Most business failures aren't caused by bad ideas, they're caused by poor execution systems. Smart thinking gets you to the starting line. Systematic thinking gets you across the finish line. I've witnessed this truth across two decades in institutional finance: The graveyard

Charlie Kirk was shot and killed today in Utah at a university that he was going to be speaking at. I don't care what side of the isle you're on, what your political or religious beliefs are, how you felt about the things he believed, said, stood for, NO ONE deserves to be killed

An amazing honor and privilege to not only have work I co-authored published by the @BrettonWoodsCom, but to have had the honor of co-authoring with the esteemed @cartek99 who is one of the brightest, humblest, down to earth, good hearted men I know.

I see a lot of Investors in the VC ecosystem investing in "tech" companies where none of the valuable tech is proprietary. You do realize that you're investing in nothing right? #investing #tech #venturecapital #venturebacked #angelinvesting #angelinvestors #vcfunding #vc

VCs talking about portfolio construction is laughable. With a 94% failure rate, it's is clear that the issue isn't in portfolio construction, but the steps taken (and missed) when each company was invested in to begin with smh 🤦🏿‍♂️. Can't diversify away risk when you are the risk!

Your job as CEO of a startup is to realize great products lose often to better brand, marketing, storytelling and distribution.

It amazese that most Venture Capital investors "analyze", yet miss everything that really matters. It's almost comical how they routinely miss the forest through the trees! #VentureCapital #venturebacked #dobetterdiligence

Embracing entrepreneurship? Prepare to confront your personal flaws. Growing your profits means growing personally. Ask yourself, 'What's inhibiting growth?' and most likely it's the person in the mirror. Remember to check yourself before you wreck yourself. 💪👊

Pre-seed founders share common ground no matter the industry. Their top priorities are hiring the right talent, securing their first customers, and acquiring funding to propel their startup forward.

Success requires more than a part-time effort. You have to be fully immersed, even if it seems delusional. Keep believing when others doubt you, and accomplish what others thought was impossible.
