00:00:00
Do you think if you choose hard today, you usually get easy tomorrow? >> In many contexts, yes. So, for example,
00:00:09
my think of I was thinking of my father. My father would never have he would avoid conflict at all costs. He would
00:00:16
avoid the difficult conversation. And when I zoom out over the the decades of his life and marriage, I go, "Man,
00:00:22
that cost you big time." >> You caught up with him. >> Oh my god.
00:00:26
And me inverting that in my own life and continually just confronting it head on
00:00:31
has had the complete opposite effect. You never, >> you know, like when you were talking
00:00:36
about being a young man and making that decision cuz you had that voice in your head saying law might not be my thing
00:00:42
and you made that phone call to your father. >> Yeah. >> Like what what I hear you did is like
00:00:46
you >> realigned yourself to you. Now, if you hadn't made that call and you' let a
00:00:51
couple more of those bad habits, you would have got to 40 and been like, "Who

the [ __ ] is this guy? What is this life?" You would have looked around and
00:00:57

00:01:03
think it requires you to do this the slightly harder thing today. What do you think?
00:01:08
>> I agree with you. That's the that's the resistance. Look, I still got to learn how to take a
00:01:15
vacation because, you know, we there's sometimes when the wind's at our back
00:01:24
and we've earned it. >> Mhm. >> There's sometimes when it's easy street
00:01:27
and it's like, yeah, don't interrupt this, man. This is a sweet ass song. Trust that the hill's
00:01:35
coming. Don't be so impressed with this. What I have to do is don't fall into
00:01:39
when things are going really well. I go, "Ah, there it is. That's the mean."
00:01:45
No, it's not. Not with any ambition. It's not or not with life happening.
00:01:52
It's not
