There are two quotes that helped change my thinking.

One from @JamesClear, and one from Will Smith.

@Shpigford @jhooks Also, check out the DBX 286S preamp.

@MattGiovanisci says: "I don’t need a lot of soundproofing in my room with the DBX. It has a very effective gate that cuts the room noise out."

Replying to @DavidVII
@DavidVII @derrickreimer @r00k @CasJam @JordanGal It depends on where adoption comes from.

For a lot of B2B apps, adoption comes from the grassroots.

This means you have to empower employees to try your product covertly so that they can prove that it works BEFORE they take it to the boss.

@Mat_Sherman Not exactly.

I'm saying: if you're hiring for a company, and you're offering $300k, you're competing against that person working for themselves (at a much lower rate).

What's interesting is how many people would prefer to work for themselves (for a lot less money).

@r00k @asmartbear Yes!

I'm still curious about how people quantify that 10x value though, especially when there's not a direct correlation between: "we invest $10, and get $100 back."

@jhooks I don't know why, but I instantly pictured this. 😂

@levelsio How can that practice be changed? What if folks donated for the garbage truck? $1 / month seems so affordable to keep the air clean.

@shl Sometimes, repeating yourself makes your communication better.

A lot of popular speeches ("I have a dream!") and stand-up comedy use this technique.

🤔 How did Apple decide that "The Star" was Canada's top newspaper?

@no_fear_inc @codyschneiderxx Reach is leveraged by the foundation you set at the beginning:

1. The market you choose (how cheap/easy are they to reach? do they pay for things?)

2. The customer desire you choose to tackle (how strong is it?)

3. The product you choose to build (does it satisfy the desire?)

Replying to @lovevalgeisler
@lovevalgeisler @JordanGal Ah yes. I know that experiment.

I think this dovetails with something @timoreilly has been talking about lately:

"Gradually, then suddenly."

We often want our success now, "suddenly."

But true success seems to happen "gradually, and then suddenly."

Also: by acquiring Gimlet, @ApplePodcasts could have original, exclusive audio content. (If they don't, they'll lose all those shows to Spotify, who will certainly make it exclusive)

And Apple's streaming service could make original TV and movies from Gimlet's IP.

It's WIN-WIN.

After that I tried @breaker.

Search rating: very good

Results: a search for "James Clear" revealed hundreds of results in episodes (along with "number of likes")

We need all the encouragement we can get. 😄 I'm hoping this is a big year for @TransistorFM. 👌

For me a "real book" means "paper not digital."

@allanbranch I had this incredible time with my family up at Silverstar for the "Christmas lightup" last week.

I also had to debug a database problem on an old WordPress site for hours.

I'd like more of the former. 😄
