And I'm not saying that
707
00:48:50,677 --> 00:48:53,055
what we are doing
will solve these issues.
708
00:48:53,138 --> 00:48:54,306
But I do know that
709
00:48:54,389 --> 00:48:59,144
what we are doing will
generate prototype of new way
710
00:48:59,227 --> 00:49:02,606
of doing things, which we
desperately need right now.
711
00:49:02,689 --> 00:49:05,401
Because if you're
trying the same things
712
00:49:05,484 --> 00:49:07,820
and then expecting
a different result,
713
00:49:07,903 --> 00:49:09,321
that's the definition
of insanity.
714
00:49:09,404 --> 00:49:13,659
So I feel like it is crucial
that we try something new.

739
00:50:16,847 --> 00:50:19,516
I was doing bad had to
pull myself up out the mud

that I was through

Oh, now I'm a bum because
I work a normal job like you?
747
