Tons of fruit to pick. It was a massive undertaking. But, by getting momentum with the low-hanging fruit and then next lowest we were 50% done. Then, we brought the project to life by getting to 75% complete. Finally, the top of the tree was all that remained. And it needs to be picked.
The student’s paper is nothing without diction, voice and tone. The traveler’s suitcase is worthless without her toiletries. The weight-loss seeker’s Vitamix is just an expensive decoration if it sits idle.
It’s easy to forget the reason you started. And it’s easy to be satisfied with simply having started. Or being almost done. That’s sort of reverse-low hanging fruit. And now your brain is really messing with you.
Remember, it often takes the most strategy to finish the job.
And, the fruit at the top is high. You really have to push. But getting it all is the reason you started.
