Bet on yourself. Hiring your first employee? Bet on yourself. There is one thing I have learnt about big decisions. It’s always simpler than you think. Before you change your company and country, it feels scary, and risky. After you do, you wonder why you waited so long. Before you start your...
“Twenty years ago, my father built a thriving business with a handshake and a business card” “Sorry mate. Welcome to the Trust Recession Era”. In your father’s era, trust was institutional. People believed in companies, credentials, and corporate polish. Now, people don’t believe TV, the newspaper, the media, the government… Almost nothing.
