1. 0:00Pro Mind Group. Hi Alex, I have golden
2. 0:03handcuffs. Uh what you and your spouse
3. 0:05do in your own time, man, is up to you.
4. 0:07Um I don't need to know the color of
5. 0:08your handcuffs. Uh
6. 0:10Uh
7. 0:12really good company and scaling their
8. 0:13business nationally. Uh when I achieve
9. 0:16this, it will be good for my reputation.
10. 0:18Is it worth sticking out for a year or
11. 0:19grow out of my own and start my
12. 0:20business? It depends on how big the
13. 0:21outcome is. If the outcome is something
14. 0:23that is going to basically be like I'll
15. 0:24call it like career bucket list type
16. 0:26stuff that like if you walk into a room
17. 0:27and someone introduces you, if one of
18. 0:29the things that happen in this business
19. 0:31is something that they would mention
20. 0:32next that's going to happen in the next
21. 0:33call 6 to 12 months. Um
22. 0:35I would say that it is worth staying for
23. 0:37that because that narrative will pay you
24. 0:39more than you would be able to make
25. 0:42basically making up ground without that.
26. 0:44Now, not all bullet points on the resume
27. 0:47are of equal value, but like for
28. 0:49example, to take an extreme, you know,
29. 0:51my my company's going to IPO in the next
30. 0:526 months. I'm the CFO. I'm going to be
31. 0:54leading the IPO. I've never done this
32. 0:55before. Yeah, that's probably worth you
33. 0:58staying around for the IPO to go through
34. 0:59the process because for the rest of your
35. 1:01life you'll be like, "This is the guy
36. 1:02who took XYZ public." Right? Like
37. 1:05there's some things where the narrative
38. 1:06actually provides alpha or superior
39. 1:07return
40. 1:09to the time invested to get it. Right?
41. 1:12And so it means that forever from that
42. 1:13point going forward you'll be able to
43. 1:15earn more equity,
44. 1:16charge more for your services, have more
45. 1:18demand for your services, and all of
46. 1:19these downstream impacts. Now, if it's
47. 1:21like can you say this Can you say with
48. 1:24honesty
49. 1:25that the point of the business that
50. 1:27they're at now still confers the same
51. 1:29level of authority to you? If that's
52. 1:31true, then there's not a lot of
53. 1:32additional value for you to stay. So, it
54. 1:34really just comes down to how big is the
55. 1:36accomplishment and is that
56. 1:37accomplishment
57. 1:39big enough to merit the time investment
58. 1:42and the additional earnings that would
59. 1:43happen as a result of the
60. 1:44accomplishment. If you like this video
