0:00Finish work, head home, maybe have a
0:03bite to eat, and then settle in for the
0:05evening.
0:06They find their spot on the couch, turn
0:09on the television,
0:10and before you know it, another day is
0:12done.
0:13The week rolls on, then the month, then
0:15the year.
0:16The question is,
0:17what happened to all that time?
0:20Now, I call this the hidden power of
0:22spare time.
0:24The magic hours after work.
0:26The precious minutes before the world
0:28wakes up.
0:29If you stop and look at it, there's a
0:31fortune hidden there. Most never see
0:33[music] it. Most never tap into it.
0:36But,
0:38I found out
0:39if
0:41you become intentional about those
0:42hours,
0:44they can change your whole direction.
0:46I remember when I started noticing this,
0:49I'd come home from work and ask, what am
0:51I doing with these hours? Am I just
0:53passing the time, or am I using [music]
0:55the time? And the truth hit me.
0:58Most of us are passing [music] the time.
1:01Filling in the blank spaces with
1:03distractions that add up to nothing.
1:06The hours after [music] work become the
1:07most expensive hours we own if we let
1:10them slip away.
1:13Now, imagine this.
1:15What if,
1:17instead of letting those hours leak out,
1:20you started investing [music] them?
1:22Not just spending them,
1:24investing them.
1:25You know, most people think opportunity
1:28comes during the day,
1:29when the office [music] is open.
1:31But, the real magic happens
1:35when you get serious [music]
1:36about your evenings, your weekends.
1:39The time when nobody's watching and
1:40nobody's pushing you.
1:42Let me ask you, how valuable is an hour?
1:45Not just an hour at the office, but an
1:47hour you control completely. [music]
1:49What if you turned off the television
1:51just two nights a week and decided to
1:54learn something new? Build a small
1:56project,
1:57>> [music]
1:57>> write a few pages, make a few calls,
2:00read a good book.
2:01Multiply that by 52 weeks. Suddenly,
2:04you've bought yourself a whole extra
2:07month out of the year.
2:10Part-time ambition, that's what I call
2:12it.
2:13It's not about working every spare
2:14minute, wearing yourself out.
2:17No, it's about finding the courage to
2:19use just a portion of your extra time
2:21for something with potential.
2:23Something that could create value,
2:26teach you a skill,
2:28earn you a dollar,
2:30set you on a new course.
2:32Most people underestimate what can be
2:33done in those little windows.
2:35They wait for a perfect moment, a
2:38stretch of free time that never comes.
2:41I learned,
2:43you don't have to wait for a clean
2:44slate.
2:45Just take the corners and edges of your
2:47day,
2:48the overlooked hours.
2:50The extra time becomes extra
2:51opportunity.
2:53There's a hidden door there, and most
2:55walk right past it.
2:57But,
2:58if you stop,
2:59look around,
3:01and decide to use those hours wisely,
3:04the game
3:05starts to change.
3:09The question isn't how much time you
3:11have.
3:12The real question is,
3:14what could you become if you started
3:16using what you've already got?
3:18Because your spare time is where your
3:20future hides. You can either waste it,
3:22or you can work it. That choice, simple
3:26as it is,
3:26>> [music]
3:27>> makes all the difference.
3:29I used to tell people,
3:30don't underestimate
3:32the power of part-time effort.
3:35Sometimes,
3:36just one or two focused hours a night is
3:39enough to move your life in a whole new
3:41direction.
3:43That's the magic of spare time.
3:45If you want to change your [music]
3:47fortune, start there.
3:51A lot of people think success requires a
3:53dramatic leap.
3:54They imagine the big moment, walking
3:57into the boss's office, handing in a
3:59resignation, [music] burning the ships
4:01behind them.
4:02They picture diving in headfirst,
4:05no safety net.
4:07And because that vision is so
4:08intimidating, most never take the first
4:11step at all.
4:13But, let me tell you something.
4:14Success rarely starts with the leap. It
4:18starts with a small step. Not a plunge,
4:21just a step.
4:22Consistent [music] steps. Night after
4:24night, week after week, little efforts
4:27that begin to add up.
4:30You don't have to quit your job to begin
4:31your journey.
4:33In fact, the wisest people keep their
4:34steady income while building their
4:36ambition on the side.
4:39There's wisdom in that security.
4:41You keep the roof over your head,
4:44the food on the table,
4:46the lights on.
