I want to go into the focus round So what's

(00:02):

but keeps you sharp?
I would have to tie something Ilove to my fitness.
So I'll try to keep it as closeas I can to focus the f is
fitness for me.
I Feel like that's my keystonehabit, meaning when I'm taking
care of myself, all the otherareas of my life start to Play

(00:23):
together and, really worktogether.
What opportunities are youseeing right now that others,
may be scared to tackle?
I will say there's a lot of talkaround ai.
I think it's not here to replacehuman beings because You talked
about this, like AI has neverhad the experience, like they've
never personally gone throughit.
However, those that are willingto adopt AI are going to be,
enhanced to a higher level Whatis your rule for communicating

(00:47):
vision?
So your team actually runs withit so they can actually see what
you're saying.
Bring it up frequently, sharethe vision over and over again.
what is one truth aboutleadership you didn't understand
until maybe you lost some moneyover it or time or relationship
maybe?
don't invest.
To tie yourself to someonesaying, oh man, if I buy this

(01:07):
then I'll get X amount of timewith so and so.
That's something I did wrong.
Leadership owns and they investin what they know.
How do you define success nowafter everything that you have
built and, some of the changesyou have, made over time?
I would say success is every daythat I woke up and I became 1%
better than the person I wasyesterday.
