Stay in your lane usually has a negative connotation, but I find it to be incredibly helpful at times.
Yes, its important to get out of your comfort zone, listen to feedback, and grow.
But there is something powerful and profound when someone says: “This is what I believe, and I’m willing to die for it.”
Once we make our claim and dig our feet into the sand, it seems the waves of life hit extra hard, and the ground is swept from under our feet.
Yet, slowly over time, the tides change.
The sand that was moving away from you and rocking your stance is now coming back, and building a wall of support and help around your (once) crazy ideas.
The world likes to laugh at new ideas, the problems we recognize that the general population haven’t noticed, the solutions we develop that aren’t needed.
Until one day, maybe a few years from now, those same crazy, rejected ideas become “common sense.”
