Hey, it’s Jesper!
You’re sitting in the cabin of an airplane, preparing for takeoff.

Why. Because a decision gets you going — regardless if it’s good or bad.
You can course-correct — you’re in motion.
You can course-correct — you’re in motion.
The non-decision route has you flapping your flippers in the wind with no direction, purpose, or conviction. It tends to leave you in a state of fear of making mistakes.
Don’t be afraid of making bad decisions. They just might be the spark you need.
To your success
Jesper
