Yeah. And I think what's happening a little bit with people that say they've learned so much from failure is it goes back to the pain thing. It's like they realized how much they can sort of personally overcome the suffering of a failure. One takes away, I think, the fear of future failures. It's like, okay, I know what that is. I've been through that.

And it sort of broadens that emotional tolerance going forwards. And ultimately probably makes you more resilient in a way.

I mean, look, I think whatever, whatever can be done to make people have a, like a, like a lower fear of failures is probably good. So I'm not, I'm not out here like, you know, bashing the, the failure energy, but yeah, yeah, yeah. I think, uh, but I do think you learn more from these unique successes than, and the one thing I reflect on is whoop almost failed a lot of times.

Like we really almost ran out of money a few times in the, in the history of the company. And, uh, in particular about six years into the company, like we were right on the verge of bankruptcy. And I think a lot about if the company had failed then, like what would have my lesson been? And

It almost certainly would have been to have been less ambitious with the technology, to have gone to market sooner with something that was like less cutting edge, to be mass market faster rather than working with athletes. You know, a lot of sort of, to be honest, the feedback that I got from people who rejected the business was, I would have taken those as the lessons.
