Most of us say yes to too much and pay for it with our time. Dr. Alex Tam shares the Eulogy Filter he uses to decide yes or no: write your eulogy, reverse your life goals, and only say yes if it gives you energy.
In this episode, youβll hear how he kept serving patients, defined financial freedom in simple terms, and grew to 200+ units with community and systems. Proof that you donβt have to give up family time to build real wealth.
