Cafecito with Noah
#4 - The Art of Learning from Loss, Failure, and Life's Impermanence
Ever found yourself so fixated on the end goal that you've forgotten to enjoy the journey? That's the heart and soul of our latest conversation, where we unpack the 'Super Mario effect'—a fascinating look at how our response to setbacks can define our path to success. Join me as I candidly reflect on days when my energy isn't at its peak and how the pursuit of authenticity can be more fulfilling than a flawless facade. We'll also explore the Buddhist teachings of non-attachment through the ephemeral beauty of sand mandalas, finding peace in the temporary and celebrating the present moment.
This episode isn't just a solo mission; friends from Instagram live, like the motivational Tosh from my fitness saga, join in to share how facing failure can be a powerful catalyst for growth. We dissect the impact of traditional point-based education systems and open up about personal battles with shame and embarrassment. The cherry on top? A spontaneous dive into Taoism, inspired by a thought-provoking question from a viewer on Twitch. So, whether you're looking to transform your approach to learning or simply in need of a Cafesito-fueled chat that traverses the landscapes of philosophy, education, and self-improvement, this is where you want to tune in.
You're about to hear what's coming up next on this episode of Cafesito with Noah. So you have these two opposing viewpoints. One of them is like, set these goals and go get them, and the other one is like, well, you're going to be unhappy if you set these goals. So what I think is cool about the Super Mario effect is it says it's not about the goal or the journey. Regardless of whether you're focused on outcome or if you're focused on journey, how you process failure is what is going to define the quality of your experience. That's what we're talking about right now, and we are live, if I'm not mistaken, for another Cafesito with Noah session. Cheers. Today we're actually having Cafesito real coffee. Let's see. We're doing a Nitro Brew with vanilla sweet cream, and I should get started on Instagram as well.
Speaker 1:This is Instagram right here for those of you on Twitch Hello, hello. Hope everybody is having a fantastic Monday. Let's go ahead and do an audio check, because we know my record with that. Yep, it's live, it is happening. Very nice, welcome Instagram. We got started with Twitch a moment ago and we're here.
Speaker 1:Oh hi, sophie, first person to come say hello, how's your day going? So today is interesting. The vibe is chill. I've been in a bit of a heavy space all day, so it's especially confrontational to my ego to try to go live in the middle of having a weird heavy day. The ego likes to say that well, if you're not having the best day of your life, then what the hell are you doing? Going live, and I think that is a bar that is way too high. You know, I'm me and that's valuable any given day of the week in any emotional state. So here we are and I want to share with you guys. You know, and at the end of the day, all of that egoic thinking just keeps me alone in a room, not sharing with anyone. So here we are despite all of that. Funny enough, I had a nice jolt of energy today. I dropped off a bunch of stuff at Goodwill, did some recondoing, like two days ago. So many ironic things, so much life happening all at once. Right now I've been working on this space. It's a studio space, it's an office space. I've been working on it for about a year now, getting it just beautiful. And it's there. You know, it's there. We made it and this recent Goodwill drop, I finally got rid of a bunch of clutter. So we've arrived just in time to potentially not even continue to live at this place. So that is ironic, that is wild. It is incredible to walk this like long journey to get to this place where everything is like so organized and gorgeous and wonderful, only to basically have to say goodbye to it.
Speaker 1:I brought this up in therapy I think it was like last week, and my therapist had something absolutely incredible to share with me he this is what this is. I always tell him this is why he gets paid the big bucks. You know, he made this connection and he made a connection to the, to the sort of Sandman dollars that the monks do. I don't know exactly which faction of monks do it, but there is a faction of monks and they get the little colored sand and they sit outside or wherever it is that they're doing this at a temple and they make an artistic, beautiful mandala on the ground and it takes them, takes them a while. I mean it takes them at.
Speaker 1:I think it's a few days, maybe even a week, maybe even a few weeks. I'm not sure how long it takes. It depends on how intricate and how large the piece is, but by the end of it they destroy it, so they finish this huge thing and then they just, you know, wipe the sand all over the place. And it's remarkable because it really is embodying non attachment and embodying that sort of releasing and really acknowledging the impermanence of life and and all of these things that we create, and sort of an homage to the fact that the one thing you can count on is change. But anyway, when he put it in the context of those guys, you know, doing their mandalas and wiping away the sand, I was just like, yeah, all right, if they can do that, then, you know, I can find joy in making the office beautiful just for the sake of making it beautiful. I mean, if I have to wipe it away and move it, you know, sooner than I expected or ever wanted, but yeah, so that's one of the nuggets for this week for me.
