She never applied them to anything.

She never really got anywhere or did anything.

She had big dreams of what she thought she should have and never really got there because she was so, like, emotionally unregulated and kind of chaotic.

So...

I just kind of saw that, no, there's not this like thing where you can just even the playing field and make it all equal for everyone.

That's not how it works.

There's also a thing that if you're locked up in something like Marxism, if that's your ideology, you're in this constant struggle with the rest of the world all the time.

where you want to bend it to your ideology.

You want to change it.

And so even if you're a very intelligent person, your daily mindset is struggle.

Your daily mindset is conflict and existential crisis.

That is exactly, that was the picture that was laid in front of me.

I go to dad's house and he's like, he started a business after the divorce and he's like hustling.

He's working 12 to 14 hour days.

He's

doing everything he can to make it work.

He's not complaining.

He's just like, this is what you got to do.

If you want to make it, if you want to do your own thing and prove that you're good at what you do, you have to compete.

You have to get out there.
