Like you look at the people,
Like there's always two versions of everything, right?
There's the drifter and the driven version, right?
Napoleon Hill talks about that with the devil.
Like there's people that drift and there's people that are driven, right?
And it's interesting because like every version, like there's always like a positive and negative of everything, right?
The thing I wanna talk about in relation to what Napoleon Hill is talking about here is people are seeking pleasure instead of fulfillment, right?
There's always like,
there's always the the driven way and there's the drifter way napoleon talks about drifting and then uh about being a non-drifter someone who's driven right and so what people are searching for and what they're seeking is they're looking for pleasure over fulfillment right and um they they want the reward without the work and this happens in tons of areas of your life right again i think one of the easiest ones is like pornography is like it's like you get the reward without the work versus having an actual relationship with somebody who you love right it takes the work to get the actual reward
You look at this in relationships, right?
There's social media.
You get the reward without the work or it's actually going out and talking to people and building relationships.
A lot of times reading is the same thing.
Reading is like, is you get the reward without the work versus actually going out there and doing the thing.
Going to school.
I have friends who go to school and they get their bachelor's and their master's and their doctorate because they're so scared of like actually doing the work, right?
They want to just keep drifting and keep going through things versus actually going and getting the reward.
And so there's this thing where our brains by default always try to slip
to get the reward without doing the work.
And so they get the pleasure without fulfillment, right?
