How do you deal with people saying that's. I said that's crazy in a modern way. But how do people say that's crazy? None of us have any idea what we're talking about. If we all introspect, we realize that we are not the independent thinkers we think we are. We do what other people do. We want to be part of the tribe. We don't want to be ostracized. Doesn't matter at all what anyone says. The only thing that matters is what they do. So it's not even a question whether this is correct. It is inevitably correct. It's just a matter of are you going to be an early adopter or are you going to be a later ad adopter? Right. It's just. It's on its way. It's been born, it's running.
