Guardrails

Don’t let it be a question of your capability; you’re capable of lots of things.

What do you do? What do you not do? What are the guardrails?

In business. In volunteering. In personal practices. In relationships.

Without guardrails, we’re seen through the lens of our capabilities. And what we’re capable of doing isn’t necessarily what we should be doing, or even what we want to be doing.

The principle is to find the overlay between our capabilities and the journey we intend to travel.

It’s a powerful shift to move from, “I could do all these different things,” to, “Among all the things I’m capable of doing, this is what I’m choosing to do.”
