And it's like, you just reverse engineer that. So like people don't even know what their number is. They just keep going. And then it's like, okay, cool. You hit the number. You don't have to stop making money. That's not the whole point. It's just like, okay. Are there other priorities now that you would rather have?

Would you rather now start spending more time with your family? Would you rather start taking Fridays off to golf? Would you rather start vacationing more? Because now you have options. And I think everyone's default thing is because we're always working so hard as entrepreneurs is, oh, grow. We got to keep making more money.

But it's like, for me, that's not my default thing of like, let's spend every hour optimizing my time to make money. It's, all right, let's spend every hour doing the things that I feel like I'm supposed to do in my life.

You got to make money.

We can't do anything, right? So like money definitely is a huge piece of it. But it's like, you know, most entrepreneurs, they don't adapt as they grow. They just kind of like, like Dan Martell brought it up even with you. He's like, why don't you have a chef? This doesn't make sense. And it's like, well, this is how I've always done it.
