00:00:00.161 --> 00:00:03.009
I am ruthless when it comes to how I spend my time.
00:00:03.009 --> 00:00:10.785
If I can spend most of my time doing my zone of genius things, a little time doing the other stuff, then guess what will happen.
00:00:10.785 --> 00:00:12.564
I get more done by doing less.
00:00:14.589 --> 00:00:27.065
Hi docs, Welcome to the EntreMD podcast, where it's all about helping amazing physicians just like you embrace entrepreneurship so you can have the freedom to live life and practice medicine on your terms.
00:00:27.065 --> 00:00:28.911
I'm your host, Dr Una.
00:00:33.981 --> 00:00:40.862
One of the questions I get asked all the time is Dr Una, where do you find the time to do all the things you do?
00:00:40.862 --> 00:00:47.634
Okay, and today I am going to show you how I run five companies on 20 hours a week.
00:00:47.634 --> 00:00:51.787
Okay, all right, now let's put all of this in perspective.
00:00:51.787 --> 00:00:54.332
So, first of all, I am a wife.
00:00:54.332 --> 00:00:56.564
I've been married for 19 years.
00:00:56.564 --> 00:00:58.548
At this point, I have four children.
00:00:58.548 --> 00:01:03.023
They are 17, 15, 11, and 10 at the time of this recording.
00:01:03.023 --> 00:01:04.808
All four of them are homeschooled.
00:01:04.808 --> 00:01:07.743
So I have that going on and I run five companies.
00:01:08.144 --> 00:01:10.028
One of the companies is my private practice.
00:01:10.028 --> 00:01:14.911
Second company is Entrez MD, the company that is hosting this podcast YouTube channel.
00:01:14.911 --> 00:01:16.397
I have a marketing firm.
00:01:16.397 --> 00:01:19.284
The marketing firm is a firm that serves.
00:01:19.284 --> 00:01:25.923
It serves about six of our companies, like between me and my husband and I, and so it's an internal company, if you will.
00:01:25.923 --> 00:01:28.031
We haven't used it for external things much.
00:01:28.031 --> 00:01:29.817
I have Practice Pilot.
00:01:29.817 --> 00:01:43.441
Practice Pilot is a financial SaaS product for private practice owners which we use where you can track everything, like your revenues, the productivity of your team, where you are compared to your goals, all of those things Like.
00:01:43.441 --> 00:01:44.424
It's fantastic.
00:01:44.424 --> 00:01:45.966
It's called Practice Pilot.
00:01:45.966 --> 00:01:54.430
And then my fifth company is a nonprofit and from there, I do mentorship for thousands of people every single day.
00:01:54.430 --> 00:01:55.171
It's a lot of fun.
00:01:55.171 --> 00:01:57.102
It has this own YouTube channel and all of those things.
00:01:57.164 --> 00:02:06.067
So five companies, okay, you know, and I do this and I have a life, I have a life, I have time for myself, I have time to think, I have time to go on family vacations.
00:02:06.067 --> 00:02:06.588
I have.
00:02:06.588 --> 00:02:07.950
I'm not stressed out.
00:02:07.950 --> 00:02:13.906
I love what I do, I love the people I have the privilege of serving and I keep looking for how to do more.
00:02:13.906 --> 00:02:24.193
Okay, so I want to share with you the things that I do and I want to give this disclaimer Maybe, maybe that's what I'll call it this is not about perfection.
00:02:24.193 --> 00:02:28.787
I probably don't do any of these things perfectly, but I do it enough for it to work.
00:02:28.787 --> 00:02:34.567
And as you listen into this, I don't want you to feel like this is something that you must do.
00:02:34.567 --> 00:02:42.893
I just want you to take one, two, three great ideas and implement it in your own business and your own life.
00:02:42.893 --> 00:02:58.189
So at the end of this episode, after you implement these things, you would have bought back maybe five hours a week, two hours a week, 10 hours a week, 20 hours a week, depending on how you can use this, okay, so in the Entree into Business School, the way we put it is we say we observe, we don't judge right.
