Guess what? In like 2015, 2016, even into 2017, we never went to bed at night without answering

0:12.8

every single event. But we're not content. We're always thinking more of a long term or thinking,

0:20.8

well, hey, where are we going to be three to five years from now? And the answer to that is just

0:24.5

probably not these digital templates. Which actually really interesting, this is a note that I wrote down

0:29.4
