Yeah.
Yeah.
I don't know. Much like you, so I audible. This morning I was up, couldn't sleep. Not because I was stressed. I'm like a sun guy. This time of the year, I just don't sleep as much because it's light out all the time. So I'm about like four something. I'm like, well, screw it. I'm going to go for my walk. Put on my Bose noise cancel because I got to stay focused.

And I was listening to, you know, I don't even know which one I'm listening to right now. But that is my, much like you, that's my Zen moment. Because that's what I'm absorbing. I'm investing in me. It's called my spirituality part of like, I listen to it, absorb it. And then you think of, okay, what can I implement or what can I make better? So I encourage everyone.

I can't physically read anymore. Like I cannot read a book anymore at my age. I fall asleep in five seconds, but I can listen for hours on end. I don't know. Yeah. Again, how my brain works, but that's why I love audible. I just go through books like crazy. That's awesome. So I could, I'm sure I could give you a, you look at my playlist somewhere.

Much like you, LinkedIn, I'm all over social media. And the cool part is on my contacts, my cell phone's on there, my personal email, everyone can get ahold of me. And I haven't gotten to my popularity stage like you where I can't answer all my emails, but I take great pride in answering everyone's emails. I still get back to trade partners when they want to know bid results for stuff.

And I like personalizing it. I'll be like, hey, you know what? You were high. Well, how high? And I'll tell them. I don't blow smoke up their ass. I'll respond to everyone. That's fantastic.

I wish I could go to your freedom event in September. I think it's about humility. I lost my dad a couple of years ago from a long bout of cancer. And it was funny about that same time I was turning 50 and it's, I've never been an age guy. Like age has never bothered me because I've, I've been about the same weight as I was in high school. Never really had health problems, but I,

When that coupled with when I said I saw my glass ceiling and I went through my spiritual awakening, that was the part where I was like, hey, what are you doing all this for? And so if that's the takeaway, it's find out what that is for you and then just go live your life based on that kind of centric type attitude. And I think you said it best is you have to devote some time for yourself.

When I get off that, which I did recently, a couple months ago, I got off of it where I was just too into everything else and I wasn't on me. I saw the company suffer when I went back to invest it in me. And then I saw the results. The company then did better again. So I'm glad you brought that up earlier because if you're not right with yourself, you're not going to be a good leader.
