Well, I come from Israel. I like that.

We're very direct, so we don't know how to show your code. But you talk about balancing career and family, which I think is also part of something that I think is important to talk about, because I think we see a lot of people with massive burnout. We see people that, you know, are on the brink of suicide because they just can't go any further.

We see people that, you know, are on the brink of suicide because they just can't go any further.
And again, we see some people that just want more, right? More recognition, more accomplishment, more impact, whatever it is. So we see both spectrum. But how do you see balancing career and family and all of that was a big career?

I love that. And I think one of the things that we share is I do believe that maybe the ultimate balance, it doesn't really exist. Like I think life is in phases and different things will be important for you in different phases of your life. You just need to know what your focus is and just make sure that you're all in in whatever it is. I think the problem is our mindset around it.

Oh, but I haven't done enough. And it's that victim. Like I haven't been enough with my kids or I haven't been. And then you're just not happy anywhere. So it's really more about just making that decision, knowing what's important for you and just making sure that you can go all in on that. And it's sometimes the quality, not necessarily the quantity of time.

Wow, that's a big lesson. Thank you for sharing that, Bill. I think we all needed to hear a little bit of that. Based on all your experience, if you're looking back in time, what would be an advice to your younger self? Again, you have your book for emergent leaders. So what would you say to those emergent leaders, I guess?

I think this is just so, so, so important, especially today, because it's not about what society wants you to do. It's really, you're going to need to, like you say, find your true. I usually just say, I want to have fun. And that's a big motto in Leap Academy. That's, I think, you know, in our culture, everybody knows in the team, fun is number one, because when fun will happen...

The client experience will happen. The growth will happen. It's all going to fall into place. When we're not having fun and everything is a slug, it's never going to happen. So I personally do take the backpack and travel the world. And again, just do whatever is right for you.

I don't know if my kids will, but I'm just saying do whatever is right for you, but don't be afraid of taking bold action and just enjoying the journey because it is a long journey and it's beautiful.
