“The cucumber is bitter? Then throw it out.

There are brambles in the path? Then go around.

That’s all you need to know.”

Marcus Aurelius

Action is always required. Period. Full stop.  

When something isn’t right, then the right thing to do is to take action. Perhaps the right next move is to step back and understand the situation, determine a suitable course of action, and then act. But the solution always involves taking action.  

There are 364 days left in 2021, what action are you taking today to make sure your path forward is clear of brambles?
