The Single Reason You Should Stop Looking for “Solutions”

I got (verbally) punched in the face yesterday. It was a real haymaker of words. It was a business coaching call and my coach offered a quote that did all the violence. It goes like this:

“There are no solutions in life; only trade-offs.”

Well, that’s a stinger! I would imagine you can relate to this feeling I have that there is a way to figure it out. I often assume there is a magical way through life where you “win” and this perspective shift towards trade-offs feels soberingly true. 

It’s not all bad, either. Now, when you think of what you want, just know you can likely get it if you acknowledge what you’ll have to give up to get it. 

Carry on.
