WHO TOLD YOU WE'RE IN A RACE?


While I completely understand the urgency some feel to get their work out there, I cannot comprehend why certain people do so with such a desperation which often leads to them putting their work out prematurely!

If you must be in competition with someone let that person be whoever you were yesterday; whichever stage you were at with your goals.

In showing your cards too early, as the saying goes, you can often find that those you think you’re in a race with will get ahead of you because, in seeing your game plan; realising that your aim is to simply be the first, you give your so-called competitor the upper hand. They see what you have to offer and can then play a hand they didn’t even know they had; one that you effectively gave to them!

I’m not saying you should wait longer than necessary to get something out to the public. I am simply a great believer in taking your time, feeling rather than thinking you are ready; having no shame in deciding to pull back a little, and to always ensure that what you are presenting is authentic, original and quality!

Don’t rush anything. It’s all about what you do and how you do it not by when! Produce things of substance over time, nothing poor because you rushed and delivered for the wrong reasons.
