They Aren't Building Any Rockets Anymore

Where's the Beef? They aren't building any rockets anymore.

Once, I asked a friend of mine what the point was in running a brand that couldn’t compete in the market. They were spending a fortune on marketing every day, yet they weren’t even trying to develop a genuinely valuable product. The team was rubbish, the processes were rubbish, and they were neither organised nor motivated. So why? Why were they so persistent in their obsession to stay in the market, wasting money without any real benefit? The answer was: "Why should we want to make any money?"

That was a revelation. Indeed, when you discover there are multiple shades of a colour, you should also realise there’s more than one simple reason to be in business.

If you don’t have a motive, find it. If you don’t see a bird, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist, right?
