🌱 Getting the World to Do the Work for You
If exiting institutions knew what they were doing, we wouldn’t have startups or bankruptcy lawyers.
Part of the answer is we don’t listen to the feedback of reality. When we don’t get the outcome we’re seeking, the last place we look is with our actions. It’s too easy to wiggle out of responsibility by blaming others and circumstances. It’s not that this approach is entirely ineffective. We eventually get the job half done in twice the time. The person working with the world, however, gets the job fully done in half the time.
