Short transcript excerpt from a YouTube video arguing for continuous personal growth and deliberately investing in learning—often by paying others—to buy back time. The speaker emphasizes that no one ever 'has it figured out' and frames paying for expertise (learning from those with years of experience) as a shortcut or "cheat code" to save time and accelerate skill acquisition.
There's always a new level of growth. Like, you're never going to stop investing in yourself. And the people who think they have it figured out are the people who are at risk the most because they think they have it figured out. When, like, nobody has it figured out. You have to keep investing in learning new skills, buying your time back, learning new things that are going to save you more time. Because for me, I'd rather save time than money. I'd rather pay someone to learn the things that took them 10 years to learn. And ultimately, that's the cheat code.
