  1. I know whatever I do, I'll do to the best of my ability, you know? So if it doesn't go the way I intend, I'll find the next thing. I'm smart enough to do that.

  2. Think inherently, I just see the world as a neutral or at best positive. I don't want to think that everybody running is running from an explosion. It's just not the way I choose to see the world.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  3. Because I see the world as neutral, right? I don't think the world has an opinion on me, but I see my people as positive. And I know there's lots of negativity out there, but I don't see the world as that kind of place in general. Whereas some people I think are geared up to think the worst. It's like, you know, the whole fight and flight thing. Some people are geared. I think I'd probably die, right? Because I'd be geared up to see a stick as a stick. Whereas actually it makes much more sense to see a stick as a snake because on the one time it is a snake, you don't die. Whereas I go, it's a stick and then get bitten and die. So I think if it were 200,000 years ago, I would be no good. But actually in today's society, I do all right because I just like to see.

  4. I said this to Sarah just the other day. We were having a conversation, quite a heated conversation about something. And she's, I call her worst case scenario, Sarah, quite a lot. She often will catastrophize. And I said, You're the kind of person that sees someone running, and you assume they're running from

  5. Right, and I understand it because it's how we, even down to like, you know, a simple individual level, we all stereotype. Yeah, prejudice. Yeah, I mean, that's just like psychologically, it makes sense. Because totally, and it gives us sort of like categories to work from Walking down the street and you see every single person as an individual is sensory overload. So you see someone in, say, a certain clothing and a suit, you're like, oh, okay, you're a banker. He might not be. He might be like wearing a suit, but in your head, that's what he's done because it's easier just to sort of carry on with your day, compartmentalize.

  6. It's totally a box, and in the same way that, you know, an accountant might not want to just be called an accountant. You know, there's more to him. He's got his own life and whatever. I just feel like it's... It's pigeonholing, and it's tricky in this industry because people don't like you being good at more than one thing. If you're written about in the press or whatever, it's probably for you entrepreneur, I'd imagine, right? For me, it's YouTuber still. And actually, like I say, that's a small part of, I upload one video a week and I've only been doing that since we found out we were pregnant because now it's exciting to talk about stuff. Other than that, I haven't uploaded for six months. You know what I mean? So there's more to us. We're allowed to explore new avenues, do new things. But I think.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  7. Yeah, I think it doesn't really. You know what? It's one of those things where you meet people and the second question they ask you is what you do for a living, the first being, hi, what's your name, right? And there's more to all of us than what we do. Like I said earlier, my job isn't what I do, not who I am, right? So I don't like being... Jim Chapman, YouTuber

  8. All of that. But, you know, if it doesn't happen, it won't be through lack of trying. And I won't hold it against myself. I'm not going to be, I won't feel like a failure because I don't really believe in that. I believe you can be a failure if you quit and you never try. You never try at all, right?

  9. Don't have it in my other part of my job, and I'd love that. But I'm still new in it. I've only been doing it. You know, like I say, I've been writing the first screen paper for three and a half years, but that only got to a point where it was worth talking about a year ago, you know? So it's still very much in its infancy. So I just hope that I get to a point where people... Like my stuff, and go, you know what, you're really good at this, let's work with you on this project.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  10. I hope I do. I hope I think what it would take is a project that is very successful, say with my writing, and then people come to me rather than me constantly knocking on block. You know what I mean? It'd be really nice to be in a position to go, hey, you wrote that thing and it did really well. I want to give you opportunities now rather than me chasing it. And I have that in terms of the social media. Like I'm very lucky to be in the position I'm in, which is sort of I've been doing it for a very long time and have a good name for myself. So people often come to me.

  11. Want to constantly strive for more? I don't feel like it's necessary. I want to be really happy with what I've got. And I have that in spades with my people, my family, my friends, Sarah, my baby on the way. I've got more contentment than I can throw a stick at. I don't have it in terms of my career because I'm constantly worried about where it goes.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  12. I mean, for me, if I were saying it about myself, it would mean that I, in terms of work. It would mean that I was respected in my field. It would mean that the people who my contemporaries appreciated my input. But more than that, if it were just in general success, it would mean that I got out, okay. You know what I mean? I came out the other side of this. I'm content. For me, contentment is sort of like a. Goal, you know, and I don't think it is for many people. I don't want to stress about stuff unnecessarily. I don't.