Speaker 1:That's kind of coming up things I'm going through, things I'm thinking about. What are some other things? If you guys have any nuggets, things you're going through, things you're thinking about, I would love to start a dialogue. Cofisito with Noah really is supposed to be something of a dialogue, but insofar as I'm hanging out here by myself right now, I'm going to keep on riffin'. So about riffing and about hanging out by myself, I've got my podcast, god Mode A Player's Guide to Life.
Speaker 1:God Mode A Player's Guide to Life is a jam. I put my friends on there. We talk about things. It's a great time Also gives me a mine, if you will like something for mining, like a reservoir, a trove to go to and get cool content and share that. Again back to this concept of sharing. But there's a lot that goes on around it. You know, got to book people. They got to come here. I spend an hour talking to them, get them on camera, set up the microphones. Then I get to process all the audio color, correct the footage, cut the footage, make an intro video, splice it together, post that thing to the internet and then go through, find the clips, edit the clips, edit them horizontal, edit them vertical, post the clips. So it's a whole process, right.
Speaker 1:So I've been thinking what if there was like another offering, which was something like Aficito with Noah, except not so long form? Hi, yarras, thank you for saying hi on Twitch. What was I saying? Oh, so it's not going to be so long form. It might be a bit more short form, kind of like a YouTube video style talking head thing, but the idea that I would just come on and sort of be a podcast of one. I've only heard of one example of this in the past. I don't know many other ones, but she apparently does quite well and she has listeners, and that would be neat because I am definitely the unending resource in my own life and you know I'm already thinking about a million things every day. So what if I just put them on the internet and kind of made the audience, aka you guys, the participant, right Like the audience, becomes the guest of the podcast. So that's something that's an interesting idea I've had and, in a sort of expression of that idea, we can kind of mess around with it right now.
Speaker 1:So what happens this week? Obviously, like every week, there's current events, things that come up. Maybe I see a meme or something on social media, that kind of thing. Let's send some waves, I hope. Maybe that makes that's like nice, look, everybody got waved at. Anyway, it's current events, right. So right now I think AI art generation is popping off. They've got the chat, gpt Gosh, the freaking Instagram limit. There we go. Instagram limit hits me again, but we're back. So we got AI art popping off. We got the chat GPT whatever the hell it's called GPT, let me see, I'm going to look it up GPT, yep, open AI chat, gpt. So it's very funny because my buddy, like Hunter, and I have been following this for a while. There's like a whole Reddit where AI chatbots have been commenting. So one AI chatbot will post a main post on the Reddit and then all the other chatbots actually sometimes it's the same exact bot, right, but they'll post comments and a lot of times this can be very funny.
Speaker 1:But one of the big things that's happened like in the last week or so, that's like kind of come into vogue or like stepped into center stage is people are like getting answers to tests. Now they're getting scripts to YouTube videos. They can get the AI to write them a rap song Pretty wild, to be honest. I haven't fully dove into that yet the writing part of the AI situation. I've been more playing with the digital art side. You know I've been playing with mid journey. I played with the journey about a month ago. For a few weeks I've been using Hunter stable diffusion app.
Speaker 1:Nick says Skynet is here. Yeah, skynet is here. Hopefully. You know, man at the end of the like God. I don't know, maybe I've just been pessimistic lately, but at this point in humanity's trajectory AI might be more compassionate towards humans than humans are towards humans. So I mean, at this point I'm like man. Maybe AI is going to help us out, you know, I just it's like God damn, we could use some support On that note, I was.
Speaker 1:We've been watching, I've been watching a neon Genesis Evangelion again for like the third time. They have the magi system, right, the three supercomputers that crunch numbers, predict the future essentially, and then vote on how they should proceed. And it's pretty interesting, you know, because we just got, I mean, what this was, when was, let's see, when neon Genesis Evangelion was released. The release date was 1995, right. And one of the things they said in the recent episode is how the government in Eva is just a sort of like puppet government and they're just doing what these computers say. Pretty interesting. You combine that with the Skynet concept, you combine that with this idea that maybe the computer would be more compassionate than humans and, who knows, I mean definitely challenges the idea of free will If everybody just blindly follows what a bunch of computers say. So not necessarily an obvious aspiration in that regard, but maybe some sort of cooperation is useful. We'll see.
