You negotiated a great deal.

Now comes the part nobody prepared you for.

Everyone sees the decision

Nobody sees what it costs to make.

The most productive thing I did this summer was slow down

Inorganic growth will accelerate whatever is already true about your business.

Make sure you know what that is.

Everyone knows what the business needs.

Few really know how to get there.

You invested in everything but yourself.

The business is keeping score.
