[00:00:00] CORY: Welcome to Hindsight Hacking, I'm Cory Carter
[00:00:17] RON: And I'm Ron Cool on this podcast we've packed. Hundreds of entrepreneurs. Hindsight tells you. With better foresight. Now, guys, if you want to know all about what we can do to help you focus on being you head over to get hhm.com, keep pushing through those ups and downs that we all will have.
[00:00:36] CORY: We're still going to have amazing conversations with amazing people. Hindsight hacking boils down to amazing conversations with some amazing people
[00:00:53] All right, what is going on everybody? Welcome back to another episode of hindsight [00:01:00] hacking. And today we have another first. I love calling out the first Mr. David Creel. He is. A Zig Ziglar coach, one of 14 to be exact. And we're going to get into why his coaching business is all about referrals, all about invitation only, and honestly, the way of doing it, the slow and correct, like slow and steady wins the race. David, super excited to have you on the show and I'm looking forward to getting into this.
[00:01:32] DAVID: Thanks for having me. It's going to be a pleasure. I can't wait. I can't wait to see what we're going to talk about.
[00:01:36] RON: No, I cannot wait either. I know we've spent a long time on our first call and we started talking and I was like, Corey, don't forget to press record. Let's go, come on, okay come on.. But before we get too far and get too excited about it, why don't you take a moment and tell everyone a little bit more about you
[00:01:51] DAVID: well, so I have two businesses that I run myself. Um, I have a pressure washing business in the Houston area, which is my [00:02:00] job. It pays the bills. No problem. I don't love it. I don't hate it. I don't think about pressure washing when I'm not pressure washing. And I don't think about pressure washing when I'm pressure washing. So that's my job. And I believe in the quotation from Les brown, who says job is what you're paid for a calling is what you're made of. So my job right now is I'm a pressure washer. That's what feeds us. My calling is I'm a coach and I've been basically coaching people my entire life professionally for about two years now. And I just love the, I love the idea of creating something that didn't exist before our call. And it's like when people have an insight, that's a sight from within. They see the world differently. And I love seeing the light bulbs come on and people, and. Allow them to see things in a way they haven't seen them before.
[00:02:56] CORY: Love it, love it. You know, it's kind of funny, Ron and I, [00:03:00] we both had jobs. It wasn't our own business. At that point, it was an actual job, but the best part of our jobs was when we were able to help the people that worked for us achieve things that they didn't believe they could achieve. And we didn't do it through the call. We didn't do it that, you know, they didn't necessarily pay us. Right? Like we were paying them as employees to, to grow and all that. And that was the first thing that led Ron and I to doing what we were called to do, to doing something that we love doing and in, in the world of podcasting and coaching through the podcasting and that kind of stuff. So pretty awesome to be able to have that similarity. But one question that, that has me. Is you being the one of 14, uh, Zig Ziglar coaches, right? Like you being is not a huge number. I mean, like Zig Ziglar is huge. Like people can go search his name and they probably heard a quote, read a book or done something that revolves around him. So I'm just wondering, like what, why, why did you choose a Zig Ziglar and [00:04:00] that style? Why did you start there? And, uh, you know, just anything related to the man himself
[00:04:06] RON: really quick before you go. And I normally don't interrupt a query if you remember. One of my quotes on the bottom of my email was Zig Ziglar quote.
[00:04:14] CORY: Yeah.
[00:04:16] DAVID: What's the quote on the bottom of your email?
[00:04:18] RON: I don't even remember. It was like five years ago.
[00:04:24] DAVID: Uh, okay, so slight correct. I'm one of 14 that have the choose to win and see you at the top coaching designations. Okay. But the program has only been around. I was in class two of choose to win, which is a based on the book by Tom Sigler. So there's probably 200 or so of them, but it's only been around for two years or a year and a half. So they haven't had, as long as the track record. John Maxwell or Tony Robbins or whoever. So what drew me to Zig was a couple of things. One the will of life, mental, spiritual, [00:05:00] physical family, financial, personal Career so, you know, rate yourself zero to 10, 10 being the best you could ever hope and dream for. And Z zero being basically you're dead and they Zig believed and preached in balanced success. So how many times have, you know, you said when you had to previous jobs, did your job get the best of you? And when you got home, your family got the scraps or the leftovers or nothing. Cause you were in a bad mood from your job.
[00:05:30] RON: all of the time.
