If you're going to work for me, you better have it up to the right trajectory personally. Like you need to develop yourself and continue to get better and be ruthlessly connected to current reality, which is always quite frightening for everybody to like put your arms around results. Like results are the mirror for what I actually intended, not my story about what I intended. Does that make sense?

We never say anything or don't say anything on accident. So I'll try not to get lost here in some philosophical, but it's good to put a framework up here. So in my world, I'm always paying attention to a handful of things. One is this formula. I'm guessing your audience loves formulas. So here's a formula for you guys. P plus E plus O over C equals transformation. So P is patterns. E is emphasis.

P plus E plus O over C equals transformation. So P is patterns. E is emphasis.

O is omission over context. Context is vision goals, whatever, like what we're actually up to. Patterns, emphasis, omission over context equals transformation. So when someone speaks in generalities, they're avoiding something. So when they speak in generalities, what they're doing is trying to.

So many ideas here mesmerize the person with an unknown statement that means whatever they want it to mean. And it's a gesture towards what they're meaning. And so let's just say we both like the bills. And it's not specific what I mean by that, but we, you know, you're from that part of the country and it's like, yeah, we both like the bills. Okay, cool.

Okay, cool.

But we might actually have very different opinions about what's good and what's bad about them and where they're going in the future and what I hate about the bills and blah, blah, blah. We might have tons of differences, but I don't want to get close to it because I'm going to romance you with my gesture towards what you like.

And so it's anytime I hide in generalities is another way of saying it. That's safer up here. It's politics is an easy way to look at this. You know, this is not a political state, but we make America great again. Wonderful. Who doesn't think that's great? Of course, that's awesome. Now chunk that down and people start to fall off the wagon at some point in the funnel, if you will.

So there is danger and specificity. There's safety in generality. That's my point. And I could think of a hundred reasons why that's true.

Yeah. Well, we call that the despair of possibility. So, yes, it's a dopamine hit to say the future is going to be better. Right. That's just what a lot of people would call hope. And you can get elected on hope to presidency. That's happened before. And it works because everybody wants to say, hey, today sucks. Tomorrow's going to be better. Follow me.

And that's what we do when you stand up and say, yeah, this quarter stuff, this economy stuff. But just follow me into the future. And we need that as humans. We need that without there's an old saying. I forget where this is in the Torah, but without vision, the people perish, this kind of concept. Yet we do know that if a declaration in the future without commitment is empty.
