That's what it comes down to.

And that's actually one of the things that we find a lot of people, they don't...

They don't want noisy neighbors, for example.

They don't want to wait in a queue to go to the doctor.

They don't want to be in traffic.

Those things cost money.

And so that's a pleasure.

That's a pleasure idol.

And what that means is that it's very, very easy to kind of fall into patterns.

And again, there's nothing wrong with these things.

These things are not evil.

There's nothing wrong with pleasure.

It's just the misuse of pleasure.

It's just the elevation of pleasure.

When you're doing this at the expense of your family, it's like, I want peace.

Get the kids out of here.

Then you'll actually sacrifice your relationships.

You'll do things that you ultimately regret as a result of that.

And so knowing that is super important.

For most of my students, they think they have a money idol.
