And what it made me really think about is what are the things that I'm saying yes to in my life that I'm not aligned with, right?

And I'm just saying yes in a vacuum with no intention.

Because as entrepreneurs, we tend to do this.

We tend to say yes.

We tend to say yes.

And understand everything you say yes to, you're saying no to something else.

So in all reality, what is really important that you should be saying yes and you should be saying no to?

What I learned in December was I had another gear that I did not know that I could run at.

But in order for me to run at that gear, there's a lot of shit I had to say no to.

And it really made me think and gave me retrospect about like,

man what am i actually saying yes to and is this aligned right so you got to have non-negotiables period you got to be consistent you got to have non-negotiables around what you're willing to do and what you're not willing to do right and that was a big lesson that i learned at 26 or i'm sorry in 25 and i'm carrying a 26. another huge lesson i learned was

if you believe and you bet on yourself and you're willing to put the chips in the middle of the table, you can do an extraordinary amount of shit because the amount of things that I had to pull off in 25 or at the end of 25 that everybody told me was not possible.

I just was not going to take no for an answer.

And what I want you guys to think about and understand in 26 is,

don't let other people's limitations affect where you're trying to go or what you're trying to do.

If I had not been the bull in 20, at the end of 25 of just saying to everybody, I don't give a fuck what you say, all this shit is going to settle.

We're going to do all these deals.

It wouldn't have happened.

And the other thing about this is there's, if you really believe there's always a way,

All these things went wrong, like just consistently in all these transactions.
