Another beautiful day ahead of what looks like a beautiful weekend, so pretty stoked. Last night was up to like 11, and there was a reel that popped up. I think it's from one of the Kingsman movies, and it was interesting. It's a father talking to his son, and the father is trying to give him some wisdom and saying. You have a strong character. And the young man's really wrestling with that. He's going, I don't have character. Other people say this and that and this and that. And he goes, No, you misunderstand. Personality is what other people are gonna put on you. The world around you is gonna try to tell you what your personality is. That's, that's how people perceive you. That's how people see you or feel about you. And personality is gonna change depending on your environment, the people around you. Personality is gonna change. Character, character is who you are when there's nobody around. Character is who you are In here. Here. And that really just— it hit me like a sledgehammer, that idea of character is that sense of self. And not a sense of self like your overinflated ego or pride, but literally when there is nobody around, when there's nothing else around, who are you? And I mean, do what you will with that, but Really was just a huge, like, bam for me. Loved it. Enjoy. Have a great day.
