How can I apply rationality to business?

How can I apply rationality to business?

  • Avoid sunk costs.
  • If stuff doesn't work figure out why and (in most cases) do different stuff.
  • When predicting how long a project will take consider how long similar tasks tend to take and use that as a (rather strong) guide.
