Okay, so how much are you making now? Why do you need to know that? Well, at the end of the day, success is a very small target. It's going to be hard to hit it if we don't know exactly where we're going. Like, would you agree with that? Yeah, I guess. Do you guess, or would you agree, like, we need to actually know where we're going if we're going to get there? Yeah, but like, you don't seem too sure about it, man. Like, what's actually coming up for you? It just doesn't feel right to just tell you how much I'm making. I'm not really comfortable with that. Hey man, I can see where you're coming from, but can I challenge you on something a little bit? Ultimately, this process of getting better, doing something you've never done before, really getting outcomes you've never gotten before, right? Like, that's really why we're here. Would you agree? Is this supposed to be comfortable? I mean, no. Why would you say that? You grow outside of your comfort zone. The whole— say exactly right, man. So if we only had a conversation about what you're 100% comfortable about, that means we're never going to talk about anything that's going to cause us to grow. So ultimately, for us to grow, we need to talk about things that are uncomfortable. What happens if we continue to stay in our comfort zone? We never answer any type of questions that make us even the slightest bit uncomfortable. How are you going to grow? Yeah, that makes sense. You just don't grow. Be real with me, man. I'm on your team. What are you actually making now? $3.7K a month. Kudos for you to being honest with me. I appreciate it, man.
