Default Where the head goes, the body follows.

My 8th grade wrestling coach.

BUT, with 40 years of business experience behind me now, I've seen it time and time again.

Which is why it is so important to have your "head on straight" at the start of the project. If I've seen ONE universal mistake made by scores of would be Entrepreneurs it would be this:

They don't THINK the plan through to conclusion. Sure, there are countless success stories of people who just "Did It". But for everyone of those, it has been my experience to find at least 10-20 who did not THINK through and do not have a WRITTEN PLAN of Action to follow.

And so we see staggering numbers of failure, frustration and falling by the wayside by people who followed their head to harm...because, they did not put the HARD MENTAL effort into their projects before they started.

So, where is your head?
