What do you think about it being, like, a fire horse year? Or, like, what are people calling it? Like, this is, like, supposed to be some wild ride that most people are on.
Absolutely, yeah.
And so we're kind of borrowing that a bit, but I think that people were really excited about that information because we had kind of come out of 2020 to 2025 was such a slog.
It was just like, huh, collectively.
You know? There was a lot of things happening.
And so to get this energy of fire, which is like our, you know, motivation, it's drive, it's go, go, go.
And we had been, so to speak, you know, to use horse analogy, we had been bridled, right? We had been, like, kind of pinned up and kind of recovering from 2020.
A lot of people's businesses were still recovering and things like that.
And so I think that people got really excited to know that, oh, this is an action-packed year.
This is a year that can really push forward some of our momentum.
And so one of the things I like to tell people, because I had to kinda temper expectations, right? There's not...
It's not gonna be, like, some magical thing that's gonna happen this year that isn't possible any other year.
You know, the year is happening for you, not necessarily to you.
But this is a year that's really gonna stress-test structures, which you saw, right? Very early in the year, it stress-tested some structures that you were working in, and, and they didn't work out.
And so if you're having that happen to you where you feel like, okay, I've worked so hard to build this structure and it doesn't feel like it's working, or it can handle the weight that I'm putting on it, that's the energy of the year, right? It's like, it's also this energy of speed.
Like, this is a year where success loves speed.
So do it.
When you have the idea, do it fast, do it quick, put it together with duct tape and a prayer.
Like- [laughs]
... that's okay, and see what happens, right? So I think that that would be...
