Procrastination Is a Thief in the Night

Newsletter-Article-2-1

I talk all the time with people who love viewing the detailing world from the safety of their porch or from behind the keyboard of their computer. Analysis paralysis is real, and all too many people analyze the industry, the investment, and spend countless hours looking at online forums, blogs, and watching YouTube.


Hours turn into days, then weeks and even years. Performing your due diligence is important and necessary, but a some point you need to make a move based on sound research, drive, and you guessed it, passion. Life goes by fast; make a move in one direction or the other.



Idleness is such a waste of your time. What’s the worst that can happen, you fail? I would rather take a chance and fail than sit safely on the porch. Failure is sometimes the best teacher, and failure is a much better option than living a stagnant life.
