All right 208 00:16:41,320 --> 00:16:44,240 If you did that by the time you're in your 209 00:16:44,920 --> 00:16:51,000 And then you could even stop that all right and by the time you know 10 years later in your 50s with just 210 00:16:51,360 --> 00:16:55,060 compounded interest and and and the growth of your money 211 00:16:55,060 --> 00:16:56,580 Yeah 212 00:16:56,580 --> 00:16:58,580 You'll have more money than you could ever dream of 213 00:16:59,580 --> 00:17:01,580 And if you don't do it 214 00:17:01,940 --> 00:17:05,540 Every day every month every year you don't do that 215 00:17:07,180 --> 00:17:09,180 It gets harder and harder 216 00:17:09,220 --> 00:17:15,180 You know yes such as if somebody was 26 put in 10% of their income till they're 36 10 years 217 00:17:15,180 --> 00:17:19,700 And then waited another 10 or 15 years you'd have you'd have you know 218 00:17:20,180 --> 00:17:23,640 Well over a million bucks something like that. Okay. All right 219 00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:25,440 but 220 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:28,600 If you waited till you were 36 to start 221 00:17:28,960 --> 00:17:36,000 You would have to put in more money than that for like 20 years to catch up to those 10 years of what you did from when you were 222 00:17:36,120 --> 00:17:41,760 26 oh, wow.

I would think I think that's even more better 240 00:18:56,700 --> 00:19:03,020 Because sometimes it's 26. I'm I'm always thinking like oh am I giving up too quickly? 241 00:19:03,980 --> 00:19:08,540 Because I'm always thinking of ways to work for myself, but then I'm always 242 00:19:09,700 --> 00:19:11,700 quitting a nine-to-five 243 00:19:11,700 --> 00:19:17,540 Right, and it feels like I just that's not the way in life like you can't keep quitting when things go 244 00:19:17,580 --> 00:19:20,900 Don't go your way or don't go as fast as you would like 245 00:19:20,900 --> 00:19:26,420 Yes, but I also don't never want to foresee myself sitting ten years at a job 246 00:19:26,420 --> 00:19:31,400 Like I don't foresee giving anybody ten years of my time at a corporate job 247 00:19:31,400 --> 00:19:37,340 Like maybe a person but a corporate job ten years. I meet people. They're like, oh, I've been here ten years 248 00:19:37,340 --> 00:19:39,340 I've been here in eight years 249 00:19:39,340 --> 00:19:43,100 Can't get past a year baby. Like this is my first time getting past a year 250 00:19:43,660 --> 00:19:48,060 So and it's not there. It's not that it's just like once you start to learn the job 251 00:19:48,940 --> 00:19:52,740 I'm like, oh, there's more to there's more than me than this, right? 252 00:19:52,740 --> 00:19:58,140 And that's what I come to that realization, but I'm also trying to learn discipline of hey 253 00:19:59,140 --> 00:20:03,500 When things don't go your way all the time, you got to know when to sit down 254 00:20:03,500 --> 00:20:11,420 Yes, because that's what a job shows you a job will discipline you to me the corporate work role shows you a good a good 255 00:20:11,420 --> 00:20:13,060 Brought of discipline, right? 256 00:20:13,060 --> 00:20:18,780 But also they show you the route of this is just optional baby like don't forget 257 00:20:18,940 --> 00:20:23,820 This is you do have rights. Your right is you can quit or you can work, right? 258 00:20:23,820 --> 00:20:30,260 So that is what I think of it like you you still have rights, but you're learning a lesson over there 259 00:20:30,260 --> 00:20:34,660 It's up to you to to look at it in a different perspective, right? 260 00:20:34,860 --> 00:20:38,220 Because that's how I did it. I just look at look at things in a different perspective 261 00:20:38,220 --> 00:20:43,500 I look at it like if I can do this I can run this but if I can't even listen 262 00:20:43,500 --> 00:20:46,780 I don't tell somebody what to do, right? You get what I'm saying? 263 00:20:46,780 --> 00:20:49,340 So that's just how I looked at it different perspective 264 00:20:49,340 --> 00:20:54,140 But I'm like in the mix of it now you got to make an escape goal to get the hell out, right? 265 00:20:54,140 --> 00:20:56,900 Because now you learning what to do 266 00:20:56,900 --> 00:21:00,740 But now it's time for you to go apply what you just learned elsewhere, right? 267 00:21:00,780 --> 00:21:04,540 You get what I'm saying if you learned how to come in on time now 268 00:21:04,540 --> 00:21:09,820 I need to go apply that by showing up on time at my own job every time up for my own business 269 00:21:09,940 --> 00:21:11,940 You get what I'm saying? So I look at it like 270 00:21:12,700 --> 00:21:16,020 What one give you it's up to you how you take it, right? 271 00:21:16,020 --> 00:21:21,460 I can take it as I can switch the perspective and look at it in my best way, okay? 272 00:21:21,860 --> 00:21:24,540 She's yelling at me, but technically if she didn't care 273 00:21:24,540 --> 00:21:26,860 She wouldn't stop but just stopping yell 274 00:21:27,420 --> 00:21:31,100 Exactly, so clearly she cares. This is a passionate yell 275 00:21:31,860 --> 00:21:33,060 Huh, okay? 276 00:21:33,060 --> 00:21:34,180 It's a good way to look at it 277 00:21:34,180 --> 00:21:40,460 Because I've learned people quick if I if they can care less they're not wasting their time or their breath, right? 278 00:21:40,980 --> 00:21:45,940 So even if they're telling you that they don't like you there what they like you right? 279 00:21:46,340 --> 00:21:53,540 They wouldn't waste their time or breath and typically a person will literally just walk away from someone if that's not worth it to them 280 00:21:53,540 --> 00:21:56,980 That's right, so I'm like if somebody is wasting their time on me 281 00:21:56,980 --> 00:21:58,860 I look at it like okay 282 00:21:58,860 --> 00:22:05,500 It's not a bad thing because you could have good you could have just not said nothing at all right even with a manager 283 00:22:05,540 --> 00:22:10,420 So my job is to take that and to like I stated 284 00:22:10,980 --> 00:22:16,340 Apply it elsewhere, right? If I'm yelling at somebody only yell at a yellow them out of passion 285 00:22:16,340 --> 00:22:19,820 Don't don't let it come for anger if you need the anger to step away 286 00:22:19,820 --> 00:22:26,660 But if it's not coming from passion like hey, I really for see you succeeding.
