Hours are stupid and clients don’t care about them
by
Measuring time is literally the easiest way to assess someone’s dedication and productivity, but it’s also very unreliable. – Rest Your clients don’t care if you put in 8 hours. They want value out of you. They want the value you provide. Selling them hours is a lame way of making pricing easier. It saves

Don’t let little things derail you
by
What do you let break your focus? How much does that thing really matter in the grand scheme of things? Today I’m going to talk about a few weeks ago running where I let something with my watch affect my mindset. It almost stopped me cold in my tracks, and it really was nothing.

Your Word is all You Have
by
While listening to Game of Thrones I got to thinking about your word. Not the words you use, and at the same time all about the words you use. All you have is your word. It’s your reputation. When you tell a client you’ll finish a project, you need to finish it. If you can’t
