People ask me, don't you have that fear where they'll say, well, of course not. I've done it, you know, 8 billion times. But the real reason is I wasn't scared in the beginning. And the reason I wasn't scared is because I was obsessed on the audience and what do they need and what I believe passionately I can serve them with. Yes. And I'm not there. Right. I call it uptime. When you're in uptime, I'm out here feeling you. You see a speaker that loses the audience for a moment or completely. They go in their head and they're trying to figure out what to do. They're self conscious and they're done, or they're upstream. Then it's about them. Exactly. How am I? What do people think of me? Yeah, that's it. That's different than am I getting through to that? Very different. Or am I pursuing the quest. That's right. Or how far along are we in getting them to where we're committed to here? Like, what are they really experiencing? Right. But my preparation starts with physical for the same reasons, I believe physique you wrote in your first book. And I've been teaching it for, you know, since I was 17, 19 years old. I guess I call it physiology first. You call it shoulders back. Right. It's like the physiology has to be created first in me or I can't take you there. If I want to touch you, I got to be touched. Yeah, yeah. If I want to move you, I got to be moved. So first there's the endurance aspect, which is, you know, I do oxygen deprivation. I do everything you can imagine you dream of, of exercise. So I can get up there and sustain for 12 or 13 hours, for four days or six days. So that's one part. Then people ask my wife, what's something about Tony that no one realizes? She said, how hard he prepares. Because I believe that loading, my commitment to be the best I can be to deliver for these souls is I gotta be clear on the outcomes. And I have multiple outcomes with multiple days and pieces. And I have primary outcomes for each day and even segments of the day. It's like, okay, these are my primary outcomes. And then I close my eyes and I focus on who's there and why they're there. If I'm going to a courtroom, why do you close your eyes? Because I want to see it. I want to feel it. I'm a see feel person. I see it and I can feel it immediately. So I see what the result needs. I see where the audience is, and then I think about what makes everybody unique.
