And we need to start that sort of grassroots pressure, start making its way up to the government.
to start taking this societal disruption more seriously.
So apologies to you guys or anyone listening that these topics can be triggering, but we have to kind of talk about it now.
Yeah, so I don't...
I don't want to start being alarmist and saying, build bunkers and be a prepper and have a basement full of food to last a year.
I don't want people to think like that.
But the analogy is useful because I think you could say, what is the psychological version of a prepper?
So rather than having a basement full of water supply and food and batteries and everything, what we need to think about is the psychological version.
So I'm a big fan of habits, right?
Most people, you know, don't sit there and debate whether they're going to clean their teeth or not before they go to bed.
It happens twice a day or more.
And so what other habits can we start building?
And we know everything from-
you know, just meditation or just doing the box breathing or things that can bring your physiology back down or reframing the uncertainty piece right through to, you know, the food and sleep and all the stuff that the internet's so full of right now.
But starting to take those things more seriously because we're going to shift into this transitionary period where those things will be more important than ever before in human history.
And when you put the work in, when the going's easy and you build the habit, when the going gets tough, the habit can do some of the work for you.
You don't have to sit there and debate it.
You don't have to get through that difficult thing.
