So going to the gym at the same time, you start to see the same people.
It's like organic community.
So I love things like that.
The other thing, I think if you can gather around a common purpose, like I'm starting this year or next year, I'm going to do the Leadville 100 out in Colorado.
And so it's finding like a training group that you have got this shared sort of tough goal.
And if you can do that, you find sort of organic community as well.
And then for me, I'm a faith-based person, and so I find community in my church community, too.
And so I don't think you need just one community.
I think you've got to have sort of multiple areas.
But if you do the reps, if you do the same things and go to the same places, you're going to build community.
Find a common purpose.
The scary thing is that the data tells us that most guys, they go to their spouse, the partner, whatever.
That's their sort of rock.
And 75%, that's who they would go to.
They don't have anybody else.
But what happens when that relationship sours, that relationship changes, you get a divorce, you have a separation, then they have nobody.
And so, dude, I agree.
That's why community is so important.
It's vital.
It does.
