0:00Lazy people don't know how to start. Weak people don't know how to finish. Successful people don't know how to stop. People demand success but refuse to work weekends. People want opportunity but won't talk to strangers. People claim ambition but sleep in every day. We are the result of our actions, not our aspirations. I think once you've actually learned how to try, really try one thing for an extended period of time every single day and take all of your discretionary effort and your money and your time and your resources and put it towards just doing that thing.

0:43Number one, you realize how few things you can really do well because of the amount of time that it takes.

And so, I can say with a lot of confidence that these are the stages as headcount increases that you need to get through. And I broke each of these down by eight different functions of the business. What the constraint feels like, like what are the symptoms of it when you're going through it, and then what steps we actually took to graduate. And we've done this across software, physical products, uh, service businesses, brickandmortar, all of this.
