You're not getting what you want out of your business or your life because you want too many things at the same time.

0:07.0

You're not willing to make trade-offs.

0:10.0

And I will prove it to you.

0:12.0

And so in this video, I'll break down the core problem and the way to frame the trades that you make at different seasons in your life.

0:27.2

Everything in life has tradeoffs, and people just need to determine the price versus the value.

0:31.6

Like anything, there's going to be both of these things.

0:36.0

And so when people say, I can't believe he did this, it's because they're only looking at the cost and not the payout.

0:37.4

Now, if you say, hey, that guy made this trade, I wouldn't have made that trade. Awesome. And that's why you don't have to make that trade. Right. And so, I mean, give you kind of like a frame of mind for this. I was thinking about this because we were, Lail and I were looking at home stuff lately. And we're thinking about, you know, buying homes and all that kind of jazz.

And I also want it to be cozy and not too busy, but I also wanted to have lots of space for activities and a yard.

1:30.9

I can't have all those things.

1:32.9

They are literally structurally impossible for them to all be in the same thing.

1:38.0

One, the beach and the snow mountain, probably not going to exist in the same house.

1:41.3

If I want to have something cozy versus lots of land and

1:44.5

space, probably not going to happen. If I want somebody to be in walking distance but also have a

1:47.6

great aerial view, might not happen. Right? And so each of these things, that one could happen

1:52.1

in a high rise downtown. Okay, that one, maybe. But there's going to be some of these that you

1:57.7

have to make trades. And I think basically like confronting that

2:01.7

is like the core element of what you have to do in life to move forward. And so many people stay

2:08.1

in decision limbo. They stay in purgatory. And purgatory translated into reality that they don't
