What kind of person are you going to become from point A to point B? What kind of clinician? What are you going to have? Because the other gap that these kids don't have, again I said kids that these young professionals don't have when they leave school is they don't have the level of experience treating a patient. There's going to be some anxiety when somebody walks in and they've never seen the diagnoses. In three years, you can be a master clinician and you will not have that level of anxiety any longer with what we're going to teach you. So those are the kinds of things that I think as a student or a new grad, or a five year grad for that matter, those are the kinds of things that I think you should want to hear. If you're on this arc and you haven't got to a point in life where you can say, my life is about wants now, and it's no longer about needs, there is an arc that you have to go on and then in order to really make your time an asset, that's the arc you have to go on. Because at some point that time is going to be more valuable than money. And the only way you turn your time more valuable than money is you got to get all those needs taken care of.
