Your Goal and Your Flexibility Don't Get Them Confused!
You must know what your goal is but, to get there you must be flexible on how you will achieve it.
Sitting and watching a couple with a 6 year old daughter plan a vacation trip taught me a valuable lesson.
The couple were headed to Disney World and were planning on driving there so out came the map and pencil. They traced their route one way then another.
The six year old kept watching as they kept erasing each planned out line, then redoing it. The couple was about to wear out the eraser when the little girl ask, "Mom do you and daddy know where your going?"
Mom says, "Sure honey we just haven't decided what route we are taking yet."
You know my thought was what if this trip was someones business. What if they just started and they were miss-guided enough to think; because the route wasn't clear (yet) the goal wasn't attainable.
Never get the goal and the fact you must be flexible confused. You must never lose sight of that goal however; you have to be flexible on which direction you will travel to get there.
If your not what you will find is Murphy's Law will throw all he has at you. If this happens and you are not flexible you are going to get discouraged and give up.
When you are taking a trip and there's a detour you just go around the problem and keep your goal in mind and business is NO different.
