What if everyone chose the simple life? Just hunting, fishing, resting. Sounds peaceful... until you realize we’d probably die at 35 from a simple infection, because no one invented penicillin.
To all the ones researching, building, and creating, thank you.

You can’t expect A-level output from someone who isn’t — or doesn’t want to be — an A-player.
Effort is non-negotiable. But hiring wrong is on you.
A-players work with A-players. Not for the money. Not for you.
For the challenge. For the craft.

“It’s better to have 100 people who love you than a million who like you.” – Brian CEO of Airbnb.

How do you retain customers?
By always delivering more than expected!
It could be a new idea, an extra screen, a more detailed design.
Show who you are, what your brand is about in terms of excellence.
That’s how you build lasting relationships.
