Let Go When That Important Thing...
Let go when? Let go when that important thing is no longer important. It had your attention. It had your passion. It had your interest. But it's time is past.
That way you used to handle a process...outdated. That person who once listened to you...gone. That project that promised a miracle finish only to flounder in an obsolete mess. Let it all go.
Just because something was once important doesn't mean that it is any longer.
Let it go.
Centered problems solvers understand when it is time to let go...and then do.
