EP 117: The Most POWERFUL Question YOU Could Ask, that Most Fail to Do!

Welcome to the Making of A dm.

One question to change your future. That's what we're going to talk about on today's show and so much more. So with that said, let's get started.

I'm here to help and teach him what I know and how I did it to discover freedom. There ain't no question mark. Kevin's. When stepping it down, he's closing deals. Time to tell him what the DM stand for. I'm a deal maker. A deal maker. But I'm not just a deal maker. I'm a dream maker.

Hey there, it's your boy, Mark Evans. D. If I sound a little giddy today, because I am. I'm hanging out in the Treehouse office here in Kirtland, Ohio, overlooking a 200 foot ravine to my left and right and back. And it's absolutely amazing. You can see it on social media. I posted about the treehouse and all, but if you guys are new here, thank you so much to the making of the DM. It's been a crazy last 14 days to say the least. And I still got another home stretch of 10 days left. But I kind of want to share some stuff with you guys about. I just had my birthday on June 19th on Father's Day. So to you fathers, happy Father's Day. Hope you had an absolute epic day and share some cool stuff that happened here. But I want to talk to you about a lot of things in business and life today. It's going to really, I believe we're all dealing with this stuff, so I just want to talk about some real stuff as we always do here on the Making of A dm. Before I get started, thank you guys so much for the five star reviews over on itunes and whatever platform you utilize. We've had a surge of book sales, a surge of downloads. Recently. I was speaking at Lions Not Sheep with my boy Sean Whalen out in Utah. And thank you guys for everyone that supported that. It was absolutely epic. It was a really cool moment. A really, really cool moment. And like I said, I shared that last week. But it's pretty neat to see all the amazing people out there building a life that they want and getting their house in order, as Sean always says. So let's dive into it. Today's gonna be kind of a random show. I got some notes here to talk to you about. But, you know, we all have something to accomplish. And what I mean by that is I sit here and I'm sharing my life pretty visibly on social media. I only share Probably a smidget of what's really going on over here. But I do have a lot of cool stuff going on. I have a lot of crazy shit going on too. So don't get it twisted. But if I was a spectator, consumption mode, I would think that everyone has everything. And I'm out there like bouncing around a hundred different places. And what I'm talking about today is really focus. And I want you to do something today. Take an exercise and grab a piece of paper sometime. And you know when you got 20, 30 minutes and really ask yourself, what do I want? Right, what do you want? It's not what does Mark want? Or what does Mark have? Because, right, we all might want the big houses, the big cars, the jets and all this cool shit, but do you really want it? There's a difference between wanting it and really wanting it. What I'm trying to do is relieve a lot of stress off of people that are trying to be something or someone that they don't really want to be. It's interesting. I was walking, I've been working out walking with a 40 pound vest here in my neighborhood. This is a neighborhood where there's not a house under a million dollars. And by the way, a million dollars in Ohio is a lot of money. Million dollars in Florida, not so much. But the house areas where we're at minimum, minimum entry is a million dollars. These are all, you know, these are estate style housing. And you know, some of them go up to, you know, 20, 30 million. But as I'm walking around and I'm not saying this to be douchey, I'm just sharing real life stuff. Had my headset on, I'm listening to an audio book and I've got this vest. And I'm walking up a pretty big hill and I'm looking left and right and forward and up and just like, you ever have those gratitude moments where you're like, holy. And then I start thinking, this is a true story. I was like, what the hell do these people do for a living? How can they afford these houses? This is tax. I mean, you're paying, you know, five to six grand a month just in taxes. And then you got lawn care, you got flowers, you got, you know, pool maintenance. I mean, you got everything, right? I mean, literally, just to maintain the house In Ohio costs 130 a year minimum. $130,000 a year, right? And I keep walking and I lit. I shit you not, I stopped. I'm like, dude, you're one of the people in this Complex. You, you own one of the nicest houses in this complex. It just hit me, this, this may sound weird, but sometimes we forget that we're all on a journey. I'm no different than anybody else. I'm a hillbilly kid from Ohio that just figured out how to make money. And I love making money. I love building businesses. I love driving revenue. I love, you know, taking massive risk. I love it. I couldn't imagine, truthfully, I couldn't imagine life without it. And I start thinking and, you know, across the street I have a pretty prominent lawyer. Very, very. He's a business owner lawyer, though there's a difference. He has thousands of lawyers under him, multiple states. Then across the street, another guy owns a massive