12d ago53:57

53:57

When you look back over the year, did you accomplish all you set out to do? Most likely, no. There were twists and turns you didn't anticipate and we always overestimate what is doable in a short period of time.

The speed of the success of your business (and whether it gets there at all) is made up a series of decisions of things you are "willing" and "unwilling" to do or not do.
