Trust Your Gut. It Works. Really.

TrustYourGut
Are you quick to make a decision?

On a daily basis, I pick up the phone and go to toe-to-toe with the industry’s best to talk technology and information security.  I have to think on my feet and engage quickly with the next question to find the perfect fit.  Sometimes these conversations lead to a surprising opportunity, where I need to decide in real-time if it’s something worth my client’s time and resources.

As a result, I’m learning to rely more and more on my gut than on analysis. My tried and true pros-and-cons approach doesn’t always account for the unknown:  an opportunity of great value that evolves through dialogue.

Tackling tasks that I’m unsure of no longer frightens me.  And at the end of day, I feel empowered – like I actually changed someone’s mind or found something no one else thought of.

Take it from me: Next time you find yourself holding back – take that leap of faith. You might surprise yourself and find something new, exciting and valuable.
