- 11:41are,
- 11:41then
- 11:41I
- 11:41think
- 11:41you
- 11:41can
- 11:42just.
- 11:42Maybe
- 11:42if
- 11:43you're
- 11:43getting
- 11:43so
- 11:43many
- 11:43weddings,
- 11:43you
- 11:44can
- 11:44just
- 11:44take
- 11:44a
- 11:44break
- 11:44anyway.
- 11:46But,
- 11:46yeah,
- 11:47that
- 11:47was
- 11:47kind
- 11:47of
- 11:47the
- 11:47beginning
- 11:48of
- 11:48it.
- 11:48And
- 11:48it's
- 11:48interesting,
- 11:49isn't
- 11:49it?
- 11:49Because
- 11:49in
- 11:49our
- 11:50heads,
- 11:50often
- 11:50we
- 11:51tell
- 11:51ourselves,
- 11:51if
- 11:52we
- 11:52work
- 11:52harder,
- 11:52we
- 11:53do
- 11:53better.
- 11:54And
- 11:54actually,
- 11:54we
- 11:54also
- 11:55know,
- 11:56on
- 11:56the
- 11:56contrary,
- 11:56that
- 11:56people
- 11:57say
- 11:57to
- 11:57us,
- 11:57you
- 11:57know,
- 11:58take
- 11:58the
- 11:58break,
- 11:58and
- 11:58then
- 11:58you'll
- 11:59be
- 11:59more
- 11:59productive
- 11:59down
- 12:00the
- 12:00line.
- 12:00So
- 12:00it's
- 12:00interesting
- 12:01that
- 12:01although
- 12:01you
- 12:02are
- 12:02forced
- 12:02into
- 12:02that
- 12:03break,
- 12:04actually
- 12:04when
- 12:04you
- 12:04reflected,
- 12:05it
- 12:06didn't
- 12:06impact
- 12:06your
- 12:07business
- 12:08very
- 12:08much.
- 12:08But
- 12:09actually,
- 12:09the
- 12:10positive
- 12:10impact
- 12:11it
- 12:11would
- 12:11have
- 12:11had
- 12:11on
- 12:11you,
- 12:12your
- 12:12health,
- 12:12your
- 12:13family
- 12:13time,
- 12:14your
- 12:14personal
- 12:14life
- 12:15would
- 12:15have
- 12:15been
- 12:15huge,
- 12:16I
- 12:16imagine.
- 12:16Totally.
- 12:17And
- 12:17I
- 12:17think
- 12:17we
- 12:18forget
- 12:18a
- 12:18lot
- 12:18of
- 12:18times
- 12:18as,
- 12:19like,
- 12:19business
- 12:19owners,
- 12:20like,
- 12:20we
- 12:20are
- 12:20our
- 12:21own
- 12:21best
- 12:22asset.
- 12:23So,
- 12:23like,
- 12:23if
- 12:23we're
- 12:24not
- 12:24taking
- 12:24care
- 12:24of
- 12:24ourselves,
- 12:25like,
- 12:26you
- 12:26don't
- 12:26have
- 12:26a
- 12:26business.
- 12:27And
- 12:27that's
- 12:27actually
- 12:27not
- 12:28dramatic.
- 12:28That's.
- 12:29That
- 12:29is
- 12:29a
- 12:29fact.
- 12:29Like,
- 12:30if
- 12:30you
- 12:30are
- 12:30your
- 12:30business
- 12:31and
- 12:32you.
- 12:32Your

- 23:24to
- 23:24have
- 23:24less
- 23:24work,

- 23:25that's
- 23:25up
- 23:25to
- 23:26you.
- 23:27My
- 23:28behind
- 23:28the
- 23:28scenes
- 23:28team
- 23:28takes
- 23:29off
- 23:29between
- 23:29Christmas
- 23:30and
- 23:30New
- 23:30Year's
- 23:30and
- 23:31other