00:02:58.189 --> 00:03:08.884
And so I want you to observe this and kind of take what works for you at this stage, this phase of your business and your life, and just go make it better.
00:03:08.884 --> 00:03:10.669
You see what I'm saying Just make it better.
00:03:10.849 --> 00:03:13.062
Okay, so there are five things that I do.
00:03:13.062 --> 00:03:17.919
I took some time to think about this and I'm going to give you the five things.
00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:32.203
The first thing that I do that makes this possible is I am very clear on what my goals are and I'm very clear on the pathway I need to be on to get there.
00:03:32.203 --> 00:03:35.449
The more clarity you have with this.
00:03:35.449 --> 00:03:40.006
The reason why this is so important is that it eliminates waste.
00:03:40.006 --> 00:03:47.829
When shiny objects come your way, it's very easy to say no, because you're like this doesn't line up with my goal and this doesn't line up with my path.
00:03:47.829 --> 00:03:59.191
So I'm going to pass Right, and that is something that I've been really good at, because what makes it possible for me to do that is a high level of focus, high, high, high level of focus.
00:03:59.611 --> 00:04:04.461
Okay, so, for instance, for my private practice, I'm very clear on the goals.
00:04:04.461 --> 00:04:06.985
I'm very clear on how much revenue I want us to bring in.
00:04:06.985 --> 00:04:10.587
I'm very clear what I want our online reputation to look like.
00:04:10.587 --> 00:04:13.151
I'm very clear on what I want the team to look like.
00:04:13.151 --> 00:04:18.797
I'm very clear and for our top objectives for the year, I'm very clear on how we get there.
00:04:18.797 --> 00:04:24.401
Very clear.
00:04:24.401 --> 00:04:25.706
I want you know because remember I said, this is not perfect.
00:04:25.706 --> 00:04:26.228
I need to understand this.
00:04:26.228 --> 00:04:33.271
It means that I have the clearest vision of the practice, where we're going to be at the end of the year, and I have the clearest vision of the pathway to get us there at the time.
00:04:33.271 --> 00:04:40.273
So, of course, week to week, month to month, we're looking like what's working, what's not working, what do we remove, what do we do more of.
00:04:40.273 --> 00:04:43.653
And so I'm not saying it was like, oh, we figured it out and we're done.
00:04:43.653 --> 00:04:50.437
We're still working it, but I have the clear version that I'm working with right now.
00:04:50.677 --> 00:04:56.622
It's very important we understand that, because sometimes people tell me, oh, I don't have any clarity, and these are people running an established business.
00:04:56.622 --> 00:05:02.124
I'm like chances are that's not necessarily true Like you have some clarity, but you want to get clear, right.
00:05:02.124 --> 00:05:09.815
But because we think, oh, I don't have any clarity, then we're not able to capture with any kind of precision what it is we're trying to do.
00:05:09.815 --> 00:05:12.028
For me, I capture it, I'm very clear.
00:05:12.028 --> 00:05:13.757
So I'm clear for my private practice.
00:05:13.757 --> 00:05:15.041
I'm clear for a marketing company.
00:05:15.041 --> 00:05:16.766
I'm clear for practice pilot.
00:05:16.766 --> 00:05:17.749
I'm clear for entrepreneur MD.
00:05:17.749 --> 00:05:19.279
I'm clear for all of these things.
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:23.442
And so, because of that, I don't wake up wondering what are we going to do?
00:05:23.442 --> 00:05:24.684
How are we going to get there?
00:05:24.684 --> 00:05:25.824
All of these things?
00:05:25.824 --> 00:05:27.045
I don't wonder about those things.
00:05:27.625 --> 00:05:39.872
If there's a shiny object that presents itself, I look, I'm like this doesn't line up with anything I'm trying to do or anything I want to choose which one is going to be right, like I have to choose which one is going to be, and I start working the path.
00:05:39.872 --> 00:05:51.286
So because of that, I do a lot less things.
