Occasionally, idea generation can be a bottleneck. In particular, “out of the box” ideas.
With some practice though, we find even radical ideas are cheap (kind of like goals…) and abundant.
The critical step very quickly becomes action – the work to put the idea in motion.
Even when our emotional landscape isn’t optimal, it turns out that even the smallest step forward can be powerful.
To have the goal of running the marathon is great. To take the first steps at the starting line, even when it’s raining, is the tough part.
The work isn’t in coming up with a new goal or idea, the work is getting on the court and playing the game knowing that we may not feel like it.
