablespoon of the Julien bakery pro granola and espresso cluster. I'm obsessed with this granola. I do have a code for 10 percent off and free shipping on this as well. This is a game changer. You guys have to get this granola like if it's the only product besides built bars that you buy, I highly recommend the granola. So I'm having the Julien bakery espresso cluster. It is zero points because it's two points for a half a cup. And I just threw on about a tablespoon for zero. So two for my yogurt, three for my sandwich makes five, two for my chips make seven and my chocolate is eight. So this is an eight smart point lunch. Here's what I'm having for afternoon snack. It's about two thirty. I just got done cleaning and pooped. So I'm going to do a little bit of work on my computer, hop in the shower, then make us some dinner. So what I have here is a protein shake. What I've put in here is a frozen banana, one cup of almond milk. I've put in two tablespoons of my PB two and one scoop of the devotion. Brownie, batter, protein powder. You guys, this is the best protein powder ever, like literally ever. Use my link down in the description box to save 10 percent. So two points for the devotion, one point for the PB two, one point for the almond milk makes us a four smart point protein shake. I do not count for the frozen banana because this is my second fruit of the day and the last fruit of the day. So I do not count for blended fruit. So this is my four smart point protein shake. There is one serving of the Felicia Fitness Health chicken stroganoff. Look at how amazing this looks, you guys. And my entire bowl is completely full. And guess what? With the fiber gourmet pasta, this is a total of five smart points. That's it for this entire dinner. Five smart points. First one I'm going to have for a dessert tonight. This will be the remainder of my points, about seven points worth. And these are so good. I'm really wanting some chocolate. I've quite a bit of points left. So I think I'm going to round out my day with these. So that will put me at 33 out of 33 smart points for day three of the Wendy plan. So I just made my coffee for this morning. Good morning. It is day four on the Wendy plan. It is Monday. I'm off today, so I'm going to take you along with me on a few fun things that I do today as well as my food. So because today I actually get 41 points, I decided to try this coffee creamer that I picked up in my grocery haul. This one is one smart point per tablespoon. So it's a lot higher than the coffee mate. The coffee mate, you can have three tablespoons for one point. So I thought since I had 41 points, let's give it a shot. So what I did is I ended up adding two tablespoons to my coffee and it's it's OK. I'd rather get three tablespoons of the coffee mate for one point. But I had it. It's a high point day. So I decided to go ahead and splurge on the creamer today. So this is the sugar free international delight, caramel macchiato. So I met two points out of 41. So that leaves me 39 points for the rest of the day. So here's what I'm going to have for breakfast today. When I'm done here, I'm going to show you that I'm going to pack my food to take with me today as I run errands.  So for breakfast, I'm having one of my hash brown cups that I made a meal prep for two points, two slices of the Sam's Choice Turkey bacon for two points. And then I'm going to have some grapes for zero. So my breakfast this morning is only going to be four points.  So I have my lunch bag here. I'm going to throw an ice pack in it. So for lunch, I brought my meal prep. So I have my Teriyaki chicken and my Asian slaw. So my meal prep is only five points. Of course, I'm going to bring some watermelon, one of my little sweet nothings candies for lunch, so that'll be six points for my lunch. I'm going to bring one of these fun beef sticks from Costco. These are only one smart point. Some double bites in honey mustard. These are three points. These came from proteinwise.com. These are really good. I'm also going to throw in a pack of almonds for three points. Don't know if I'll eat those. And then I'm headed to Starbucks to upload a video. So I'm going to bring a premier protein and I'm going to throw that in some coffee just to get myself another bout of coffee. So if I eat everything that I'm packing, it's 15 points. And right now I'm sitting at six points. So I have a lot left to eat for the day. But this is what I'm going to throw into my bag. Hey guys, I just got to Starbucks. So I'm going to head in. I think what I'm going to do is I'm going to order either three or four shots over ice and add my premier protein for two points. And that should tide me over until lunch. So I'm going to do that instead of a belt bar this morning. I didn't bring a belt bar because I think I'm going to have that later when I get