Ok, I give up! waiting for things to happen that is.
Occasionally, I have this wonderful delusion that somehow, my company’s product, become ultra famous literally within a single day. You’ve heard it before. Some product gets features somewhere and suddenly become an overnight success, or that out of nowhere, a new product takes over the market by storm. Oh, and the famous “I don’t spent a single cent on marketing” bullshit.
They all seems wonderful, but they really an exception, not the norm. For most successful companies, there is an unbelievable amount of work that goes into it, including marketing the product. The work involved are tough, gritty and took very long hours. No ones likes to do it, but it increases your chance of success by 1,000 fold!
The sooner we accept that we really can’t skip the “hard work” part and that waiting for that magical moment of success to happen is not going to take us forward, the sooner it is we can get back to work and make things happen. Acceptance is the key!
Well said Azrul! My congratulations to you and your team. Hope we can catch up one day and see how we can help each other to realise this “hard work”
Savor the moments!