  13. And the difference in time it will take. So he's constantly having meetings and constantly churning stuff out, whereas my stuff takes a lot longer. So I often feel like I'm not pulling my weight. But then I'll send him, like I just sent him a document yesterday, which is 20,000 words long, which took me two weeks to write. And it's like an entire breakdown, beat by beat of how I see this new thing working. And he's like, oh, so you're doing stuff. So it's weird, but I think we both are really invested. We're both really good at what we do. We're successful in our own rights. But I think there's something special about working on something that's just for passion. We don't need this to work. We just really, really want it to, and that's really exciting, you know?

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  14. Yeah, I am. I'm always working on stuff because, like I said, I just love creating. So I have just started a production company with my friend. We started in January or February last year, so just as the world explodes. But actually, do you know what? It's given us the chance to really knuckle down. And we've got some really good headway so far. We're having lots of. Big conversations with important people, and people seem to like our stuff. We do scripted and unscripted, so I head up the unscripted, sorry, I head up the scripted stuff, so my writing. So far we've got a couple of films on the go. Writing a book. I'm also working on a show, like a series. And we've got a bunch of unscripted stuff that I also chip in on, but that's very much James, my business partner is very much his sort of...

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  15. It was an insult, yeah, yeah, yeah. That's a problem if it comes from someone that I care about. Yeah, do you know what I'm really lucky because Sarah does all of that. She actually does most of everything, which is great. And genuinely, I'm very fortunate to have her. She is everything that I want. And I use the word want and not need because I think that's the difference between codependency and a healthy relationship. I don't need her. I would be fine. My life would continue. But she brings a little spice, a little something extra. You know what I mean? And it's much more enjoyable to have her by my side for everything for sure.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  16. I would say gifts, I think it might be more to somebody else. I think that my job comes with a lot of stuff. So I don't really care about it so much. I'd agree with that. Like I said earlier, we got lots of hate and it bounces off. But if the hate comes from someone I love, that's an issue. If it's an insult.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  17. This is going to drive me mental for the rest of my life. Like I said, apparently I am the Mozart type of Capricorn. And every time I do anything that's sort of Capricorny now, and I never really believed in this sort of stuff. Every time I do anything now, I'm like, damn it, my bloody stars told me or something

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  18. Do you know what? I tend not to, not that I don't believe in that stuff, I just tend not to. Ignorance is this sometimes. If I'm super aware of it, then I don't know if it's like I said earlier with the therapy, right? When you're aware of your thing, your stuff. And then you do it more, you're like, ah, and until you learn the tools of how to overcome it or how to at least challenge it, it's frustrating. And I feel like if I learned that I was this way inclined, every time I did it, I had to go, like apparently I'm like the archetypal Capricorn.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  19. I'm with someone and they just go, Yeah, all right, and they just tolerate me. I'm out the door because I'm too good for that. I have value and everybody does. I'm not saying me as an individual. Each and every single person has their value, right? They deserve to be appreciated for that value. And if they're with somebody who doesn't appreciate it, takes it for granted, whatever, then you're not with the right person. You know, I think that you need someone who respects you and appreciates you and who sees your worth. Don't see myself that clearly sometimes. And Sarah will often say, like, you know, the text she sent me saying, you know, my baby's hit the jackpot with the dad that they've got coming up is, you know, that means a lot to me. I haven't had a chance to reply yet, but I will after this. And that is a really big.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  20. Perhaps yeah, perhaps I just fully believe. And maybe this is why I write Love Well, I fully believe that if I'm with someone, They've got it all, right? I don't believe in, I don't mean that in like a really codependent way because that's like the worst. You know, if you're kind of encouraging each other into something, I feel like you both need to live your life independently, but make a good team. And when you team up together, good stuff happens, basically. And, yeah, perhaps, but I think that I... For me, if I'm Not if I don't feel like I'm valued enough, if I don't feel like my I say sacrifice, it's not a sacrifice, but if I feel like what I'm giving isn't appreciated, but my worst nightmare is being tolerated.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  21. I want to know that I'm valued, and that's the thing for me. I don't care Because if I'm going to give someone my all, and like I said earlier, if I'm in love with someone, they get everything. They get all my stuff if it's stuff they care about. They get all my time, they get everything, right? And I need to know that there's value in me giving myself.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  22. Appreciating reciprocated. You know, I know it's complicated, it doesn't happen all the time. There are times when you're in a bad mood or whatever, but as I was walking here, Sarah texts me saying, I know I haven't said it those because I'm just feeling really sick, you know, with the pregnancy and everything. But she went, my baby has hit the jackpot with a dad, you know, and like, I just want you to know that I really do appreciate you. I haven't said it much lately, and that's all I need.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  23. Okay. Partners that offer me, I think. I need to, like I said earlier, if I love someone, I trust them 100%, right? I expect the same in return. I can't deal with jealousy. I can't deal with someone checking up on me. If I'm out or... If I'm doing something, I'm not going to humor it because it's not me and I don't want anyone to consider that it might be me. And if as my partner, you're thinking, oh, he's out somewhere, he's with someone doing something he shouldn't be, then I haven't got time for it. So I expect that. But also, I expect to be...

