I must admit, today was not a great day. In this most recent episode of growing pains, we confronted another situation in which our equity “partner” seemed to be anything but. Something of a recurring theme, he is a busy guy – but apparently we only get slotted in when there’s a break between lunch and recess.
And in this moment of disappointment and frustration, the feeling you get is that the momentum will never come. That maybe you should give up and go back to whatever you did before, even if it wasn’t that great, because it was consistent and safe, but it didn’t inspire.
That can’t be the answer.
So, you stand up, dust yourself off, and climb back on the horse. What that means isn’t always clear. You have to improvise and force yourself to think outside the box, and do the things that used to make you uncomfortable. Because you want it to work. Which means it is the thing that you were meant to do, right?
Tomorrow’s another day.
