You know, it so resonates with me. I'll never forget the first speech I gave when I was mayor elect and I did the same as governor elect. I said, I'm the future ex mayor of San Francisco. I said the same thing. A future ex governor having that mindset of the temporary nature of this. but also the freedom that comes from that and not trying to hold on to that and become someone you're not. It's so. I mean, I've seen that. I've seen. (20:49–20:58)
