Most people think growth is about adding. I think it’s about subtracting.

If I lost my network, my capital, and my current projects tomorrow, I wouldn’t be panicked. I’d be focused.
Why? Because most SMEs aren't held back by a lack of opportunity. They are held back by the weight of their own complexity.

We over-complicate our offers. We over-hire to fix broken processes. We try to "compete" instead of "position."
If I were starting from zero today, I would move much slower in the beginning to move much faster at the end. I’d build a business that is a "category of one" rather than another name in a crowded inbox.

The 3 pillars of the restart:
1⃣Niche over Network: Solve one expensive problem for one specific person.
2⃣Gap over Feature: Don’t be better. Be the only logical choice.
3⃣Systems over People: Build the machine before you hire the operators.

You don’t need to lose everything to start making these moves. You just need the discipline to stop doing what isn't scaling.

If you had to wipe the slate clean today, what’s the first thing you’d stop doing?
