Bend often, but don’t break

You have to be flexible as a business owner, but you also have to know when not to break.

I am rather agnostic to most things when it comes to creating products. When I see something people want, I try to cater to their needs.

However, there are certain constraints which I cannot change without breaking the product.

Perhaps it is the word count, or adding certain modules to a course, but there are always constraints I set up beforehand that I know I must stand firm on.

Everything else is malleable based on the needs of the customer, but certain constraints are based on my needs.

You have to know when you will bend in your business, but it’s equally important to know where you must stand firm and plant.
