How Far Do You Go?

One constant stressor that’s plagued me all year is the worry that my strategy may not be the best path to success. Every time a song underperforms, every day we don’t grow noticeably, every time I check my bank account… it’s followed by a quick bout of anxiety and a fear that I’m wrong - that my plan is fundamentally flawed or the quality of the product is less than what I see it as. Then I wonder, how far do I go?

The answer is all the way to the end. At least I had a plan. That’s more than we’ve ever had. And now we’re acting on that plan. It’s hard to remember that you can’t make an accurate assessment until you’ve actually completed your task. So I have five more months of worrying I might be wrong, meditating on it, and plowing through it anyway before I can truly find out if there was something to it.
