An Excuse or a Why
“One person’s excuse will be another person’s why.
We all can find excuses, but we can also choose to turn our
obstacles into opportunities.
Excuse:
One person might say, ‘I don’t
have enough time or money
to do this business,’ so they’ll
just walk away from it.
Why:
Another person might say,
‘I don’t have enough time
to enjoy my life and I don’t
have enough money to pay
my bills, so that’s why I need
this business.’
As a leader, I try to help people see that their excuses could
actually be the reason that they need to jump in and do this.”