4:47But, at the same time,
4:49you build something new.
4:51And it's in that part-time effort
4:53that you get to test [music] yourself.
4:56You get to find out if you have the
4:58discipline success demands.
5:01Cuz if you can't carve out a few hours a
5:02week for your own ambition while life is
5:05busy,
5:06what makes you think you'll manage when
5:09the pressure is really on?
5:11It's a test.
5:12A simple one,
5:14but profound.
5:16Can you make yourself work when no one
5:17is looking?
5:19Can you hold yourself to a higher
5:20standard when there's no boss watching
5:23over your shoulder?
5:24That's the proving ground for greatness.
5:29I talk to people all the time who say,
5:30"Jim,
5:31I want to start something, but I'm
5:33afraid.
5:35I'm afraid of failing, of losing
5:37security, of making the wrong move." So,
5:39I ask,
5:41what if you didn't have to risk it all
5:42at once?
5:43What if you could
5:45begin
5:47with
5:48part-time effort?
5:49Learn the ropes, gain experience,
5:51[music] build confidence
5:53while your main income keeps flowing.
5:56That's the path
5:57most never consider, but it's the path
6:00that works.
6:01I remember when I started my own
6:02part-time journey.
6:04I didn't leave everything behind in a
6:06dramatic fashion. I simply started using
6:09my evenings differently.
6:11>> [music]
6:11>> Instead of sitting around waiting for
6:13life to get better,
6:14I decided to get better myself.
6:19I kept my job.
6:21I kept my routine, but I added something
6:23extra. A little project, a bit of
6:26learning, a phone call here and there.
6:29And as the part-time results began to
6:31show up, so did my belief in the bigger
6:34dream.
6:36There's another benefit to starting
6:38part-time.
6:39It gives you the [music] chance to find
6:41out if you really love what you think
6:42you want to do.
6:44Sometimes,
6:45>> [music]
6:45>> the idea sounds great, but the work is
6:47not for you.
6:48It's much easier
6:50to discover
6:51that
6:53while your main
6:54income
6:56is still coming [music] in.
6:57That's called wisdom.
6:59Testing your dream
7:01before betting the farm.
7:03So, don't wait for perfect
7:04circumstances.
7:05Don't convince yourself that you need to
7:07burn every bridge before [music] you
7:09begin. Start where you are, with what
7:12you have, in the time [music] that you
7:14control.
7:15The discipline you build in the margins
7:18of your life will become the foundation
7:19for everything else.
7:22It's not the dramatic leap
7:24that changes [music] your life.
7:26It's the steady,
7:27consistent steps
7:29taken with courage and discipline
7:32that add up to something extraordinary.
7:34Part-time ambition is not just a way to
7:37earn extra money. It's the way to prove
7:38to yourself that you have what it takes
7:39to succeed, no matter [music] what.
7:42Keep your job for security,
7:44but build your dream for freedom.
7:46When you do both, you set yourself on
7:49the path to something truly remarkable.
7:54And here's something that will change
7:55the way you look at your future.
7:57It did for me, anyway. The second income
8:00mindset.
8:02Most people live on one stream,
8:05one paycheck,
8:06one employer,
8:08one set of expectations.
8:11And they settle in,
8:12hoping that somehow the company will
8:14remember them at the end of the year.
8:16Maybe with a small raise,
8:18or a pat on the back.
8:20But, your paycheck is designed to feed
8:23you,
8:24not free you. Security is wonderful.
8:27It keeps the lights on, pays the rent.
8:30But, freedom?
8:32That takes a different mindset
8:33altogether. Freedom doesn't come from
8:36what the company gives [music] you. It
8:38comes from what you do with your time
8:39when you're off the clock.
8:42When you start a part-time project, you
8:43begin to learn new skills.
8:46Maybe it's sales, [music]
8:47maybe it's communication,
8:49maybe it's something as simple as
8:51discipline.
8:52But, here's what's powerful. Every
8:54lesson you learn after hours is yours
8:57[music]
8:58forever.
9:00The company can take back the paycheck,
9:01but not the person you become.
9:04I can tell you from my own experience,
9:06the very first time you earn a dollar
9:07outside your job, something changes
9:10inside. It's not about the amount.
9:13>> [music]
9:13>> It's about the confidence. That extra
9:16dollar
9:17represents possibility.
