Oftentimes you hear:
- Move steadily in the direction of your dreams.
- Move swiftly in the direction of your dreams.
Yet this quote from Lincoln is more powerful than you think, if you take a minute to see what he’s saying.
There are too many people who want to push you to move as quickly as possible, to create what they think is BEST for you.
They will advise you to make decisions quickly, don’t end up missing out on this opportunity that may never come again, buy now and regret later, on and on.
However, when you look at the quote you realize that if you move slowly, considering all the options, choices, and alternatives available to you, then we you’re ready, you won’t go backwards.
Consider this the next time you’re making a decision…
Choose to move slowly, thoughtfully, so that you don’t go backwards based on someone else’s choice.