[00:05:31] DAVID: Okay. Well, there you go. And you know what all means, pop quiz. This is free, all means all. And that's all that all means. Okay. So the, the reason I liked Zig I was drawn to SIG is because. To the best of his ability. He practiced what he preached. He has a quotation, that's kinda like my life motto. You can have everything in life you\ want. If you'll just help enough other people get what they want. [00:06:00] And if you think about it, that's actually true. There's a lady named Byron Katie, and she has a quotation that says you can have everything in life you want. If you will to ask a thousand people for it because if you go from zero to a thousand, someone will tell you yes, and then you'll have to start back over for another thousand. So I just liked the way he, he had rules where like, for example, Zig whenever he would go speaking somewhere, he had a rule where he would not get into an elevator or a car with a single female under any circumstances whatsoever, because he didn't want to give the impression that something could be going. Now if there was two females or it was a man and a woman or two males or a male he's cool. But if it was an elevator or just a lady was going in, he would wait for the next elevator. And it was just a, he lived what he preached. He. Was married to the same woman for [00:07:00] 60 years almost before he passed. He, he never got involved in any scandals or anything like that. And to me, he just lived a model life that I like to mimic.
[00:07:11] RON: I love that. I love it. It's we call those boundaries in our house. Right. So now there's there's boundaries. Right? And I think that that protects marriages that protects a bunch of different things, but I absolutely love that. And I love the practice, what you preach thing, because there's so many people out there just selling to sell. Right. And there, they're trying to get people in their coaching program to sell something. And then you really realized, Hmm. Probably not the person I want to listen to. Right. And so for you to go, Hey, he preaches what he preaches. He follows. I would want to model that. And then, you know, we've talked multiple times, like we can tell you're very high in integrity and you're there and you want to help people, even, even talking about your power washing, like you already have a legacy plan for that, with your family, which is amazing. So looking at the slow and steady piece, I want to go [00:08:00] back to that and building your, your company through referrals or word of mouth, you know, Cory and I believe in that as well. But we had a good conversation before the show actually started that I want to kind of continue. So when you look at the slow and steady, and there's a lot of people that are just not willing to do that, why do you think that is? I haven't, I have my own opinion, but
[00:08:21] DAVID: why do you think, why do you think that people aren't willing to do the slow and steady way? Yeah, I think we live in a microwave culture and sometimes we need a Crock-Pot, you know, people want stuff yesterday, you know, and. I think it comes down to comparing your success right now, where you are to where someone who's 10 years ahead of you is right now. That's what, you know, Facebook and social media, you know, compare itis is, is, is a sickness. You know? So how many times he looked on Facebook and you think this person here has everything [00:09:00] together. Now, of course, we're comparing our low light. To someone else's highlights because like, let me speak for myself here. I've never put on Facebook. Yeah. Y'all just missed out. Me and my wife had the biggest knockdown drag out ever, and I shove my fist through the sheet rock wall, never in my life. Have I ever posted on social media? How many times do you not see the story behind the story where yes, their family PO photo looks great and everything, you know, everyone's, hair's done, you know, not mine, of course, but everyone else's, hair's done and their makeup's done. Everything's perfect. But right before they hit let's record, they're cussing each other out. I think the main problem is trying to compare yourself to the success of others versus. You know, and we've all heard the phrase, I'm an overnight success. Well, those don't exist. You know, overnight successes [00:10:00] are. You didn't see the 10 years in the background where they're working, where no one on the planet knew who they were. And then all of a sudden something sparked. And then all of a sudden they're on every magazine in the whole world, but you didn't see about the 10 years before that, where, you know, we don't like to talk about the grind and continuing to work. You know, Tom Ziglar, Zig Ziglars, son has a phrase, not PC, like politically correct. PC being persistent and consistent being persistent. Doing it as often as needed or as often as necessary to achieve the desired result and consistent, like I consistently brush my teeth twice a day. Okay. But that was a habit. Some people, you know, what little babies don't brush their teeth or, you know, babies that when they start getting their teeth. So what's a habit. And I think that's answered your question. It's consistent. Lack of consistency. Comparing people and yeah,
[00:10:58] CORY: let's dig [00:11:00] into the persistent, consistent within your business because just to expand on the, you preaching, you know, practicing what you preach. Right. And so you started your coaching business. Two years ago of professionally anyway. Right? Like obviously you were doing it before, but you started it and started with, with one referral and helping that person and then another referral and, and two years, you know, like now it's, it's a long time, right? Like now it's, it's actually, you've been putting in the time. To grow it steadily. And so just talk to us a little bit about that persistence that you've had to go through to get the referrals, to get to be, you know, consistently adding that, to doing what you're called to do and yeah. Persistent, consistent over the last two years to keep it going
[00:11:46] DAVID: well, at least with coaching and with most things too, anything worth doing. Anything we're doing is worth doing poorly until you can learn how to do it. Well. Okay. So my calling is I'm supposed to coach people full [00:12:00] stop. That's it? So being persistent and consistent is having a long-term mindset. Like you're not trying to be a flash in the pan and you know, I'm going to dabble in this coaching thing, or if it doesn't work out good, go get a job or, you know, whatever. I'm sure. I'm sure. I'm not the only one in this call that is completely unemployable at this point. Okay. Am I the only one? Okay.
