And I know that that's something we talk 30 00:01:19,680 --> 00:01:21,000 Speaker 1: about all the time. So I thought I would bring 31 00:01:21,080 --> 00:01:22,720 Speaker 1: him in for show and tell and we could get 32 00:01:22,720 --> 00:01:23,000 Speaker 1: to it. 33 00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,080 Speaker 2: I love it, great idea.

Anybody can do it, 37 00:01:36,319 --> 00:01:38,640 Speaker 3: and at the end of that process you get a 38 00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 3: happiness score on a zero to one hundred point scale. 39 00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:44,959 Speaker 3: And what the score actually means, it's not a measure 40 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,240 Speaker 3: of your emotional level of happiness at the time you 41 00:01:48,280 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 3: take the test. 42 00:01:49,400 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 2: What it is. 43 00:01:50,120 --> 00:01:52,920 Speaker 3: It's a measure of the strength of the structures that 44 00:01:52,960 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 3: you have in your life that have the capacity to 45 00:01:55,760 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 3: produce happiness. 46 00:01:56,680 --> 00:01:58,560 Speaker 2: Okay, yeah, let's go. 47 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:00,240 Speaker 1: It's cool stuff. Do you want to ask them to 48 00:02:00,240 --> 00:02:01,920 Speaker 1: seven questions? I mean, you won't get the score unless 49 00:02:01,960 --> 00:02:03,640 Speaker 1: you actually do it online because it's from like A 50 00:02:03,800 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: to F. Oh, but I can tell you what my 51 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:07,480 Speaker 1: happiness score is. 52 00:02:07,480 --> 00:02:10,120 Speaker 2: Any guesses one out of one hundred? 53 00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:16,560 Speaker 1: Yeah, one to one hundred three. I had a ninety 54 00:02:16,639 --> 00:02:21,720 Speaker 1: five nine. Yeah, what we hold on? Why are you also. 55 00:02:21,600 --> 00:02:23,360 Speaker 2: Shocked by that? No? No, I can see that you were 56 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 2: very happy. She's She's one of the happiest people I know. 57 00:02:25,760 --> 00:02:26,520 Speaker 3: He's always happy. 58 00:02:26,680 --> 00:02:27,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, I can see why. 59 00:02:27,760 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: But I want to ask you something. 60 00:02:29,040 --> 00:02:32,120 Speaker 2: Did you talk to Laton about how you answered and 61 00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:35,240 Speaker 2: he sort of described you why those answers? 62 00:02:35,400 --> 00:02:38,520 Speaker 1: No, we haven't even gotten to all of all of 63 00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:39,200 Speaker 1: my answers yet. 64 00:02:39,320 --> 00:02:41,160 Speaker 3: Yeah, we haven't done that yet. I figured we do 65 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:43,360 Speaker 3: some of that on air at some point. But yeah, 66 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:47,120 Speaker 3: the There's seven questions are very simple, but it talks 67 00:02:47,120 --> 00:02:51,200 Speaker 3: about things like, do you have meaningful relationships in your life? 68 00:02:51,680 --> 00:02:55,480 Speaker 3: You know, do you belong to meaningful groups? What is 69 00:02:55,520 --> 00:02:58,519 Speaker 3: the value that you bring to those groups? Do you 70 00:02:58,560 --> 00:03:01,920 Speaker 3: feel your life has a purpose? How are you on 71 00:03:02,000 --> 00:03:04,239 Speaker 3: achieving your purpose in life? So these are some of 72 00:03:04,240 --> 00:03:07,200 Speaker 3: the questions that come out that are asked, and your 73 00:03:07,200 --> 00:03:11,840 Speaker 3: responses determine your score. Now, knowing Meta and knowing her 74 00:03:11,880 --> 00:03:14,000 Speaker 3: life and knowing what she's doing, when she told me 75 00:03:14,040 --> 00:03:15,720 Speaker 3: she got a really high score, I'm not really surprised 76 00:03:15,720 --> 00:03:18,000 Speaker 3: because I know she has really deep connections with people, 77 00:03:18,040 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 3: and I know how she is so not surprised at 78 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,239 Speaker 3: all by her score. Her score is better than my score. 