Dabo still talks about the coffee bean all the time.
It made an impact on him.
That day in 2018, John Gordon is done talking to the team.
He and Dabo are real good friends.
So they go back to Dabo's office to catch up.
When Dabo goes to sit down at his desk, he pulls his keys out of his pocket and he throws his keys on the desk.
And John Gordon looks at his keychain and says, what's that little thing in your keychain?
Dabo said, oh, that's the coffee bean.
He said, have you ever heard the story of the coffee bean, John?
John's like, I don't know what the coffee bean is.
He said, sit down.
Let me tell you a Damon West story.
John Gordon calls me that day.
He said, Damon, I was just in Dabo's office.
Dabo told me all about your life story.
And he said, Damon, the world needs the coffee bean message.
Let's deliver this message to the world.
He said, will you write a book with me?
We'll call it the coffee bean.
