Builders, Budgets, and Beers · When Your Systems Don’t Match Your Strategy with Dirk van der Velde · 28 May 2025 podcast

They control their emotions.

They don't get too high.

and they don't get too low.

And so I would say, as you continue to grow, the only way to, you know, to get to it is to go through it.

And I would just say, keep yourself as much as you can.

Keep yourself riding as consistent as possible.

Don't get too high.

Don't get too low.

Know that things come in cycles.

And if you're in a bad time right now, as long as you don't quit, it'll only get better.
