#186 Cul-de-sac
Nov 14, 2019
Seth Godin describes a cul-de-sac, in his book The Dip, as a place where “you work and you work and you work and nothing much changes”. For me that was around 4 years ago. I went into business because I couldn’t find work and was trying to figure out what I could teach. Recently divorced, I wrote a book on dating and held some workshops on meeting someone new.
My heart wasn’t in it at all. It didn’t go anywhere. There’s no comparison between the passion I have for the work that I do now and how I felt back then. I was in a different space – a cul-de-sac. It was a waste of time and money – we can’t undo it. Next time, walk away sooner – Thanks Seth for reminding me.
