If you think about Elon Musk, whether you like him or not, love him, hate him, whatever, it's like, oh, I'm going to invent a rocket ship company. It's not like there's tons of rocket successful rocket ship companies out there just crushing it. Or, hey, I'm going to create an electric car company. He wasn't the first. This is the most successful by far. But those were like, crazy idea, like, I'm going to do this crazy thing and then make it successful. We're not asking you to do some crazy thing that isn't proven. This is a well worn path. There is gold in the gold mine of coaching. There's no doubt about it. It's 100%. There's gold in that mine. How much digging you're going to have to do to get well? That depends on how much of shit you might have to dig through or how committed you are to doing the shit. Even with doing the stuff you need to do, even if the shit's not cleared up, it's like, oh my God, I might get rejected, but I invested a million dollars. I'm gonna show up again tomorrow. I'm gonna show up again every day. When you're so committed that even if you are insecure and feel like all your buttons are getting pushed, you're gonna keep showing up anyway. When you're that committed.
