Because as you were talking, I was kind of smiling because I was looking back at my life.
And I was like, everything that I've kind of done sort of successfully was because there was some problem that I was trying to solve.
My first kind of reels, I don't want to say first, but one of my earlier more successful businesses was an e-commerce company.
It was a water-resistant sock.
And this is, I mean, it goes so beyond what we're talking about, but I came up with this idea because I was in school, I was in college taking a public speaking class.
And they gave us an assignment to pitch a product to the class, kind of like Shark Tank or Dragon's Den.
And I procrastinated, I put it off.
And one day it was raining for class and I ran to class.
I stepped in a puddle.
I got to class, and the teacher was like, it's your day to present.
And I said, present what?
She's like, the product.
And I said, oh, crap.
I'm standing in front of class.
My heart is beating.
My socks are wet.
And I started talking about water-resistant socks, that if you're an athlete, because I used to put football in high school, American football, oh, man, when it rains, your feet feel soaked.
And I started talking about water-resistant socks and how athletes would love it.
And I sat down, and I was like, that's kind of a cool idea.
How can I do that?