home. So I'm just trying to make sure I'm eating all my points today. So I'm excited about the extra points, but also hoping that I can eat them all. So I may eat some higher point things. We'll just see how the day plays out. But I'm going to go into Starbucks and upload meal prep. God, that needs to get uploaded today and then spend a little time at Starbucks. And then I'm heading to pick up my mom and we are going to go to Costco. And then I've got a few meetings for some opportunities that I'll be sharing later with you guys that I have going on. I need to go to the post office and then need to run to the jewelry store and get my ring check. So it's going to be a busy day. So there's my three shots with a premier protein vanilla. So I'm going to have that and get my meal prep uploaded. Super excited. Hey guys, I just left Costco with my mom.  I'm currently sitting outside of the post office after running in mail something. Then I'm on my way to the jewelry store to get my ring checked. I didn't have a snack. I wanted to show you guys. So I had these double bites and honey mustard. They're three points. I bought these off of Protein Wise. It's website. It is linked down in the description box below and you can get $10 off of your first order. These were pretty good, super crunchy, not as honey mustardy as I wanted, but there was a lot of them in this package and they do have 10 grams of protein. So if you're looking for a good, easy tick along snack, those are awesome.  You can't go wrong. So I'm going to head in and mail this. I'm actually mailing some spices off to one of my subscribers who doesn't have a trigger jose near her. So I'm sending that off to her and then I'm heading down to the jewelry store. I've been drinking water. I've got my lunch pack. So I'll let you guys know when I eat some lunch. It's 12 o' seven. I still have about an hour before my first appointment at one. So I'm going to have some lunch. You can see here that I'm out of Wendy's. I think I'm just going to go in and work on editing videos and just sit and relax and eat my lunch. I may have to buy a drink or something. So it's not weird that I'm in Wendy's, but I'm going to have my Asian ramen noodle salad and my chicken, my sweet nothings. And then I'm working on some water, but yeah, I may go ahead and head in and buy a drink. I'm going to bring in my watermelon as well. So I just walked in the door. I'm heading back out here shortly, but I wanted to show you what I grabbed at Costco. So this is my little small Costco haul. So my husband loves the dub soap. This was a steal, $12 for 16 bars. I paid $9 for eight. So that was a great deal. It doesn't hurt to have so much soap. They're individually boxed too, which makes it really nice for storage. Bononners. I decided to get some more so I could freeze them for my protein shake that I make with the devotion because I'm obsessed. I got these cute, really thin, I mean really thin socks. I'm always looking for a good pair of thin socks to wear in my tennis shoes for my walks in the morning. So I'm really excited to have these. I think that they're going to be the perfect thickness for that. A huge, ginormous thing of garlic because I love garlic and we go through a ton. This was a lot cheaper than the freeze dried. So I just grabbed it tuna fish. I've been thinking about tuna and best price ever is at Costco for tuna fish. $13.99, I think for eight cans, which is a great deal of the solid white. I don't like the pink with the weird stuff. So love this tuna. Of course, a huge thing of paper towels. Who doesn't go to Costco and not get paper towels or toilet paper?  Look at this. This is $26.70 for nine pounds of chicken. And this is fresh and natural. It doesn't have any added anything. There's no rib meat. So this is a true zero percent chicken. This is a great deal. The packs are perforated so you can separate them for easy use and storage. So that's what I went there mainly for. I grabbed some Irish death. This is one of my husband's favorite beers. So I thought that I would be sweet and get him a bottle of that. This is a local brewery and this beer is really dark. It's pretty good. And then lastly, because it was such a great deal, I bought this avocado oil, nine bucks or $10 for 33 ounces. And this avocado oil is so good. Oh, and I got a case of water as well. So that's my little mini Costco haul. So I'm having a built bar. Sorry, so I'm out before I head out to my next appointment for three smart points. I'm really under points, you guys. We'll talk about it when I hit the road.  