79 00:03:22,320 --> 00:03:23,520 Speaker 3: I score around in eighty four. 80 00:03:25,120 --> 00:03:27,320 Speaker 2: Why so sad at all? 81 00:03:27,680 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 3: It's just the number two. 82 00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:29,440 Speaker 2: At the end of the day. 83 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 3: The most important thing is to take the question, you know, 84 00:03:34,120 --> 00:03:37,240 Speaker 3: take the quiz, answer the questions, and see which one 85 00:03:37,240 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 3: of these ping you as you know what, I've kind 86 00:03:40,240 --> 00:03:43,840 Speaker 3: of like not been giving as much as I could 87 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:46,360 Speaker 3: to the groups that I belong to. Maybe I should 88 00:03:46,440 --> 00:03:50,240 Speaker 3: start thinking about that. Or gratitude being another one. It's like, 89 00:03:50,280 --> 00:03:52,880 Speaker 3: you know, I've been going around the world and maybe 90 00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 3: thinking about myself a lot and the things that are 91 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:58,960 Speaker 3: affecting me, not really having my intenna open for all 92 00:03:59,040 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 3: the other, you know, people who may not be in 93 00:04:01,400 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 3: a situation that I'm in, and being grateful for that 94 00:04:04,960 --> 00:04:07,440 Speaker 3: and potentially doing something to help as well. 95 00:04:07,680 --> 00:04:10,280 Speaker 2: I definitely would encourage everyone hearing this to go to 96 00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:12,440 Speaker 2: the website and take the test. And so rather than 97 00:04:12,440 --> 00:04:18,360 Speaker 2: you asking these questions, talk latent about the findings that 98 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:24,560 Speaker 2: led you to these questions. Obviously meaningful relationships, being a 99 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 2: part of a group, what is your value in that group? 100 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 2: These kinds of things, Where did you come up with 101 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:33,679 Speaker 2: the findings and the answers. Crazy story. 102 00:04:33,760 --> 00:04:37,720 Speaker 3: So it was during COVID my kids were separated from 103 00:04:37,839 --> 00:04:40,280 Speaker 3: their friends, extended family. It's just a crazy time for 104 00:04:40,440 --> 00:04:43,160 Speaker 3: kids adults. It was just like bonkers. Everybody knows that. 105 00:04:43,600 --> 00:04:48,040 Speaker 3: So I saw that their happiness, that their emotions, their 106 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:50,240 Speaker 3: affect was just off, and I wanted to have a 107 00:04:50,320 --> 00:04:52,919 Speaker 3: conversation with them about it. But I didn't want it 108 00:04:52,920 --> 00:04:55,560 Speaker 3: to be like a lecture of like Dad's telling me 109 00:04:55,760 --> 00:04:57,240 Speaker 3: of how to live my life kind of a thing. 110 00:04:57,520 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 3: So I was like, hey, guys, let's see if we 111 00:04:59,560 --> 00:05:02,200 Speaker 3: can come up with an equation for happiness. It I 112 00:05:02,320 --> 00:05:04,200 Speaker 3: just it came out of nowhere. It's not like I 113 00:05:04,279 --> 00:05:07,320 Speaker 3: planned it or anything. So we're sitting there, they're throwing 114 00:05:07,360 --> 00:05:11,760 Speaker 3: out ideas. I'm quarterbacking it. At the end of the conversation, 115 00:05:11,839 --> 00:05:13,520 Speaker 3: I look down at what I have and I'm like, 116 00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:17,920 Speaker 3: this is actually pretty impactful. But it was very, very rudimentary. 117 00:05:18,279 --> 00:05:21,640 Speaker 3: So a week later, I'm part of a business networking 118 00:05:21,640 --> 00:05:24,239 Speaker 3: group and I was an educational coordinator. So every week, 119 00:05:24,320 --> 00:05:26,320 Speaker 3: out of an hour and a half meeting, I had 120 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,080 Speaker 3: to do a four minute educational topic on anything I 121 00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:32,360 Speaker 3: want business life anything that could be beneficial to the members. 122 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,360 Speaker 3: So I took that week to kind of polish it 123 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:36,160 Speaker 3: up a little bit. It was still very rudimentary, but 124 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:40,560 Speaker 3: I did that presentation on your happiness equation. I was 125 00:05:40,600 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 3: blown away. There's forty people in the chapter. I've known 126 00:05:42,960 --> 00:05:46,320 Speaker 3: these people for a very long time, and almost every 127 00:05:46,360 --> 00:05:49,279 Speaker 3: single one of them called me, texted me, emailed me, 128 00:05:49,400 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 3: came up to me afterward