In this episode of Notes on Wisdom, host Jon Walt sits down with mentor and coach Brian Schroeder to discuss his profound career transition from managing a multi-billion dollar banking portfolio to guiding leaders toward their original intended purpose. Brian shares his personal journey through six decades of life, detailing how overcoming childhood chaos, legalistic faith, and marital struggles led him to discover his true calling in transformational coaching.

Brian explains the core philosophy behind Summit Trek and the Life Plan process, which helps individuals and organizations answer four fundamental questions: Who am I? Why do I exist? Where am I going? and How will I get there? He emphasizes the importance of curating deeply impactful, sensory-rich experiences that help people feel seen, known, and restored to their original dignity.

The conversation also dives into the integrity gap—the space between what we know and what we actually apply—and the necessity of protecting white space in our schedules. Brian offers invaluable wisdom on mentoring, the power of a high-integrity no, and why we must carefully choose where we source our identity and purpose in an increasingly noisy, information-saturated world.

Key takeaways

• True transformation requires addressing the integrity gap by focusing on applying a few core truths rather than constantly consuming more information.
• Every individual and organization must answer four fundamental questions: Who am I? Why do I exist? Where am I going? and How will I get there?
• Effective mentoring requires a three-legged stool of readiness: the person must be in pain, motivated to change, and open to direction.
• Protecting white space in your calendar is essential for maintaining clarity and preparing for deeper, more focused life assignments.
• Sourcing your identity from your Creator and trusted loved ones prevents your self-worth from being diminished by societal influences and economic drivers.

00:04:14.824 --> 00:04:17.199
They<00:04:14.984> thought<00:04:15.289> that<00:04:15.450> I<00:04:15.530> wasn't<00:04:15.851> a<00:04:15.947> banker,<00:04:16.268> but<00:04:16.412> that<00:04:16.493> I<00:04:16.589> was<00:04:16.685> a<00:04:16.814> coach.

00:04:27.153 --> 00:04:39.672
And<00:04:27.233> so<00:04:27.473> when<00:04:27.569> I<00:04:27.634> had<00:04:27.810> an<00:04:27.954> opportunity<00:04:28.515> to<00:04:28.692> leave<00:04:28.852> a<00:04:29.092> $5<00:04:30.295> billion<00:04:30.920> investment<00:04:31.577> portfolio<00:04:32.378> and<00:04:32.523> go<00:04:32.699> to<00:04:32.779> manage<00:04:33.180> a<00:04:33.260> $5<00:04:33.725> million<00:04:34.366> construction<00:04:34.943> company,<00:04:35.985> it<00:04:36.081> seemed<00:04:36.546> like<00:04:36.851> the<00:04:37.027> logical,<00:04:38.374> appropriate<00:04:39.031> next<00:04:39.336> step.

00:04:40.313 --> 00:04:46.774

00:04:46.886 --> 00:04:57.268

So<00:05:43.310> cool.

00:05:43.796 --> 00:05:52.408
Can<00:05:43.877> you<00:05:43.974> tell<00:05:44.088> me<00:05:44.282> about<00:05:44.886> what<00:05:45.287> it<00:05:45.383> is<00:05:45.608> you<00:05:45.704> do<00:05:45.864> now<00:05:46.506> at<00:05:46.602> SummitTrek<00:05:47.532> and<00:05:47.933> how<00:05:48.174> you<00:05:48.270> guys<00:05:48.815> coach<00:05:49.072> people,<00:05:49.938> the<00:05:50.018> whole<00:05:50.275> picture,<00:05:50.596> not<00:05:50.836> just<00:05:52.039> part<00:05:52.264> of<00:05:52.360> it.

00:05:52.841 --> 00:06:05.159
So<00:05:54.269> the<00:05:54.349> most<00:05:54.589> contrived<00:05:55.071> way<00:05:55.247> would<00:05:55.407> be<00:05:55.568> to<00:05:55.648> say<00:05:56.514> our<00:05:56.610> purpose<00:05:57.027> statement<00:05:58.054> is<00:05:58.214> restoring<00:05:58.776> leaders<00:05:59.096> and<00:05:59.257> organizations<00:06:00.219> to<00:06:00.379> the<00:06:00.460> original<00:06:00.941> intended<00:06:01.422> purpose<00:06:02.464> through<00:06:02.689> coaching<00:06:03.651> transformational<00:06:04.469> experiences.

00:06:05.752 --> 00:06:08.206
And<00:06:05.833> ironically,<00:06:06.394> part<00:06:06.635> of<00:06:06.699> that<00:06:06.955> you<00:06:07.052> had<00:06:07.212> something<00:06:07.581> to<00:06:07.677> do<00:06:07.837> with,<00:06:07.998> John.

00:06:09.201 --> 00:06:13.403
But<00:06:09.441> we<00:06:09.586> used<00:06:09.714> to<00:06:09.922> talk<00:06:10.179> about<00:06:10.468> how<00:06:10.580> we<00:06:10.789> coached<00:06:11.350> and<00:06:11.398> now<00:06:11.671> how<00:06:11.783> we<00:06:11.911> talk<00:06:12.184> about<00:06:12.392> how<00:06:12.553> we<00:06:12.649> set<00:06:12.906> a<00:06:12.970> table.

00:06:13.852 --> 00:06:21.831
We<00:06:13.932> create<00:06:14.316> experiences,<00:06:15.775> and<00:06:15.855> those<00:06:16.095> are<00:06:16.255> life<00:06:16.576> experiences,<00:06:17.537> those<00:06:17.793> are<00:06:17.938> leadership<00:06:18.595> experiences,<00:06:19.860> and<00:06:19.940> those<00:06:20.181> are<00:06:20.421> organizational<00:06:21.286> experiences.

00:06:22.664 --> 00:06:30.644
And<00:06:22.744> in<00:06:22.889> every<00:06:23.225> one<00:06:23.482> of<00:06:23.610> those<00:06:23.930> 3<00:06:24.187> things,<00:06:24.731> we're<00:06:24.827> trying<00:06:25.068> to<00:06:25.148> take<00:06:25.468> people<00:06:26.237> from<00:06:26.350> the<00:06:26.430> place<00:06:26.830> they're<00:06:27.311> in<00:06:27.872> and<00:06:27.952> take<00:06:28.192> them<00:06:28.336> to<00:06:28.433> the<00:06:28.529> place<00:06:28.977> that<00:06:29.138> they<00:06:29.298> were<00:06:29.698> created<00:06:30.115> to<00:06:30.259> be<00:06:30.580> in.

00:06:31.317 --> 00:06:46.814
And<00:06:31.461> so<00:06:31.701> when<00:06:31.878> we<00:06:32.038> say<00:06:32.775> original<00:06:33.304> intended<00:06:33.784> purpose,<00:06:34.666> that's<00:06:34.906> a<00:06:35.002> very<00:06:35.403> big<00:06:35.643> deal<00:06:35.883> to<00:06:35.963> us<00:06:36.268> because<00:06:36.925> we<00:06:37.021> think<00:06:37.245> humanity<00:06:37.790> was<00:06:37.966> placed<00:06:38.287> in<00:06:38.367> the<00:06:38.447> center<00:06:38.751> of<00:06:38.848> a<00:06:38.864> story<00:06:39.953> and<00:06:40.049> given<00:06:40.354> significant<00:06:41.732> power<00:06:42.133> and<00:06:42.277> authority<00:06:42.774> and<00:06:42.918> importance,<00:06:44.136> and<00:06:44.217> most<00:06:44.601> of<00:06:44.698> us<00:06:44.922> have<00:06:45.098> lost<00:06:45.499> our<00:06:45.724> understanding<00:06:46.445> of<00:06:46.525> that.

00:06:47.423 --> 00:06:56.577
Therefore,<00:06:47.984> the<00:06:48.144> value<00:06:48.465> of<00:06:48.529> our<00:06:48.770> lives<00:06:49.170> has<00:06:49.411> been<00:06:49.587> diminished,<00:06:50.790> and<00:06:50.934> in<00:06:51.415> the<00:06:51.511> current<00:06:51.896> social<00:06:52.313> conversation<00:06:53.194> and<00:06:53.275> the<00:06:53.355> way<00:06:53.515> we<00:06:53.675> communicate,<00:06:54.878> that's<00:06:55.118> been<00:06:55.279> diminished<00:06:55.840> even<00:06:56.144> further.

00:06:57.122 --> 00:07:11.679
So<00:06:57.283> to<00:06:57.363> restore<00:06:58.389> individuals<00:06:59.351> to<00:06:59.511> their<00:06:59.607> original<00:06:59.992> intended<00:07:00.409> purpose<00:07:01.435> is<00:07:01.531> to<00:07:01.691> restore<00:07:02.333> original<00:07:02.894> dignity<00:07:03.920> and<00:07:04.000> original<00:07:04.417> understanding<00:07:05.379> of<00:07:05.459> the<00:07:05.539> incredible<00:07:06.741> opportunity<00:07:07.286> we<00:07:07.383> were<00:07:07.703> given<00:07:08.729> as<00:07:08.890> we<00:07:08.970> were<00:07:09.066> placed<00:07:09.483> at<00:07:09.627> the<00:07:09.707> center<00:07:09.948> of<00:07:10.092> the<00:07:10.188> story<00:07:10.974> as<00:07:11.134> humanity.

00:07:12.273 --> 00:07:27.103
So,<00:07:12.434> to<00:07:12.514> do<00:07:12.675> that<00:07:12.916> for<00:07:13.141> leaders<00:07:13.703> means<00:07:14.121> that<00:07:14.844> even<00:07:15.004> though<00:07:15.245> businesses<00:07:16.354> are<00:07:16.386> not<00:07:16.692> looked<00:07:16.933> upon<00:07:17.399> as<00:07:17.656> the<00:07:17.816> best,<00:07:18.845> it<00:07:18.941> gives<00:07:19.166> you<00:07:19.262> an<00:07:19.407> opportunity<00:07:20.066> as<00:07:20.162> a<00:07:20.291> leader<00:07:20.628> to<00:07:20.773> significantly,<00:07:22.315> materially,<00:07:23.199> 2,000<00:07:24.340> hours<00:07:24.645> a<00:07:24.870> year<00:07:25.770> impact<00:07:26.316> the<00:07:26.412> lives<00:07:26.750> of<00:07:26.959> others.

00:07:27.296 --> 00:07:30.445
And<00:07:27.441> we<00:07:27.601> take<00:07:27.842> that<00:07:27.923> responsibility<00:07:29.288> very,<00:07:29.529> very<00:07:29.722> seriously.

00:07:30.992 --> 00:07:35.105
And<00:07:31.072> so<00:07:31.297> finally,<00:07:31.956> just<00:07:32.277> the<00:07:32.502> idea<00:07:32.823> of<00:07:33.145> restoring<00:07:33.884> things<00:07:34.205> the<00:07:34.285> way<00:07:34.430> they<00:07:34.591> were<00:07:34.623> intended.

00:07:35.651 --> 00:07:37.917
There<00:07:35.732> was<00:07:35.892> a<00:07:36.037> culture<00:07:36.535> we<00:07:36.679> were<00:07:36.840> created<00:07:37.258> to<00:07:37.338> inhabit.

00:07:38.366 --> 00:07:39.844
Where<00:07:38.688> humanity<00:07:39.250> would<00:07:39.427> flourish.

00:07:40.551 --> 00:07:44.374
And<00:07:40.631> we<00:07:40.776> are<00:07:40.872> far,<00:07:41.338> far<00:07:41.756> from<00:07:41.980> that<00:07:42.157> original<00:07:42.719> intent<00:07:43.298> or<00:07:43.426> from<00:07:43.667> that<00:07:43.844> garden.

00:07:44.888 --> 00:08:02.154
And<00:07:45.032> so,<00:07:45.434> we<00:07:45.611> believe<00:07:46.076> that<00:07:46.253> by<00:07:46.574> establishing<00:07:47.297> the<00:07:47.377> right<00:07:47.683> culture,<00:07:48.662> the<00:07:48.743> right<00:07:49.224> meeting<00:07:49.546> governance,<00:07:50.172> the<00:07:50.252> right<00:07:50.493> hierarchy<00:07:51.072> inside<00:07:51.409> of<00:07:51.489> a<00:07:51.553> company<00:07:51.971> and<00:07:52.100> the<00:07:52.132> right<00:07:52.421> culture<00:07:52.694> around<00:07:53.160> that,<00:07:54.027> you<00:07:54.123> can<00:07:54.686> reestablish<00:07:55.569> that<00:07:55.810> kingdom<00:07:56.292> here<00:07:56.597> on<00:07:56.774> earth<00:07:57.496> and<00:07:57.641> bring<00:07:57.914> about<00:07:58.444> the<00:07:58.541> reality<00:07:59.119> of<00:07:59.263> that<00:07:59.488> kingdom<00:07:59.970> one<00:08:00.147> business<00:08:00.613> at<00:08:00.645> a<00:08:00.773> time<00:08:01.127> or<00:08:01.255> one<00:08:01.432> leader<00:08:01.673> at<00:08:01.769> a<00:08:01.833> time.

00:08:02.717 --> 00:08:03.729
That's<00:08:03.118> so<00:08:03.359> beautiful.

00:08:04.242 --> 00:08:04.803
I<00:08:04.386> love<00:08:04.579> it.

00:08:05.669 --> 00:08:11.344
You<00:08:05.765> guys<00:08:06.086> say<00:08:07.112> often<00:08:07.913> that<00:08:08.170> everybody<00:08:08.635> gets<00:08:08.795> somewhere,<00:08:09.356> but<00:08:09.404> not<00:08:09.677> everybody<00:08:10.173> gets<00:08:10.414> somewhere<00:08:10.799> on<00:08:10.975> purpose.

00:08:12.322 --> 00:08:16.025
Why<00:08:12.434> is<00:08:12.562> that<00:08:12.674> such<00:08:13.059> an<00:08:13.139> important<00:08:13.540> concept<00:08:14.566> for<00:08:14.742> you<00:08:15.127> and<00:08:15.464> Summit<00:08:15.768> Trek?

00:08:16.570 --> 00:08:25.788
Yeah,<00:08:16.730> I<00:08:16.746> think<00:08:17.003> it's<00:08:17.147> interesting<00:08:18.253> when<00:08:18.413> people,<00:08:18.846> faithy<00:08:19.375> people,<00:08:20.497> think<00:08:20.754> that<00:08:20.930> somehow<00:08:21.491> because<00:08:21.860> they're<00:08:21.956> faithy<00:08:22.421> people,<00:08:23.399> they<00:08:23.543> have<00:08:23.784> no<00:08:24.040> agency<00:08:25.146> over<00:08:25.259> their<00:08:25.467> life.

00:08:26.445 --> 00:08:29.619
And<00:08:26.525> there<00:08:26.621> was<00:08:26.782> a<00:08:26.846> guy<00:08:27.022> named<00:08:27.246> Constantine<00:08:28.192> that<00:08:28.385> said—<00:08:28.850> no,<00:08:29.170> Augustine.

00:08:30.133 --> 00:08:34.485
Who<00:08:30.293> said,<00:08:31.658> without<00:08:32.044> him<00:08:32.220> we<00:08:32.381> cannot,<00:08:33.103> and<00:08:33.168> without<00:08:33.569> us<00:08:33.746> he<00:08:33.971> will<00:08:34.163> not.

00:08:34.613 --> 00:08:38.419
There's<00:08:34.854> this<00:08:35.673> codependent<00:08:36.460> relationship<00:08:37.359> that<00:08:37.504> we<00:08:37.584> were<00:08:37.745> placed<00:08:38.146> here<00:08:38.307> for.

00:08:39.142 --> 00:08:48.087
So<00:08:39.351> it's<00:08:39.591> really<00:08:39.848> important<00:08:40.330> that<00:08:40.555> you<00:08:40.651> take<00:08:40.973> control,<00:08:41.776> or<00:08:42.000> you<00:08:42.177> partner<00:08:42.819> with<00:08:43.703> the<00:08:43.783> Creator<00:08:44.425> to<00:08:44.506> craft<00:08:45.806> more<00:08:46.176> of<00:08:46.272> the<00:08:46.352> story<00:08:46.834> that<00:08:47.059> you<00:08:47.139> were<00:08:47.236> created<00:08:47.621> to<00:08:47.717> live<00:08:47.958> in.

00:08:48.681 --> 00:08:55.763
And<00:08:48.761> by<00:08:49.002> doing<00:08:49.388> that,<00:08:49.629> you<00:08:49.725> get<00:08:49.950> to<00:08:50.046> be<00:08:50.207> hands,<00:08:50.913> feet,<00:08:51.395> voice,<00:08:52.375> care,<00:08:52.937> heart<00:08:53.981> for<00:08:54.061> the<00:08:54.286> world<00:08:54.543> the<00:08:54.703> way<00:08:54.928> it<00:08:55.008> was<00:08:55.185> intended.

00:08:56.245 --> 00:09:00.448
So<00:08:56.534> if<00:08:56.952> You<00:08:57.096> can<00:08:57.272> claim<00:08:57.657> that,<00:08:58.058> you<00:08:58.235> can<00:08:58.475> take<00:08:58.780> your<00:08:58.876> life<00:08:59.133> in<00:08:59.277> a<00:08:59.341> completely<00:08:59.758> different<00:09:00.063> direction.

00:09:01.121 --> 00:09:07.584
And<00:09:01.185> we<00:09:01.346> tend<00:09:01.714> to<00:09:02.067> dramatically<00:09:02.709> overestimate<00:09:03.527> what<00:09:03.687> we<00:09:03.847> can<00:09:04.008> do<00:09:04.489> in<00:09:04.569> the<00:09:04.649> next<00:09:04.970> 5<00:09:05.291> days,<00:09:06.253> the<00:09:06.397> way<00:09:06.493> we<00:09:06.590> schedule<00:09:07.039> ourselves.

00:09:08.177 --> 00:09:11.545
And<00:09:08.257> we<00:09:08.402> dramatically<00:09:09.123> underestimate<00:09:09.925> what<00:09:10.086> we<00:09:10.182> can<00:09:10.342> do<00:09:10.487> in<00:09:10.567> the<00:09:10.599> next<00:09:10.903> 5<00:09:11.208> years.

00:09:11.786 --> 00:09:30.493

00:11:45.072 --> 00:11:47.363
And<00:11:45.216> they<00:11:45.312> see<00:11:45.857> those<00:11:46.194> things<00:11:46.594> come<00:11:46.834> to<00:11:46.915> fruition.

00:11:48.276 --> 00:11:57.537
Because<00:11:48.741> the<00:11:48.821> process<00:11:49.542> of<00:11:49.718> getting<00:11:50.103> to<00:11:50.263> that<00:11:50.904> final<00:11:51.305> destination<00:11:52.042> of<00:11:52.202> a<00:11:52.282> plan<00:11:52.602> on<00:11:52.698> a<00:11:52.763> page<00:11:53.964> is<00:11:54.060> so<00:11:54.765> deeply<00:11:55.871> intertwined<00:11:56.592> in<00:11:56.672> your<00:11:56.768> life<00:11:56.960> story.

