Or you could say, look, I've been through so much in my life, I always find the way.

You can get certainty in positive ways, neutral ways, or negative ways.

But your life is directed.

So once I know what's driving you and what your rules are, which is not hard to figure out very quickly, I know what the problem is and I know where to take you.

Try that when you're 50.

See if it works for you, right?

But we're programmed for that.
