“If you can predict the rate at which you create (or create and grow) qualified pipeline, and you know your average close rate(s), then you can start predicting your revenue.”

Of course you want more revenue, but what good is it if it isn’t predictable?

Companies should be selling ideas more than benefits. Sell ideas. Not stuff.

One-time revenue spikes that aren’t repeatable won’t help you achieve consistent year-after-year growth.

One of the biggest mistakes companies make is brute force lead generation – “give me more leads!” -when they don’t understand that not all leads are the same.

Let everything you do be done as if it makes a difference.

They’re basically moments in which you’re in touch with the meaning of life, when your relationship to the rest of the universe makes sense.

The tragedy of our day is the climate of fear in which we live, and fear breeds repression.

It seems that I have spent my entire life trying to make life more rational and that it was all wasted effort.
