00:00 My 2020 motto is probably no mottos,
00:04 just because I always have so much of a plan
00:07 when I start the year.
00:08 And you can get kind of bogged down
00:10 in what you think the year is supposed to be like,
00:12 as opposed to just letting some things happen.
00:15 So I think this year is probably just going with the flow
00:18 a little bit more.
00:18 (upbeat music)