00:11:58.066 --> 00:11:59.780
It's<00:11:58.210> in<00:11:58.290> the<00:11:58.434> process<00:11:58.995> of<00:11:59.091> overcoming.

00:11:59.876 --> 00:12:08.736
It's<00:11:59.972> in<00:12:00.117> the<00:12:00.197> process<00:12:01.174> of<00:12:01.318> reinterpreting<00:12:02.856> things<00:12:03.241> you<00:12:03.337> believed<00:12:03.657> about<00:12:03.882> yourself<00:12:04.394> that<00:12:04.539> are<00:12:04.619> not<00:12:04.859> really<00:12:05.099> true,<00:12:06.125> where<00:12:06.285> you've<00:12:06.381> forgiven<00:12:07.086> people<00:12:07.583> and<00:12:07.727> laid<00:12:07.999> things<00:12:08.384> down.

00:12:08.801 --> 00:12:15.163
It's<00:12:08.929> so<00:12:09.409> deeply<00:12:09.970> excavated<00:12:11.252> that<00:12:11.412> whether<00:12:11.636> or<00:12:11.684> not<00:12:11.989> people<00:12:12.293> look<00:12:12.470> at<00:12:12.534> that<00:12:12.710> page<00:12:13.030> ever<00:12:13.271> again,<00:12:13.976> those<00:12:14.216> things<00:12:14.393> just<00:12:14.585> start<00:12:14.794> happening.

00:12:15.773 --> 00:12:22.656
It's<00:12:15.917> pretty<00:12:16.174> magical<00:12:16.880> that<00:12:17.505> some<00:12:17.698> of<00:12:17.762> the<00:12:17.842> people<00:12:18.163> that<00:12:18.308> have<00:12:18.404> lived<00:12:18.645> it<00:12:18.789> out<00:12:18.982> most<00:12:19.302> aggressively<00:12:20.795> never<00:12:21.115> pick<00:12:21.356> the<00:12:21.436> piece<00:12:21.693> of<00:12:21.757> paper<00:12:22.094> back<00:12:22.399> up.

00:12:23.201 --> 00:12:30.565
But<00:12:23.362> what<00:12:23.538> was<00:12:23.650> so<00:12:24.244> incontrovertibly<00:12:25.383> clear<00:12:25.945> through<00:12:26.105> the<00:12:26.185> process<00:12:27.533> is<00:12:27.694> almost<00:12:28.030> impossibly<00:12:28.817> lost<00:12:29.458> when<00:12:29.619> you<00:12:29.715> leave<00:12:29.876> that<00:12:30.036> process.

00:12:31.801 --> 00:12:32.378
I<00:12:31.881> could<00:12:32.025> see<00:12:32.202> that.

00:12:33.871 --> 00:12:42.599

00:12:43.417 --> 00:12:51.832

00:12:52.169 --> 00:13:03.684

And<00:20:33.879> I<00:20:34.938> invited<00:20:35.420> them<00:20:35.660> one<00:20:35.901> by<00:20:36.126> one.

00:20:37.089 --> 00:20:41.486
And<00:20:37.345> that's<00:20:37.939> just<00:20:38.212> the<00:20:38.308> kind<00:20:38.613> of<00:20:38.726> zealot<00:20:39.352> kind<00:20:39.592> of<00:20:39.737> personality<00:20:40.956> I<00:20:41.037> have.

00:20:41.983 --> 00:20:51.661
And<00:20:42.064> so<00:20:42.304> when<00:20:42.465> I<00:20:42.561> became<00:20:43.219> a<00:20:43.283> Christian<00:20:43.909> and<00:20:44.006> a<00:20:44.070> Christian<00:20:44.551> father<00:20:44.952> and<00:20:45.113> husband,<00:20:46.252> I<00:20:46.317> read<00:20:46.557> all<00:20:46.670> the<00:20:46.814> books,<00:20:47.360> I<00:20:47.440> listened<00:20:47.761> to<00:20:47.841> all<00:20:47.921> the<00:20:48.018> podcasts,<00:20:49.221> probably<00:20:49.558> more<00:20:49.847> like<00:20:50.088> listened<00:20:50.329> to<00:20:50.425> cassette<00:20:50.890> tapes<00:20:51.227> at<00:20:51.308> the<00:20:51.404> time.

00:20:52.351 --> 00:20:55.705
But<00:20:52.495> I<00:20:52.592> kind<00:20:52.897> of<00:20:52.993> listened<00:20:53.474> and<00:20:53.635> read<00:20:54.100> everything<00:20:54.501> I<00:20:54.517> could<00:20:54.678> possibly<00:20:55.159> find.

00:20:56.107 --> 00:20:57.472
And<00:20:56.187> I<00:20:56.283> turned<00:20:56.669> off<00:20:56.829> the<00:20:57.006> internet.

00:20:58.612 --> 00:21:08.137
We<00:20:58.757> had<00:20:58.934> no<00:20:59.174> cable<00:20:59.544> in<00:20:59.656> our<00:20:59.801> house,<00:21:00.379> and<00:21:00.524> I<00:21:00.636> was<00:21:01.006> all<00:21:01.327> in<00:21:01.648> on<00:21:01.825> doing<00:21:02.291> things<00:21:02.692> the<00:21:02.869> way<00:21:03.833> the<00:21:03.993> empire<00:21:05.278> told<00:21:05.680> me<00:21:05.985> at<00:21:06.162> its<00:21:06.547> nth<00:21:06.804> degree<00:21:07.350> you<00:21:07.447> should<00:21:07.752> do<00:21:07.913> it.

00:21:08.796 --> 00:21:21.325
And<00:21:08.876> what<00:21:08.989> I<00:21:09.117> found<00:21:09.535> was<00:21:09.679> that<00:21:09.744> it<00:21:09.824> was<00:21:10.017> really<00:21:10.322> empty<00:21:11.061> and<00:21:11.205> really<00:21:11.382> discouraging,<00:21:12.651> and<00:21:12.731> that<00:21:12.892> the<00:21:12.972> motives<00:21:13.535> I<00:21:13.615> often<00:21:14.016> found<00:21:14.338> were<00:21:14.434> very<00:21:14.836> different<00:21:15.317> than<00:21:16.024> how<00:21:16.121> do<00:21:16.185> you<00:21:16.362> follow<00:21:16.763> in<00:21:16.827> the<00:21:16.924> footsteps<00:21:17.502> of<00:21:17.631> the<00:21:17.727> one<00:21:18.434> who<00:21:18.610> came<00:21:18.932> to<00:21:19.012> this<00:21:19.253> earth<00:21:19.494> to<00:21:19.590> model<00:21:19.976> what<00:21:20.136> it<00:21:20.217> was<00:21:20.313> supposed<00:21:20.634> to<00:21:20.859> look<00:21:21.084> like?

00:21:21.823 --> 00:21:28.534
And<00:21:21.919> I<00:21:21.951> have<00:21:22.080> a<00:21:22.144> quote<00:21:22.529> from<00:21:22.706> a<00:21:22.786> guy<00:21:23.027> named<00:21:23.268> Richard<00:21:23.733> Rohr<00:21:24.135> that<00:21:24.793> tells<00:21:25.050> me<00:21:25.195> a<00:21:25.211> lot<00:21:25.612> about<00:21:27.105> the<00:21:27.202> movement<00:21:27.619> of<00:21:27.748> Christianity.

00:21:28.727 --> 00:21:29.883
And<00:21:28.872> I<00:21:29.032> think<00:21:29.209> it's<00:21:29.353> really<00:21:29.610> poignant.

00:21:29.931 --> 00:21:31.810
I<00:21:29.980> was<00:21:30.172> just<00:21:30.574> pulling<00:21:30.831> that<00:21:31.039> up<00:21:31.152> to<00:21:31.457> read<00:21:31.682> it.

00:21:31.922 --> 00:21:32.211
I<00:21:32.003> love<00:21:32.179> it.

00:21:32.260 --> 00:21:36.290
It's<00:21:32.500> possible<00:21:32.998> to<00:21:33.127> trace<00:21:33.544> the<00:21:33.624> movement<00:21:33.962> of<00:21:34.106> Christianity<00:21:34.813> from<00:21:35.005> its<00:21:35.230> early<00:21:35.551> days<00:21:35.872> until<00:21:36.193> now.

00:21:37.141 --> 00:21:40.737
In<00:21:37.301> Israel,<00:21:37.879> Jesus<00:21:38.361> and<00:21:38.441> the<00:21:38.522> early<00:21:38.843> church<00:21:39.308> offered<00:21:39.565> people<00:21:39.935> an<00:21:39.983> experience.

00:21:41.332 --> 00:21:43.387
It<00:21:41.412> moved<00:21:41.733> to<00:21:41.813> Greece<00:21:42.215> and<00:21:42.359> became<00:21:42.632> a<00:21:42.696> philosophy.

00:21:43.965 --> 00:21:51.425
When<00:21:44.077> it<00:21:44.222> moved<00:21:44.527> to<00:21:44.687> Rome<00:21:45.008> and<00:21:45.105> Constantinople,<00:21:47.256> It<00:21:47.352> became<00:21:47.817> organized<00:21:48.234> religion,<00:21:49.196> and<00:21:49.260> then<00:21:49.356> it<00:21:49.389> spread<00:21:49.741> to<00:21:49.902> Europe<00:21:50.383> and<00:21:50.479> it<00:21:50.543> became<00:21:50.896> a<00:21:51.024> culture.

00:21:52.323 --> 00:22:03.595
Finally,<00:21:52.788> it<00:21:52.884> moved<00:21:53.124> to<00:21:53.205> North<00:21:53.461> America<00:21:53.990> and<00:21:54.086> became<00:21:54.471> a<00:21:54.567> business,<00:21:55.850> and<00:21:55.946> sadly,<00:21:56.556> one<00:21:56.716> of<00:21:56.748> the<00:21:56.892> things<00:21:57.277> I<00:21:57.534> think<00:21:57.774> we've<00:21:58.015> lost<00:21:58.560> is<00:21:58.736> just<00:21:59.779> the<00:21:59.939> beauty<00:22:00.500> and<00:22:00.660> glory,<00:22:01.526> the<00:22:01.687> invitation<00:22:02.649> that<00:22:02.809> was<00:22:02.985> intended.

00:22:04.188 --> 00:22:15.059
I<00:22:04.204> mean,<00:22:04.412> there<00:22:04.509> was<00:22:04.733> literally<00:22:05.134> an<00:22:05.214> understanding<00:22:05.871> that<00:22:05.936> at<00:22:06.112> one<00:22:06.272> point<00:22:07.395> that<00:22:07.635> the<00:22:07.715> whole<00:22:07.956> plan<00:22:08.437> was<00:22:08.597> that<00:22:09.303> we<00:22:09.479> would<00:22:09.880> embody<00:22:10.425> living<00:22:10.666> water<00:22:11.307> and<00:22:11.387> that<00:22:11.628> everywhere<00:22:12.109> we<00:22:12.365> went,<00:22:13.071> life<00:22:13.407> would<00:22:13.632> flow<00:22:14.033> out<00:22:14.225> of<00:22:14.305> us<00:22:14.530> abundantly.

00:22:15.960 --> 00:22:26.450
At<00:22:16.057> one<00:22:16.299> point,<00:22:16.783> we<00:22:16.928> were<00:22:17.025> so<00:22:17.202> separated<00:22:17.896> from<00:22:18.074> God<00:22:18.396> that<00:22:18.574> we<00:22:19.106> had<00:22:19.267> to<00:22:19.300> wear<00:22:19.429> a<00:22:19.509> shroud<00:22:20.251> to<00:22:20.332> shield<00:22:20.816> us<00:22:21.316> if<00:22:21.381> we<00:22:21.542> ever<00:22:21.703> came<00:22:21.945> into<00:22:22.107> contact<00:22:22.591> with<00:22:22.752> God,<00:22:23.058> because<00:22:23.333> no<00:22:23.623> one<00:22:24.268> could<00:22:24.430> look<00:22:24.607> into<00:22:24.768> the<00:22:24.914> face<00:22:25.172> of<00:22:25.269> someone<00:22:25.560> that<00:22:25.673> experienced<00:22:26.369> that.

00:22:27.501 --> 00:22:34.925
And<00:22:27.598> when<00:22:27.760> this<00:22:29.685> second<00:22:30.170> Adam,<00:22:30.591> this<00:22:30.833> perfect<00:22:31.319> man<00:22:31.788> came<00:22:32.046> to<00:22:32.192> us<00:22:32.305> 2,000<00:22:33.146> years<00:22:33.276> ago,<00:22:33.971> the<00:22:34.052> shroud<00:22:34.392> was<00:22:34.618> removed.

00:22:35.683 --> 00:22:57.929
And<00:22:35.829> it<00:22:35.926> was<00:22:36.087> intended<00:22:36.588> that<00:22:36.749> each<00:22:36.959> one<00:22:37.137> of<00:22:37.233> us<00:22:37.379> would<00:22:37.524> reflect<00:22:37.879> that<00:22:38.025> glory<00:22:38.816> uniquely,<00:22:39.881> and<00:22:39.962> that<00:22:40.188> living<00:22:40.527> water<00:22:40.850> would<00:22:41.011> flow<00:22:41.334> through<00:22:41.577> us<00:22:41.819> and<00:22:41.980> splash<00:22:42.529> onto<00:22:42.868> anyone<00:22:43.632> in<00:22:43.712> our<00:22:43.856> proximity,<00:22:45.076> that<00:22:45.236> the<00:22:45.381> water<00:22:45.622> would<00:22:45.862> leave<00:22:46.183> the<00:22:46.344> temple<00:22:46.825> or<00:22:47.002> leave<00:22:47.306> the<00:22:48.189> empire<00:22:49.408> and<00:22:49.553> flow<00:22:49.890> through<00:22:50.195> individuals<00:22:51.093> and<00:22:51.254> wherever<00:22:51.719> individuals<00:22:52.457> would<00:22:52.618> go,<00:22:53.099> that<00:22:53.324> would<00:22:53.500> carry<00:22:54.286> the<00:22:54.447> idea<00:22:54.784> of<00:22:54.928> the<00:22:55.025> temple<00:22:55.570> and<00:22:55.650> the<00:22:55.811> idea<00:22:56.148> of<00:22:56.308> living<00:22:56.629> water<00:22:57.351> and<00:22:57.431> new<00:22:57.624> life.

00:22:58.491 --> 00:23:00.191
So<00:22:58.635> that's,<00:22:58.956> I<00:22:59.036> think<00:22:59.261> that's<00:22:59.421> what<00:22:59.517> I<00:22:59.598> mean<00:22:59.838> by<00:22:59.983> that.

00:23:01.283 --> 00:23:01.587
Yeah.

00:23:02.566 --> 00:23:07.171
You<00:23:02.663> guys<00:23:03.048> are<00:23:03.288> running<00:23:03.625> a<00:23:03.754> business,<00:23:04.476> and<00:23:04.636> yet<00:23:04.877> you're<00:23:05.615> not<00:23:05.920> running<00:23:06.161> it<00:23:06.337> like<00:23:06.594> a<00:23:06.658> business.

00:23:23.369 --> 00:23:35.395
It's<00:23:23.819> interesting<00:23:24.429> because<00:23:24.654> we<00:23:24.798> do<00:23:25.039> have<00:23:25.360> really<00:23:25.698> sound<00:23:26.324> principles<00:23:27.062> about<00:23:27.367> the<00:23:27.512> way<00:23:27.769> that<00:23:27.994> you<00:23:28.090> should<00:23:28.331> run<00:23:28.507> a<00:23:28.572> business<00:23:29.519> and<00:23:29.615> stewardship,<00:23:31.285> and<00:23:32.184> it's<00:23:32.489> been<00:23:32.907> kind<00:23:33.228> of<00:23:33.372> the<00:23:33.533> opposite<00:23:34.015> of<00:23:34.127> our<00:23:34.416> own<00:23:34.593> experience.

00:23:35.941 --> 00:23:48.474
So<00:23:36.600> we've<00:23:37.322> run<00:23:37.562> this<00:23:37.803> like<00:23:38.107> a<00:23:38.283> business<00:23:38.764> in<00:23:38.860> some<00:23:39.165> respects,<00:23:40.286> but<00:23:40.382> when<00:23:40.591> opportunity<00:23:41.248> presents<00:23:41.728> itself,<00:23:42.930> we<00:23:43.171> pretty<00:23:43.427> much<00:23:43.651> set<00:23:43.908> aside<00:23:44.436> every<00:23:44.613> other<00:23:44.917> financial<00:23:45.558> prudence<00:23:46.680> and<00:23:46.776> go<00:23:47.000> after<00:23:47.337> what<00:23:47.481> the<00:23:47.577> opportunity<00:23:48.282> is.

00:23:49.035 --> 00:24:00.124
So<00:23:49.340> that's<00:23:49.660> meant<00:23:50.365> over<00:23:50.461> the<00:23:50.542> last<00:23:50.782> 6<00:23:51.086> years<00:23:51.407> a<00:23:51.423> lot<00:23:51.599> of<00:23:51.663> time<00:23:52.000> in<00:23:52.208> Africa<00:23:52.609> and<00:23:52.849> elsewhere,<00:23:54.051> and<00:23:54.243> it's<00:23:54.467> meant<00:23:54.772> being<00:23:55.028> very,<00:23:55.333> very<00:23:55.589> generous<00:23:56.054> with<00:23:56.134> the<00:23:56.230> people<00:23:56.551> who<00:23:56.711> participate<00:23:57.993> in<00:23:58.089> our<00:23:58.233> events<00:23:58.794> and<00:23:58.890> our<00:23:59.098> offerings<00:23:59.659> here<00:23:59.835> in<00:23:59.916> town.

00:24:27.047 --> 00:24:29.659
Yeah,<00:24:27.704> I<00:24:27.944> mean,<00:24:28.104> there's<00:24:28.297> a<00:24:28.441> bit<00:24:28.601> of<00:24:28.681> a<00:24:28.697> story<00:24:29.242> there.

00:24:30.604 --> 00:24:35.540
When<00:24:31.149> I<00:24:31.326> left<00:24:31.726> the<00:24:31.983> small<00:24:32.431> company<00:24:32.784> I<00:24:32.832> had<00:24:33.008> gone<00:24:33.329> to<00:24:33.569> as<00:24:33.729> a<00:24:33.890> gateway<00:24:34.531> to<00:24:35.092> coaching.

00:24:36.358 --> 00:24:40.075
I<00:24:36.438> had<00:24:36.598> another<00:24:37.175> friend<00:24:37.640> who<00:24:37.800> was<00:24:37.960> a<00:24:38.056> partner<00:24:38.441> at<00:24:38.537> Deloitte<00:24:39.018> who<00:24:39.114> had<00:24:39.242> just<00:24:39.418> retired.