company that does billing for Medicare and Medicaid and all that stuff. And then next to me, you start thinking about, these are business owners. Now, I'm not saying some employees don't live here because there's several, but most people that's in this complex are definitely risk takers, I.e. business owners. And I'm not saying you have to be a business owner to live an amazing life. That's the path I've chosen. That's the path I will live until eternity, until I die. And ideally, if I do it right, it will live beyond me. You see, I have hundreds of people that rely on me every day. Hundreds of employees, vendors, staff, like hundreds of people. That's not for everybody. It could be in your. Like, if you're going after it and you're not, you don't want that. It might become a massive burden. It could cause massive internal destruction. Again, you're trying to be someone you don't want to be. And I would hate for you, whatever age you're at today, to be living in someone else's shoes or trying to, if you will, because you're never going to be satisfied. You'll never be happy because you're always chasing the next thing they got, not what you have or what you want. One thing I've realized about myself over the years and through coaching and mentoring that I. I do for others and others do for me is that I've become very crystal clear on who I am. And I'm very clear on it. I have no ego attached to it. I know what I'm great at. I know what I absolutely suck ass at. And I don't act like I know how to do everything anymore. When I didn't have that much money, I acted like I knew everything. I was a big shot. I was A massive king of the dipshits. I wanted, yes, people around me everywhere because I was the boss. That's so stupid. But again, just to be clear though, I was mimicking how I thought success looked through other people that I met on my journey. See, back then, I didn't have social media where I could look outwardly. I didn't have audiobooks. I was reading leadership books and I was doing all this cool stuff. But I never understood, like, I just thought you wanted to be the boss. You know, you always see these TV shows where the boss is the man. He's. He's the, you know, he lays down the law. He. He does crazy stuff. He, you know, he tells people off and he disrespects himself and others. Like, that's kind of what I was doing. Not kind of. I was doing that stupid. When I sit down and really started getting an authentic with myself. See, everyone talks about authenticity. Well, you can't share outwardly authenticity until you actually know what the fuck you stand for and who you are. And when you do that, authenticity is not a process. It's just who you are. I say stupid shit all the time. I am silly. I'm quirky, I'm funny, I'm goofy. My kids laugh at my stupid jokes. That's fun to me. I like to make people laugh. But I also love tell people to my demise. Oftentimes, like, I genuinely. I invest a lot of money in this podcast show. I hire people to help edit it. I hire people to help put it together. I hire people to help deploy it. We email it. I mean, it cost six figures a year to do a podcast show for free. And I'm not saying, oh, thank you, Mark. It's not about that. I'm just sharing. I do this because I love to and I want to and I get to. I don't have to. I get to do this. See, the old Mark would have never done something like this because it cost money. And I would ask, what's my return on investment? I was talking with a guy yesterday. He's like, dude, what's your KPIs for social media? I said, help people. Like, that's my KPI. See, the thing is, as a business owner, you get stuff twisted. You try to businessize everything. Well, what's your KPIs going to bed. What's your like? Everyone's so focused on certain data that's not quantifiable. My impact by doing this podcast show might not show up for 20 years. And I'm cool with that. But if I was doing this directly to make money and only make money, which I'm not, I'd have a way different strategic plan. My message would be geared to sell the out of you 24 7. My agenda would be misaligned with your objective. You're coming here to learn and expand and grow. I'm coming here to get in your pocket and take your cash. That's a misalignment. There's a lot of shows out there that. That's their agenda. That's their goal. They're sitting around a table right now saying, podcast show number, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. How much are we going to make? How many eyeballs and ears do we get? And let's extract money. Let's go offer X. Boom, Done. And you're sitting there learning, thinking you're learning how to make your life better, but what you're doing is learning how to line their pockets. Now, listen, I'm not knocking the models. That's a model, My model. My agenda here is simply to serve. To sit across the desk from you or sit across the cigar lounge and hang out and smoke a cigar with you. To connect with you at a deeper level. I wish I could meet 8 billion people one on one. Unfortunately, it's just not the case. But it's a pretty cool goal. I want to make an impact in people's lives. Everyone I touch, from the assistant to the house cleaner to the lawn care guy, my. My pond guy here, we have ponds on the property. He literally went above and beyond. His name's Lou. Great guy. I didn't even say anything. I was