and said how impactful it 129 00:05:51,560 --> 00:05:54,720 Speaker 3: was to them. And after having that kind of response, 130 00:05:54,800 --> 00:05:57,600 Speaker 3: I was like, man, I gotta probably do something with this. 131 00:05:57,640 --> 00:05:59,960 Speaker 3: And that was about three and a half years ago. 132 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:03,080 Speaker 3: Four years at this point book was written, book towards 133 00:06:03,120 --> 00:06:04,960 Speaker 3: had trying to get the word out. 134 00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:07,080 Speaker 2: That's the backstorre. Wow, here he. 135 00:06:07,080 --> 00:06:09,360 Speaker 1: Is, so how happy do you think you are? 136 00:06:10,040 --> 00:06:14,960 Speaker 2: Well? You know, well, if I use the sample questions 137 00:06:14,960 --> 00:06:17,800 Speaker 2: that were given a second ago, I think I've got 138 00:06:17,839 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 2: some work to do. Without giving it a number, absolutely, 139 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 2: I think and all of those different questions you were asking, uh, okay, 140 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:29,080 Speaker 2: I could do better. There give us some of the 141 00:06:29,160 --> 00:06:30,359 Speaker 2: questions again if you don't. 142 00:06:30,200 --> 00:06:32,800 Speaker 3: Mind, Yeah, so real quick. First one is are your 143 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:34,000 Speaker 3: basic humanity's being met? Yes? 144 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:34,440 Speaker 2: Or no? 145 00:06:34,760 --> 00:06:37,120 Speaker 3: Second one is you do do you belong to any 146 00:06:37,240 --> 00:06:44,240 Speaker 3: meaningful groups that meet regularly? Yes or no? Do you 147 00:06:44,839 --> 00:06:46,560 Speaker 3: a million percent accounts. 148 00:06:46,200 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: Even if they pay you to be here. 149 00:06:47,839 --> 00:06:49,599 Speaker 3: Even if they pay you to be here sometimes for 150 00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,320 Speaker 3: people like the people you work with, that it's like 151 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:53,960 Speaker 3: a meaningful group. It has to be meaningful to you. 152 00:06:54,200 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 2: It's very meaningful to me. Yeah, so they stop. You're 153 00:06:59,440 --> 00:07:02,280 Speaker 2: the only things about makes me unhappy? 154 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:03,320 Speaker 3: Yeah? 155 00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:03,640 Speaker 2: Yeah. 156 00:07:03,680 --> 00:07:06,240 Speaker 3: So the next one is on an A plus to 157 00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:08,839 Speaker 3: F scale. How do you rate the value that you 158 00:07:08,880 --> 00:07:13,040 Speaker 3: bring to those groups? You know what? 159 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:17,040 Speaker 2: At least it gets you to think exactly. Think your 160 00:07:17,120 --> 00:07:19,680 Speaker 2: value is different every day, don't you think some days 161 00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:22,840 Speaker 2: to day plus some day we're n f I, Daniel, 162 00:07:22,880 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 2: do you ever come in here and go, you know what, 163 00:07:24,640 --> 00:07:27,760 Speaker 2: maybe I'm not contributing enough today? Of course, I think 164 00:07:27,760 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 2: we all do, I know, not me. Honestly, it's how 165 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 2: you perceive your value, not how others perceive your value. 166 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:43,520 Speaker 2: How you just want to make sure see your value honestly. 167 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,640 Speaker 3: Honestly is important to self examination. So the more honestly 168 00:07:46,640 --> 00:07:48,640 Speaker 3: you are with yourself, the better you know your potential 169 00:07:48,680 --> 00:07:49,280 Speaker 3: results are. 170 00:07:49,360 --> 00:07:52,000 Speaker 2: Wow. Okay, because these are the things we don't typically 171 00:07:52,000 --> 00:07:54,840 Speaker 2: think about. I don't think about my value to a group. No, 172 00:07:55,320 --> 00:07:56,720 Speaker 2: just going there to the group and we do our 173 00:07:56,720 --> 00:07:58,400 Speaker 2: thing and I leave. I don't think about the value 174 00:07:58,640 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 2: that's left there. It would make me try to be 175 00:08:00,840 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 2: more valuable. 176 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:04,440 Speaker 3: Sure, And it's for the It's for the groups that 177 00:08:04,480 --> 00:08:06,200 Speaker 3: are important to you. I'm in all types of groups. 