There’s a concept in aviation called the 1-in-60 Rule.

I originally learned about it from my friend @Codie_Sanchez and was immediately drawn to the idea.

It says that a 1 degree error in heading will cause a plane to miss its target by 1 mile for every 60 miles flown.

It is designed to benefit entrepreneurs & businesses, not employees.

Asset owners, not renters.

Investors, not consumers.

It rewards risk. Learn how it works and adjust your strategy w/ the above in mind.
