You know what was so great? So I do – I'm in the franchise industry kind of like you're in the home service industry. But I got to go to this RhinoX event with you and with Cristiano yesterday. Man, it felt good to be amongst contractors again.

I mean, like, that's my DNA. And all of these guys are building, you know, $20 to $400 million businesses in there. And, you know, they started in their garage. And it was – I mean, it was really great to be in that room for that day.

Yeah. Well, one of the things that you've demonstrated over and over again is this concept of regression analysis. Many people start in business, and if you think back to when you started and probably I think back to when I started, it was the same way. I was trying to figure out, okay, what's the next step? What's the next step? What's the next step?

If you work backwards from a very specific future, it'll be a completely different set of steps than had you tried to work forward to it. And that's just it. It's like, okay, well, I'm going to pick the location not based on a proximity to a highway or traffic or storefront or drive-bys. It's like, where am I going to get the business from?

I did. So I've done three things in the last probably 120 days. I've cut my alcohol consumption down by like 97%, 98%, which wasn't a ton, but I still don't recover like I used to. I mean, I got a good 15, 16 years on you, and I need every bit of energy that I got. Started that journal that I shared with you and cut my screen time down to an hour.

So like part of our job as business owners is to create space so the universe can organize itself and we can calm the swirl around all the opportunities that we have. And so, you know, I shared that with you and you had shared something similar with me. And then we're at this great party. Right. And I was I held off for a little while.

And then I and then and then it's like we went to the VIP dinner and it was a special drink paired with a special. So I had I had to have five drinks with five courses. Right. So that was out the window. Right. And I – he said, how did you do last night?

It was so fun. My other one was I tried to figure out if I could make an old-fashioned last night, but I couldn't make one. But I could make four.