00:24:40.620 --> 00:24:52.046
And<00:24:40.700> in<00:24:40.844> order<00:24:41.021> to<00:24:41.181> build<00:24:41.357> a<00:24:41.501> business<00:24:42.062> that<00:24:42.207> had<00:24:42.319> the<00:24:42.447> financial<00:24:42.864> viability<00:24:43.424> to<00:24:43.569> fund<00:24:43.889> the<00:24:43.985> two<00:24:44.146> of<00:24:44.370> us<00:24:44.546> plus<00:24:44.931> other<00:24:45.524> team<00:24:45.812> members,<00:24:46.629> we<00:24:46.790> leaned<00:24:47.190> into<00:24:47.351> his<00:24:47.575> consulting<00:24:48.152> background<00:24:48.857> and<00:24:48.953> my<00:24:49.258> large<00:24:50.155> bank<00:24:50.475> organization<00:24:51.437> experience.

00:24:52.639 --> 00:25:02.995
And<00:24:52.703> we<00:24:52.799> found<00:24:53.103> ourselves<00:24:53.616> still<00:24:54.081> running<00:24:54.802> roundtables<00:24:55.908> here<00:24:56.084> in<00:24:56.244> town,<00:24:57.126> but<00:24:57.350> really<00:24:57.542> making<00:24:58.007> most<00:24:58.328> of<00:24:58.408> our<00:24:58.568> money<00:24:58.969> and<00:24:59.113> having<00:24:59.449> the<00:24:59.545> most<00:24:59.786> traction<00:25:00.892> in<00:25:01.036> kind<00:25:01.357> of<00:25:01.534> corporate<00:25:01.935> consultancy<00:25:02.658> work.

00:25:03.846 --> 00:25:13.127
And<00:25:04.023> so<00:25:04.247> we<00:25:04.408> faced<00:25:04.890> a<00:25:04.986> crossroads<00:25:05.933> and<00:25:06.495> I<00:25:06.592> was<00:25:06.833> more<00:25:07.089> thinking<00:25:07.555> we<00:25:07.635> needed<00:25:07.957> to<00:25:08.021> stop<00:25:08.438> doing<00:25:08.679> roundtables<00:25:09.482> and<00:25:09.948> Paul<00:25:10.204> was<00:25:10.445> less<00:25:10.686> so,<00:25:11.650> but<00:25:12.131> we<00:25:12.212> did<00:25:12.372> a<00:25:12.388> Lean<00:25:12.693> Canvas.

00:25:13.480 --> 00:25:18.602
So<00:25:13.657> we<00:25:13.817> tested<00:25:14.283> the<00:25:14.363> hypothesis<00:25:15.888> of<00:25:16.129> what<00:25:16.290> we<00:25:16.467> were<00:25:16.627> doing<00:25:17.045> versus<00:25:17.350> what<00:25:17.510> everyone<00:25:17.831> else<00:25:18.072> was<00:25:18.249> doing.

00:25:19.196 --> 00:25:23.419
And<00:25:19.276> what<00:25:19.421> we<00:25:19.517> found<00:25:19.999> was<00:25:20.304> we<00:25:20.400> interviewed<00:25:20.689> 120<00:25:21.444> people<00:25:21.781> from<00:25:22.070> all<00:25:22.247> the<00:25:22.327> roundtable<00:25:22.969> brands.

00:25:23.933 --> 00:25:28.878
And<00:25:24.013> what<00:25:24.109> we<00:25:24.238> heard<00:25:24.559> was<00:25:24.800> they<00:25:24.896> were<00:25:25.041> getting<00:25:25.282> great<00:25:25.458> camaraderie,<00:25:27.369> And<00:25:27.449> they<00:25:27.546> were<00:25:27.690> getting<00:25:28.011> lots<00:25:28.268> of<00:25:28.365> information.

00:25:29.794 --> 00:25:37.469
And<00:25:29.938> what<00:25:30.035> they<00:25:30.356> weren't<00:25:30.757> getting<00:25:31.705> was<00:25:32.026> the<00:25:32.138> ability<00:25:32.588> to<00:25:32.620> apply<00:25:33.102> most<00:25:33.471> of<00:25:33.503> that<00:25:33.712> information<00:25:34.451> or<00:25:34.547> seeing<00:25:35.013> any<00:25:35.318> real<00:25:35.510> measurable<00:25:36.056> change<00:25:36.683> in<00:25:36.763> their<00:25:36.859> businesses.

00:25:37.903 --> 00:25:39.493
Those<00:25:38.128> were<00:25:38.208> the<00:25:38.304> 2<00:25:38.465> things<00:25:38.690> they<00:25:38.786> were<00:25:38.931> looking<00:25:39.268> for.

00:25:40.135 --> 00:25:40.231
Huh.

00:25:40.296 --> 00:25:52.965
So<00:25:40.408> we<00:25:40.552> thought<00:25:40.890> if<00:25:41.034> we<00:25:41.179> could<00:25:41.339> create<00:25:41.757> camaraderie<00:25:42.720> and<00:25:42.801> we<00:25:42.945> could<00:25:43.041> provide<00:25:43.443> great<00:25:43.764> content,<00:25:44.487> but<00:25:44.792> only<00:25:45.113> content<00:25:45.755> that<00:25:45.852> would<00:25:46.012> be<00:25:47.200> more<00:25:47.361> forcibly<00:25:48.341> applied<00:25:48.983> and<00:25:49.288> easily<00:25:49.625> applied,<00:25:50.669> then<00:25:50.990> maybe<00:25:51.375> there's<00:25:51.552> a<00:25:51.632> reason<00:25:52.034> we<00:25:52.114> should<00:25:52.339> keep<00:25:52.580> going.

00:25:53.479 --> 00:25:57.348
And<00:25:53.559> when<00:25:53.720> we<00:25:54.442> Met<00:25:54.603> with<00:25:54.763> some<00:25:55.229> spiritual<00:25:55.807> advisors<00:25:56.610> and<00:25:56.770> prayed<00:25:57.027> about<00:25:57.252> it.

00:25:57.412 --> 00:25:58.841
That's<00:25:57.717> what<00:25:57.878> we<00:25:57.974> kind<00:25:58.199> of<00:25:58.279> people<00:25:58.536> do.

00:25:59.178 --> 00:26:16.483
What<00:25:59.322> we<00:25:59.419> heard<00:25:59.724> was<00:26:00.205> that<00:26:00.382> we<00:26:00.542> were<00:26:01.120> supposed<00:26:01.506> to<00:26:01.602> not<00:26:01.891> only<00:26:02.148> keep<00:26:02.469> doing<00:26:03.255> the<00:26:03.352> roundtable<00:26:03.978> experience,<00:26:05.101> we<00:26:05.182> were<00:26:05.278> supposed<00:26:05.519> to<00:26:05.663> figure<00:26:05.984> out<00:26:06.145> a<00:26:06.241> way<00:26:06.402> to<00:26:06.482> take<00:26:06.867> everything<00:26:07.429> we<00:26:07.509> were<00:26:07.606> providing<00:26:08.649> the<00:26:08.809> largest<00:26:09.275> companies,<00:26:10.094> cutting<00:26:10.479> the<00:26:10.575> largest<00:26:11.057> checks,<00:26:12.100> to<00:26:12.245> the<00:26:12.421> individual,<00:26:13.690> even<00:26:13.882> solopreneurs,<00:26:14.893> the<00:26:14.990> very<00:26:15.231> smallest<00:26:15.937> businesses.

00:26:17.093 --> 00:26:21.459
So<00:26:17.221> we<00:26:17.382> basically<00:26:17.879> created<00:26:18.345> a<00:26:18.586> fairly<00:26:19.789> structured<00:26:20.528> 2-year<00:26:20.929> curriculum.

00:26:21.892 --> 00:26:34.283
And<00:26:22.036> that<00:26:22.197> curriculum<00:26:22.677> was<00:26:22.854> designed<00:26:23.495> that<00:26:24.281> on<00:26:24.377> their<00:26:24.681> own<00:26:24.922> volition<00:26:25.563> and<00:26:25.659> through<00:26:25.819> their<00:26:26.060> own<00:26:26.284> energy<00:26:26.701> with<00:26:26.877> a<00:26:26.925> little<00:26:27.102> bit<00:26:27.262> of<00:26:27.406> coaching,<00:26:28.384> the<00:26:28.464> smallest<00:26:29.106> business<00:26:29.570> owner<00:26:29.811> would<00:26:29.987> get<00:26:30.228> pretty<00:26:30.468> much<00:26:30.773> everything<00:26:31.173> we<00:26:31.270> have<00:26:31.430> in<00:26:31.494> our<00:26:31.670> toolkit<00:26:32.712> that<00:26:32.873> we<00:26:33.017> provide<00:26:33.418> the<00:26:33.450> largest<00:26:33.834> companies.

00:26:35.261 --> 00:26:39.381
And<00:26:35.357> we<00:26:35.598> iterated<00:26:36.143> on<00:26:36.239> that<00:26:36.479> for<00:26:36.704> 4<00:26:36.800> or<00:26:37.024> 5<00:26:37.345> years<00:26:37.922> and<00:26:38.002> it<00:26:38.147> felt<00:26:38.467> really<00:26:38.724> amazing.

00:26:39.429 --> 00:26:41.641
And<00:26:39.525> we<00:26:39.685> thought,<00:26:39.926> this<00:26:40.086> is<00:26:40.247> just<00:26:40.407> the<00:26:40.551> best<00:26:40.679> stuff<00:26:40.984> in<00:26:41.112> the<00:26:41.272> world.

00:26:42.010 --> 00:26:47.909
And<00:26:42.186> we<00:26:42.330> weren't<00:26:42.651> really<00:26:42.956> growing<00:26:43.453> and<00:26:43.693> we<00:26:43.917> haven't<00:26:44.174> never,<00:26:44.559> we've<00:26:44.671> never<00:26:44.879> really<00:26:45.056> tried<00:26:45.456> to<00:26:45.536> grow,<00:26:45.937> but<00:26:46.178> we<00:26:46.338> weren't<00:26:46.578> growing<00:26:47.220> organically.

00:26:48.502 --> 00:26:53.921
And<00:26:48.646> someone<00:26:49.047> called<00:26:49.368> on<00:26:49.480> us<00:26:49.624> from<00:26:49.849> Africa<00:26:50.329> and<00:26:50.442> said,<00:26:50.682> I'm<00:26:50.810> from<00:26:50.987> South<00:26:51.291> Africa<00:26:52.269> and<00:26:52.333> we<00:26:52.429> have<00:26:52.574> the<00:26:52.654> worst<00:26:52.910> economy<00:26:53.327> in<00:26:53.455> the<00:26:53.520> world.

00:26:54.354 --> 00:26:55.669
Would<00:26:54.514> you<00:26:54.659> consider<00:26:55.076> coming<00:26:55.461> over?

00:26:55.798 --> 00:26:56.840
And<00:26:55.942> we<00:26:56.038> said,<00:26:56.600> no.

00:26:57.723 --> 00:27:00.610
He<00:26:58.188> came<00:26:58.445> back<00:26:58.685> again<00:26:59.086> a<00:26:59.150> few<00:26:59.231> years<00:26:59.487> later,<00:26:59.872> and<00:26:59.969> we<00:27:00.049> said,<00:27:00.354> no.

00:27:01.332 --> 00:27:08.487
And<00:27:01.396> then<00:27:01.573> finally,<00:27:01.974> he<00:27:02.134> came<00:27:02.439> back,<00:27:02.856> and<00:27:03.241> I<00:27:03.337> guess<00:27:04.444> something<00:27:04.862> had<00:27:05.022> really<00:27:05.343> driven<00:27:05.744> both<00:27:05.984> Paul<00:27:06.225> and<00:27:06.386> I<00:27:06.690> to<00:27:06.803> the<00:27:06.947> understanding<00:27:07.509> we<00:27:07.653> were<00:27:07.749> supposed<00:27:08.086> to<00:27:08.230> go.

00:27:09.209 --> 00:27:12.594
So<00:27:10.075> he<00:27:10.316> asked,<00:27:10.589> do<00:27:10.637> you<00:27:10.717> have<00:27:10.958> anything<00:27:11.278> you<00:27:11.423> could<00:27:11.599> bring<00:27:11.840> to<00:27:11.936> our<00:27:12.145> country?

00:27:13.268 --> 00:27:25.123
And<00:27:13.348> ironically,<00:27:13.909> we've<00:27:14.086> got<00:27:14.311> this<00:27:14.503> very<00:27:14.968> articulated,<00:27:16.572> laid-out<00:27:17.856> content,<00:27:18.802> and<00:27:19.765> it's<00:27:19.957> designed—<00:27:20.888> this<00:27:21.064> is<00:27:21.225> a<00:27:21.289> whole<00:27:21.481> other<00:27:21.706> topic<00:27:22.107> we<00:27:22.139> can<00:27:22.268> get<00:27:22.428> to<00:27:22.588> later,<00:27:22.909> but<00:27:23.070> just<00:27:23.310> maybe<00:27:24.016> Mark<00:27:24.337> Nuchol,<00:27:24.738> I<00:27:24.818> think<00:27:24.978> it<00:27:25.075> is.

00:27:33.960 --> 00:27:40.087
And<00:27:34.040> we<00:27:34.152> met<00:27:34.441> with<00:27:34.553> 66<00:27:35.259> leaders<00:27:35.740> in<00:27:35.820> 3<00:27:35.997> cities<00:27:37.248> and<00:27:37.601> 2<00:27:37.825> or<00:27:37.889> 3<00:27:38.146> of<00:27:38.226> them<00:27:38.403> said<00:27:38.788> our<00:27:38.948> country<00:27:39.349> needs<00:27:39.654> this.

00:29:34.483 --> 00:29:48.227
But<00:29:34.628> what<00:29:34.788> we<00:29:34.820> found<00:29:35.270> more<00:29:35.446> interesting<00:29:35.992> was<00:29:36.153> that<00:29:36.330> faithy<00:29:36.795> people<00:29:37.678> were<00:29:37.839> re-experiencing<00:29:39.460> the<00:29:39.541> glory<00:29:40.103> and<00:29:40.247> understanding<00:29:40.922> of<00:29:40.986> their<00:29:41.146> identity<00:29:42.029> and<00:29:42.174> their<00:29:42.335> story<00:29:43.394> and<00:29:43.539> what<00:29:43.699> they<00:29:43.860> were<00:29:43.956> created<00:29:44.438> for<00:29:45.225> in<00:29:45.401> ways<00:29:45.867> that<00:29:46.188> significantly<00:29:47.103> moved<00:29:47.408> the<00:29:47.489> needle<00:29:47.810> on<00:29:47.970> them.

00:29:48.869 --> 00:29:52.082
So<00:29:49.255> increasingly,<00:29:49.978> we<00:29:50.122> move<00:29:50.395> toward<00:29:50.700> more<00:29:51.022> neutral<00:29:51.503> language.

00:29:52.130 --> 00:30:10.583

00:30:10.696 --> 00:30:10.792
Right.

00:30:11.402 --> 00:30:17.772
And<00:30:11.483> so<00:30:11.836> the<00:30:11.980> receptivity<00:30:13.024> has<00:30:13.201> not<00:30:13.490> only<00:30:13.731> been<00:30:13.972> significant,<00:30:15.192> But<00:30:15.288> it's<00:30:15.496> really<00:30:15.753> differentiated<00:30:16.554> itself<00:30:17.115> in<00:30:17.179> the<00:30:17.259> market.

00:30:18.301 --> 00:30:23.541
And<00:30:18.461> finally,<00:30:19.919> it's<00:30:20.144> just<00:30:20.304> spread<00:30:20.560> like<00:30:20.801> wildfire<00:30:21.442> because<00:30:21.762> they<00:30:21.906> can<00:30:22.323> introduce<00:30:22.804> it<00:30:22.884> to<00:30:23.108> anyone.

00:32:35.920 --> 00:32:36.048
Yeah.

00:32:36.914 --> 00:32:44.288
So<00:32:37.058> the<00:32:37.202> culture<00:32:38.324> that<00:32:38.485> we<00:32:38.581> have<00:32:38.741> been,<00:32:39.382> I<00:32:39.447> guess,<00:32:39.687> called<00:32:40.056> to<00:32:40.328> operate<00:32:40.889> out<00:32:41.082> of<00:32:41.226> on<00:32:41.386> behalf<00:32:41.787> of<00:32:41.931> others,<00:32:42.813> we're<00:32:42.973> experiencing<00:32:43.711> it<00:32:43.871> back.

And<00:32:44.977> it's<00:32:45.474> more<00:32:45.795> than<00:32:45.939> I<00:32:46.035> could<00:32:46.180> have<00:32:46.340> ever<00:32:46.837> fashioned,<00:32:47.783> worth<00:32:48.023> more<00:32:48.280> than<00:32:49.626> the<00:32:49.706> treasury<00:32:50.123> stock<00:32:50.588> and<00:32:50.668> stock<00:32:51.069> options<00:32:51.646> and<00:32:51.790> title<00:32:52.608> and<00:32:53.089> parking<00:32:53.586> space<00:32:54.275> and<00:32:55.013> the<00:32:55.269> Excel<00:32:55.670> spreadsheet<00:32:56.455> full<00:32:56.680> of<00:32:56.776> lots<00:32:57.097> of<00:32:57.193> zeros<00:32:57.802> that<00:32:57.962> my<00:32:58.139> life<00:32:58.443> would<00:32:58.539> be<00:32:58.700> worth<00:32:58.876> financially.

00:33:00.193 --> 00:33:05.355

00:37:33.300 --> 00:37:40.006

00:37:41.160 --> 00:37:46.402
There's<00:37:41.384> a<00:37:41.561> ton<00:37:41.881> of<00:37:41.962> people<00:37:42.186> that<00:37:42.298> are<00:37:42.362> in<00:37:42.442> pain,<00:37:43.629> and<00:37:43.709> there's<00:37:43.901> not<00:37:44.206> a<00:37:44.222> lot<00:37:44.462> of<00:37:44.526> people<00:37:44.911> that<00:37:45.023> are<00:37:45.104> sincerely<00:37:45.825> motivated.

00:37:46.450 --> 00:37:51.869
They<00:37:46.546> don't<00:37:46.835> like<00:37:47.172> it<00:37:47.316> and<00:37:47.412> like<00:37:47.636> to<00:37:47.733> complain<00:37:48.214> about<00:37:48.534> it,<00:37:49.095> but<00:37:49.416> the<00:37:49.640> number<00:37:49.977> of<00:37:50.057> people<00:37:50.394> that<00:37:50.522> are<00:37:50.602> in<00:37:50.698> pain<00:37:51.019> is<00:37:51.115> significant.

00:37:52.221 --> 00:37:55.780
The<00:37:52.301> number<00:37:52.622> who<00:37:52.782> are<00:37:52.927> truly<00:37:53.263> motivated<00:37:53.985> to<00:37:54.081> do<00:37:54.225> something<00:37:54.610> about<00:37:54.882> it<00:37:55.027> is<00:37:55.171> much<00:37:55.347> smaller.

00:37:56.469 --> 00:38:09.918
The<00:37:56.550> number<00:37:56.934> that<00:37:57.047> are<00:37:57.271> really<00:37:57.816> open<00:37:58.874> to<00:37:59.114> parenting,<00:38:00.237> sitting<00:38:00.637> under<00:38:00.894> a<00:38:00.958> sage,<00:38:01.840> being<00:38:02.032> mentored,<00:38:02.802> coached,<00:38:03.363> encouraged,<00:38:04.004> fathered,<00:38:04.485> mothered,<00:38:04.741> whatever<00:38:05.030> term<00:38:05.350> you<00:38:05.447> want<00:38:05.575> to<00:38:05.831> use,<00:38:06.633> is<00:38:07.114> almost<00:38:08.893> almost<00:38:09.117> nonexistent.

