The first line of this awesome book by Jim Collins is “Good is the enemy of great”
✔ I ate grilled chicken and passed on the sweet tea for lunch. Pretty good.
❌ I’ll have the bowl of spicy nacho Doritos tonight. My diet is not getting to great.
✔I worked out on Tuesday – good
❌I was lazy on Wednesday and Thursday. My fitness is not getting to great.
When it comes to financial planning…
✔ I am contributing to my 401k. Good.
????Am I taking advantage of all my plans options and do I know what I own and how it fits into my picture?
✔I have life insurance to replace my income if I die. Good
????What if I live and can’t work?
There are aspects of the plan that are good … and that is the ENEMY.
