In the Long Run We Are All Dead #

John Maynard Keynes said so in 1923, and it still resonates today. We're all temporary visitors on this planet, with limited time to make our mark.

Too many leaders postpone the important for the urgent, the meaningful for the convenient. They kick decisions down the road, avoid difficult conversations, and push transformative changes to some mythical "better time" that never arrives.

Great leaders understand the fierce urgency of now. They recognize that waiting for perfect conditions is a fool's game. They know that while patience has its place, procrastination dressed as strategic patience is just cowardice wearing a suit.

Your team needs you to be decisive today. Your organization needs your courage now. The world needs your contributions in this moment—not in some indefinite future that may never come.

Make the call.

Have the conversation.

Implement the change.

Take the risk.

Because in the end, your legacy won't be built on what you planned to do tomorrow, but on what you had the courage to do today.
