Speaker 3: Of time is putting into these restaurants. Man, the only
Speaker 3: thing to come to a sleep is a dream. But
Speaker 3: you have to get your rest.
Speaker 1: Now.
Speaker 3: I heard one thing like if you rest, your rest,
Speaker 3: So be careful with your time. And you definitely gotta
Speaker 3: be careful with your health as well. So I definitely
Speaker 3: be tired. You know this, This restaurant industry, entrepreneurship definitely
Speaker 3: you know, put me in some sacrifices beyond my limits.
Speaker 3: I don't even see my children, you know. I got
Speaker 3: two young boys, one years old and two years old,
Speaker 3: Shayne Kaber, So that messed me on my entrepreneur lifestyle.
Speaker 3: Running a restaurant, messed up my relationship with my child mother.
Speaker 3: You know, me not having a time, me not being
Speaker 3: there for my you know, for the family. I'm not
Speaker 3: even saying my kids because I'm running the restaurants and
Speaker 3: things of nature. So that really hurt me too, has
Speaker 3: been a young father. So I'm trying to get that
Speaker 3: freedom back as well, because Okay, you got freedom from
Speaker 3: not working for nobody, but now you're taking your freedom
Speaker 3: from your family, like they don't even get to see
Speaker 3: So my freedom got took from like that because being
Speaker 3: an entrepreneur. So that's the cons of the restaurant industry
Speaker 3: as well and entrepreneur industry that you don't even see
Speaker 3: your family because you're working until hours. You're making doing this,
Speaker 3: so you become a slaver of the money.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and that's the goal too, is to ultimately scale
Speaker 2: to the point where you don't actually have to physically work,
Speaker 2: because you're really trading one boss for another. In that scenario,
Speaker 2: it's like, now the boss isn't mister Johnson, but the
Speaker 2: bosses Benjamin Franklin. Your boss is money. Your bosses money.
Speaker 2: So the goal to actually be financially free to a
Speaker 2: point where it's not really about always say it's not
Speaker 2: about money's about freedom. About freedom, that's the most important thing.
Speaker 2: Peace of mind is you can't put a price tag
Speaker 2: on peace of mind.
Speaker 3: Can put a price bag on peace of mind, can
Speaker 3: put a price tag on peace of mind. So my
Speaker 3: mindset now is like, you know all that's took care
Speaker 3: communication is number one. You got to learn to communicate
Speaker 3: and let these women know that's actually taking care of
Speaker 3: these kids. Let your sons know, let your family know. Like, hey,
Speaker 3: this is what I'm doing. I'm a sacrifice this time
Speaker 3: right now. Oh so now I do. I'm gonna get
Speaker 3: my kids three days out the week. I make sure
Speaker 3: I get them three days out the week. Like I
Speaker 3: pause myself. I get brother in min's that know the
Speaker 3: recipe and things and know how to run a restaurant,
Speaker 3: I get an employee and know how to run it,
Speaker 3: and I step out and be a father as well,
Speaker 3: And that's my freedom as well.
Speaker 4: It's important, man, Like I know that struggle. Man, it
Speaker 4: takes a lot of balance, like not being there to
Speaker 4: make it to a parent teacher conference, right, or not
Speaker 4: being there to check the homework. And I remember when
Speaker 4: my daughter got to we had to went to Chicago
Speaker 4: and she failed us spelling to us and I was like, damn,
Speaker 4: we wasn't there to study, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4: But having systems in place, having support, it makes it
Speaker 4: a lot easier.
Speaker 3: Easy because them kids is definitely a mental break for
Speaker 3: you as well. He definitely bring another kind of energy,
Speaker 3: you know. That's that's that's free minds, that's fresh mindsets,
Speaker 3: because that's new smiles. So your children, you're looking at him,
Speaker 3: You're like, wow, he's my broke best friends. He's my
Speaker 3: broke best friend. So I got it really.
Speaker 4: Like yeah, I mean and in the end, you're doing
Speaker 4: it for them, right, So like anytime you feel tired,
Speaker 4: this is like, you know what, I can't be tired
Speaker 4: because I know what the future holds for him and
Speaker 4: I know what the future holds for her. We're just
Speaker 4: gonna make this easier for them.
Speaker 3: My graduates from my school being forced back drop drop,
