When there is a breakdown or something that frustrates me, or I'm not perfect, I'm human.

If something makes me angry, I might sit in it for a few minutes, but then I'm like, all right, can I act upon this so I stop feeling this?

not react, but can I act upon it or can I course correct?

And if not, then I can't do anything about it.

There's nothing I can do.

I can't change some system.

You know, it's like, if I can, let me act on it and feel empowered and then go back to appreciation and gratitude.

The best way I can, you know?

I used to feel pretty helpless though in my early 20s because I was like broke and dependent on people and felt like, oh, I can't make any money and everyone's out to get me.

The system.

No one wants to hire me, all these things.

I felt all those frustrations.

And then I started meeting mentors that I was like, oh, they have certain skills that I would like to acquire.

Let me learn from them on how they acquired them.

And okay, let me go spend a week every year learning how to do public speaking.

Let me go learn these other skills that it helped them generate financial freedom.

I had to learn how to read and write in my 20s.

I wrote a book when I was 25 and I had a mentor who had written a number of books and he worked with me

every week on learning how to write.

Wow.
