But I've realized the value of different places, different things at different moments.

The value of traveling when you're 13 to Cali, Colombia by yourself or going to Hong Kong.

I don't know that I realized how weird that was, but also as I get older, the value of that, if it doesn't go completely sideways.

And I think that's a razor's edge.

There's a million people in tennis.

Besides maybe damage of having done that stuff or like there's a lot of issues.

So I think if you get to the other side of it, it's great where you're actually pragmatic enough and you feel like your cup is full enough to look backwards and say that was really good for me.

And I don't know that that's a one size fits all thing.

I remember, and she never lets me forget it.

I remember playing Serena in like a practice match and they were famous for, we're not going to play junior tennis tournaments.

And we're all like, how do you learn how to compete?

You can see how good they are.

And also this will never work.

Idiots, right?

And so we would play, you know, I was the best kid.

And Serena at that point was like, she is now, she's an absolute beautiful physical specimen.

She is an absolute like, yeah, totally.

So we're playing and her dad or the coaches at the academy, they're all in on this program with these two.

It's like, okay, I guess so.

We'll see if it works.
