Quote by Earl Browder

I knew I could not maintain that leadership in open struggle against Moscow influence. Only two Communist leaders in history ever succeeded in doing this - Tito and Mao Tse-tung.

I knew I could not maintain that leadership in open struggle

Summary

This quote highlights the realization that the speaker, likely a communist leader themselves, recognizes their inability to effectively resist the influence of Moscow (referring to the leadership of the Soviet Union) through open confrontation. They acknowledge that only two iconic communist leaders, Tito (Josip Broz Tito) and Mao Tse-tung, were successful in maintaining their leadership while resisting Moscow's control. This suggests that open defiance may not be the most prudent or effective approach in navigating the complex dynamics of communist power struggles and maintaining autonomy as a leader.

Famous pivot stories are often failures but you don't need to fail before you pivot. All a pivot is is a change is strategy without a change in vision. Whenever entrepreneurs see a new way to achieve their vision - a way to be more successful - they have to remain nimble enough to take it.
