I’ve learned that the single biggest reason for failure is never starting.
Going into the last week of HS regular season getting work in with @RonnyBBG ⚾️🚀
Good league win today. 2-4, R, RBI, SB today. Someone said bunts are cool ⚾️💨
I believe in the next 3-5 years more companies will be ran with 20% of their current team (including execs) and supplemented by AI. That means 80% of companies’ current workforce will be eliminated. The 80% will then start other small companies to compete
This also applies to building a startup 🙏🏾

Ready to kick off a very strong week of execution & delivery
A certain ... malaise has slipped into SaaS. A dourness, a resignation that nobody is buying anymore, that maybe SaaS is sort of "over". I get it: - public SaaS companies' average growth has slowed to < 20% - buyers are still asking for reductions at renewals - many buyers…

Watching the Teofimo fight and working on this product roadmap
You have to be an optimist about your own product, your own startup, and yourself. That's why when you pitch -- whether to investors, to prospective employees, or partners, it's important to talk about what might happen, not what you are doing today. There's a whole style to…
No is rarely final in pitching companies.. No means not right now. There will come a time when your prospect needs their current solution to be easier, simpler, cheaper, or more efficient… Just find that time for them 😁

Accept criticism, but never accept disrespect.
More high-performers will continue to view solopreneurship as a viable alternative to traditional work. Better flexibility, higher income potential, 100% ownership, & the chance to be present for their family. We're just getting started.