00:05:51.286 --> 00:05:52.689
I do a lot less things.
00:05:52.689 --> 00:05:57.005
I'm not fuzzy, I'm not distracted by what other people are doing.
00:05:57.005 --> 00:06:02.045
I can literally look at it and go like, wow, that is so nice, I'm happy for them, and I keep it moving.
00:06:02.045 --> 00:06:04.348
It never occurs to me, oh, should I add this to my business?
00:06:04.348 --> 00:06:07.600
Except it's something that's in line with where I'm trying to go, but if it's not, it's not.
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.307
And I'm just like, wow, amazing for you.
00:06:09.307 --> 00:06:16.766
And so what that does is that it eliminates so many time wasters, so many time wasters.
00:06:16.766 --> 00:06:20.790
So I'm very clear this is the goal, this is the pathway that will get me to the goal.
00:06:21.132 --> 00:06:32.850
That's number one, number two, wow, now number two I'm so grateful I get to do, and that is, I operate in my zone of genius.
00:06:32.850 --> 00:06:34.673
I operate in my zone of genius.
00:06:34.673 --> 00:06:40.365
It's such a gift that I'm able to do that, but I know what it is and I operate in it.
00:06:40.365 --> 00:06:43.711
Now I'm going to give you some examples.
00:06:43.711 --> 00:07:02.588
But what makes this very, very important is that it puts me in a position where I am able to get a whole lot more done by doing a lot less right, like a whole lot done, the amount of stuff I can get done in half a day.
00:07:02.588 --> 00:07:08.779
I promise you will take some people weeks to a month to do it, but it's because of where I sit, okay, so let me tell you.
00:07:08.779 --> 00:07:09.785
Let me tell you what that is.
00:07:09.785 --> 00:07:12.656
And zone of genius I started learning this a long time ago.
00:07:12.656 --> 00:07:18.204
I think the first person I learned it from was Brian Tracy, and then, after that, I learned it from Michael Hyatt.
00:07:18.204 --> 00:07:26.423
You know this whole concept of the zone of genius, but I'll tell you what mine is currently okay, because it's been evolving.
00:07:26.423 --> 00:07:29.336
It's not entirely different, but it's been evolving, okay.
00:07:29.576 --> 00:07:45.865
So the first one is engineering coaching systems, right, and so I could be a coach and I could be very good at coaching, or I could be someone who engineers, builds coaching systems.
00:07:45.865 --> 00:07:49.886
So I'm building literally systems of transformation, right?
00:07:49.886 --> 00:07:54.004
So the Entree Indie Business School, for instance, is not quite a coaching program.
00:07:54.004 --> 00:07:54.807
You know what I mean.
00:07:54.807 --> 00:07:59.067
It's not just that, because there's so many other things that happen, right.
00:07:59.067 --> 00:08:02.245
We're like okay, how do we build the coaching piece?
00:08:02.245 --> 00:08:05.043
How do we build the curriculum piece?
00:08:05.043 --> 00:08:09.687
How do we build activities that will drive implementation?
00:08:09.687 --> 00:08:12.074
How do we build other systems of accountability?
00:08:12.074 --> 00:08:19.649
How do we build the community that will be the environment that is required for the doctors to thrive?
00:08:19.649 --> 00:08:31.637
It's a whole engineering project, right, and so that ability to create containers that will make people experience radical transformation, that's the zone of genius for me.
00:08:31.778 --> 00:08:42.847
Now, when you say zone of genius, it's not just something you like to do, it is something that has the potential to have the biggest impact in your business.
00:08:42.847 --> 00:08:47.985
Right and you're good at it and you like it.
00:08:47.985 --> 00:08:53.427
So it's a high value activity and you have competence there and you like it.
00:08:53.427 --> 00:08:57.927
So, for me, coaching systems, I could do that all day, every day, like all day, every day.
00:08:57.927 --> 00:08:59.354
And what is the potential impact Now?