One's rolling in the grass and the other one is on her bed. Oh my goodness. I sure love these two little turds. So I'm going to bring this bar with me as well, only because I have a feeling I'm going to be really hungry before I get back home and make dinner. This is from proteinwise.com. This is the Divine Caramel Sea Salt. These are really good. It's a big bar and it's only four smart points. Look at that. And it's nice and thick. They're high fiber, 15 grams of protein. So I'm going to take this to just in case. So here's what I'm having for dinner tonight. This is ground beef lo mein. You will be seeing this in an upcoming five nights of dinner. This entire portion is only six smart points. So that means I have a lot of points left. So I'm going to have this and then I'll show you what I'm having for dessert and we'll do a little recap of where I ended up point wise. So this is going to be my dessert tonight. So what I have is a little over three servings. The rest of the can here of the sugar free cherry pie filling. That is a total of five smart points. And this pie filling is really good. It's a perfect dessert to that. I went ahead and added one serving of the Lily's milk chocolate baking chips. These are new. These are delicious. I really, really, really like these. So I went ahead and added one serving of that. So that is two points. So my dessert here is a total of seven points. Hi guys. It's the end of day four on the Wendy plan. And I ended today at 37 out of 41 points. I cannot eat anymore. So I'm not going to just eat to eat. So I was actually four points shy of what my allotted points were for today. But I feel great. I feel satisfied. My dinner was delicious. I had a huge dessert. I am good. So 37 out of 41.  I just, I can't do it. So hopefully Friday is good on the scale. It's Tuesday, day five tomorrow. So I'll be back in the morning to check in with you as we start day number five. Hey guys, I just got to work. Have my coffee. So today is day five on the Wendy plan. Today I actually have 39 points. I think it's 39 points. Pretty sure it's 39 points. Put it here on the screen though if it's not. So anyways, I have all those points. So I decided to go ahead and go with that sugar-free international delight. Two tablespoons, two points. I'm going to go into work. Of course, this week I'm going to be eating my meal prep. So you're going to see a lot of duplicate breakfast and lunches just because that is what I'm planning for meal prep. I brought my snacks. So let's see how day five goes. I did walk this morning for about 40 minutes. So that's awesome. So I'll be back to show you what I'm having this morning for breakfast. So here's what I'm going to be having for breakfast today. Yes, it is 39 points today. So I just double-checked that. So this is my meal prep. One of my hash brown broccoli cheese cups for two points. Two slices of my Sam's Choice turkey bacon for two points. And then I just have some red and black grapes here. So my breakfast is four points. And then my coffee was two. So right now I am six points out of 39. Hey guys, it is day five of the Wendy Plan. I wasn't able to film any of my food today. It was a crazy day at work. But I wanted to let you guys know what I ate. So I had my meal prep breakfast that I did get to show you guys. For my morning snack, I had a built bar. I had my meal prepped lunch. And then for an afternoon snack, I had some of the Crunchmaster brownie, salted caramel, protein, fins, and a meat stick from Costco. And then when I came home, I had my leftover ground beef lo mein that you saw in yesterday's video. And then I had the leftover cherry pie filling and chocolate chip dessert. So I ended up at 37 out of 39 points. And that was the majority of dinner and dessert. So I'm still two points shy of what I should have been. But I'm full at six 30.  But overall the day went really well.  And I've been really stressed out at work. So I'm sure that's partially why I'm not hungry. But so far the Wendy plan has been great. Tomorrow is day six. And I am back down to 33 points for tomorrow. So I'll try to be a little bit better about filming my actual food and checking in with you guys throughout the day tomorrow. So moving on to day six. Hey friends, happy, happy Thursday, Wednesday. Oh my gosh, it's only Wednesday. Apparently I really wanted to be Thursday. But it is day six on the Wendy plan. Today I'm back down to the 33 points, like I mentioned yesterday, which is fine. I'm on the struggle bus eating all my points you guys. I think it's because this week has been extremely stressful. There's a lot of upcoming changes in my life. And this week they've all just kind of come to a head. So I think that I just have been stressed out. So food has not been my top priority. I'm a little different where I'm stressed out. I don't want to eat. I'm not hungry. Nothing sounds good. So that's probably what's happened this week. But today I'm at 33. Tomorrow is another high point day, which I find kind of interesting because I'm weighing in on Friday. So I don't know how excited I am to eat a high point day the day before