Fear exists in the vague, not the specific.

I think fear exists in the vague, not in the specific. When you [music] say, "I'm going to quit my job and then what if this doesn't work?" Tons of fear.

Key takeaways

  • If I say, "I'm going to quit my job and then [music] I'm going to try and start a business and if the business doesn't work, I'll [music] probably have a compelling story that I could tell for business school if I wanted to to show that I had some entrepreneurial slant.
  • And the actual loss would be maybe the savings [music] that I'd saved up.
  • But if I'm younger or I haven't made as much money as I want, then that's never been the amount of money [music] that would be material anyways on the grand scheme of what I would like to make.
  • And in terms of living situation, [music] I will worst case go back to my parents' house with my tail between my legs or sleep at a friend's couch because I have enough people that would be willing to put me up in a garage if I had to.

0:00I think fear exists in the vague, not in the specific. When you [music] say, "I'm going to quit my job and then what if this doesn't work?" Tons of fear. If I say, "I'm going to quit my job and then [music] I'm going to try and start a business and if the business doesn't work, I'll [music] probably have a compelling story that I could tell for business school if I wanted to to show that I had some entrepreneurial slant. In the meantime, I could use that experience [music] plus my job experience to probably get another or maybe even better job match [music] or supersede my existing income. And the actual loss would be maybe the savings [music] that I'd saved up. But if I'm younger or I haven't made as much money as I want, then that's never been the amount of money [music] that would be material anyways on the grand scheme of what I would like to make. And in terms of living situation, [music] I will worst case go back to my parents' house with my tail between my legs or sleep at a friend's couch because I have enough people that would be willing to put me up in a garage if I had to. So my [music] actual worst case scenario is just like I have a cool story and maybe some shame. Not as much fear there, right? But like the first one like, "I'll fail, everyone will hate me and I'll die."
