So banking that into your plan and making sure that you're thinking about that as you go out and make promises to
Investors is important.
What I find super important is surround yourself with people you respect and people that you think are gonna help you create better outcomes and decisions.
If you can get yourself surrounded by people like John Ho and Paul Bassett and these sorts of individuals
You've got such a head start because when you've got that difficult decision and you want someone to bounce it off, you've got someone that is super smart, high integrity, and the ability then to connect with them and get a different point of view.
In the heat and emotion of a big decision or, you know, a key hire, having someone that gives you a completely different perspective and is thinking about it and backing you from from what you're trying to achieve is so valuable.
Valuable.
And and entrepreneurship is an incredibly lonely thing.
If you're a leader or a founder and you're trying to build a business, you're often making lots of decisions every day.
And your team looks to you as like this invincible leader that is gonna make every decision in the right way.
But often you don't have experience in making a particular decision or you don't exactly know.
You have an in intuition, you have some data, you got you
to people around you, but sometimes decisions actually it's very helpful to get outside advice.
And often it's just the process of talking through something that can be very valuable.
Sometimes it's getting their perspective.
Sometimes it's actually talking through a problem that can be incredibly valuable.
Yeah, well Founder Transition was an interesting one for me because I hadn't actually experienced this in I all my business previously been sole.
businesses that I'd started and then uh starting Jet Star I was a hired gun, Jeff Dixon and Alan Joyce and the Cornest Board.
So getting into a business where I was actually making an acquisition and two other people coming into the business was an interesting journey for me.
And I think in hindsight they definitely made some mistakes along that journey, as we all do.
