The Hustle and the Machine
A more refined yin and yang between “working hard and working smart,” is “the hustle and the machine.” Working hard and working smart is a false paradox, because you always need to work hard smart. The difference in “the hustle and the machine,” is an acknowledgement that no matter how much you hustle, there are not enough hours in the day. That no matter how...

Time in the office vs NIHITO
Matt Blumberg had some good follow up on Fred’s blog on the topic of “what a CEO does.” I’ve found the bulk of the thread to be helpful but disagree on one point Matt makes: NIHITO (Nothing interesting happens in the office) It could be that Matt is talking about CEOs and my role is different from that, but I’ve been struck recently but how important being in front of...

The Now, the Next, and Imperfection
The acceptance of imperfection is essential to working in an operational business. In any given task there are always kluges needed or fixes. If everything runs perfectly, it probably means that you’re not in a growth business, and if you are, it means you’re not pushing into “the new” quickly enough.
