Summary

How do you make decisions about your life? Do you follow what brings you happiness and makes you feel good? Or do you remove emotion from the process and remain focused and objective? Most of us land somewhere in the middle on that spectrum. Juggling the pursuit of our ever-changing interests while working a job that pays the bills. But what happens when your time is equally split between the two and you’re unhappy with that juggling act? In this special three-part episode, Chris helps Rodrigo work through a dilemma. One that places him at an important fork in the road: keep working on the business he’s tirelessly built or give it all up and pursue his dream to become a YouTuber. Part one focuses on what the two options look like for Rodrigo. Which brings more joy, which brings more revenue, and ultimately which he should focus on. Learn more about your ad choices.

conversations with you. In an ongoing series we've been calling business

fundamentals I've been talking about business with Mo Ismail who will be joining us shortly and last night we got

1:16.1

into a kind of a heated conversation even our good friend Lola was saying Chris Doe you are

1:21.3

a savage.

1:23.2

So if you miss that call tonight, might be a little confusing for you, but I'll do my best to get

1:41.8

that's why we're calling this room or the topic passion or profit.

1:46.0

Like do you have to choose one or the other and which one should you choose and how do we even decide to begin with? I believe in
