Starting is never enough

Seth Godin would exhort us to “do something”, to make a ruckus, to innovate, etc. Each one of his blog posts is a kick where you know.

While I wholeheartedly agree, I still think that it’s not enough.

We need to persist.That’s hard. Even harder than to start.

We sometimes don’t even start because we are lazy, but because we have to commit.

Here comes the big, frightening term:

Follow-through.

That is what fear is. Not only failure in a vague sense. Failure to follow through.
