Good evening, Good evening
How are you
Are you good?
Great, welcome welcome
welcome to this match
this match will take exactly 18 minutes.
And you all part of the same team
Hey guys, I would like to see fair play
on the field, respect, and positivity.
Is that ok for everyone?
Cool. Good luck.
One year ago, I decided I want to become
a football referee,
um, it's not because of the money though
I only get paid 20 euros per match.
So, I won't really get rich by it rely.
Now, I decided to become a referee
for 2 other reasons.
One, do things go cheap?
Two, because I wanted to learn
How not to take things personally?
I can see some people nodding,
you're probably thinking being a referee
is a perfect environment to learn
how not to take things personally?
Isn't it?
Because, expectators hardly ever shouted encouraging or positive things.
No.
What do they shout?
Come on, come on.
[Loser, Are you blind?]
Yeah, good good.
As a referee, I am discabed goat.
Apparently, I'm always wrong.
It's always my fault.
And I wanted to learn
how not to take all of this personally.
Because I really struggle with this.
For example, when I drive slowly
because I'm trying to find this specific location.
And somebody is just driving behind me,
I feel hunted,
especially when they start honking,
and flashing their headlines.
[Sigh]
I take personally.
I know, I shouldn't.
But it just happens, do you see what I mean?
Or when somebody cancels
an appointment last minute
I get the feeling that
I'm not important enough.
Again, I take it personally.
Even professionally.
I'm a public speaker like tonight,
this is what I do,
I give keynotes speeches
and I really like it
as long as I can draw my audience into my story
because the very, the very moment I see somebody is not paying attention
