Yeah. I'm going to say a cliche, but it's a cliche for a reason. You know, this expression, you can't be what you can't see. It's very true because when you haven't yet experienced something in your life, it is so difficult to imagine that it could possibly happen for you.
So I am curious, do you know of anybody, whether you've spoken to them so you know them personally, or maybe they're more aspirational, where they seem to have made a living, a really good living, while also not burning out? Of course, we don't know the true story of behind the scenes, but is there a good model to follow possibly to remind us that we can do this, right?

That many things can be true at once. You can do good and do well and provide for your family while also not burning out. Do we know anybody who's done that?

Yeah, okay. I'm about to say something that I want you and everybody watching, listening to listen up. It is not about being qualified, okay? Making money, doing well in our careers, growing our businesses. I wish it was whoever is the most talented person makes the most money or whoever works the hardest, whoever's the most qualified, the best person gets the reward. And it is so not the case.

You know who gets the reward? The people who play the game, okay? Who can really... optimize within the system. Here's your problem, my problem, and a lot of our problems. We hate the system. So we hate the game. So we go, screw it. I'm not playing. Well, I'm not trying to be broke here and neither are you. So what I'm going to share with you is a whole process. Okay.

And we're going to go through step by step. And you're going to tell me all the things you hate about my process. And we're going to work together through that resistance, right? Because trying to sort of do things for the aspiration, they never work, right? Obstacles are always greater than the aspirations. So we'll make the plan around the roadblocks and the resistance.

But we have got to dig into this system that currently exists and find our own way, find our own way of playing it while also kind of on the side. And I'll get more specific about this in a minute.

And that's why we have to have outlets where we can connect with each other and have catharsis, et cetera, et cetera. But I think many things are true at once. We can do more than we realize, but we have to do it smart, okay? Because we cannot burn out. That is not an option. Neither one of us can literally afford to burn out. Right. We're both breadwinners for our families here.