9:19It says you can do something for
9:20yourself.
9:21You can create value in the marketplace,
9:24not just show up and do what's required.
9:29That's the second income mindset.
9:32It's not just about the money. It's
9:33about building value.
9:36Learning to solve problems, to spot
9:39opportunities, to serve people. It's
9:42about multiplying your options, so you
9:44never feel trapped again.
9:47The more value you can create on your
9:48own,
9:49the less you depend on circumstances.
9:52Suddenly, if the company changes its
9:53mind, you've still got yours. [music]
9:56If the economy shifts, you've learned
9:58how to shift with it.
10:00One of the best gifts you can give
10:02yourself
10:03is the ability to create value outside
10:05your paycheck.
10:07When you work part-time on your own
10:08ambition, you're practicing
10:10entrepreneurship in the safest way
10:12possible.
10:13If you make a [music] mistake,
10:16you learn and adjust.
10:18If you succeed, [music] you gain
10:19confidence.
10:20Either way, you grow.
10:24Some people ask, "Jim,
10:27what if I don't know where to start?"
10:29Here's the good news.
10:30Start
10:32with what interests you.
10:33Something you're curious about,
10:35something you can do on nights and
10:37weekends.
10:38Maybe it's offering a service,
10:40maybe it's learning a trade,
10:43maybe it's starting with a simple
10:45product.
10:48Don't worry about the size.
10:50Worry about getting started.
10:52Every hour you invest outside your job
10:54is an hour that builds you. [music]
10:56Every extra dollar is a vote of
10:58confidence in yourself. Over time, those
11:01small efforts compound.
11:03You become more valuable, more
11:05resourceful, more prepared for the
11:07future.
11:08And let me tell you,
11:10in a world that changes as fast as this
11:12one,
11:13preparation [music]
11:15is everything.
11:17Your part-time project may start small,
11:20but it carries enormous promise.
11:22>> [music]
11:22>> It teaches you to believe in your own
11:24ability to create.
11:25It multiplies your choices,
11:28builds your character,
11:29and gives you a sense of freedom no job
11:31can [music] match.
11:33The paycheck may feed you,
11:36but your ambition working part-time
11:40>> [music]
11:40>> is what will eventually set you free.
11:43That's the magic of the second income
11:45mindset.
11:46>> [music]
11:46>> Not just a little extra money, but a
11:48whole new level of belief in yourself.
11:50A new set of skills, [music]
11:52a new way of seeing the world and your
11:54place in it.
11:55When you make that shift,
11:57everything else
12:00starts
12:01to open up.
12:04There's a law that governs achievement,
12:07whether you're working on a grand vision
12:09or just a little project on [music] the
12:11side.
12:12I call it the law of momentum.
12:15Once you start, once you gather just a
12:17bit of [music] speed,
12:19things begin to change
12:21inside and out.
12:24The beginning is always the hardest.
12:26When you come home at night tired from
12:28the day and you decide to push a little
12:30further,
12:31the first half hour feels heavy.
12:33Your mind says,
12:34"Just relax.
12:36Take it easy.
12:37You've earned it."
12:39And yet, the first time you overcome
12:41that voice
12:43and do something for your future
12:44instead,
12:46a spark is lit.
12:47You build belief,
12:49and belief is a powerful fuel.
12:53I'll tell you,
12:55the first small win
12:56is a treasure.
12:58Maybe you close a tiny sale,
13:00or you master a new skill, [music]
13:02or you get your first compliment from
13:04someone who notices your effort.
13:06That win, as small as it seems, is more
13:09important than the paycheck you received
13:12at [music] work that week.
13:14Why?
13:15Because it's yours.
13:16You created it.
13:18You prove to yourself
13:20that what you do in your spare time
13:22matters.
13:24Suddenly, you're not just passing the
13:26hours.
13:27You're investing [music] them, and the
13:28return starts to show.
13:30Momentum
13:32is what takes a dream [music]
13:33from invisible to possible.
13:36It turns a wish into a plan.
13:38>> [music]
13:39>> When you start seeing results, even tiny
13:41ones, something shifts in the way you
13:43show up. Not just after hours, but all
13:46day long.
13:47You start to carry a bit more energy
13:48into the morning. Your conversations
13:50change.
13:51People notice a new spark, a little more
13:53enthusiasm in your voice.
