Philippe Delamare posted this last week and I have been meaning to put it up as a superb case study. For sailing. For business. For life.

“Let me explain: we all start with a strategy, a roadmap, a certain level of aggression versus a degree of caution, ambition, a vision of what we came for. It’s really great to have tons of messages of support, words of encouragement, signs of friendship. But they are often also opinions, advice, especially caution and safety. Paradoxically, all of this can become anxiety-inducing – discreetly – which is very bad of course, and can influence you or make you lose sight of the direction of your initial energy.”
