00:00:00.000 My wife thinks that I have no empathy
00:00:02.360 because I'm the kind of person that when I'm building stuff,
00:00:05.340 I'm onto the next thing.
00:00:06.420 I don't slow down.
00:00:07.300 My whole life I've always been like, what's next?
00:00:09.380 And that's been part of my drive.
00:00:10.880 And I mistakenly assumed that that edge
00:00:14.520 was what got me results.
00:00:16.000 And then I realized that if I don't lean in
00:00:18.480 to the people in my life to understand
00:00:20.180 what's important to them,
00:00:21.220 then they won't feel seen, heard, or appreciated.
00:00:23.620 So what I learned about empathy is this,
00:00:25.740 it's caring about the people that you care about,
00:00:28.520 what they care about.
00:00:29.760 And the moment I realized
00:00:30.880 that if I could just get genuinely interested
00:00:32.840 in the things people I cared about cared about,
00:00:35.800 then it made them feel connected and seen and appreciated
00:00:39.100 and it made everything in my life easier.
00:00:41.400 And at the end of the day, if you wanna build a business,
00:00:43.500 business is built by people.
00:00:44.860 We build the people, the people build the business,
00:00:47.220 but they ain't showing up
00:00:48.060 if they don't feel like you care about them.
