Cold showers in the morning. They're amazing.
My alertness has increased, and even though it's winter, I feel warmer afterwards.

1/ Be more ambitious with your hiring.
Particularly at the beginning - but also throughout your companyโs growth - your goal should not just be to add a but in the seat or a soldier to the army.
Hands up who's ever thought of comparing Growth and more "traditional" Marketing to the dating scene?
Turns out @2bsudip has. He's found quite a nifty analogy for it and has written about it. Fun read.

THE 7 BIGGEST RISKS TO YOUR DREAMS:
1. Worrying what others think
2. Not taking a risk
3. People that have settled
4. Believing you donโt deserve
them
5. Being patient
6. Thinking itโs too late or youโre
too old
7. Procrastinating
Take a chance or lose the chance.
I've been trying to get in touch with this one particular startup Founder as a potential client for months now. Finally got hold of him on the phone today.
And...I blew it. Had a mind blank part-way through the call.

Finding that the term "growth hacking" is quite polarising when I talk to people in the tech #startup world in Australia. People either love it or hate/loathe it.
Keen to hear people's thoughts! Do you love or hate? Why?

@batkomichael People are either listening to the general narrative and apply it to themselves or they'd make one up and sell it to themselves and then they'd live in it.
Either way, doing this will limit what you can do, because when telling these stories, the only person listening is you.
We should celebrate founders' partners more.
When they come home and say:
"I want to risk everything we have, work long hours under constant stress, and leave you to pick up the pieces at home. All to chase a dream."
And their partner says "let's do it"
Pretty extraordinary
As a leader in your company, hire people that are better than you. Let go of the ego, be open to challenge and give yourself space and opportunity to innovate, get creative and focus on the company's success.

The only thing more powerful than having everyone in a room working on a problem is having the best people anywhere in the world working on that same problem. Virtual teams allow you to pick the best talent - wherever they may be. #consultingconvos
