I love this. Too often we are trying to apply grand systems to small problems where instead commitment to winning is the key ingredient. The obstacle to success in business I see most often is a teams' willingness to allow for an answer to be "and that's why we won't be able to deliver ____". The biggest lesson your team can learn from you is that obstacles are there to be overcome, not to create an excuse to give up.

Great post. Honestly it is validating. I struggle with process, but mostly due to my commitment to sales. Feels good to hear I might be getting something right. Someone asked me the other day how I “get it all done” and nothing describes that better than your “heroics” mentality. I’m constantly pulling my business and everyone in it across the finish line. However, the first thing I said when I answered the question was “sales always comes first, because without sales there is no business”. Good start to my Sunday haha!
