The Tactical Business Plan
Big Red Car here. Ahh, the ATX, it’s lovely to live in paradise. The Boss is back, so finally it’s back to writing regularly. Hey, Boss, nice to have you back.
So The Boss is involved with Techstars Austin as a Mentor and meets all the teams on Mentor Day or some such thing. Very impressive folks and startups. Continue reading

Planning Your Path To The Pay Window, Are You?
Big Red Car here. The Boss is still in the Boat skiing. Nothing like Spring skiing — 40F at the base and colder up top but warm and pleasant for the schussing. And, we all love a bit of schussing.
So The Boss runs into one of his pals — uber successful guy — who has retired to Steamboat Springs and they get to talking about the lovely cocktail called “success”. The recipe for success.

Hedging Your Bets
Big Red Car here. For the record the A/C has been on in The Boss’s house in the last 24 hours. Just saying.
Today it will be, oh, about 80F this afternoon. Love that global warming.

Discipline — Blind Spots
Big Red Car here. Going to be a great day in the ATX. Nice cold, crisp, sunny day.
So you probably watched a bit of college football yesterday, no? The Boss loves college football and is often mumbling that college football is very much like the startup business. [I think he’s just trying to justify how damn much college football he’s been watching lately. Bowl games, yeah!]

Strategy v Tactics v Objectives
Big Red Car here. Oh boy what a Sunday we had yesterday. I hope you got out and about before the clouds moved in as it was glorious!
The Boss took the local American Institute of Architects Home Tour. It was great fun to see a cross section of exquisite remodels and new homes.

Planning, It’s a Tough Discipline
Big Red Car here. Bit cloudy early this morning in the ATX but it’s going to burn off and be a lovely, warm day. On Earth as it is in Texas!
Horns won last night v Iowa State and had a tough time of it. Whew. Mack Brown might want to start updating his resume. The Big Red Car supports Mack Brown and wants to remind everyone that the guy saved the Longhorns’ bacon and returned them to prominence. But then again, what have you done for me recently, right?
Today, The Boss is going to take me to the body shop and get a price to get me repainted. Ahhh, I think The Boss is up to something. Hmmm.
I wonder what he’s planning.

The Character Traits and Skills of the Successful CEO — PLANNING
Big Red Car here. Things are going swimmingly in the ATX. On Earth as it is in Texas, ya’ll!
So The Boss has been pontificating a bit on the character traits and skills of the successful CEO and today wanted me to ponder the issue of planning. Because planning, Old Sport, is an essential skill of successful CEOs. Thus sayeth the Big Red Car on this bright and sunny morning.
