When we got home to Arkansas a couple weeks ago, the power company trimmed the trees under the power lines. Small trees cut and laying on the ground, branches trimmed and laying everywhere. My first reaction was frustration — it looked messy and careless.
But the truth is, those trees were a hazard. The trimming was necessary. In business and life, there are times we have to let go of things that are growing in the wrong direction — products, clients, team members, habits — even when it feels disruptive in the moment. You deserve not to settle for what’s merely tolerable when something better is possible. Don’t let fear of the mess stop you from making necessary cuts.
