And I do think that's potentially even like the way to look at when we look at celebrities or when we look at that.
I mean, you know, we've used music as the example to kind of showcase, you know, the history behind this and how flop has kind of become.
Every time I'm saying it, I'm laughing in my head.
I just want you to know that.
But it's like even when Jennifer Lawrence, when she had like a bunch of movies come out and she was like, I'm just going to go away for a couple of years because I think everyone's going to be sick of me.
And I'm like, there's two ways I look at this, right?
There's the way that it's like, okay, we're looking at like celebrities and like how it's like are we not allowed to succeed or fly too close to the sun because it's going to piss other people off that we feel like we need to flop.
And then the other one is like I do think there's a more toned down
part of this context that it's like the internal flop.
There's external flop and internal flop.
And what this first section has been about has been more about external perception and to declare someone else in a flop era.
But then there's also and probably more aligned perception
universally is the internal flop error when you really do just feel like you're in a bit of a rut, when you feel like nothing's kind of hitting, when you're not really sure what's igniting that passion in you.
