Our readingThe small quality moments come from wasting time: if you are not playing or messing around, you won't come to them.

Their wordsI think it's it's just about wasting time I guess I I would describe it I can stay on task I have these things that are really important and I have to get them done because you know the company has goals and like all these things are moving things forward, but if you're not playing or you're not like messing around, you won't come to those moments.
