And your point is like, no, there's like multiple different archetypes.

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

Obviously, like I've studied this maybe more than anybody else in the world.

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

It's very clear that there are.

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

Yeah.

And yet they're all kind of like narrowly focused on this is the one path.

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

Huberman Lab
DAVID SENRA: Daniel Ek, Spotify

It's like of like the genius young entrepreneur.
