That year we did like a million for the year in premium as a team. I was $460,000 of it. So we did another $500,000. The year before we did $180,000 total. I was $175,000 of it. So we did $5,000 for the year. Last month, fast forward, and there's all kinds of shit in the middle. I'm going to give you the short version. We did $16 million for the month. In 10 years from doing $175,000 for the year. I mean, it's— it can jump, you know, and we went from like we did $1,000,015. We did like $3 million and we went to $6 million, then went to $10 million, then we did $22 million, then $50 million, $100 million, $150 million. We've done $200+ in the last 2 years. That's kind of the progression of it. It's really hard to like do really big things if you listen to the noise around you, you know what I mean? In the normal world around you, you're expected to not build anything big. You're expected to be mediocre. You're expected to kind of like, you're already doing good, like why are you trying to do more? Like, why are you asking me why am I doing that? I find it weird. For me, it was like, let's make a lot— let's make some changes. Let's decide who I want to be. At that time it was in business. Now in today's world, it's in health and physical stuff. And it's like, I make decisions and then I just go get them.
