It can help a lot. And that compare and despair, when you're looking around and what everybody else is doing, If you insist on playing that game, there's a few games that you shouldn't play. There's a great quote from Naval Ravikant that if you play stupid games, you win stupid prizes.

And comparing is a little bit of a stupid game, although we all do it automatically because it's hardwired evolutionary. It's something that kept us alive and kept our ancestors alive. It's why it got passed down to us. But now it just makes us miserable. It doesn't help you in this day and age, generally, unless you're taking inspiration.

But if you are, then you're generally not comparing because they're two different things. And if you're comparing up, compare against the people that are behind you. I have to remember, Alana, I was a teacher earning probably £20,000 a year doing something I didn't even like.

And the first time in 2016, when I made that in a month, I was like, oh my God, I have made more in 28 days than I did the whole of last year or the whole of four years ago as a teacher. So you have to use a little bit of a contrast point. And again, that's relative.

If it's financial, use a financial because there was a time some will be listening and they've been relatively affluent all through their life. Some won't have. Most won't have. Most have had failures. Most have gone broke. Most have gone into debt. And now they're out of it. So comparing down is useful. But when it comes to the mindset side and the 97-year-old rule and what's important now.

It's so cliche that when you run your own course and run your own race, you don't tend to look around as much. And if you are, it's possibly a sign that you're not doing what you're supposed to be doing because procrastination is feedback that you probably shouldn't be doing what you're doing.

You need to outsource it, eliminate it, delegate or automate it if you can in some shape or form and then get back into your zone of genius. You talk a lot about this The longer you're in your zone of genius, the more flow state you go into, the more you're going to get done and it's going to feel easier.

The secret sauce in business, in my opinion, is find the things in business that you find easy that other people find difficult. That's as close to a secret sauce as you'll get. And then it will look like you're doing loads from the outside, but in reality, you're just in flow state.

I kind of fell into it by accident, if I'm honest.

Quite an accident, but it will all make sense in a moment. And I would imagine the early stages you'll connect with directly. So in 2014, 2015, I was competing in bodybuilding shows. I was actually a professional fitness model for two years. So I was traveling around the world, magazines, photo shoots, things along those lines. And I got out of that world after my daughter was born.
