And there's only so much money that one person can want and need over and above those experiences that you just can't pay for. So what are those non-negotiables for you?

Okay, so what milestones do you want to hit in quarter one, quarter two, quarter three, quarter four, or thinking around, okay, this is my long term goal. This is my goal, sorry, for the end of the year. And therefore the first steps I need to make and they are your quarter one steps. Yeah.

So what might you get stuck on and what's the plan if you do? Because even if it's just get help, if it's a particular roadblock, then you can feel more prepared.
