Stop, Focus, and Think

Ok, so...sometimes opportunities just drop in your lap. You don't go looking for them, but you wake up one day and there it is. Just like a big leaguer stepping up to the plate and finding that for this bat, they are letting them use the T-ball stand. You sit there and consider your good fortune, you are thrilled with potential and the mind starts racing...Almost like you won the lottery or something.

But you know what. Those of use who believe in the entrepreneurial spirit know that nothing is ever as easy as what you think, and that you have to really dig deep to find the gold in any business. You don't just walk out and pick up piles of money.

So over the past few weeks, I've been considering such an opportunity, a wide blue sky kind of opportunity. But you know what...its time to hunker down and focus on the projects that I've already got burning. I realized that reaching out for a new opportunity, something that has great potential, but also risk...would put everything I've built at risk.

So...after looking in the mirror and evaluating it without the emotion of the new and better idea filter...its time to put this new idea aside until we get everything else done around here.

Stop..Focus..Think..ACT