like, dude, like, you know, I have a party on Sunday, Father's Day. It's my birthday. Some people here, I love to be nice. I love to be working. He looked at me, said, done. He showed up Saturday. He was here all day. Keep in mind, he was here all day Friday. He put this in his schedule when he didn't even have time. He made time. Think about that. Because the old mark, the guy would have said, f you, you know, whatever. But, dude, I pay people fast. I respect people and I want to help people. I want to see people succeed. You succeeding does not take away from me. The truth is you succeeding. Well, actually, we could do more together. If there's one metric that I would love to measure, I don't know how to do it yet. And if you know how, please let me know. I'd love to know how. I want to know how many people globally we employ as a unit, as a dm. Making of a DM family. How many people do we employ? That's a metric I think about often. I want to employ tens of thousands of people because I believe if we can accomplish that, when we accomplish that, I believe I can change their lives. I believe I can change their trajectory, their financial legacy. You got to remember, not everybody wants to be a millionaire multimillionaire. They understand it's a different cadence, but they want to be respected, they want to be rewarded, and they want to be recognized on a consistent basis for the efforts they put in. Now, listen, if you're a lazy piece of shit, I don't want you in my environment at all, ever. But those people will get weeded out through the process. But I've realized what I'm great at. I'm still learning, by the way, I'm still editing this. This is something that has to have constant focus on because as we get bigger in the game. I just turned 44 on June 19th. It's absolutely insane, but I want you to get very crystal clear. You got. And let me back. Go back for a second. I have two young children, almost 7 and 3, and my wife. I love my family. Not all business owners want to be with their family. They're traveling around the world to get away from their family. Sleeping with 20 different people or what? Like, again, not judging it. It's just my agenda is to be at home every day, which I am. I'm out in the treehouse about a thousand yards from the house. I took my son's little 125cc Jeep. I drove it here. Takes about a minute. And I'm a family guy first. I want to be known as a great dad, a great husband, and a great leader, in that order. See, I don't believe, like, how can you be a great leader at a job or in a company and not be a great family man? I think you're failing at a massive level. Massive. You know, I watched that Steve Jobs movie and I thought about. I'm like, dude, like, I would not trade my life. I wouldn't trade one ounce of my life for anything. He has think he's a smart guy, but he had no personal life. He disowned his children. I don't understand how people coming off of Father's Day, I think about, how could you be a father and not want to be with your children? It's like one of the most amazing gifts ever, ever is to be a father. Maybe you had a bad childhood. Have you ever asked yourself if I had a Bad childhood. And I'm now a father. How can I like, dude, what changes if you're a bad father, they're going to have a bad childhood. It continues and continues and continues. You're aware if you're listening to this show right now and you're a bad person, a bad parent, you're fucking aware. You got to do something about it. Because if you don't break the cycle, who's going to break the cycle? Who? The answer is simple. It's you. You're woke. You realize that you've messed up. It's okay. We've all messed up. We all have a story. We all have stories going on. We all have a past. But it's not about the past. It's about today and moving forward. Move your ego to the side. I did a dad podcast show yesterday and it was Father's Day, like I said the day before. And my son, my wife got this little book, 50 things about my dad or something like that. And my son has to fill in the blank. I can't read it here because I'll start crying. But like, I was in the sauna finishing up the night at 10 o' clock at night on Father's Day, kids are sleeping, everyone's sleeping, actually. And I'm reading this book and I begin to cry a lot. For 15 minutes, I cried. Keep in mind, a lot going on. I just turned 44, it's Father's Day, and I just got this cool book by my son. My daughter's not old enough to kind of write this stuff, but I had a thought and that's why I kept crying. And I'll try to share it with you, but it's hard because there's so much to do in a day. And everyone. What pisses me off and what gets me excited at the same time is I can see people that have it in them, but they're walking around like they're going to live forever. We're not going to live forever. So why do we act like that? Why do we. Why is our move so small? Why are we so afraid to say something that might get, you know, made fun of or whatever as adults? This is what I wrote down immediately. I said, I don't want to die. I have so much I want to give the world. I haven't even scratched the surface. On June 19, 2022. I love my family so much. And without that, I want to lead by example and live life to the fullest. I want to walk my son. I want to go to my Son's wedding. I want to walk my daughter down the aisle. And