It’s said that Cortéz, upon reaching the New World, directed his men to burn the ships behind them. It’s a powerful image.
If you’re unfamiliar with this as a business concept, the idea is that at times you need to be fully committed to moving forward, having no option for retreat.
It flies directly in the face of contingency planning. Which I’m a fan of.
