Cutting It Close

Let’s imagine you’re in a car race. You’re at the starting strip and the countdown is underway.

3…2…1…

You’ve likely waited until after the 1 to go. You erred on the side of being too late than too early.

After all, you know there’s a penalty in a race for going too soon.

Yet, that’s not the case in life. If anything, we’re rewarded more often when we act before 1 or before 2 or even before 3.

It may be time to stop treating everything as a race. Doing so is likely holding you back.

Stay Positive & Go, Go, Go