[00:12:25] RON: I Was unemployable when I was employed Let's just go. there
[00:12:28] CORY: That was the problem.
[00:12:30] DAVID: Yeah. That's a different story for a different time. But to answer your question, I think it's, you have to be committed because people aren't committed there. I mean, just look at the, look at the divorce rates, you know, it's, it's over 50%. If you look at most studies. And whenever you have a long-term mindset about what you'd like your life to look like, the little things that can stop you or halt your [00:13:00] progress, the roads out, it's just, you got a little pebble on the road and you go around the pebble. It's not a hammer that's going to end it. So I think it's making a daily mode of operation. To where I do this, this, this, and then this happens, I do this, this, this, and then this happens if I do this, this, this, this happens, which is bad. So I'm going to switch that and do something else. And I think that. Having a long-term mindset where everything doesn't have to be a home run. Sometimes you just hit a single, but if you hit enough singles, the other team is going to be wore out. If you string together six or seven or eight singles in a row, oh, you looked up, you've got seven runs on the board you don't always have to hit one 500 foot. You know? I mean, it's cool. I mean, chicks dig the long ball, you know, we all, we all know this but sometimes you just need to, sometimes I've heard it said like this, you may not have your best, or you may not be at your best, but give [00:14:00] the best you have today where you're just putting the work in, putting the work in, putting the work in that with a long-term mindset, I think is how you grow. But that goes back to the previous question about where you're not comparing yourself to someone else. Because if they've been putting the daily work in for the last five years, and you've been putting the daily work in for the last five minutes, they're probably going to have better results than you are, unless they're just terrible. So it's have a long-term mindset.
[00:14:30] RON: I love that. And I think there's always something to be grateful for
[00:14:34] DAVID: if you don't think there's anything to be grateful for, take it deep, big breath, oxygen,
[00:14:40] RON: right? Exactly. No, that's what I'm saying. There's always something to be grateful for. It doesn't matter how bad things are or whatever. If you look at it with through gratitude, your attitude changes. I mean, it changes like that. So I think that's huge, you know, going through all those pieces. It's it's one of those [00:15:00] things that I know has helped me get through some hard things was just being grateful.
[00:15:05] DAVID: Yeah. I think it was. I'm going to probably butcher the guy's name, but there's a guy named Hans sell. Ye I think is how you say his name. He said gratitude was, that is the healthiest of all human emotions, because you can always find something they're grateful for. Yes. Okay. You might have, your shoe might have, you know, the soul, you might've had a blow out on your shoe, but you have a. And you have a leg and you can walk and you know,
[00:15:35] RON: Probably have 15 other pairs of shoes at home.
[00:15:38] DAVID: Yes. Or you probably have the money to go buy another pair of shoes. It may not be the pair you want, but if you're willing to find $15, go find a pair of shoes, you'll find $15. Go find a pair of shoes, find someone to serve and say, or walk up to somebody, walk up to 15 random people and say, can I have a dollar [00:16:00] just because, and then take their money and go buy another pair of shoes.
