0:00Are you happy? I'm stoked. Max stoked. You know, I I I've not asked this question for a for a long time, but I thought I'd ask it cuz it's kind of similar to what we've been talking about today, but if if happiness was like a list of ingredients, it was a recipe, is there anything missing from your recipe that would make you even more happy? And sometimes that recipe is about balancing the ingredients. You need two eggs and 100 eggs. Yeah. One cup of flour.
0:29Yeah. For me, it's always been about autonomy. I just be able I want to I want to be able to do what I find interesting. And that's that's been the core of it. And what I do will change, but the core of having the freedom to do it has been the center of it. And so for me, I don't think my freedom has I mean, not in recent history, my freedom hasn't fundamentally changed in any way. And so I would say that I'm the same level of contentedness as I was last year.
0:57But I find engagement in what I do. And that that's that's I'll give you my definition of happiness, which is doing what you like to do with people you like. And doing that as much as you possibly can. And that's my simple definition. Interesting. Real quick, if you are a business owner and you are not growing as fast as you like, I'd like to give you a free gift.
1:23So my team and I put together the $100 scaling roadmap, which is basically 200 hours of us looking over all the portfolio companies we have and what stages of growth they went through and more importantly, where they got stuck and how they got past it. And so we broke it into these 10 stages and we made this little kind of quiz thing where if you put in your business information, it'll tell you where you're at and the most important part for you, what to do for each of functions of the business across product, marketing, sales, customer success, recruiting, IT, human resources and finance. And so no matter what you're struggling with, someone else has already struggled with it and solved it. And so I'd like to give you this thing absolutely free. You can go to acquisition.com/roadmap, plug in your business information, and if you want us to actually help you deconstruct the business and you're trying to scale, we'd love to help you out. On the thank you page, you just book a call with my team, and we will look at the business, see if we can help, and if we can, we'll invite you out to Vegas, and we'll do this in person, live.
