[00:52:33] S1: Do you create challenge for them? [00:52:35] S0: We try, I mean, I try to construct challenge, but you have to construct it, right? It's a little bit harder, and they get a lot of positives. Like they could have tutors, they could, you know, go to all kinds of museums that I didn't have [00:52:50] S1: They have safety. [00:52:51] S0: Yeah, but they have safety. And I think there's something very important about having to struggle and endure. I try to create that environment as much as possible, but I think I haven't figured it out. So I think that's a big part of it, and also probably as we were talking before, it's a good bit of nature versus nurture. Maybe I was just born like that, and don't know how much of it's the environment either. [00:53:19] S1: I think if we take it away for advice for other leaders, it is just the optimistic take that whatever challenge you're going through will make you more level in the future. [00:53:28] S0: I think Bezos said this, right? The best approach to all of these challenges is just grow thick skin. You can control that about yourself, but you can't control the outside world. So if you can actually do that, I think it seems to be a big superpower that not everyone is capable of. [00:53:44] S1: Awesome. Thanks so much, Vlad. This is great. [00:53:46] S0: Thanks for having me.
