Starting point is 00:00:00 If you're not successful by 21, you are cooked. Bro! Did you know that if you're 21 and you don't have a successful business or you don't have a Ferrari in your garage, you're cooked? It actually means that you're a failure. You have completely failed. You were supposed to invest when you were younger in roughly 2008 in the housing crisis, bought a house, then flipped it,
Starting point is 00:00:20 and then when you learned about Bitcoin, you were supposed to invest in Bitcoin. And if you didn't do this, you're cooked, bud, you're cooked. Is how all of us feel. news flash for you. It takes time, bro. It takes time. Well, they tell us that time is the only thing that we don't get back, right? Famously, I've said that to you guys. But it doesn't mean it doesn't take time. Case in point, I was walking down the street with this older gentleman, successful guy. He was reaching his 60s and he was kind of telling me, well, you get older, your body changes, you can't do things as much. And I asked,
Starting point is 00:01:01 You know, does it really go by that fast? Everyone who's older that I speak to, my grandma, my grandpa, my mom and dad, they're always like, it goes by so fast. Life is so fast. It's so quick. It's like you blink and you're 55, bro. And I remember he told me, it's a long life. Life is long.
Starting point is 00:01:30 What? Life is long. It takes time. We're so used to seeing the anomalies at the top. They're a millionaire by age 16, by age 18, by age 17, 38. I'm like, hey, what's up? Hello. That's not how most of us our lives are going to pan out.

Starting point is 00:02:10 Learning something new. Starting something. Figuring out what your idea is. It takes time. And I'm not saying to be lazy and be like, oh, whatever, bro, whatever. No, but get on it. Because guess what? The sooner you get on it, whatever it is, the sooner it might come to you.
Starting point is 00:02:31 Sounds pretty good. Doesn't sound like a bad deal. the more you procrastinate on something I mean the longer it's going to take but the sooner you try something you might actually have something but it takes time which I'm not telling you to grind set
Starting point is 00:02:50 that's not what I'm telling you either but I'm just saying like there's beauty in the process there's so much beauty in the process when you have the lows of doing something whatever it is you're training for a marathon you slip up and you face plant and you scratch your face. That's a moment you remember.
Starting point is 00:03:11 And when you finish the marathon and you get the time that you wanted, you remember that moment and you're like, that's why I did this. That's why I did this.

Starting point is 00:06:51 But if you do the things you love, it'll be okay. And stop thinking that you need to be successful by 21. You don't. Find things you like to do. Find things that you're passionate about. What if I like to make money? Cool. Find ways to make money.
