I'm stealing from someone else.
This guy goes, um, how do I become happy?
I've tried my entire life.
I want to be happy.
This is a journey of happiness.
And the guru guy looked at him and he goes, is there any happiness in that pursuit?
He's like, no.
He's like, how about this?
If you want to be happy, stop doing all the shit that makes you unhappy.
And therefore the only thing that will be left will be that.
So it sounds like that's the approach with the opposite of the values is going through and say, okay, this is the stuff that triggers me as non-values.
Oh, if I remove all of those, I'm going to be left with what actually resonates with me.
Close, because I've done a lot of work.
And before we get into this, people, therapy is the gift you give yourself.
Please go to therapy.
It's very helpful for you.
For me, mine comes down to effectiveness.
I value effectiveness above all else.
So for me, if someone's in line and they don't know what they need to order, you're being ineffective.
If you're cutting in line in front of all these people, I'm like, you have now violated effectiveness.
