And I think that over time is also what motivated me to do it in the first place.
I lost motivation as well.
So I wouldn't say it was more like it had a negative effect on the business, but just personal motivation to be doing it every day and to be working hard and to be traveling so much and to be doing all this was it was harder and harder to do.
The further I was removed from the act of actually putting shoes on kids feet.
And that's what's so fun about running the Enough program right now is like I am so connected to the stories and people giving the bracelets and wearing the bracelets.
And I did a TED Talk last week in Vancouver and
Ted gave everyone a bracelet on the way out and I saw 1500 people wearing it and then talking about how they were going to give the next one to their son or to their daughter or their best friend, or one was going to send it to their mom for always making them feel enough.
And so I'm right at the epicenter right now of seeing the impact of what this enough movement is doing already, even though we're only four months old.
And I'm very aware that it's so important for me to always stay in that place.
So I think I learned that through Tom's.
And I think now, no matter how big or small enough is, I will continue to make sure that the bulk of my time with it isn't in the supply chain and selling and donations and more in the really connecting with people who the bracelet is making a difference in their life.
Oh, Tony Hsueh.
Yeah, sorry.
Probably about a year after I sold, I think the excitement and I moved to Jackson Hole and I built this house and did all the things that people probably do when they have financial freedom for the first time in their life.
And once the kind of buzz of that wore off and I was faced with, wow, I did all that.
And I don't feel any better or any different.
And if anything, I really miss the early days of Tom's when I felt so much connection to my purpose and what mattered.
And what was so scary about it was I didn't know how to fix it.
All the other times in my life, I felt like I figured out a way to fix it.
And then I was just left with, man, I built the company.
