Take the Shot!
No, I am not talking about drinking an Irish Car Bomb at the bar tomorrow night. It’s a reference to a very well-known and way overused quote by Wayne Gretzky, “You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take.”
So what does this mean for you? I see it as a call to action—and a manifesto against INACTION.
- It means: “Get up out of your desk chair and go see someone new.”
- It means, “Pick up the phone and make 10 cold calls before you do ANYTHING else today.”
- It means, “If you keep doing what you’re doing, you’ll keep getting what you’re getting, so if you want something to change, YOU have to change it.”
OK, enough already.
