A spouse who believes in you is the biggest life hack people don't talk about. Neil is 100% on point about this. So I owned a business for about two years before I got married. And then it's been almost a year now since I've been married. So I've kind of seen what it's like on either side of it. And my God, the amount of times that I just am, you know, defeated, I've been beat up, you know, I just took seven sales calls, and I couldn't close a single one of them. And I come back home, and my wife is, like, not even fazed by it because she believes in me. Like, she believes in me when I don't believe in myself. She has bigger dreams for me than I have for myself. Myself. She has more faith in my ability to fulfill those dreams than I have in myself. And as much as I might be arrogantly confident, a lot of the times, it's not all the time. And sometimes you need that person to back you up and believe in you when you can't believe in yourself. And having that as your spouse, the person you love the most in this world, this is an incredible thing.
