                   By age 27, Alon Chen had what many would consider the pinnacle job: He was a regional Chief Marketing Officer at Google, overseeing programs that would grow into a multi-billion-dollar business across more than 30 markets.

                  <p style="line-height:175%">
                   Yet four years after reaching that peak, he walked away to start

                  <p style="line-height:175%; font-weight:bold">
                   Why did he leave Google?
                   <span style="font-weight: normal;">
                    On paper, it made no sense to leave. Chen calls himself a “really comfortable corporate guy in the golden cage,” well aware of the prestige and security of his position. His mother, he jokes, “thought it was insane” to walk away from Google. But he stands behind the choice: “If you’re asking me, it was the best decision I’ve made.”
                   </span>
                  </p>
                  <p style="line-height:175%; font-weight:bold">
                  </p>
                  <p style="line-height:175%">
                   The problem was personal impact. Google had grown so large that even meaningful wins started to feel diluted. By the time Chen left, the company was too big to make a big impact like he did with the Google Partners Program again. He had proven he could build a multibillion‑dollar business inside a giant, but he no longer felt sure whether success came from his personal work or the magnitude of the Google brand.
                  </p>
                  <p style="line-height:175%">
                  </p>
                  <p style="line-height:175%">
                   He’d also caught what he calls the “entrepreneurial bug.” So after nine years at Google, by age 31, Chen felt ready. “I got everything I needed to build the confidence that I can build a big venture,” he says.

                  Rituals also give founders a reliable pulse on the business.

Over time, these routines compound: your business starts running on systems, not on adrenaline.
