Risk & Reward / by Alexander Lyadov

The most dangerous thing in business is choosing average risk. Why? "All profit comes from taking risks" (Peter Drucker). The mediocre challenge won't produce a champion. Darwinian selection only leaves those in the final who are willing to go all-in.

So why do some entrepreneurs play it halfway? It's simple - their back is exposed. This creates self-doubt. The subconscious tries to protect, but leads one to failure. There are many examples of such vulnerability:

  • A weak team that requires constant help and supervision,

  • Lack of a predictable flow of incoming leads,

  • Chronic shareholder conflict,

  • An outdated business model,

  • A shortage of cash reserves,

  • Founder's paralysis.

Do you want your business to grow faster and earn more? First, fix the vulnerability.

Sincerely yours,

-Alexander
