And if you want to check out some previous episodes, just go to purge and cb.com forward slash podcast. Once again, that's Christian cpe.com forward slash podcast, you can check out every single previous episode. So listen, one of the things I want to talk about today is like a super, this is gonna be really, really like you're asking me to make these solo episodes short to the point. And so I'm going to continue to make these shortened to the point. But one of the things that I want to address with those of you who are like me, recovering perfectionist, is especially when you set a goal on something like you have set your investing goal, your investing goal is to invest X amount or to invest by x date. Until we actually do whatever it is that we're attaining the goal. There's this tendency to feel like you still got so much to do, oh my gosh, there's so much to do. And, you know, recently I think we talked about the different books and things like that. But one of the perspectives that I took away, not too long ago that I want to share with you is as you're starting to move towards a goal, like you've you've set your objective, recovering perfectionist, or maybe you're not a recovering perfectionist, and you realise that you need to move towards a goal, but you feel like you still have so much work to do. Because, you know, before you made your very first investment as an accredited investor, in a 506 C syndication, you knew that you had to get your accredited investor verification, you knew that you had to vet your sponsor, you knew that you had to find out all of the information, and it still feels like there's so much to do. One of the ways that you can help alleviate some of this stress is to recognise how far you've come versus how far you still have to go. Right? Let's imagine that you have to do 10 things, and you're on eight. But you're you've done eight things, but you're still focused and stressed on the fact that you still have two more things to do. But sometimes if you just know that sometimes if you just take a second and you just look back, and you realise, hey, listen, you've already done eight of the things you're that much closer to getting to the goal, getting to the objective. That's one of the things like it's just very simple. It's not about overcomplicating things, it's about recognising and acknowledging yourself, and your team for all of the different steps that you've taken to get to this point in the journey. That's the point. It's not about stressing over the next two. And the next two, they may be really, really important points that you have to get over. But also help your mind help your heart and recognise that, hey, listen, you've already accomplished a lot you and your team, you've gotten these first eight steps, let's just we just have two more to go. Right. It's about putting the perspective on things. And so I know sometimes you can constantly think, oh my gosh, I still have so far to go, I still have so far to go. But just take a look back and see how far you've come as well. That's going to help you to feel the momentum to recognise that there's just a few more steps to take in that you've come so far. And whether that's making your very first investment that's making your first trip around the world that is making your first trip to a local market, whatever it is, you've taken the steps to get to much closer to your goal to your objective. So I know that one of these things that happens especially a lot of times with us recovering perfectionist, we get stuck in our own minds. But don't think about how far you have to go think about how far you've already come. So this is one of those really simple like I said, reading, talking to friends and just wanted to share that perspective with you, especially for those of you who are recovering perfectionist. And speaking of which, like if those of you that are also you're a high paid professional, you're continuing to have Uncle Sam in your pocket and you know It's tax time and you recognise how much that bite hurts because you've done all the work and it really doesn't feel so cool to Bring home half of what your labour was. So, if you're thinking about something to do, and you want to realise that you've come a long way, because you've continued to be here, you've continued to watch continue to listen, I would say just taking one more step to the first ncp.com forward slash going long.
