6. Why do we lose
opportunities?

7. Fear
If you are not uncomfortable with the release
of the product - you are late
Personal Capacity Limitation
There are only couple of things are
really important in your life
Isolation from People
Share your knowledge before people ask you.
They might not know what they should ask.
Tunnel Thinking
No problem can be solved from the same
level of consciousness that created it
Emotionality
Be smarter than you really are
EGO
Don't expect people anything and you will
not be disappointed in them – WRONG!
There is no role other people couldn't replace you

Talk before you do wrong step
to save reputation and relationship
No Reliability
Nobody is interested you do something –
Bring results, or stop talking about it
No Robust Values
Not only in money we trust
People should share a company's values
Impulsive Decisions
Analyze how your chose will help you to acquire
the skills required for future achievements
Failed Commitments
Reputation is not only about the current team,
It is always about your place in the whole industr
Crying instead of Doing
Stop feeling sorry for yourself,
your contribution is worthless

14. REAL WAY
Don’t Do If Not Believe
People are afraid of changes in stable World.
Anybody can find many reasons, why it doesn’t
work. You must find reasons, why It will work.
Fail Fast
If you are not uncomfortable with
the release of the product - you are late
Result Tells More
No one pays for intentions
Diplomatic Mindset
Be smarter than you really are,
listening before speaking
Manager is Zero w/o Team
Universal solders is unprofitable myth.
Dynamic industry needs complex solutions ASAP.
Avoid Miscommunication
Enemy’s actions - aggression addressed to us
Our actions - reactions to the environment
Avoid Perfection
If you are not uncomfortable with
the release of the product - you are late
Player, Not Hero
There are only two ways: UP or OUT
Other ways are leading to stagnation

15. NEVER STOP
