is showing investors deals that you've passed on can be important.

Now, again, if you've got an open process with a JV or something where, you know, you're kind of looking at all the deals together, you're going to go through that.

And I think that's one of the things we learned is sometimes, you know, when we'd sit in investment committee or in board meetings and you would see our partner's

build confidence in members of our team when they saw them explain why they weren't going to continue pursuing something.

So if something shows up on the pipeline, it looks really interesting.

Maybe you do a little due diligence and we come back and say, we're not going after it.

We'll line out.

And being able to articulate why you didn't pursue the deal, why you passed on it, I think can be really instructive about the way you think as an investor and the focus that you can maintain and the discipline that you can maintain.

Because that's what investors want to see when they're re-upping is they want to see that you're still focused and that you're still disciplined.

And if they've allocated capital to you and then you've gone off in 10 different directions, you're not going to get a re-up.

And sometimes showing them what you're not doing underscores what you are doing really well.

Yep.

Absolutely.

I think the, well, I'll let you, I'll let you in on that point.

I think you're right.

I don't know.

Well, I say it again, communication and clarity.

You've got to be consistently building that clarity throughout the organization.

You know, the execution thing, it's about people, it's about process, and it's about particularly now the technology that you're using.

And the firms that are going to be most successful right now are those that can build a brand for themselves and those that can best integrate technology.
