Yes.

A hundred percent.

Yep.

Well, one of the things that I found when I was going through that process is I

I wasn't very kind to myself at times.

And one of the things that you talk about in the book is our need to becoming a friend to ourself.

What does that actually look like from your perspective beyond just being nice to yourself?

Eric, I didn't want to rehash your whole journey because we went through that in detail in the first episode.

So that's something people can go back and listen to.

But something I did want to talk about is I have two kids.

My older one is about to turn 28 in May, which I'm dumbfounded about.

Well, isn't it crazy how fast life goes?

Well, he is very interested in a career in music, and he also has a degree in business.

But I think a ton of kids this age, yours is probably telling you the same thing, feels really out of whack right now because of all the digital disruptions that are hitting them.

But I was hoping you might go back

to your 28 year old self, the one who somehow got into one of the first internet companies.

And when you think about change and how you embrace that or how you need to think about life, like what advice do you give to kids that are this age?

Yeah.

As you were talking about that, for some reason, my mind went to Garth Brooks and I'm thinking about the music video where the challenger accident is playing in the background.

And sometimes would you really want to know the future?
