The voice of doubt.

Last week, I asserted that visionaries are in a perpetual state of motion, their gears continually grinding, their wheels always turning.

It sounds good but if we're being honest, it's quite a lofty statement.

It wreaks of the kind of rhetoric that oozes out of the believe-and-you-shall-achieve type of motivational speakers.

I can see your noses turning up at the smell of it. And rightly so, it's detestable.

Visionaries are humans, not mechanical watches! And to believe that we can just go on and on and on is not only inconsistent with reality but not even remotely desirable.

This is the voice of doubt.

We all know it well because we've all heard it a thousand times.

Look how easily we can deceive ourselves, relieving ourselves of the burden of our design.

Of course you will wear and tear and break down, of course you pale in comparison to your vision.

Good thing it only depends on you getting out of the way.

Talk soon,
