00:00
Yes, it was totally worth it.
00:03
Yeah.
00:03
Yeah.
00:04
I had like so many doubts before the program because of how many I took before.
00:09
but I would say if I could just take one from all the things I've taken before, I would just take this and just throw the other ones away.
00:17
Far, far away.
00:19
so yeah, the before felt like a choreograph.
00:26
Networking felt like a chore, or should.
00:29
it rarely felt nice.
00:31
It felt very extractive many times, the after is me realizing that never not networking is the way to go.
00:40
because one, you get to kind of like tap into the power of the network and always kind of like be top of mind.
00:51
But then the other one is you don't feel like you're alone.
00:55
and you get to form friendships and you get to find out very cool things about people and you get better at just being a person, talking to other people.
01:08
So yeah, that's how that, that's how it feels now.
01:11
Which I think it pays for the program.
01:14
Just this mindset, just this shift of I get to network instead of like, I have to, Yeah, the fact that you have a simple framework to help you, do it and then the fact that you push us to do it in the group, which like I said before, it helps you become more comfortable both with networking and both with the group, which just increases the enjoyment of the class.
01:40
I think like before the class the goal was, or like at the beginning of the, of the class it was make hella money.
01:49
Like just, just make over 100k.
01:52
I, I put like 250 just to like aim as high as possible.
01:57
but now like I realized, I think it was also in the, the gunner networking you talked about.
02:07
How do you kind of define a goal and how you test it if it's feasible.
02:12
Like how much work do you have to put into it as opposed to like what you're getting out of it.
02:18
And I sh.
02:20
I, I switched it from that to network as much as possible, which to me meant that like I, it made sense to me.
02:29
The better I network, I know the byproduct is going to be to make more money.
02:34
So, so now the goal is not to make more money is to just be connected which is going to then affect my income.
02:42
And it also feels like a goal that's not going to burn me out because talking to people is great.
02:50
and yeah, so my goal is to network more.
02:56
yeah, just be connected to the people that I want to be connected.
03:00
And then to just people in general.
03:03
I would tell my, myself, this course is going to help you, shift your perspective.
03:10
So you love to network.
03:12
so it becomes not something that you should do to something that you want to do that you like doing.
03:19
and then if you do it or you don't do it, you don't punish yourself.
03:23
It's just, I don't know, like sleeping.
03:26
If you don't sleep one night, you don't just like beat yourself up.
03:29
It's like, I couldn't sleep.
03:30
But sleep is good.
03:31
So networking is also good.
03:32
So, I think it just if, if someone had told me before the class, look, this is going to put you in the mindset of, of networking is fun and it's pleasurable, and you would want to do it because it doesn't feel like a should, then I think, I, I would have, definitely signed up sooner.
03:56
Yeah.
03:57
Yeah.
03:58
I, I remember how this all started with me like, doubting it so much, but now I'm like, no, that was the right call.
04:06
Yeah.
04:07
I'm so glad that you got a lot of it too, because there's some kind of pressure when it's like people say I've taken all the other courses and I'm like, all right, well, let's go.
04:20
Let's do this.
04:21
Well, it must feel good to hear that and then to hear yours is the best.