13:57The law of momentum is simple.
13:59Success feeds on itself. Progress, no
14:02matter how small,
14:03>> [music]
14:03>> builds motivation.
14:05Motivation
14:07creates more action.
14:08And that action builds more results.
14:11It's a cycle,
14:12>> [music]
14:13>> and once you get it going, it's hard to
14:15stop.
14:16I remember in the early days,
14:18sometimes the only thing that kept me
14:20going [music] was
14:21the smallest sign of progress.
14:24Maybe I made a new connection,
14:26or I saw improvement in a skill I'd been
14:28practicing after hours.
14:30Those little wins
14:31>> [music]
14:31>> became the building blocks of bigger
14:33victories later.
14:34I learned to celebrate them,
14:36to let them fuel the next step.
14:38Pretty soon, one win led to another, and
14:41momentum began to work in my favor.
14:45Here's something interesting.
14:47Momentum is contagious. When you start
14:49achieving on the side, it spills over
14:52into [music] your work, your
14:53relationships, your whole outlook.
14:56You find yourself more eager to learn,
14:58more willing to try,
15:00more ready
15:02to say yes
15:04to opportunity.
15:06The energy you build
15:08>> [music]
15:08>> in your extra hours at night becomes
15:10enthusiasm by day.
15:13I want to challenge you.
15:14Don't underestimate the power of small
15:16wins.
15:18Don't dismiss the progress
15:19>> [music]
15:20>> just because it's happening after hours
15:22or on weekends,
15:24or when nobody else is watching.
15:26Remember, every great thing starts
15:28small. Every journey
15:32begins with a single,
15:34often unnoticed, step. And the more
15:38steps you take, the [music] faster you
15:40move.
15:40That's how momentum works.
15:43One hour leads to another. One sale
15:46leads to [music] a second. One new skill
15:48gives you the confidence to learn a
15:49third.
15:51Pretty soon, you're not just managing
15:52your time.
15:54You're multiplying your [music] results.
15:56The law of momentum is working for you,
15:58or it's working against you.
16:00If you do nothing with your spare time,
16:03momentum will carry you in circles, and
16:05the years will pass quietly [music] by.
16:08But if you choose to act,
16:10just a little, just enough
16:12to create [music] your first win,
16:15you'll find yourself on a different path
16:17altogether.
16:20That's the power of momentum.
16:22It starts with something small,
16:24and before [music] you know it,
16:26it has the power to change everything.
16:29Now, we have to get honest about what it
16:30takes.
16:32Balancing a full-time job with a
16:33part-time dream
16:35is not a game for the faint of heart. It
16:37takes discipline,
16:39the kind most people never practice, the
16:41kind that changes you forever. [snorts]
16:47Let's face it. Most people don't
16:48struggle because they lack ambition.
16:51They struggle because they never learn
16:52to trade comfort for [music] growth.
16:55The evenings come, and the easiest thing
16:57in the world is to reach for the remote,
17:01to scroll
17:02through distractions,
17:04to sink into the familiar.
17:07But every hour of television is an hour
17:09of opportunity lost.
17:12Every evening spent in comfort is an
17:14evening that could have moved you closer
17:17to your goals. [music]
17:18I remember,
17:20there were nights when the temptation to
17:21relax was strong. [music]
17:23The couch looked inviting.
17:25The snacks were calling.
17:27And the thought of one more hour of
17:29effort seemed almost too much.
17:31But I learned to ask myself,
17:33"What's the price of this hour?
17:35Is it just entertainment, or could it be
17:38education?
17:39Is it just comfort,
17:41>> [music]
17:41>> or could it be creation?"
17:43If you learn to trade one for the other,
17:45you're on your way to a different life.
17:49Discipline is the bridge between your
17:50intentions and your results.
17:53If you want to manage two paths, a
17:55steady job and a growing dream, you have
17:57to become a master
17:58>> [music]
17:58>> of that bridge. You have to carve out
18:00time, guard it, and use it with
18:04intention.
18:06Sometimes that means saying no to things
18:09that everyone else says yes to.
18:11Sometimes it means being misunderstood,
18:14even [music] ridiculed.
18:16But that's the price.
18:17And the ones willing to pay it are the
18:19ones
18:20who find out what they're truly capable
18:24of.
18:25I'll tell you,
18:27discipline is not a punishment. It's the
18:29best gift you can give yourself.
