So I think in personal life, we have the opportunity to really think about inflection points. You want to think about these things as what I'll call options. An option is a relatively small investment you're making today that buys you the right, but not the obligation to make a bigger investment in the future. And we do this in real life all the time, right?

So we go to school, we invest in a skill building course, we agree to go to a training program. We do these things, not that we know exactly what's going to happen, but we think it'll create opportunities in the future.

So I think what you want to think to yourself is, is the cost of this, and I mean cost just in terms of effort and emotion and exhaustion and everything, is it got a big upside or a not so big upside?

Well, I think when it comes to personal success, there's a bunch of really interesting research that's done about what makes people feel happy, you know, what motivates people. And Dan Pink talks about, you know, you want a sense of agency in your life. You want to know that You have the right to make choices and have control. You want to gain a sense of mastery.

And that could be many different things. For some people, mastery is woodworking. And then they go very happily to the rest of their formal job in an insurance company and fill out forms all day long. And that's fine with them. And then the last is a sense of purpose, a sense of motivation.

And I think a lot of research suggests that if you are in communities where you are of service to others and you feel that your life is has a greater purpose that you are, you tend to be more satisfied with that life. You tend to find greater fulfillment in it.

So when it comes to translating inflection points from the business world to the personal, I think one of the differences is that it's so much more associated with your values and what makes you feel that you've made a contribution and you're feeling fulfilled and you're doing well by other human beings.
