And all of my books, except for one, one's not fiction, read like a screenplay.

I write lots of dialogue, lots of quick moving parts.

So all of that screenwriting I did really factored into my books.

They like it because they're short, they're stories, and you keep going because you want to find out what's going to happen.

So it really paid off for me.

I had no idea.

Thank God for that though.

Yeah.

Right after college, I got a job at Bain, which was this ridiculously hard place to get a job in.

In fact, the year I applied, somebody wrote a book about the best places to work in America for college students.

And that was number one.

And somehow they must have had a really flawed interviewing process.

They offered me a job because I had no background that suggested that I would do well there.

And now that I realize what my working genius type is, it was exactly the wrong job for me.

But it paid well and everybody said it was good.

And they said, you're set for life.

And so I went there and for two years, I grinded Ilana.

It was so hard for me because it was knowing what I know now about the working genius.

Exactly.

You know what's funny?
