George Washington, this is something that fascinates me about him, is that when he was appointed to be sort of the head of the army in the war against the British, he had never commanded a large army before. He'd worked in the Virginia militia, but he didn't have any like big general nationwide experience, not even at like a lower level where you often sort of work your way up.

And so on his way to fight in the Revolutionary War, He had to stop by a bookstore and buy a book on how to be a general. And I was like, hmm, there's a lot to unpack there. George Washington had to buy a how-to book on how to be a general. There was such a thing back then? Yes. I mean, it wasn't like how to be a general for dummies, black and yellow.

But if you think about it, he would have had to go into a small shop where all of the goods are kept behind the counter. He would have had to ask for a specific book on how to become a general. And I think it's a great lesson for today in that how many of us feel like I'm not ready to get started because I don't know how to do that thing yet. Yeah.

That's right. I'll wait till I finish the degree or have worked at that company for five years. When in fact, history smiles the most kindly on people who just went for it. People who just tried stuff, who just did something no one else had done. Sometimes they fail at it. George Washington had failures. In fact, he was almost fired from being the head of the Revolutionary Army in
