But you can read all of my books and you still wouldn't know how to ride a bicycle unless you get on and you fall once or twice and then you find your balance and then you practice writing and you get really good at it. And for that dimension of the learning, you can't beat Brandon's clubs for fun, for learning, for tears and laughter and practice.

And so if you kind of like the ideas that you're reading about or learning about in the app and you want to supercharge a little bit your forward movement. So where things really start happening in your life, this is a great way to do it. And I often have said that the best things in life are free. And that's why I've always promoted AA. Is AA perfect? Not at all.

They're very screwed up, to tell you the truth. But I can tell you this, if you've got an addiction, a hardcore addiction, you go to AA, they're going to give you something I could never give you in a session. And I can give you things that they could never give you. And so one plus one equals three.

And your groups aren't free except to people who need them, but they have that same power and probably more punch than an AA group would. but they're dedicated to depression and anxiety and other kinds of problems that are also very painful and disabling to people.

Yeah, that's the neat thing. That's the neat thing about it, that measuring things. Most therapists hate it and refuse to do it. And they're sure missing out on the measurement. the most clever secret of all to how we can grow as teachers and as therapists by getting data and looking at the data and seeing what turns people on, what turns them off.

And then it gives us kind of a, you might say, a competitive advantage.

And once you've experienced the death of the self, then it's no longer hard to get negative feedback because you don't have any territory to defend. I heard through the grapevine that David doesn't get all of the credit for that book, Feeling Great, that he had some editors who worked tirelessly to go through that and give him tips on how to revise it and improve it.

Do you know who any of those people might have been, Brandon?

Oh, you're the same Brandon. Feeling great about five times. And I was so grateful for all the heart and brilliant input you put in there. I remember you put in that poem that kind of about some medieval poem about the great death. Do you remember that one? I remember.

That is so beautiful and so neat that you remember that. And it sounds just like what we're trying to bring about with Team CBT. When instead of beating up on yourself with all of these, I'm not good enough and all these negative messages, you suddenly discover first.
