An example is the recent sale of Google Domains to Squarespace. Seems like it was a profitable product, why get rid of it? I'm sure they worked very hard on selling Google Domains, doesn't seem like it actually benefited Google as a company in the long term. Working hard isn't helpful if you don't have a solid vision for what you're working toward.

In fact working slower with a more coherent vision is often better, since you actually get closer to a goal rather than just bouncing around between undefined local maxima as fast as you can.
