Nothing wrong with it.
It can be a good lifestyle business.
But if you want to expand, you got to open up.
you mentioned though that you had real clear it's let go of total control over everything it's not let go in the sense that you still got to be i i don't believe there's a way to do this if you're not on all the time and grinding all the time and putting in the hours paying attention to everything like people got to believe right down to the guy swinging a hammer that you see everything that's happening
right or wrong if you give that up if they think you're off on a boat or a golf course good luck to you because i don't think that's gonna i couldn't do it that way dude but that's what i wanted to know is like what does that actually look like right that looks like for me on average like 60 to 70 hours a week in the control tower watching everything all the time and some of that's company cam some of that's builder trends some of that's
we're actually developing internal software they'll bring a few of these things together it's a lot of communication and it has to be efficient you have to i've got in a given day i have a team of architects in mexico team of architects in the philippines team of engineers in the philippines construction team in dallas houston austin and then the staff here in the office with me so that's not bragging that's not flex just saying okay that's the reality so you better be organized or that's going to get up real quick

That's probably the biggest failure I've had in my career is it took me a long time to mature enough to where I could listen to other people long enough to hear what they had to say instead of just immediately shutting them down and being like, no, no, no, that's dumb.
I know what I'm doing.
I built a million square feet, blah, blah, blah.
I regret that.
That was a bad attitude to have for a very long time.
I think I started opening up to it when the market kind of turned down here in Austin.
A couple of years ago, we kind of had to look around and go, hey, that didn't work.
Things are slowing down.
And
There is a sobering moment where you kind of realize that it doesn't matter.
I think this is a real threat for everybody.
It doesn't matter if you build the best house and you paid the most attention and the execution was flawless and you had good relationships with your staff and your subs and everything else.
