Prioritize and Execute

We use the term ‘Prioritize and Execute’ at the shop all the time. It’s from Jocko’s Laws of Combat. Find the priority and execute. Once complete, there’s a new priority. Then you handle that.

What's it going to take?

I read the quote ‘What’s it going to take?’ in the book Market Outrageously. It was talking about actually looking deep at a goal and trying to get to the bottom of what it would take to accomplish. Even seemingly impossible goals are worth trying to break down. In my life and business, I have goals that are overwhelmi
