Every crew has a person who says “we should do something.” Be the one who says “Saturday, 2 p.m., I’ll bring the ball.”

LEADERSHIP

WHAT THIS MEANS

Enthusiasm without a time attached is just conversation, and most good intentions die in that gap. Specificity converts a shared wish into an event: a day, an hour, a place, and one person who has committed to being there. It is not a talent. It is a willingness to be the one who might have picked wrong.

Take the thing your group has been saying you should do and send the details today. Include a time and a meeting point. Some people will not come, which is fine, because the event now exists and the next one is easier.
