as a father and as a podcaster. That's where it consistently lies for me. And because of those two values, they resonate most deeply with me As a human being, that's what I've decided are most important to me and some other values, but zest and consistency are the values that I want to live by, and that makes me unique. That makes me me.

Also, it's like one in a trillion for someone to be born, so no matter what I do, I'm as unique as humanly possible. There will never be another person like me, and there will never be another person like you. That's why I said previous, the world needs you here. not a warped sort of dimmed down version of you. They need the best version of you.

We need all of the gifts and the uniqueness you have to offer because you make the world a better place because of it. And that's what doing this work is all about. That's what stopping these things is all about. That's what going for it is all about. So again, stop trying to be like everyone else.

Come up with some core values, a personal philosophy that really identify with you, mind, zest, and consistency, and see how they fit into those buckets of energy, work, and love, and then breaking down energy into eating well, moving well, sleeping well, and thinking well.