that's not promised. This could be my last podcast show I ever record. I might not wake up. I use death as motivation. I did an entire show about it. This shit's deep because it's real. See, I've helped a lot of people accomplish some pretty cool shit. Truth is, we're just getting started. But why people invest $50,000 a year to be in the DM family is not surface level basic bullshit. It's to connect and deepen and grow. If we can grow an individual, you can grow anything else that you're working on. Business is easy. Business is math, FYI. It's a formula. Just like cooking spaghetti is a formula. Baking the cake is a formula. Building a business is a formula. But there's no manual on being a great dad, a great husband, how to raise kids like all this shit. There's no real manuals. Yes, there's some instruction. There's some stuff that you can learn, but what they fail to mention is there's past to all this stuff. We all have a past. And we're all interpreting data at different frequencies, different levels. We take it in, but we're distributing it differently. I was asked on this dad podcast show because my dad works really hard. My mom and dad both have their whole life. And he said, does your dad work smart? And I said, well, it depends if you're asking me or him, because I believe my dad's worked very smart compared to where he's come from. My dad had, you know, he worked hard every day, but his father worked five jobs to raise nine kids. He worked hard. So my dad, next layer. Worked very smart. In consideration of that, where I'm at today in my life, I would consider I've worked extra smarter. Not because I'm smarter, because I saw the struggle my dad gave. And we have technology, we have big. I had a bigger vision than my dad. That's not a knock on my dad. My dad had his vision. We all have a vision. We all have that. And I'm not comparing it. But you have to understand where you're coming from to understand the question. And more importantly, you know, understand the answer. You're sitting here wondering, like, for me to make millions of dollars a year is fairly easy. I understand how to do it now. It wasn't always easy, but now it's ultra easy. Why? Well, I have a lot of relationships. I have a lot of knowledge of 26 years. 26 years, as I'm talking to you today. Exactly 26 years I've been in business 26 fucking years. To say I've been through a lot is an understatement. But I'm still standing, I'm still here. That says something in itself. Anybody that's been in business for 26 years understands the grit, the determination, the goals. Not just. And again, this was not. It's still not always easy. The bigger you get, the bigger problems. That's it. But where I'm going with this is what do you want? You. I would hate to see you comparing your life to other people your entire life. And never enjoy the fruits of your labor, the fruits of your effort. The late nights, the early mornings, the throat punches, the nuts kicks in, the nuts hitting the head back by a two by four in the back of the head when you're not, when you're least expecting it, and so on. Because you're like, man, I don't have what I want. I'm going for. See, I'm not trying to be a corporate raider. I'm not trying to be a corporate billionaire. I'm a lifestyle entrepreneur that will be worth billions of dollars in the future. My timeline's different than the average person. I'm in it forever. Some people are trying to get billions in five years. Cool. I'm not saying I wouldn't like to get there in five years, but there's trade offs to the journey. There's nothing. There's no business opportunity. There's nothing in my life that you could put in front of me that would have me take away from my children and my wife. Nothing. If it's not aligned with those pieces initially, I don't even look at it because my priorities are direct and very clear to myself first and foremost, as well as the other people that communicate with me. You can't Mark, come to Nicaragua. We're going to dig this well. We're going to make billions of dollars. Cool. I'm not good luck. Like, it's not about the money. It's not about any of that. Like, I want to make impact. I want to help other people succeed. I can do that from the comfort of my tree house. Why my kids play. I can do it from the pool. I can do it from my basement cigar bar. I can do it from hanging out here at the bocce court. I like, I've built my life for what I want. I don't give a if you want that or not. I really don't. I don't care if you think it's cool. Or not cool. You know what's really crazy about what I'm talking about when I say this shit? People actually like it more because they realize it's true. I'm not trying to be someone for you. I'm trying to be me, the better version of me. And my authenticity is ultimately, it's very real and that's attractive. I don't like fake people. I don't have time to be fake. If it quacks like a duck, it's a fucking duck, period. But we need to get focused on you. What do you want to be? I talked, I did a show about this, about being a number two. You understand there's many people that's become billionaires and many, many millionaires, multi millionaires, 100 millionaires that were number twos, number threes, number fives, number 20. Like, I think Microsoft created over 12,000 multimillionaires. Think about that. A company created over 12,000 