So how do you know 244 00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,480 Speaker 6: when it's time to start a new business in a 245 00:13:15,520 --> 00:13:17,120 Speaker 6: new industry. 246 00:13:17,679 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 8: I don't think you never really know when it's time 247 00:13:20,800 --> 00:13:24,040 Speaker 8: because ideas something could come right now, you know, and 248 00:13:24,520 --> 00:13:27,600 Speaker 8: I do one thing at a time, and then as 249 00:13:27,640 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 8: I keep going, every you know, it grows. So I 250 00:13:31,440 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 8: don't think, well, for me, it's not like, oh, it's 251 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:38,120 Speaker 8: time to do something. When it comes, it comes. You know, 252 00:13:38,400 --> 00:13:43,360 Speaker 8: it's never really a plan. It's just organic. And then 253 00:13:43,440 --> 00:13:46,880 Speaker 8: when it comes, then you start planning and you start strategizing. 254 00:13:47,240 --> 00:13:49,240 Speaker 7: So it's always creative for me. 255 00:13:49,400 --> 00:13:51,920 Speaker 8: When it flows, it flows, when it comes, it comes, 256 00:13:52,000 --> 00:13:54,119 Speaker 8: and then I bring it, you know, to the team, 257 00:13:54,240 --> 00:13:57,880 Speaker 8: and then you know, like that, I mean for me, 258 00:13:58,720 --> 00:13:59,640 Speaker 8: that's that's how it goes. 259 00:13:59,679 --> 00:13:59,920 Speaker 5: For me. 260 00:14:00,559 --> 00:14:02,800 Speaker 4: It's interesting because as you get more creative and more 261 00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:04,839 Speaker 4: business opportunities come to you.
