I’m a big believer that
buffers are where the truly exciting opportunities lie.
Have a bit of a financial buffer?
Then you can invest in that bit of marketing
that will pay off big, sure,
but only in a year.
Are your projects ahead of schedule?
Then you can take on that high profile,
executive fast track assignment
everyone else would kill for but
doesn’t have time for.
So whatever spare moment/dollar/resource I have,
I use it to build buffer,
creating space for those future opportunities.
