So my 30s was very much just getting a lot of clarity and focus. It's like, okay, I accomplished all these things. What do I want to use this stuff for? What is the point of all of this? What's the point of selling 20 million books?

What's the point of having millions of readers? What are we driving towards over the next 20 years? Because after that, I'm probably done. I'm on a beach somewhere playing pickleball.

It's funny, when you look at the psychological research on passion and enjoying your job, what they find is that people get causation backwards. So the assumption is like, well, if I just find what I love, then I'll get really good at that thing. But it's actually the other way around. People tend to fall in love with the thing they're really good at or the thing they're really rewarded for.
