The Hard Thing about Hard Things by Ben Horowitz
If I had one motto to live by …
My former CRO who is Dutch would always tell us “Next Game” when we lamented anything – losing a deal, prospects gone dark, not enough pipeline to hit our numbers etc. It isn’t about what you lost but about what’s next, think ahead.
Fun fact:
I did a few consulting gigs as an elections official in Latin America back in my international development days. Search and Mexican elections have one thing in common – a lot of twists and turns!
Favorite interview question for clients:
Tell me something that happened here that wouldn’t happen anywhere else.
