Speaker 1:

this is the thing, real stuff I get myself promised for anything else because, say I, no matter what it is, I'm gonna make this work. I have to. No, I will like my words. I have to put the work, I have to put the hours. And speaking about hours, I was listening to whatever podcast the other day and they have these psychologists on the show where he talked about the fundamental rule of attraction and what he said was people want what they want, but not what wants them. And I really had to step back and let that information sink in for a moment because it really made me think, it really made me question me and question and sort of relate my previous experiences to what he said and what I realized is basically that we always look for a version of us in someone. What do you say about this?

Speaker 2:

I will relate to that by different aspects of your life and different aspects and stages and experiences in your life, the equally will impact on your choices. What I mean by that. When I was 20, I was looking. I wasn't looking for something like a long-term relationship at that point because I was still young. I still want to see the world, see what's out there, gain my experiences, learn things. Of course, I want it in the future to have that this is the balance however, sometimes when we look for a relationship, we're not quite clear about how we want things and what kind of relationship we would like to have, and what is actually in our mind and what we're saying. Do they match?

Speaker 1:

I think that you're talking from the female perspective, because you never know what you want. Yeah that's why it's more complicated okay, that makes a lot of sense now. Thank you right. Coming back to our show. So it's very true, though. It is very true because if you do it really well, know what you want, then you're very clear to what you say and what your expectations are to someone. But when you're young, you don't really know what you are and your whole, your whole presence in this world. You don't have any experiences. You don't know what to do, what job to choose, where do you see yourself, how can you choose your perfect partner is nearly impossible, and I think there's a lot of things that you should take into consideration, but for, let's say, in a long term relationship, a key factor is that maybe a small things that you can do to make that time up or be able to. You know, when you say I don't hide, for I don't have time for to do ex-activities, especially in the long term, then you need to make that effort. Even if it's like a small text throughout the day, just okay, just checking in how's your day, you know. Even the small justice, I find that the more the most critical ones and the most important ones as well. You know, Is the things that we have to, you know, pray someone for what they've done, because If you, if you agree with me that In a long-term relationship we find comfortable, find someone very comfortable and find someone very, we have them, you know, as guarantee. Well, we have this person anyway and we stop giving them the right attention, you know, the right affection, and this is, you know, this is the start of the downfall and because you take we take them for granted.

Speaker 2:

That's why, when you're in that state, you are like too comfortable in your skin and too confident that you've done your part and now you don't have to do anything to build up in their relationship, because you know that this person is not going to go anywhere.

Speaker 1:

For sure, and I was listening to a podcast Jordan Peterson and H3 podcast they had the other day and they did have this exact conversation about those topics and one of the the interesting things that they mentioned was the If you don't have time for someone, tell them why, because for me to tell you why I don't have time for you know X thing, it's different to just show you that I just I'm not interested in you or spending any time with you. Do you see the difference, the dynamic on that?

Speaker 2:

Yeah, because if you don't explain the reasons, then it might come across that you're giving like cover it up, okay, and and it won't come up like has been on a CDM for sure, and that is very important, especially when you run your own business, when you are an entrepreneur.

Speaker 1:

When you don't have time, take me, for example I'll pull myself out there. You know I'm doing something, I'm doing this. You see me, I'm working 24, seven, every waking hour, seven out seven. I don't go out anymore. I don't. I don't remember was the last time. You know, I don't remember how I was to have fun, because all I do is work, work, work and I mean you know that's part of me, who I am, because this is the road I chose and I I very much enjoy what I do, because this is how I expected Myself to be in the future. So I had to make a decision and this is this is my decision. But coming back to the relationship thing, is very difficult to be in a relationship where you have your own thing going on, especially early days when you're building something from scratch Because it requires so much attention, so much time. You don't have enough time and I don't see Me to have any time to involve someone else in my life. Because here's the thing I don't want to put them under these circumstances to have Expectations from me because if I have a lot of time, expectations from me, because if I don't have time for anybody, then it won't be fair for someone to be in my life right now. However, having said that, you know that's always. You know I'm not gonna convince someone to be in my life. If they want to be in my life, that is fine, but they need to understand the and what kind of state you are.

Speaker 2:

That I am, you know.

Speaker 1:

I can't be out all the time. I can't be on my phone every time I wake up to 30 plus messages every single day. It's impossible. I don't even have time for my family later on. Along and Understand is very important to say those things to someone, and Especially if someone's like me out there that they can relate. It's difficult to find that Right person to go along with your things on how you go through, on their life and to understand really, because sometimes it's not.

Speaker 2:

It's not because you don't want to, you don't want to give them your time, it's just because you have limited time, because you have, you've set your goals high and your expectations and you're trying to achieve the things that you want from you.

Speaker 1:

For sure, and I think another, another interesting question is what does make someone successful and how is that? How is it a successful person? Is it money? Is a fame? Is a freedom? Is it Whatever it is, whatever you you know make of, because we all have a different version of being successful. I Can be successful just by spending time with my family. I can be successful where I'm traveling all the time and I feel free. So I believe everybody has a different version of being successful in their own lives.

