And I mean, you know, it's funny, I'll still have conversations with my wife where she's like, you know, when I was first getting this started, I had somebody that approached me for a really, really good corporate job and it would have paid me really well. And been a lot less stressful than what I'm, what I chose to do.

And obviously we know the path I took and she'll go, you still think you made the right decision? You know, and she'll say that every now and again, when I'm pulling my hair out over something and, and I was like, heck yeah, I made the right decision. You know, it's because this is something that for me, this is like, you know, I, I have, um, I have a high risk tolerance.

I'm willing to take, I'm willing to take a leap I believe in something. I want to go do it. But I didn't do that overnight, right? That took me time to grow into it and get comfortable with this and comfort in the uncomfortable situations and stability and stable times. And so it's early on when you talk to somebody, if they're really early on, they're trying to figure out, should I go do this?

Hey, you shouldn't do it. Because what you want to do is you shouldn't do it until you're 100% that you can do this and that you're okay with failings. And that you're going to be okay with success. There's a great quote, and I don't recall who said it first. The person I heard say it was Will Smith. And it's, don't let success go to your head or failure go to your heart.

And I think that's such a strong word of advice that most companies are not going to work out. Or they're going to have to pivot. Or they're going to fail in general. Or they're going to be successful. But when you're successful... You've got to understand, like I can sit here and look and go, man, this, this company immediate has been wildly successful.

It's all because of me, which is not at all the case, right? I have very little to do with it. I started it. And then I hired people that were smarter than me and that filled in my weaknesses that are making this what it's becoming and what it will be. And so I think it's really important that whether you're successful or you're not successful, that you understand that.

things can go a variety of different ways. So when you're really early on, if somebody's thinking about doing this and you tell them not to do it, then they're going to really have to convince themselves that it's really worth doing. Or they're going to go, yeah, maybe this isn't that good of an idea. And they're going to be better off for it because you'd rather them quit and give up now
