| 0:00.0 | What do we want? We must identify it. We must know where we want to go. We must know what success |
| 0:05.8 | really means to us. And we have to sell ourselves on that every single day. Welcome to the Dean |
| 0:11.0 | Graziosi show. All success starts right here. Right, so it's time to set the foundation for that |
| 0:20.8 | next level. So if you know that starting point, the next part in your journey is to know the |
| 0:27.6 | destination. And in this next section, I want you to think about where we want to be in our lives, |
| 0:36.5 | what we really want to achieve. And I want to tell a little story here. You see, you've heard |
| 0:43.7 | what I'm about to tell you before. You've probably heard it a lot of times. Most of times in life, |
| 0:48.4 | our brain defaults, I said this earlier, to what we don't want. I don't want this job anymore. |
| 0:53.4 | I don't want to make the money. I don't want to have lack of time. I don't want to work for these |

| 1:15.8 | And I'd bring them over to one. And I'd say, okay, tell me what you don't want out of life. |
| 1:20.8 | And oh my god, it was like they recorded it. Like, I don't want this. I don't, I couldn't write |
| 1:24.6 | fast enough, right? And then I would break their pattern in the middle and I would get them out |
| 1:28.8 | of the seat next to the one whiteboard, bring them over to another seat and sit them down and say, |
| 1:32.4 | okay, now tell me what you want. And I'd go to the board. Like, what do you really want out of life? |
| 1:36.8 | And they'd be like, I don't want this job. I'm like, no, no, no, that goes on that whiteboard over |
| 1:41.8 | there. I want to know what you want. And I had two answers that happened all the time. You know, |
