Prioritize the Potent Over the Busy

Successful growth often hinges on establishing a strong brand that engenders trust within the community, allowing for focused efforts on proprietary deal flow instead of traditional measures of success like investment skill or cash. Identifying and pursuing that singular, impactful goal can streamline all other tasks, making them less significant. This approach challenges human tendencies towards busyness and opportunism and calls for a deliberate focus on fewer, more meaningful pursuits that drive real progress.
