In fact, this book, I think Bill Gates is the most recent person to write the foreword of the book.
It was launched in the 70s and they've republished it and now it's a business cult classic.
The idea here is exactly what you're describing, which is you keep things very simple, you practice a lot, and you don't criticize yourself, and you don't think too hard about what will do well.
The criticism, I mean, you have talked about this a lot in private.
We both were maniacally driven to fix and to achieve financial success,
And a lot of times that doesn't come from a positive place.
Yeah.
The way that I see it a lot of times is basically I build businesses because I feel like I have, I'm not good enough.
And also I try to fix myself because you have to fix your personality in order to build a great company.
Mine is not that I don't think I'm good enough.

One of my favorite movies is a movie called Tombstone.
It's like one of my favorite things.
And I watched it when I was a kid over and over again.
And there's like a line where Doc, Holiday, and White Earp are legitimately true friends.
And Wyatt Earp is about to go and have a duel, like a life and death duel.
He's going to meet this guy named Johnny Ringo.
And he's like, we both have guns.
One of us is going to survive and the other person is going to die.
This is about to happen to me.
