That came out of Maslow's whole positive psychology thing being picked up and dusted off in the late 90s.
Yeah.
And I remember even in the 80s and 90s, and I don't know if this came from and we're going to talk a lot about this guy, Martin Seligman.
He was in the 90s.
He was the president of the American Psychological Association.
He talked a lot about positive psychology.
But I remember a lot about just PMA, your positive mental attitude and improving your PMA.
And that was just sort of the key to everything, man.

Yeah.

Yeah.
