But I came up with this thing that when I feel bad, I'm drinking a glass of orange juice every time. And at that moment, I knew I could go both ways. I could go, no, no, you must practice my tools. Or I could say, how wonderful. You've identified a tool that helps you to drink a glass of orange juice, which obviously is what I did. And then she was able to have that in her toolbox automatically.

Yeah. Of course. Um, But for me, and this still needs to be tested, it's nothing necessarily about the glass or even the orange or the vitamin C or anything like that. It's about the fact that she has this message. She has sent a message to herself. I can take care of myself. Because the best tool that I have is me. It's my own body.
