0:00Whenever I have these prolonged moments of suffering that kind of break past what I would consider the normal varants of life, right? It's like, no, this broke through the barrier of shitty. >> Um, I do have this history of having significantly larger improvements that happen post dip, right? So, it's like we kind of get the opportunity to buy the dip uh for our own negative consequences. And I've I've bought the dip at almost every time and it's rewarded me disproportionately. And so I I hate to make make a make a parallel between like the economy or the stock market and and your own internal happiness, but I think I think that's what's happening right now. [laughter] Um but that that that thought process has has shortened some of the the the shittiness that happens because then it's like, okay, well it has to it has to be worth it, right? I have to make this worth it, right? because I'm this this sucks. So what what can I learn from this? What can I be better from this as a result? And so like obviously there's things that I've been working on in order in order to improve. But um beyond that uh I because gratitude has been so difficult for me which I've I've talked about before like I never I've never once said I am the the champion of happiness. But in an effort to try and make it easier for me I was like well how do you how do you how do you operationalize gratitude? Right? And so the simplest way that I have is imagine something terrible and then remember that that has not happened. Like it's like I I've yet to find like that has been the the simplest way like be grateful. It's like what do I do to be grateful
1:38>> like no no like that more. It's like that that it's like it's been difficult. So it's like okay um and the on the flip side imagine something that you love imagine it's gone and then remember that it's back again. And so that's I think the operationalizing of those moments which is I have this coffee moment. Man, if I never had another coffee moment like this again, this would mean more to me. Okay. And by doing that and by remembering what it would be like to not have this, then this thing now in the moment becomes worth more.
2:04>> And so it's basically creating a wider discrepancy between the moment we're trying to find gratitude with and something else in order to basically manufacture a delta. Because I think that that to to your point like we're so much more sensitive to the negative delta than we are on the positive delta that we have to make the positive delta massive. And so how do you make moments massive? It's like well then we just have to drop the floor out and then remember that now all of a sudden we went from the bottom of the pool back to the surface even though we're not above the water.
2:31>> It's like playing uh pretend. So I'm >> it's 100% playing pretend. All gratitude is is playing pretend. Real quick, I'm going to show you the exact 10-stage road map from zero to 100 million plus that less than 1% of companies finish. I've now done multiple times. And so, I can say with a lot of confidence that these are the stages as headcount increases that you need to get through. And I broke each of these down by eight different functions of the business, what the constraint feels like, like what are the symptoms of it when you're going through it, and then what steps we actually took to graduate. And we've done this across software, physical products, uh, service businesses, brick and mortar, all of this, and it works.
