Yesterday, I posted a mini-rant on my Facebook wall about how sick I am of seeing everybody’s exact formula for anything because exact formulas only work for hacks. So if you are a hack, great. Apply someone else’s exact formula. For the non-hacks among us, you can’t do it that way. Perhaps that’s the only wrong way to do business – expecting and hoping that someone else’s success can be exactly replicated even though that is impossible because you are not them, in their exact place, with the exact people they know, with the exact social and systemic structures that support and undergird their cultural power, with their exact face and energy and list and on and on and on, (you get me).