Speaker 1:So, yeah, ai chats, ai art those are big. Those have been big things this week and generally, I find that like I have like something to say about the media that I consume in general. For example, it's something like a reaction video and maybe I'm not. I have to figure out sort of like the form of how I could create this content for the world and for you guys, but it's kind of like a reaction video. For example, this week I saw Colin and Samir. Colin and Samir is a super cool YouTube channel and it's centered around interviewing creators on a podcast, seeing what's working for them, what sort of systems they have in place, how they're viewing the creator economy, etc. Etc.
Speaker 1:And I caught a video this week while I was messing around with some AI art generation, and the video that I watched was about Mark Rober. He's an engineer. He used to work at NASA. He has worked at Apple I don't think he works at Apple anymore and he makes these awesome videos on the internet that are very fun. He's always engineering some crazy shit. I actually took his engineering course online about a year and a half ago. It was really fun.
Speaker 1:So I was watching this Colin and Samir video about Mark Rober and in it Mark talks about the Super Mario effect. He calls it the Super Mario effect and I'll share it here, because this is the kind of thing I'm talking about. Right, I heard this and I had an original sort of like oh Noah, I have a personal response to this. How can I share that with people? Here I am, I'm sharing it in Kapasita with Noah. This is the form it's taking. So the Super Mario effect is basically.
Speaker 1:Mark points out how, when we play Super Mario Bros and we're like jumping through level one or whatever, there's like those holes and if you've like missed the jump, then you just die and it's like boop, boop and you start over again. Da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da da. Hopefully that wasn't as bad I have had the headphones on whatever, so anyway, you know you start over again. So what he's talking about is when we die in Super Mario Bros, we don't say to ourselves like, oh, I'm putting down the remote and I'm never playing this game again. We don't do that. We are like, oh, I ran too slowly and I hit this gap, I'm going to run faster next time. I'm going to jump later next time and then we run a little bit faster, we jump a little bit later, we make it past the gap and we keep going.
Speaker 1:Well, he ran an experiment with his followers where, essentially, they were given a puzzle to solve and it was an A-B test. So half of the followers were given this puzzle and there were no points involved, and the other half of his followers were given a puzzle and there were points involved and the points were completely arbitrary. They didn't buy you anything. They were just like points, completely arbitrary, vacuous points. For the B people, he would take away five points every time they lost, but he would give them like 10 or 15 or 20 or whatever every time they won. For the A people, he would. There were no points at all. They just played the game just to play the game, and I actually have a piece of content about infinite games playing the game to play the game, right.
Speaker 1:Anyway, it's cool how that's going to overlap right now, because what ended up happening was the people who got the minus points would quit playing the game sooner, because they would not. The way that they were conceptualizing failure was that they were not only failing but they were losing something every time that they failed, whereas the people who just played the game for the game's sake didn't have this perception that they were losing resources and so they continued to invest and they just kept trying to problem solve the game, and they were twice as good at playing the game as the other people who were getting points taken off the Super Mario Effect. I thought this was really neat and interesting because I mean in my own life, a million times, no doubt about it you know when it feels like I mean, even in school, specifically right, school was brutal with this but when you feel you're getting these points off, you don't want to keep chomping over the gap because it feels like you're bleeding. You know like you're just bleeding these resources but at the end of the day, what Mark points out is it's really arbitrary and it's all happening in our head Like we're the ones who give it the meaning. It's not like there were no real points, like there was nothing lost.
Speaker 1:And I guess in life what we're trading constantly is time and it's ironic because by participating in this idea that I'm losing points, knowing that on a psychological level it's going to get in the way of me ultimately learning, which theoretically, the idea is I could learn anything. I'm actually losing time, more time, by engaging in the point system because I'm ejecting from the learning process, whereas, even if it took me a little while longer to learn something, maybe I'm struggling, although I'm experiencing failure often, but I'm not conceptualizing failure as terminal or a waste of resources. Then I'm just going to keep attacking the problem and I'm actually going to get better at it and I'm actually going to learn, which means I'm going to end up spending more time in my life having acquired the thing that I sought to acquire in the first place. In that regard, even though you might spend more time jumping over the gap and you might spend more time failing, you're not losing time. Losing time, in my opinion, if you really pause and think about it, happens when you basically quit early and then are now spending hours of your life having not integrated the thing that you went to go after and to integrate. So if that's learning, if that's achieving some sort of goal or whatever it is, you're now losing time if you have stopped playing, if you've stopped jumping the gap. So Saturday says you're just focused on the journey and learning when you're not constantly being affected by an expectation of an outcome. That is an interesting statement. Let's see this slowly now.
