So I'm going to give you two if it's okay. One is the time is now. And that comes from my mentor. The time is now and don't, don't wait, don't think just the time is now. And it really leads to my second one, which is done is better than perfect. So too often people are trying to perfect the idea of perfect the strategy. I'm not going to go till it's perfect. I'm not going to buy until it's the right deal. I'm not going to this. Well, you passed up a bunch of singles and doubles waiting for a home run. You never found the home run, but you could have had 13 singles or eight doubles by now, right? So done is better than perfect. I've never found anybody that thought they launched at perfect and then we're done because even when they launched, they figured, oh, well, that needs to be improved and that needs to be improved and we need to add this and do that.