weighing in. But I'm going to follow the Wendy plan exactly because I want true results when I weigh in on Friday. So I'm starting my day off today with my typical coffee. I have some of the sugar free. Gosh, that's good chocolate powder. I'll put a picture of that right here for you guys. It's a link in my Amazon store. I added just a little bit of orange extract, just what you would use in baking to make an orange mocha and then a little bit of almond milk. So this coffee is one smart point. I'm going to head into work and I'll show you my breakfast same as I had yesterday, but I'm going to be better today about filming my snacks and my lunches because I did not do well with that at all yesterday. So I'll see you guys at breakfast. So here's my breakfast. So repeat from yesterday my meal prep of my hash brown broccoli cheddar cups, which are so good, you guys. Definitely try this recipe out. It is in my meal prep video. I will link a picture of it here so you can see what meal prep I'm referring to make it easy to find. I have two slices of the Sam's Choice turkey bacon and then my typical grapes. And of course I'm still kind of working on my coffee. So my breakfast is only four smart points. Not bad for all of this deliciousness. This is what I'm having this morning for a morning snack. This is the coconut chocolate cream built bar. I really like this one. I just throw these in the fridge at work and they're the perfect texture and consistency for a quick morning snack. Three smart points. So not bad at all. So that's going to put me at a total of eight smart points out of 33. So I'm doing really well today. The coconut is really good. It reminds me of a mound. So good. So again, my link for a built bar is down in the description box where you will save 10% and get free shipping. So coconut chocolate cream, it is for this morning's breakfast. Or snack, not breakfast. My breakfast, AM snack. How's that? So here's my lunch for today. Again, this is my meal prep that I prepped in that same video. So I have one breast of chicken here with some of the G Hughes teriyaki marinade for zero points. Here is my delicious ramen salad. So I've got some coleslaw. This dressing is so good. And then it's just some ramen noodles, some papitas and some almonds. So this portion of my lunch is only five smart points. And that is for the salad.  And then I'm going to round out my lunch with some dessert. And this is the caramel pecan cluster sweet nothings. This is my favorite flavor. It literally tastes like a Snickers. So good. So this is going to be my dessert for one smart point. You can buy these on proteinwise.com. Down in the description box is a link directly to their website.  So you can go on there and shop, shop, shop and get $10 worth of free products. So definitely order these caramel pecan clusters. It's a chocolate for one point and it is delicious. So my lunch is a total of six smart points. So this is what I'm going to be having for an afternoon snack. So I have a little bag of my petite carrots for zero. And then I have one of these protein wise divine caramel sea salt high fiber bars. You guys, these are phenomenal. They taste like a granola bar, but the caramel salted, oh, so good. The flavor is on point. And this entire bar, this is a large bar. Look at that. It's only four smart points. So it's got some fiber. It's got some protein. And it literally tastes delicious. Again, this came from proteinwise.com. Link down in the description. And then I decided to bring with me today one of my diet snapple half and half. So I'm just going to sip on this. This is the half tea, half lemonade for zero. So zero, zero and four. So this is a four smart point afternoon snack. So it is the end of day five on the Wendy plan or day six. I can't remember now, but it is almost the end. Tomorrow is the last day. Tomorrow is a high point day for me. I think it's 40, but I do weigh in on Friday. So I am a little concerned about that, like I mentioned, but I'm going to follow the plan exactly. So today was a normal 33 point day. I actually ended the day at 31 points. I didn't eat all the 33, but it was really, really close. I'm stuffed. I'm not going to eat if I'm not hungry. So I feel like 31 out of 33 is pretty darn good. So today went really well. Again, it's been a pretty stressful week. So I haven't really been very hungry. But for dinner tonight, I'll put a picture of it right here for you. I had a really good pizza casserole. It's coming out in my next five nights of dinners. And then I had my same cherry pie filling chocolate chip dessert that I had last night. So that put me at the 31 point. So tomorrow is the final day. I'm debating if I want to do it another week. I'm actually considering it. So I can't wait to weigh in, give you guys the results, let you know my final thoughts on the Wendy