Again, this comes from reading The Pathless Path.
If we don’t define “enough,” we default to more, which makes it impossible to understand when to say no.
The Pathless Path, page 133.
Given my current planning (for how to proceed with my business) this is life-level critical to remember.
Business planning defaults to growth, to more. More customers. More profit. More employees. These are the markers of accomplishment. They are the markers of externally-bestowed approval. Prestige.
Be extremely wary here. Fortunately I am going through a strategic planning process with a consultant. I am going to add this to the mix. What does the business do? What is my role in the business. The universe will give me whatever I want. I am not going to demand more. Or worse yet, blindly default into the more bucket.
