For the final lesson in the series I saved my favorite; one I talk about often. If you look closely, everyone’s playing checkers while pretending to play chess. They talk about “long-term thinking” but really mean next quarter’s numbers. I used to be that person, head buried in daily operations, thinking I was crushing it. I was not. Nor are you if this describes you. Tomorrow is important but having the discipline to look 5, 10, even 15 years out is transformative. Not the safe, incremental stuff. I’m talking about the big, scary changes that make people uncomfortable. Sort
Something we all struggle with – keeping friendships alive while chasing the business dream. I’ve watched too many rock-solid friendships fade into LinkedIn connections, not because of drama or falling out, but because I got caught up in the “I’m too busy” trap. It sucks and, when I look back, I don’t love it. Here’s the thing about building a business – it’s all-consuming. You’re grinding, thinking you’ll catch up with friends “when things calm down.” Spoiler alert: things never calm down. I looked up one day with a problem and realized, I had no one to call. Not
After building a lot of tech I realized something – we’re all obsessed with the wrong thing. Early in my career, I was that person staying up late tweaking UI elements, convinced that building the perfect product was the key to everything. Nope. Here’s what actually matters: recognize that your value is not in the product but in the clarity of thinking deployed to deliver the product. These are different things. Period. When we see projects fail, we all know the product wasn’t the problem. The thinking was. We’d been so caught up in building the “perfect” thing that
Something that keeps hitting me after a few decades in tech – we’re really good at fooling ourselves. The industry moves so fast, acronyms arise out of nowhere, AI became a real thing finally, blockchain is still something no one really understands, and whatever new thing dropped this morning, that is also moving quickly. All of this movement often allows us to get caught up in our own hype. And that’s where things get dangerous. Here’s what I keep seeing: smart people (yes, myself included) get trapped in this echo chamber of our own expertise. We start thinking we’ve
