The reason you need a team

I have two cats. And I keep a phone to call a vet in case of emergency. Many people do this too. ​ I have the phone of an electrician, a plumber, a dentist, a doctor… to call in case of emergency.

Don’t tell me that money is not important. Or you don’t care. Just stop working and see what happens… ​ Having mentors and advisors, a list of trusted and knowledgeable contacts, standing by is what makes the difference between successful people and people that struggle or make little or no progress. ​ Or do you think that Elon knows about everything?

And you know what… They repeat in the next project… Even if it is evident that the clause will generate issues. Too much grey. Sometimes this grey has advantages within a group of reasonable and experienced people. But unfortunately, common sense is uncommon. I explained the issue. Everybody nodded. And of course… the clause remained…...
I love going to local markets. I tried one this weekend. All vendors shouting: “Try this.” “Taste that.” “Best cheese in town.” “Organic honey.” Everyone fighting for your attention. It’s nice. It feels human. You try things. You buy things. You feel good helping local producers. I love that. But price is sometimes an issue. It’s not cheap. And it can’t be cheap.
