Anything more, I would start to burn out. So we have a formula. And same thing with those 40 weeks. I take 12 weeks off a year. I take the month of August off every year. So I have figured out my perfect formula to create the maximum output.

There are so many other benefits which we'll drill down on as we have this discussion, but it starts with you just heightening your awareness to say, what's my magic formula?
