In a perfect world, businesses grow in a smooth, upward trajectory that is both predictable and deliberate. There are no slow times...no staff upheavals...no sleepless nights...
Clearly, I'm living in the wrong place.
In my world, business grows the same way that Elaine Benes (from Seinfeld) dances: everything looks perfectly normal, but then the music starts and suddenly we're witnessing a herky-jerky motion with very little rhyme and sometimes no reason. Sooner or later, someone's going to lose an eye.
