In terms of creating content, I see other content creators as collaborators, not competitors. And I think the more you help other people in our specific industry, they'll also help you back. I think short YouTube shorts, just like the vertical videos, are getting 200 billion views a day now. So that's whatever, 6 trillion views a month in long forms. Getting trillions. There are so many tens of trillions of views a year on YouTube that, like, me helping you improve your YouTube channel. And how many views do you get a year? Year? I don't know, maybe 15, 20 million. Yeah, so if you're getting 120 million a year, even if I. A thousand extra YouTube channel viewership, that has zero impact on me. Literally. There's 100 trillion views to go around it. It doesn't matter. So that's like, once you, like, fully internalize that mindset and you're truly giving to other people. I find it like, people usually, you know, if I ask them a question, they'll be kind of guarded, and then I'll just go through and just give them, like, 10 years worth of advice and just help, help, help. And then, you know, now all of a sudden, they're like, oh, okay, that's how it is. I'll help you too. And it's like, great. And you develop that relationship with hundreds of people, and then you just constantly. You just always got to make sure you're giving more than you're taking, and as long as you do that, like, you're good.
