A guy in line at the hardware store in Dayton said my "just get it done" rule was the problem, now I can't decide if he's right
Was in line at the hardware store in Dayton 4 days ago and got to talking with an older guy about how we both run our own shops. He asked how many jobs I turn down a month and I said none, I just squeeze them in. He said, "That's not hustle, that's fear." Hit me weird because I always thought saying yes to every job was the smart move. Now I'm stuck between two ideas: saying yes keeps food on the table, and saying yes is why I'm working till 9pm every Friday. Side A thinks a full schedule means you made it. Side B thinks picking 3 jobs a week over 5 means you actually finish them right. Which side are you on and why?
