Some of us are of the view that everything needs to be perfect and any discrepancy needs to be sorted out. It would be good if the business world would be perfect and we had all the time we needed on our hands but the truth is we just can’t get everything right.
I use my “In scheme of things” stick to measure things very often when I need to make a judgement call and it has served me well so far.
Look at the bigger picture at times and small gains or losses don’t matter as much.
You can’t be underprepared but if you try to make everything perfect before proceeding at times, all you end up doing is stalling your progress.
