0:00I spent basically 5 years in the pursuit of peace or happiness or satisfaction, whatever version of that word, and that was unfruitful for me. And so, I decided to forego the path of chasing happiness and peace and started chasing something that I could do [music] rather than something that could feel. And when I started shifting all of my behavior and all my learnings around what can I do and focusing only those things, [music] I started getting satisfaction as a result.
0:30And so, then that became a huge shift in my worldview. I will just focus on the things that I can see with my eyes and do with my hands. I only describe the [music] world in words that people can understand. That's what allows for really clear communication and a high percentage of communication translating to the other person. And this is why if I were ever against anything, it would be vague language. It's just terms that people use that sound good, rhetoric, putting words together that alliterate or that rhyme, but doing it in a way that oh, that sounds really good, but they don't know what it means.
0:57Um and so, they can't really take any action [music] as a result, but it sounds good.
