And that was at 8:00 a.m. in the more 8:30 in the morning and by 3:00 p.m. I had 10 or 10 scheduled and I said Hey I beat the record. And sure enough it was like How did you do this how did you do this? I was like well you know I focused on kind of laid out my process and then I thought I’m like wait I could have done this. And then I wouldn’t have got a No from that person. And so just you know having an open mind and don’t be afraid to share what you’re doing with other people because you know the more you talk about it the more you’re going to uncover of how to get better as well.
