And so literally, I was like, okay, fine.

This is a core part of my job and what I need to learn how to do.

I'm going to learn to love it.

I want to love it.

I want to get up there and get in front of our company and really enjoy answering all these really tough questions and digging into the business with our team.

And now I really do.

I've learned to really enjoy that dialogue with our team.

And I learned so much from the questions that folks ask.

And I love that openness.

I think it's just such an important part of our company and who we are.

You know, I think that's,

only partly true if you want to stay in the CEO job.

I think the CEO job has a lot of requirements that are not necessarily things that you love to do in the morning.

There's a huge amount of responsibility that comes along with being a CEO.

There's a lot of operational rigor that

that I think needs to be developed.

I think not every part of the CEO job is glamorous.

So I think if I just wanted to work on product, I would pick a different job at Snap.

But I think because I really like leading our company and leading the direction and strategy for the business, and because I see a huge opportunity in transforming the way that people use computing in the future, both through Snapchat, but also with specs, I think this is the right role for me right now.

I mean, certainly I would spend more time with my family and probably have more fun on some days if I was in a different role or, you know, more focused on design.
