you go home sometimes you go to old friends or people that you knew and they go they always put like a thing on you like oh so when's this going to happen or you know or like what's going to be your break or you know or oh how was that show it wasn't that many people there or something like that like because they're they don't do anything with their lives they're too afraid they're afraid to change even any people are afraid to ask for a promotion

People are afraid every step of the way.

And I've been building on that.

And so you have to... They do it to kind of make you think like... To bring you... Make you feel a little crappy about... Shitty about your circle.

I'm like, I don't know if that... Yeah, that didn't work out so well.

But I'm still doing it.

I'm still...

I'm still going to try.

It's so embarrassing what I do.

It's like I like for so long, you're just you're embarrassed and afraid of being embarrassed, you know, and you're doing shows for no one and that didn't work or that worked or like, you know.

even 12 people who really like my stuff and I would like that like early on well there's a you know a bunch of empty seats or whatever and people be like oh you know sorry I couldn't go whatever it's like it's always embarrassing like doing this weird thing and it's always terrifying to be embarrassed but I do it and these people can't even you know they haven't worked that muscle at all to the point that they look back at their lives and what have they done

And by the way, some people love doing, like, it's not like, I don't say what have they done with their lives in a sense, like, I know many people happy in their careers and stuff like that and whatever they have done with their lives, but people who have unrequited

ambitions in any way, shape or form, it's very difficult.

Now, for most people, fear is warranted.

If you're poor, you can't just, you might, other systems have made it so it is, you are punished for asking for more and doing more.

So there's a lot of nuances.

I'm just talking in particular, the people who maybe have cushy, you know, I had friends who went into finance, obviously, and you know, what are you doing?

And

And kind of judging me.

I'm talking about that particular subset.
