"Hmmm, so quick to be condescending. We spoke many of times,
and I clearly understand any and everything you've once said.
Given you my own examples in my own perspective,
and can very easily see what you're talking about."
I doubt it or you would already be doing it. (So clearly no condescending; just observation)
Our struggles may also be the different type of people we are.
I am a west coast person who is comfortable with team brainstorming
and crafting legs to those ideas.
I've noticed East Coasterners have little patience for that creative process.
You certainly don't have patience for that process;
and often get abrasive and insulting in an attempt to control it.
Hence my previous comment of not being able to work with you.
However I believe in you and the vision of Toshidesk.
You know I will not give away any more insight for free. (Except on Toshidesk)
However I want your team to get a handle on increasing your leverage quotient.
(It is essentially non-existent now)
"Why not be apart of the movement, instead of being a back seat driver?
... When I ask not help. Can you see why I'm not amused any more?"
Lets get this contract signed and put your words to the test.
Prove to me you can help, because you know what you're doing.
You speak a good game, but can you really be a game changer for us?
Case in point. You may not see it Rich but the method you dialog
is a "challenge and control" style as above. (Though this is pretty light.)
I suspect you don't even see it. I have experienced it from day one with you.
I also suspect that the environment of crypto perhaps needs this method
just to cut through the crap and get something done.
I was hoping you had another level; another style; once I had proven my capabilities.
It is flat out wearying to have to cut through that "style" with you to get to productive things.
No doubt you use that "style" to flush out the non productive time wasters.
This is the impass Rich. I won't tolerate the "challenge and control" turse abrasive leadership style
because it opposes the creative process of how I am wired.
I do however understand just why you do it and perhaps how it helps you get things done.
If you cannot grow your leadership style past it you will be your worst enemy if Toshidesk
grows to the degree where it interfaces with the real Fintec world.
My apologies for being long winded.
I do expect some turse, "challenge and control" response from you but hope you reflect
and grow your skill-sets to adapt to the differing environ of business personalities.
BTW - If I did not see value in you, the project, DC-Girl, MTR, Toshidesk etc. --- I would not bother with an effort here.
So I'm from the east coast, you're from the west cost.
I've spent a lot of time with you already.
Countless talks, chats, skypes, brainstorms, etc.
It comes to a point where I'm all talked out when it comes to the same this and that conversation.
I can't help that I don't like wasting time.
I can't help that the way I get things done goes against the way you like to take your time.
If I was a time taker and didn't get things done, ToshiDesk wouldn't be where it is today.
All I can tell you is if you want to work with me, work with me.
If you want to backseat driver there is going to be a time where I just put the window divider up, and just occasionally look at you in the rear view.
You said you don't want you ideas given away for free.
I mentioned you would be paid.
You agreed with the terms of compensation.
You mentioned you wanted a contract.
I followed with asking you you to present me one and the team and I would look at.
You said you wanted to talk with the team.
I got you in touch with my team, and they said they are waiting on your contract as well.
and THAT is where it stands.
I'm waiting for a contract from you to be presented.
Is that too much to ask for?
If so, we are just blowing smoke up eachothers rumps and I spent enough time doing that with you already.
I like our talks, and yes I push to make things happen...It's just the person I am.
I don't stop, don't quit, and have too much pride in my time to waste it.
Fair enough?
Cheers,
