00:00Yes, absolutely. One thing you mentioned that resonated with me right away was that parent's guilt. It's that feeling that
00:06we have to follow this certain path or these expectations. And then in turn, we need to prove ourselves that
00:12especially with if we're going to make our own path, we need to make that successful. We need to make
00:16something out of it. And that's that's a struggle and a challenge in itself. But again, like you said, you
00:22kind of want to just move along your own path, prove it to yourself and look at where you are
00:28now. This is just incredible.
00:29We have Vision Quest. There are spiritual life's journey. One of my favorite movies was Vision Quest back in the
00:3480s, where Loud and Swain had to take on shoot for the state championship for wrestling. Every single person has
00:41their own individual goals that you have to work for. And a lot of the times it's dedicated practice to
00:46prepare for the exam, prepare for the boxing match, prepare to live life, prepare to love and to prepare to
00:53dream.
00:54And I was willing to do this. And I think a lot of people like to see the romantic. There's
01:05always exciting to see not the streaker, but the person that just runs on the field and runs for a
01:09little bit because we all wish we could for a second, you know, or run up to your favorite rock
01:13star athlete and give them a hug and a high five and get an autograph.
01:16Sometimes people have butterflies and not willing to make that extra step. But the ones that do have one of
01:21the greatest stories to tell for the rest of their life and inspire others.
01:25And so I was willing to be a martyr. I was willing to fall on a sword and really choose
01:31my battles wisely.
01:32And this really wasn't something that was a war. And a lot of entrepreneurs feel stressor. We were mentioning prior
01:38to the podcast isolation. But guess what, champ? This is what you signed up for. This is the price you
01:43pay. If you want to make a million dollars, it might be a bump in the road every now and
01:47again, and people might disappoint you.
01:49So, but if you can handle it, it's the reaction, not the action. It's the character during chaos. It's having
01:57that level head and not letting emotions get the best of you. And if you can do these sort of
02:03things and you could be an excellent leader and you can.
