And now a couple of you said like, man, I'm just not where I'm supposed to be or something to the effect of that. And I'm like, you're exactly where you're supposed to be, you know, so that's just one thing. If you're always and strategic coach, we were with them when they called it the gap. Like when you're always looking ahead and you're kind of sort of never like right here, like right now, this is where I'm supposed to be. And if you're like, it's the gap, it's this space that leaves you feeling like you're up and you're not doing well and you're not performing and it's not a good place to be in. So just we covered some of it yesterday, but just really be comfortable exactly where you are and all. There wasn't enough time yesterday to fill out all those questions properly. Yeah, yeah. And we're gonna do a lot of that today too. So the goal for today is basically to have you guys leave with all you need to go back and just kind of make one of these. So minimum four personal, four professional, like totally filled out. And that's what those 12 sheets that are in front of you are. Four. Everyone should have 12 of those sheets. Do you believe that if you hadn't done that, your business won't be where it is 100%? Like 150%. So the question was, do I believe if I didn't, especially at that time. So I've been a little bit lax on this in like the last two years for my team. And I'm gonna put together a one page strategic plan. Just because you're supposed to. But during this time, during the crunch time of really pushing from 60 to 120 to 180 to 250, that's kind of these years. This was the 2010 was the 120 year and there was the 180 year and then it kind of pushed over into the 250 year. 100%. I don't believe it would have happened if I put all that on. If I didn't put all that on paper and have it in front of me. So no bs. How many times do you think you reviewed that sheet? At least a handful of times a week in those couple. Really Just hardcore years. Like, oh, this is tough. Like I gotta get this shit in front of me. Like it was everywhere. I'm not kidding. One of these I printed, it was a four pager. I had. And I printed it on 11 by 17, 11 by 17, laminated with professional on the front two pages and personal on the back two pages. And I printed, I think, 20 of the 11 x 17 and 20 of an 8 and a half 11 with the four pages. So a mini version of it. And I just 100% believe that if you do. If you follow this and do this today and you follow through and you just kind of spend maybe even only a couple three hours in a coffee shop and finish this out and then go laminate it and do it, if you guys do that, when we get together in six or 12 months and the people that have done that part, the part that you won't do here, 100% game changer. I know some of you are just like, yeah, but I got shit to deal with. But at the time I did this, I promise you it was not easy. I promise you that all the shit that you're dealing with, he doesn't understand. He works Tuesdays. It was only like a few years ago. 2011. 2012 was when it was in the muck of it. 2012 was coming out of it.
