My experience in business is less about award winning ideas than it is about details in actually running a company. Reading a P & L. Having great advisors. I have quarterly meetings with a top accounting firm. I also get semi-annual briefings from a great law firm. Things like estate planning, reinvesting capital,employee law,etc... There are a lot of details in keeping the money you make.

Probably the best tip I received early in my career was put together the best team you can and then let them do what you pay them to do. A few of you could probably name more than two players on the first Greenbay Packer superbowl team..But everyone knows who coached them.

Ideas are easy. Everyone has them. Applying them is the real trick.
