funny because I think, if I remember Riley, Alex was the same in terms of like all of his mates are out there, you know, getting boozed and having a great time and he's like just head down in the chats for years on end. How did that go from a light as a youngster? Like, did you feel you're missing out at
Speaker 1
all? Or? Yeah, that's the thing for me because in the UK, we have six form. This is the period of that was what I was in at the time. And that's when everyone's turning 18 here in the UK. And as you can imagine, that's when everyone, you know, life starting to become amazing for all these people as you can go to clubs and whatnot. And for me, that's why I did miss out on. I'll be honest, you know, everyone Friday, Saturday's are where we go in. For me, it's like, I want to get home quick and, you know, crack and we're trading. So that element I did miss out on. And but I'm trying to, I always try to see as that's what I'll catch up on later in life. And that's what I'm working towards doing in the coming
Speaker 2
years. And so what, what do you think made you, you know, have the mentality when you've got all this peer pressure and stuff, especially when you're, you know, a teenager, pushing in one direction and you've managed to sort of break free from it. I mean, what, what mindset did you, and why do you think you've got to mind sit like this?
Speaker 1
Yeah, it's a good question. I think it's just a different type of hunger. You know, it's not that type of, you know, little burst of motivation you get after watching a movie. For me, I've always just had this passion that I've got to do it no matter what. And it's just some, I've always had good form of discipline. And I've been able to exercise that. Like I said, through potentially lifeguard in that patience, that discipline. And I've always been able to tell myself, Matt, don't do it. It's not worth it, you know, for the greater good. And yeah, it's just something that's come quite naturally.
