Carla A. Harris in her book Expect to Win: 10 Proven Strategies for Thriving in the Workplace, quotes former CEO of eBay, Meg Whitman, who stated, "The price of inaction is greater than the cost of making a mistake." (p. 137, e-book version)

Reflection/Call to Action

Where are you "conveniently" stuck in addressing an important (leadership) decision? What is it about the potential outcome(s) that is causing stuckness? Which of your strengths or values have become an agent of sabotage in this situation? Where is the fuel coming from that is energizing the sabotaging? When you engaged the SSV (sabotage shutoff valve) in the past, which strength(s) or value(s) propelled that action? How did you feel afterwards? What move are you willing to take today to refresh that feeling?