[00:16:04] CORY: All right. So I want to switch gears a little bit in hindsight, hacking our goal is to hack your hindsight, to give our listeners clear foresight and put my question to you today around hindsight is you've got this business. Which has allowed you to feed your family for the last six years. And Ron mentioned already how you plan to have it as more of a legacy and at some point, give it to your son too, to be able to run like that's incredible. And even though it's not something you think about daily, Or even while doing what's something that you've really learned, went because you were able to start this business and move in this direction to be able to feed the family that has led you to now you're doing what you're called to do. And the coaching side, like what's that thing that you over the last six years. Been able to glean that it, Hey, if you're starting out, you can still get there, right? Like you can still get there. Maybe you wish you would've started to do what you called. You were called to do sooner or not, but what's that, [00:17:00] what's that advice you could give some, some people,
[00:17:02] DAVID: everything in life happens for you and not to you.
[00:17:05] CORY: I'm laughing here because this as you've listened to several of our shows, there is a point before Ron and I made the leap to leave the jobs where I got laid off. And I, I looked at Ron. And I was like, this happened to us or for us, I choose for and I was able to go all in and you know, then, you know, we never looked back. And so that's pretty, pretty funny. You said exactly that so
[00:17:30] DAVID: Okay well, but it's true because if you think about it, eventually, everything will work out and whatever you're going through now, presently we'll go through in the future, have gone through in the past. First off, you can't do anything about what you've done in the past. We can't do anything about the last five seconds, much less the last five years or the last 50 years. But that's a different story. If you come in with the mindset of eventually this will all work out, you have a peace about things where now you have to do the work. [00:18:00] You can't hire anyone to do your pushups for you. You've got,
[00:18:04] RON: I've tried, it does not work.
[00:18:06] DAVID: Yeah. Well, it works for them, but it doesn't work for you. They're looking stellar and you're looking like you haven't done any pushups, but it's also with the understanding that it's all going to work out and everything happens for you. I think with those mindset. It's when you pair that with having a long-term vision, like I'm going over here and I'm going this way now, but I'm going to get the ship going back and I'm going this direction. It just makes it to where more than likely when a negative event happens more than likely it's not going to be fatal for yourself or your business. Probably. I mean, it is possible but nine times out of a hundred. It's not, and isn't an actual problem or you just perceiving it to be a problem. You know, like I heard Earl Nightingale who did the audio, [00:19:00] the strangest secret if you have not heard this, this must listen to stuff, but he said successful people. It's not like successful people don't have problems. They deserve, learned how to solve their problems. So at first, like for example, for the pressure washing at first, for the first six months, I passed out a thousand flyers a week for six months, straight, hot, cold, whatever, every Monday me and a buddy pass out a thousand flyers a week. Some people did. You St work the squeeze. Sometimes they're not willing to do that. They say they are, but then when the rubber meets the road, they're not. So the hardest sale you'll ever make is the one you make to yourself. Because until you sold yourself, let me tell you a story. This isn't coaching, this is pressure washing, but it kind of applies work the very, very, very first time I got a pressure washing job before I was officially. Cause I had my other job A guy, I said, Hey, I do pressure washing. Would you, would you like a flyer? [00:20:00] He goes, yeah. He said, what do you charge? I said, I don't know what I said, a hundred dollars. He goes, when can you start? And I said tomorrow, like I had no idea what he was going to say, but I didn't believe it was possible because I had never done it before. But I've also heard, it said the key to self-confidence is keeping the promises you make to yourself. Where, if you said, like with y'all's guys, examples where you said we're going to leave our secure jobs, quote unquote, and we're going to start this thing over here. You made a plan, you acted on the plan. And then here you are today. You are an overnight success. In however many years I've been doing this, you know, but I think the whatever's currently going on and other hindsight Hack is whatever's going on. Has come to pass. It is not come to stay. Eventually it will get [00:21:00] better, you know, and you just have to have that mindset.
[00:21:04] RON: So many mic drops. That was so good. So I know we've kind of teased on it and talked about it, but I want to kind of give you the opportunity to talk a lot about your coaching and how people can get involved with you. Cause I'm sure people are like, Ooh, that sounds like something I need to be involved with. So tell us a little bit more about your coaching, how, how you help people, how are they involved with you and that kind of stuff?
