This week, in episode 220, Paul Downs and Jay Goltz talk about the risks they didn’t see coming. While everyone knows there’s a risk that a business can fail because it just doesn’t work, there are lots of other, less obvious risks. These are not the risks you lose sleep over, but they’re real, and if you don’t manage them, you can expose yourself needlessly to a slew of problems. Because most people learn about these risks the hard way, Jay and Paul set out to create a top 10 list of them, but I think—for those of you keeping score at home—we actually hit 11. Which led Jay to caution: “I by no means am telling anybody, ‘Oh my God, I don't sleep at night. I'm worried about all these things.’ I'm not worried about them. I just keep an eye on them.” Wait, says Paul. That’s another one: “The risk is that you let this thing live in your head and that it destroys your ability to focus on what you should focus on.” Okay, so that makes 12. And by all means, please let us know which ones we missed.
