Waymarks: Trust

When driving or creating something new; sometimes I can't see the future. I don't always know where I'm headed, but the chances are strong that there's someone out there who's driven down this road before.

When driving or creating something new; sometimes I can't see the future. I don't always know where I'm headed, but the chances are strong that there's someone out there who's driven down this road before.

Every meaningful thing we do (love, work, art, parenting, building) is exactly this: steering full speed toward a future that hasn’t shown its face yet, guided only by faint evidence that someone else made it through the dark before us.

This week, pick the one scary thing you've been delaying because you can’t see the outcome and find one person who’s already done it. Let their taillights be your proof and take the next step at full speed.