18:31>> [snorts]
18:31>> It's proof that you believe your future
18:33is worth more than a fleeting comfort in
18:35the present. Every time you choose study
18:38over entertainment, creation over
18:40consumption,
18:42>> [music]
18:42>> you're casting a vote for your own
18:43potential.
18:45Every evening spent building, learning,
18:47[music] practicing,
18:49those are deposits in your future
18:51account.
18:53Sometimes
18:55people ask,
18:56"How do you find the time?"
18:57And the truth is, you don't find it.
18:59>> [music]
18:59>> You make it. You make it by deciding
19:01that your dream matters.
19:03You make it by sacrificing a little
19:05today
19:07for something much greater tomorrow.
19:09That's what separates the successful
19:12from the merely [music] comfortable.
19:15Let me give you a little warning here.
19:17When you start balancing two paths, life
19:20doesn't get easier at first.
19:21>> [music]
19:22>> In fact, it gets harder.
19:24The demands increase, the schedule
19:26tightens, and the comfort zone starts to
19:29shrink.
19:31But here's the secret.
19:33The discipline you develop in those hard
19:35days
19:36is the same discipline that makes you
19:38[music] unstoppable later.
19:41It becomes a habit, and habits become
19:43character.
19:46When you can manage both, a steady job
19:48and a side ambition,
19:50you become the kind of person who can
19:52handle anything.
19:54You build the muscle to keep going when
19:55it's tough,
19:56>> [music]
19:57>> to stay focused when the distractions
19:58are loud, to keep promises to yourself
20:02when nobody else would know if you
20:04slipped.
20:06That's the kind of strength
20:08that changes the whole trajectory of
20:10[music] a life.
20:11So, trade television for study,
20:14comfort for creation,
20:16>> [music]
20:16>> distraction for focus.
20:19Every choice adds up. Every hour
20:21invested is another brick in the
20:22foundation of your future. And when you
20:25look back, you won't remember the shows
20:27you missed.
20:28You'll remember
20:30the life you built.
20:33That's the price [music]
20:34of two paths.
20:36And if you're willing to pay it,
20:38there's no limit [music] to what you can
20:40achieve. And here's what happens when
20:42your part-time ambition begins to show
20:44real [music] results.
20:45You start small,
20:47you build with discipline, and then
20:50something remarkable takes place.
20:52One day you look up
20:54and the income you're earning from your
20:56evenings [music]
20:56and weekends is matching, or maybe even
20:59passing your regular paycheck. [music]
21:02Or perhaps even more important, the
21:04fulfillment you get from your side
21:06project is greater than what you feel in
21:09your main job.
21:11That's when you [music] know
21:14you've earned
21:16a choice.
21:19But here's the lesson. [music]
21:20Freedom is not something you grab at
21:22impulsively. It's not a wild leap into
21:25the unknown
21:27just because you're tired of your
21:28current situation.
21:30True freedom is something you build step
21:32by step [music] until you've created
21:36enough
21:38value, enough
21:41momentum that your [music] part-time
21:43effort becomes a solid foundation for a
21:47new life.
21:48When you reach the point where your side
21:50income rivals your main income, or your
21:53sense of purpose grows bigger than your
21:55job, you've arrived at a crossroads.
21:57[music]
21:58Now you have the right to decide,
22:01not because you're desperate,
22:03but because you're prepared.
22:06That's the goal. You're not quitting
22:08because you have no other choice.
22:11You're moving forward
22:12because you've created options.
22:16I remember the feeling. The excitement
22:18of watching my side ambition grow.
22:20>> [music]
22:21>> The pride that came from seeing the
22:22results of those late nights and early
22:24mornings finally pay off.
22:26But I also remember the wisdom of
22:28patience.
22:29Don't jump too soon.
22:31Keep building.
22:33Keep learning.
22:35Make sure your part-time effort isn't
22:38just [music] a flash in the pan, but a
22:41steady, reliable source of growth.
22:43[music]
22:45Too many people let excitement rush them
22:47into decisions.
22:48They get one good month and think it's
22:50time to quit.
22:51But real success is measured over
22:55seasons, not weekends. [music]
22:57You want to see your side income
22:59consistent, stable,
23:02and growing.
23:04You want to know that you have
23:06the habits in place
23:08to handle the new responsibilities and
23:10challenges
23:11that will come with making your ambition
23:13full-time.
