Another thing, too, is leverage your network. Most people are gonna find their jobs next through the people that you know, right? So, I have a lot of people ask me, Taylor, how do I find a job right now? Right? What are some metrics to hold myself to? Everybody wants metrics, right? The 2 metrics you should hold yourself to is talking to 2 people a day. 2 people a day. One person kind of in your network or in the periphery who you kind of know, talk to, Like my guy Rob over here, right? Rob and I just got a selfie together, big fan of Rob. Rob's been in my periphery, right? I don't know if that's even the right word, but I'm gonna use periphery, right? So like, so if I got laid off, I'd hit up Rob. That would count as somebody in my periphery. I know there's a lot of people here I don't know, right? But I wanna talk to you, right? So try to hit 2 connections a day.