[00:21:25] DAVID: Okay. Well the simple answer is we have conversations. I do almost none of the talking, I ask good questions, borderline great questions in my humble opinion. And I create the space for you to come up with your own answers because the answers are already inside you. It's just, it's been piled on and whatever by life and past circumstances and all that stuff where you haven't really thought about this for a while. So the short answer is. We have [00:22:00] conversations. I ask a few questions. I don't say a whole lot. And then your world changes. Okay. That's the, that's the simple answer. The longer answer is I like to give people an experience of how life-changing coaching can be versus telling people. How great coaching is. And as much where right now I've got two coaches and come January, I'm going to have three coaches for myself. And when people haven't experienced, Here here's a great quotation. Someone with an experience is never at the mercy of someone with an opinion, for example, I Have kidney stones. Okay. I wouldn't wish those on my worst enemy. It's the worst pain by a lot I've ever been in my whole life. That's a different story. Someone can tell me a doctor who's never had a kidney stone can tell me you're going to feel this, this, this, this, this, but if he's never had a kidney stone, he's, doesn't have an experience about it. [00:23:00] So when you have an experience and you just have an opinion, the people with an opinion, It doesn't really matter to you. You have an experience. So how it works is I give people an experience. I set aside basically 90 minutes, give or take, and we just talk about what's going on. What would you like to create potential blind spots in your life? Blind spots are interesting because I'm going to read this directly off a text. My friend sent me, this is the best definition I've ever heard about a blind spot blind spot. The area around the vehicle, construction equipment or person that is not visible to the operator either by direct line of sight or indirectly by use of internal and external mirrors so by definition of a blind spot, you don't know something there cause you can't see it. And that's what the coaching does. And it's, I'm going to show you something else. Do you want to put it on the screen? You all may have seen this before, but you [00:24:00] might not have. Okay. So insights can happen like this. Once you get an insight, you see what things one. Then you have the insight, then you see things in other way, for example. Okay. We've all seen this right. FedEx logo.
[00:24:14] RON: Yeah, I know the answer. So I can't look at it any other way it drives me nuts
[00:24:18] DAVID: look, there's an arrow between the E and the X. So now every time you see a FedEx logo, you won't be able to not see that arrow. So that's how the coaching is. We just have a conversation and then. Do you see things differently and we create something that didn't exist before we talked, because you might not have been aware or had any thoughts or knowledge. And I like to give people an experience.
[00:24:47] CORY: Love it. So what's what, who's your kind of ideal person that you're working with on a regular basis, obviously with referrals that sometimes that gets swapped around because you're not seeing it [00:25:00] but, yeah, who's kind of your main type of person that you're working with.
[00:25:03] DAVID: I like working with high performers by high performance. I mean, sustained excellence over time. You know, we're not talking one, hit one, hit wonders all. If we're talking high performers that have a long-term plan, I also have had great success with people whose income is directly tied to the results like sales people or whatever, because. Like, for example, one of my previous clients, guy named Troy, he makes great money by any stretch of the imagination, like to the tune of 400 grand. Okay. So in my world, that's great money to the high rollers I'm talking to over here. 400 grand might not be a whole lot of money, but to me that's a whole lot of money. Okay. But here's the deal. He didn't know where it was all going and simply by paying attention. He managed to say over at the time we worked together, he managed to save 75 grand [00:26:00] just simply by paying attention. I mean, one week he spent, I had him track it because he'd never tracked it before I had him track it the month before. Just eating out. They spent $2,400 in one month. I said, I know where you're going. I said, I know where all your money's going. He goes, where's that? I said, Chili's taco bell. Chick-Filet. I said, you're eating all your money. That didn't include grocery stores. Mind you, that was just going out to eat. Right? I mean, they were spending, they were spending four grand a month on food for a family of three. I said, if you ever heard of a thing called the stove and refrigerator oven and the microwave, you know, when you eat at home, it's a strange concept. I know, but those kinds of people to where generally, when you make a lot of money, you spend a lot of money too, and you don't know where it's going because I'm going to go make some, and I'm going to spend a lot more. And I'm going to spend a lot more than I make. And that was just one example, but I gravitate towards those kinds of people now.
[00:26:56] RON: No I think that's huge because we, my wife and I, we just made a [00:27:00] dinner last night. It was a filet minion on a portabella mushroom with some Gorgonzola on top. And then we had some broccoli and some rizotto right now, two meals that easily would have been well over a hundred bucks in a restaurant like that, right. It literally cost us the steak was expensive, but maybe maybe 50 bucks for the whole thing maybe, and we cooked our own food.
