All right, we're going to do a Q&A, so I'm going to give you this mic, Robert, this is the hot mic.

I'll switch your mics here.

Welcome, sir.

Thank you.

This is the most interesting place I've been to.

Go ahead.

Most interesting place has ever been to.

Craig is mic up nice and hot.

Most interesting, seriously, ever?

It's you. I I mean it's fantastic

now you have said I'm quoting from one of your books you wrote here the size of

your success is measured the size of your success is measured by the strength of your

desire the size of your of your dream and how you handle disappointment along the way.

To me, that move the needle for me. I want to get your thoughts, because sometimes people come to

conferences like this or a different conference, and they're excited. They learn the practical knowledge,

but then once they get the first ounce of disappointment, then they quit.

I want to get your thoughts on just persistence.

Well, if I could piggyback what you were doing just a little while ago up here,

what my rich dad taught me said that life is about skill sets.

So I was coming out of the Marine Corps, I was stationed in Hawaii for my last two years.

And my poor dad said, I go back to school, go fly for the airlines.

I said, Dad, you don't want a helicopter, gunship pilot flying your hell of aircraft, you know.
