“The risk of relying on a handful of customers is not just financial. Y...” — Jason Fried Quote

The risk of relying on a handful of customers is not just financial. Your product also is at risk when you're at the mercy of a few big spenders. When any one customer pays you significantly more than the others, your product inevitably ends up catering mostly to that customer's specific needs.

If you care about your product, you should care just as much about how you describe it.

When time, money, and results are on the line, it's easy for tension to build.

No is easier to do. Yes is easier to say.

It feels good to be productive.

I told the caterer I'd work for nothing if he'd teach me about catering. I lasted one week full-time. It was exhausting.

When we were doing 'Criminal Justice,' they were filming 'Clash of the Titans' nearby and we kept nicking off to their catering tent and going, 'Look what they've got!'

When you're directing, you look around and you think, everything I see is my responsibility. From the catering being on time to whether the clouds are moving the way I need them to move to whether this actor is giving the performance I want to whether the costumes are what they should be.

The diversity of H.O.R.D.E. is overwhelming while still catering to the fans.
