Like what you're doing in private is ultimately what ends up getting esteemed in public.

And what I've learned now retroactively, it was the work in private that ended up getting praised in public.

Everything.

Everything.

Well, what I've learned, dude, in talking to you and watching you, my own life, studying from brilliant minds that have come before us as we try to achieve our own, the greatest creations, individually and collectively, are the synthesis of different creations.

I think about Velcro.

Velcro was created, and I'll paraphrase, but Velcro was created when somebody was walking through the wilderness, if I'm not mistaken, and those little annoying pricklies, those little pricklies got stuck to a sock.

And they were like, well, if a prickly can adhere to a sock as an adhesive, why can't I create something?

So you take the concept of a prickly and the concept of a sock and you create Velcro.

And my life was the synthesis of,

NFL locker room, predominantly a white private school, a predominantly urban NFL locker room.

Synthesize those together and create content perspective.

Here's a perspective.

Bingo.

Yeah.

So everybody just has to figure out what two things can they combine together to become that greatest version of themselves.

Man, I love that question.

I love that question.

Dude, I don't believe in goals.

I no longer believe in goals.