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  24. Really, I've never experienced it this way. It's really lovely, it's really fruitful, it's really rewarding, it's really dynamic and it's really reciprocal.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  25. I still look at us as very successful. Yeah, like I said, we ticked all our boxes. The next thing for us was what I'm now doing with Sarah. And I see now that Tanya would not have been the person to do that with, you know, and Sarah 100% is. And there are things that I have with her that I've never experienced before. And I'm very lucky. Like I said earlier, I feel like when Tanya and I started going separate directions, separate ways, it was earlier than I think either of us kind of gave credence to. And so, if we had done, if you know, if I had done the things I'm now doing with Sarah Wittano, I don't think our it would have been for the best, you know. Whereas now I know that Sarah's my person. I've learned a lot. I know what I'm worth. I know what I can expect from a partner. And it's...

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  26. Fix that, and I still really value, aren't you? We're still mates I'm not going to make a big thing. I try to just, when it comes up in conversation, I'll just say, yeah, it's this. We grew apart, right? Because I respect her and I value her. And I. I don't want to keep bringing it up all the time. Because also it doesn't define either of us. People break up all the time. Unfortunately, they don't always break up in public, but it doesn't define us. We both still have our careers. We both still have our lives. We both still have our people. And that's very important, it's just a shame that it comes up so frequently and it's so untrue.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  27. Unfounded. But there's a point where you just have to let it go. You can't change everyone's opinion about it. Like I said, there's like a... A load of people watching you, they all have opinions on you, good or bad. And the perks of this job is that we get paid well for it and that we get to live a bloody adventure. Like it's so cool. I never expected this in my life. I never expected to be able to do the stuff I get to do and live the life I get to live. It was never planned out for me. I never had like the tools in place for it. I found myself here and I've grabbed on with both hands and I've worked really hard to maintain it. So that's the perk of being in a position I'm in. Unfortunately, it comes with a few drawbacks, which is that people make opinions on you. And you just have to not care so much.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  28. I've addressed it. I'm trying to. I moved on first. As far as the world is concerned, you know what I mean? It's really hard to say this without sort of making accusations or whatever. But as far as the world knows, I moved on first. I should stop there It's tricky to be accused of something when they've only got limited information to use, right? So because people see that I moved on first, they think that perhaps I cheated. So for me saying I didn't cheat, and for Sarah saying I didn't cheat with Jim, doesn't necessarily prove anything, right? Because of course we're going to say that because we want to deny our infidelity, right? And it's tricky to keep going back to and keep saying the same thing, especially when it's so.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  29. I would say Tanya's never said anything. She's never come out and called me a cheater. She hasn't done the opposite like I have, if I'm being totally frank about it. Like, you know, I've sort of said there was nothing.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  30. And write what they want without any sort of consequences. But when you give them consequences, they'll suddenly be like, oh, wow, you've noticed me. Should I say a really funny?

