3 States of Your Business: In Flow, Stuck, and Waiting.

<p style="text-align:center;"></p> <p>In this episode Corey asks Chris, "The other leaders that you've observed from being an investor or executive or being you know board member CEO, do you want to surround the issue and debate for the sake of maximizing all the different off-ramps that you could take or is it genuinely from a science level scientific level that you have your flag?"</p> <p>This leads to Chris talking about the three stages of your business or career, he says, "I'd like to think of myself as the guy who insists that we go science first. And if you're going to go science first. That means you have to be ready to do experiments and experiments are very well understood.

You're in flow, and you stay in flow.</p> <p>What would be the point of developing great skills and I'm not continuing to use them. When the road keeps paving itself in front of you, all you have to do is stay on the path.</p> <p>Don't fall, don't talk about it. Don't think about it, just go do