multimillionAires. Ballmer was a multi billionaire number two guy. Steve Jobs had a number two guy worth billions of dollars. Wozniak, right? Think about that. Like, there's a lot of opportunity being number two. But some people, like, you're trying to, you know, create all these cool videos and all this content because you think that's what you want, but you know you don't want it, but you keep doing it. I'm not saying not to do stuff you're uncomfortable with, but like, do the stuff you're uncomfortable to make you the better person in the future. Don't do it for someone else, do it for you. I do know not everyone's cut out for what I do. I've realized that over the years. What is easy to me is very stressful to others. It's easy for me to make fast multi million dollar decisions fast, nanosecond fast. If I have the data, I make a move. The average person can't do that. That's the truth. They haven't worked their way that muscle to get to that point. Hiring, firing, oh, these are things I hate doing. I hate firing. But that's part of the journey. It's part of the. It's what I got to do. It is not pleasant. It's actually very sad. If you can't handle these emotions, you're going to have a rough time. And I'm not saying go self medicate with alcohol or drugs either, right? I probably did some of that back in the day, mostly with alcohol where I would over drink because I'm like, dude, I just Got to do it. I'm scared. I don't know what to do. And get caught up in the middle and wait six months before I actually did what I had to do. I learned from that. That does not happen anymore. There's a problem. We execute it and move on. You must. Once you understand your greater purpose, things get a little bit simpler. You have clear vision, very crystal clear focus. It's funny, I used to try to tell, like, when people would ask me what I did, oh, I'm a blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. Like, I try to prop up. Now it's like, dude, I'm just trying to build companies one day at a time. I'm not trying to be a big dog. I'm trying to be me. I'm excited to help people. I want to. Sometimes you got to share what you're doing. It sounds weird when I do podcast shows because you're thinking, all this guy does is talk about himself. No, dude, I only do that here to share authenticity with you, inner conversations with myself. Real. As I sit here, I think about the people that we can touch. Not just you, but through you. If I can help you become a better person, a better leader, a better doer, everything in your life gets better. You become a better father, better wife, better spouse. I want everyone to be better at everything they do. I really do. It's exciting for me to see, you know, as I'm. Because we're. Keep in mind, too, we're coming up to the event June 29th and 30th here in Cleveland. And if there's any ticket sales left, you can go see it@markevans DM.com forward/cleveland. But we'll have three. Over 300, 400 people there from all over the country, all over the world, actually. And these are all business entrepreneur people that want to grow and expand. They're all paying a thousand dollars each to be there. It'll change people's lives. I'm very conscious of that. It changes my life. How? Well, it's already changed my life because I. I was questioning if I could put at least 300 people in a room. I've never done it. I've done 200 and something, but I've never done 300. It was a stretch goal. We did it and we're going to add more than that. Changed my life, showed me what's possible, what my reach is like. And listen, folks, if you think selling 300 tickets is easy, I challenge you to do it. And if you can do it, that's awesome. It's not easy. I'm not in the seminar business. My team is not equipped to do seminars. That's not what we do. We're business builders. Doing seminars is a whole nother animal. Whole nother animal. It's a lot of moving parts, a lot of coordination. Plus, we finish off with a badass James Bond party on the for the 30th, for my birthday bash party, where 100% of nut proceeds go to charity. My goal is to raise at least $150,000 to charity. Last time we did 151. This year, I think we could hit way more. But times are different. So as my life changes, when I see what we're capable of. Not only that, as a leader, I see my team growing with me. I'm pushing them, they're pushing me. The vision's very crystal clear. We're here to help people. So if you're getting emails and texts from us, it's not because we are spamming you. It's because we're fucking paying attention to and you're not showing up. And we care about that because we know when you show up, you will change your life. It's a game changer. I've been to over 250 events in my life. Me personally, over 250 events. I used to go weekly in the beginning, weekly meet 10 people, 20 people, 50 people, two people, whatever. I've shown the up. Zoom's cool and all, but it's only zoom. Oh, I have so and so, dude. Until you meet someone face to face, break bread with them, connect with them, have a beer with them, get up to the bar, talk real life. Everything's very transactional and surface level. I love the relationship piece of the game. It's not easy. I send lots of gifts out every day. We send lots of, you know, we're talking to people every day. I want you to know I'm not just over here sitting hanging out in the