Let me Ass you a Question 🐴 ❓

Have you ever been so focused on a mission or purpose that you can only see the end in site? Your blinders are on, you only see the finish line.

Maybe you’re making a video game, and you’re building the last line of code for the final level. Maybe it’s the fourth quarter of a football game and you’re the quarterback and you’re driving down the field to score the winning touchdown.

Then all of a sudden you get a distraction. Maybe it’s a phone call, maybe it’s a notification from your bank, maybe it’s a siren outside of your workspace, maybe it’s a phone call from an ex lover.

Do you stop building the roof? It’s mostly done, it won’t leak…that much. Do you stop coding the game? Imagine Super Mario Bros. without the boss, Bowser! Picture a quarterback that walks off the field on the final drive because he wants to talk to a cheerleader. Good luck winning the game with only 10 players.
