It’s time to lay your cards on the table and show the world the strategic hand you are about to play. Don’t waste any time waiting for a pat on the back, I know it’s a good hand and you deserve some praise for being clever, but you still have some work to do. Remember that you are competing with people who are just as accomplished as you are. Kenny Rogers’ had it right in his song the Gambler when he said, “You got to know when to show ’em, and know when to fold ’em”. Keep that in mind as you play your hand. Take a risk, but have a sound strategy to back it up. In the end, there is only going to be one winner. Will it be you?

Spinning your wheels can be tiresome – no one wants to put a lot of work into something that they never gain a reward for. You are in danger of not reaching the completion stage – but, it’s not from lack of effort. If you are working with others, make sure everyone understands their piece of the puzzle. You will only be able to get something accomplished if everyone is on board and has a clearly defined role in the project. Try and work together, not against each other. Sometimes a strong project manager can add the necessary leadership, at other times the manager is the problem! Just do the best you can. Sometimes there is strength in numbers, at other times you will want to go it alone. That’s ok! Maybe the project needs to be broken down into manageable sections where people can work independently.
