Fidelity investor
WRITER AND FORMER DOTCOM BUSINESSMAN, GODIN IS SAYING THAT TALK IS CHEAP, BUT IN A NICER WAY. YES, IDEAS ARE A DIME A DOZEN, BUT THE REAL MEAT ON THOSE BONES COMES FROM TRYING TO REALIZE THEM. IT IS ONLY THEN THAT THE PROBLEMS SHOW UP AND THE REAL WORK OF RESOLVING THEM STARTS.
We have always taken great comfort from the fact that good business should be like a well-designed ship. The market is its ocean, with all the currents, tides and swells and occasionally the Bermuda triangles. A well designed ship will have everything on board fastened and functioning to the best of its ability.
