Mike Andes talks with an entrepreneur about staying calm under pressure and a strategy called "Wipe and Deploy": taking proven ideas from books, videos, or other founders and executing them quickly without overthinking or changing them.
This is something I know I've mentioned to you that I admire about you. I've looked at from afar, but the ability to take in a high stress situation to bring it down. There are times when everyone's euphoric to be able to bring it down. When everyone's mad at you to be able to make sure you're like not going too low. Like I've always said like higher lows, lower highs. So emotionally stable would be certainly an ingredient of successful entrepreneurs. I would agree.
I'll give a couple more. Could go down this list, but something I've observed in people, like I, I think I'd put you in this bucket. There's, I'll just, I'll title it Wipe and Deploy. So this idea that there's like, you could go read a book that has all this great wisdom in it, or you could watch a YouTube video from somebody that's clearly done it. And you take that idea and you just do it. There's not much of that actually. I, one of the things I've noticed is a lot of people are like, they'll hear it, they don't do anything with it, or they'll hear it and they're like going to change it in different ways versus like, this guy is running a $100 million business. He's tested these things. Maybe. Yeah. Just do it. Like, it'll just be done. And so like, there's this idea, I, I've really noticed that some of the people that move really fast listen to the right source and then they'll just take the idea and do it.
