Finding the Natural Size for Your Company →
Chasing growth as an end in itself makes it all too easy to give up optimizing for today: “When we break 5 million dollars, we’ll start working less”, “when we’re 50 people, we’ll start giving more back to open source”. Bah. Growth begets growth and you’ll end up chasing even bigger numbers and never have the time to do what you really want.
Here we are again with 37S – I think this article pretty much sims it up for me. I know this will sound really strange, especially in the context of business but – it’s not about money. If you make money the priority of your company you are doing it wrong. Money is just one kind of compensation you get for offering services, and those services should be your priority – always.
So fuck a money, concentrate on enjoying life and doing things that make you happy, you’ll be OK.
