That bright, BEAUTIFUL shiny object can be so hard to resist. It’s similar to the comparisonitis that can quickly consume our well-intended plan of action. I agree; knowing your goals and where you want to land is a powerful guide. Thank you for sharing your pearls of wisdom and helping others along the way.

In reply to Lisa Hutchison. I've been there and done that too, Lisa. With time we know what we need and FOMO disappears.

In reply to Barbara Parcells. I agree Barb. Keeping the end in mind is important and might just make that shiny object viable if one has a strategy.

Knowing where you want to end up is essential in any journey. How you get there depends on answering that question first.

I think we all go through the shiny object syndrome. As with most things in life we learn through experience as we become more confident, wise and aware of what we need and don’t need to succeed.
