And thankfully, if you go back to all my children and the bit that I did before that, it wasn't like it all happened immediately.
It was sort of a slow burn.
And it still feels like a slow burn.
I don't feel like any of it happened quickly.
Yeah.
I mean, in God, family, friends, home.
Those are all things that really sort of kept me and I think still keep me in this business today because it's easy to burn out.
I don't know.
I'm probably not the...
spokesperson for it but i but i i've had enough experience in this business now to know that i was again very lucky to have a very tight-knit group of friends uh a very a family that wasn't afraid to put my ass in check if i needed to be um there you go but it can be it can be a very enticing uh and intoxicating thing you know because you got a lot of stuff thrown at you
And if you don't keep some kind of perspective on what reality is, and I always knew this, and I watched this growing up, this was before I even wanted to get into the business, is that I'd see guys rocket to stardom and then burn out quickly.
Um, and I didn't want to be that guy.
I wanted to try to stay as humble and as appreciative.
And also I had a lot of jobs before this.
I didn't get into this business until I was 27 or eight years old.
And so I worked in construction and I worked in warehouses.
I worked a lot of like grunt labor jobs for a long time.
And I think that that real life experience, um,
as great as those jobs are, I didn't want to go back to them because I was, I felt so lucky to even be in this position.
I still do.
