He's doing that intentionally because that's where you need to, self-reliance is the biggest problem that I face.
And because I've got very little power, I've got very little ability.
I've only seen the world through this little lens that I want to be able to see all of reality.
And so to do that, I need to surrender my little power.
Yeah, redefining success and failure, for sure.
Like the Hall of Fame linebacker, Brian Urlacher, told me that I asked him, what is the difference between you and the best performers in the NFL that you've ever competed against?
And he said, most NFL players, they make a mistake and they get tentative.
I make a mistake and I don't get tentative.
And so that's that courage.
That's that willingness to fail.
That's that relentlessness that's needed.
Yeah, so failure, that's all obviously a big part of it.
And, you know, there's one of the principles, the presupposition is there's no failure, only feedback.
The emotional part is the issue.
If there's no emotional aspect to it, then, you know, what does it matter if you fail?
What happens with self-centeredness is that I need to be thinking about my life in order to be, just to be safe.
I got to look both ways when I cross the street and feed myself and do all these things.
But the problem is when I think about myself, my subconscious, which is designed to protect me, reminds me of all the potential dangers and all my mistakes.
And that discomfort causes me to think, I want to feel better about myself.
And so I would compare myself to others.
