They might not look like how you think them. Look, I have friends in my life that some are friends and peers. I'm like, hey, how did this connection even happen? Like we're totally different lifestyles. And but you you realize like mindsets will always find. So as you go on your journey, it might be a little bit lonely at first.

But I promise you, as you keep moving forward, you will find your people. But you just got to stay true to the path.

Do you feel that started a war within yourself?

Do you feel that started a war within yourself?

I'm a hundred percent with you with that.

I'm a hundred percent with you with that.

Yeah. It started, it starts, there's a beautiful quote and it's a rapper named Nipsey Hussle rest in peace. And I don't know if it's his quote, but he said, talk about this in the book. He said, would you rather be at peace with yourself and at war with the world? Or would you rather be at war with yourself and at peace with the world? And every time you're choosing them over you,

by not cutting things off or firing somebody that you know needs to be fired, you start a war within yourself. Every time you say yes, when you wanna say no, and you need to say no, you're starting a war within yourself. So I got tired of starting wars within myself. And one of my hardest things was speaking my peace.

And one of my hardest things was speaking my peace.

And my dad said, Trent, if you don't speak your peace, how can you protect your peace? And I said, wow, you're right. And so I've chose to be at peace with myself. And no matter what comes with that, sometimes it comes with, you know, worry and guilt because not to kind of fast forward, but the main principle in the book or number one is set boundaries.

And no matter what comes with that, sometimes it comes with, you know, worry and guilt because not to kind of fast forward, but the main principle in the book or number one is set boundaries.

And a lot of us don't set boundaries because of two reasons. We worry. or we have guilt. We worry what people are gonna say, we worry about the rebuttal, or we have guilt that I'm leaving this person behind, or I should always be there for them. So we don't set boundaries.

But I like to always say, and this changed my life when it came to protecting my pieces, boundaries aren't walls, boundaries are bridges. Most people think boundaries are this wall that keeps things out. No, boundaries are there to let the right things in. And so, yes, I've had to set boundaries. They only become walls when somebody disrespects it over and over and over again.

Then that boundary becomes a wall. I can't allow you access in my life or I can't be around this environment because it's toxic. So I would ask the person that's listening to this is like, if you want peace in your life or what you need in your life, what boundary do you need to set? What bridge do you need to set that's going to lead you to what you need?
