I saw something interesting the other day, and it was on somebody's story, and they were saying, I will never buy courses. And I'm not saying this from the perspective of, you need to buy my program, my course, or anybody's for that matter. I'm merely bringing it to attention because there's something really fundamentally wrong with that frame of thinking. It's like people saying, I will never go to college or I will never want to learn anything new in my entire life. And whether you buy it, someone else's course, my course, somebody like, it doesn't matter. It's more about the principle of, like, we don't know everything. I don't know everything. And that's how I got in trouble, honestly, in the beginning, because I had that frame of thinking, like, all these courses are a scam. All these programs are a scam. Like, none of this stuff works. When I should have shifted my thinking to, how can I make this work for me?
