i paid $5k for this... here u go

Last week was very unlike me. I was lost. I was stuck. I had no direction.

It happens to the best of us. Sometimes we ask ourselves…

"Is this really what I want to do?"

The last time I asked myself that question I was sitting in a college lecture.

A few moments later I made my decision, walked out, and never went back.

I guess that paid off lol.

But what I was struggling with this week was different, instead of having one option to leave the rat race, I had too many options.

When you have the experience I have, you look at the world from a different lens, you can see opportunities others can't.

It's a super power that made me millions, but this week it paralyzed me.

Usually, I'd ask a friend what they thought to validate my insane ideas, but this time I sounded like I needed to go to a mental hospital lol.

Nobody understood me.

So I did what any regular guy would do… I paid the smartest person I knew $5k for an hour of his time.

This guy has 20+ years in the game, made tens of millions (probably more), and he's old enough to be my dad lmao.

I learned so much on this call… it was insane.

Obviously, I can't leak it all here because I'm not allowed to, BUT there's one takeaway I can give you…

And I know it's something you struggle with all the time too…

It's permission.

There was a point in the call where he asked me…

"You paid me $5k to get my permission didn't you?"

I said, yes.

Then he gave me a question to ask myself when I need permission…

"Who am I to not give myself permission?"

As long as you feel really good about something, ask yourself that question, even if it feels like a crazy idea…

Even if you know other people will judge you.

Do what you know is best for you.

Because at the end of the day nobody actually knows who you are.

Not your mom, dad, grandfather, grandmother, brother, sister, NONE of them do.

You do.

When I dropped out of college my heart sank into my ass.

I was shaking in fear because I thought my family would turn against me.

Now, they couldn't be more proud of me.

And if they have anything to say… I have proof to back up my decision.

So with that being said…

Start the business, ask the girl, book the trip, buy the car, pay the mentor…

JUST DO IT.

See ya in the next one,

Brady.
