We haven't talked a lot about systems to make sure I can identify a top performer.

Let's talk a little bit about that.

So I did talk about how I went on retreats and one of the most important things that I try and do is at least three times a year, but hopefully four, is to meet my leaders in person every 90 days is the goal, ends up being closer to 120.

My divorce this past year has made it incredibly difficult for me to meet up with some of my leaders.

Uh, I, I spent some time in the Philippines.

I was able to meet up with Jan Powell a little bit more than some of the other leaders like Ken's over in Canada, Francisco's in Mexico.

Uh, we did have a Mexico summit, Francisco and I've been able to meet up, you know, in Mexico and, and, and over, over other countries.

And he's visiting the U S and, you know, there is that, but, uh, I haven't seen Ken since I met up with him in Japan, 16 months ago.

That's not ideal, right?

Today, I'm falling short on that.
