Be careful of the ships you sail!

We often enter into ships being it relation, business or friend, without giving great detail to the person that we’ve entered into these ships with. Before becoming wooed by the exterior factor or simply by someone’s ability to speak well of themselves, we should take the time it takes to get to the most vital parts that really matter; Is this ship going in the direction in which I am trying to go and when does it plan to arrive there!

Sometimes we are afraid to take certain journeys alone, and it often leaves us in a situation of becoming magnets. The problem with that is attracting those that don’t necessarily compliment us or our business and it’s not that they’re not attractive, (they’re usually very attractive in one way or another) but it leaves us finding ourselves being split in direction. Therefore we cannot reach an ultimate goal together. So why do we continue trying to move forward with someone who have the need to turn at this point or may need to make frequent pit stops when you have no need to? We learn this early on usually upon boarding the ship, that we’ve boarded the wrong one. At this point, the normal thing to do would be to turn around and exit the ship.

The sooner you exit, the fewer corrections you will have to make. Otherwise, you will find yourself years later looking back at a total wasted journey, with no idea how to correct it.

Don’t allow yourself to be so caught up on having boarded a ship just because it’s a ship. Make it intentional and deliberate!
