[00:00:00] Speaker 1: There's way too many opportunities. There's too many important projects that are coming to us. We live in a world where a huge part of what we do as leaders is have to decide where we're going to place our bets. And it can't be on everything that's important. And so I think right off the bat, just to empathize with what you're saying, we have to admit as a leader, you have more opportunity, more important projects than you could ever pursue. With that reality, if you try to do all of them, you will do very few things well.
