Simple Problems

What's the problem with simple? A lot of people will tell you that the problem with making something simple is that simple can't handle complex situations or complex problems. It's actually not the case and it's not really the point. The problem that we have with simple is that quite often we equate simple with unimportant.

And then those simple things that we have set up to help make our business run, get treated as though they're unimportant. And the next thing we know, our business is a complex mess again. Welcome to the program. Today we're gonna talk about simple problems. Enjoy the episode.

"The problem with keeping things simple is that simple things seem like small things, and small things are easy to move aside." — Jos Willard
