Pulling at threads...

Have you ever pulled at a tiny thread, and then started getting worried as the thread becomes longer and longer….?

I had a similar worry after yesterday’s post (about how having a plan is the crucial step between goals and actions) because as I tugged at that idea, it started me down a path of re-validating my goals, which in turn led to a pretty a fundamental review of my overall mission and strategy.

It has all turned out to be a bigger job than I first thought, but that’s okay because my mission and goals were due a spruce up anyway, so the time I put into that work will pay dividends for years to come.

Sometimes, we are a little bit reluctant to pull at loose threads because we are worried that it will result in the arm falling off our favourite jacket, but some threads DO need to be pulled, if only to check that everything is neat, tidy and secure…