Speaker 1:Well, you know, what's kind of fucking cool about this whole Super Mario effect is because I've heard this thing about. You know, there's like the whole internet and the whole self-help community seems to be split in half around outcomes and results and shit like this. You know, half of everything we learn is about don't be attached. You know that allows you to like follow the cheese when the cheese moves, it allows you to be agile and it also connects you to happiness. You know, I've heard that. You know a goal is a contract you set with yourself to be unhappy until a certain date when a certain condition is met. I think that's funny. So you have these two opposing viewpoints. One of them is like set these goals and go get them, and the other one is like well, you're going to be unhappy if you set these goals.
Speaker 1:So what I think is cool about the Super Mario effect is it says it's not about the goal or the journey. I mean, I guess ultimately it becomes about the journey. But the people who play Super Mario, their goal is to beat the game Like. Their goal is to get over that gap. You know, and they're very focused on it, like even me, as an example, like I was very focused on, like beating that level. It has to do with this points thing and it has to do with failure. It's almost like as if the whole Super Mario effect concept is saying, regardless of what your goal is and regardless of whether you're focusing on outcome or you're focusing on journey, regardless, how you process failure is going to determine how you're progressing and and also maybe even color your general experience of either. So maybe it's saying how you process failure is going to determine if you're enjoying the journey. How you process failure is going to determine if you arrive at the outcome, which I imagine you would enjoy it once you arrived at the outcome, and how you process failure could also make the journey extremely painful and not enjoyable, at which point you'll eject, likely, from the journey and never arrive at the outcome.
Speaker 1:It's a whole trip. What's up? Like the do? How's it going, bro? Let me. I can barely see you guys on the Instagram chat, so I've got to whip this up. I've got my computer open. There it is Dwight. I thought it was Dwight. How's it going, brother. Here you have a wave. Hi, tosh. Thank you so much for jumping in and peaking. Hello, hello, how are you doing? Well, I think about you all the time, tosh, like for real. I've been doing a whole workout program and trying to get myself in a great shape and I'm always like dude. I got to catch up to Tosh, got to catch up to Tosh, never forgot. How's it going? How am I? I'm doing great. I've got my coffee seat here. So if you've got a little coffee, cheers to you, cheers to Tosh. I'm going to put everybody in here right now.
Speaker 1:This is my Monday.
Speaker 1:It's usually like a 30 minute to an hour long stream and we just chat. We're chatting about life. I like to start a dialogue, my guy. So if you're hanging around for a minute, please tell me how your week is going. Tell me what's on your mind, what are some? You know, what's like a post that's popped up in your life lately that got your attention. Maybe you had something to say about it.
Speaker 1:What we were just talking about, if I could do a quick, you know recap for you Something called the Super Mario effect, and what we boiled it down to is, regardless of whether you're focused on an outcome, which is, like generally regarded as like a way to propagate suffering. But regardless of whether you're focused on outcome or if you're focused on journey at least this is where I'm at right now with it how you process failure is what is going to define the quality of your experience. That's what we're talking about right now. And, just so you know, when you're in an environment where it seems that you're leaking resources per failure, human psychology suggests that you are less likely to continue engaging with failure, which, ironically, engaging with failure is ultimately what leads to competence and success. So you need to be able to continue engaging with failure. So, which means we got to rethink the way we're managing resources and just be really conscious.
Speaker 1:I mean, we can't always determine the arena that we're in, and sometimes other people set the rules. And for you know that I think school is a perfect example of that Like, at least for now. You know I didn't get out of it. I know there's millions of people currently in it and where we've just proved, basically, that losing points impedes progress, and yet school is completely based on that. So tough, tough little piece of information there. What am I saying? Oh right, if you're in the arena. You can't choose the arena, so it's up to us then to be aware of this and make a sort of conversion in our minds. So if I was in school right now, for example, I would have to be very conscious of reinterpreting the point loss as something other than a point loss. I mean it's, you know, it's definitely extra steps, but yeah, so that was the Super Mario Effect.
