@uibreakfast @pree @klaviyo Brilliant, where can I find it?

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

The bigger you get, the slower you get.

Adding people and processes hinders your ability to turn on a dime.

This is a challenge for impatient founders who want everything done right away (me).

If you struggle with this too, ask yourself:

Is faster always better?

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

@gregoryjhickman every setback is a setup

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

If you want to grow, embrace complexity.

Growth means more variables to consider, more things that could go wrong, more pieces to fit together.

It's moving from checkers to chess.

Resisting this is a death sentence.

Embracing it is the learning opportunity of a lifetime.

@gregoryjhickman What

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

Case in point, in my business:

90 days ago: top of funnel lead cost

60 days ago: appointment setter team

30 days ago: closing team

today: appointment setter team (again)

30 days from now (projected): documentation of client case studies (we need to get better at capturing)

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

Where's your bottleneck?

Easy questions to answer when you're small (it's usually marketing and lead generation sub $1mil).

Way harder to identify as your business grows and things get more complicated.

But it's THE most important question for any Founder/CEO to ask.

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

The bigger you get, the harder it is to identify the bottleneck.

And the better you get at addressing bottlenecks, the faster they move around.

Consistency in the LEAD indicator creates consistency in the LAG indicator

Marketing (lead) to revenue (lag)

Exercise (lead) to physical fitness (lag)

Nutrition (lead) to overall health (lag)

Attention (lead) to strong relationships (lag)

Etc

@kevincwhelan Well said

[Ahmad Munawar @aamunawar]

You have the power to talk yourself in to or out of just about anything.

Human beings are masters of rationalization.

Therefore, spend more time emotionally and energetically aligning yourself with what you want.

The right logic will follow without much effort.
