I know it sounds very simple, but I got a bit fascinated by time after that.
Yeah, yeah.
I think it was the Queen's, when the Queen died.
I can't remember exactly when that was.
And I was kind of just on my laptop and there was this lots of news stories about it and this little online calculator.
It was like a fun, playful, you type in all this stuff about your age, demographics, etc.
And a number would pop out to tell you about when you might live to, because obviously the Queen lived a very long life.
So a lot of the news stories were around that.
So I was just mindlessly doing this.
And then this number popped out and I was like, oh, my God, my life's half over.
And it took something as silly as that for me to be like, there's so much that it feels misaligned.
And I think that we only have time and energy.
Those are kind of the two units of stuff that we have to work with.
And when you're not, the only word I can think to describe it as alignment, like when you're living in alignment, you're what you believe in, what you enjoy and your value system.
And it's all wrapped up in your day to day.
And I just felt really misaligned.
And then sort of from that point onwards, I threw some grenades into my life and like.
left my job, left my marriage, like just blew up everything, which I don't know if it was the right thing to do or not.
But then kind of dug myself out of the debris.
And it was the biggest teacher, I think.
