Don't accept the excuse of complexity. A lot of people will tell you, this is too challenging, this is too complicated, yeah well I know other people simplify but that's not for me, this is a complicated business. They're wrong. You can change the world in 140 characters.

I walk into a company office and I can tell often whether I'm gonna invest, as soon as I walk in.

The office environment that people live in and work in, dictates your culture and how people make decisions.

The office environment that people work in everyday dictates the culture that you are going to be in.

You really need to spend a lot of your time focussing people.

Most people, most great people even are ammunition. But what you need in your company are barrels. You can only shoot through the number of unique barrels you have, so that's how the velocity of your company improves... is by adding barrels, and then you stock them with ammunition and then you can do a lot.

You kinda want to look for the anomalies. You don't actually want to look for the expected behaviour.
