So I was like, yeah, there's about 15 years of writing skill improvement between this book and The Martian.

So bear that in mind when you're reading it.

You're not going to get that same experience.

I don't know, because you will definitely fail if you go into a new skill set with the idea of like, I got to be the best in the world.

But no one in the world starts out like world class.

I guess it comes down to just.

Being proud of the incremental progress.

Like saying, wow, I'm a lot better at this than I was five years ago.

That's pretty cool.

I'm trending upward.

I will probably be a lot better at this five years from now than I was, than I am now.

And so just identifying progress is good.

Don't look and say like, well, I suck.

Instead say like, I suck less today than yesterday.

That's a dream as a podcast host.

You've convinced me.

My next book is about the queen of clubs with her lucky cat.

That's getting a little bit zombie there, got to say.

A little zombie-ish.

I think that... I think I want to eat your cranial matter.
