What is up? Welcome back to the show. We have a tremendous conversation for you with Nick McKinley. Nick is a Harvard graduate, former military special operations, worked for a kinetic team at the CIA, and is now an entrepreneur with... a spin. Nick is also the founder of deliverfund.org, which is a private nonprofit focused on stopping human trafficking, reducing human trafficking in the United States and the world by 80%. And this is a topic that is near and dear to my heart. I'm a huge believer in the protection of our children and the development of our children and the fact that the United States is the number one market for

for human and sex trafficking in the world is deplorable in the purest sense of that name. And specifically, Nick talks about how he was able to achieve the success of graduating from a university like Hartford, special operations, kinetic team at the CIA, and why he is applying all those skills, all that knowledge that he developed to fighting human and sex trafficking. Guys, I'm going to have a link below to deliverfund.org.

Why do successful people keep pushing forward?
in a crude laboratory in the basement of his home.
All right, man. Well, dude, Nick, it is awesome to have you on the show, dude. And I will tell you, like, I've had... Dude, I've had close to 350 guests on this show over the last, you know, whatever, however many years. And you were one of the toughest to prepare for because of the breadth and depth of shit that you have done in your life. Now, before we went live, you referred to yourself as a nonlinear thinker, which speaks to my heart because, you know, for the audience, they know I love bringing in all different people, right? And... You said something, and this is where I want to start. Your nonlinear thinking style allows you to examine questions such as, how do you go so impossibly big that no one thinks it's possible?
So I want to start there. How do people grab this mindset? Because we know... A large percentage of the population of people that are listening to this show right now have incredible talent, all the ability and means to make things happen, but they're stuck and it's often because they're thinking too small. So let's start at the biggest question. How do we make these incredibly big things happen?
purpose.
What does it mean to have a purpose in life?
It's that simple.
When people are thinking too small, I would say it's usually because they're thinking about themselves, right? Their goal is like, oh, I want to build the mastermind class that's going to get me the freedom that I want so that I can have the boat that I want so that I can drop ship stuff from Alibaba on a beach somewhere while I drink my time, right? It's I, I, I, I, I. God did not create us to serve ourselves, right? He created us to serve a greater purpose. And so it's what I call the dragon that you are made to slay. Like what is the problem in the world? What is the problem in society? What is the thing that just haunts you and bothers you? And that is your purpose. That's what you were designed to do.
