The Glorius Departure



"All glory comes from daring to begin."

BW reader Tim Andersen asked me if all my new venture decisions were based on reason or passion, a question which relates to this post.

If they had been largely or certainly completely based on reason, I doubt I'd ever have started anything.

At some point, you have to begin.

  1. so think carefully about starting passionately?

  2. "Starting" takes more energy than most people have. For many it is just easier to "be" rather than attempt to "become".

    Nonetheless, I do recommend thinking carefully about anything involving serious risk. If it is worth doing it is worth planning to do.
