When I was younger than 25, I thought that I knew everything, that I was like a young entrepreneur, and I know how to do this, I know how to do that. And occasionally I'd seek mentorship or coaching, but I still kind of thought that I just knew better. And then as I got older, I realized that I was an idiot and then started really thinking in a different way of like, you know, how can I learn from this person? Or what can I take away from this lesson? And so I started deeply investing in coaching, reading a ton more, and going to experiences that I would say put you out of your element. So that could be a mastermind. That could be something that has you thinking in a different way and sometimes, like, making these big investments, especially for some of these groups that cost tens of thousands, in some cases over a hundred thousand dollars a year to do. You don't necessarily see what the exact outcome is at that point in time, but there might be a connection that you make at that time with someone, or it could even be something as small as an idea that, you know, sometimes I go to these events, I don't even know what I'm necessarily seeking from it, but I'll just go. And then something amazing comes out of it. And if you have that open mind of, like, what is the possibility these opportunities will meet you and find you.
