We in our group. I know when guys come to us, they're like, man, I made, you know, 800,000 on this deal. We're like, that's it? Why not 2 million? Where did you miss? Where can we improve? Not saying you shouldn't celebrate, but like, we're back in the crime. If you gotta get to work, we can make 800. Only imagine if we knew what the hell we were doing. And that's what happens. So you got to get around people that are challenging your thought process. You know, people are putting pressure on the moments when you're out there. Like, yeah, I just got 12 cent raise. I'm gonna go get a beer and hang out. You are like, I just got on my guy Beacon. He's hanging out Texas Roadhouse, drinking margaritas, Tuesday at 1:30. And I'm like, I'm not off working. Dude, what are you doing? I'm not celebrating. Why are you celebrating? And again, I say not to celebrate. But not Tuesday at 1:30, man. Maybe Tuesday at 4, but not Tuesday at 1:30.
