And that's all you ever had control of ever anyway. And so I believe a lot of my rise again, my second rise, if you will, my return, my restoration is tied to character because the people who knew me before are still with me today.
When I was released, I had hundreds of people that I know, contacts, even victims, people who lost money that know I had nothing to do with it, come to me and say, you're starting over. Do it with me. You're starting over. Let's do it together. I know you need a break. Consider what I'm doing.
All of these moments happened, and I attribute it, and I wouldn't have known it ahead of time, but I certainly wouldn't have planned for this to occur. But you realize that how you manage the difficult times will determine everything. where you land when the storm clouds pass. Like, like either you grovel and become a sourpuss and become a victim and become, this is, this is terrible.
You should never done this to me. I, government has taken me down a road I should never been on. Or, You say, you know, I can't do anything about this. I've got to focus on the controllables. Control the controllables. What I can't control is how I treat people. What I can't control is how I manage this situation. What I can't control is my spirit, my... My spirit cannot be taken.
You can take everything from me, but you can't take my soul. I have to give that to you. And so you make some decisions in the difficulty that frankly are part of the chemistry that's already you. It just doesn't get tested until this moment. And it's in that testing you realize, you know what? You can have the reputation. I'll take the character. Because with character, you got it all.
You got it all. And you're totally at peace with who you are day and night and your friends who you're friendly with. They're the friends who know you. It's not the guys who want to get in the plane. It's not the guys who want to get to Augusta, go to the Super Bowl with you because you're rich. It's the guys who love you, who know you, who can look you in the eye.
You're their trustee on their family estate because they know who you are. So I think the lesson for me that I couldn't have learned unless I got to the backside of it is character is all that mattered anyway.
Man, if they want to find you, James, where do they find you? You know, I have a podcast, Inside Out with James Catledge. It's on YouTube, Apple, Spotify. The whole story is told there in small, bite-sized increments. It's an honor to be with you today, and I appreciate being a guest here.
