Just a little. >> [laughter] >> Like do you still have like peaks and valleys in your career or just in your drive, your grit? For sure. Yeah, absolutely.

Like I feel like maybe it should be coming a little bit easier. And sometimes when it comes to easy, which is funny, like you feel like you're not working hard enough.
