I haven't got it all figured out.

The all figured out I want to talk about in a moment.

The second thing I want you to, that I got is that I don't have a clue.

Those are extreme states.

So let me relieve you.

You'll never get it all figured out.

My name's John.

I'm your friend.

We can never connect the dots looking forward.

If you want figured out, you've got to get at 79 and go back, and it makes sense.

You can connect the dots looking backwards.

You can't connect forward.

So all figured out is too heavy of a burden to carry.

Be just understanding that you won't get all figured out.

The flip side of that is I don't have a clue.

You don't want to be there either.

You'll want to have a clue.
