This sounds odd, but just typing in a message feels unusually slick compared with e.g. GMail in the browser, which I struggle to explain. Has anybody else thought this? Is it a projection caused by a pretty-looking interface? Or the instant

No no no, the article says this exactly the other way around : If you want to build an organically-growing, self-funded or lifestyle business (including, say, 37 signals' model) then going it alone is fine. If you want to take on high-stak

Really? That sounds fascinating - have you got any references I could follow up on? It's always felt like it should be true, but after acting as if it isn't for a while it didn't seem to hold to me.

OP here - this is a fair point but I think the comparison stands; in the post I defined discipline as taking the easy way out (in this case avoidance and/or giving up) off the table and forcing yourself to keep looking for other ways to mak
