Are you guys very excited to be getting back into the saddle? And Brad and I just wrapped up our wonderful Red X Month.

Took the month of August off and I know we've been missing this platform missing you guys excited to be back.

So to help me with this side of my coast Brad, here's me today. How you doing buddy?

Hey, Jonathan, I am doing quite well. Yeah, September 2021, it's hard to believe. Our beloved Red X Month is over.

But yeah, it's always good to be back here with you chatting and yeah, sending this out to the world.

So I don't know, would you deem this your first Red X Month ever? And I guess also with that, explain to the people who may not have known about it. What the Red X Month is.

Yeah, I think people were surprised that the veracity with which I tackled veracity, tenacity.

Yeah, okay. With the zest, the amount of zest that I brought into this Red X Month, like I just shut down, I was unavailable.

You could not contact me. We could not do meetings. And the idea behind the Red X Month inspired by Vincent Paglisi from Freelance to Freedom and Total Life Freedom.

It was this idea that what if you could just, you know, look at your calendar and ahead of time, just take a month and just take a red marker and just put an X through it.

Just, and for that month, you're unavailable. You're unavailable to, you know, maybe the normal routine of life.

You just kind of prioritize whatever it is you want. You prioritize your family, prioritize, you know, things that you've been putting off.

It doesn't mean necessarily that you leave or go on vacation, but just you're not available for your normal routine.

You're not available for your job or for your corporation that you work for, etc.

And you and I had talked about this and you had done a better job implementing this in past years, but this was the first year that I kind of committed to it as well.
