Go your own way

Good advice from Wall Street Journal columnist Lee Gomes in Monday's paper:

"Perhaps the best strategic advice for a company is to ignore strategic advice, because all it will be is warmed-over conventional wisdom. Instead, companies should make sure they are on the right side of history, and then try to do whatever it is they do as well as they can."

Seems like particulary timely advice for textile companies...and newspapers. I have not seen newspapers petition Congress to transport them to the 1950s, however.
