good weather because I had some outdoor event. And then I thought to myself, man, there's a farmer who's really praying for rain right now. And I was like, shit, maybe this is flawed. Not to say that praying in general is flawed, but just that construct of this, it being my way is therefore good.

And I think getting used to not getting my way, comma, and saying that that's okay has been one of the big psychological hacks that I've had in my life that have decreased my anxiety levels and my anger levels around responding to stimuli that I wouldn't at the onset say was what I wanted. Because I might not know. And maybe today's rainy day is tomorrow's sunny day.

Yeah. So I had a mentor way back when I was starting my gyms and he was like, yeah, we do flyers. That's how we get customers. I was like, okay, so I'll do some of those. He said, you should try that. So, you know, print out 300 flyers and, you know, advertising was expensive and I was broke. And so 300 was the appropriate amount of advertising that I could stomach.

And so we put out 300 flyers and I waited. And then the next day I got a call. I was real excited. And as soon as I pick up the phone, I was like, Oh, hey, it's like I got one of your flyers. I was so excited. And he says, yeah, you dinged my Mercedes. And I just immediately panicked and hung up the phone. Thankfully, he never called back. But that was the only call I got from my 300 flyers.

And so I called the mentor back and I was like, hey, you you told me to do that. Think, you know, a decade plus ago and way more entitlement. I was like, hey, you told me this was going to work. Right. And and he didn't even respond to that. He was like, well, how many how many did you put out for your test size? And I was like, what do you mean by test size?

He's like, well, what was the first batch that you tested on so that you could then scale it? And I was like, well, I mean, I put out 300 in total. And he just started laughing. And I was like, why? I'm like, I'm having this very serious moment. You know what I mean? I was like, what are you laughing at? He's like, hard to know if anything works with 300. He's like, well, we test with 5000.
