They kick off talking about Tarina’s pajamas and Nic’s shaved head. Elle has told Nic to grow out his hair for the wedding. 

In this episode they dig into Chapter 27: Invest the Time from Know This Do That. 

Nic and Tarina talk about how good things—like a career or rearing kids—takes time and patience. The opposite is also true: too much time spent on the wrong things create a problem if we let it. Where you invest your time and how you invest your time determines your ultimate success.

Stay the course. Stick it out. Building a career means building a reputation and a good reputation fuels more significant relationships. Doors will open. 

As some have said, “The overnight success story is 10 years in the making.” And it might take 20 years. This is not an easy path—a better life awaits those who put in the work, sweat, and tears. A better life is the result of heartache, wins, and losses. 

The nonnegotiable is to invest. And the one thing we all have is time. Keep on keeping on to make the return you desire. There’s magic in the struggle. 

“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times.” (G. Michael Hoff)
