It means that we have a financial thermostat.
And if your financial thermostat, like a room thermostat, there's a program invisibly running in the background that monitors the current temperature that if it drops below, the heaters kick in.
If it goes above, the air conditioning kicks in.
So if your financial thermostat is set for $50,000 a year and all of a sudden you drop to $30,000, the heaters kick in.
You get motivated.
You're up early.
You're hustling.
You're getting out there.
You're doing something.
You're following up on sales calls.
You're figuring it out.
You certainly go to $100,000 a year and you're now comfortable, but that internal programming is running that says, too hot for you up here.
Air conditioning kicks in.
So what happens?
You stop following up on leads.
You don't get as motivated.
You're not getting up as early.
You're not putting as much time in.
And you self-sabotage.
And we see this played out in every lottery winner example you can give.
