We take ourselves out of the race way ahead of time.

Oh, I love that, Alex. Oh my God. That was like slam dunk. You're actually nicer to your audience because we asked them to do the 50 reasons. So if 50 is 50 reasons, why you, why this, why now?

It's like all the skills, all your connections, all the conviction, almost like a brag bank, like all the reasons why you're going to be super fundamental for that, because you're just going to show up so differently. And I absolutely agree with you because it all starts with you. But let me take you there because I know some of our listeners will say, well, but maybe it's relevant for promotion.

But if I'm landing a job, I don't want to rub them in the wrong way. And I don't want them to hate me right off the bat. And I don't want them to think that I'm slimy. How do I negotiate at that point?

You just dodged a bullet. And I agree. Oh, my God. Like this episode is full of gold. Listeners, if this is helpful, do share it with others that need to hear it. But I will say, Alex, I think one of the key things that at least I find, I wonder what you're going to say next.

is always negotiate if you can face-to-face or in some kind of a Zoom or in some kind of a conversation, not through emails. I've seen a lot of cases where wording just gets off to the wrong areas and not really adjusted. Like people don't understand it well enough. So whenever possible, try to say, oh, my God, I want to work with you. I'm really excited about this opportunity.

Yes, I want to talk about some things. Can we hop on a call? So whenever we can steer it towards a conversation, because I think the conversation makes it a thousand percent easier to negotiate and to speak your truth and to also understand how they're seeing it, looking at their eyes, you know, and kind of adjusting. What do you think, Alex?

That's super interesting for me to hear. I think as an Israeli, I'm a little too blunt in emails. I should probably do it.

Alex, I love, love, love, love, love this. What are some challenges that maybe you went through as sort of an entrepreneur that you feel sharing will actually really help our audience?

I look at it a little different and it's so aligned. So I just love that because I love putting a little bit of a number on your time. And to me, if we're growing, I'm at a Leap Academy, for example. So we're one of the fastest growing companies now in America. But if we're looking at, okay, how do you get to 20 million, right?
