I'll do what you say. So I moved to Toronto, lived with my brother, went to real estate school, got my real estate license, went to work for him. And over six months, I made $31,000 for me. And he also made $31,000 for him because I gave him half of what I made. And he kept teaching me over the next year after that.

And I ended up making $300,000 gross, gave him, I think it was $150,000 for him, $150,000 for me. And I died and gone to heaven at 21 because he taught me a process. And I never had a process. So that changed my life. And so we can start with some of those structures and understanding maybe my journey over the last 43 years since then, or 44 years since then.

Sure. We used to believe that we were born and scientists called this hardwired. You know, you're born and you're just like your mother, you're just like your father, or you're just like your grandfather or your aunt, right? And we know, you know, through a lot of the research now that we all have these genetic propensities. Like when we're born, we have these character traits. Some kids are shy.

Some kids are aggressive. Some, you know, might be a little meaner than others. Some are kind and passive. So we know we have propensities. But we also know that a child is not born with a self-image or beliefs that they're good enough, not good enough, too white, too black, too Asian, whatever. We don't have any beliefs. We don't have an identity. We don't have a fear of anything.

And we certainly don't have any knowledge or skills. You know, we might have, or not might, we have the propensity to maybe suckle on mom's boob, right, to get milk on a bottle, but that's a genetic, you know, millions of years of evolution, autonomic Part of our being.

So when we talk about neuroplasticity, it was only about 25 years ago, a guy by the name of Dr. Michael Merzenich, who's a friend now, discovered because we were able to look deeper into the human brain. And analyze a human brain in real time or through slicing a brain after somebody was dead, we can actually see that our brain has got cells. We know that.

I call them like marbles, like 75 billion marbles. And these marbles make connections. And we used to believe that we were born hardwired. These connections were already there. Right. They discovered that that's not true. We're creating connections from the time we are born. Every time we hear, see, smell, taste, touch, a parent says, you're really wonderful. You're terrible.