Speaker 1:You know me doing a little blurb on it is kind of like a potential another form of content for me. Yep, school taught you that failure equals embarrassment. Uh-huh, I get that Brutal man Brutal, you know, it's funny when we went to MITT Dylan. Dylan is big on education and it's kind of like his whole mission to be involved in the educational institution and to upgrade it, basically, and we really connected on that front, because I too would like to help education in some way. For me it's a bit more abstract, I guess. Personally, I think it would also be neat for me to explore some online educational opportunities. I enjoy watching Veritasium, which is a fantastic YouTube channel, and they're always plugging this like company called Brilliant, and apparently Brilliant has like these awesome modules on the internet where you can learn things like economics, statistics, physics, stuff like that, and they have these like little like interactive lab, sort of like games that you can play, and I'm under the impression that these websites are implementing these best practices in terms of like encouraging students to learn, rather than making that process more difficult than it needs to be.
Speaker 1:I just felt the other aid of that, the other side of that. This weekend, I finally did ropes. Dude, please tell me about that. What do you mean? The other side of that? You felt the accomplishment side. I don't want to put words in your mouth, so please clarify, which side did you feel? Also, was it cold? It feels like it must have been really freaking cold. You experienced the other side, but which side? Which side were you on and which side did you go to?
Speaker 1:By the way, for everybody on Twitch, I'm interacting with my Instagram following right now, the Twitch chat is actually really quiet. Oh, it was warm. What would you look at that? That's nice, wow, yeah, actually I saw an awesome Russell Brand and Jordan Peterson video this week too. So, yeah, dwight is saying that he would normally have failure, be a heavy weight to him and feel shame, or actually shame himself for it. Dot dot, dot. He is typing Rebecca. Welcome to the stream, rebecca, hello. Hello, we're talking about how we process failure.
Speaker 1:What is Taoism? We have a wonderful question that just popped up in Twitch man. Taoism is, if I'm not mistaken, one of the three ancient Chinese philosophies. The other two, I guess they're considered Eastern philosophies. In my estimation, the three of them are Taoism, buddhism and Taoism, buddhism and Confuciism. So that is what Taoism is. It's phenomenal man. We can get into it. Let me know if you have any other questions.
Speaker 1:Doing the leap of faith, I didn't reach the appointed goal, but the accomplishment for me was that I jumped. Yes, dude, I'm not sure if anybody's ever done a ropes course, but it's a challenge, it's a challenge and a half and it's definitely it's so mental. It's incredible how mental it is. I mean, it's certainly a physical challenge too. It just really, when you're thinking about it the right way, a ropes course is so powerful in terms of representing everyday challenges in a visceral, visceral way, it really facilitates an incredible amount of presence. Yes, dwight. So Dwight's saying, basically, he's at this ropes course, he has a goal, he wants to achieve it, he wants to beat the feature, whatever the feature is at the course. Sometimes it's like a jump, or sometimes you're walking, balancing on a balance beam, things like that. So he has the goal to beat the feature. But in this case he did not completely beat the feature, but he attempted and he even jumped, which is one of the scariest aspects of the thing. And what he did do during his session there was he learned to be in relationship in a healthy way, without shame, with the gap, the gap between where he is in the goal. So basically, oh, it's so, super Mario. Actually he took the jump, he fell into the gap literally and instead of processing it as like shameful failure, he's in a space now where he's like okay, cool, this is where I'm at and what's next? That's useful. That keeps you in motion.
Speaker 1:Diz, I'm curious if you have any other questions about Taoism For everybody else in the chat. I want to say something about Taoism just to clarify it a little bit and make it a bit more distinct. I just gave you the overall. This is the category it fits in, but there's this awesome painting and it's called the Vinegar Tasters, and the Vinegar Tasters does a great job of setting Taoism apart from the other traditions, which is, you have three people and they're each the head of a different tradition. One of them is Confucianism, the other one is Buddhism and the other one is Taoism. And they're each sipping, they're taking a spoonful of vinegar out of a bowl and this is like a, it's a well, it's almost like a sketch, it's a painting, right. So they each take a sip and the way they react to the vinegar is supposed to be emblematic of the philosophy.
