Speaker 1 (00:00):
Get your Vitamin D right with me and get excited
about Good morning, good afternoon, good evening. How you doing.
I'm Dawn Day and I am the host of the
Vitamin D Podcast, the very thing that you are listening
right now. So I hope you better buckle up because
(00:20):
it's time to live life on purpose and for a purpose.
Because you're about to get excited about your life. If
this is your first time, welcome, thank you for stopping by. Now.
I hope you enjoy yourself so much that you like
and you share this and you subscribe it. You know,
(00:42):
Vitamin DID is all about and the source of giving, okay,
and then when you give, you just start to reflect
because we just got this whole light synergy going on. Um.
But let me be clear. I said this before and
I'll say it again. Vitamin disha it's like on the
good and the bad, okay, Because if you want to
(01:03):
be better, you want to do better. Heck, you gotta
see better. And I don't know about you, but I
can see better when the lines are on. I can
see what's coming at me. Um, I can see what
I've passed. And more so, I'm not confused about what
I think I see that whole thing about fear, that
whole false evidence appearing real, And I think that's that's
(01:24):
what I want to talk to you about. Um, I
want to talk about how you gotta do it's scared.
You've heard the the acronym fear, false evidence appearing real,
the whole notion of how it's an illusion. Well, here's
the thing, without the explanation, the definition of how we
(01:48):
defied fear. If we just were to look at it
as an emotion, could you really tell the difference between
fear and excitement? I mean, your blood pumps, you might
lose your train of thought. Sometimes it may shake you
up when you're frozen for a second, or you might
(02:08):
run for the hulls? Was the difference? What's the difference?
I guess it depends on what you put behind it.
But this is what I want to say to you.
If you're feeling fear or experience and fear, you have
this illusion of fear that's standing in front of you,
I want to encourage you run towards it because guess what,
(02:34):
the only reason why you're fearing is because you have
this idea that you may not make it, but you're
a winner. Okay, listen, don you're so dramatic. Oh my gosh,
you're so extra. How what do you mean I'm a winner?
You're just saying that you wouldn't be here right now.
Do you know what's like millions of the homies that
try to surpass you to take your place in the
(02:55):
existence of your body right now that didn't have the
stamina as a sperm link, just made that up a
sperm link to make it to the egg. So you
get in these moments where your self doubt yourself, are
you allowed fear to getting yourself as if you haven't
already conquered, you haven't already achieved, you haven't dreamed, and
all is waiting on for you to believe. And then
(03:15):
after you do that, you sit back and you receive.
But you can only get there until you surpassed this
whole thing a fear and being scared. But then you
say you want to be great, so you're gonna have
to make a choice, because this is what I think.
Oftentimes we step in this poem with a fear right
(03:35):
and we feel this frustration. The only reason why you're
feeling this frustration is because you told yourself this narrative
that you wanted something exceedingly and abundantly, but then you
didn't realize the capacity was gonna take for you to
hold it. So then what happens you find yourself in
disarray and confusion and this whole frustration because you've told
(03:58):
yourself that you wanted something, however your actions aren't being
a reflection of it. So then it's like, what's going on?
What was me? But not realizing the very thing that
stopped you is what you'll need to prepare you did
you charge what I said? The very thing that's stopping you.
If you change your viewpoint, you change your perspective, use
(04:21):
it as the very thing that will propel you, because
it's one thing about fear. Fear will remind you of
where you don't want to be. And you may not
have the whole portrait, you know, paint it out and
it may not be displayed on a billboard right there
on Hollywood Boulevard, but you have an idea of where
(04:44):
you don't want to be. And sometimes half the battle
is just knowing what you don't want, because if you
see it, you know that you're not going in that direction.
So hey, if we look at fear in a situation,
and do something what we here? Why don't we run
something towards the what we want? You can't say that
(05:05):
you can't have it and then it's not yours because
you're already your winner and you're here. Plus that we
talk about being great, it has to happen outside of
your comfort zone because you're asking for something more than
what you have right now. So of course it's gonna
require more. It's gonna require your imagination to see exceedingly
beyond right now. So you gotta do it while you're scared.
(05:30):
What are you waiting for? You know you're gonna die,
right Huh? You know that you're going to die, right,
So why won't you live while you're still alive? Don't
you know that you're worth it and that you deserve it? TikTok, TikTok.
(05:56):
It's the most valuable thing that doesn't stop. Take talk?
What are you waiting on? Take talk? Your dreams are
waiting on you. It's so interesting, you know, when we
think about life and we think about sometimes how we're
afraid to move forward, and it's almost like we sit
(06:20):
there waiting for someone else to save us. Who's gonna
save you? Boom nobody's gonna want whatever it is that
you want more than you. Catch what I'm saying, Why
would somebody want something more than you than what you
would want for you, because they aren't even you to
(06:41):
know why it is that you want or whatever it
is that you need for you. So that's what I'm saying.
You gotta do it scared. You gotta run towards it,
because I'm telling you you're worth it. And if you
are feeling scared about something, that's a good thing. That
means you're growning. Hey, we understand it. When working out,
(07:05):
you're consistently trying to get your breath. Your muscles are
sore because things are stretching, things are being broken so
they can come back together peace by peace, so that
you can experience peace by piece. You did what I'm saying.
That's what it's all about. That's what it takes for
(07:25):
you to realize in your life is what you want
and how how you're gonna get it. But you gotta
do it while you're scared. You gotta do it one
step in front of the other, one step in front
of the other. Stop second guessing it. Here's the thing.