00:38:10.735 --> 00:38:19.691

00:38:20.733 --> 00:38:21.774
Yeah,<00:38:20.813> I<00:38:20.989> resonate<00:38:21.389> with<00:38:21.550> that.

00:38:23.216 --> 00:38:27.670
How<00:38:23.312> do<00:38:23.456> you<00:38:23.536> determine<00:38:24.353> if<00:38:24.850> somebody<00:38:25.859> has<00:38:26.516> the<00:38:26.661> 3<00:38:26.901> legs<00:38:27.173> of<00:38:27.237> the<00:38:27.317> stool?

00:38:29.064 --> 00:38:31.803
I<00:38:29.096> mean,<00:38:29.224> 'cause<00:38:29.480> you<00:38:29.576> don't<00:38:29.801> waste<00:38:30.361> your<00:38:30.522> time<00:38:31.147> with<00:38:31.387> people.

00:38:32.108 --> 00:38:34.767
Like,<00:38:32.348> I<00:38:32.380> feel<00:38:32.749> like<00:38:32.909> you're<00:38:33.005> fiercely<00:38:33.406> protective<00:38:34.110> of<00:38:34.191> your<00:38:34.367> time.

00:38:35.568 --> 00:38:43.289
So<00:38:35.745> how<00:38:35.889> do<00:38:35.969> you<00:38:36.129> determine<00:38:36.674> when<00:38:36.770> you<00:38:36.866> meet<00:38:37.106> somebody<00:38:37.651> if<00:38:38.119> If<00:38:38.281> they<00:38:38.443> actually<00:38:40.388> are<00:38:40.485> in<00:38:40.631> pain,<00:38:41.522> are<00:38:41.717> motivated<00:38:42.187> to<00:38:42.268> change,<00:38:42.673> and<00:38:42.754> are<00:38:42.835> coachable?

00:38:43.872 --> 00:38:45.557
You<00:38:44.002> don't<00:38:44.115> have<00:38:44.310> to<00:38:44.455> talk<00:38:44.780> to<00:38:44.877> them<00:38:45.087> very<00:38:45.331> long.

00:38:47.720 --> 00:38:50.859
And<00:38:47.897> this<00:38:48.074> is<00:38:48.219> going<00:38:48.331> to<00:38:48.396> sound—<00:38:49.523> this<00:38:49.748> is<00:38:49.845> an<00:38:49.989> oversimplification.

00:38:51.535 --> 00:38:51.986
I<00:38:51.599> love<00:38:51.776> those.

00:38:53.064 --> 00:38:59.161
But<00:38:53.692> you<00:38:53.853> often—<00:38:54.417> often<00:38:54.851> I'll<00:38:55.222> hear<00:38:55.495> someone<00:38:56.268> has<00:38:56.445> been<00:38:56.606> told<00:38:56.864> they're<00:38:57.009> supposed<00:38:57.315> to<00:38:57.460> meet<00:38:57.573> with<00:38:57.735> me<00:38:57.897> or<00:38:58.059> that<00:38:58.221> I<00:38:58.302> need<00:38:58.529> to<00:38:58.610> meet<00:38:58.853> with<00:38:59.015> them.

00:39:00.149 --> 00:39:01.996
And<00:39:00.311> they<00:39:00.408> sit<00:39:00.651> down<00:39:00.878> in<00:39:00.975> a<00:39:01.056> couple<00:39:01.316> of<00:39:01.381> postures.

00:39:02.596 --> 00:39:06.767
One,<00:39:02.839> they<00:39:03.001> come<00:39:03.552> with<00:39:04.132> hundreds<00:39:04.469> of<00:39:04.534> questions<00:39:06.060> and<00:39:06.205> a<00:39:06.221> notebook.

00:39:07.490 --> 00:39:10.848
And<00:39:07.586> they're<00:39:07.908> super<00:39:08.390> hungry<00:39:08.872> to<00:39:09.097> hear<00:39:09.498> and<00:39:09.675> know<00:39:09.996> and<00:39:10.141> understand.

00:39:11.426 --> 00:39:12.744
And<00:39:11.507> they<00:39:11.667> respect<00:39:12.149> the<00:39:12.246> time.

00:39:13.917 --> 00:39:19.074
They're<00:39:14.077> more<00:39:14.415> fastidious<00:39:15.298> and<00:39:15.523> more<00:39:16.905> committed<00:39:17.467> to<00:39:17.612> the<00:39:17.708> timeframe<00:39:18.271> than<00:39:18.431> even<00:39:18.672> I<00:39:18.833> am.

00:39:19.942 --> 00:39:22.368
So<00:39:20.038> they're<00:39:20.424> honoring<00:39:20.842> the<00:39:20.922> time<00:39:21.324> and<00:39:21.404> believe<00:39:21.725> it's<00:39:21.886> an<00:39:22.030> honor.

00:39:23.075 --> 00:39:25.581
And<00:39:23.252> they<00:39:23.975> take<00:39:24.280> notes<00:39:24.617> and<00:39:24.778> follow<00:39:25.164> through.

00:39:26.047 --> 00:39:32.023
I<00:39:26.144> was<00:39:26.304> in<00:39:26.401> a<00:39:26.529> coffee<00:39:26.867> shop<00:39:27.172> one<00:39:27.349> day,<00:39:28.152> and<00:39:28.232> I<00:39:28.313> saw<00:39:28.554> 2<00:39:28.795> men<00:39:29.196> over<00:39:29.357> in<00:39:29.437> the<00:39:29.518> corner<00:39:29.775> meeting<00:39:30.225> a<00:39:30.546> 30-year-old<00:39:31.140> and<00:39:31.285> a<00:39:31.349> 20-year-old.

00:39:32.794 --> 00:39:37.274
And<00:39:33.051> they<00:39:33.212> waved<00:39:33.597> at<00:39:33.774> me<00:39:34.320> and<00:39:34.978> I<00:39:35.604> kind<00:39:35.765> of<00:39:35.797> waved<00:39:36.022> back,<00:39:36.423> but<00:39:36.568> I<00:39:36.648> was<00:39:36.744> in<00:39:36.841> a<00:39:36.905> meeting.

00:39:38.174 --> 00:39:41.931
And<00:39:38.334> finally,<00:39:38.832> the<00:39:38.993> older<00:39:39.298> one<00:39:39.474> came<00:39:39.779> over<00:39:39.956> and<00:39:40.052> said,<00:39:40.341> hey,<00:39:40.518> we're<00:39:40.679> ready<00:39:40.984> for<00:39:41.160> you<00:39:41.241> whenever<00:39:41.546> you're<00:39:41.626> ready.

00:39:43.071 --> 00:39:44.998
And<00:39:43.184> someone<00:39:43.569> else<00:39:43.874> manages<00:39:44.356> my<00:39:44.452> schedule.

00:39:45.079 --> 00:39:48.033
And<00:39:45.159> I<00:39:45.255> didn't<00:39:45.416> have<00:39:45.592> a<00:39:45.673> meeting<00:39:45.978> on<00:39:46.058> my<00:39:46.219> schedule<00:39:46.941> other<00:39:47.182> than<00:39:47.327> the<00:39:47.407> one<00:39:47.584> I<00:39:47.664> was<00:39:47.889> in.

00:39:48.708 --> 00:39:50.442
But<00:39:48.852> I<00:39:48.933> wrapped<00:39:49.190> that<00:39:49.414> up<00:39:49.527> and<00:39:49.655> went<00:39:49.816> and<00:39:49.912> sat<00:39:50.153> with<00:39:50.298> them.

00:39:51.133 --> 00:39:51.839
Just<00:39:51.277> went<00:39:51.373> over<00:39:51.598> there.

00:39:51.984 --> 00:39:52.963
I<00:39:52.064> hear<00:39:52.225> this<00:39:52.417> very<00:39:52.803> often.

00:39:53.911 --> 00:39:56.560
There's<00:39:54.071> an<00:39:54.168> older<00:39:54.392> guy<00:39:54.505> saying,<00:39:55.131> my<00:39:55.292> younger<00:39:55.533> brother<00:39:55.773> needs<00:39:55.966> to<00:39:56.095> be<00:39:56.191> mentored.

00:39:56.737 --> 00:39:57.781
He's<00:39:56.898> looking<00:39:57.203> for<00:39:57.299> a<00:39:57.444> mentor.

00:39:59.050 --> 00:40:08.702
And<00:39:59.692> I'm<00:40:01.250> mildly<00:40:01.876> bothered<00:40:02.438> because<00:40:02.776> it's<00:40:02.936> not<00:40:03.161> on<00:40:03.241> my<00:40:03.338> schedule<00:40:04.125> and<00:40:04.221> I<00:40:04.237> don't<00:40:04.382> really<00:40:04.751> know<00:40:05.008> them<00:40:05.474> and<00:40:05.586> someone<00:40:06.036> is<00:40:07.016> posturing<00:40:07.562> for<00:40:07.658> their<00:40:07.803> younger<00:40:08.365> brother.

00:40:09.489 --> 00:40:13.119
And<00:40:09.650> I<00:40:09.778> said,<00:40:09.891> I'll<00:40:10.228> tell<00:40:10.373> you<00:40:10.453> what,<00:40:10.854> there's<00:40:11.015> this<00:40:11.176> podcast<00:40:11.914> on<00:40:12.075> mentoring<00:40:12.557> that<00:40:12.701> I<00:40:12.733> like.

00:40:13.601 --> 00:40:19.029
Why<00:40:13.633> don't<00:40:13.826> you<00:40:13.858> read<00:40:14.002> the<00:40:14.083> podcast,<00:40:14.661> listen<00:40:14.837> to<00:40:14.950> the<00:40:15.030> podcast,<00:40:16.331> then<00:40:16.492> call<00:40:16.668> me<00:40:16.813> up<00:40:16.877> and<00:40:16.974> tell<00:40:17.150> me<00:40:17.214> if<00:40:17.359> you're<00:40:17.439> still<00:40:17.696> interested<00:40:18.018> in<00:40:18.162> having<00:40:18.355> a<00:40:18.419> conversation.

00:40:19.881 --> 00:40:21.374
So<00:40:20.186> is<00:40:20.346> this<00:40:20.571> one<00:40:20.748> episode<00:40:21.230> or?

00:40:21.551 --> 00:40:22.001
One<00:40:21.712> episode.

00:40:22.097 --> 00:40:22.531
Okay,<00:40:22.354> yeah.

00:40:22.579 --> 00:40:24.217
About<00:40:22.836> what<00:40:23.141> mentoring<00:40:23.719> looks<00:40:23.864> like.

00:40:24.907 --> 00:40:28.114
And<00:40:24.987> so<00:40:25.308> he<00:40:25.468> writes<00:40:25.805> me<00:40:25.885> several<00:40:26.222> pages<00:40:26.607> of<00:40:26.687> notes<00:40:27.232> after<00:40:27.409> he<00:40:27.553> listened<00:40:27.810> to<00:40:28.034> it.

00:40:28.291 --> 00:40:28.740
Beautiful.

00:40:28.932 --> 00:40:29.397
Beautiful.

00:40:29.493 --> 00:40:30.151
Yeah,<00:40:29.718> I<00:40:29.814> love<00:40:30.055> it.

00:40:30.295 --> 00:40:32.172
And<00:40:30.392> so<00:40:30.600> I<00:40:30.760> met<00:40:30.937> with<00:40:31.081> him<00:40:31.193> and<00:40:31.258> I'm<00:40:31.402> still<00:40:31.659> not<00:40:31.883> sure.

00:40:33.086 --> 00:40:38.458
And<00:40:33.808> I<00:40:33.840> said,<00:40:34.208> you<00:40:34.241> know<00:40:34.369> what,<00:40:34.465> there's<00:40:34.625> this<00:40:34.866> book<00:40:35.267> about<00:40:35.572> the<00:40:35.668> masculine<00:40:36.229> journey<00:40:36.630> that's<00:40:36.871> had<00:40:37.031> a<00:40:37.095> really<00:40:37.272> big<00:40:37.496> impact<00:40:37.833> on<00:40:37.913> my<00:40:37.993> life.

00:40:38.955 --> 00:40:41.634
Why<00:40:38.988> don't<00:40:39.212> you<00:40:39.292> just<00:40:39.517> go<00:40:39.693> to<00:40:40.142> Amazon<00:40:40.720> and<00:40:40.864> read<00:40:41.040> the<00:40:41.120> description?

00:40:42.387 --> 00:40:47.872
And<00:40:42.452> if<00:40:42.484> it<00:40:42.564> sounds<00:40:42.981> like<00:40:43.189> something<00:40:43.430> you<00:40:43.526> might<00:40:43.751> want<00:40:43.831> to<00:40:43.927> work<00:40:44.168> through,<00:40:44.985> maybe<00:40:45.274> that's<00:40:45.996> a<00:40:46.092> guide<00:40:46.493> that<00:40:46.637> you<00:40:46.798> and<00:40:46.878> I<00:40:46.974> could<00:40:47.215> use<00:40:47.391> to<00:40:47.519> work<00:40:47.776> through.

00:40:48.883 --> 00:40:54.415
So<00:40:49.556> a<00:40:49.620> few<00:40:49.781> weeks<00:40:50.005> later,<00:40:50.246> he<00:40:50.326> comes<00:40:50.582> back,<00:40:50.967> he<00:40:51.064> bought<00:40:51.368> the<00:40:51.448> book,<00:40:51.705> read<00:40:51.946> it,<00:40:52.090> has<00:40:52.250> taken<00:40:52.571> notes<00:40:52.892> on<00:40:53.052> it,<00:40:53.132> has<00:40:53.245> a<00:40:53.373> ton<00:40:53.549> of<00:40:53.613> questions<00:40:54.095> for<00:40:54.191> me.

00:40:54.672 --> 00:40:55.508
That<00:40:54.785> he<00:40:54.897> wants<00:40:55.010> to<00:40:55.170> meet<00:40:55.395> with.

00:40:56.102 --> 00:41:02.720
And<00:40:56.182> this<00:40:56.423> is<00:40:56.520> during<00:40:56.825> COVID<00:40:57.467> early<00:40:57.708> days<00:40:57.901> of<00:40:58.030> COVID<00:40:59.154> So<00:41:00.536> I<00:41:00.600> meet<00:41:00.777> with<00:41:00.921> him<00:41:01.034> again,<00:41:01.483> we<00:41:01.516> start<00:41:01.821> to<00:41:01.901> work<00:41:02.062> through<00:41:02.287> the<00:41:02.383> book.

00:41:02.769 --> 00:41:06.849
And<00:41:02.849> he<00:41:02.961> says,<00:41:03.668> listen,<00:41:04.857> I<00:41:05.194> respect<00:41:05.692> and<00:41:05.772> appreciate<00:41:06.303> your<00:41:06.463> time.

00:41:07.363 --> 00:41:09.258
And<00:41:07.507> I<00:41:07.588> have<00:41:07.764> a<00:41:07.845> lot<00:41:08.070> of<00:41:08.166> time<00:41:08.503> at<00:41:08.632> this<00:41:08.873> age.

00:41:09.708 --> 00:41:11.588
So<00:41:10.335> I<00:41:10.351> know<00:41:10.560> you've<00:41:10.656> got<00:41:10.817> a<00:41:10.833> large<00:41:11.186> family.

00:41:11.861 --> 00:41:16.246
If<00:41:12.005> you<00:41:12.102> need<00:41:12.278> someone<00:41:12.600> to<00:41:12.680> go<00:41:12.825> stand<00:41:13.130> in<00:41:13.210> the<00:41:13.306> grocery<00:41:13.628> line<00:41:13.869> for<00:41:14.094> you,<00:41:14.849> I<00:41:14.977> used<00:41:15.090> to<00:41:15.234> detail<00:41:15.716> cars.

00:41:17.065 --> 00:41:18.238
I'd<00:41:17.226> love<00:41:17.339> to<00:41:17.483> detail<00:41:17.869> your<00:41:18.029> car.

00:41:18.929 --> 00:41:22.029
Anything<00:41:19.330> I<00:41:19.475> can<00:41:19.652> do<00:41:19.893> just<00:41:20.069> to<00:41:20.214> show<00:41:20.519> you<00:41:20.680> gratitude<00:41:21.274> and<00:41:21.354> acknowledgement.

00:41:22.543 --> 00:41:24.596
How<00:41:22.639> much<00:41:22.863> time<00:41:23.088> do<00:41:23.168> you<00:41:23.248> think<00:41:23.489> I<00:41:23.505> had<00:41:23.730> for<00:41:23.810> that<00:41:23.986> young<00:41:24.131> man,<00:41:24.371> Jon?

00:41:25.013 --> 00:41:26.697
Probably<00:41:25.430> a<00:41:25.510> ton.

00:41:27.259 --> 00:41:30.900
As<00:41:27.451> much<00:41:27.740> as<00:41:27.820> he<00:41:27.980> wanted,<00:41:28.398> and<00:41:28.542> I<00:41:28.574> never<00:41:28.943> took<00:41:29.119> him<00:41:29.280> up<00:41:29.504> on<00:41:29.601> the<00:41:29.761> groceries<00:41:30.258> or<00:41:30.306> the<00:41:30.403> car.

00:41:31.445 --> 00:41:38.792
It<00:41:31.525> was<00:41:31.686> just<00:41:31.926> the<00:41:32.007> posture,<00:41:32.664> the<00:41:32.953> attitude<00:41:33.996> that<00:41:34.092> I<00:41:34.236> really<00:41:34.557> want<00:41:34.686> to<00:41:34.814> grow<00:41:35.215> and<00:41:35.359> I'm<00:41:35.536> really<00:41:35.840> hungry<00:41:36.819> and<00:41:36.867> I'm<00:41:37.044> taking<00:41:37.445> our<00:41:37.541> time<00:41:37.926> very<00:41:38.102> seriously.

00:41:39.385 --> 00:41:42.642
That's<00:41:39.626> a<00:41:39.706> pretty<00:41:39.947> significant<00:41:41.230> knowledge<00:41:41.631> that<00:41:41.727> it's<00:41:41.936> the<00:41:42.016> right<00:41:42.257> person.

00:41:43.059 --> 00:41:46.042
Other<00:41:43.396> times<00:41:44.214> it's<00:41:44.599> an<00:41:44.679> assignment.

00:41:46.123 --> 00:41:53.966
I<00:41:46.203> feel<00:41:46.443> like<00:41:46.668> it's<00:41:46.828> an<00:41:46.925> assignment<00:41:47.566> and<00:41:47.711> I<00:41:47.743> maybe<00:41:48.128> wouldn't<00:41:48.449> choose<00:41:48.866> to<00:41:48.978> meet<00:41:49.170> with<00:41:49.315> them,<00:41:49.972> And<00:41:50.165> I'm<00:41:50.357> not<00:41:50.598> seeing<00:41:51.159> all<00:41:51.336> of<00:41:51.400> those<00:41:51.720> indicators,<00:41:52.538> but<00:41:52.699> I<00:41:52.779> see<00:41:53.035> something<00:41:53.597> in<00:41:53.741> there.

