Does that make sense?
I think that's why we're trying to... Why do we get together to be creative?
Why do we do brainstorm sessions with people?
Why do we riff?
It's because there's this kind of like...
kind of a weird metaphor but like it's like a gene pool of ideas like if it's just me referring myself it's like i'm not getting enough like genetic diversity you know in the gene pool um it's like zoos got to trade their animals look like the other zoos right it's like you have different experiences i do and you have slightly different associations or very different associations than i do and that's not a weakness that's a strength so when i say something you're going to have this slightly different association to it and then your response is not going to be what i was expecting and vice versa
If people are determined to pay me to do it, I will be grumpy to do it.
Like sometimes I'll do public speaking training for like executive folks.
And I'm always trying to get them to do a small group with a couple of their colleagues.
And the higher people up are, the more nervous they are about that because it's so much more fun.
It opens up the kinds of exercises you can do.
And then it feels like, OK, it's not just one person and then me like, hey, try this.
It's like the two or three of us.
You need someone to play with in a lot of these exercises.
It's kind of involved in balancing out the other person.
And a lot of the benefits that we were talking about earlier, I think, come from that bowling alley bumper gutter thing.
So it's kind of like if the goal is to like build your creativity and confidence, I think actually doing that by yourself might seem less scary, but it's ultimately like less impactful than having at least one other person there who you have to like trust and like put yourself out there for because then they are the bumper that helps and you're their bumper.
Like you're both kind of nudging each other back on the lane in these nice ways.
I mean, I wonder if this is you're not always interviewing people who do a thing that you also are.
Yeah.
