It's like life is one complicated, big puzzle with small pieces.
It's not the ones you get when you're five that are real big with big pieces.
And to know that we are all a piece of the puzzle, but you're a vital piece of the puzzle.
And we need you to be that piece of the puzzle for this world to work correctly.

Thank you.
I love that question. So the idea of the thread that connects is I am a humanitarian. I love the underdog because I was the underdog. I am drawn to the person that has a setback, doesn't know how to have a comeback. So even since I was a little kid, I loved the underdog. So you see that all the way across everything I do.
So it happened my senior year of high school. There was a young lady that I really respected and we're still great friends to this day. And she was reading this book about the life of Mother Teresa. And I noticed her on campus. She'd be reading it. And I saw the cover. So I asked her, you know, what is it about? So she explained and she goes, you should read it.
She goes, this is kind of like how you are. So that's an awesome thing about life. You know, sometimes it's observation and conversations that can change your direction. Because my direction was I wanted to go to USC and I wanted to be a communications major and be in entertainment. And so I read this book and I got so touched on how one lady who was a nun,
helped tens of thousands of orphans throughout her lifetime. So I decided after really thinking about it, meditating on it, decided to go to seminary and my life just continued to change.
I knew I was just a young person with an idea. And I love to talk about this because I think sometimes in life we decide and sometimes we discover. So I wish I could just say that I sat back and I just decided that I would be well-known No, I just kind of like kept discovering things.
So when I was in seminary, a friend of mine said, hey, Tim, I'm supposed to be teaching at this ROTC class on the Bible. It's a group of about 30 men. I can't do it tonight. Can you do it? Do me a favor and do it. I go, no, no, no, I'm not a talker. It's a true story. I'm not a talker. And he goes, Tim, I really need you to do it. So I did him a favor and I did it.
And I had these guys laughing so hard And I didn't know that I had that charisma on stage and that I had the ability to make people laugh. And so they said, you know, we love the other guy, but can we get you next week as well? And that's how it started.
Thank you. I love young people's energy. And I'm surrounded by young people who work with me on projects, like from 17, 18 on, because I love their creative energy. But I think this is one thing that draws them to me. We have people from all over the world trying to come to us in LA to do an internship with us because they love my discipline.
And the whole idea is dreaming is easy, but to do the dream is a whole different thing. Walt Disney walked into an amusement park in the 30s. And he said, one day, I want to build my own amusement park. Mine's going to be different, better, and more magical. Well, the thing about Walt Disney that I love is that as I began to study him, his work ethic was at the next level.
So he really practiced these principles of the law of the harvest that you described, which is if you want to harvest, If you want to create Disneyland, as he did in the 60s, after he saw the vision of it, you first have to plow the ground. Then you have to plant the right seed. Then you have to water the seeds. That's every single day you're hustling. And then you're going to reap a harvest.
