You made it to the league, but you're not LeBron. You're one of the best basketball players in the world, but nobody knows who you are kind of thing. Like, there's no shame. As a matter of fact, the practicality of making $80,000 a year being a blogger about basketball because you love it versus making 109,000 a year as a lawyer is a great arbitrage for a lot of people. It's the unlocking happiness. Like, is your life better making $109,000 a year being a lawyer versus making $80,000 a year being a full-time basketball content provider? You know, I don't know people's situations. You may have loans. You may have this, but if you can afford it, I promise you, you're going to be way happier doing the stuff that you want to be doing. And those are choices everybody has to make for themselves. But when I say not everybody's going to be LeBron, I mean Mark Zuckerberg and Steve Jobs. as an entrepreneur. That's right. Got it. But within their hobby and their job and making their career their hobby. That's right. They can be the 17th N. There's a level of practicality that's different for everyone predicated on how fancy they want to be. Like where's your happiness and where's the things you want that you need money for? Where's that Mendoza line? There's a lot of people, for example, right now who are watching this who are doing well and making $200,000 a year, but if they made 140, they'd be much happier. Got it? They start working. The machine takes over them. The business eats them up. Like a lot of people think that happens to me when they don't understand me. They don't get it. I already won. I've won. I'm getting to play the game that I want to play. Like it's not like I don't need to make more. more because it means that I'm succeeding in the game that I'm playing. And that's where your patient comes in. Of course, I'm ultimately patient. I've already won, Drock. This game's vigged. I already won. I figured myself out. I know what makes me happy. Nothing in the world makes me happier than being able No. And by the way, this is for everybody. Everybody is the happiest when they get to do what they want to be doing. When you get to do what you want to do, you've won. That is the seductive nature of entrepreneurship. because you have control. There's no boss. But the company can become your boss. The overextending yourself and paying for your lifestyle can become your boss. Uh not paying attention to what makes you happy anymore can become your boss. Uh and that's why I try to stay grounded in that stuff. Like when people don't know me and they and a vir a video goes viral and they're like, "Oh, this guy's just going to be miserable and he's because he just wants to make money. " You know me. You don't know me. Like there's plenty of people that are miserable that have that are home all day. Like misery doesn't come in the way you want to judge it. Misery comes in the way that it is for that actual person. And for me, the time I get to spend with my family and then the fact that I get to spend a lot of time playing the game that I want to play is ultimate happiness. I would suffocate and die if I worked 9 to6. I wouldn't be happy. You know, sorry that's not politically correct. It's selfish. Like I want to work that 6 to9 that so many of you go out to dinner with friends or watch shows or play volleyball or a part of that. That's what I'm doing. It's just three more hours of work. Like my meeting is your card club. book pool table night. My meeting is your dart team. My meeting is your going to the shore and surfing. My meeting is your yoga. That's like, you understand? That's what makes me happy. relaxed. I get relaxed when I'm working. Like like I'm sorry I'm not wired like you.
