One of the downsides of that is that I cannot feel fully at home anywhere.

Do you feel at home?

Oh my God, Lex.

You know, this is not the advice, but there are very few moments in a career that feel as good as you think they are going to.

And there are very few moments of feeling really proud of yourself.

I feel like I often just feel like I'm not doing it well enough or big enough.

And now I just had one of those moments like hearing you say that.

I'm like, oh, I'm actually doing okay.

Yeah.

I think my main advice is enthusiasm is a much more potent fuel in life than duty.

And just because something is boring doesn't mean that it's important.

I kind of realized for myself that like I'm so much better at the things I enjoy.

But school doesn't really teach us how to stay excited about something and how to stay enthusiastic about something.

And if you can find that, then like you've got a goldmine of potential.

So I kind of had to reprogram myself to be like, just because this is fun doesn't mean that it's not important.

Because I had so much guilt about it in this weird way or where I'm like, no, this is too fun.

This can't be work.

And I'm like, no, it's still work.

The boring stuff isn't more important.

Yeah.
