    Your video where u said dont ask wealthy people how they became rich but rather how they think and process information coz that is what matters!

    It's not a mistake to make a mistake, but it's a mistake to repeat it, and a severe one to never learn from the first time you made it. As an entrepreneur, you have go to have the right blend of self-confidence and humility- the former to trust your hunches and eureka moments, and the latter to accept when you've gone wrong and learn from it. Great topic, Patrick.

      Hey Brad, glad you commented this on here. You've pointed out a sad truth- unfortunately ethics often takes a back seat in business decisions, today. The best I'd recommend you to do is continue to believe in your righteous principles and have faith that the Divine shall guide you in turn. Don't ever give up your morals for the sake of business success- any amount of material wealth is trivial in contrast to one's duty to be righteous. However,(correct me if I'm wrong) I sense a slight misconception in your understanding of the Lean Concept. Having a lean approach doesn't necessarily make you more likely to fail. The most popular Lean Methodology, preached by Eric Reiss, is centered on creating an MVP- minimal (the product has enough features to make it solve at least one core problem the consumer may have) viable (consumers are willing to pay you pay you for the service it offers them) product (it is a fully functioning product). The contrary would be a 'Waterfall Approach' often used in more established organizations. The waterfall approach is focused on heavier documentation, testing and often aims to build the 'best' possible product. The reason why the lean methodology is often favored in startups is because startups typically don't have the time or resources to carry out heavier documentation, longer planning, etc. and the fact that building the 'best' product is often an idealistic over-ambitious goal. I'd be glad to perhaps get some more clarity on the nature of your business here. You can always reach out to me on my channel.

    #10 is so true! I like my employees, but I dislike it when they give me advice because they are typically driven by emotion and no logic. A lot of people like to feel "important" and like to be in control so it tends to lead to a disaster. Sometimes you may have a gem of a person offer solid advice, but usually, it's not.

    Can't agree with #10. Credibility is obviously important but I would not want to make people feel like they can not speak out. Sometimes the people on the bottom can see almost as much as the people on the top. The fuzzy ideas usually come from people in the middle who are just kissing backsides or those too blind to see your vision because they their vision is through a tunnel.

  • @georgesmith9178
    @georgesmith9178 5 лет назад

    Thanks for the video Patrick. There is a lot of useful information. However, I could not give you the thumbs-up because you have some very heavy biases. Some examples:
    #1.
    "... you shouldn’t be taking advice from somebody that’s never made more than $45,000 a year. "
    "... There are a lot of consultants asking for $20,000 to identify and fix your problems for you."
    Heavy bias here - choosing a particular lifestyle does not mean you are not an expert at something. By the way, I know many CEOs who consult on the side. And, if you are such a great CEO, why are you looking to hire consultants to tell you what the problems are? Why do you need a 2nd board to back you up? Aren’t they consulting you, in their own way, perhaps for free? Maybe it is the 20K price tag consultants are putting on their services that’s bothering you, Patrick :)
    #2.
    "Running a business is not easy. Business as a completely different ballgame and you have to understand who to take advice from and who not to take advice from based on where they’re at"
    Toyota empowered its production line workers to make decisions and quality went through the roof, customer satisfaction improved, sales also improved (LEAN and Sig Sigma principles). Isn’t that taking advice from someone who makes less than 45K per year? In fact, many CEOs are so removed from from everyday problems the business is facing that they are completely out of touch with customer experience. There numerous and articles on this but Simon Sinek described it best in hist TED talks.
    #3.
    "Avoid hiring resume builders"
    Everyone is a resume builder, whether they do unconsciously, semi-actively, or completely strategically. Actually the last ones are the people who work the hardest - they strive for great results and a rewarding career. One of your T-shirts reads "I love capitalism". Well, that is what capitalism leads to, Patrick - people want more: more money, bigger houses, faster cars, beautiful girlfriends wearing expensive clothes or rich boyfriends driving expensive cars, etc. They are looking at all of this and they say "Man, I got go go up, and I can't do it here" With these types of models, how do you expect support people to be loyal? . Unless, you earned their trust first - had their back during a recession or a general business decline, helped them move up in their career, got through a rough patch. And the bigger the organization gets, the harder it becomes for CEOs to earn people's trust. They tend to rely on culture to do it for them and completely forget they once did this very important job themselves.
    Sorry, I went so deep on the negative. There is a lot of good stuff in your videos but there are also a lot of holes. I pointed just a few of them. Hope you will take this positively.

    The pendulum effect - when you take the middle ground you have to dodge the fast ball. However when well informed you can see where it is coming from and you can step out of the way- and let the extremists on either side waste their energy amplifying the swing...
    I believe in Unemployment benefit- As a business do you want to employ someone with poor work ethics? Do you want the person you don't want in your business so desperate for income they resort to breaking the law because 'they just don't get it' w.r.t. work ethic? In Data don't ignore 'the outliers'.

    @lifetimedoji 5 лет назад

    I love what you do, Pat, but your generalizations regarding consultants are somewhat off base. To say that if a consultant was really any good they'd go out and build a successful company, is assuming that's what they want to do. For those who have been down that road it ties you to an office and a concrete set of responsibilities. Been there, done that. It's a massive commitment if you do it right. Consultants are free to work when they want, where they want, and to choose the situations they're willing to get involved with. There's also a satisfaction in helping someone like you solve a problem you want to get rid of. I don't have all the answers, same as you, but maybe I've learned something in my travels that can help you to get further and do better. If I can help you salvage a great worker who is thinking of leaving and they generate $1 million for you, or $10 million, you'll open your wallet and pay me a big number because your problem is gone. Choosing a consultant is tough because there are gazillions of people claiming the title. Some of the best don't have pedigrees with big companies. You can hire someone who came out of Deloitte or McKinsey and probably do okay, but the guy who ran a tiny business for 20 years and walked away might be the best fit for what you need. One more thing. Based on the quality of information you give in this channel I'd say you're 20X the CEO I was. That said, I don't need to be as good as you to be of value. I only have to help you solve a problem - likely a problem with people - that's keeping you up at night. Blessings to you Pat, I'm a big fan of what you're building here.