plan. Good, bad. I'll be completely honest with you as always and let you know exactly what my thoughts are. So have a good night and I'll see you guys in the morning for the final day of the Wendy plan. Hey guys, happy Thursday. Last day on the Wendy plan, day six. So today I have 40 smart points. As I mentioned, I'm a little nervous about that just because I weigh in tomorrow. But that's okay. I'm going to do my best to stay exactly with the Wendy plan. I want to show you guys coffee. So what I did today is I used, again, the gosh, that's good sugar-free chocolate and some orange extract and a splash of almond milk. So it's one point. So I'm one out of 30 or one out of 40 points so far today. So I'm on my way to work and I'll try to fill my food. I'm literally eating the same thing as yesterday. The only thing that may be a little bit different is there may be some added snacks today because I do have those extra points. So last day on the Wendy plan, I can't wait to give you guys a full recap. Excited to weigh in tomorrow. See how it all worked out for me. So I'll see you guys at breakfast. Here's my breakfast today. Same as yesterday, my meal prep. So my hash brown cup for two points. My two slices of turkey bacon for two and then some grapes. And of course, I'm still working on my coffee.  So I am at five out of 40 points thus far. For morning snack, I'm having a bill bar. Today I decided to have the cinnamon chocolate cream. I love this bill bar. This one I really, really like. Some do, some don't. I think it's delicious. Tastes like a chocolate covered cinnamon bear. So this is my three point morning snack and that's going to put me at eight out of 40 points so far for the day. My lunch for today is my meal prep. My Asian salad. You guys, this is so incredibly good. If you have not made this recipe, I highly encourage you to do it. It is delicious, so good. And it's five smart points. That's it. And that's ramen noodles, nuts, dressing and everything for five points. A little bit of teriyaki chicken for zero. Some more watermelon. Kind of my jam during the summer. Love it.  Don't forget to check out the description box for $10 off. They have a fantastic website. Fantastic. So my breakfast, or my breakfast. Wow. My lunch is a total of six points. Five for the Asian slaw. One for the sweet nothings. So that's going to put me at 14, I believe, out of 40 smart points for the day. So for some snacks today, I'm going to be having one of my divine caramel sea salt bars. You guys, these are from Proteinwise as well. So you can hop on there and order the sweet nothings and these. These are only four points and this is a huge granola type of bar and it is delicious. Reasonable price.  It has 15 grams of protein. It's gluten-free, yum. So this is four smart points. And then I've got some baby carrots. Another bottle of my diet, Snapple half and half. And I have an errand to run after work.  These are insulted caramel. I love these. These are gluten-free. They literally taste like crispy corners of a brownie and they are so good. I have 24 of these for two smart points or you can do the 32 thins for three smart points. But I just usually narrow it down so that I can just have it for two points. So I'm going to do this for two points and this for four points, zero and zero. So that's six additional points. I don't know where that puts me. I'm going to go ahead and put it here on the screen for you guys. So this is what I'm planning on having for some snacks today. This is what I'm having for dinner tonight. This is the leftover pepperoni pizza casserole. This is eight smart points. And then I'll show you what I'm having for dessert and that will finalize the last day of the Wendy plan. Look what came today. My blueberry cheesecake built bars. I'm so excited. So this is actually going to be my dessert. So you will get a taste first impression of the new flavor. So excited to try these. This is so incredibly good. This is literally one of my favorite flavors. It is so blueberry. It tastes like fresh picked blueberries. You guys, you have to try this. And for three smart points, oh my gosh, I'm seriously in love. So I'm going to round up my day with some smart sweets only because this sounds really good and I have so many points. You guys, I'm not hitting the 40 points today. I'm actually at 33 points, I believe. So didn't quite make it to 40 and it's almost 6 p.m. I weigh in tomorrow. I don't eat past six. So this is going to round out my day. I'm in love with these peterines. They are so freaking delicious. I crave them. They're that good. So make sure you go to smart sweets.com. Use the code Gen Clayton for free shipping and order these. These are delicious. So that's going to round out my day and that is going to round out this week on The Wendy Plan. All right guys, it is the end of The Wendy Plan. It is day six. I just ate my smart sweets. I'm stuffed and I'm going to take a shower, relax. I'm excited away in tomorrow. I'm really curious as to what's going to happen on the scale. I'm feeling really good. I walked this morning. I walked three days this week on top of doing The Wendy Plan. My only concern is I did not hit my points every day on The Wendy Plan. I just couldn't eat all of that sometimes which is interesting because on my splurge day on Saturday I eat a lot but that's one day. It's not drawn out over the week and some days, excuse me, I just drank some Coke Vanilla Zero.  