Boring biz's (think HVAC, porta potties..) are overlooked because they're unsexy.
But unsexy = simple. And simple means:
• Predictable cash flow
• Competitors without $1B in funding
• Low bars for customer service

"Watching Paint Dry" Investing Method
Buffet's investing strategy is simple:
1. Make a few smart bets
2. Give them decades to play out

The Ultimate Inspiration Fuel
People are terrified of boredom.
But your best ideas need space to bloom, not a never-ending stream of Zoom calls.
Leave unscheduled gaps in your calendar: Long walks. Long lunches. Unplanned afternoons. ROI on that is huge.
