Ye, sorry to cut you off. No, this goes back to the idea of the people who are following your message, or who are reading your stuff, are very thoughtful in nature, so it's unlikely that they might take your what you write as a blog post, as a prescription to follow a hundred %, if it doesn't apply to their life, which is something you've curated.

Yes, maybe, because we're just doing an emal like, no, a, my name's gabriel. I live here. I read your book. I have a question. They know this, like, i don't know your whole life. I don't know your cenario. I only know these three sentences, you just sent me. So i'm ye, luckily, it's not like a a friend, or if somebody was even being a mentor, like t that's the difference to me. That's why i don't want to be anybody's mentor, cause that involves like, such a deeper relationship, like really knowing somebody's full scenario, so you can really give them very customized a situationl advice. Well,

talk a little bit about what you do when you are seeking a mentor's advice.

You know the answer, don't you?

Well, yes, the people listenn

em

i, in

fact, i didn't want to name him by name in that article. Um, so let's use a specific example of seth goden. Seth goden and i are friends. We've met up a few times. We've talked a few times. Um, i look up to him like crazy. And so whenever i'm in some kind of a pickle and i'm not sure what to do with the situation, i think, i really want to know what seth goden would say. And i think, well, but he's a busy guy. I don't want to bother him until i've put some thought into that. So i'd like, what do i think seth would say? If i like, first, how do i describe the question for him? So i'll take a lot of time to em to to explain the question. Wel to explain my scenario as succinctly as i can, try to get to the essence of the question. Like, what is this thing? I don't know, what has it really come down to? And then once i get this question defined really specifically, then i think about asking it t but then i think, oke will let me try to predict what would he probably say to this. And then i try to counteract that. I mean, i try to respond to my imagined answer of his um. And by the time i do that, the whole problem solved already, and i could just and then i sent him a little emill saying, hat seth, thanks for your continued inspiration. And he replies, ba, saing, thanks deric. That's it. That's how i reach out to my mentors.
