  Dave Whorton was John Doerr's associate partner at high-flying Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers during Silicon Valley's big shift. After Netscape's IPO, he witnessed the VC industry pivot from a proven forty-year playbook of managing risk to something much more aggressive: Get big fast. Don't worry about profitability. Cash out and find another venture. 
   
   
   
  And for a while, Whorton took part in this whirlwind as he pursued his dream of becoming the next Hewlett or Packard. It wasn't long, though, before it all got to be too much. Whorton recognized that if "get big fast" was the formula for building a great technology company in the twenty-first century, he was happy to let someone else do it. It just wasn't for him. 
   
   
   
  Whorton went on a journey to find a better way to build companies: a way focused on long-term stability and steady growth, funded through profitability; a way in which leaders were committed to a Purpose greater than personal wealth generation, to being People First, and making their companies endure. He calls these companies "Evergreen." 
   
   
   
  Whorton's story, combined with his Evergreen 7Ps® framework, offers practical steps to create and lead enduring businesses.

  An economical dwelling is a home designed with cost-efficiency in mind, blending affordability, functionality, and sustainability. The concept of such a dwelling goes beyond simply being cheap; it involves thoughtful design choices that minimize expenses while maintaining comfort and quality of life. At its core, an economical dwelling aims to reduce the financial burden on its owner without sacrificing the essential aspects of a well-built home. 
  The primary objective of an economical dwelling is to make housing accessible and affordable for a broader population, particularly in an age when housing prices continue to rise in many parts of the world. However, affordability doesn’t mean compromising on the livability or durability of the dwelling. Instead, it highlights the importance of smart choices in materials, space utilization, and design. In such a home, the cost-saving methods employed are balanced with long-term benefits, such as reduced maintenance costs, lower energy consumption, and sustainability. 
  The idea of an economical dwelling often intersects with the broader concepts of sustainable and green living. Sustainable practices focus not only on reducing construction costs but also on minimizing the environmental impact of the home. For instance, energy-efficient designs, the use of recycled materials, and incorporating renewable energy sources like solar panels or wind turbines all contribute to the overall affordability by reducing ongoing living expenses. In addition to these eco-friendly features, the use of minimalistic designs and efficient layouts helps make the best use of available space, which also keeps building costs lower.

  Diligence is the steady commitment to putting in consistent effort, and it forms the foundation of every successful endeavor. It is not merely about working hard but about investing heart and mind into every task, regardless of its scale or significance. This chapter explores the essence of diligence, emphasizing that it goes beyond the pursuit of perfection and is more about the persistent, day-to-day practice of excellence. 
  At its core, diligence is an attitude that encourages individuals to remain engaged and proactive. It involves setting clear intentions, planning, and executing tasks with a mindful focus. The diligent person recognizes that challenges and obstacles are inevitable, yet they view each setback as an opportunity for growth rather than a barrier to progress. This mindset transforms mundane tasks into building blocks for personal and professional development. 
  Understanding diligence means recognizing its impact on the overall quality of work. It requires the discipline to resist shortcuts and the temptation to settle for mediocrity. A diligent approach is characterized by thoroughness, reliability, and a willingness to take on responsibility. It means being accountable for one’s actions and continuously striving to improve. With diligence, the process of learning and mastery becomes a journey rather than a destination.
