I also feel like one of my core principles for making a, a, a big decision is that if it scares me and I'm really excited, that's kind of an interesting combination for me to pay attention to. So I'm scared of stuff. I don't wanna skydive. I'm scared of skydiving. But if I'm excited about something and scared at the same time, then that, that usually tells me take a, a step forward and explore it.
