Sometimes I need to repeat that thought. Sometimes I need to take an action to solve the problem. Or I need to go call that person. I need to go figure that thing out over there. So those two questions save me the stress after I let myself feel the pain. Got it. Is it fact or feeling? Yeah. Let's deal with the facts. Let's not get carried away with the story, right?

So those two questions save me the stress after I let myself feel the pain. Got it. Is it fact or feeling? Yeah. Let's deal with the facts. Let's not get carried away with the story, right?
Let's not build a whole story here. Let's not build a narrative that didn't happen. That didn't happen in my head. And second of all, if it's a story, then I need an affirmation. I've got to keep changing the script in my head. I'm here for a reason. I belong here. I deserve this. This is the right thing for me. That's going to solve that.

And if it's a fact, then only an action can solve a fact, right? You've got to go figure out what the fact is and solve it. And I think too many of us, we don't get into action because we don't focus on what I'm actually feeling. We don't get to the root of it. If you get to the root of it, you know what you need to do.

Totally. And that's where you have to focus on facts. Because your feelings will always lie to you. Your feelings will lie to you. Your feelings will make stuff up.

Don't believe everything your mind thinks and don't sign up and think it's the truth. It's going to keep tricking you because your brain is wired to spot the negative and to spot the worst and to spot everything that's going to go that way. So yeah, it's a muscle that you have to train for sure.

I didn't used to believe it was, but now I believe it's necessary. I don't even know if it's possible, but it's needed. I want the most successful people in the world to be the most purposeful people in the world. That would build a better world. Because otherwise we're seeing unhealthy, unwell people be leaders of the world. And I don't want to live in that world.

So I don't think it's a choice anymore. I think every one of us who has a purposeful bone in our body has to go and build something and make both work. Because that's what the world needs. The world needs organized people who are heart-centered. The world needs people who are strategic and really sincere and genuine.

The world needs people who are high performers and highly compassionate and graceful. By the way, you're all those things too. So it's not just about me. I feel that when I'm with you. I feel that with the people you work with. I feel that with friends we have in common. I know plenty of people that I think are wonderful people and operating at a really high level.

I also know people who are not doing that. And so you get best of both, but you get that everywhere. I just think it's what we need. And I think it's what we need to encourage. I think it's what needs to be taught at business school. I think it's what needs to be taught online.

Yeah, I think that, I mean, if you look at some of the greatest music artists in the world, their art comes from a really spiritual place. Like the artists I know, like the stuff that moves us, it didn't come from some strategic formulaic algorithm. It moved you because it came from someone's heart. There's a reason why that song made you cry.
