Yeah. And so I do think it was that sort of, it's sort of like the water hitting the rock and then it's the Grand Canyon, you know, like reading the self-help books. Like I did, I had started that a couple of years before the garage. So I was sort of priming myself. And then finally I was just like, I'll do anything. What was the book that really inspired you the most?

The Science of Getting Rich by Wallace Waddles. I mean, not only because it's like this big, cause I'm super impatient, but I mean, it's super cryptic. It's like, it's all about the universe being a thinking stuff. And when you impress your thoughts into the thinking stuff, it becomes real and material world. And I just, I just, it really, really, really spoke to me.

Oh, I'm so happy you asked because I'm... talk about this line all the time is to think what you want to think is to think the truth, regardless of appearances. So this is everything, right? So mindset is everything. So regardless of appearances, regardless of the fact that I'm living in a garage in an alley, driving a car with no grill, like those are the appearances, but to think what you want.

And I think the want is so key too, because that's your, that's your authenticity. That's not like thinking what other people think you should do and how you should live your life to think what you want. the purpose that you were put on planet Earth to live out, that's the truth.

Yeah, pretty much. I mean, I was a freelance writer hustling my butt off. And then like when I really did the math, I was like, the amount of time I spent hustling for this gig and they don't pay that well, like magazine articles, come on.

Like when you're building a company or when you're doing something like it is exhausting. And but if it's still exciting and fun and has meaning, then yeah. Yeah.
