Most entrepreneurs blame the wrong quarter.

 

1. Coasting kills compounding.
   The second you start easing off the gas, growth slows down fast. The people who stay sharp win by default.

2. Q4 pressure is built by Q2 decisions.
   The deals, partnerships, and leverage you want in October start with moves made in June.

3. Most entrepreneurs blame the wrong quarter.
   Q4 is not hard. It just reflects how lazy Q2 got.

4. Presence is not the same as passivity.
   You can be fully present with your family and still stay locked in on the mission. One does not cancel the other.
