And this, I believe, is where the pride comes.

I believe the ego comes not because I'm afraid of what I want and who I really want to be, but because I don't know if what I want is good enough because I just compared myself to somebody else.

And now I got to go do better than them.

It's not okay for me to want this nice life with my family because that guy's got twice what I've got.

So I got to go get that now.

So comparison, and especially because I, if I don't really know what I want, then I'm just looking around.

If I go to the store and I go shopping and I go there because I'm, I am intentionally shopping for one thing.

I'm showing up at Foot Locker, I'm buying some Jays and I'm going home.

That's it.

That's my objective.

I walk into the door closest to Foot Locker.

I walk into the Foot Locker.

I ask for that specific shoe in my size.

I try it on, put it on, buy it and walk out.

And I'm super content and very happy.

And I got exactly what I wanted.

But if I just know I want a shoe and I start looking around at everybody else's shoes and I start walking through the mall, do you know what is going to happen?

I'm going to find 14 other things that I think I might want that I never thought of before that are going to lead me to a place to spend too much money, be very unproductive, incredibly inefficient, and ultimately leave me with credit card debt, a stuff I don't actually want or wear, and now I'm stuck in a hole.

And that is how people are running their businesses.

They're running it reactive to something because they're not taking the time to know exactly what they want and who they are.
