If we keep doing what we're doing, we're going to keep getting what we're getting.

Seek clarity

Be clear about your intentions and they’re more likely to fulfill your expectations. Be clear about your challenges and you’ll find workable ways through them.

Clarity adds value to any situation. Clarity makes opportunities more attainable and difficulties more manageable.

Clarity doesn’t just automatically arrive on its own. You must do the work to bring truthful details into focus.

When something isn’t entirely and specifically clear, ask questions. If the questions lead to more questions, ask and work to find the answers to those.

Don’t just make assumptions when it’s possible to get clear answers. Know as much as possible before you act, before you commit, and you’ll create better outcomes.

The details matter, and with clarity you can line up all those details to produce valuable results. Seek maximum clarity, and create maximum effectiveness.

— Ralph Marston
