Yeah, buddy, happy Thursday morning. Okay, I got some bad news for you, but I also got some good

news for it. The bad news is the boss man got on

an airplane and he did that before we got a chance to record this episode. The good news is I'm

going to play one of our favorites of all time. In fact, an episode that I felt pretty uncomfortable

about when we first published it, but since that time, this was three years ago now. We've gotten

tons of email talking about how this was a really important episode. For those of you who haven't been listening for the last three years, we're going to replay it and give you a chance to listen to the Tao or the hustle. Maybe it'll give you a little insight into our mindset at this time in our lives. Back then, we announced in the news section of this program that we had our first $100,000

month. And it's just, it's incredible to look back on that from this perspective. You know,

we're here in Bangkok. Hundreds of listeners of this podcast came into town this weekend for

DCBKK, our annual pilgrimage bash for location independent entrepreneurs. And it was truly a

magical, incredible week week i'm still

decompressing i can't really wrap my head around it just yet but it's just nuts to see people in the

audience having similar kinds of results look it's not all about money either i don't want to

always talk about the money thing it's about doing the things that you want to do if what you want

to do is have a great lifestyle business that brings you some income so you can about doing the things that you want to do. If what you want to do is have a

great lifestyle business that brings you some income so you can relax in a place that you want to relax in and focus on your art, I think that's awesome. If it's you want to have a million dollars in sales and build a big business and automate yourself out of it, I think that's awesome too. So, you know, it's really about doing what you want to do. That's what this show's about. And it's just awesome to see hundreds of other people in person, you know, come time and time again, build

relationships, the fellowship, the vibe. Hopefully I can get a microphone between me and the boss man