00:41:54.848 --> 00:41:56.355
And<00:41:54.944> I<00:41:55.104> am<00:41:55.505> very<00:41:55.810> ferocious.

00:41:57.093 --> 00:42:00.798
I<00:41:57.269> often<00:41:57.590> sit<00:41:57.863> down<00:41:58.216> with<00:41:58.312> someone<00:41:59.354> and<00:41:59.450> see<00:41:59.675> them<00:41:59.819> with<00:41:59.916> a<00:41:59.996> suit<00:42:00.252> of<00:42:00.381> armor.

00:42:01.038 --> 00:42:03.203
When<00:42:01.198> they're<00:42:01.423> really<00:42:01.680> guarded,<00:42:02.161> they<00:42:02.241> have<00:42:02.401> a<00:42:02.417> suit<00:42:02.722> of<00:42:02.802> armor.

00:42:03.764 --> 00:42:07.966
And<00:42:03.909> even<00:42:04.165> in<00:42:04.262> a<00:42:04.326> suit<00:42:04.630> of<00:42:04.791> armor,<00:42:05.031> there<00:42:05.128> were<00:42:05.224> several<00:42:05.609> places<00:42:06.074> that<00:42:06.170> the<00:42:06.314> sword<00:42:07.052> could<00:42:07.293> make<00:42:07.469> its<00:42:07.613> way<00:42:07.774> in.

00:42:08.335 --> 00:42:08.592
Yeah.

00:42:08.816 --> 00:42:15.039
And<00:42:08.961> I<00:42:09.057> feel<00:42:09.217> like<00:42:09.634> through<00:42:09.859> questions,<00:42:10.725> through<00:42:10.981> being<00:42:11.286> curious,<00:42:12.425> through<00:42:12.521> discernment,<00:42:13.932> I'm<00:42:14.012> going<00:42:14.109> to<00:42:14.189> figure<00:42:14.493> out<00:42:14.590> the<00:42:14.670> way<00:42:14.910> in.

00:42:15.696 --> 00:42:16.739
And<00:42:15.937> I'm<00:42:16.194> getting<00:42:16.434> in<00:42:16.579> there.

00:42:17.060 --> 00:42:17.285
Yeah.

00:42:17.381 --> 00:42:18.167
Because<00:42:17.718> it<00:42:17.798> matters.

00:42:18.616 --> 00:42:19.611
It<00:42:18.696> matters<00:42:19.161> for<00:42:19.258> them.

00:42:20.060 --> 00:42:24.584
So<00:42:20.268> yeah,<00:42:20.349> I'm<00:42:20.525> pretty<00:42:20.846> tenacious<00:42:21.423> about<00:42:21.648> pursuing<00:42:22.209> people<00:42:23.092> and<00:42:23.236> very<00:42:23.493> guarded<00:42:23.830> about<00:42:24.054> my<00:42:24.215> time.

00:42:25.081 --> 00:42:26.862

00:42:39.936 --> 00:42:43.786
My<00:42:40.161> dad<00:42:40.353> is<00:42:40.433> in<00:42:40.497> the<00:42:40.578> process<00:42:40.995> of<00:42:41.139> dying,<00:42:41.685> and<00:42:42.503> John<00:42:42.743> is<00:42:42.824> a<00:42:42.888> psychiatrist.

00:42:46.418 --> 00:42:52.698
And<00:42:47.381> I'm<00:42:47.478> a<00:42:47.542> very<00:42:47.799> hard-headed,<00:42:48.923> intentional<00:42:49.486> person,<00:42:49.967> so<00:42:50.112> maybe<00:42:50.449> I<00:42:50.610> fit<00:42:51.172> some<00:42:51.413> of<00:42:51.445> that<00:42:51.574> profile,<00:42:52.216> I<00:42:52.280> don't<00:42:52.473> know.

00:42:53.100 --> 00:42:56.922
But<00:42:53.260> John<00:42:53.581> took<00:42:53.758> a<00:42:53.822> real<00:42:53.983> interest<00:42:54.368> in<00:42:54.465> me,<00:42:54.706> and<00:42:54.786> for<00:42:54.931> a<00:42:55.011> couple<00:42:55.204> of<00:42:55.332> years,<00:42:55.750> we<00:42:55.846> met<00:42:56.216> very<00:42:56.473> often.

00:42:57.677 --> 00:43:03.476
And<00:42:57.758> it<00:42:57.822> was<00:42:57.982> at<00:42:58.063> a<00:42:58.143> time<00:42:58.464> when<00:42:58.561> I<00:42:58.625> was<00:42:58.802> growing<00:42:59.187> dramatically,<00:43:00.167> and<00:43:00.279> I<00:43:00.311> was<00:43:00.552> coming<00:43:00.874> alive,<00:43:01.468> and<00:43:01.757> all<00:43:01.869> this<00:43:02.159> transformation<00:43:02.881> was<00:43:03.106> happening.

00:43:03.942 --> 00:43:05.692
But<00:43:04.086> John<00:43:04.423> guided<00:43:04.761> me<00:43:04.905> during<00:43:05.146> that<00:43:05.307> time.

00:43:06.351 --> 00:43:11.571
And<00:43:06.431> at<00:43:06.511> some<00:43:06.833> point,<00:43:07.138> I<00:43:07.234> introduced<00:43:07.620> him<00:43:07.716> to<00:43:07.796> a<00:43:07.877> couple<00:43:08.118> of<00:43:08.182> my<00:43:08.423> friends,<00:43:08.985> and<00:43:09.226> all<00:43:09.306> of<00:43:09.338> a<00:43:09.403> sudden,<00:43:09.868> John<00:43:10.607> couldn't<00:43:10.832> meet<00:43:10.993> with<00:43:11.169> me<00:43:11.250> anymore.

00:43:12.277 --> 00:43:15.098
He<00:43:12.373> didn't<00:43:12.597> seem<00:43:12.790> to<00:43:12.902> have<00:43:13.078> any<00:43:13.254> room<00:43:13.495> in<00:43:13.559> his<00:43:13.607> schedule<00:43:14.136> for<00:43:14.296> Brian<00:43:14.681> anymore.

00:43:15.723 --> 00:43:17.791
And<00:43:15.787> it<00:43:15.819> was<00:43:15.980> kind<00:43:16.605> of<00:43:16.765> hard<00:43:17.102> for<00:43:17.246> me,<00:43:17.486> John.

00:43:18.063 --> 00:43:18.224
Yeah.

00:43:25.021 --> 00:43:30.118

00:44:58.045 --> 00:45:10.163

00:46:48.232 --> 00:46:55.109
I<00:46:48.393> catch<00:46:48.713> myself<00:46:49.194> some<00:46:49.451> weeks,<00:46:50.493> I'm<00:46:51.214> really—<00:46:52.496> because<00:46:52.817> we<00:46:52.897> have<00:46:53.057> a<00:46:53.137> great<00:46:53.458> person<00:46:53.843> who<00:46:53.875> manages<00:46:54.340> our<00:46:54.500> calendars.

00:47:00.838 --> 00:47:04.577
Someone<00:47:01.159> else<00:47:01.399> makes<00:47:01.624> sure<00:47:01.945> that<00:47:02.105> I<00:47:02.186> have<00:47:02.442> the<00:47:02.523> gaps<00:47:02.924> in<00:47:03.068> my<00:47:03.165> calendar<00:47:03.887> that<00:47:04.047> I<00:47:04.127> need.

And<00:47:06.775> I<00:47:07.096> protect<00:47:07.561> that<00:47:07.738> really<00:47:07.979> fiercely.

00:47:08.958 --> 00:47:20.351
It's<00:47:09.246> very,<00:47:09.503> very<00:47:09.728> important<00:47:10.225> to<00:47:10.289> me<00:47:10.386> to<00:47:10.530> have<00:47:10.803> that<00:47:11.044> space<00:47:11.509> because<00:47:12.376> in<00:47:12.472> this<00:47:12.713> season<00:47:13.194> it<00:47:13.354> takes<00:47:13.675> longer<00:47:14.301> to<00:47:14.397> process<00:47:15.601> and<00:47:15.665> the<00:47:15.826> world's<00:47:16.243> far<00:47:16.564> noisier<00:47:17.190> than<00:47:17.302> it<00:47:17.511> used<00:47:17.687> to<00:47:17.783> be<00:47:18.570> and<00:47:18.650> there's<00:47:18.891> far<00:47:19.212> greater<00:47:19.532> distractions.

00:47:20.816 --> 00:47:29.558
So<00:47:20.961> if<00:47:21.057> we're<00:47:21.153> going<00:47:21.282> to<00:47:21.378> simplify<00:47:22.100> things,<00:47:23.063> get<00:47:23.159> them<00:47:23.303> down<00:47:23.560> to<00:47:23.704> its<00:47:23.929> least<00:47:24.249> common<00:47:24.586> denominator<00:47:25.372> and<00:47:25.612> easiest<00:47:26.029> point<00:47:26.286> of<00:47:26.655> acquisition,<00:47:27.280> we're<00:47:27.858> going<00:47:27.986> to<00:47:28.018> have<00:47:28.114> to<00:47:28.243> work<00:47:28.499> extra<00:47:28.820> hard<00:47:29.060> to<00:47:29.157> do<00:47:29.301> that.

00:47:29.943 --> 00:47:30.039
Yeah.

00:47:30.985 --> 00:47:35.379
You<00:47:31.161> talk<00:47:31.482> about<00:47:31.963> the<00:47:32.124> integrity<00:47:32.685> gap,<00:47:33.567> which<00:47:34.032> I<00:47:34.128> love<00:47:34.449> that<00:47:34.674> concept.

Basically,<00:47:37.240> you<00:47:37.336> do<00:47:37.480> a<00:47:37.496> better<00:47:37.721> job<00:47:37.801> of<00:47:37.897> describing<00:47:38.282> it<00:47:38.378> than<00:47:38.523> I<00:47:38.619> will,<00:47:38.779> but<00:47:38.875> I'm<00:47:38.940> going<00:47:39.036> to<00:47:39.100> try.

00:47:40.126 --> 00:47:44.504
It's<00:47:40.944> the<00:47:41.089> gap<00:47:41.409> between<00:47:41.810> what<00:47:41.987> we<00:47:42.163> know<00:47:43.109> and<00:47:43.189> what<00:47:43.334> we've<00:47:43.494> actually<00:47:43.895> applied.

00:47:44.793 --> 00:47:50.373
And<00:47:45.595> just<00:47:45.836> that<00:47:45.996> concept<00:47:46.413> right<00:47:46.573> there,<00:47:46.718> if<00:47:46.798> we<00:47:46.846> need<00:47:46.958> to<00:47:47.038> create<00:47:47.279> space<00:47:47.536> in<00:47:47.664> our<00:47:47.760> calendars,<00:47:49.123> I<00:47:49.187> think<00:47:49.299> we<00:47:49.427> can<00:47:49.588> all<00:47:49.684> go,<00:47:49.844> yeah,<00:47:49.924> I<00:47:50.004> know<00:47:50.245> that.

00:47:50.950 --> 00:47:58.963
Um,<00:47:51.351> and<00:47:51.447> then<00:47:51.687> this<00:47:51.928> year<00:47:52.569> in<00:47:52.729> Summit<00:47:53.290> doing<00:47:53.530> the<00:47:53.915> owner's<00:47:54.155> journey,<00:47:55.069> I<00:47:55.117> actually<00:47:55.534> did<00:47:55.790> the<00:47:55.918> best<00:47:56.255> week<00:47:56.816> and<00:47:56.960> actually<00:47:57.217> started<00:47:57.697> blocking<00:47:58.242> out<00:47:58.419> time.

00:47:59.060 --> 00:48:02.954
And<00:47:59.204> it<00:48:00.166> was<00:48:00.230> 100%<00:48:01.047> critical<00:48:01.608> to<00:48:01.704> getting<00:48:02.329> this<00:48:02.505> book<00:48:02.746> done.

00:48:03.211 --> 00:48:09.012
Like,<00:48:03.387> there's<00:48:03.611> no<00:48:03.788> way<00:48:03.948> I<00:48:04.028> would've<00:48:04.188> been<00:48:04.333> able<00:48:04.589> to<00:48:04.813> do,<00:48:05.567> to<00:48:05.855> finish<00:48:06.192> this<00:48:06.432> book<00:48:06.673> if<00:48:06.753> I<00:48:06.817> hadn't<00:48:07.073> created<00:48:07.538> the<00:48:07.618> space<00:48:08.195> to<00:48:08.259> actually<00:48:08.660> do<00:48:08.820> that.

00:48:09.782 --> 00:48:12.619
Um,<00:48:10.759> but,<00:48:10.984> you<00:48:11.016> know,<00:48:11.144> I<00:48:11.320> would,<00:48:11.737> I<00:48:11.849> would<00:48:11.945> be<00:48:12.042> reactionary.

00:48:12.683 --> 00:48:14.221
Oh,<00:48:12.763> there's<00:48:13.067> meetings<00:48:13.564> I<00:48:13.628> gotta<00:48:13.805> take.

00:48:14.285 --> 00:48:16.241
And,<00:48:14.446> you<00:48:14.526> know,<00:48:14.766> well,<00:48:14.991> technically<00:48:15.407> my<00:48:15.568> calendar's<00:48:16.113> open.

00:48:16.289 --> 00:48:17.635
I<00:48:16.369> should<00:48:16.529> just<00:48:16.754> go<00:48:16.786> ahead<00:48:16.914> and<00:48:17.074> accept<00:48:17.507> it.

00:48:18.074 --> 00:48:21.178
Instead<00:48:18.542> of<00:48:18.947> defending<00:48:20.482> that<00:48:20.660> time.

00:48:22.503 --> 00:48:25.154
But<00:48:22.600> can<00:48:22.713> you<00:48:22.762> talk<00:48:23.021> a<00:48:23.069> little<00:48:23.231> bit<00:48:23.344> about<00:48:23.797> the<00:48:23.877> integrity<00:48:24.443> gap<00:48:24.767> in<00:48:24.864> general?

00:48:25.235 --> 00:48:26.432
I<00:48:25.252> mean,<00:48:25.365> it's<00:48:25.672> such<00:48:25.931> a<00:48:25.995> big<00:48:26.238> deal.

00:48:28.440 --> 00:48:34.970
So<00:48:29.106> in<00:48:29.203> an<00:48:29.284> information<00:48:29.999> society,<00:48:30.811> we're<00:48:31.055> all<00:48:31.233> absorbing<00:48:32.127> way<00:48:32.306> more<00:48:32.598> information<00:48:33.264> than<00:48:33.426> we<00:48:33.508> can<00:48:33.751> possibly<00:48:34.563> apply.

00:48:35.657 --> 00:48:38.856
And<00:48:35.917> it's<00:48:36.144> always<00:48:36.404> been<00:48:36.631> true<00:48:36.891> that<00:48:37.037> we've<00:48:37.216> taken<00:48:37.605> in<00:48:37.768> more<00:48:38.011> than<00:48:38.109> we're<00:48:38.336> able<00:48:38.547> to<00:48:38.596> apply.

00:48:39.651 --> 00:48:43.045
But<00:48:39.797> in<00:48:39.878> the<00:48:39.976> information<00:48:40.706> age,<00:48:41.096> the<00:48:41.177> amount<00:48:41.453> of<00:48:41.583> information<00:48:42.087> is<00:48:42.476> just<00:48:42.590> astronomical.

00:48:44.253 --> 00:48:55.972
They<00:48:44.334> say<00:48:44.735> when<00:48:44.896> you<00:48:44.960> used<00:48:45.136> to<00:48:45.281> sit<00:48:45.538> in<00:48:45.682> a<00:48:46.340> boardroom<00:48:47.079> or<00:48:47.287> a<00:48:47.384> room<00:48:47.624> of<00:48:47.849> leaders,<00:48:48.893> the<00:48:48.989> acknowledged<00:48:50.835> leader<00:48:51.220> of<00:48:51.381> that<00:48:51.621> was<00:48:51.718> the<00:48:51.862> person<00:48:52.183> who<00:48:52.296> knew<00:48:52.520> the<00:48:52.617> most,<00:48:53.869> the<00:48:53.965> oldest,<00:48:54.607> the<00:48:54.703> most<00:48:55.008> experienced.

00:48:56.453 --> 00:49:11.237
And<00:48:56.614> now<00:48:57.015> the<00:48:57.175> acknowledged<00:48:57.721> leader<00:48:57.962> in<00:48:58.042> any<00:48:58.363> room<00:48:58.716> is<00:48:58.925> the<00:48:59.005> one<00:48:59.246> who<00:48:59.342> can<00:48:59.487> speak<00:48:59.808> with<00:48:59.888> the<00:48:59.952> most<00:49:00.209> clarity,<00:49:01.253> who<00:49:01.349> can<00:49:01.510> synthesize<00:49:02.457> all<00:49:02.633> the<00:49:02.778> noise<00:49:03.420> and<00:49:03.516> all<00:49:03.677> the<00:49:03.757> information<00:49:05.025> and<00:49:05.185> boil<00:49:05.442> things<00:49:05.844> down<00:49:06.245> to<00:49:06.405> their<00:49:07.272> clearest,<00:49:08.011> best<00:49:08.396> understanding<00:49:09.054> so<00:49:09.199> that<00:49:09.359> you<00:49:09.455> can<00:49:09.680> execute<00:49:10.194> and<00:49:10.322> do<00:49:10.418> something<00:49:10.820> about<00:49:11.141> it.

00:49:11.783 --> 00:49:22.618
Integrity<00:49:12.345> Gap<00:49:12.682> says<00:49:13.051> that<00:49:14.431> it<00:49:14.512> would<00:49:14.592> be<00:49:14.817> better<00:49:15.074> that<00:49:15.218> you<00:49:15.314> just<00:49:15.491> stopped<00:49:16.919> and<00:49:17.064> never,<00:49:17.867> even<00:49:18.043> though<00:49:18.123> we're<00:49:18.284> recording<00:49:18.701> a<00:49:18.765> podcast,<00:49:19.343> never<00:49:19.729> listened<00:49:20.050> to<00:49:20.290> another<00:49:20.595> podcast,<00:49:21.639> read<00:49:21.751> another<00:49:22.217> book.

00:49:23.099 --> 00:49:25.074
Like,<00:49:23.420> pick<00:49:23.661> the<00:49:23.806> horse<00:49:24.207> you<00:49:24.303> want<00:49:24.448> to<00:49:24.544> ride.

00:49:25.427 --> 00:49:27.674
Who<00:49:25.587> are<00:49:25.748> the<00:49:25.989> thought<00:49:26.454> leaders,<00:49:26.936> the<00:49:27.032> 2<00:49:27.273> or<00:49:27.337> 3?

00:49:27.819 --> 00:49:28.172
Yeah.

