Took a road trip today…🚗
…and I was in the driver’s seat. I was asked if I could grab a bag of chips from the backseat. I contorted my arm out of socket to reach back, flailed around, and snagged the chips.
What if I had lost control of the vehicle?
What if someone cut me off before I could grab the wheel again?
All this to be a people pleaser.
Now what about your clients?
You’re in the driver’s seat and your passenger, your client, asks for something - Something you know they can do themselves.
Do you put yourself and the entire project in danger just to reach for some chips in the backseat?
Stop the people pleasing and drive the damn car.
