Hi, this is Brian. Welcome back to another optimize plus one. In our last plus one number 1000, we celebrated our gritty optimizers who have hammered all 1000 plus ones. One more time, go you. Welcome to the Optimize hall of Fame. And thank you. So this is optimize +1 number 1001. Wonder what should we talk about today? I mean, we hit 1000, our work is done, right? Insert joyful laughter. Ha. What you talking about, Willis? We got to celebrate. Check out the link to that. He captures it perfectly. It's day one, my friend. Always sn Guenca's wisdom comes to mind. You know what he'd tell us? Start again. And that's today's plus one. Start again and again and again, all day, every day, embracing the fact that we're never going to be exonerated. We're never going to get there. And the best way to enjoy this one precious life of ours is to see just how present we can be as we eudaimonically strive to close that gap between who we're capable of being and who we're actually being right this second and this one. And so, yeah, let's start again. Plus one plus one plus one.
