Executional skills are impossible to find.
Great people have them, their ability to set a goal and achieve them consistently over and over again.
And that comes from being a great salesperson, learning that way.
I like to see people come up through sales because they understand how hard it is at the beginning of the month to be zero and then have to hit the goal every month.
I did that for my whole life, still do.
But just because you know how a business is operated and it's transparent about it,
I bet you less than one out of 10 people can do the same thing.
A hundred percent.
He just was really difficult to work with.
It doesn't mean he wasn't a genius.
He was, he also taught me about the concept of signal to noise ratio, which I've really adopted.
Um, he, uh, would argue that you need to get three things done every day, whatever they are, three to five.
Three to five things you have to get done every day, and that's the signal.
The noise is all the stuff that comes at you that stops you from getting the three to five things done.
And so you have to identify the three things, and then you have to fight off all of the noise coming at you to stay within 70-30 ratio.
You've got to block out 70% of the noise so that 30% is getting the three things done.
Now, because you're blocking out noise, you're perceived as an asshole.
You're stopping people in mid-sentence saying, I'm not interested, not interested.
Just not wasting time is what he was about.
He was blunt.
