Yeah, so I think, you know, people think that like, and I'm sure you've seen this too, you know, I mean, I can see that you're speaking from experience with the people that you've worked with.
But I think a lot of times, you know, we think that helping people may be hard from a medical perspective, from a therapy perspective.
But once you start to see success stories, right?
Once you start to see what human beings are truly capable of.
And for me, the biggest thing is,
I think most of the reasons that people struggle in life is because they're not taught how to live it.
Right.
So we have so much formal education in like mathematics and chemistry.
We have zero formal education in emotions.
We have zero formal education in the ego.
And if you really look at like we have zero formal education and like finding purpose.
Right.
But if you look at like the things that make a human being happy, healthy, resilient, we don't actually teach them that.
But we'll put them in school for eight hours a day for at least 12 years to teach them everything except for how to live life.
And so I find that a very low quantity of education can help people an immense amount.
Absolutely.
So what do you think is, what has been, if an addiction is basically a solution, right?
It's a problematic solution, but it's a solution.
What do you think is growing on the inside that's causing people to move towards addiction?
I think it makes a lot of sense.