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  31. I really enjoyed it. I actually found that good fun because by drawing attention to it, these people were then like, oh my God, I love you. You're the best. Because obviously I've let them know that I've seen it and that I'm not tolerating bullshit, but also I don't care enough that I'm going to write something really negative back. I'm just sort of like, yeah, I see that. I acknowledge it. I am here. I'm also a human. And it's, yeah, it's a really interesting sort of phenomenon that people.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  32. Yeah, you also guarantee that when I do, like, for example, when I announce that Sarah and I were pregnant, I went on Twitter and I was trending. And like, I haven't trended for years. I was like, oh, this is fun. I haven't trended for so long. So I was going through it. And 99% of it was really positive. But there was a lot of it that was just like, you know, a little bit of hate. And I had a really good time responding to some of it. Not like I wasn't saying anything like, for example, someone was like, Jim Chapman still exists and he's not with Tanya. And he's having a baby. Who knew? And I just retweeted it and responded, I know, right? Well, turn up for the books. I am. I'm still alive. Who knew? So nothing like, I didn't respond to real negativity, just people going, wow, that's like, that's a funny old story. Oh, it's not Tanya.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  33. That's the only reason it's me. Because there's real world consequences. I totally agree. I think people should be some sort of like identification process when you set up an account. I totally agree with it because the amount I get, the amount Sarah gets is a real bloody shame as well, because especially because these people are like supposed to be, and I use this in inverted commas, fans are supposed to care about my life, my existence. They're supposed to, you know, they followed me for a reason. Yeah. And I refuse to believe, especially because I like to think I'm a force for positivity. I talk real talk and I share real things. But even when I'm talking about mental health or Bigger issue, I do so from a stance of positivity, right? At least I try to, so I refuse to believe that somebody is that. Negative or hates me that much

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  34. I don't have to explain myself to anyone should I not wish to, right? Simple. I am confident in my ability and my decisions that I'm like, this is the path I'm choosing and you can like it or lump it, basically. But I felt like making an example. I didn't out anyone. I didn't say any names. I didn't, you know, share any usernames, but I felt like making an example of that person, especially with it being so out of character for me to do so would have had overall a positive consequence for the people who were thinking it but weren't writing it or the people that were thinking of writing it and actually do you know what sarah's getting much less of it now i'm getting much less of it now um so i think in a way it was almost like cost benefit analysis in a way you know

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  35. Sort of like minimal backlash, minimal energy, negative energy, right? Because we didn't have any towards each other at all. But when it comes to When it comes to me being called a cheat or whatever, whatever, it's fine. It bounces back off. I hold my head high. Everybody who I know and care about and respect and love knows what really happened. And that's what really matters to me. I don't care. But when it comes to somebody. Calling my pregnant fianc ⁇ the names they called her and saying that my baby should be miscarried. That's where I draw the line.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  36. And also, I was very mad, and perhaps I should have let Calla heads prevail, but actually the amount of support I had off the back of it, people saying, do you know what? Bloody two rights stand up for Sarah, stand up for yourself, stand up for your child. And we've had two years of it, right? Because me and Tanya broke up just over two years ago. Me and Sarah got together I don't know. Like, as far as the world is concerned, a few months later, but obviously that wasn't it because the world only found out me entirely broke up when we decided to tell them. We only decided to tell them when we did because the press found out. So actually it was much earlier than anyone realizes. Because we were trying to get our heads around it and work out how to do it with minimal

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  37. And people can Say things thinking there's no repercussions. I lost my shit the other day on social media because, and I never address it. I very much of the, like I said earlier, I'm inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. So I can take hate. I've got a thick skin. It bounces straight off. I don't care. Like this is my job. It's not a personal reflection on me. So whatever. But somebody had DM'd Sarah a bunch of pictures of my old relationship, my previous life, and said, you'll never match up to her and then had sent another one saying, your child deserved to be miscarried. And I lost my shit and I'd never behaved this way online, but I went straight to my Instagram stories and I told the person, I said, fuck you to the person.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  38. And it just so happens that I come with a bit of an audience who have opinions on things. And, you know, we all gossip, right? We've all got opinions on things. I watch people go through breakups on TV or I watch the drama with, say, Megan and Harry or whatever. And I have my thoughts and my feelings on it. But of course, I'm not going to DM them about it. And I think that is the issue that on the internet there's a sort of anonymity anonymity

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  39. The audience to think of who make assumptions, right? And I've lost count of the amount of times I've been called a cheater. And poor old Sarah gets called my mistress constantly. I didn't even know Sarah existed. Like, she was not a person to me until well after we broke up, you know, like I met her on an app. And like, I'm really tempted at some point sometimes to get the app. I haven't got it anymore, but I want to re-download it and find our conversation. Go, look, we started talking on this date just to prove the point because it's not. Sarah didn't sign up for this shit. You know, she fell in love with me.

