Strategy isn't the hardest part of starting a business. The hardest part is the moment you decide your own opinion of yourself outranks everyone else's. π₯

The team you build is the business you build. So tell me, if your team could only solve one bottleneck for you this quarter, what would it be?

*A players* want to work with other *A players*. If your team keeps underperforming, take a hard look at the standard at the top. π₯

Hiring lesson I learned the expensive way: someone can interview perfect, look great on paper, have all the credentialsβ¦ and still be wrong for the job. Now I trust the energy in the room as much as the resume.π₯

Founders, be honest. Are you hiring because you need help, or because you're avoiding the part of the work that scares you? π

One of the best interview questions you can ask: "Tell me about a time you disagreed with a boss." π³ Their answer tells you more in 90 seconds than the whole resume does.π₯

Hire for character first. Skills are teachable. A bad attitude on a Tuesday will cost you more than a slow learner ever will. π―

When I started, I was running my whole business from my kitchen table. Drowning in it. Scared to hire help. I hired the wrong people at first, wasted money, cried more than once. Then I got better at it. So will you. πͺ

What's one thing you're still doing in your business that you KNOW you should hand off? Be brave. Say it out loud. π

The most expensive hire is the wrong person you keep too long because you don't want to feel like the bad guy. Slow firings cost more than any salary line.π―

End of May check-in: one promise you made to yourself back in January. Still on? Off-track? No judgment. Just noticing is how the second half gets better. β¨

Most plans fail because they were built for someone else's life. If yours isn't fitting, rewrite it. Your calendar should look like YOURS. πΌ

My best ideas have never arrived in a "brainstorm." They show up in the shower. On a walk. While washing a single fork. Your brain needs space to actually meet you.

If your to-do list has been the same for 6 months, it's not a to-do list anymore. It's a guilt list. Delete it. Start fresh. ποΈ

Tell me one tiny thing that made you proud this week. Not the big win. The little honest one. I'll start: I took a nap without guilt. π΄

Not selling your good work has a cost. The people who need you never find you. Done with care, selling is a form of service. π

I once spent three weeks stuck on an email that would've taken 8 minutes to send. Eight minutes of work. Three weeks of overthinking. Guess which one I'm trying to quit. π€¦ββοΈ
