Going back to the Founding Fathers.
Let'S call for a moment, just for a moment here, let's call their gatherings, their meetings. Let's call that.
The Society of Secrets. Let's just do that for a moment. When those men got together and they had their secret meetings and they planned their strategies and their philosophies and their vision and how they were going to disseminate their vision and how they were going to convince the general populace.
How they were going to convince the man in the street, how they were going to achieve the tipping point.
Imagine their secret meetings and their gatherings and that. Let's just call it.
Their Society of Secrets. Now, when we do that.
I want you to imagine during their gatherings, during their meetings, their focus, their energy, their intensity.
What they knew was at stake, what they knew would happen if they didn't succeed, succeed where things were going to go, where they were headed, versus.
If they do succeed in their vision. They know what's at stake in their minds, and they share that with each other, their emotional connection.
And these people, as they got together, they focused on their success at a united level, eventually at a national level.
They wanted to do all that they could, spend their time.
Their energy, their focus. They put their historic and heroic efforts into this completely, totally.
Into what? Into their Society of Secrets. Tirelessly, voluntarily, without pause, without pay, without fixation on money.