00:08:59.354 --> 00:09:00.707
In the Entrepreneurial Business School, we have it started in every day.
00:09:00.707 --> 00:09:00.976
And what is the potential impact Now?
00:09:00.976 --> 00:09:05.690
In the Entrepreneurial Business School, we have decided in June of 2020, okay, june of 2020.
00:09:05.690 --> 00:09:08.482
And there are people who've been in it since June of 2020.
00:09:08.482 --> 00:09:10.751
We have a very high renewal rates.
00:09:10.751 --> 00:09:15.044
We have a very high rate of people who've been there two years, three years, four years, five years.
00:09:15.044 --> 00:09:22.466
And the reason for that is the coaching system right, like so, between the accountability and the community and the mentorship calls and all of these things.
00:09:22.466 --> 00:09:29.557
It's a place where they get the support they need and they're getting wild results and, like you know what we do, more of what works and less of what doesn't.
00:09:29.557 --> 00:09:32.355
So if you aren't joining the business school, it's working, let's go right.
00:09:32.355 --> 00:09:35.100
So it's very high value, right?
00:09:35.422 --> 00:09:42.615
The next thing that is my zone of genius is creating thing.
00:09:42.615 --> 00:09:46.942
That is my zone of genius is creating transformational content, whether that is on social media, email, podcast, youtube, all of that stuff.
00:09:46.942 --> 00:09:49.989
Now, what is the value of that?
00:09:49.989 --> 00:09:56.332
Well, my assignment is to disrupt the physician community and rewrite the narrative.
00:09:56.332 --> 00:10:06.979
Okay, the new norm for physicians now being this place, where we're free to practice medicine on our terms, free to live life on our terms, we have financial freedom, time freedom and freedom to pursue purpose.
00:10:06.979 --> 00:10:08.562
Like, we have the freedom to do that.
00:10:08.562 --> 00:10:26.326
And in order to do that, I'm going to need to have content that can change the mindsets, the ideologies, the philosophies, the way of acting, the way of getting results, the possibilities for physicians, whether they work with me or not, right?
00:10:26.326 --> 00:10:34.279
And so I do that through the podcast, I do that through a YouTube channel, I do that through social media, and it's such a game changer.
00:10:34.620 --> 00:10:37.486
Okay, so many stories I've heard over the years.
00:10:37.486 --> 00:10:39.258
Actually, why don't we do this?
00:10:39.258 --> 00:10:48.259
Take a screenshot of this podcast episode and then post it on your social media and just say, hey, this is what this podcast has made possible for me.
00:10:48.259 --> 00:10:53.217
Okay, and whatever that is, just put your story there and tag us hashtag EntreeMD.
00:10:53.217 --> 00:10:59.201
I'll come amplify it, I'll come make some noise, but I really want my heart to know like you're listening to the podcast.
00:10:59.201 --> 00:11:02.009
How is it making a difference in your life, in your business?
00:11:02.009 --> 00:11:02.330
Right?
00:11:02.330 --> 00:11:15.101
So it's very high value and it is one of the best employees in my business, because when people listen to the podcast, they're like, oh my goodness, if I'm getting all these wins from the podcast, what will happen if I actually work with Dr Una?
00:11:15.101 --> 00:11:16.600
They come in, everything changes.
00:11:17.022 --> 00:11:24.480
Okay, so it's very high value and I'm good at it and I like it, right, and so that's the second zone of genius.
00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:26.621
I want you to think about this already.
00:11:26.621 --> 00:11:36.140
If I build a coaching system that is able to create six, seven or multiple seven-figure entrepreneurs and I create this content, that's changing the lives of everybody who listens to it.
00:11:36.140 --> 00:11:41.655
And it's a nurturing tool, right, inviting people to come into the Ontario Empty Business School.
00:11:41.655 --> 00:11:44.782
Think about the results it's creating.
00:11:44.782 --> 00:11:45.722
It's two activities.
00:11:45.722 --> 00:11:49.657
It's two areas, okay, and then the third one.
