“Had I known from the outset how challenging it was going to be, I probably wouldn’t have gotten started. And yet, I’d do it again.”
I’ve heard something along these lines from many leaders, innovators, entrepreneurs, intrapreneurs, business builders, and trail blazers reflecting on their progress and learnings.
I can only imagine how many transformational endeavours would never have come to be had those behind them known what they were really getting into in the first place.
Sometimes what you don’t know can help give you the confidence to tackle challenging things that you might not have if you had greater awareness of the bigger picture of what you’re getting yourself into.
