It's got to be a two-way street.

It's got to be a two-way street.

With your friends, with the people that you love, man.

With conversation.

Do not just get yourself in one-way streets with people.

It will be so, so miserable to be around them.

Because they're just self-centered.

They don't care.

They will, they will, if you had an option, like, you know, those dialogue options or like when you watch something, how you can skip the intro or you can two X something, bro, if you, if you had a button on you that you could do that, they would hit that button continuously through all your dialogue just so they could talk.

Another thing, if you want to have good conversations, how I talked about being a good listener, bro, talk less.

If you feel like you yap a lot, talk less.

I promise you... I promise you... Let the other person speak... And how they will react... How they will... You know... Decide to ask you a question back... Or be like... Wait a minute... We talked about me... I want to know about you... Like what's going on with you... That will dictate so much... About your relationship... It will show you so much about their character... I promise you... That has been the biggest like litmus test for me... And I don't do it as like a... Well let's see what they do... I do it more as like a preservation of my time bro...

Because your time, my time is so valuable that if we squander it, like we're never going to get that back.

So I would rather not sit through countless conversations that are totally slop with people that I don't really like.

You're kind of like a friend of mine, but like not really.

It's not worth it.

Not worth it at all.

So we got to do something that's worth it.

And what's usually worth it?

Guarding our time.
