Evidence Quote

number one lesson the second lesson is list just just actively listening...we're very high execute people...I feel 95% confident that I'm right about this but more times than not and the longer that I do it I've been wrong um so like sitting down and actively listening...the older I get the the more and more I listen and the more and more I keep my mouth shut
