CHAPTER TWELVE



                 EARLY DAYS OPERATIONS: CHASE THE

                                  VISION, NOT THE MONEY









                   The money will end up following you.
                                  —Tony Hsieh, CEO of Zappos


               I have believed all my business career—and I have seen
               my belief realized in the success of the businesses I have
               created, as well as the success of businesses of those
               I admire—that if you focus on passion and purpose,
               money will show up when you need it. Hopefully, as
               a founder of a new business, you are passionate and
               committed about what you’re doing. I believe that if
               you are, you will be successful. However, in the very
               beginning and throughout the development of your
               business, there are a few things that are critical for
               focus every day.
