And if you don't have meaning and aliveness, The worst thing is you start making even worse choices because now you resent other people. So now you've got to compete with them to beat them in games that don't matter. Does anyone hear what I'm talking about?

It's like this is why alignment and finding the feeling, what brings you alive a little bit, what has meaning to you, that's where the wealth is. What brings you alive, what brings you meaning, that's where the wealth is.

Yeah, it's going to sound so lame. If you find yourself preparing for it, thinking about it, researching it before you go do it, you're on the right track. I'm from Montana, where I grew up hunting, and I don't hunt anymore, and I know I'm in California, so hunting is officially banned by the government here. But my dad grew up on a true ranch, Uh, have y'all seen Yellowstone?

But my dad grew up on a true ranch, Uh, have y'all seen Yellowstone?

Like my dad grew up, but it was not fancy like that. He grew up in a place where he had to go four and a half miles to a one bedroom schoolhouse. So he grew up hunting because that's how they provided food for real. And so I grew up a little bit like that too, because we were broke and it was a big deal to go hunting.

But, uh, I use the metaphor just a little bit because people who, who, if they're on the right hunt, they get up at like 5 a.m. Hmm. They start putting things together. They're checking the gear. They're checking the equipment. I got a buddy. He doesn't hunt, but he's like a kite boarder. You all know what kite boarding is? Yeah, yeah. Okay, it's really hard. He's a kite boarder.

Man, he loves to get that... everything ready with the kite boarding and get it into the truck. You're preparing.

It's the weirdest, funny thing I discovered working with all these amazing people, high performers around the world. We do this research. They just prepare more. But the preparation isn't because of fear of failure. It's like they kind of geek on it. It's like they got all the gear for the bike and they got all the weird... They like to do things... They're doing it because it's an interest.

And now because they're preparing the interest, as they're doing the interest and they start to align it, it becomes a passion. And now because they have the passion, they can develop the perseverance. It becomes grit. And you know all that research. Yeah, of course.

If you don't know your value or worth, volunteer. You gotta volunteer. That's literally, that would be the shortest, most direct path to finding out your value and your worth. We live in a society, we don't volunteer. Now, I lived a decade in this town. I met my wife in this town. The girl who slept on my bills, she stayed with me. Wow. That's cool. That's pretty cool, man. That's pretty cool.

We were just at Lewis and Marta's beautiful wedding together, and we had a time of our life, and it's a very private part of my life. My wife doesn't want to be on social media. She doesn't care about that stuff, so a lot of people don't know, like, the actual great success of my life isn't, you know, the books and the courses and the events and the, you know, magazines and stuff.

It's like, I have an unbelievable marriage. Yeah. Like, an unbelievable marriage. And I bring this up because when we came, we were here... I was in San Francisco. I lived here from I think 2001 to 2008 or 9-ish. It was a different town, different city. I don't know if many of you lived here a long time. It was different. The indifference
