Just Do It
No. This is not some Nike Propaganda
Last night I saw a show – “The New Inventor” on the Australia Network channel, a channel that in the past I have only flipped through en route from “Star World” to “AXN”. One of the inventors being profiled on the show made a statement, one that I have heard in the past, but one so profound that it deserves its own blog post.
I paraphrase his statement below -
When you have an idea or a vision, it can have three possible outcomes -
You give it all you’ve got and you suceed
or, You give it all you’ve got and fail
or, You ignore it and spend a lifetime wondering “What If?” !!!
The first outcome is the happy path. The second outcome involves a temporary downside accompanied by lessons that will serve you for a lifetime. The last outcome involves a lifetime of doubt.