00:11:49.657 --> 00:11:51.321
The third one is collaboration.
00:11:51.321 --> 00:11:53.726
Okay, and that has two parts to it.
00:11:53.726 --> 00:11:55.839
In a way, it's collaborating with my team.
00:11:55.839 --> 00:11:58.125
How am I creating results through my team?
00:11:58.166 --> 00:12:01.417
I have, you know, great teams across all of these companies.
00:12:01.417 --> 00:12:32.557
I don't work in any of them by myself and I have people who do phenomenal work or people who can you know, like, for instance, people who could invite me to be a guest on a certain podcast or open a door for me to speak at a conference, or they're like, oh, I have a community of, you know, 10,000 private practice owners.
00:12:32.557 --> 00:12:33.720
Would you come talk to them?
00:12:33.720 --> 00:12:34.802
And things like that.
00:12:34.802 --> 00:12:40.971
These are all people that I can collaborate with right, and so these three activities are very high level.
00:12:40.971 --> 00:12:43.437
I'm really good at them and I like doing them.
00:12:43.437 --> 00:12:49.089
I love doing them most of them right and so I operate from there.
00:12:49.089 --> 00:12:50.619
I spend a lot of time there.
00:12:50.658 --> 00:13:00.948
I spend most of my time working on the things within my zone of genius, and that leads to high level impact in less time, not more time, because we're talking three things Now.
00:13:00.948 --> 00:13:04.361
It's not only three activities, but it's three categories of activities.
00:13:04.361 --> 00:13:10.144
This is huge and you may not be able to find it right away, but you want to start thinking what is my zone of genius?
00:13:10.144 --> 00:13:15.206
You ask the people around you, like, if somebody asked you what your my zone of genius is, what would you say?
00:13:15.206 --> 00:13:18.864
And it's worth exploring it, and it's okay if you can't figure it out right away.
00:13:18.864 --> 00:13:22.793
That's okay, worth exploring it, and it's okay if you can't figure it out right away.
00:13:22.793 --> 00:13:23.335
That's okay, okay.
00:13:27.575 --> 00:13:29.899
The third thing is I am ruthless when it comes to how I spend my time.
00:13:29.899 --> 00:13:30.982
I'm ruthless about how I spend my time.
00:13:30.982 --> 00:13:32.346
So let me explain what that means.
00:13:32.346 --> 00:13:33.548
It means a number of things.
00:13:33.548 --> 00:13:38.446
It means that I spend most of my time doing my highest level activities.
00:13:38.446 --> 00:13:40.479
Okay, so my zone of genius activities.
00:13:40.479 --> 00:13:41.802
I spend most of my time doing that.
00:13:41.802 --> 00:13:43.587
That's what that means.
00:13:43.587 --> 00:13:47.496
It also means I'm clear on the 80% activities.
00:13:47.496 --> 00:13:47.756
Right?
00:13:47.756 --> 00:13:50.296
These are the activities that you know other people can do.
00:13:50.296 --> 00:13:54.289
Maybe they should be thrown away altogether or they move the needle very little.
00:13:54.289 --> 00:13:57.177
I am ruthless about keeping those things off my calendar.
00:13:57.177 --> 00:13:59.609
Ruthless, ruthless, ruthless about keeping them off.
00:13:59.609 --> 00:14:09.687
Because if I can spend most of my time doing my zone of genius things, a little time doing the other stuff, then guess what will happen?
00:14:09.687 --> 00:14:11.432
I get more done by doing less.
00:14:11.432 --> 00:14:12.114
Right?
00:14:12.114 --> 00:14:13.177
So I'm very rootless.
00:14:13.177 --> 00:14:18.294
And so when I get invitations to do things that I'm not supposed to do, my answer is no.
00:14:18.294 --> 00:14:19.938
My answer is no.
00:14:20.065 --> 00:14:28.496
You might be thinking well, dr Una, like, I'm not at a place where I can spend most of my time operating in my zone of genius, because I'm just not there.
