Summary

I find that people are far more clear on what keeps them from having what they want, than being clear on what they actually want. The job, the kids, the money, the chores, the upbringing, the government, the economy, the devil, and an infinite list of culprits are to blame for keeping people down. For stealing their dreams. For keeping them from what they want. However I find that if you ask the question, “OK, imagine you have 10 million in the bank. You have everyone’s support in your life. Now, what would you do? What would you do with your days?” Most people are very unclear. Which to me belies that many people actually want the grind and the responsibilities because without them, they don’t know themselves and they have little idea what they would do to occupy their time. The grind might as well be the purpose if we have no other clear purpose.

0:36.6	okay, imagine you have $10 million
0:38.0	in the bank. You've got everyone's support in your life. Now, what do you do? What would you do
0:43.2	with your days? Most people are really unclear, which to me belies that a lot of folks kind of want
0:52.2	the grind and the responsibilities because without them,
