Business of Machining - Episode 99

Last podcast episode of the year! BUT how important is the calendar year anyway when you’re constantly trying to achieve your goals? “I’m already living in 2019” - Saunders 2018 THEME OF THE YEAR: STRESS (and how to cope) Saunders went through some of the older episodes, and apparently the Johns talked about this a lot. “I’m okay stressing about the future. I’m not okay stressing about the present” - Saunders GRIMSMO AGREES “If you’re stressing about the present, it means you’re doing something wrong or you need to do something” - Grimsmo Are you ever satisfied when you’re committed to continual growth? Saunders debates between a vertical spindle or a CMM, but there’s always another thing that will make your business more effective. Just remember that the things you really really wanted last year have now become a part of the regular process flow.    2018 Quote of the Year! (from a previous episode that Saunders dug up) “Did we have fun? If not, we die” - Grimsmo Should work be fun? Thanks Eleanor, but fun sure makes it easier! “There is something to be said for diving into your work, but loving your work makes it that much easier” - Grimsmo Check out the book Saunders mentions! Warren Buffett’s bio Snowball Shifting Pens to Priority at the Grimsmo Shop Knives have been a priority for a long time, Grimsmo struggles with taking the time he needs to get pens MOVING! At least there’s no doubt that the pen needs to be a staple product. SO, time to get Swissish... Saunders: “Dude, you NEED a Swiss Lathe!” Grimsmo needs a Swiss Lathe for pen parts. THE E-MYTH REVISITED (Revisited by Grimsmo, that is) Going 100 PERCENT into the new year! Episode 100 will come out then. For now, what’s your legacy?
