One of my writing buddies
chases every trend
going.
Every couple months,
she has switched focus.
She is so busy
reacting
to changes in the market;
she has lost all sight
of what her own vision
for that market is.
Seth Godin
has a great post
about all of the possible reasons
why your project failed.
One of them
is
“It’s likely that
you’re being reactive,
doing what the market tells you
instead of bending the market
in the direction
you want it to go”
If you’re constantly reacting,
you’re allowing other people
and other entities
to decide
what your business,
what your impact on the world
will be.
Choose what you react to.
Stay true to your vision
otherwise.
