Here's the question I had to ask myself. How many hours do we define full-time as? 40, right? John, how many appointments a week are you running? And my answer to myself was 12 a week. That's what my number was. And when I asked myself how many I sit with, it was about 8 a week. And I asked myself, how long do I sit with each client? It was about an hour. I spend 8 hours sitting with clients. Then I went, how many dials do you make, John? How long does each one take? Like a minute. Wait, that's another couple hours on the phone if I gave myself a minute per dial, right? So I'm up to like 10, maybe 11 hours if I really stretch it. If I'm being timed during money-making activity. Does that make sense? When in recruiting, I was doing a handful of interviews a week, 5, 6, 7, 8 a week, and I went, how long do those take? About 20 minutes a pop. So it's another couple hours there. And what I learned is I didn't define full-time as 40 hours like y'all just said it did. I defined full-time as this is all I did. Does that make sense? And if you guys would ask yourselves the same questions in whatever way it applies to you,
