#sydstart

I've heard this sentiment expressed in different ways for startups.

"Find your one thing"

"Focus"

"The OMTM" (one metric that matters).

At SydStart today (Sydney's biggest startup event), it was repeated in a way that somehow stuck with me:

Find the one thing you can be the best at globally. Make sure everyone on your team fully believes it. Then pursue it at the expense of anything else.  - Dominic O'Hanlon

Thinking about it this way just raises the bar.

We've put the SydStart Schedule into a mindmap to make it easy to make notes on the interesting stuff we're going to learn. We use iThoughtsHD on the iPad for this, but MindJet also makes a pretty good iPad app.

Enjoy and see you there!
