Literally five to 10 people would show up once a month, but it would make me so happy to spend hours with them afterwards. I would literally do a session. I'd serve everyone food, because we'd always sit down to break bread. And then we'd sit down for two, three hours, and I would just answer people's questions and sit with them. And I didn't have any followers. I didn't have any platforms.

I didn't have any audience, but I loved it. And so I was already living the dream, in my opinion, because I was getting to do what I love on top of having a day job. And to me, that felt realistic. When I look at my happiness and joy now. Scale of one to 10 in like the, yeah. I'd say, to be honest, there's days when it's, a nine and there's days when it's a five. Really?

Yeah, it oscillates and it's because. Why is that? Well, I think it's because I've

taken on so much more now to think about to be in charge of to lead you have other people that you're responsible for you have teams of all of these people that rely on you to do what you do best and take care of them and connect and they're trying to help you out and build with you and so the responsibility scale level is so much higher now

And so it's not that I don't feel peaceful in my purpose, but it's that you do deal with daily stress, daily challenges, daily pressure in a way that I didn't before because it was just about me.

No way.

No way.

Well, one thing I've understood, though, with that point is that the reason why that translates is that discomfort is where you grow. That's it. And that's what I realized. You can't stay comfortable. You can't. And so I find that a lot of my life today, I often say to people, I think 75% of my working week is in my discomfort zone. And so I really crave comfort in my relationships.

I crave comfort on my weekends. Peace at home, relax. Exactly, yeah. I have great relationships with you, of course. And we have a good group of friends and I have good relationship with my wife. And like, so I rely on my personal relationships to have some comfort and some stability as I take on discomfort in my service and purpose. And so I think that makes sense.

And so I think you also just get better at understanding what growth looks like and what you need. I think if I just sat and lived that life forever, I don't think it would have stabilized. I don't think I would have stayed at a seven or an eight. That would have probably come down as well, but for different reasons.

And so the reason that now it comes down are actually positive, healthy reasons or can be managed in a healthy way.
