00:00learn against or get right right away?
00:01Well, I think that's what happens is when you don't have success.
00:05There's division.
00:05I mean, so as far as the future goes in that process,
00:08that's out of my control.
00:10And so I do my best to avoid worrying about stuff I can't control
00:14because it's a waste of my time.
00:15So I can't control my approach every single day.
00:19What makes me decisive is I was raised by decisive decision makers.
00:22So my mother, my father were decisive.
00:24My older sister, Nicole, was very decisive.
00:28I was married for 16 years to a wife who was very decisive.
00:32And so I surround myself with decisive people.
00:34And I believe in just the process of how you go about things.
00:38Take it moment by moment.
00:39So I obviously had a conversation on Friday when I sat down with George
00:44and Kevin and Ryan about this decision being made.
00:48Didn't know about it, which I think is what Kevin mentioned before
00:51is the importance of a proper process.
00:53So you you respect people the right way.
00:56So there was, you know, no heads up given.
00:59There was a heads up needed.
01:00But I think being able to have a chance to
01:03get that information, address the staff briefly.
01:06I'd already planned to go home.
01:07So first, my first question was, do I have any obligations this weekend?
01:12My flight still leaves at four o'clock.
01:14And so I haven't seen my family in a month and a half.
01:16I haven't been home all year.
01:17And so I had a chance to go home and spend time with them being consistent.
01:22And so we all have to make adjustments.
01:25Life is ever changing.
01:27It's not an excuse.
01:29I make excuses.
01:30So I think being able to communicate effectively, to be on the same page
01:33is continue to find ways to demand that we do things the right way,
01:36but also taking it one play at a time, one day at a time.
