“The comfort zone is a region where great dreams go to get murdered, buried and forgotten.”
― The Book of Maxims, Poems and Anecdotes
― The Book of Maxims, Poems and Anecdotes
“Without seeking truth it is unlikely you will find success. The truth very well might set you free, but it’s not always fun. People say they want the truth, but more accurately, they want the truth that is easy to hear. They don’t want the painful truths that don’t support our decisions or force us to accept we were wrong about something. But without truth, you will never be able to course-correct. Putting the company first and your bruised feelings second is an important step in saving your start-up from failure.”
