In, out. Doug and I had this really cool experience. We just got to do the driving experience. And one of the things I screwed up on right away was right out the gates, I spun out. And his feedback to me was, you're throttling way too much out of it. You have to ease into the throttle.

And I think, and it's such a weird dynamic because you think, how would giving it less gas get me to the point faster? More gas has got to get me there faster. No, it won't.

And doing that, you're just going to lose traction, possibly spin out or spin your wheels, and you will not get to point A or point B any faster that way.

you have to you do you have to fight that tendency and i think it is very natural for you to think that that's supposed to work and what's even more deceiving about the human body is the resiliency of it and that's where these coaches get wrong because and i you know it annoys me when i see the coaches and we have some in our own community that hear us tell that message all the time oh you know the mind pump guys that doesn't really apply yeah they're talking to a very specific set of community of people and it's like no bro average person
