Change before you have to. – Jack Welch

We’ve all heard the story of someone who had to make extreme changes because they had to.

The heart attack patient that has to make drastic life changes in order to stay alive.

The husband who has to make big sacrifices at work now after not paying enough attention to his family all those years.

The retiree who has to make difficult decisions now because of a lack of forethought when they were younger.

Cautionary tales, to be sure.

I’ve also heard this idea phrased as choose your hard.

It’s hard to eat right and exercise, but it’s also hard to live chronic health problems.

It’s hard to balance work and family, but it’s harder to come back from a life out of balance.

It’s hard to budget and plan out our money, but it’s harder to live on less because you have to.

Make it a great day.

Jake
