It’s an odd thing: The audience wants characters (or storytellers) to succeed, but they don’t really want characters to succeed. It’s struggle and strife that make stories great. They want to see their characters ultimately triumph, but they want suffering first. They don’t want anything to be easy.
Perfect plans executed perfectly never make good stories. They are the stories told by narcissists, jackasses, and thin-skinned egotists.

They are good at seizing opportunities, decision making, problem solving, closing sales, managing other people, hiring, firing, training, and delegating. You know, all the hard, uncomfortable stuff. The stuff we’re talking about in this book.
If your goal is to grow a business, why not focus on learning to operate and be indifferent about what business idea you pursue?
