Growth is what separates the winners from the losers.
Growth is not a mystery, it is mechanical. What can you do + how quickly can you do it? What’s the productivity, ramp, conversion? You can break it down and improve upon it over time.
The best question is not how quickly did we grow but how quickly could we grow? If you don’t know this, you haven’t thought it through.
Victory = breaking the enemy’s will to fight. In software, this is hiring the loser’s people because they no longer want to be there. Loser loses strength whilst winner gains that strength.
Past glories are poor feeding. — Asimov
