Chapter 2: Where's the bar and what does it mean?
And what does it really mean when you lower the bar? Or raise the bar. Because I look at a bar two different ways. Usually when you raise the bar, you make it tougher for somebody. You make it a tougher person to get past the bar. However, when you lower the bar as you are doing limbo dancing, you lower that bar, it's
Yeah, no, in this context, if the bar is low, your standards might not be very good. You might be doing yourself a disservice.
One may equate the level of the bar to standards.
Yes, we like to raise our standards, not lower our standards. Yeah. Okay, I'm with you. I say to everybody, raise your standards globally.
Yeah. The phrase, the bar is low, means that the standard or expectation for something is not very high.
Well, I think that we should have a, at least if it's up to a level 10, no one should be lower than a level 5.
Okay, yeah. So, you know, where's the bar? We're going to find out today, guys. You know, I might think the bar's low, but you might say it's fine and average, and that's what it takes here, a village, to come through for these people.

Chapter 3: What happens when standards are lowered?
You got to see really, you got to decide. what you want internally. And then you go and deal with the situation, but not the feelings. Cause you shouldn't be like stuck with those feelings and then living with that forever with regrets or resentment, or maybe it ends up being a deal breaker down the line. And then you, you, you know, you regret then I,
You got to determine where your bar is, but you don't have to lower it if you don't want to. That's what I wanted to hear.
And that's important for you. That's what I wanted. My next question, where are we going to go with the bar kids?
I know, I know. I mean, it is an interesting age for him. He's 29. I will say like Justin and I, we started really talking about marriage. Year three, I would say. And then I was kind of like, you know, I really want to be engaged.
If we're together after, you know, five years and we're still not engaged, like that is something that would bother me because there's certain things I want to accomplish in my life. And... You know, that's just something to be considerate of. And I didn't feel like that was ever an ultimatum. It felt like that was just us talking. But Justin had a lot of feelings around marriage.
He was really scared about proposing and marriage just because of the relationships he's seen in his life. So that, you know, maybe he's got some feelings there. But a conversation will surely sort this.
Don't lower your bar.
Moving on to number two, but keep us posted. We want an update from you.
I really do.
