You should be begging me for tips on how to please God. You are Cain. I am Abel.

The whole last section of the article on "seven virtuous habits" corresponds 1:1 without attribution to Steven Covey's "seven habits of highly effective people."

It never ceases to amaze me how many people and self-help practitioners borrow shamelessly from the seven habits and never once expect that any of their audience might just recognise where the material comes from.

This is funny and I've seen startups do it as well as product managers at bigger companies:

One of the biggest mistakes startups make is treating launch like the be all end all. "It's like if you just launched, dropped the mic, and said peace out, we’re done," Marooney says.

And I really like this analogy: Launching is like the opening move in a chess game. So true. You need to have next steps planned out with different options depending on how customers or competitors react.

I have owned all radio stations, full time, and news sites for ten years. Publicity is not my problem.

I face a problem with my reality.
