You have great frame gluing skills.

So typically when you start a business, you have to understand a little bit about cash flow, recruiting people, creating systems, creating a culture. What were some of the first things that you learned that you didn't know when you were starting out?

Talk to me about that because we've got a lot of younger people in our community. How do you do it? If you're 19, 20, 21, 22, and you're recruiting someone that's older or leading someone that's older, how do you do that well?

So early mistakes. All of us, you learn from what you do wrong. What's one or two that stands out to you? And then I want to ask you, what did you do right? And maybe you didn't even know that was so right. First of all, what did you learn from those early mistakes?

So, agree or disagree, a lot of times when anyone's starting out a business or a ministry, it's really hard to be 100% perfect on early hires. And if you don't make relatively quick corrections, it can be difficult to... Yeah, absolutely.

So I want to just slow it down because I want people to hear what you just said, that if you've got someone that's not the right fit, then letting them go is you set a favor to them as well as yourself. And that's actually really, really true. And like, we're both people of faith.

And so, we might even say if the person isn't where God would want them to be, and we leave them there, then that's really not being fair to them, not being obedient. And so, I think I'm just, I want to highlight that because what I know right now, there's a lot of people that are listening that would have someone. And

They're tolerating what is maybe underperformance or a bad attitude, a bad mindset. And not only does it hurt the organization, but it's going to hurt the other people that see you tolerating it. And ultimately, it actually does hurt the person that you're not being fair to. And so... You said it quickly, but I just wanted to highlight it because it took me a while to learn that.
