Thank you. I think just the way you took everything that you went through to literally catapult you to law school and more and more and more. And we're going to talk about the more and more because I want to make sure that's so clear. Because, I mean, I can't keep up with you, Mr. Matt.

Like, we're in touch through LinkedIn, and every time I look at you, you're doing something else incredible again. Thank you. So take us with you a little bit, because you somehow see your mom. That gives you that energy to be able to go to college, go to law school. What happens, Matt?

No, it's beautiful. There's so many lessons in this. And I think, yes, life of resentment and victim mentality will never serve you. A lot of us do this with kids. A lot of us do this with parents, right? Like the last thing you want is to do them a favor and then... feel like you're always in victim and resentment and never be present. So we do that, right? So I love that story.

I think it's just relevant for so many listening. Thank you for sharing because this gives me chills also in the book. But so Matt, after this, you... planned roles with the New York Jets. But even there, there was some hard moments too. Like it seems like you were basically having a lot of tests in your life, if I may say so.

I know. Because you somehow bypass all these tests and continue, which is incredible. Because you never let that... go into that victim mentality. I think Tom Bilyeu, which I just had on the show a few weeks ago, he says, if you want to be successful, don't ask what's the minimum I need to do, ask what's the maximum I can bear. And I think there's an element there and a pattern that I see

And I think what you just shared is so, so important because I think it's also the muscle that you need to build in order to create extraordinary things. And many times that muscle is built when things are hard. Now, you somehow managed to have meetings with multiple presidents. You have a list of quotes on your book, including Arnold Schwarzenegger and Jay Shetty and Mark Cuban.

How do you get, and this is the book, Burn the Boats, for those who are looking at, how do you get to such personalities? What is your trick, I guess? Because I think a lot of people are very intrigued by how do you open up opportunities for yourself?
