The Slow Down Method

Episode 47: Don't Get High On Your Own Supply


Listen Later

I'm a big fan of old gangster movies.  I love watching "The Goodfellas", "The God Father", and even "Scarface".  I'm not sure why I enjoy them so much, but I always knew there was a particular interest in their lifestyle.  That might make me sound silly, but I think we all grew up with movies that sort of piqued our interest or maybe showed a life that we would never be part of.  I get it, films really do emphasize the romance of it all, but isn't that what makes a good movie?  I digress.  However, one thing I always remembered from those movies was a roundabout phrase as followed, "don't get high on your own supply."  Basically, any person dealing with a particular "business" was warned not to indulge in what they were selling.  However, a lot of times, the star would end up getting caught up in it all.  Isn't it funny how we can fall into that kind of pitfall too?  We say that we're not going to spend money on certain things or buy too much of something else, but before you know it, there's a sale or deal that you can't pass up....sort of like the holiday season we're currently in.  As I continue to compare the two together on this episode, grab a seat, and hopefully you'll learn a little bit from some of my past life lessons.
