The punchline of life is not wealth, it's not fame, it's not admiration, it's how you feel about yourself when you're by yourself.

Hey everybody, welcome to impact theory.

We're living through an era where value is the most potent marketing

campaign you can ever run. I loved the idea of telling stories that impacted a

lot of people. That becomes stories that that becomes the real passion.

A set of skills that matter to you,

that you work extraordinarily hard to build

that allow you to serve not only

yourself but other people. And if you can make your business about that, then you're

good. But I'm really getting scared that people no longer believe in class mobility.

It's like having a fixed mindset.

If you don't believe that your talent and intelligence are malleable traits. That is a shitty life.

I really, really want people to understand.

I was lazy and fearful that I wasn't good enough.

I used to come home and lay on the carpet

because I couldn't fucking afford furniture

and think, what the fuck am I doing with my life?

I remember somebody saying to me,

don't you hope I'm right?

And I was like, fuck, I actually do hope you're right.

I do hope I can get better at anything at any time

just by putting in energy and effort.
