Cigars and Thinking

Cigars and Thinking

Just had a conversation with a gentleman that walked up back here. And you meet some interesting people at cigar bars. There's hardly any riff-raff. A lot of people that, well, I mean, if you can't afford money for a cigar, you're probably not gonna go in there. And even if you can't, people usually scrape out, scrape up enough money to go in there and you get fellowship, a lot of business owners.
And one of the things, why I've always done it, even when I was younger, even if it was a dollar cigar, it doesn't matter how much they cost, is it forces you to sit in one place with your thoughts. Now, I'm doing videos on this, but typically I won't. Although I do on Sundays, I'll get this outta the way. And I'll enjoy my cigar, think about my business, think about my clients, and just let thoughts settle. I'm not gonna be on my computer. I'm not gonna be around anybody that's in "my biz."
Typically, we don't talk about business. Every once in a while it comes up, but we talk about just what's going on in life in general. It's nothing's too acrimonious. There's no screaming or yelling. There's no protests going on. I happen to be in Williamson County, Tennessee, which I think is like the second or third wealthiest county in the United States these days, but definitely conservatives. Mostly a lot of business owners that own businesses around the US come here because of the taxes and stuff in Tennessee, and they're very friendly.
But it's a different atmosphere, and if so, regardless if you smoke cigars or not. And there's a benefit to that because the nicotine does help you retain more and it builds neurons too. But that's a whole other, if you wanna dive down that, you will not find it on Google. You gotta go on X and look for it there. You might find it on Facebook, but they're still suppressing so much stuff like they did before. It is hard to find real information and so much of the medical information has been just literally dead wrong.
So, we're finding out that, hey, the FDA quietly got rid of the cholesterol suggestions. As far as the minimum, cholesterol has nothing to do with heart attacks. Okay? It doesn't cause heart attacks. It, actually prevents them. It can actually help prevent dementia and a bunch of other things, but I'm not going off the track on that. If you want to go check that out, there's, let's see here... Dr Sean Baker, you could check out him. Dr Gina Pritchard. Oh God, there's a bunch of 'em. I can't remember at the moment.
But anyway, back to my, I don't wanna squirrel off 'cause I can go down deep, dark rabbit hole there. And mostly I found 'em all because we've got a bunch of doctors as clients. And so, the things they tell you in private, they can't say online 'cause they'll get banned.
But anyway, so just giving yourself enough time to chill out, slow down, think about your business as a whole. What could you be doing better, get past that anxious part, and without somebody yabbering. You know, I come out here and talk or I can go in the lounge somewhere else, when I'm smoking my cigar, but it forces me for at least four, five minutes to an hour and a half to just sit and chill.
And it could, it can do wonders for your business and your peace of mind. So, if you're not doing that, figure out how to carve some time out at least an hour and a half or two hours every week. And you need to do it consistently. And I know some of us are workaholics. And you work those hours, but you need to recharge the battery and the drill. You're not gonna be able to do it if it won't go around. And the same thing with your brain.
So anyway, Andrew Anderson signing off for this one. Hope you have a profitable day and week. There's good stuff coming. Rock it out.
Check us out at TheLongerCrowbar.com. Hopefully, we've got all these videos up. We haven't been putting all of 'em in there, but because we've been working, so I've been so busy with other clients that I haven't had a chance to. We're focusing this month. May isn't the month. We're eating our own dog food that we make for everybody else.
So anyway, have a great day. See ya.
