Now is the time
Sent by Jonathan Stark on April 8th, 2020
Picture a date in the future. A point at which things have settled down. Not back to normal, but back to good.
Maybe for you that date is August 1st. Or October 1st. Or December 1st.
Whatever date you think it might be, there’s going to be a point in time when everyone looks back on this period of craziness.
In the cold light of hindsight, how will your actions be viewed?
How will your clients and friends and family judge your response to this crisis?
Do you want to be someone who closes down and hordes and worries about yourself?
Or do you want to be someone who leads and is vulnerable and helps the others?
This crisis isn’t going to last forever, but lots of indelible memories will be made in a very short period of time.
How do you want to be remembered?
Now is the time to decide.
Yours,
—J
