And I really do focus on meeting people where they are because I think this industry deserves the love and care, so to speak. There's one of me to go around and that's always a fit for everyone and even people on my team. We only have so many hours in the day, so we do try to publish a lot of content. I try to respond. I wake up every morning to 150 LinkedIn messages. When I delete the 50 that are from recruiters and people trying to sell me franchise opportunities, I try to respond to the other hundred, so to speak. Randy 00:43:00.392 - 00:44:21.808 Good. I love that. I'm going to end with this because there are so many different directions that we could go. And I want to be respectful of your time and hopefully, we can probably have you back. I think the feedback that we'll get from this episode will be tremendous. I've always had to remind design professionals that the work they do really does matter. In a lot of instances, it is a life-or-death proposition. I always say when I do leadership training, I'm like, you guys, being design professionals are responsible for the built environment. And sometimes they just need that reminder to know that the work that they do really does matter and that there's no space to phone it in or anything like that and they have to also carry themselves a certain way. And I think in the same way that they carry themselves as design professionals, they need to carry themselves with the understanding that things like AI are going to fully inform what they do moving forward. And if they want to take the ostrich approach of just sticking their head in the sand because they are just afraid of what the future holds with AI, then we, our society are going to be a direct benefit of that inability to be malleable as things change and as new opportunities arise.
