You're already self-employed…(So, when are you going to start acting like it?)
“The idea that you are a faceless cog in a benevolent system that cares about you and can't tell particularly whether you are worth a day's pay or not is…like it or not…over.
In the long run, we're all dead. In the medium-long run, though, we're all self-employed. In the medium-long run, the decisions and actions we take each day determine what we'll be doing next.” Seth Godin
ZDT Author’s Comments:
Talk about bottom lining life’s decisions…Seth nails it.
One author said: “The Original Decision Created the Ultimate Decision” and that “Life is but a Decision.”
Another quoted a Bible verse: Matt 27:1 “Early in the morning, all the chief priests and the elders of the people came to the decision to put Jesus to death.
And, then there is this: “As a man thinks, so is he, and as a man decides, so is he.”
Ralph Waldo Emerson
So with the constant emphasis of the decisions of life being so front/center…
please consider:
-The hierarchy of decisions to be made (not treating little choices versus life altering decisions with the same emphasis or technique).
-Adopt a simple, memorable, repeatable and reliable decision making System or MODEL going forward (and share it with friends and family).
-Create some form of accountability with your decision process.
-Decide to decide.
We welcome your feedback.
Very true!...every decision, not matter how small, has significant long-term implications.
