I mean, I saw this when I was an instructor.
There are websites that list every single day of training with relative accuracy to everything you're going to do that day, which actually the instructors were pissed about.
And then I realized, oh, that's a good thing.
That plays to our favor.
You were an instructor.
I was an instructor.
You can then remind them how much time they have left.
You can play the time game in reverse with them.
But again, growing up, I...
I didn't have a real good place to get this information where my kids do now.
So I think there's an opportunity if you smartly use these tools that you can maybe learn a little bit more and at least get access to some of the mistakes or just the mistakes that you would naturally make because you just didn't know.
Like you probably could do a window cleaning business, but you might get in trouble from the city because a year into it, you didn't realize you needed to have a business license.
Like, okay, you could skip that because you could go to the internet and find out what you need and the requirements and all that stuff.
I, much like you, I don't ever wanna tell people that they shouldn't pursue their goals, both short-term and long-term.
But I am now of the opinion, as I get older, that I would rather have people arrive a little bit under this massive lifetime goal
and be a really happy, really fulfilled, really enriched person than somebody who carves out everything from their life, life experiences, social experiences, family experiences, holidays, and they get exactly what it is that they wanted
and they have nothing.
Because I think both you and I know people who from the outside, oh my God, the money, the fame, the fill in the blank.
They're not that happy, but they have everything that they wanted and they have nothing.
That sounds like hell.
