I'm not at the sort of escape velocity yet with those two things that I want to get good at.

Um, when I was younger, he used to play street fighter and street fighter.

Uh, when you pick your character, you basically pick a character for two reasons.

One is based on appearance.

You want the big character, you want the small character, you want the, you know, the woman or the man or whatever the character might be.

The second element is you'll get the scores and either they're great at defense and then they're bad at offense or they're great at jumping, but they're bad at kicking.

I think kind of life is like that a little bit too, that you have to sort of pick what you want to be good at.

You cannot be good at jumping, defense, offense, kicking, punching in sort of the metaphor of Street Fighter.

You have to pick.

And I think that that's kind of what prioritization is.

It's deciding what you want and then reminding yourself of what you want.

There are things that,

Every now and then I get a glimmer of, have I traveled the world enough?

Probably not.

Do I take my kids on enough month-long trips, safaris?

I don't.

I can't do that right now.

I have to select what I'm going to do.

I can't be everything to everyone.

I've kind of made peace with that years ago, that at this particular phase of my life, this is what I need and this is what I want.
