Sounds crazy

If it’s legal, and doesn’t hurt anyone, and gets the job done, go for it. Ambition, innovation, and creativity often appear crazy at first, until the amazing results come in.

Achievement is the result of finding a way to do what must be done. That often means acting in ways that are unconventional, inconvenient, embarrassing, or mind-numbingly tedious.

Yet the objective is to get from point A to point B. And if that involves a little discomfort, so what?

Elegant solutions are impressive and glamorous. Yet you often don’t have the luxury of an elegant, straightforward approach.

That’s when it’s time to get creative. That’s when you must focus on the desired result and then piece together the twisting, awkward, yet workable path to get you there.

When it sounds crazy and yet it works well, go with crazy. One way or another, you can get it done.
