Cash Flow is Your Oxygen
If the patient dies on the operating table, the 'future cure' doesn't matter.
Too many financial plans focus on 20 years from now while ignoring the fact that the business is suffocating for cash today. Cash flow isn't just a metric; it’s oxygen.

- Adaptive Design: Use structures that recognize when the business needs to hold onto its breath.
Wealth is a marathon, but you have to be able to breathe to finish it.