00:14:28.496 --> 00:14:30.740
I don't have the team, I don't have all of those things.
00:14:30.740 --> 00:14:34.253
Remember what we said in the beginning this is a progressive thing, right?
00:14:34.253 --> 00:14:37.969
And so I want you to think of it in this way.
00:14:37.969 --> 00:14:40.974
Could I spend one more hour on my zone of genius?
00:14:40.974 --> 00:14:45.129
Could I get this off my plate to a team member?
00:14:45.129 --> 00:14:54.647
I already have, because what I have found in talking to physicians is many physicians are paying team members to do things and the physicians are still doing them.
00:14:54.647 --> 00:15:01.336
Okay, so let me get this one you know this one thing off my plate so that I can spend more time.
00:15:01.336 --> 00:15:04.988
It could be an hour, it could be two hours, it could be three hours in this zone of genius activity.
00:15:04.988 --> 00:15:06.289
Maybe for you.
00:15:06.289 --> 00:15:11.938
I mean, the big win is you find what your zone of genius is right, like, yeah, okay, so maybe that's even the thing.
00:15:12.664 --> 00:15:22.148
But the way I like to think about it is if I was a savvy billion dollar investor, how would I think about spending money?
00:15:22.148 --> 00:15:24.913
How would I think about investing money?
00:15:24.913 --> 00:15:37.753
That's the same way I want to think about investing my time, because time is more valuable than money, right, and if someone can be diligent in managing money, I can be diligent in managing my time.
00:15:37.753 --> 00:15:39.831
Okay, I like to use the word invest better.
00:15:39.831 --> 00:15:41.770
Okay, all right, so that's number three.
00:15:41.770 --> 00:15:43.289
Okay, what are the things I do?
00:15:43.289 --> 00:15:49.514
Number four I treat team building as a top, top, top priority.
00:15:49.514 --> 00:15:54.076
Okay, so it's either number one, number two or number three, but it's all the way up there, okay.
00:15:54.566 --> 00:16:05.095
When I started off, team building was like oh man, you know, like building this team, you know, talking to people, telling them what to do, coaching them to do it properly, training them to do it properly, holding them accountable, evaluating them.
00:16:05.095 --> 00:16:13.029
I don't want to do, probably, holding them accountable, evaluating them.
00:16:13.029 --> 00:16:13.852
I don't want to do any of those stuff.
00:16:13.852 --> 00:16:16.078
So it was like this thing that was on the side, that was a bother, that was optional, and all of that stuff.
00:16:16.078 --> 00:16:19.971
Let me tell you something I treat team building as importantly as I treated sales in the earlier days of my business.
00:16:19.971 --> 00:16:22.317
When I say that, please don't think I mean I don't sell.
00:16:22.317 --> 00:16:23.527
I sell all day, every day.
00:16:23.527 --> 00:16:24.389
It doesn't know what I mean.
00:16:24.389 --> 00:16:29.099
What I do mean is that it's a top, top, top level activity.
00:16:29.099 --> 00:16:30.772
I prioritize it.
00:16:31.325 --> 00:16:52.755
I spent, literally I was working with my office man, my practice administrator for my private practice, and we had a one hour training session and the entire session was co-creating her calendar, like troubleshooting her calendar, so we can discover how she can spend most of her time functioning on her highest level activity.
00:16:52.755 --> 00:16:54.683
So that means what do we need to delegate?
00:16:54.683 --> 00:16:56.950
In order to delegate, what team member do we need to train?
00:16:56.950 --> 00:16:57.631
All of this stuff?
00:16:57.631 --> 00:17:10.009
We worked on it for an hour and to me that was some of my most important work, because, think about it If she's not able to use 80% of her time in her zone of genius, what does that mean for the company?
00:17:10.009 --> 00:17:17.776
What does that mean for her, like her feeling about how she's doing and what she's bringing to the table, and the level of significance and all that?
00:17:17.776 --> 00:17:23.230
Of course, the way you do one thing is the way you do everything, so of course, the ripple effect is going to be seen in her personal life, right?
