The life that we live.

I think we should judge our self-worth on the value we have in the lives of others.

Do other people think of you as a good friend, a good sibling, a good son or daughter, a good father, a good mother?

good colleague, good teammate, you know, I think that I would rather be, I would rather judge myself, uh, on that.

And again, we're dopamine tangible driven animals, and it's much easier to judge myself based on number in a bank account.

Cause I can see it and I can count it.

And if there's a lot in there, it must be valuable that there's little in there that must be unvaluable, which is nonsense.

Cause I can tell you, I know a lot of rich people who have no value in the world.

Um, um, and rich people.

aren't necessarily the hardest working.

I know a lot of very rich people who are lazy.

And I don't criticize them for that.

Just don't think that because someone's rich that they're incredibly hardworking.

And please stop calling the homeless lazy.

You go be homeless for a day.

See how lazy you have to be to survive with no money, no resources.

Good luck.

The laziness, that's not it.

You actually have to work hard at surviving when you have nothing.

And I think we have all of these metrics screwed up and they're all based on what I can count and what I can see rather than the value I have in the lives of others.
