#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

So that's the second half of life transition for people.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And the way I characterize the big challenge of that, and these are all

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

Not all necessarily rich hedge fund people from New York, but we've got plenty of those.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

It could be a nonprofit leader, but they're all distinguished people who had impact and enjoyed doing that impactful thing well and got into it and were in the flow.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And now they don't necessarily want to be that person anymore.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

So it's the shift from role to soul.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

So the shift from I'm a role-based person.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

I'm really good at this gymnast thing.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

I'm really good at the surgery thing.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And I still value that, but it's not first and foremost where my identity wants to come from now.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And as I move away from that, you know, it's sticky.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And boy, I'm really good at making that version of me work.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And that's where kind of the shift into a greater maturity is a very elective move.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

And it starts anywhere from 30 to never.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

Not much before 30 because you don't get a neocortex until you're 27 or 28, a little later in men, big surprise.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

But look, you don't get a Buddha, you don't get a Moses, you don't get a Jesus until 30, 40 in Moses' case.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

It takes a while to make a person.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

But once you get past making a person, then you've got to build an ego before you can transcend it.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

You've got to have a life container before you can empty it.

Modern Wisdom
#1062 - Dave Evans - It’s time to rethink your entire life plan

So that task of turning yourself into a person in your 20s, 30s, and 40s is a really important task.
