And you go to the gym probably 45 minutes to an hour a day?

And that's four days a week?

I'm suggesting eight minutes a day.

Eight minutes a day.

That is available for all of us.

And if we don't have eight minutes a day, something's wrong with the way we're designing our life and or we don't really understand the value of it.

We don't do things we don't value.

And so if we don't understand the value, that makes sense to me.

And that's why I point to the greats.

It takes a little bit of time to get the feelings that you're looking for.

Whether you're in the gym, you don't go to the gym and all of a sudden,

I don't know, have 10% body fat or something.

Like it takes time, right?

Same is true for mental training.

You don't do a handful of meditations or a handful of whatever and be like, I feel so happy in my life.

It takes time.

I would say that meditation, I think the narrative is clear by now, the value of it.

Eight minutes of meditation a day would be a great way to start.

Eight minutes of a conversation with somebody of wisdom would be an interesting play to start, but usually those are a little bit longer.

Eight minutes of breathing work, it's a good place to start.
