I recently started working with a very inspiring founder who also happens to be a really good-looking dude. And so as we were talking about something, I told him, I said, listen, you know, you're large, you're built, you're good-looking, you know, and he kind of stopped me and he was like, thank you. I mean, thank you for that compliment. It's so rare that people give you compliments. And, you know, I would have told him anyway, but it wasn't to give him a compliment. It was to kind of make a point about something we were discussing. But what I realized is, you know, we can talk about how we come across. We can talk about, you look good today, you look healthy today, you look well today. Have confidence in how you come across with men and women. But maybe we don't do it often enough. So Think about this, uh, if you can, next time you meet somebody where you have that impression that something about them is different and it's good. Tell them. It'll make them feel wonderful and it will make you feel good too.