[00:27:27] DAVID: Yeah. Which is doable. because that same filet flight is my choice of meat, by the way. Medium. Thank you very much. We're done here
[00:27:33] CORY: When we come to Houston. We're going out to eat steak
[00:27:35] RON: I know and now I'm hungry and all of a sudden what just happened
[00:27:38] DAVID: Fellas it's on me whenever y'all come over here, it's on me. But with your filet, say you went to a meat market or Kroger or wherever you went to go bought your steak. It costs you 30 bucks. I'm just making this up. I have no idea, but if you go to Del Frisco's it's gonna cost you 60 plus tip [00:28:00] so that exact steak would cost you seventy. And then, you know, by the time you get macaroni and cheese and an appetizer and a dessert, you're at $300 for two people to eat.
[00:28:10] CORY: So you mentioned that you've, you've got currently have two coaches. You're about to have a third and Ron and I. We fully believe if you're a coach, you should have a coach, right? Like you should be bettering yourself and increasing your ability to teach what you want to teach. And the only way to do that is to have someone helping you along the way. And so what kind of coaches are you getting? I know Ron and I we've been very specific. At first, we were getting too many voices and had multiple coaches and then 20, 21 at the start of the year where like, okay, we've got our two coaches for the entire year. You know, sometimes we're specific to like, oh, we want to get really good at Facebook ads. So we're going to just learn from this person that does Facebook ads or whatever the situation was. But yeah. Tell us about like the coaches that you have and that. Uh, learning from
[00:28:57] DAVID: one co the coach that's gonna, I'm going to start. [00:29:00] That's one of my coach. Now that I'm going to start, I'm gonna hire on a one-on-one basis. Starting in January. He just allows me to see things from a different perspective. I've already been coaching with them in a group setting. With about nine or 10 other people since July. So I've already been doing that and it's more mindset, which is really everything. So I got that coach. I have another coach who. Helps me with my social media and, you know, making your profile look good and how to post on social media and what to post and when to post and all that stuff. And then I've got another coach who helps me be a better coach, because if he asked me a great question, Well guess who's about to get it next. The next person I talked to is going to get the exact same question, you know? So it's that, that's what, that's what it is right now. Plus I read a lot of books. If someone has a book, I don't have one where I can reach it. Someone has a [00:30:00] book and it's, you know, 200 pages and it's $20. They've poured months or years into their life for 20 bucks. I mean, it's a stone cold bargain.
[00:30:11] RON: Right, right.
[00:30:12] DAVID: You know and Books have the potential to change your life. Now, have I have heard Jim Kwik who wrote the book limitless. He works with all the movie stars on memorizing their lines. He works with will Smith and people you've heard of, he says, if you're reading to read, like you're reading a novel or whatever, maybe as long as you want, but if you're reading to consume, I think he says 25 to 28 minutes is maximum. Or you're going to start seeing your, your ability to comprehend and recall and retain info start going down after I think 28 minutes. So I set my timer for 25. When the timer goes off, I may finish the page I'm on. So I know that's going to take three minutes, then I'll get up and take a five or 10 minute break and let my brain kind of reset. Before I dive back in. I'm not the [00:31:00] days of me reading for like two hours straight or over, but reading, you know, 30 minutes a day could change your whole life
[00:31:05] RON: I agree, a hundred percent. I agree. 125%. So I, I love that we had a chance to chat with you today and, and I know we can keep going, but I want to be true to our time that we picked. So one, I just want to thank you for your time. I love having you on the show, so you're welcome back. Any, any time. But why don't you tell everyone one last time, how to connect with you and where they can find you?
[00:31:29] DAVID: Yeah. This has been a blast. I just looked at the clock not right now. And I thought we'd been talking for about 10 minutes and we've been talking for almost 30. So yeah, this is, this has been a blast. The best way to get ahold of me. David creel.com. It's got phone number, email, LinkedIn, YouTube channel. At the lot I mean the lot. Okay. It's got everything. I'm on LinkedIn, the David Creole. I'm on Facebook, David Creel. I'm pretty much everywhere, but the best place is David creel.com. There's a free wheel of life assessment that we talked about earlier. And then at the bottom, [00:32:00] I've got my book available that I just wrote with Tom Ziglar.
[00:32:04] RON: Nice love it
[00:32:05] CORY: yeah, I think Ron and I might need to get up, get a copy of that book and start down that process. But I think more importantly, Is, we should plan for another round. We should plan for a March or something, reconnect and then, you know, see, see where the years go and see how all of us are doing. And, and then talk about it. Live on the show.
[00:32:28] Whenever you are ready, I'm down whenever y'all are
