Absolutely not.

So and oh, here's another aspect of turning pro that worked for me.

I had like about a 10 year career as a screenwriter, as we talked about with King Kong Lives.

And.

One of the things you learn is that screenwriters a lot of times will have their one-man corporations, and they will not sign a contract as themselves.

It won't be Andrew Huberman on the contract.

It'll be your corporation, Huberman Lab, FSO, for services of Andrew Huberman.

And I really love that idea of thinking of yourself

as a two-part thing.

You're the CEO of this thing and then you're also the guy that does the work.

And I would find that if I was just thinking of myself as the guy that's doing the work,

I have a hard time pitching my ideas.

I'm sort of too shy.

But if I'm the CEO of my company, of my corporation, I'm a pro, I can go in there and pimp the hell out of it.

So that idea of looking at yourself as a professional kind of takes all judgment out of any failures that we've had.

We don't blame ourselves anymore for mistakes.

procrastinating or being perfectionists or giving into fear or self-doubt or anything.

We just say, well, okay, I did that when I was thinking like an amateur, but now I'm going to think like a pro and a pro just doesn't yield to that stuff.

So that's a mind shift, a mindset shift that really helped me a lot.

Yeah.
