Put down the marketing plan and walk away slowly. It’ll be alright. I know. You have a tough job ahead of you. It’s called killing your inner control freak. I have the same issue.
To which I would add… chance favors the prepared mind.
I appreciate the brash enthusiasm, but coming coming from someone with years of marketing experience under her belt, it seems odd that Tara would turn around and embrace her inner amateur.
We’re only this good because we have experience. The difference between us and the dinosaurs is we can learn from our experiences and transfer the knowledge and instincts we’ve gained to a new playing field.
We look up and say “hey, nice light show.. how can we turn this to our advantage.” The dinosaurs look up and say “hrmph.. meteors… it’s a fad.”
Or as an boss of mine once said “God grant me the freedom of a tightly constructed plan.”
