Make things better by making better things.
“Never give up” is embedded deep in our culture. It’s easy to reward the person who is always moving forward—who starts but never finishes.

Waiting, thinking, pondering…creates tension. Most of us want that tension to go away as soon as possible. So, rather than sitting with it, we move forward to get away from it.
Always moving forward is another form of hiding. A way to fit in.
