And I use the word under the— I use the words under the influence on purpose. I think about it like alcohol. When you're under the influence of alcohol, it's going to change the way you walk, it's going to change the way you talk, it's going to change the way you think, it's going to change the way you feel, it's going to change the way you act.

When you're under the influence of what you want, when you're under the influence of what you're building, when you're under the influence of this thing you're excited about, it's going to change the way you walk.
