| 0:00.0 | Mr. Elta, let's kick off this incredible Friday training with your takeaway of the month. |
| 0:06.5 | And I know we had one hell of a month this week alone with office hours and the 70-some interviews |
| 0:13.3 | that took place. But what has been your takeaway for the month? Oh, I had so many great takeaways, |
| 0:19.0 | but the takeaway came late in the game from Roy Kataya, |
| 0:23.7 | one of my dear friends, an executive producer of GoFund Yourself, former CEO of Verb, |
| 0:29.5 | and we just had a beautiful exit for $525 million eight weeks ago. |
| 0:35.0 | So congratulations, Rory, no doubt you had my takeaway of the day when he said, |
| 0:39.2 | if you think or can do somebody else's job better on your team than they can, then go find a new team |

| 1:18.8 | of what was a great one for all of those OCD overachievers that try to do everything. Make sure you |
| 1:25.5 | have the right team members. And that's absolutely |
| 1:28.7 | been a secret sauce. But you need to pour into those team members. People are amazed by our team |
| 1:34.3 | members from Colleen to Mikey, to Nick, to Marissa, to Chris, all the amazing people. And the |
| 1:39.6 | list goes on, Mitra and Desi and whoever else is in there. |
| 1:48.3 | They're just amazing people, but we pour into them every Monday, Wednesday, Friday. |
| 1:52.2 | This is a mandatory Friday training for my team. |
| 1:54.8 | And then we have a Friday meeting mandatory. |
| 1:56.4 | We have a Monday meeting. We have Monday Ask Me Anythings. |
