I'm picking them up from practices.
I'm engaged as I possibly can be, engaged with my wife, doing day dates, doing the things that we can because I think people live to their excuses and think they can't have –
loving their life and love with their kids and time with their kids and run a successful business.
And once again, it goes back to the self-talk.
And so I encourage people, if you're not leaning into doing the things that take care of you, you'll never understand what your highest level of peak performance is.
I'm still working on it.
I have been to enough therapists, you could probably call me doctor.
But for sure, I mean, with self-talk, it's the same as you, right?
Limiting beliefs.
And then at some point in time, you wake up and you say, man, I'm sick and tired of this.
If I choose to believe that, I'm going to choose to act a certain way.
If I choose to believe something else, then I'm going to choose to act differently.
And it's like I said, what we say comes out of our mouth, goes in our ears, and that's what drives the action.
So finally, I got tired of the self-talk.
Doesn't mean that I now am perfect and I don't have self-talk.
But the conversations I have with myself, they don't last very long and they're met with extreme levels of discipline.
Both parents?
Parents married?
Only child and it was lonely.
You still with her?
