Yay!\n\n\n\n[Jaz]Sort of. So just for the benefit of the audience listening and watching right now, what I mean is the reason I felt the last time I felt this bad in life was when I was on Barry's course is because Barry really brought home and taught me the value of your mindset of the way that you see the world.\n\n\n\nCause one of the exercises, one of the first things you do on your course is the way you see the world, so you walk across the corridor, and you see the world, as if it's a beautiful place. And then you do that walk across the corridor and walk back. And then you see the world as if it's dangerous.\n\n\n\nAnd then you walk across and that same walk, but the world was completely different. And that's the last time I felt this much doom and gloom in life. So I thought you are the best person to come and just give us a five, ten minute nugget on what can you say? What can you say to everyone? Dentists, nurses, therapists, but what can you say Barry? What's your message? How can you help us?\n\n\n\n[Barry]So the first thing to say is, there is a lot of doom and gloom, isn't there? That if we only focus on the negative stuff, then you're absolutely right. To talk you through that exercise that we did, we put on some metaphorical glasses, right? The first pair was that the world is a dangerous place.\n\n\n\nSo, I left you on a high, because the first one is, the world is a dangerous place. And through that mindset, through those lenses, what you're seeing is everything that fits into that mindset. Now a mindset can also be called a belief. So, if I have a belief that all men are bar stewards, then you will only really see men doing things that fit into that framework.\n\n\n\nYou'll only really meet men that fit into that framework. The world is a dangerous place. You look around the room, you'll only see tripping hazards, electricity, danger all around you. And so encouraging you to change your mindset is like putting on a fresh pair of glasses. A pair of glasses that is, the world is full of beauty and love.\n\n\n\nAnd I look around and I see electricity, connectivity, the ability to see your lovely face and have this conversation. And sunshine being outside, whereas you could see sunshine as being carcinogenic to the skin, or it's how you process information, and it's putting on the mindset. Now, it doesn't take away the fact that SH1T is happening out there.\n\n\n\nWe are in a very uncertain time in our profession. Being that most of us, certainly you and I,