00:49:28.300 --> 00:49:33.100
What<00:49:28.461> are<00:49:28.493> the<00:49:28.621> channels<00:49:29.360> that<00:49:29.584> you're<00:49:29.681> going<00:49:29.825> to<00:49:30.467> swim<00:49:30.981> in<00:49:31.382> and<00:49:31.607> deeply<00:49:32.008> immerse<00:49:32.393> yourself<00:49:32.955> in?

00:49:33.533 --> 00:49:39.103
But<00:49:33.694> the<00:49:33.774> more<00:49:34.095> things<00:49:34.400> you<00:49:34.496> take<00:49:34.881> on<00:49:34.978> that<00:49:35.122> go<00:49:35.299> unapplied<00:49:36.647> actually<00:49:36.984> increase<00:49:37.626> the<00:49:37.706> size<00:49:38.172> of<00:49:38.204> the<00:49:38.349> integrity<00:49:38.975> gap.

00:49:39.568 --> 00:49:54.719
So<00:49:39.793> every<00:49:40.114> subsequent<00:49:40.836> podcast<00:49:41.719> or<00:49:41.863> every<00:49:42.040> subsequent<00:49:42.826> book,<00:49:43.549> self-help<00:49:44.062> seminar,<00:49:46.277> cool<00:49:46.678> quote<00:49:47.080> that<00:49:47.320> you<00:49:47.417> read<00:49:47.722> on<00:49:47.914> a<00:49:47.978> social<00:49:48.685> media<00:49:49.086> platform<00:49:50.289> is<00:49:50.450> actually<00:49:50.851> increasing<00:49:51.670> your<00:49:51.894> dissatisfaction<00:49:53.435> and<00:49:53.515> your<00:49:53.660> sense<00:49:54.061> of<00:49:54.093> failure.

00:49:55.682 --> 00:50:05.055
So<00:49:55.987> the<00:49:56.388> work<00:49:56.709> really<00:49:57.111> is<00:49:57.271> not<00:49:57.528> to<00:49:57.672> how<00:49:57.849> do<00:49:57.913> I<00:49:58.009> get<00:49:58.170> my<00:49:58.250> arms<00:49:58.667> around<00:49:59.053> more<00:49:59.293> cool,<00:49:59.678> great<00:49:59.951> stuff,<00:50:00.513> it's<00:50:00.962> how<00:50:01.059> do<00:50:01.219> I<00:50:01.235> simplify<00:50:02.022> or<00:50:02.198> synthesize<00:50:03.049> things<00:50:03.306> down<00:50:04.012> to<00:50:04.108> a<00:50:04.124> simple<00:50:04.590> track?

00:50:15.876 --> 00:50:19.659
'Cause<00:50:15.972> we're<00:50:16.052> not<00:50:16.276> looking<00:50:16.597> for<00:50:16.773> a<00:50:16.853> bunch<00:50:17.158> more<00:50:17.270> information,<00:50:17.959> we're<00:50:18.072> looking<00:50:18.344> for<00:50:18.456> a<00:50:18.537> path<00:50:19.098> and<00:50:19.178> a<00:50:19.338> way.

He<00:50:38.641> came<00:50:38.898> to<00:50:38.978> show<00:50:39.299> people<00:50:39.636> a<00:50:39.781> different<00:50:40.166> way<00:50:40.343> to<00:50:40.439> be<00:50:40.583> human,<00:50:41.322> a<00:50:41.450> better<00:50:41.707> way<00:50:41.868> to<00:50:41.948> be<00:50:42.173> human.

00:50:43.216 --> 00:50:44.934
And<00:50:43.377> somehow<00:50:43.875> we've<00:50:44.099> kind<00:50:44.292> of<00:50:44.436> lost<00:50:44.822> that.

00:50:45.705 --> 00:50:45.897
Yeah.

00:50:46.267 --> 00:50:51.276
More<00:50:46.524> is<00:50:46.604> somehow<00:50:47.069> better<00:50:48.113> in<00:50:48.530> a<00:50:48.707> system<00:50:49.253> that<00:50:49.429> says<00:50:49.799> that<00:50:49.975> less<00:50:50.296> is<00:50:50.457> actually<00:50:50.922> way<00:50:51.083> better.

00:50:51.870 --> 00:50:51.982
Yeah.

00:50:52.464 --> 00:50:55.321
Dallas<00:50:52.769> Willard<00:50:53.042> says<00:50:53.331> we're<00:50:53.427> flying<00:50:53.812> upside<00:50:54.149> down<00:50:54.390> and<00:50:54.454> we<00:50:54.551> don't<00:50:54.776> even<00:50:54.952> know<00:50:55.193> it.

00:50:55.594 --> 00:50:55.675
Wow.

00:50:56.317 --> 00:50:56.542
Wow.

00:50:56.959 --> 00:50:57.521
That's<00:50:57.184> great.

00:50:58.163 --> 00:50:58.484
It's—.

00:50:58.886 --> 00:51:09.446
I<00:50:58.902> mean,<00:50:59.110> I<00:50:59.207> feel<00:50:59.399> like<00:50:59.592> right<00:50:59.833> now<00:51:01.037> with<00:51:01.454> everything<00:51:01.759> that's<00:51:01.856> happening<00:51:02.257> with<00:51:02.562> AI,<00:51:03.044> you<00:51:03.076> know,<00:51:04.103> Just<00:51:04.263> to<00:51:04.969> add<00:51:05.066> on<00:51:05.162> to<00:51:05.242> what<00:51:05.387> you<00:51:05.467> were<00:51:05.563> saying,<00:51:06.590> it<00:51:06.670> used<00:51:07.216> to<00:51:07.376> be<00:51:07.697> that<00:51:08.034> knowing<00:51:08.580> things<00:51:08.821> was<00:51:08.933> important.

00:51:09.815 --> 00:51:23.647
Now<00:51:10.104> the<00:51:10.200> value<00:51:10.537> of<00:51:10.682> knowing<00:51:11.083> things<00:51:11.484> is<00:51:12.046> diminishing<00:51:12.768> rapidly<00:51:13.490> because<00:51:14.437> the<00:51:14.597> access<00:51:15.095> to<00:51:15.239> knowledge<00:51:16.763> at<00:51:16.924> scale<00:51:18.448> has<00:51:18.609> just<00:51:19.973> happened<00:51:20.294> at<00:51:20.326> such<00:51:20.566> a<00:51:20.711> rapid<00:51:21.192> pace,<00:51:21.898> and<00:51:21.978> it's<00:51:22.139> only<00:51:22.315> going<00:51:22.428> to<00:51:22.476> continue<00:51:22.861> to<00:51:22.941> get<00:51:23.102> faster.

00:51:24.385 --> 00:51:31.349
So<00:51:26.070> how<00:51:26.231> do<00:51:26.311> you<00:51:26.407> see,<00:51:26.872> when<00:51:26.969> you<00:51:27.113> think<00:51:27.274> about<00:51:27.514> AI<00:51:27.771> right<00:51:28.028> now<00:51:28.734> and<00:51:28.798> how<00:51:28.910> it's<00:51:29.055> affecting<00:51:29.616> people<00:51:30.017> and<00:51:30.098> how<00:51:30.194> it's<00:51:30.354> affecting<00:51:30.820> leaders,<00:51:31.125> Mm-hmm.

00:51:32.049 --> 00:51:33.244
And<00:51:32.146> how<00:51:32.291> it's<00:51:32.404> going<00:51:32.630> to<00:51:32.775> affect<00:51:33.179> us.

00:51:34.325 --> 00:51:35.406
What<00:51:34.470> are<00:51:34.551> your<00:51:34.712> thoughts<00:51:35.035> on<00:51:35.132> that?

00:51:35.842 --> 00:51:43.722
Not<00:51:36.036> so<00:51:36.197> much<00:51:36.407> from<00:51:36.520> the<00:51:36.585> perspective<00:51:37.085> of<00:51:37.214> here's<00:51:37.375> how<00:51:37.456> it's<00:51:37.553> gonna<00:51:37.714> reshape<00:51:38.102> society,<00:51:38.602> but<00:51:38.828> more<00:51:39.554> how<00:51:39.651> does<00:51:39.813> it<00:51:39.893> affect<00:51:40.684> us<00:51:40.863> personally<00:51:41.276> and<00:51:41.358> how<00:51:41.524> do<00:51:41.689> we<00:51:41.854> navigate<00:51:42.581> life<00:51:42.928> in<00:51:43.094> light<00:51:43.490> of?

00:51:45.530 --> 00:51:56.926
One<00:51:45.659> of<00:51:45.804> the<00:51:45.884> things<00:51:46.142> that<00:51:46.288> most<00:51:46.772> people<00:51:46.997> are<00:51:47.030> most<00:51:47.401> critical<00:51:47.836> about<00:51:48.127> with<00:51:48.223> me<00:51:49.336> is<00:51:49.740> I<00:51:49.901> haven't<00:51:50.643> in<00:51:50.885> any<00:51:51.127> material<00:51:51.595> way<00:51:51.934> or<00:51:52.417> any<00:51:52.643> way,<00:51:52.885> period,<00:51:54.111> read<00:51:54.369> or<00:51:54.514> listened<00:51:54.918> to<00:51:54.998> the<00:51:55.095> news<00:51:55.370> in<00:51:55.468> the<00:51:55.566> last<00:51:55.894> 15<00:51:56.238> or<00:51:56.303> 16<00:51:56.795> years.

00:51:57.950 --> 00:52:03.200
So<00:51:58.640> I<00:51:58.720> actually<00:51:59.042> didn't<00:51:59.282> know<00:51:59.459> that<00:51:59.700> because<00:51:59.941> I'm<00:52:00.567> like<00:52:01.289> almost<00:52:01.546> 6<00:52:01.787> years<00:52:02.108> into<00:52:02.509> no<00:52:02.766> news.

00:52:03.970 --> 00:52:04.532
I<00:52:04.002> had<00:52:04.131> no<00:52:04.275> idea.

00:52:04.596 --> 00:52:05.672
Why<00:52:04.628> didn't<00:52:04.757> we<00:52:04.853> talk<00:52:05.062> about<00:52:05.238> this<00:52:05.351> before?

00:52:05.945 --> 00:52:12.029
I<00:52:05.961> was<00:52:06.202> having<00:52:06.860> margaritas<00:52:07.791> and<00:52:07.887> Coronas<00:52:08.513> with<00:52:08.610> my<00:52:08.851> buddies<00:52:09.252> one<00:52:09.477> night<00:52:10.039> in<00:52:10.215> February<00:52:10.938> of<00:52:11.034> 2020.

00:52:12.302 --> 00:52:12.607
Yeah.

00:52:12.848 --> 00:52:15.304
And<00:52:13.025> one<00:52:13.265> of<00:52:13.346> them<00:52:13.667> said<00:52:13.908> something<00:52:14.245> about<00:52:14.469> the<00:52:14.614> coronavirus.

00:52:16.139 --> 00:52:19.864
And<00:52:16.235> I<00:52:16.316> said,<00:52:17.423> Mexican<00:52:17.905> beer<00:52:18.146> disease,<00:52:18.804> coronavirus.

00:52:19.928 --> 00:52:23.187
And<00:52:20.008> they're<00:52:20.120> like,<00:52:20.747> no,<00:52:20.971> Schroller,<00:52:22.079> the<00:52:22.175> coronavirus.

00:52:23.701 --> 00:52:26.735
And<00:52:23.781> they<00:52:23.861> started<00:52:24.246> telling<00:52:24.503> me<00:52:24.600> all<00:52:24.744> about<00:52:25.226> it<00:52:25.290> and<00:52:25.370> hadn't<00:52:25.691> really<00:52:25.932> hit<00:52:26.028> our<00:52:26.189> shores<00:52:26.654> yet.

00:52:27.395 --> 00:52:29.397
Once<00:52:27.637> it<00:52:27.718> hit<00:52:27.831> our<00:52:27.960> shores,<00:52:28.364> you<00:52:28.525> couldn't<00:52:28.832> avoid<00:52:29.235> it.

00:52:29.639 --> 00:52:29.913
Yeah.

00:52:30.220 --> 00:52:34.529
But<00:52:30.526> what<00:52:30.623> I<00:52:30.704> found<00:52:31.091> was<00:52:31.333> I<00:52:31.349> didn't<00:52:31.511> spend<00:52:31.817> the<00:52:31.898> 6<00:52:32.221> months<00:52:32.479> prior<00:52:33.028> worrying<00:52:33.367> about<00:52:33.754> it<00:52:34.012> that<00:52:34.174> they<00:52:34.335> did.

00:52:34.900 --> 00:52:35.077
Yeah.

00:52:35.368 --> 00:52:37.689
When<00:52:35.481> it<00:52:35.546> became<00:52:36.030> a<00:52:36.240> reality,<00:52:36.658> it<00:52:36.739> became<00:52:37.093> a<00:52:37.157> reality.

00:52:38.301 --> 00:52:41.778
It<00:52:38.445> didn't<00:52:38.751> serve<00:52:39.234> me<00:52:39.412> to<00:52:39.508> know<00:52:39.814> about<00:52:40.201> it<00:52:40.378> until<00:52:40.700> I<00:52:40.845> had<00:52:41.038> to<00:52:41.118> know<00:52:41.344> about<00:52:41.730> it.

00:52:42.471 --> 00:52:50.532
And<00:52:42.535> so<00:52:42.793> for<00:52:45.128> at<00:52:45.192> least<00:52:45.450> 15<00:52:45.772> years,<00:52:46.096> probably<00:52:46.420> 16<00:52:46.986> years<00:52:47.456> before<00:52:47.715> I—<00:52:47.877> just<00:52:48.039> before<00:52:48.282> I<00:52:48.346> left<00:52:48.606> banking,<00:52:49.496> I<00:52:49.577> turned<00:52:49.820> the<00:52:49.901> news<00:52:50.306> off.

00:52:51.196 --> 00:52:54.079
So<00:52:51.293> I'm<00:52:51.504> not<00:52:51.682> paying<00:52:52.395> any<00:52:52.637> attention<00:52:53.204> to<00:52:53.301> any<00:52:53.479> of<00:52:53.609> those<00:52:53.868> things.

00:52:54.753 --> 00:53:04.981
And<00:52:54.834> so<00:52:55.155> when<00:52:55.300> I<00:52:55.396> hear<00:52:55.621> about<00:52:55.878> AI,<00:52:57.260> I'm<00:52:57.469> typically<00:52:57.983> not<00:52:58.433> reading<00:52:59.718> the<00:52:59.814> terrifying<00:53:01.662> reports<00:53:02.369> that<00:53:02.546> say<00:53:02.787> it's<00:53:03.012> the<00:53:03.189> end<00:53:03.349> of<00:53:03.414> the<00:53:03.590> world<00:53:03.912> or<00:53:03.993> it's<00:53:04.155> the<00:53:04.300> hope<00:53:04.495> of<00:53:04.560> the<00:53:04.705> world.

00:53:05.385 --> 00:53:07.247
I'm<00:53:05.596> not<00:53:05.774> looking<00:53:06.098> at<00:53:06.179> either<00:53:06.422> one<00:53:06.583> of<00:53:06.664> those<00:53:06.907> things.

00:53:07.717 --> 00:53:09.854
I'm<00:53:07.879> looking<00:53:08.267> at<00:53:08.591> access<00:53:09.012> to<00:53:09.093> information.

00:53:09.903 --> 00:53:11.328
And<00:53:10.048> I<00:53:10.146> guess<00:53:10.453> I<00:53:10.550> would<00:53:10.696> say<00:53:10.939> 2<00:53:11.198> things.

00:53:12.320 --> 00:53:20.399

00:53:36.738 --> 00:53:44.019
And<00:53:36.834> I<00:53:36.898> think<00:53:37.075> it<00:53:37.219> continues<00:53:37.877> to<00:53:38.005> increase<00:53:38.422> in<00:53:38.502> value,<00:53:39.384> 'cause<00:53:39.528> that's<00:53:39.769> something<00:53:40.090> that,<00:53:40.827> based<00:53:41.132> on<00:53:41.164> my<00:53:41.309> limited<00:53:41.629> understanding,<00:53:42.255> AI<00:53:42.575> will<00:53:42.688> never<00:53:43.057> be<00:53:43.153> able<00:53:43.345> to<00:53:43.457> replicate.

00:53:49.713 --> 00:53:51.878
I<00:53:49.825> don't<00:53:50.435> think<00:53:50.755> AI<00:53:51.012> can<00:53:51.237> accomplish<00:53:51.654> that.

00:53:52.376 --> 00:53:52.632
Yeah.

00:53:53.258 --> 00:54:06.541
I<00:53:53.338> keep<00:53:53.643> thinking<00:53:53.900> about<00:53:54.140> the<00:53:54.220> difference<00:53:54.573> between<00:53:55.488> knowing<00:53:56.049> things<00:53:57.012> and<00:53:57.734> transformation,<00:53:59.514> because<00:54:00.220> ultimately<00:54:00.878> what<00:54:01.038> we<00:54:01.263> all<00:54:01.439> need<00:54:02.065> always<00:54:02.546> is<00:54:02.787> to<00:54:02.947> be<00:54:03.124> transformed,<00:54:04.648> which<00:54:05.113> is<00:54:05.915> real<00:54:06.252> growth.

00:54:06.589 --> 00:54:07.182
It's<00:54:06.733> deep<00:54:07.038> growth.

00:54:07.230 --> 00:54:08.498
It's<00:54:07.375> heart<00:54:07.936> change.

00:54:09.300 --> 00:54:10.968
It's<00:54:09.781> paradigm<00:54:10.423> shift.

00:54:12.107 --> 00:54:28.435
And<00:54:12.749> I<00:54:12.829> think<00:54:13.214> that<00:54:13.455> the<00:54:14.177> when<00:54:14.338> I<00:54:14.354> look<00:54:14.530> at<00:54:14.659> AI,<00:54:15.622> it<00:54:15.943> gives<00:54:16.200> us<00:54:16.296> so<00:54:16.666> much<00:54:16.923> information<00:54:17.790> that<00:54:17.886> it<00:54:17.966> can<00:54:18.127> make<00:54:18.384> us<00:54:18.689> feel<00:54:18.930> like<00:54:20.375> we<00:54:20.535> are<00:54:20.760> growing<00:54:21.804> and<00:54:22.125> changing,<00:54:23.827> but<00:54:24.710> perhaps<00:54:25.256> we're<00:54:25.818> actually<00:54:26.155> just<00:54:27.119> going<00:54:27.343> down<00:54:27.600> a<00:54:27.665> whole<00:54:27.777> new<00:54:27.986> rabbit<00:54:28.307> hole.

00:54:29.431 --> 00:54:38.936

00:54:38.936 --> 00:54:39.225
Mm-hmm.

00:54:39.723 --> 00:54:43.304
Pulled<00:54:39.948> us<00:54:40.108> away<00:54:40.381> from<00:54:40.992> the<00:54:41.152> most<00:54:41.345> important<00:54:41.875> thing<00:54:42.051> that<00:54:42.115> we<00:54:42.148> need<00:54:42.356> to<00:54:42.437> be<00:54:42.469> focusing<00:54:43.079> on.

00:54:43.416 --> 00:54:44.813
It's<00:54:44.363> weird,<00:54:44.540> Jon.

