No, my smartphone's in my bedroom. I just turn it off.

I turn off Wi-Fi. I turn off Bluetooth. But no, it's in my room.

I mean, I guess like being an entrepreneur, you're kind of answering the meaning of life question. Like when you're, I was born into a religious environment and it was like, hey, your responsibility in life is to obey God's commandments so that you get heaven in the afterlife.

And when you become an entrepreneur and you're in that community and professional success is your objective,

that becomes your only life objective and you're willing to do anything for it. And then you also, just by default, by being in the entrepreneurship community, you accept the habits and cultural norms in that community. And so when you hear people say things like, so-and-so worked all night long for two, worked for 48 hours straight and coded something and they're brilliant.

You're like, oh, wow, well, maybe I should stay up two nights in a row and do something brilliant because I want people to say good things about me too. And so there's this folklore that beats or like, you know, they sleep under their desk or like, and so there's like these hero war stories of people celebrating something this debaucherous lifestyle where you're ruining your health.

It's like, oh my God, we just can't believe how great they are. And so it's very hard to not become that. And so I fell prey to that. When I was in the cultural mindset, I too would grind. Like I wouldn't exercise. I didn't eat well. I got fat. I wouldn't sleep. And you kind of have this trademark haggard look as an entrepreneur, right? You're You just are beat up.

And that's kind of like the brand. And so I sold my company and I was like, oh my God, that just absolutely destroyed me. And it was, I mean, it was in service of another goal, but still like, and entrepreneurs know what I'm talking about, right? This is so common. It's almost like you walk in and you just behave a certain way. You're not even sure why.

Yeah, I'm saying that it cuts on two levels. I'm saying that before the 21st century started, it was very reasonable to say, live fast, die young, right? It was guaranteed you're gonna die. So like go to war and be a hero, like and die young, great. Be an epic entrepreneur, die young, be an epic politician, die young and let your memory live on, great. Like compete for don't die in memory.