    2021-04-26 · The Diary of a CEO · Jim Chapman: Overcoming Failure Anxiety, Finding Love & Life-Changing Therapy · IDENTIFIED FROM THE TRANSCRIPT

  40. Yeah, it wasn't hard as a couple because we were both knew we deserved better, right? We both knew we're like, this isn't working. And we took a long time to have the conversation because I think we both tried for a while. We're like, oh, come back round. It'll come back around. But we're not stupid. We both knew we deserved better. When we actually had the conversation, it was for both of us quite freeing, emotional because of all the time we had together, but quite freeing. Of course, you then got

  41. Totally, I look back at it now and I realize that actually it probably was a small incline or decline, whichever you want to put it, but it at some point becomes insurmountable, becomes a chasm you can't leap anymore, right? So I look back at it and realized that perhaps it was, it started much earlier than either of us anticipated. Even either of us realized. And we just kind of kept getting more and more distant until eventually we were just roommates, basically.

  42. To impossible, yeah. We were together for 12 years, and most of that time was wonderful, you know, it was really great. Like I say, we conquered the world together. We were both part of that first breed of influences, social media people, and we had a wicked time. And then we grew up together. It was as simple as growing up in slightly different directions, you know, and at some point, you know, are you going to

  43. You know, I'm never going to do any of that because if I love someone, I'm all in. And that for me is really important. If you get your fingers burnt, then all right, then they get one chance, you know, that's my life.

  44. I don't know. I think I'm a bit of an old romantic. And it comes down. I think it really for me comes down to how you feel, love. You can feel love and you can put pen to paper, you can write love. And I pride myself on trusting and loving. I'm not a jealous person. I'm not going to micromanage a relationship or anything like that. If I love someone, I trust them implicitly. They can do as they wish. They can go out with the boys, whatever. I'm never going to go, oh, who did you meet and what happened? I'm never going to like check their phone

  45. I don't know actually, I know my strength when it comes to writing. And it's one of those things where, to begin with, we've all got imposter syndrome, right? Constantly, I still got it 10 years on, but I know I'm good at that. I know I can send the script somewhere that might not like it. It might not be the thing for them. And then I get told no quite a lot. But invariably, they say, do you know what? Great script. You'd have done a really good job there. So I am confident in my ability there. And I know my strengths are dialogue because I write how people talk, but also get the point across. Like I can't, I'm the worst person to talk to film with because if I'm watching something, I'm like, people don't talk like that. What is going? But also love. I just think I've got.

  46. Listen, there's oftentimes a thing will come to me and it's a place I've never been. I will tend not to request a free trip because honestly my time is more valuable than the money I can potentially earn, so I would rather pay my money to go somewhere and switch off and read a book, do the crossword puzzle, hang out, you know, because I value that much more than the money. I think that's the thing. I think some people put their value in money, in my view, too high. I don't value it like that. I think what's most important, what I value more is people and time.

  47. Very easy. I mean, you know, without sounding like a real moron, it's very easy for me to call Trippin if I want to. Yeah, of course. I email a PR and say, oh, I want to go to Dubai. And they'll go, all right, when do you want to go? But I tend not to because...

  48. Absolutely hard work, hard work. I haven't got to where I am by switching off whenever I choose to. You know what I mean? I've got here because I work harder than I should. And that's a massive sacrifice because I've missed out on moments. I've missed out on... Know, like, there are times where I should just be more present with Sarah, but I'm too busy working. You know, I miss out on things, but I get to go on the helicopter. But, you know, more than that, I get to live a really cool existence. Like I love my job. So it's really difficult. The way I kind of cross that T dot that I, I, I, I, I, I suppose, is that I will very often much rather pay for a holiday and have an actual holiday. Yeah. Rather than just call in a trip

  49. Being in the moment. And unfortunately, that is the job. We have to tell the world we've done something. Otherwise, it hasn't happened, right? And there's no point taking me on that really cool experience because I haven't told anyone about it. You know, so that there's definitely a dichotomy there in that you need to prove that you've done it and you need to show your enjoyment, but you need to also not let that take you out of the moment. And that's a fine line.

  50. Swap seats with you. The pilot came over the whatever it said and said, oh, don't swap seats because you'll unbalance the helicopter. The guy was so pissed off. I said, no, I want to swap. I'm like, well, no, because you'll kill us now. So it's a bit different. I offered you my seat when I didn't think we were going to die for doing it. And he sold so much because he couldn't get the photo he wanted. And I'm like, that for me really, really kind of is the epitome of not enjoying the moment. Like, just enjoy the bloody helicopter ride around Manhattan, you idiot.
