Overwhelmingly the problem I see with folks is they have imposttor syndrome and they feel like they are not qualified to talk about the thing that they want to advise in. And so it creates basically their identity is not aligned with the thing that they're trying to do. And so when you don't have aligned identity, you don't see yourself as the kind of person who achieves the thing that you're going to do, then you don't take the actions required to actually achieve the thing. And and the second piece of this is that a lot of people just say they want more money or they want more freedom, but they don't actually know what they want their life to look like. They have some vague idea that, oh, I want to retire to a beach or something, which is wildly unsatisfactory. If you ever do that, you can just ask unemployed people like how good they feel about a situation. It it's just not what people actually want. And so what I want to give them a set of tools to is think about one, how do I create the identity around being the person who achieves the thing. Two, how do I set out my day in a way so that I'm living my my ideal life dayto day and not at some random point in the future. And three, how I organize my time in a way where the most important things get done first. Because most people, they get one client, they start working way too hard to make that client happy because they're used to being in a job where they're just trying to please their boss. And then all of that basically is where their business starts and ends is they get a part-time job essentially and they don't actually build a consistent business. They just have built a part of Dhama.