00:17:23.230 --> 00:17:27.905
So I spent a whole hour and that's what we did just working on that.
00:17:27.925 --> 00:17:37.938
Right, I see team building, whether it's recruiting, whether it's interviewing, whether it's onboarding, doing their ongoing trainings, the evaluations, all of those things high, high, top level activity.
00:17:37.938 --> 00:17:38.705
Why?
00:17:38.705 --> 00:17:48.171
Because the more highly competent team members I have, the more I'm able to get done without it being tied to my time.
00:17:48.171 --> 00:17:49.335
So I spend time.
00:17:49.335 --> 00:17:55.417
I train my EA, I train my salespeople, I train my office manager, I train my content production team.
00:17:55.417 --> 00:18:01.846
I train everybody and I don't see it as a waste of time and I don't see it as a bother and I don't see it as an aside.
00:18:01.846 --> 00:18:04.009
It is some of my most important work.
00:18:04.009 --> 00:18:15.231
So because of that, I can then have little to do or a lot less to do in the day to day, because I've trained so many people.
00:18:15.231 --> 00:18:16.375
But it's work.
00:18:16.375 --> 00:18:20.891
It's a whole lot of work, okay, okay, but it's fun, it's good work.
00:18:20.891 --> 00:18:22.194
The return on investment is huge.
00:18:22.194 --> 00:18:25.412
So the reason why that's important is because your team will be a multiplier.
00:18:25.412 --> 00:18:28.513
They will help you have more impact, more financial freedom, more time freedom.
00:18:28.513 --> 00:18:29.961
They're multipliers, okay.
00:18:29.961 --> 00:18:31.366
And number five is just like it.
00:18:31.647 --> 00:18:35.724
I treat system building as a top level activity Top, top, top, top, top, right.
00:18:35.724 --> 00:18:38.070
So again, I identify as an engineer.
00:18:38.070 --> 00:18:41.077
I treat it that way because, my goodness, okay.
00:18:41.077 --> 00:18:48.945
So think about it this way right Before there were many trees, there was a tree, and that tree let's use like a fruit tree, okay.
00:18:48.945 --> 00:18:51.575
So let's say an orange tree or a mango tree.
00:18:51.575 --> 00:19:01.637
Now that tree had fruit, that had seeds, and those seeds had more trees in them, that had more fruits, that had more seeds, and on and on and on.
00:00:00.161 --> 00:00:03.009
00:00:03.009 --> 00:00:10.785
00:00:10.785 --> 00:00:12.564
00:00:14.589 --> 00:00:27.065
00:00:27.065 --> 00:00:28.911
00:00:33.981 --> 00:00:40.862
00:00:40.862 --> 00:00:47.634
00:00:47.634 --> 00:00:51.787
00:00:51.787 --> 00:00:54.332
00:00:54.332 --> 00:00:56.564
00:00:56.564 --> 00:00:58.548
00:00:58.548 --> 00:01:03.023
00:01:03.023 --> 00:01:04.808
00:01:04.808 --> 00:01:07.743
00:01:08.144 --> 00:01:10.028
00:01:10.028 --> 00:01:14.911
00:01:14.911 --> 00:01:16.397
00:01:16.397 --> 00:01:19.284
00:01:19.284 --> 00:01:25.923
00:01:25.923 --> 00:01:28.031