treehouse doing dick. I'm hanging out in the treehouse working on a big picture vision, communicating with my teams, organizations, leading, connecting, collaborating, and expanding. So I want you to find out, what do you want? Discover that it will set you free. I want you to execute relentlessly every single day. See, I listened to that book by David Goggins, which is awesome. His message is powerful. It's not. It's undeniable. But I have zero fucking desire to be David Goggins. Zilch. I wouldn't trade a fucking fingernail to have his life. Yeah, maybe he's a badass. Cool. I like. What does that mean? See, I don't have the comparison syndrome. I was always told if you're. If you want one thing from the person, you bet. If you're not willing to trade 100% for 100%, stop thinking about it. That guy's been through some real shit. My question always is, when I listen to this, because I'm a little bit more mature now than I was, I ask myself, and again, this is not a knock against anybody. You should think about this, about me as well. But when I listen to David Goggins, is he running from something or running towards something? I don't know the answer. I've never even heard him talk about it. But based off of what I hear, because I know people have demonstration. He's running every day from something every day. I don't know if that's good or bad, but I'm not running from something. I'm running towards something. Yes. I don't have abs like him. Yes. I can't fucking run until my ball sack falls off. I can't do all that. I don't want to. I have zero desire to. Well, Mark, you don't like paying, man. Man, you're not dedicated. Cool. If that's what you think, that's cool. But what I've realized, like I said earlier, we all have a different path. I'm not trying to live someone else's path. I'm fucking forging my own path. I'm in the woods as we speak, and there's a lot of brush everywhere. I got the fucking machete and I'm chopping shit down to forge my own path. I could take other paths. It might be easier sometimes, but it's not my path. I want to forge my own path. I want to see what I'm capable of. I don't give a what you do. Goggins does. Priscilla does. Waylon does. They inspire me. I hope I inspire them. I hope I inspire you. You inspire me. But I want to. I want to work. I want to chop down and forge and drive, lead the way, show people there's a better life. My family's watching. My team's watching. I'm watching. When you do this, I truly believe and I'm very like. I'm sitting here in an amazing time of my life. I don't need or want anything, but I guess I do want. I want more life. I want more impact, but I don't need anything. I'm working on my health at a whole nother level. I'm working on businesses at a whole, like whole. Not if you only knew what's going on. And I'll be sharing as what's going on but we have some real shit going on. Life changing growth. It's not all showed up yet but it will just a matter of time. I do know a lot of my team members listen to these shows and I want you to know I'm at the, I'm at the wheel, I'm at the helm and I am full steam ahead.

I'll finish with this as I'm sitting here again, I can't read what's in the book my son wrote yet because I'm still emotional about it and I probably will be forever. But something I'm going to have my wife I told her were talking about, I was like this would be amazing to have the kids do this every year for both of us because you'd see the evolving, the evolution, see we know our kids are watching us, but we do. We know what they're seeing. That's a big difference. They're watching us, but their interpretation of what they see is what I read in the book that Mark gave me. To say I was proud is an understatement. It inspired me even more to know that I'm on the right path. They're watching. But who are they watching? Are you trying to be me? Trying to be Goggins? Trying to be someone else? Are they watching mom and dad? The mom and dad that they know is capable of so much more. We have a duty, if we're aware, like we are. If you're listening to the show, you're aware that there's another level and we need to get on it. One thing my son said, and I didn't even know he knew what it was, he's like, if my dad was a car, what kind of car would he be? My son said, a Dodge Ram, which is funny to me because I will ram my head through a wall to accomplish what I need to accomplish. He's watching. Don't be just a looky loo and just watching to watch. Watch. Execute. I want to see at the top. It's not lonely at the top, by the way. You just change your friends, you evolve your. Your network. It's never lonely at the top because there's someone always way higher than you. It's a lie people tell you it's lonely at the top or on the bottom. They're lonely. They're miserable. The top is amazing. You see, I'm sitting 200ft up. I see everything. It's not lonely up here. I'm ecstatic. The breeze is cooler, Trees are moving. I see a fox, see a deer running. Stream is rolling. Doesn't suck. But when you're on the bottom, you only see a small piece of the pie. I might see the stream or a deer. I'm not gonna see it all like I see it from here. So what point of view, what angle do you want to see life at? I prefer it on the top. How about you get to work? Let's go. Time thinking about you. Have an amazing day. With that said, make the day count.
