The reason I wanted to do that was because I have a theory of work and change called the 1% problem. And the 1% problem is that sometimes we're like 99% there towards what we want.

I wanted to put this to you, and this might not apply to you at all, but I'm voicing it so that you think about it, which is like, is this situation, it's not good for you. It's not perfect. You shouldn't stay there forever or maybe even much longer. But I'm curious about when you step back and you look at all the things that it does provide you, and then whether or not

There's a way to leverage what you're doing there or the connections that you've made there to fill in like the 1%. Like, do you need to hit reset and try some totally different random thing? Or is a lot of the structure of this environment actually working? It's just that it's the wrong farm. It's the wrong challenges. It's the wrong people. but it's like almost there?

Or do you need to say, you know what, screw it. I just cannot work on somebody else's farm. This is a hundred percent problem. And I like have to start my own thing. It's the only way in which I will have these things.

As you're talking, there's an interesting little ecosystem of challenges that you're grappling with. And one of the big ones that I think we need to address before we address anything else is what in your world actually needs to stay the same? Because you just told me, for example, that you don't want to move again, which is fine. Moving sucks.

Because that's going to impact not just the next decisions, but also maybe how you come to think about those next decisions. So is that fixed?