I'm busy. I'm not as hungry. So I'm really anxious to see what happens on the scale tomorrow. So I'll be doing a little recap of The Wendy Plan in my weigh-in video that you guys will actually see before this one. But overall, The Wendy Plan, I feel like it went really, really well. I actually would be interested in continuing on maybe another week just to see. I want to see my results and if I lose, I may continue it into next week as well. We'll just kind of have to see. But if you haven't tried The Wendy Plan, I recommend that you do it. It's kind of nice to change up the pace. I feel like it definitely shakes your body up, shakes your metabolism up, really shakes up your points. So it kind of keeps your body guessing which is always a good thing in weight loss. So thank you for joining me on my Wendy Vlog and you'll see my update in my weigh-in video of how it went. So thank you again for watching. If you're new, make sure you subscribe. Hit the bell so you're notified when I upload a new video. Give this one a thumbs up. Comment down below. Let me know, did you try The Wendy Plan? How did it work for you? And what do you think of these vlogs when we test out these different programs? And I'll see you all in the next one. Bye, guys.


I'm gonna take Instagram seriously because at this point Instagram doesn't really innovate. They copy.  Yeah, they're not known for being innovative and doing anything. So I don't think any of the platforms view them as a real threat. I mean, Instagram is like the biggest day now which still to me ties back into the whole branding thing, right?  The best explanation I've heard on modern day Instagram is it is a combination between LinkedIn and Tumblr.


I get this question asked a lot and I would say if I'm trying to sum up what the job of an independent duty corpsman is, it's um... It'd be the independent duty corpsman that's being like the highest person in the rate. IDC is deploying on ships with naval special warfare, with small boat teams, with EOD, with the Marines. They're really like a jack-of-all-trades to be honest. What it means to be an independent duty corpsman is that at one point in your career, you will have someone's life in your hands. The training to be an independent duty corpsman is quite brutal. Today we're at Strategic Operations, which is a hyper-realistic trauma training facility in San Diego, California that we use to train IDC students at Surface Warfare Medical Institute. This training is so realistic it gives me goosebumps.  And then you walk into the DDG area and be like, holy cow, we have a ship here as well. And then all of a sudden they start hearing explosions and gunfire. And that's part of actually training the student to be able to block out some of these sounds and focus on what we're training for. We're not training them to be a patrol corpsman. We're not training them to be a Marine. What we're doing is we're training them to be an actual life saver, independent duty corpsman. Real life experience is always a little bit different and we can't cover everything and we can't have everything perfect, but what we're doing is we're getting them exposed to as much as possible. So when they are exposed to it in the fleet in real life, it's not such a shock and they can move on and do what they're trying to do. It's definitely stressful, definitely realistic with the actual MPTs and the cut suits. So it really looks like they're missing a leg or an arm and so that was really real. It was very stressful because you're trying to remember everything you were taught during school, everything you taught in class and you're actually applying it in real life. It was pretty crazy out there. The more sweat here is the less blood when we're deployed. So if I can get all these kinks worked out now before they get to the fleet, I'm just providing a better product for my friends that are deploying right now and to be honest to relieve the senior IDCs in the fleet that need to be relieved. I think this training is absolutely critical for an independent duty corpsman of these days. I'm very passionate about training my relief and I'm very passionate about this type of training because it's so realistic and will save lives in the fleet.
