Wikipedia says a “Quagmire” is a word referring to a swampy area or intractable situation. It’s also a word I’d use to describe what happens to companies every once in awhile. They get stuck in a quagmire…and sometimes they don’t even know it.
The fortunate thing for us is that we all, the executive team, acknowledge that we are in a technical quagmire of sorts. We have stuff that needs to get done but it can’t get done before we get some other stuff done…that currently, we have no idea how to get done (I sound like Donald Rumsfeld!).
Anyhow, starting a business is awesome, exciting and fruitful…but it ain’t all wine and roses (usually more wine than roses…c’mon, there are three guys running this thing).
Just wanted to let all you faithful blog readers know that we don’t always have our rose colored glasses on. If I can think of another metaphor having to do with roses I’ll let you all know.
More to come!
