Highlights: "This is the time of year when companies and entrepreneurs... start thinking about next year. And I gotta tell you, I think it's a gigantic mistake." "The annual plan is a giant mistake... You have no freaking clue where you're gonna be in 10 years." "Every single quarter, I take about a half day to say what are my habits like? What are my inputs like? What resources do I need to acquire so that I can stay up on my next quarter's goal?"