00:54:44.861 --> 00:54:46.531
I<00:54:44.877> mean,<00:54:45.263> look<00:54:45.423> at<00:54:45.503> the<00:54:45.632> knowledge<00:54:45.985> of<00:54:46.065> your<00:54:46.210> own<00:54:46.387> life.

00:54:51.749 --> 00:54:52.825
It's<00:54:51.926> being<00:54:52.231> curious.

00:54:53.146 --> 00:54:56.920
It's<00:54:53.451> the<00:54:53.596> processing<00:54:54.399> of<00:54:54.495> your<00:54:54.656> life<00:54:55.459> where<00:54:55.603> you<00:54:55.699> find<00:54:56.245> all<00:54:56.358> the<00:54:56.502> gold.

But<00:56:21.075> now<00:56:21.252> we've<00:56:21.412> got<00:56:21.621> this<00:56:21.781> whole<00:56:22.182> other<00:56:22.359> one,<00:56:22.599> which<00:56:22.776> is<00:56:22.984> like<00:56:23.241> we<00:56:23.962> that<00:56:24.219> seems<00:56:24.604> kind<00:56:24.780> of<00:56:24.908> harmless<00:56:25.405> at<00:56:25.549> first,<00:56:25.870> but<00:56:25.982> it's<00:56:26.127> really<00:56:26.447> just<00:56:27.265> a<00:56:27.329> great<00:56:27.633> way<00:56:27.810> for<00:56:28.050> us<00:56:28.291> to,<00:56:29.798> um,<00:56:31.016> bury<00:56:31.256> our<00:56:31.401> heads<00:56:31.657> in<00:56:31.753> the<00:56:31.833> sand<00:56:32.779> of<00:56:32.939> more<00:56:33.084> information<00:56:34.206> and<00:56:34.302> not<00:56:34.543> focus.

00:56:34.927 --> 00:56:44.562
Like,<00:56:35.088> I<00:56:35.168> guess<00:56:35.408> what<00:56:35.472> I'm<00:56:35.568> saying<00:56:35.841> is<00:56:36.322> I<00:56:36.386> feel<00:56:36.626> like<00:56:37.091> AI<00:56:37.508> is<00:56:37.668> going<00:56:38.390> to<00:56:40.073> bring<00:56:40.538> to<00:56:40.730> our<00:56:40.955> awareness<00:56:41.580> on<00:56:41.660> a<00:56:41.756> whole<00:56:42.013> new<00:56:42.173> level<00:56:43.023> the<00:56:43.119> concept<00:56:43.616> of<00:56:43.696> the<00:56:43.840> integrity<00:56:44.321> gap.

00:56:44.706 --> 00:56:44.978
Hmm.

00:56:45.203 --> 00:56:47.944
It<00:56:45.283> doesn't<00:56:45.539> matter<00:56:45.924> what<00:56:46.165> you<00:56:46.261> know<00:56:46.950> or<00:56:46.982> what<00:56:47.126> you<00:56:47.207> have<00:56:47.367> access<00:56:47.768> to.

00:56:48.008 --> 00:56:49.707
It<00:56:48.168> matters<00:56:48.633> how<00:56:48.826> it's<00:56:48.970> applied<00:56:49.355> in<00:56:49.435> your<00:56:49.531> life.

00:56:50.627 --> 00:56:52.776
And<00:56:50.708> how<00:56:51.015> you've<00:56:51.258> changed<00:56:51.661> as<00:56:51.775> a<00:56:51.839> person<00:56:52.324> and<00:56:52.486> grown.

00:56:54.748 --> 00:56:55.152
Agree.

00:56:56.024 --> 00:57:00.111
Um,<00:56:56.347> you<00:56:56.380> were<00:56:56.509> talking<00:56:56.848> about<00:56:57.317> best<00:56:57.640> week<00:56:57.979> and<00:56:58.125> protecting<00:56:58.690> white<00:56:58.933> space<00:56:59.272> in<00:56:59.369> your<00:56:59.514> calendar.

00:57:01.353 --> 00:57:22.473
Interestingly<00:57:01.838> enough,<00:57:02.225> when<00:57:02.273> we<00:57:02.386> used<00:57:02.483> to<00:57:02.580> talk<00:57:02.822> to<00:57:02.967> leaders,<00:57:03.371> we<00:57:03.467> talked<00:57:03.726> about<00:57:03.951> all<00:57:04.097> these<00:57:04.274> concepts,<00:57:05.484> and<00:57:05.662> now<00:57:05.807> we<00:57:05.888> start<00:57:06.372> the<00:57:06.517> year<00:57:06.937> with<00:57:08.050> becoming<00:57:08.389> more<00:57:08.615> of<00:57:08.680> an<00:57:08.760> essentialist<00:57:09.516> about<00:57:09.742> what<00:57:09.919> you're<00:57:10.080> committed<00:57:10.482> to<00:57:10.804> and<00:57:10.965> white<00:57:11.271> space<00:57:11.770> and<00:57:11.995> this<00:57:12.236> idea<00:57:12.558> of<00:57:12.655> a<00:57:12.735> best<00:57:13.121> week<00:57:13.459> and<00:57:14.023> protecting<00:57:14.586> your<00:57:14.747> time<00:57:15.326> and<00:57:16.152> weeding<00:57:16.634> things<00:57:17.099> out<00:57:17.340> that<00:57:17.452> are<00:57:17.580> unimportant,<00:57:18.318> because<00:57:19.200> that's<00:57:19.505> the<00:57:19.586> calamity<00:57:20.243> of,<00:57:20.323> I<00:57:20.468> think,<00:57:20.725> all<00:57:20.965> leaders<00:57:21.446> is<00:57:21.543> just<00:57:21.912> overwhelm.

00:57:22.569 --> 00:57:22.890
Yeah.

00:57:22.970 --> 00:57:24.751
And<00:57:23.051> there's<00:57:23.195> a<00:57:23.275> lot<00:57:23.436> of<00:57:23.468> things<00:57:23.757> we<00:57:23.837> can<00:57:23.949> do<00:57:24.093> to<00:57:24.158> address<00:57:24.575> that.

00:57:25.297 --> 00:57:27.992
Protecting<00:57:25.842> that<00:57:26.019> white<00:57:26.323> space<00:57:26.740> is<00:57:26.981> really<00:57:27.302> challenging.

00:57:28.505 --> 00:57:29.965
I<00:57:28.569> think<00:57:28.746> I<00:57:28.826> might<00:57:28.954> have<00:57:29.067> told<00:57:29.371> you<00:57:29.452> a<00:57:29.468> story.

00:57:30.029 --> 00:57:32.050
There's<00:57:30.270> a<00:57:30.350> gentleman<00:57:30.751> I<00:57:30.831> met<00:57:31.056> with<00:57:31.168> a<00:57:31.232> couple<00:57:31.473> of<00:57:31.537> times.

00:57:32.099 --> 00:57:38.580
He's<00:57:32.259> a<00:57:32.275> very<00:57:32.452> nice<00:57:32.756> guy,<00:57:33.783> but<00:57:33.879> the<00:57:33.960> conversations<00:57:34.858> didn't<00:57:35.163> seem<00:57:35.403> like<00:57:35.628> they<00:57:35.788> had<00:57:36.045> any<00:57:36.446> throughput<00:57:37.088> or<00:57:37.312> any<00:57:38.115> direction.

00:57:39.109 --> 00:57:40.184
I<00:57:39.173> didn't<00:57:39.334> feel<00:57:39.558> called<00:57:39.895> to<00:57:40.056> them.

00:57:41.163 --> 00:57:45.911
And<00:57:41.259> so<00:57:41.403> he<00:57:41.564> reached<00:57:41.804> back<00:57:42.125> out<00:57:42.302> to<00:57:42.526> meet<00:57:42.719> again,<00:57:43.248> and<00:57:43.344> I<00:57:43.505> gave<00:57:43.761> him<00:57:43.970> a<00:57:44.146> low<00:57:44.371> integrity<00:57:45.430> maybe.

00:57:46.713 --> 00:57:54.246
And<00:57:46.793> my<00:57:46.953> low<00:57:47.113> integrity<00:57:47.674> maybe<00:57:48.075> was,<00:57:48.476> maybe<00:57:48.796> when<00:57:48.940> it<00:57:49.037> slows<00:57:49.421> down<00:57:49.614> in<00:57:49.758> a<00:57:49.822> few<00:57:50.014> months,<00:57:50.399> we'll<00:57:50.559> get<00:57:50.720> back<00:57:50.944> together,<00:57:52.002> and<00:57:52.082> just<00:57:52.707> very<00:57:53.108> low<00:57:53.268> integrity.

00:57:54.710 --> 00:58:01.538
And<00:57:54.823> so<00:57:55.031> I<00:57:55.127> ran<00:57:55.432> into<00:57:55.752> him<00:57:55.928> one<00:57:56.153> time<00:57:56.473> at<00:57:56.570> a<00:57:56.650> gathering<00:57:57.130> of<00:57:57.275> people,<00:57:57.772> and<00:57:57.836> he<00:57:57.996> came<00:57:58.236> up<00:57:58.349> to<00:57:58.493> me<00:57:58.717> excitedly<00:57:59.358> and<00:57:59.454> said,<00:57:59.679> hey,<00:57:59.855> I'd<00:58:00.015> love<00:58:00.256> to<00:58:00.576> get<00:58:00.673> some<00:58:00.897> time<00:58:01.201> together.

00:58:02.804 --> 00:58:09.664
And<00:58:03.125> he<00:58:03.221> said,<00:58:03.686> I<00:58:03.718> know<00:58:04.006> you're<00:58:04.086> super<00:58:04.487> busy,<00:58:05.144> and<00:58:05.288> I<00:58:05.320> know<00:58:05.529> you<00:58:05.625> probably<00:58:05.865> don't<00:58:06.026> have<00:58:06.202> any<00:58:06.410> white<00:58:06.651> space<00:58:06.987> in<00:58:07.067> your<00:58:07.228> calendar,<00:58:08.350> but<00:58:08.494> I'd<00:58:08.654> love<00:58:08.895> some<00:58:09.151> time.

00:58:15.097 --> 00:58:15.225
Oh,<00:58:15.145> no.

00:58:16.043 --> 00:58:32.837
And<00:58:16.187> I<00:58:16.283> said,<00:58:16.748> unfortunately,<00:58:17.405> I<00:58:17.549> am<00:58:17.709> really<00:58:18.030> clear<00:58:18.511> about<00:58:18.847> my<00:58:19.007> assignments<00:58:19.953> and<00:58:20.001> I<00:58:20.033> am<00:58:20.273> really<00:58:20.530> clear<00:58:20.850> about<00:58:21.091> the<00:58:21.235> things<00:58:21.507> I<00:58:21.571> am<00:58:21.732> committed<00:58:22.196> to,<00:58:23.094> and<00:58:23.174> the<00:58:23.318> white<00:58:23.510> space<00:58:23.959> I<00:58:24.039> have<00:58:24.360> is<00:58:24.536> dedicated<00:58:25.177> to<00:58:25.257> keep<00:58:25.578> my<00:58:25.738> mind<00:58:26.219> clear<00:58:26.635> and<00:58:26.763> to<00:58:26.844> prepare<00:58:27.276> me<00:58:28.061> for<00:58:28.222> that<00:58:28.927> narrower,<00:58:29.968> deeper<00:58:30.930> expression<00:58:31.523> of<00:58:31.571> my<00:58:31.811> life<00:58:32.084> in<00:58:32.228> this<00:58:32.324> season.

And<01:01:19.804> some<01:01:20.109> of<01:01:20.270> the<01:01:20.366> work<01:01:20.672> to<01:01:20.768> discovering<01:01:21.314> that,<01:01:21.491> Jon,<01:01:21.796> is<01:01:21.876> just<01:01:22.053> clearing<01:01:22.519> out<01:01:22.679> all<01:01:22.760> the<01:01:22.856> clutter<01:01:23.884> of<01:01:24.205> just<01:01:25.506> the<01:01:25.667> collateral<01:01:26.293> damage,<01:01:26.775> the<01:01:26.952> cartilage<01:01:28.382> of<01:01:28.639> bad<01:01:28.960> things<01:01:29.281> that<01:01:29.410> have<01:01:29.506> happened<01:01:29.940> and<01:01:30.068> the<01:01:30.229> lies<01:01:30.630> that<01:01:30.727> they've<01:01:30.903> imprinted<01:01:31.369> upon<01:01:31.610> us.

01:01:31.755 --> 01:01:31.819
Yeah.

01:01:32.333 --> 01:01:43.101
And<01:01:32.413> as<01:01:32.557> you<01:01:32.654> start<01:01:33.055> to<01:01:33.199> reject<01:01:33.697> those,<01:01:34.018> as<01:01:34.098> you<01:01:34.194> start<01:01:34.483> to<01:01:34.579> clean<01:01:34.964> house<01:01:35.943> on<01:01:36.104> false<01:01:36.489> identity<01:01:37.468> and<01:01:37.612> false<01:01:37.965> names<01:01:38.655> and<01:01:38.752> whatever<01:01:39.153> the<01:01:39.233> term<01:01:39.618> you<01:01:39.698> want<01:01:39.795> to<01:01:39.939> give<01:01:40.116> to<01:01:40.212> that,<01:01:41.063> all<01:01:41.095> of<01:01:41.159> a<01:01:41.223> sudden<01:01:41.704> something<01:01:42.106> else<01:01:42.218> starts<01:01:42.443> to<01:01:42.587> emerge.

01:01:43.726 --> 01:01:58.779
And<01:01:43.791> when<01:01:43.887> that<01:01:44.112> starts<01:01:44.384> to<01:01:44.609> become<01:01:45.010> clear,<01:01:46.150> it's<01:01:46.358> the<01:01:46.599> only<01:01:46.856> thing<01:01:47.161> that<01:01:47.305> will<01:01:47.417> allow<01:01:47.819> you<01:01:47.979> not<01:01:48.300> to<01:01:49.006> have<01:01:49.247> it<01:01:49.728> diminished<01:01:50.226> by<01:01:50.450> other<01:01:50.627> people<01:01:51.574> is<01:01:51.670> when<01:01:51.766> you're—<01:01:51.975> when<01:01:52.071> you<01:01:52.216> grab<01:01:52.472> hold<01:01:52.777> of<01:01:52.809> that<01:01:53.034> and<01:01:53.114> you're<01:01:53.275> confident<01:01:53.772> about<01:01:54.077> that,<01:01:54.880> it<01:01:54.944> just<01:01:55.185> gets<01:01:55.345> stronger<01:01:56.163> and<01:01:56.308> clearer<01:01:56.805> and<01:01:56.950> kind<01:01:57.142> of<01:01:57.207> becomes<01:01:57.688> an<01:01:57.832> operating<01:01:58.394> system.

01:01:59.292 --> 01:02:02.227
But<01:01:59.437> that's<01:01:59.709> not<01:01:59.998> the<01:02:00.094> way<01:02:00.880> most<01:02:01.120> of<01:02:01.217> us<01:02:01.297> have<01:02:01.393> been<01:02:01.537> taught<01:02:01.778> to<01:02:01.874> live.

01:02:03.301 --> 01:02:08.160
We're<01:02:04.263> looking<01:02:04.664> to<01:02:05.065> thought<01:02:05.466> leaders<01:02:05.851> like<01:02:06.091> Kim<01:02:06.268> Kardashian<01:02:07.054> who<01:02:07.214> has<01:02:07.326> a<01:02:07.471> billion<01:02:07.871> followers.

01:02:08.930 --> 01:02:17.380
I'm<01:02:09.074> sure<01:02:09.299> Kim's<01:02:09.491> a<01:02:09.555> nice<01:02:09.876> person,<01:02:10.742> but<01:02:10.806> not<01:02:11.014> the<01:02:11.143> person<01:02:11.544> I<01:02:11.640> want<01:02:11.816> to<01:02:12.602> be<01:02:13.163> determining<01:02:13.708> what<01:02:13.869> my<01:02:14.045> life's<01:02:14.446> going<01:02:14.606> to<01:02:14.767> be<01:02:14.991> about<01:02:15.552> and<01:02:15.713> what<01:02:15.761> I'm<01:02:15.889> going<01:02:16.065> to<01:02:16.210> believe<01:02:16.514> in<01:02:16.595> or<01:02:16.627> not<01:02:16.931> believe<01:02:17.252> in.

01:02:17.493 --> 01:02:25.831
So<01:02:17.733> we're<01:02:18.455> giving<01:02:18.792> our<01:02:19.000> question<01:02:20.203> to<01:02:20.363> what<01:02:20.523> is<01:02:20.604> our<01:02:20.844> value<01:02:21.261> or<01:02:21.501> purpose<01:02:22.383> to<01:02:22.608> all<01:02:22.768> kinds<01:02:23.121> of<01:02:23.249> places,<01:02:23.811> and<01:02:23.907> we're<01:02:24.019> not<01:02:24.228> sourcing<01:02:24.773> it<01:02:24.933> to<01:02:25.109> any<01:02:25.270> kind<01:02:25.494> of<01:02:25.591> real<01:02:25.751> truth.

01:02:25.895 --> 01:02:25.959
Yeah.

01:02:26.154 --> 01:02:27.264
That<01:02:26.546> is<01:02:26.725> so<01:02:26.970> good.

01:02:27.606 --> 01:02:28.325
That<01:02:27.868> is<01:02:28.015> heavy.

01:02:30.059 --> 01:02:32.293
Where<01:02:30.156> are<01:02:30.237> you<01:02:30.334> sourcing<01:02:31.370> your<01:02:31.548> question<01:02:32.115> to?

01:02:33.233 --> 01:02:38.804
There's<01:02:33.476> a<01:02:33.799> phrase<01:02:34.140> I've<01:02:34.221> been<01:02:34.383> saying<01:02:35.581> that<01:02:35.694> the<01:02:35.840> questions<01:02:36.731> you<01:02:36.957> ask<01:02:37.395> determine<01:02:37.783> the<01:02:37.929> journey<01:02:38.188> you<01:02:38.334> go<01:02:38.577> on.

01:02:39.840 --> 01:02:49.390
I<01:02:39.952> love<01:02:40.259> that<01:02:41.243> not<01:02:41.469> only<01:02:41.646> is<01:02:41.743> it<01:02:41.872> important<01:02:42.275> what<01:02:42.453> question<01:02:42.937> we're<01:02:43.098> asking,<01:02:43.921> it's<01:02:44.389> probably<01:02:44.695> even<01:02:44.953> more<01:02:45.050> important<01:02:46.486> where<01:02:46.712> we're<01:02:46.873> asking<01:02:47.212> that<01:02:47.438> question,<01:02:47.922> who<01:02:48.164> we're<01:02:48.261> asking<01:02:48.486> that<01:02:48.664> question<01:02:49.067> to.

01:02:49.600 --> 01:02:54.250
George<01:02:49.859> MacDonald<01:02:50.426> says<01:02:50.993> your<01:02:51.236> life<01:02:51.512> is<01:02:51.738> completely<01:02:52.386> shaped<01:02:52.873> by<01:02:52.954> the<01:02:53.116> questions<01:02:53.731> that<01:02:53.910> you're<01:02:54.007> asking.

