They want you to lead.

i guess?

Make a choice.

really?

Make it happen.

You sure?

Yes.

Ok. I’m doing this, who’s with me?

It doesn’t matter whether you’re offering to add a couple of eggs for your daughter’s lunch or beginning a new enterprise. They need someone to say:

I’m going in this direction, let’s go!

They said they were with you. Every time you turn around they’re there!

They’ll trust your judgement because you listen to them.

Now?

Listen to them.

We want you to lead.

(that’s what they keep saying)

You’ve got this.

Yes. You have no idea of what you’re doing or getting into.

You’ve screwed up before.

You’re not so idiotic to think that this time things will go perfectly.

Ideal.

Now go.
