Fundamental Equation of Business

Value = Benefits – Price

1) Make price lower
2) Make benefits bigger

Sweet Tides

Sharp turn, my mind is a blur
Slow passage through the air
Looking back on the days
All over your mind, just wanna be free

Highly Effective Habits

A habit is the intersection of knowledge, skill, and desire.

Knowledge is the theoretical component, the “what” to do and “why” to do it.

Skill is the practical side of “how” to do it. 

Desire is the motivational side, the “want” to do it.

Tale of Two Cities

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to Heaven, we were all going direct the other way…