178 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:09,800 Speaker 3: Some might in just because for various situations I had no, 179 00:08:10,160 --> 00:08:12,640 Speaker 3: you know, decision to be in it. But it's only 180 00:08:12,680 --> 00:08:14,920 Speaker 3: for the groups that are important to you that this 181 00:08:15,000 --> 00:08:17,240 Speaker 3: question applies. If a group's not important to you, it 182 00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:19,640 Speaker 3: doesn't matter your value. If the group is important to you, 183 00:08:20,080 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 3: then your value is very important. 184 00:08:22,200 --> 00:08:25,320 Speaker 2: Okay, what's the weather for? What are the other four? 185 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 2: And then we need I want to get to the 186 00:08:26,600 --> 00:08:28,200 Speaker 2: website because I want everyone to go visit you. 187 00:08:28,240 --> 00:08:33,559 Speaker 3: But sure, please going to blow up my website? 188 00:08:29,960 --> 00:08:34,760 Speaker 2: Which? All right? 189 00:08:34,840 --> 00:08:37,480 Speaker 3: So the fourth one is on an A plus the 190 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,680 Speaker 3: F scale. How would you rate your gratitude? Okay? 191 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:41,920 Speaker 2: Okay? 192 00:08:42,040 --> 00:08:44,760 Speaker 3: The fifth one is when a meaningful situation does not 193 00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,640 Speaker 3: go as expected negative impact on your emotions. Last, and 194 00:08:48,679 --> 00:08:51,840 Speaker 3: now you have three options short time, moderate time. 195 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:52,440 Speaker 2: Or long time. 196 00:08:52,600 --> 00:08:56,640 Speaker 3: Okay, that one trips me up. Okay, full disclosure to 197 00:08:58,120 --> 00:09:00,000 Speaker 3: sixth one is do you believe your life has a purpose? 198 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:03,360 Speaker 3: And the seventh and final one is on an A 199 00:09:03,480 --> 00:09:06,079 Speaker 3: plus to f scale, how would you rate the value? 200 00:09:06,679 --> 00:09:08,800 Speaker 3: How would you rate your progress to achieving your purpose 201 00:09:08,800 --> 00:09:09,120 Speaker 3: in life? 202 00:09:10,360 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 2: Wow? Those are also happen very thought provoking at very least. 203 00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:16,280 Speaker 1: So if you don't find purpose in life, then that 204 00:09:16,360 --> 00:09:17,880 Speaker 1: last one is going to be a doozy too. 205 00:09:18,360 --> 00:09:21,240 Speaker 3: Well, interesting that you bring that up. I accounted for 206 00:09:21,240 --> 00:09:24,440 Speaker 3: that because I know there's billions of people in the 207 00:09:24,440 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 3: world and not everyone believes life has a purpose. So 208 00:09:27,760 --> 00:09:30,439 Speaker 3: if you don't believe life has a purpose, it does 209 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:31,319 Speaker 3: not impact your score. 210 00:09:32,040 --> 00:09:32,360 Speaker 2: Okay. 211 00:09:32,679 --> 00:09:35,760 Speaker 3: If you do believe life has a purpose, then it 212 00:09:35,960 --> 00:09:37,280 Speaker 3: will impact your score. Okay. 213 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,800 Speaker 2: So, by the way, keep in mind, reaching back to 214 00:09:41,880 --> 00:09:45,560 Speaker 2: the very beginning, this is about happiness. Yes, so you 215 00:09:46,360 --> 00:09:52,600 Speaker 2: definitely are making connections between these sectors of your of 216 00:09:52,640 --> 00:09:56,240 Speaker 2: your website, or the question the questionnaire is they connect 217 00:09:56,280 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: to happiness. So your value in life where you find 218 00:10:00,559 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 2: yourself in your life in a group, letting things go 219 00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:08,160 Speaker 2: faster than you should, which I'm pretty sure we're all 220 00:10:08,160 --> 00:10:11,720 Speaker 2: pretty guilty of that. Yeah, So happiness isn't always just 221 00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:13,840 Speaker 2: running through a field of daisies and playing with puppies 222 00:10:14,480 --> 00:10:17,800 Speaker 2: now also deeper, deeper things to be thinking about. 