Mark Evans describes a business decision three years ago that he now calls one of the silliest things he's done. He and a partner are considering shutting down a company, expecting to lose about a million dollars, partly because his partner is a whiner and not a winner. He wants to cut loose from draining commitments and focus on winning ventures instead.

About one million dollars.

Three years ago, I did a crazy business deal. One of the dumbest business things I've ever done. I think people forget, like, yeah, I'm doing cool, successful stuff, but there's also still failures happening right now. There's a company, actually today, me and my partner were talking about, like, shutting it down. I just don't want to deal with it. I'm going to lose a million dollars on that. But my time, freedom, my mind, and the people in that business, I just don't want to deal with it anymore. I'm just done. I just want to win with winners. And the partner that we took on in this particular business, he's just not a winner. He's a whiner. I don't want to deal with it anymore.
