What do you think is one of the main causes of failure of many companies?

Hint – I have written extensively about this, as something that every financial professional must implement.

Entrepreneur and Jazz guitarist Josh Linkner gives a wonderful answer. He writes, “More companies die of indigestion than of starvation. When you look back five years from now, your success will be based more on the times you have said “no” rather than the times you said “yes”.”

As the old Chinese proverb states wisely, “Chase two rabbits and both will escape.”

Just to add, chasing none is equally worse.

What about you?

How many are you chasing?

Zig Ziglar rightly said, “Lack of direction, not lack of time, is the problem. We all have twenty-four hours in a day.“
