A short motivational/business monologue where the speaker (a mentor) describes teaching 14‑year‑old students the simple distinction between positive expectation ("Mr. Happy Face") and negative expectation ("Mr. Grumpy Face"). He recommends practicing a "happy face" habit—smiling at people for a week—to become more valuable on teams, and links this mindset to improved productivity and better time-trading ('buying back your TAM').

I mentor these 14 year old kids for free. It's my King's Club program. I remember the first day I just taught them the simple concept of positive expectation versus negative expectation. You got two people. Mr. Happy Face. Mr. Grumpy Face. Who do you want to help? Happy Face? How about we just start with that simple premise of trying to be a happy person? So right now you might be neutral because you're an introvert and you don't smile. I would encourage you to smile at every person you see for the next week. Build that happy face character. That's valuable because being a happy person on a team is actually valuable. And then you can add the skills to make yourself actually create and be more productive. But I just think that is the essence of buying back your TAM is being a better time trader.
