I think all of that matters.

So, you know, my advice is as you come out of school and you're looking at the world, find a place where you can get engaged.

Find a place where you can learn, where you can apply skills that you think you're good at.

Understand there are going to be bumps and it's not going to work perfectly, but stick with it.

Show up.

Be present.

Try to outwork people around you.

Try to be more committed than people around you.

Compete.

Um, and compete, you know, to do the best you can compete, to learn, to win.

And if you do that and you do it over time, chances are that good things will happen.

But these issues that people worry about, we were worrying about them, you know, 40, 50 years ago.

I'm not saying they're exactly the same, but it is very natural.

to come out of school and worry about those things.

And you've got to go out and look forward.

I'm very optimistic about the world.

Sure, there are lots of problems.

But I do think that it is a wonderful time to be alive.

And there's lots of exciting stuff that's going to happen in the next, you know, 5, 10, 15, 20 years that this generation will play an enormous part in.

Thank you both.
