Every step forward requires a firmly planted foot in the past.

“Every step forward requires a firmly planted foot in the past.”

As a trail runner I know this is not true.

We can dance over obstacles without every making firm contact.

In business and in life we can do the same.  When a step we take turns out to be unstable there is a choice we must make- Will I stumble and fall.  Or, will I continue on and not falter.

Sometimes a firmly planted foot is not the best practice.
