When You've Waited Too Long

It seems fair and you might think it’s smart to wait to see if the newest social media platform works before jumping in, to wait to see if selling books in a milk carton is a good idea (it is) before you try something new with your book, to wait to see if the ad agency that focuses on a few perfect ads rather than a million mediocre ones will succeed before you adopt a similar strategy.

The only problem when you’ve waited too long to see if a risk someone else takes works out is when you finally take the risk yourself, you’re jumping into a bandwagon already filled with mediocrity. Different wagon. Same story.

There’s no shame in not being first, but there’s plenty in the middle.
