On today’s show I share a little bit about the next product and training area I’m going to be focusing on. It’s still in the very early stages, and so I share the very rough, behind-the-scenes
Here are a bunch of statements:
* Follow your passion is bad advice
* Talent is overrated
* Find the sweet spot where passion, skill, and opportunity meet.
* Deep work + time devoted to focus = quality
* There is no guarantee of financial success or fame
* You have to show up every day for 2-4 years
* Success for a product isn’t in shipping, it’s in solving problems
* The joy is in the journey
If all of these are true, and they are not mutually exclusive, then how do we balance them?
How do we get from where we are now to where we want to be, while navigate a million seemingly competing ideas and opportunities?
