Determination Trumps All

I came across this fascinating statement from the website of a chap that in part funds businesses:

“Two startups want to hire me. Which should I choose?
The one with the most determined and smartest founders (in that order) is the more likely to succeed.”

Yes! It’s so true, isn’t it? The people, ventures, ideas that win through are not necessarily the ‘best’. They’re the ones with most determination behind them. And the same runs true for sales campaigns and sales people.
