He said a great line.
Don't half-ass it.
Yeah.
Which was...
three or whatever, four, however many words into the best words I've ever heard from the man who I ultimately really wanted my ultimate approval from.
And he didn't give me, he gave me a lot more than approval with that line.
He gave me a kick in the backside, privilege, freedom, responsibility, kick, go do it.
And I suppose, I know consciously, but probably subconsciously too, there's things that I've done where I wanted to let something slide and those words came to my mind, I was like, uh-uh, no way, uh-uh.
That'd be half-assing it.
So those words have lived with me.

Oh, interesting.
Like you just wouldn't admit it.
And I remember always being sheepish about someone go like, well, you just want to, why don't you perform?
