Setting A Course

From Monocle magazine, which I enjoy though don't read all that often (at ten bucks a pop, it's a bit too expensive for me) --

How to Chart A Steady Course

1. Keep focused on what lies over the horizon
2. Don't be distracted by trends or fads
3. Know what you stand for
4. Maintain a diverse talent mix
5. Invest in seeing the world
6. Be tyrannical when it comes to details.
7. Change tack the moment it's no longer fun.

And speaking of talent, we just found Talenti Gelato. Quite good!

Then I think you have a well-run business! (Doesn't hurt that you have tangible output.)
