Lewis Howes

Like this is only going to support my future self, accomplish the dreams and be ready.

You know, so I'm,

I'm staying ready so I don't need to get ready.

It's like I'm preparing and being ready now.

So when the time happens, man, now it's easy.

In two and a half years, now it's natural because I've put in the last four years of reps to prepare for this.

Just like it's natural for you to be on stage.

Sure, maybe there's a little nerves right before, like you want to make sure it's a good job, but...

Spent 20 years behind the podium now getting reps to be able to dance and sing and do breakouts and coach and come back and remember what you're saying and have Joe, all these different things and make it a beautiful experience over five days, right?

It's easy now because you put in 20 years.

So for me, that's been, it's still not a natural state of being, but it's something I show up to every single time I have the opportunity to lead, even though it's not something I would normally do, but it's what my future self demands of me.

I love this.

You know, it's like the future goal demands I get out of my comfort zone every time.

Same thing with the family stuff too.

I was very comfortable.

For 15 years, I lived in a two bedroom apartment and I would just kind of bounce around from apartment to apartment, maybe spend a little bit more on a nicer apartment, but it was like,

My preference is minimal, two-bedroom apartment, nice.

Okay, maybe I have a doorman now, but it's like I don't need bigger, right?

I was like I liked my comfort zone.

I knew where everything was.
