"The only bad outreach attempt is the attempt you never make."
Sometimes the actions we DON'T take come from trying to craft the perfect message, the perfect email, the perfect narrative, the perfect discovery or call the perfect proposal.
Striving for perfection is great — but not if it is detrimental to your goals.
Understand the power of taking action.