Speaker 2:

Yes, a different translation in their minds, as we're all individuals and we all want different things from ourselves. And, for example, for me is Developing my career all my goals. So these goals are different for every single person out there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, for sure. I mean you can't judge someone based on what they do. I take I listen to my previous podcast because I really want to know the things I'm doing Right, the things I'm doing wrong. Any feedback is appreciated, so make sure you go comment on on our YouTube channel. So, yeah, you know, I, I review myself and I see the things that I'm doing wrong. Is is a vocal image, is a you know, anything else production wise. And One of the things that really helped me and great mentor of mine is Alex Ramosy, and I saw his presentation the other day that he was talking about how you can make so much money that you start questioning making money anymore, and one of the interesting things that he said is how you Proprietary, or Proprietary yourself, the things that you say and we are not here to. You know, just stop pointing fingers and and be these people on how to do this and you should do that and you should follow Of this example. You know, because there's a lot of gurus who's just pointing fingers and then they almost like Shaitanayi and say you're doing this wrong in your life, you don't deserve this, you should do this and I think this is very big. It's it and I don't want to. I don't want to say this is very big, it's it, and I don't want to. I don't want to sound like that, and instead, what I promise to myself and promise to you guys is I'm going to change our reality. I'm going to change the way that we do things here and, from now on, I'm going to start putting as much value as possible because here, this is what we're here for and I'm going to try to put myself through those experiences, or at least talk through experiences that I've gone through previously, and instead of Say how you should do this, I'm going to say how I did this, because you know there's a lot of people that might find themselves to be related to the things that I've gone through, or if not, then that's, that's fine. You know? The last thing that I want to say, I want to do, is just to be that person to tell you, you know.

Speaker 2:

What to do. What to do?

Speaker 1:

Because it's not my job. You know, it's nobody's job. That's the thing. And another great thing that he said during the presentation Is the actual steps that you take as a Interpreend your guy or girl, whatever and the more that he explained those things, the more that made sense. You know, because everybody, no matter the industry, no matter what you're doing in your business, everybody's going through the same six steps. Kind of like principal concept, kind of like principles us does exactly right. So the first step was for an informed optimism. Which is an informed optimism? Is you see something on the Internet or you, you, you listen to someone and you sort of have this image they, they sell you the dream that they sell you the vision. For the sake of this example, I'm gonna name drop shipping, for example, because I've done it myself, I know a few things so I can tell how I did it. Okay, so you see someone who's selling you the vision and you're getting hooked by this. Okay, make you. They say that you can make ten G's a month and you know, just easy money and all this stuff. Two months in, you find yourself in the informed pessimism, which means that you understand now the difficulties that has. You know how difficult is to you know, start something your own and actually make money takes a lot of discipline, takes a lot of time. Sometimes luck Takes place as well, but it's not. I don't believe in like. I believe in my skills and my capabilities and the the amount of time and effort I put in and actually on the quality work that I'm doing as well. Then you find yourself in crisis, crisis of meaning. You start questioning yourself. Six months in, you don't see any results does it work. Does it work, it does he. You know, it's just. My wasting my time, my wasting my time, draining my finances. What am I doing my life? Should I spend more time with my family, my kids? What am I doing? What should I do? Then you find this next top thing, as someone else appropriated on the Internet, on how you can make easy money. Everything is easy nowadays. Everything is like, you know, do five minutes at work for for a month and make A hundred grand. And you know, I, you know, just retire in his and he's never. That case is never the case. You find yourself crush and burn what is crushing burn. You do something else all over again, following the same patterns. Then If you say that, no matter what, I'm gonna push forward, no matter what it is, no matter what it takes, I'm gonna. I'm not giving, I'm not gonna give up, I'm gonna be here, push forward through all the through, all the difficult times, throughout the obstacles, and then you find that you are in the informed of decision. Okay. And then the longer that you're pushing through and one thing, the more success you gonna find out in your career. And this is what Alex was he said in his presentation. By the way, it's not my words, so for any copyright issues, okay. So that's out there and it's really, it is very true, because if you put some efforts in nine things, they're never gonna work out no you can't be the person to say I'm just gonna wait until one of the nine things I do starts going, you know, start making money, and then I'm gonna focus all my time to this thing so I can make money, instead of what he said was pick one thing and do just one, that one thing and do it good which makes sense which makes tons of sense because you're gonna give you a hundred percent or one thing and instead of giving 5% there, 10% there, 5% there and just not be completely hundred percent yeah, and for me, you know you have to do what it takes and if you don't have strong foundations, you're never gonna make it. Why? Because you, after the next bit of time, you're gonna start questioning yourself exactly but, cross and burn, gonna start questioning yourself is you're gonna start convincing yourself? That is never gonna work and this is this is the most important and critical part of our lives, in the part of the entrepreneurship life. Whoever out there is following the same footsteps and for me, this is. This is where we are coming from and this is where we, you know, focusing on and this is what we're gonna do. But I asked myself and I said no matter what, no matter what it is, no matter the conditions I promise myself. And I gave myself this is the thing, real stuff. I gave myself promise before anything else because, say I'm, no matter what it is, I'm gonna make this work. I have to know I will mark my words.