00:01:28.031 --> 00:01:29.817
00:01:29.817 --> 00:01:43.441
00:01:43.441 --> 00:01:44.424
00:01:44.424 --> 00:01:45.966
00:01:45.966 --> 00:01:54.430
00:01:54.430 --> 00:01:55.171
00:01:55.171 --> 00:01:57.102
00:01:57.164 --> 00:02:06.067
00:02:06.067 --> 00:02:06.588
00:02:06.588 --> 00:02:07.950
00:02:07.950 --> 00:02:13.906
00:02:13.906 --> 00:02:24.193
00:02:24.193 --> 00:02:28.787
00:02:28.787 --> 00:02:34.567
00:02:34.567 --> 00:02:42.893
00:02:42.893 --> 00:02:58.189
00:02:58.189 --> 00:03:08.884
00:03:08.884 --> 00:03:10.669
00:03:10.849 --> 00:03:13.062
00:03:13.062 --> 00:03:17.919
00:03:17.919 --> 00:03:32.203
00:03:32.203 --> 00:03:35.449
00:03:35.449 --> 00:03:40.006
00:03:40.006 --> 00:03:47.829
00:03:47.829 --> 00:03:59.191
00:03:59.611 --> 00:04:04.461
00:04:04.461 --> 00:04:06.985
00:04:06.985 --> 00:04:10.587
00:04:10.587 --> 00:04:13.151
00:04:13.151 --> 00:04:18.797
00:04:18.797 --> 00:04:24.401
00:04:24.401 --> 00:04:25.706
00:04:25.706 --> 00:04:26.228
00:04:26.228 --> 00:04:33.271
00:04:33.271 --> 00:04:40.273
00:04:40.273 --> 00:04:43.653
00:04:43.653 --> 00:04:50.437
00:04:50.677 --> 00:04:56.622
00:04:56.622 --> 00:05:02.124
00:05:02.124 --> 00:05:09.815
00:05:09.815 --> 00:05:12.028
00:05:12.028 --> 00:05:13.757
00:05:13.757 --> 00:05:15.041
00:05:15.041 --> 00:05:16.766
00:05:16.766 --> 00:05:17.749
00:05:17.749 --> 00:05:19.279
00:05:19.279 --> 00:05:23.442
00:05:23.442 --> 00:05:24.684
00:05:24.684 --> 00:05:25.824
00:05:25.824 --> 00:05:27.045
00:05:27.625 --> 00:05:39.872
00:05:39.872 --> 00:05:51.286
00:05:51.286 --> 00:05:52.689
00:05:52.689 --> 00:05:57.005
00:05:57.005 --> 00:06:02.045
00:06:02.045 --> 00:06:04.348
00:06:04.348 --> 00:06:07.600
00:06:07.600 --> 00:06:09.307
00:06:09.307 --> 00:06:16.766
00:06:16.766 --> 00:06:20.790
00:06:21.132 --> 00:06:32.850
00:06:32.850 --> 00:06:34.673
00:06:34.673 --> 00:06:40.365
00:06:40.365 --> 00:06:43.711
00:06:43.711 --> 00:07:02.588
00:07:02.588 --> 00:07:08.779
00:07:08.779 --> 00:07:09.785
00:07:09.785 --> 00:07:12.656
00:07:12.656 --> 00:07:18.204
00:07:18.204 --> 00:07:26.423
00:07:26.423 --> 00:07:29.336
00:07:29.576 --> 00:07:45.865
00:07:45.865 --> 00:07:49.886
00:07:49.886 --> 00:07:54.004
00:07:54.004 --> 00:07:54.807
00:07:54.807 --> 00:07:59.067
00:07:59.067 --> 00:08:02.245
00:08:02.245 --> 00:08:05.043
00:08:05.043 --> 00:08:09.687
00:08:09.687 --> 00:08:12.074
00:08:12.074 --> 00:08:19.649
00:08:19.649 --> 00:08:31.637
00:08:31.778 --> 00:08:42.847
00:08:42.847 --> 00:08:47.985
00:08:47.985 --> 00:08:53.427
00:08:53.427 --> 00:08:57.927
00:08:57.927 --> 00:08:59.354
00:08:59.354 --> 00:09:00.707
00:09:00.707 --> 00:09:00.976
00:09:00.976 --> 00:09:05.690
00:09:05.690 --> 00:09:08.482
00:09:08.482 --> 00:09:10.751
00:09:10.751 --> 00:09:15.044
00:09:15.044 --> 00:09:22.466
00:09:22.466 --> 00:09:29.557
00:09:29.557 --> 00:09:32.355