23:16And here's another key.
23:18Sometimes you may discover that you
23:20don't even want to quit your job right
23:21[music] away.
23:22Maybe you enjoy both paths.
23:25Maybe you like the security and the
23:26challenge, the mix of steady work and
23:29side hustle.
23:31There's nothing wrong with that.
23:33The real victory is not in leaving your
23:34job.
23:35It's in earning the freedom to choose
23:37your own path.
23:39Remember, the dream is not to escape
23:41work, [music]
23:42but to do work you love
23:44on your terms, in your own way.
23:48That's what part-time ambition is really
23:50about. Building the skills, the
23:52confidence, and the income to shape your
23:56own destiny.
23:59So, don't rush. Grow strategically.
24:02>> [music]
24:02>> Build so strong that when you make the
24:04leap, it's not a risk, it's a natural
24:07step. Let your results speak for
24:09themselves.
24:10When your part-time dream becomes
24:12full-time reality, let it be because you
24:14earned it,
24:16not because you chased a fantasy.
24:18That's the true magic. Turning a few
24:20extra hours into a whole new life, one
24:22wise choice at a time.
24:25It's easy to count the profit,
24:27to look at the extra income,
24:29to measure the growth in your bank
24:31account.
24:32But the biggest [music] payoff from
24:33part-time ambition is not what you earn.
24:37It's who you become in the process.
24:39That's the final reward.
24:41When you decide to use your spare
24:43[music] time for something more than
24:45entertainment or distraction, you set a
24:47new standard for yourself.
24:49You become a person who values their own
24:51future.
24:53You create the habit of looking for
24:54opportunity,
24:55of believing in possibility, [music]
24:58of taking action when most are content
25:00to wait.
25:01The person you become is someone who no
25:03longer waits for luck or complains
25:05[music] about circumstances.
25:07You've learned to use your evenings,
25:09your weekends, the cracks in your
25:11schedule
25:12to build something that [music] matters.
25:14That's a shift most people never make.
25:18They wait for the world to hand them
25:20something, but you've learned to reach
25:23out and build it with your own two
25:26hands. As you practice this,
25:28your confidence grows.
25:31You stop doubting whether you're
25:32capable.
25:34You've seen the proof
25:36each time you create value, each dollar
25:39earned outside your job, each skill
25:42mastered when nobody else is watching.
25:45That's how belief is
25:46>> [music]
25:46>> built, not by words, but by deeds.
25:51You also become more resourceful. You
25:53learn to solve problems, to make
25:55decisions, to stretch your imagination.
25:57The habit of making time,
25:59even when you don't feel like it,
26:01teaches you that discipline is a form of
26:04self-respect.
26:06You begin to see yourself as someone who
26:07can be trusted with responsibility.
26:10You become a creator instead of a
26:11consumer,
26:13a doer
26:14instead of a dreamer. [music]
26:16And as this transformation unfolds, you
26:18start to inspire those around you.
26:20Your family notices the change. Friends
26:23start [music] to ask what you're doing
26:25differently. Your example becomes a
26:28silent invitation for others to step up,
26:31to reach higher,
26:33to use their own spare time more wisely.
26:37Over the years, I've seen it again and
26:39again.
26:40The greatest magic in ambition
26:42is the way it reshapes your character.
26:45Sure, the extra money is nice. The new
26:48options are wonderful.
26:49But the greatest achievement is the way
26:52you think, the way you act, the way you
26:55see the world and your place in it.
26:57You're no longer just an employee.
27:00You're an entrepreneur in spirit, even
27:02if you never leave [music] your job.
27:04You've learned to lead yourself, and
27:06once you've mastered that, the
27:08possibilities [music] are endless.
27:11So, never underestimate the power of
27:13part-time ambition.
27:15It's not about working yourself [music]
27:16to exhaustion. It's about making wise
27:19use of the hours most people waste.
27:22It's about proving to yourself
27:24>> [music]
27:24>> that you can grow,
27:25you can learn, you can build something
27:28valuable
27:29even with limited time.
27:31And as you look back one day, the real
27:33treasure won't be just the business you
27:35built or the extra income you earned.
27:37It'll be the person you became on the
27:38journey. Disciplined, hopeful, creative,
27:41unstoppable.
27:43And that's the real magic.
27:45That's the ultimate reward.
