25: Dan Kuschell | The 3 D's Method of Simplifying Your Business with Dan Kuschell of Genius Network

Recently, I sat down with Dan Kuschell. If you don't know Dan, he's the CEO of Genius Network and he's started 11 businesses. In this interview, Dan covered some deep and different thinking on the topic of simplifying business.

Business seems to breed complexity. In fact, if you feel overwhelm or stress it's likely due to the fact that your business has reached a level of complexity that you can no longer manage it with your current thinking, systems, and resources.

“Nothing in this world can take the place of persistence. Talent will not; nothing is more common than unsuccessful men with talent. Genius will not; unrewarded genius is almost a proverb. Education will not; the world is full of educated derelicts. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent.”
― Calvin Coolidge, 30th President of the United States
