It's only about 7,000 some odd days.
That's not a lot of days.
And your last one or 2,000 days, I don't know, usually aren't your best days.
You have 5,000 great days left here.
I want to accomplish something really important every single one of those 5,000 great days.
And so I think time is important to utilize properly.
Time is not something to waste with frivolous things.
So the goal of the CEO is to get the whole management team to collectively to buy into a big vision, big goal, very clearly thought out, very clearly envisioned what that is.
And then for everybody to sign up for what are they going to do in order to help materialize that goal.
So thinking big, but then you got to get a team.
You can't just think big.
You've got to get a team together to get mobilized to materialize that big goal you've put out.
And that's not unique, by the way.
There's plenty of other companies that think big and move fast, but we've been consistently thinking big and very big.
And we've been consistently executing with discipline on that big vision.
The most important thing in order to unlock speed is have people on the management team who are comfortable with moving fast, but moving fast in a disciplined way.
Use this analogy.
You have a car driving down the highway as fast as it responsibly can.
The hubcaps may be shaking a little bit, but they're not going to fall off.
You don't want to drive so fast that you're going to have self-created problems.
