Hey, today during my workout, I was thinking about my keynote, and the keynote's about people matter. And I was thinking how lucky I am. Lucky AF. And for those of you that don't know what that means, you're too old. It means I'm at this age where people really matter, both in work and in life. People matter, and you know they really matter. And how lucky is it at this age to create a community of people that you love doing things with, from skiing to biking to swimming to learning to just hanging out, um, getting to figure out how to create a community and how to make sure that all people matter to you and that you can provide value to them. And so people say that luck doesn't happen, it just is created. And I kind of agree with that. So I want to ask you this question, it's super important. What are you doing to create luck in your life? And I'm telling you, here's the secret, it's people activation. People matter. What are you doing to build connections in your life? You gotta love it. You gotta want it. You gotta be disciplined to do it. So go do it.