223 00:10:17,880 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, the emotion of happiness. I make a in 224 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:25,480 Speaker 3: my book, I talk about a delineation between the emotion 225 00:10:25,559 --> 00:10:28,120 Speaker 3: of happiness and the type of happiness that I'm referring to. 226 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:33,240 Speaker 3: Happiness I'm referring to is a long lasting, deep sense 227 00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 3: of happiness. It's a sense of inner peace and satisfaction 228 00:10:36,320 --> 00:10:38,920 Speaker 3: at the deepest level of yourself, which is very different 229 00:10:38,960 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: than the emotion. And studies show that if you chase 230 00:10:42,320 --> 00:10:46,240 Speaker 3: the emotion of happiness, you're almost doomed to not be 231 00:10:46,280 --> 00:10:49,760 Speaker 3: happy because emotions are fleeting, they come and go, and 232 00:10:49,800 --> 00:10:54,240 Speaker 3: you're going to constantly be running around trying to be happy. 233 00:10:54,280 --> 00:10:59,200 Speaker 3: You know, it's a fool's Errand however, if you build 234 00:10:59,240 --> 00:11:02,679 Speaker 3: the structures in life that have a byproduct of happiness, 235 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:04,600 Speaker 3: that's where the magic is. 236 00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:08,360 Speaker 2: Conversation of late has been about serotonin, the serotonin highs. 237 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,400 Speaker 2: I'm sure I'm assuming this is all tied into that 238 00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:11,800 Speaker 2: as well. Yeah, okay, Yeah. 239 00:11:11,840 --> 00:11:14,880 Speaker 3: Doctor Anna Lemke, she wrote a book dopamin Nation, and 240 00:11:15,120 --> 00:11:17,560 Speaker 3: I reference her work in my book because it's it 241 00:11:17,840 --> 00:11:20,640 Speaker 3: specifically ties into this in terms of the best ways 242 00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:23,840 Speaker 3: to go about achieving a life of happiness. She doesn't 243 00:11:23,840 --> 00:11:26,800 Speaker 3: really talk about it in her work necessarily, but people 244 00:11:26,880 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 3: try and pursue happiness in all different types of ways, 245 00:11:31,000 --> 00:11:34,640 Speaker 3: and just through life and reading and being her all 246 00:11:34,640 --> 00:11:37,800 Speaker 3: over the world, seeing the ways that have done it 247 00:11:37,880 --> 00:11:41,040 Speaker 3: that are successful and long lasting, and the ways that 248 00:11:41,080 --> 00:11:44,760 Speaker 3: really get people into trouble, like that dopamine serotonin thing 249 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:46,840 Speaker 3: that you mentioned that gets people into. 250 00:11:46,679 --> 00:11:51,319 Speaker 1: Trouble, like Instagram likes and the instant gratification of getting 251 00:11:51,360 --> 00:11:53,240 Speaker 1: exactly what you want as soon as you want it. 252 00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:59,760 Speaker 2: And scary porn to your porn. I'm not the only one, 253 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:06,680 Speaker 2: what up, Nate. So basically, if I do this, I 254 00:12:06,760 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 2: do the equation and I get my sum. 255 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 1: I guess you add it all up. 256 00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:15,720 Speaker 2: I can see where I'm deficient, right, I can see 257 00:12:15,720 --> 00:12:18,280 Speaker 2: what would make me happier than I'm not doing enough 258 00:12:18,320 --> 00:12:21,240 Speaker 2: of essentially according to this, right, correct. Yeah. 259 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 3: So the idea is you take the quiz and you 260 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:29,200 Speaker 3: look at the answers that you have given and usually 261 00:12:29,240 --> 00:12:31,240 Speaker 3: and I think it's come out already when I was 262 00:12:31,240 --> 00:12:32,959 Speaker 3: going through, and you're thinking, wow. 263 00:12:32,800 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 2: I could probably do a little better there. 264 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, And that's all that it's doing now. My book 265 00:12:37,679 --> 00:12:40,720 Speaker 3: gives ideas resources, things that have worked for me, things 266 00:12:40,720 --> 00:12:43,960 Speaker 3: that have worked for other people. But that stuff is everywhere. 267 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 3: If you see something that you feel you could or 268 00:12:46,920 --> 00:12:49,800 Speaker 3: you want to improve on the information, there's no lack 269 00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:52,920 Speaker 3: of information out there. So the idea, you take the quiz, 270 00:12:53,120 --> 00:12:54,960 Speaker 3: you see what pings you, and then you start working 271 00:12:55,000 --> 00:12:55,200 Speaker 3: on it. 272 00:12:56,200 --> 00:12:59,080 Speaker 2: Love it.
