Toe in the water or jump right in?

A past colleague once said "its a bit like housework - it gets messy before it gets better"!

I was reflecting on that as I started an office tidy up, filing and organising session. I was thinking I just had to do the "pile of paperwork" - when really what I needed was to adopt a new filing system and move some of the the furniture around!

It got messy, lots had to be done before it looked better!  Ah, HUGE reward -  the payoff for jumping right in ( well after many months of looking at the pile of paper!).

Is there something you're tackling in a half hearted way?  

What is it? Is there an area of your life or leadership that requires more than a toe in the water? 

Have you dabbled, struggled on, had a few false starts?!  Maybe now is the right to jump right in?  With commitment?   Create the change you desire.
