102: Paul Jarvis - Staying Small

Topics include:

• Why "success" shouldn't mean the same thing to everyone
• How to stay small without doing all the work you don't want to do yourself
• Why it's important to define what "enough" is for your business instead of always feeling the need to do better than you did last year
• Questions to ask yourself to figure out what "success" would be for you
• How knowing your "enough" can help you build better products for the people you want to serve
• Why you should ignore the people who don't like what you're doing and double down on the people who love it
