Joe Fier (speaker) uses a Mount Everest anecdote in a product masterclass to warn against shortcuts when launching a course: tourists who use a helicopter to reach the summit immediately pass out due to lack of acclimatization, paralleling students who skip necessary preparation and expect instant success.

So one example that I share in my experience product masterclass is a group of tourists that wanted to get to the top of Mount Everest. Right? And of course, the metaphor is these are my students who want to launch a successful course, and they didn't want to spend, you know, however long the week or two going from base camp to base camp to acclimate to each level of the atmosphere, and decided to just hire a helicopter to take them up to the top of Mount Everest in just like an hour. And so they get to the top of Mount Everest, they open the door, get out of the helicopter, and instantly pass out because they did not, you know.
