Today Jepson talks to a good friend of his, Scott Paul, who has done a lot of great things and created various businesses, his first being a drone business in 2008 after he realized how useful these would be in a time when helicopters were more often used, but very costly. He spent all his money on this little startup and hiring an employee, but it quickly failed, which was rough, but it was a good first lesson in entrepreneurship. He immediately went from there to the next thing, creating another business and selling it, and then worked with Disney.

“It’s never on my mind to ‘Oh I gotta go to work’ or ‘I gotta put in hours for this person.’ and it hasn’t been for 12 years, and that gives me a little bit of freedom to ask ‘What do I want to achieve? What do I want to do? Work on? Accomplish?’ I will not ever give that up. I will be out here in a TP zenned out before I ever go back. I will keep that time freedom ‘til my dying day.” 7:26
