I don't take any of those moments as being a bad thing.

It's not a negative to feel overwhelmed because you have responsibility.

People depend on you.

People are relying on you to do something.

Great.

The thing that people do is not actually leading to where they want to go.

So if I thought that it was going to require me to work out two hours a day in the gym and only eat chicken and rice and never have any of the things that I love to never get a six pack, I'm not going to do that.

But if I think that by doing this work, that's going to be hard and I'm going to hate and it's going to suck, that I can actually get what I want and my life would be changed because I'd actually have a six pack and I'd feel confident and I'd be able to buy the clothes that I'd want and I'd just be part of the very small percentage of the population that has one, then the process of me going to the gym early at five o'clock before my kids get up

wouldn't burn me out, I would recognize that this is a step that's necessary to get to my goal.

And at which point when the goal is there, you might change your mind and you might have a different goal.

But when people win, they are rarely burnt out at that moment.

I've watched business owners sell their businesses for hundreds of millions of dollars

I've watched them get hundreds of millions of dollars in their bank account.

And that feeling of celebration and joy happens to stay around for a little while until that thing kicks in, which is that individual's potential to help somebody, to solve more problems, to be able to make a larger impact.

And so that end goal does end up moving.

The goalpost ends up moving.

And there's actually nothing wrong with that.

Despite the world wanting to tell you that there is something wrong with the fact that you're moving the goalpost, I don't think there's anything wrong with it.

And you only really get burnt out if you don't see how the sacrifices that you're making are actually going to lead you to the six-pack.

If you're going to be overweight forever, then of course I'm just going to eat candy and chips and all the things that I love to eat.
