recite them all off because it was on the badge but no one ever mentioned them or if it was on your performance review yesterday if someone had a shout out for you or a nominee like that you're gonna know what it is right i mean that's the difference yeah and another one of the things that and just so everybody listening and watching i understand

Well, first of all, if you ask companies, most people get them backwards.

They think the vision's, I mean, in theory, one's supposed to be kind of a 10-year view and one's supposed to be kind of a three-year view, like one would last forever.

It's not the amount of time because there's stuff that you and I could do that we would do it for eight hours and for free.

And we're in a zone and it feels great and it's energizing.

And that's usually kind of value aligned.

And then, unfortunately, the destination doesn't provide the view that one thought would make up for all the journey.

And instead of sitting and contemplating on that, what do high achievers then do?
