Well, there are two pieces to it. One piece is really take the time, you know, psychological types, other types of tests, to really get to know who you are, what your talents are. Nobody else is telling us. So there's a sense of settling in and learning more about who we are, and then trusting that when we find something that we love, our energy is just going to flow into the world. That energy is dying to get into the world, and if we can't find a way to get it out, it kind of turns on us. So it's, it's double. It's really going with, you know, what's right for you. And that takes some work. And then from there, you know, the energy will come. That's my thing that I'm always telling people. It will come. Really? No, it'll never come. Yes, it will come. And then you'll go forward, you know. Yeah.
I love that. I, I'm hearing a call to trust ourselves and also trust the process or trust the cosmos.
Exactly.
