Every so often,
I put a plastic bag on my hand,
carry another one
and pick up the garbage
around our block.
Because someone
has to do it.
No one wants
to do this,
of course,
including myself.
It is dirty,
isn’t glamorous,
isn’t something
I can impress friends
with,
but it has to be done.
I would bet big money
there is a task
right now
in your business
that no one wants
to do either.
It has to be done.
But you’re delaying doing it.
Others are delaying doing it.
Do it.
Today.
Either pay someone
to do it
or do it yourself.
Then do something
fun
for the business,
for yourself,
to celebrate.
Pick up the garbage.