01:02:54.768 --> 01:02:55.569
I<01:02:55.136> didn't<01:02:55.313> know<01:02:55.457> that.

01:02:55.633 --> 01:02:56.210
I<01:02:55.777> love<01:02:56.098> it.

01:02:56.498 --> 01:02:57.652
That's<01:02:56.675> so<01:02:56.915> incredibly<01:02:57.476> true.

01:02:57.716 --> 01:03:02.987
But<01:02:57.860> you're<01:02:58.036> also<01:02:58.437> right<01:02:58.822> that<01:02:58.982> the<01:02:59.062> person<01:02:59.462> you're<01:02:59.703> asking<01:03:00.103> the<01:03:00.199> question<01:03:01.465> to<01:03:01.561> is<01:03:01.882> very,<01:03:02.202> very<01:03:02.523> important.

01:03:03.147 --> 01:03:07.057
Who—<01:03:03.965> and<01:03:04.509> I<01:03:04.686> work<01:03:04.846> with<01:03:05.086> a<01:03:05.102> lot<01:03:05.262> of<01:03:05.327> people<01:03:05.631> that<01:03:05.727> aren't<01:03:06.048> in<01:03:06.208> my<01:03:06.368> faith<01:03:06.608> system.

01:03:07.874 --> 01:03:15.308
And<01:03:08.050> when<01:03:08.210> I<01:03:08.451> speak<01:03:08.851> to<01:03:08.996> people<01:03:09.268> that<01:03:09.412> aren't<01:03:09.797> in<01:03:09.893> my<01:03:11.239> tent,<01:03:12.761> I<01:03:12.857> tend<01:03:13.161> to<01:03:13.322> use<01:03:13.562> language<01:03:13.962> that's<01:03:14.219> more<01:03:14.459> familiar<01:03:14.940> to<01:03:15.020> them.

01:03:15.981 --> 01:03:23.079
And<01:03:16.125> I've<01:03:16.222> said<01:03:16.446> it<01:03:16.542> several<01:03:16.927> times<01:03:17.263> with<01:03:17.407> people<01:03:17.744> who<01:03:17.904> aren't<01:03:18.208> faithy<01:03:18.609> people,<01:03:19.490> who<01:03:19.586> are<01:03:19.827> really<01:03:20.291> beaten<01:03:20.772> up<01:03:21.108> by<01:03:21.269> things<01:03:21.733> they're<01:03:21.909> believing<01:03:22.310> about<01:03:22.630> themselves.

01:03:25.342 --> 01:03:27.734
And<01:03:25.422> they'll<01:03:25.663> ask<01:03:25.840> me<01:03:25.920> a<01:03:26.000> similar<01:03:26.402> question,<01:03:26.883> like,<01:03:27.060> how<01:03:27.205> do<01:03:27.349> you<01:03:27.381> know?

01:03:27.847 --> 01:03:29.115
And<01:03:27.911> how<01:03:27.991> are<01:03:28.152> you<01:03:28.248> so<01:03:28.489> confident?

01:03:29.757 --> 01:03:32.567
And<01:03:29.805> I'll<01:03:30.014> say,<01:03:30.255> I<01:03:30.335> don't<01:03:30.560> give<01:03:30.721> anyone<01:03:31.058> the<01:03:31.138> right<01:03:31.443> to<01:03:31.523> make<01:03:31.764> me<01:03:31.844> feel<01:03:32.053> like<01:03:32.262> shit.

01:03:33.065 --> 01:03:33.964
I<01:03:33.129> just<01:03:33.289> won't<01:03:33.466> do<01:03:33.707> it.

01:03:34.172 --> 01:03:36.484
I<01:03:34.205> won't<01:03:34.590> take<01:03:34.911> that<01:03:35.216> most<01:03:35.473> precious<01:03:35.938> question.

01:03:37.014 --> 01:03:38.363
I<01:03:37.078> take<01:03:37.383> it<01:03:37.480> to<01:03:37.576> my<01:03:37.785> Creator.

01:03:38.668 --> 01:03:38.812
Hmm.

01:03:39.005 --> 01:03:44.480
I<01:03:39.085> take<01:03:39.390> it<01:03:39.487> to<01:03:39.872> people<01:03:40.209> that<01:03:40.354> I<01:03:40.466> know<01:03:41.413> love<01:03:41.670> me<01:03:41.831> for<01:03:42.055> who<01:03:42.280> I<01:03:42.457> am,<01:03:42.698> not<01:03:43.099> because<01:03:43.420> of<01:03:43.500> what<01:03:43.645> I<01:03:43.741> can<01:03:43.902> do<01:03:44.062> for<01:03:44.239> them.

01:03:45.090 --> 01:03:49.569

01:03:50.083 --> 01:03:55.874
And<01:03:50.179> the<01:03:50.243> more<01:03:50.468> I<01:03:50.564> ask<01:03:50.885> that<01:03:51.061> of<01:03:51.189> the<01:03:51.270> right<01:03:51.526> people<01:03:51.927> and<01:03:52.008> source<01:03:52.409> it<01:03:52.489> to<01:03:52.585> the<01:03:52.729> right<01:03:53.451> thing<01:03:53.852> beyond<01:03:54.318> me,<01:03:54.975> the<01:03:55.120> clearer<01:03:55.457> it<01:03:55.617> gets.

01:03:55.938 --> 01:03:57.558
And<01:03:56.002> the<01:03:56.066> more<01:03:56.259> clear<01:03:56.515> it<01:03:56.579> gets,<01:03:56.900> the<01:03:56.964> more<01:03:57.141> confident.

01:03:57.622 --> 01:04:02.964
And<01:03:57.767> the<01:03:57.799> more<01:03:58.023> confident,<01:03:59.066> the<01:03:59.146> less<01:03:59.387> willing<01:03:59.692> I<01:03:59.788> am<01:04:00.269> to<01:04:00.413> listen<01:04:00.734> to<01:04:00.814> anything<01:04:01.231> other<01:04:01.472> than<01:04:01.633> that,<01:04:02.098> that<01:04:02.354> voice<01:04:02.595> of<01:04:02.675> truth.

01:04:03.638 --> 01:04:03.975
Love<01:04:03.862> that.

01:04:04.841 --> 01:04:13.776
All<01:04:04.873> right,<01:04:04.985> so<01:04:05.146> you've<01:04:05.386> worked<01:04:05.643> with<01:04:05.868> a<01:04:05.884> lot<01:04:06.124> of<01:04:06.269> men<01:04:07.231> over<01:04:07.343> the<01:04:07.472> years,<01:04:07.873> like<01:04:08.129> thousands<01:04:08.611> of<01:04:08.691> men,<01:04:09.734> retreats,<01:04:11.001> all<01:04:11.097> sorts<01:04:11.354> of<01:04:11.402> stuff,<01:04:12.380> initiating<01:04:13.503> men.

01:04:14.289 --> 01:04:15.685
Can<01:04:14.450> you<01:04:14.546> talk<01:04:14.867> a<01:04:14.883> little<01:04:15.107> bit<01:04:15.204> about<01:04:15.508> that?

01:04:15.749 --> 01:04:21.090
I<01:04:15.765> mean,<01:04:15.974> you<01:04:16.006> know,<01:04:16.166> this<01:04:16.391> is<01:04:16.535> a<01:04:16.968> topic<01:04:17.337> I<01:04:17.417> care<01:04:17.658> deeply<01:04:18.059> about,<01:04:19.021> but<01:04:19.117> you've<01:04:19.277> been<01:04:19.422> in<01:04:19.518> this<01:04:19.598> space<01:04:20.400> for<01:04:20.560> decades.

01:04:21.827 --> 01:04:35.539
Yeah,<01:04:22.244> I<01:04:22.260> mean,<01:04:22.870> the<01:04:23.030> world<01:04:23.287> was<01:04:23.591> designed<01:04:25.051> for<01:04:25.275> you<01:04:25.371> to<01:04:25.596> learn<01:04:25.997> from<01:04:26.173> mentors<01:04:26.975> or<01:04:27.055> the<01:04:27.200> community<01:04:28.017> or<01:04:28.098> a<01:04:28.338> broader<01:04:28.739> family,<01:04:30.086> and<01:04:30.487> all<01:04:30.663> of<01:04:30.760> our<01:04:30.904> progress<01:04:31.770> has<01:04:31.946> pretty<01:04:32.203> much<01:04:32.588> ripped<01:04:33.630> that<01:04:33.935> from<01:04:34.176> the<01:04:34.352> social<01:04:34.833> fabric.

01:04:35.875 --> 01:04:38.730
So<01:04:36.020> most<01:04:36.421> of<01:04:36.517> us<01:04:36.597> are<01:04:36.741> growing<01:04:37.078> up<01:04:37.255> in<01:04:37.383> some<01:04:37.639> version<01:04:37.976> of<01:04:38.105> isolation.

01:04:39.403 --> 01:04:42.819
Most<01:04:39.708> of<01:04:39.804> us<01:04:39.965> were<01:04:40.125> raised<01:04:40.446> by<01:04:40.606> people<01:04:40.927> who<01:04:41.023> were<01:04:41.151> not<01:04:41.424> fathered<01:04:42.050> or<01:04:42.210> mentored.

01:04:43.269 --> 01:04:46.434
Or<01:04:43.414> discipled<01:04:44.056> maybe<01:04:44.377> the<01:04:44.458> way<01:04:44.779> that<01:04:45.486> they<01:04:45.663> should<01:04:45.968> have<01:04:46.145> been.

01:04:47.173 --> 01:04:50.370
And<01:04:47.269> so<01:04:47.590> we<01:04:47.671> are<01:04:47.815> growing<01:04:48.217> up<01:04:48.394> as<01:04:48.538> a<01:04:48.618> fairly<01:04:48.972> fatherless<01:04:49.663> generation.

01:04:50.964 --> 01:05:07.414
And<01:04:51.044> again,<01:04:51.366> that<01:04:51.510> is<01:04:51.558> not<01:04:51.767> to<01:04:51.928> diminish<01:04:52.554> even<01:04:52.811> my<01:04:52.972> own<01:04:53.213> dad<01:04:53.454> who<01:04:53.518> was<01:04:53.631> a<01:04:53.839> really<01:04:54.161> good<01:04:54.337> man<01:04:55.221> and<01:04:55.317> a<01:04:55.382> good<01:04:55.542> provider<01:04:56.265> and<01:04:56.410> a<01:04:56.506> kind<01:04:56.988> person<01:04:57.486> and<01:04:57.615> a<01:04:57.631> high-integrity<01:04:58.498> man,<01:04:59.382> but<01:04:59.542> the<01:04:59.623> skills,<01:05:00.217> ability,<01:05:00.763> and<01:05:00.844> availability<01:05:02.193> to<01:05:02.273> invest<01:05:02.916> in<01:05:03.575> a<01:05:03.639> son<01:05:04.056> the<01:05:04.201> way<01:05:04.458> that<01:05:05.406> I<01:05:05.502> would<01:05:05.583> have<01:05:05.727> hoped<01:05:06.048> were<01:05:06.129> just<01:05:06.306> not<01:05:06.530> available<01:05:07.028> to<01:05:07.253> him.

01:05:08.089 --> 01:05:10.129
So<01:05:08.538> we<01:05:08.619> are<01:05:08.651> suffering<01:05:09.374> significantly.

01:05:10.643 --> 01:05:17.129
And<01:05:10.803> most<01:05:11.140> of<01:05:11.269> the<01:05:11.365> chaos<01:05:12.794> in<01:05:12.826> our<01:05:13.035> society<01:05:13.693> in<01:05:13.773> every<01:05:14.014> direction<01:05:15.218> is<01:05:15.379> linked<01:05:15.684> to<01:05:15.780> people<01:05:16.053> not<01:05:16.262> knowing<01:05:16.567> who<01:05:16.663> they<01:05:16.824> are.

01:05:17.225 --> 01:05:17.546
Hmm.

01:05:17.642 --> 01:05:20.323
So<01:05:18.413> one<01:05:18.589> half<01:05:18.991> of<01:05:19.023> the<01:05:19.135> population<01:05:19.858> is<01:05:20.034> male.

01:05:20.452 --> 01:05:27.548
So<01:05:20.837> males<01:05:21.303> not<01:05:21.479> understanding<01:05:22.587> who<01:05:22.747> they<01:05:22.988> are,<01:05:23.165> not<01:05:23.309> understanding<01:05:24.032> what<01:05:24.192> their<01:05:24.690> role<01:05:24.867> to<01:05:24.995> play<01:05:25.252> is,<01:05:25.990> is<01:05:26.135> a<01:05:26.215> critical<01:05:26.697> part<01:05:26.938> of<01:05:27.002> the<01:05:27.098> problem.

01:05:28.222 --> 01:05:39.845
In<01:05:28.366> my<01:05:28.607> own<01:05:28.784> marriage,<01:05:30.373> when<01:05:30.534> I<01:05:30.630> wanted<01:05:30.951> to<01:05:31.015> assign<01:05:31.577> blame<01:05:31.914> to<01:05:31.995> my<01:05:32.219> wife,<01:05:33.102> and<01:05:33.183> I<01:05:33.279> did<01:05:33.520> what<01:05:33.744> every<01:05:34.001> other<01:05:34.820> male-centric<01:05:36.393> Christian<01:05:36.811> man<01:05:37.052> in<01:05:37.132> the<01:05:37.292> empire<01:05:37.694> did<01:05:37.870> at<01:05:37.935> that<01:05:38.175> time,<01:05:38.641> which<01:05:38.818> I<01:05:38.898> tried<01:05:39.139> to<01:05:39.219> get<01:05:39.363> her<01:05:39.460> fixed.

01:05:40.000 --> 01:05:41.410
Yeah,<01:05:40.550> she's<01:05:40.770> clearly<01:05:41.070> got<01:05:41.071> a<01:05:41.130> problem.

01:05:41.410 --> 01:05:41.730
Yeah,<01:05:41.411> you<01:05:41.412> gotta<01:05:41.413> fix<01:05:41.414> her.

01:05:41.730 --> 01:05:42.500
Isn't<01:05:41.731> that<01:05:41.850> what<01:05:41.890> you<01:05:41.970> do<01:05:42.150> in<01:05:42.250> marriage?

01:05:42.970 --> 01:05:43.900
Fix<01:05:42.990> your<01:05:43.250> spouse.

01:05:44.350 --> 01:05:48.370
And<01:05:44.490> I<01:05:44.830> finally<01:05:45.210> realized<01:05:45.730> that<01:05:46.090> I<01:05:46.370> was<01:05:46.550> the<01:05:46.730> source<01:05:47.070> of<01:05:47.350> most<01:05:47.550> of<01:05:47.750> the<01:05:47.870> problem.

01:05:48.370 --> 01:05:57.790
It<01:05:48.430> wasn't<01:05:48.670> all<01:05:48.970> my<01:05:49.090> responsibility,<01:05:50.250> but<01:05:50.730> I<01:05:50.890> held<01:05:51.310> the<01:05:51.970> ability,<01:05:53.070> if<01:05:53.230> I<01:05:53.390> would<01:05:53.590> just<01:05:53.790> pursue<01:05:54.210> health,<01:05:55.310> that<01:05:55.670> would<01:05:55.870> change<01:05:56.190> the<01:05:56.350> dynamic<01:05:56.750> of<01:05:56.990> everything.

01:05:57.870 --> 01:06:02.890
So<01:05:58.050> I<01:05:58.170> have<01:05:58.370> a<01:05:58.690> lot<01:05:58.990> of<01:05:59.110> heart<01:05:59.730> for<01:06:00.810> men<01:06:01.050> in<01:06:01.290> particular<01:06:01.630> because<01:06:01.890> I'm<01:06:02.090> a<01:06:02.290> man.

01:06:03.330 --> 01:06:04.590
It's<01:06:03.350> not<01:06:03.510> a<01:06:03.730> sexist<01:06:04.190> thing.

01:06:04.590 --> 01:06:05.950
It's<01:06:04.591> like,<01:06:04.870> that's<01:06:05.030> been<01:06:05.230> my<01:06:05.450> journey.

01:06:05.950 --> 01:06:10.196
And<01:06:06.090> that's<01:06:06.310> the<01:06:06.450> guys<01:06:06.730> I<01:06:07.306> the<01:06:07.387> people,<01:06:08.125> the<01:06:08.205> portion<01:06:08.607> of<01:06:08.671> the<01:06:08.767> population<01:06:09.393> I<01:06:09.473> relate<01:06:09.875> most<01:06:10.131> to.

01:06:10.276 --> 01:06:10.420
Hmm.

01:06:10.838 --> 01:06:22.571
I'll<01:06:11.094> tell<01:06:11.319> you,<01:06:12.619> me<01:06:12.780> and<01:06:12.924> a<01:06:13.181> group<01:06:13.438> of<01:06:13.502> guys<01:06:13.904> put<01:06:14.128> on<01:06:14.289> these<01:06:14.802> men's<01:06:15.172> weekends,<01:06:15.749> and<01:06:15.830> I<01:06:15.990> think<01:06:16.151> we've<01:06:16.375> had,<01:06:17.756> we<01:06:17.900> throw<01:06:18.077> numbers<01:06:18.398> around,<01:06:18.944> over<01:06:19.024> 1,000,<01:06:19.682> maybe<01:06:19.907> close<01:06:20.099> to<01:06:20.244> 1,500<01:06:20.886> people<01:06:21.287> come<01:06:21.528> through<01:06:21.672> these<01:06:21.865> men's<01:06:22.154> events.

01:06:23.278 --> 01:06:30.485

01:07:32.700 --> 01:07:33.824
It<01:07:32.764> feels<01:07:33.150> otherworldly.

01:07:33.969 --> 01:07:35.061
It<01:07:34.049> feels<01:07:34.354> uncommon.

01:07:43.989 --> 01:07:47.169

Oh<01:08:11.439> my<01:08:11.535> gosh.

01:08:12.578 --> 01:08:17.920
Most<01:08:12.931> people<01:08:13.284> will<01:08:13.444> choose<01:08:14.583> a<01:08:14.599> miserable<01:08:15.947> familiar<01:08:16.813> over<01:08:17.070> glorious<01:08:17.551> unknown.

01:08:18.434 --> 01:08:18.514
Wow.

01:08:19.798 --> 01:08:20.407
That<01:08:19.974> is<01:08:20.118> sad.

01:08:21.482 --> 01:08:22.140
But<01:08:21.643> so<01:08:21.867> true.

01:08:28.603 --> 01:08:30.920
It's<01:08:29.987> not<01:08:30.163> immune<01:08:30.550> to<01:08:30.646> that.

01:08:31.273 --> 01:08:33.622
No,<01:08:31.756> but<01:08:32.705> these<01:08:32.866> are<01:08:32.946> degrees<01:08:33.461> here.

01:08:33.751 --> 01:08:36.760
We're<01:08:33.847> talking<01:08:34.169> about<01:08:34.459> removing<01:08:34.893> scales<01:08:35.456> one<01:08:35.617> at<01:08:35.714> a<01:08:35.859> time<01:08:36.197> over<01:08:36.502> time.

Yeah.

Yeah.
