Coping vs. Recovery: The Runner’s Dilemma
Here’s the truth: you can’t out-limp a flawed plan. Coping strategies may keep you afloat this year, but they won’t get you closer to the growth you’re dreaming of. Worse, they might leave you burned out, overworked, and wondering why your business feels stuck in the same place year after year.
Recovery, on the other hand, requires courage. It means pausing to evaluate what’s working and what’s not. It’s letting go of the fear that stopping means falling behind. It’s trusting that taking time to fix the root problems now will allow you to run farther, faster, and with more ease in the long term.