Speaker 1:So for Confucianism or Confucianism I'm not exactly sure how to pronounce that the approach through that philosophy is very rules-based and structured-based, and so there's a lot of judgment towards the Vinegar, which is to say it's it is sharp and intense, a flavor, right, and so that that person's face, when he tastes the vinegar, scrunches up and he's kind of like mmm, bracing right. And then for the Buddhist, they sip it, and for them, again, being in the body and suffering in general, et cetera, life is suffering, blah, blah, blah. So they're tasting it, mmm, again intense, intense feeling. Well, in the Taoist tradition, the idea is that life is just life and that the vinegar is just vinegar, and that when we sort of allow the experience, then we don't and we don't brace ourselves, we're not like mmm about it, we can just experience it as it is, and so the the Taoist is tasting the vinegar and they're just kind of like smiling, right, and the idea there that just it shows everybody's sort of relationship in terms of the greater philosophy. So I guess Taoism's a lot about allowing and being with the flow, with the force. You know, if you will, a little bit from like Star Wars there.
Speaker 1:Hello, hello, all right guys. Well, thank you all for tuning in, dwight and anyone else who's here. If you haven't seen the podcast yet or you're not subscribed to my YouTube channel, I'd really appreciate it. If you go check it out, I think you might like it. My YouTube channel is NoahTalon44. The podcast is called God Mode a player's guide to life. Let's do a little test real quick. If I go incognito mode and I type in God Mode a player's guide to life, boom, it exists, it's here, awesome. So yeah, if you type in GodModaPlayer's Guide to Life, it will come up. You can see. Episode one is here. There's the trailer, but yes, it's at. The YouTube channel is NoahTalon44. You can go check it out. Please subscribe so you can get updates. Obviously, the people on Instagram are already following me on Instagram. If you're on Twitch, my Instagram is NoahTalon. You can get a bunch of the short form content on Instagram that way.
Speaker 1:But yeah, I'm getting into this habit of not talking about things that I haven't done yet, so I'm not even going to talk about the thing I haven't done yet. I'm going to do it and then I'll talk about it once it's done. But there's yeah, it's tough, it's tough, yeah. So there it is. We're just going to leave it at that. It's a bit of a cliffhanger, it's a mystery. So I guess you'll just have to stay tuned to see. When I flip from oh, I'm not talking about this thing too, I'm talking about this thing. And then, voila, big reveal, somewhere in the creator verse, I'm feeling like, oh, I just did a cool thing, I just created a hook, I hooked my audience. They're going to be waiting for this big reveal. We'll have to see. So, man, that was a great goffecito guys Today.
Speaker 1:Oh, let's see, right here, yadda says Leap of Faith is so incredible. The breakthroughs you can have are endless. Dude. As a matter of fact, if you guys go to my second episode of the podcast, behind me as I sit on the bed doing the podcast episode is the photograph of me doing the Leap of Faith. So that's a fun fact for anybody who's curious and interested. I'm watching my little clip of it on my Instagram right now, and right now it's really focused on Michelle. If we can jump it over, then there it is. So the second it jumps over you can see me right there in the background holding onto the Leap of Faith. So that's pretty funny. I love that it's actually front and center.
Speaker 1:Thank you so much for tuning in today, guys. Very nice chatting with everybody. I hope you guys have a great week. I hope that some of these ideas you all think about throughout the week, specifically this Super Mario Effect Next week. We'll be back again on Monday with another Gaffsito with Noah and maybe you guys can tell me how it went and how the Super Mario Effect principle applied throughout the week.
Speaker 1:Dis, if you discover anything else about Taoism for anybody else interested in Taoism, one of my favorite books on it is Taoism Made Easy. Let me see if I can get you guys the author for that. Oh no, it's called the Tao, the Tao Made Easy. The book is by Alan Cohen. And then another fun book about the Tao is the Tao of Poo, and this is the teaching of the Tao through Winnie the Pooh as a sort of metaphor. Anyway, thank you guys so much for tuning in. This has been another session of Gaffsito with Noah. I'm going to wave at our new viewers here on Instagram. Love you guys. Thank you so much and I hope you guys have a great week. Hasta luego.
