“So I’ve seen life as one long learning process. And if I see – you know, if I fly on somebody else’s airline and find the experience is not a pleasant one, which it wasn’t in – years ago, then I’d think, well, you know, maybe I can create the kind of airli”

Simplified Meaning:
Life is like a continuous journey of gaining knowledge and experiences. Imagine taking a trip on an airplane and having a terrible experience because the service is poor and the seats are uncomfortable. Instead of just being upset, you think about how you could make it better if you were running the airline. This mindset is about always looking for ways to improve things based on what you learn from different situations. For example, if you go to a restaurant and the food isn’t good, you might think about what you would do differently if you were the chef. This helps you not only learn from experiences but also use that knowledge to make better choices and create better experiences in the future. It's about being proactive and turning negative experiences into positive actions.
