Just when is the right time to pivot (or quit)?
What Got You Here, May Well Not Get You There
Life is fluid. Change is the only certainty. And wherever you are in life, there’s no doubt that you are aiming to get somewhere by some time. Even though, as Einstein told us: “Time is an illusion” - there’s no doubt that we all have the same amount of it in 24 hours, and one day, we won’t have any left at all.
Time, is what prevents everything from happening at once. It’s useful to have timelines, deadlines, goals and destinations. But what got you here, may not get you there.
I watched Andy Murray, the former number one tennis player in the world, capitulate against his opponent in the US Open yesterday. This, despite saying he felt the fittest he’d been in years. It was sad to watch in many ways and did make me wonder why someone who was so successful keeps going when it’s obvious he won’t get back to his peak.
When do we have the realisation that what we’re doing isn’t working any more? When we have to make the choice to try another approach or something new altogether.
Humans are averse to change. Change takes effort and energy, and we’re energy-saving experts. But sometimes, NOT changing can end up taking much more effort. Quitting, is also sometimes the right thing to do.
Just ponder on the fact that what got you here, might get you there… and maybe start to think about what changes are needed instead.
In the meantime, have a great week, learn heaps; love loads and then pass it on.
