1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:04,480
Why do you think leaders hide from funding their vision?

2
00:00:04,480 --> 00:00:06,360
This is an inside job.

3
00:00:06,360 --> 00:00:10,360
This is about coming out about this vision you have for the world.

4
00:00:10,360 --> 00:00:15,680
Because I think the biggest challenge is the world is going to vote about your vision.

5
00:00:15,680 --> 00:00:17,840
And I don't even say judge anymore.

6
00:00:17,840 --> 00:00:19,200
They're just going to vote about it.

7
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,560
Yeah, I want to give to that.

8
00:00:20,560 --> 00:00:21,840
No, I don't want to give that.

9
00:00:21,840 --> 00:00:22,840
You're crazy.

10
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:23,840
Water for everybody?

11
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:24,840
That's nuts.

12
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:25,840
Who's going to?

13
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:28,600
No, but I, you know, right?

14
00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:29,720
It's exactly right.

15
00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:32,280
The world is doing this every single day.

16
00:00:32,280 --> 00:00:33,280
And we all want this.

17
00:00:33,280 --> 00:00:35,960
I'm going to get a little psychological on us for a second.

18
00:00:35,960 --> 00:00:40,040
We all want, I need every human being to love everything I say every second.

19
00:00:40,040 --> 00:00:42,920
Is that going to happen?

20
00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:47,400
So it's the ability to go, oh, I just need two thumbs up and I need, and there might

21
00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:48,400
be four thumbs down.

22
00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:50,720
I love that you, because we're doing it.

23
00:00:50,720 --> 00:00:53,320
And then they gave us the tool to do it.

24
00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:54,320
Yeah.

25
00:00:54,320 --> 00:00:57,680
Thank you Apple and not thank you Apple, right?

26
00:00:57,680 --> 00:01:01,960
Like, oh my God, because it's vulnerable.

27
00:01:01,960 --> 00:01:02,960
It takes courage.

28
00:01:02,960 --> 00:01:05,080
It takes commitment.

29
00:01:05,080 --> 00:01:08,440
It's the year where you, I mean, my, when I first came out of the great gate, putting

30
00:01:08,440 --> 00:01:11,200
vigor game into the world, I did a big conference.

31
00:01:11,200 --> 00:01:13,600
I lost $35,000 that year.

32
00:01:13,600 --> 00:01:18,520
I had the willingness to lose for the sake of the game winning.

33
00:01:18,520 --> 00:01:19,840
Most people don't want to do that.

34
00:01:19,840 --> 00:01:21,880
I invested a huge amount of money.

35
00:01:21,880 --> 00:01:25,280
You've probably invested huge amounts of money to get this going.

36
00:01:25,280 --> 00:01:26,280
Good on you.

37
00:01:26,280 --> 00:01:27,280
Right?

38
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:30,080
And, you know, and of course, how do you make money in the backend?

39
00:01:30,080 --> 00:01:31,600
You guys are all figuring that out.

40
00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:33,080
You're helping me figure that out.

41
00:01:33,080 --> 00:01:34,560
I don't like how does this happen?

42
00:01:34,560 --> 00:01:35,560
How do I make money?

43
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:36,560
I'm a live cast.

44
00:01:36,560 --> 00:01:38,040
Does it even happen?

45
00:01:38,040 --> 00:01:39,040
Right.

46
00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:41,360
And you know, I love learning from people like you.

47
00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:42,360
How does this happen?

48
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,080
So I can feel funded.

49
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:50,520
And so that's, that's maybe a long answer, but the, but the speaking it, I don't want

50
00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,160
to link one story to it.

51
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,040
It's a little more vulnerable.

52
00:01:54,040 --> 00:01:57,960
I hope your audience is okay with this, but I'm out about it all, you know, so I was a

53
00:01:57,960 --> 00:01:59,360
closeted gay man.

54
00:01:59,360 --> 00:02:00,360
Okay.

55
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:04,760
From like, whenever you discover like I was 12 and I kind of went, I think I might be,

56
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:06,920
this is the years by the way, when it was not normal.

57
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:08,400
This is the seventies.

58
00:02:08,400 --> 00:02:09,400
Right.

59
00:02:09,400 --> 00:02:10,520
You know, this is not cool.

60
00:02:10,520 --> 00:02:12,320
My church turned on me.

61
00:02:12,320 --> 00:02:14,360
My family kind of turned on me.

62
00:02:14,360 --> 00:02:17,960
It didn't go well, but I moved to California.

63
00:02:17,960 --> 00:02:22,440
Classic, you know, I lived in the East coast, moved to the West coast, get far away from

64
00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:27,400
everything that I knew, discovered myself, became an actor, got in some movies, started

65
00:02:27,400 --> 00:02:29,840
to speak, wrote a, like it started to work.

66
00:02:29,840 --> 00:02:30,840
Right.

67
00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,600
Then of course, as I started to be successful, people started to come back my way.

68
00:02:34,600 --> 00:02:40,560
The point of this story is the volume of judgment that came at me saying, you're not allowed

69
00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:44,440
to be the way you're being freed me up.

70
00:02:44,440 --> 00:02:49,440
It actually frees you when there's that much judgment coming at you.

71
00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,040
Interesting.

72
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:54,400
It just frees you up because it's like, what have I got to lose?

73
00:02:54,400 --> 00:02:57,200
I'm already burning in hell from half the country.

74
00:02:57,200 --> 00:02:58,200
So what?

75
00:02:58,200 --> 00:02:59,200
Okay.

76
00:02:59,200 --> 00:03:02,400
You see, it sort of actually freezes like, okay, got it.

77
00:03:02,400 --> 00:03:08,220
You think I'm, you should, I, you know, just give me the same rights that I get to vote

78
00:03:08,220 --> 00:03:11,400
and I get to buy my taxes and I get to visit my partner in the hospital.

79
00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,440
There's a whole issues here, but just give me the same rights.

80
00:03:15,440 --> 00:03:20,040
But in terms of moral, if you think I'm burning, not you, if anybody's thinking burning in

81
00:03:20,040 --> 00:03:23,080
hell, fantastic have at it.

82
00:03:23,080 --> 00:03:24,080
You know what I mean?

83
00:03:24,080 --> 00:03:25,360
It doesn't have any bearing on me anymore.

84
00:03:25,360 --> 00:03:28,280
So that's the, when you come out, this is the out part.

85
00:03:28,280 --> 00:03:33,200
When you come out with your vision, it's sort of like, you're trying to avoid all that judgment

86
00:03:33,200 --> 00:03:36,880
and you actually have to go towards creating more judgment.

87
00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:37,880
Wow.

88
00:03:37,880 --> 00:03:42,080
Because your vision does create something.

89
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,740
It just does.

90
00:03:43,740 --> 00:03:46,760
And so it's all about coming out about it louder.

91
00:03:46,760 --> 00:03:51,680
I'm going to be so classically like a gay parade, louder and prouder.
