Summary
Friday's are complete BS. There's no reason you should be striving for the weekend, because that means you're not doing something right. Family time is important, and being with the ones you love is important but shouldn't be running away from what you do towards the weekend. I used to do this, so TRUST me, you need to change this before it gets too far. Take this rant to heart because EVERY SINGLE PERSON needs to hear this. Share it with a friend that really needs it !!

| 1:54.0 | To take a job that you love that you can grow up into, please do not waste the next 5, 10, 15, 20, 30 years of your life, and allocate 30, 40, 50, 60% of your time to something that you cheer to end each and every week. |
| 2:10.0 | Guys, thanks so much for listening to the audio experience. It would mean the world, and I mean the world. |
