Everybody's got a different superpower. “It’s easier to do what you know. No matter how wrong it is.” Sounds like a bad t-shirt doesn't it! Haha. Jon, thanks,

"It’s easier to do what you know. No matter how wrong it is." really liked that one :) Excellent post, as always!

That's good. It's one of those things they don't teach in school. It just comes with experience. It's too easy to not want to deal with a problem that's not right in front of you when there are plenty of others that are. The really hard part is convincing everyone else that you're not crazy! haha Hey Anthony.

But I don’t know what it is. Or how to fix it”. Investigate it anyway. Talk to people. Get input." So true. I've made the mistake before. Something didn't feel right, but it didn't jump out at me. So I just did nothing. It didn't take long to find out why something didn't feel right.......... Now I always "investigate" when something seems a little off. “It’s a hard sell to say “Hey, there’s something wrong. But I don’t know what it is. Or how to fix it”. Investigate it anyway.
