People only care about how much you care. And so I said, wow, okay, I'm not going to worry about knowing everything. I'm just going to worry about caring about my audience member more than anybody else. And that got me over the hump. I was like, I'm not trying to be perfect. I'm not trying to be know everything. I'm just trying to care about the person that's listening to me. And that's what got me over everything. And what was cool is like, the more you cared, I also attract people who are also caring people. Do we agree that that's the room we've attracted here? Yep. And so that is what will happen when you put content out where you care about the. The audience, rather than being perfect about knowing the exact same thing. Okay. You will attract the wrong people, actually, when you know the most, you'll attract the right audience when you care the most. Does that make sense? Okay, so stop thinking about. I'm not the expert. And start thinking about. I just care about people more, and I want them to know the one thing that I know that I didn't know two days ago.
