Chapters
I'd say move obsessively fast on everything. I really mean that. I don't mean like the micro, but I just mean like you haven't got time. I don't mean that— you do, but you also actually don't.

I think you spend too many, too many years like thinking to do the next thing. I really enjoyed doing that, and then I think someone was like, oh, you— I think you might even be a friend, honestly. It was like, oh, that's a distraction from the brand. Someone said something like that, and I was like, probably is. I didn't do it for 2 years. Now I'm like, fuck, that would have been like— probably could have been massive. The pod. But actually just done it properly, which I never did.

Like, I try not to go too deep into some specifics before I expose myself, but like, I just think how much you can do. I think you can do so much in a year if you just do the thing. There's been certain things I've— I look back and like, I was speaking about that 2 years ago, I still not done it. Like I said, I do an ultra marathon, still not done it. It's always like, start that next week.
