Like how would you end up going to part of that conversation with a new doc?
8:25
I would do it in two ways.
8:27
One, I'd love to reference Alex Hermosi.
8:29
He's a great mentor and role model.
8:32
He's all about just get your reps in and make the mistakes first, right? The more mistakes you make, then the more you'll learn and you'll just be better.
8:39
So if you already know you're going to screw up in some way, just go ahead and get that out of the way so then you can learn from that.

4:20
right? Like my parents came from a third world country, no English, no technology, anything really.
4:26
And so they were like, you have to be better because you have no excuse not to.
4:29
So for my kids, that's what I would want to instill.
4:31
If I'm as smart or successful as I am, you can't be lower than that because you're already going to have some money from your dad in the beginning.
