But that is something I internalize, reflect on a lot. People I still lean on, there's a couple of folks that I'd say over the career, someone, Sanjay Verma, someone I worked for at PTC a long time ago, he always used to tell me, dude, you're going to start a business.

There's no better country in the world to start a business, as far as I'm concerned. He's a very mindful, very good anchor from a business perspective that I can always go back to. You want to get super inspired first thing in the morning, go read something about Elon Musk. I think that guy's changing the world. I know he's changing the world.

I'd love to work for him or one of his companies someday. Seven months ago, I would have never told you that my daughter forces you to get out of bed and go to work. I never thought I'd be saying this openly, but having another human that depends on you, there's nothing more motivating than that.

You get up and you work and you hustle because you're doing it for this human that you know is waiting for you to come back and feed them a bottle of milk, right? What's the big deal? So I'd say that's another factor without really being able to go home and talk to her yet.