Often times you might even find yourself in this moment
(07:46):
of um feeling afraid, perhaps any because it's scarcity or lack.
But why do you think the vision came to you?
Why do you think that you have that urge inside
of you? Because you want more? Right, So give it
to yourself, Give that to yourself. Be so president. You're
now that either you are aware of what you do
(08:07):
want or what you don't want, and move towards it.
You can't sit back and watch your life play before you.
You gotta take the role and be the star in
your feel The Academy Award goes to, the Emmy Award
goes to the Tony Award goes through the Grammy Award
(08:27):
goes to you. Let me spell it out for you.
Why oh you? You can't even spell out you without
even seeing you. So how are you gonna do anything
or be of anything that ain't you? Boom? So I
gotta ask you, what do you want? What do you
(08:48):
want to do? How long is it gonna take you?
You know how I ask people about their dreams and
what they want to do, and is always this excuse, Oh,
I'm not ready. You know. I was just telling my
assistant Jeremiah, where going through videos right now for me
just putting Vitamin D together. And I just went back
in an episode with Jay Anthony Brown. Shout out to
j Anthony Brown. I appreciate you. You know, I probably
(09:10):
wouldn't even be sitting here doing this to this extent
without Jay Anthony Brown. J Anthony Brown he found out
had this podcast. He said, did you ask everybody on
the show? He said, there's no reason why you should
be doing this, so you haven't asked anybody. Thank you,
Joy Anthony Brown. But let me get back to the story.
So Jerremyer, we're going through the video, of course, because
we're getting everything together for the YouTube channel. Soon it's
(09:32):
going to be on every digital platform worldwide. But we're
going through the content so that we can fill up
our our YouTube page. Daunte speaks on YouTube. It's everything
Vitamin D. And looking at the footage, I got back
to j Anthony Brown. You know, I started out, oh
my gosh, that these big old headphones on. I'm sitting
(09:54):
in the closet and I my nerves are so shot,
but in a good way out of excitement. You can
literally see the sweat dripping down my neck and I'm
watching the video like, don are you going to wipe
the sweat? Like you know you feel the sweat. We
(10:15):
all see the see the sweat. But my whole point
in bringing that to you is that I didn't have
everything figured out. Everything wasn't together. But look at me now.
Check out the episode I got up on the YouTube
channel wood Dation checking out what I did with the
two actors from Sts and Sinners Down Day is coming.
(10:40):
You know I mentioned this and in the episodes I
talked about a quote from Rafael Gordon about how your
location is not your destination. Often times I feel that
fear gets in the way because we're so focused on
everything that's surrounding us that we lost focus on what
the actual vision is, the vision and of what it
is that you on have your dream be a parallel
(11:02):
to your reality and understanding if if you want your
reality to reflect that of the dream, that they're gonna
have to take steps to make it the reality. You
can't sit here in the frustration of being frozen because
you can't understand why you feel all this inside of you,
but you're scared, so you've decided not to and now
you've watched your life play out and understanding oh, let
(11:23):
me say this, have a lack of understanding why you
aren't feeling fulfilled, why you don't feel that you are
the star of your movie. This is your movie and
your life. Who else better to direct it than you?
Who else better than to choose your scenes, write your lines? You?
(11:44):
Who's gonna show up to the red carpet to promote
the film, to promote the project? Who? You? You have
to make the decision to do that, And you have
to understand that having it all figured out, that's not
always the case. And sometimes you need that fear to
push you to get to where you wanna be. Where
(12:07):
do you want to be? See when I asked myself
that I think of not only where, but who and
what and how? Kind of like the who, well where? When? How?
When you just think about any project that you're put
in together and for me, the basis of being a
conduit of inspiration, and I want to be like the light.
(12:29):
You cannot outcast the light because the light is meant
to shine, so and the light gonna shine across the world.
So when you asked on day, that's the vision for it.
It's for everyone to be a beacon of light so
they can be edified. So when they see vitamin D,
it's a reflection of who they are. May your dreams
be a reflection of your reality. You can't sit scared
(12:50):
and locked up forever. Hey, we're gonna be locked up
perhaps in a box, shoot in an arm, or be
scared at her, but locked up in a state when
you cannot move. So why don't you move like you
still can't? Where all this energy is just moving through
your body, can't you move it? Do that for yourself.
(13:10):
So the next time that, uh, you got fear staring
you in the face, you gotta let it know. You
ain't got nothing on me because you're a real one
and you're a bad one. And guess what, I believe
in you and I hope you do too. Okay, that
was just me just going off because I just felt
(13:30):
that on my spirit. There's times that I've known that
I felt scared, and I mean it's so annoying because
I probably myself on being able to take a jump
and to do things. But I realized that as we
get older, we have this um, this whole notion where
we entertain fear and perhaps um, you know, you think
about a child and you know the prized places to
(13:52):
have a mind and a heart like a child, because
they're just so daring. They don't have anything that you know,
apprey hands them from being just free and alive but
interesting enough. As we get older, we find ourselves separating
as that child. So when you find yourself getting moments
are scared and and and in despair, it's all right.
(14:13):
But now as an adult, you have to understand that
you have to stand in that and make the choice
to push through. Mm hmm. So when I ask you
are you ready? Are you? Well? That's it for your
dose vitamin d UM. I want you to be sure
to follow me on all social media at Dawn Day Speaks.

out of here. Um. Make sure you stay walking in

you are. Live your life on purpose and for a purpose,
