I mean, it's by, we spend 18 months and hours and hours of debating it and
thinking about what we want to be and how we want to go about it.
But it's something we've been doing and it's our North Star, it's our compass, it's everything.
And it's an important part of the process and the business building of Sixth Street.
We're a values-driven firm.
Our values are, number one, what we call our one-life principle.
You have one life.
Do you want to be average or great?
Everyone wants to be great.
So that's the first thing.
We want people that are all in.
It's a competitive world out there.
We want people that are all in.
The second thing, and this goes back to one of the things we're talking about, is we want curious people that are constantly learning, that actually are constantly trying to grow.
If you think about the idea of having to develop new themes every year and new ideas, we need entrepreneurial people.
And then the third thing is a one team culture.
So people that are over themselves, no politics, no egos, no BS, just so we can all talk to each other.
So those are the values.
We always said we wanted to be the largest startup in the industry.
That's literally day one.
